		<description>I guess that many so-called intellectuals do not  possess clear perception and common sense.  Maybe they try too hard.  Perhaps they should just relax a little and allow themselves to see what&#039;s in front of their own noses.

Sorry you&#039;re disappointed David -- coulda told ya&#039;....</description>

		<description>Strawberry, I&#039;m so sorry to have impacted upon your sex life for several weeks, that was surely not my intent. I was merely trying to describe how Obama&#039;s &quot;rear&quot; echalon (the MSM) may be getting tired of bending over backward in their hope to cover for the man that seduced them, butt are still reluctant to cry out that they&#039;ve been sodomized. I think it&#039;s a hard thing for them to swallow.</description>

		<description>Cynic, you only feel depress because none of the money that Obama is handing out is going to land on your lap. 

Why don&#039;t you hire two or three engineers and rent a space in a strip mall and begin to send out to Obama some bids on some of those projects he is handing out? Why not do that? Why?

Why don&#039;t you start a community organization to train people how to recycle all of the house recyclable waste and how to collect recyclable waste laying out on the streets and bring it to a recyclable waste facility? 

How do you do that, you ask? You start by leasing with a 5 year lease a space in a strip mall and then hiring 10 management assistants or project managers and after training them for 6 weeks let them loose in the community. 

Why is it that you can&#039;t do that? Why?</description>

		<description>I wasn&#039;t saying &lt;strong&gt;A&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;em&gt;because of&lt;/em&gt; &lt;strong&gt;B&lt;/strong&gt; up there.  I was saying we&#039;ve got A.  And then we&#039;ve got B, which has limited our available responses to A.  

If we decide we&#039;ve got to spend to effectively deal with &lt;strong&gt;A&lt;/strong&gt;--a pretty widely accepted theory--it&#039;s necessarily going involve a lot of deficit spending &lt;em&gt;on top of a regular operating budget &lt;/em&gt;that &lt;em&gt;already&lt;/em&gt; involved a thumping big deficit.  

If instead we cut taxes--rate cuts, a payroll withholding suspension, etc--we&#039;d be gambling that this would result in enough new spending to act as the stimulus.  We&#039;d be indirectly bumping up the deficit again by slashing government tax revenues--presumably including FICA and Medicare taxes.  We&#039;d probably have to kick out the props holding up some vital industries, some big banks, etc.  I don&#039;t know if other spending could be draconian enough to make up the shortfall.  We&#039;d likely have to go after defense spending, infrastructure maintenance, health care programs--&lt;em&gt;everything&lt;/em&gt;, across the board.  Maybe we should be thinking about it.   

Whatever one&#039;s recovery theory is, the reality of the problem is almost too damn depressing to contemplate.  It sure as hell depresses &lt;em&gt;me&lt;/em&gt;.</description>

		<description>Why oh why do you say he&#039;s a bloody socialist?  He&#039;s not.  The Raytheon lobbyist as Dep. sec. of Defence.  His vote on Fisa, the Patriot Act vote, the four permanent bases in Iraq. The 50,000 troops there, the handouts to big business, (ok so it&#039;s Raytheon not Halliburton, Pepsi vs. Coke)  He is not a liberal.  I am a liberal.  He is a corperate puppet just like Bush.</description>

		<description>Andy, I wrote a long note to Peggy Sue, and her comments about Paula&#039;s show last night, but it got lost in internet world.  Wasn&#039;t that guy from Newsweek disgusting?  Clueless is a better word.  He knew nothing about the caucus fraud, or the DNC&#039;s actions, nor did he mention that Clinton actually got more votes than Obama.  He also had the nerve to question her experience.  Excuse me.  What was Obama&#039;s experience?  I swear, I will never buy a copy of Newsweek, as long as people like him, are the editors.  What a jerk.</description>

		<description>With each new pronouncement, each new plan from this administration, the markets tank.  There used to be talk not so long ago that the DOW may sink to 7000!  We&#039;ve already surpassed that and now there&#039;s talk that it may sink to 5000.  

The Obama fan club talks out of both sides of their mouths -- from one side they say he&#039;s done SO much just in his first month; from the other side they continue to place blame entirely on the past for the dire straits we&#039;re in right now.  They want it both ways.

So now the fawning pundits are starting to cover their asses because the handwriting&#039;s on the [Wall Street].  Peggy Noonan criticized McCain because she thought he lacked vision.  And it&#039;s precisely Obama&#039;s vision that&#039;s scaring the hell out of the markets.

Tonight I heard Brian Williams talk about how high the POTUS&#039; approval ratings were in spite of &quot;all the bad news&quot; he&#039;s had to deliver to the American people.  BAD NEWS?????  WTF????  The guy&#039;s been a socialist Santa Claus.</description>

		<description>Barack Obama not who &quot;we&quot; thought he was???

Welcome to sobriety asshat.  We have been telling you for 2 years he is a socialist jerk that hasn&#039;t had an original thought in his entire life. 

Good morning America the hangover is going to last for 4 years.  Hope your 401K does.

BTW the reason the DOW is crashing like a lead baloon is that all incentive for you and me to invest in the market is gone&gt;

All our profit will be taken and we annot get preferred stock like Uncle Sam so we derive no benefit from investing and will actually lose more money by investing.

Stupid DEMs and there tax stock revenue only rich folks get those.  I have never earned over 30K in my working life but now they have insured I cannot dare.

Thanks</description>

		<description>PeggySue, I just got done listening to Paula&#039;s show with the editor from Newsweek.  For somebody who is supposed to be in the &quot;know&quot;, he doesn&#039;t know a whole hell of alot.  I got so angry listening to his excuses for Obama&#039;s behavior and at the same time, bashing Hillary for her lack of experience.  Paula, I know it is your show, and he&#039;s a hot shot, but I wish you would have asked him, &quot;what the hell is Obama&#039;s experience?&quot;  God, he was an idiot.  Totally clueless, and could care less to look into the issues of caucus fraud. I will never buy a copy of Newsweek, as long as the idiot is the editor. My dream is to one day see all this crap, all the wrong doing that was done by Obama, the DNC, and the complicit media, that was conviently swept under the rug,  on the front page of every newspaper in the country.</description>

		<description>I&#039;ve never liked Kathleen Parker. Some of the things she says make her look dumber than a box of rocks. She was right in there on the bashing of Sarah Palin and twisting things she said around. Reminded me of a jealous high school girl. Pfft. Like I said in the primaries there is going to be backlash from the Republican party voters for what these so called Conservatives did to McCain and Palin. It&#039;s coming.

I don&#039;t know what kind of drugs Buckley was on, he never even tried to be objective.

Great article Larry.</description>

		<description>Well, for what is worth, I can add a clown to the list of morons: i.e. David Gergen:

http://ac360.blogs.cnn.com/2009/03/03/obama-a-course-correction-needed/

These guys are so intellectually dishonest that&#039;s repulsive. The only reason they are starting to complain now is b/c they (as in themselves their own 401, etc)
are losing tons of $$.

As soon as the markets stabilize they&#039;ll forget about the debt and will start drooling at Obama again....

Ugh...they are disgusting; just like Evan Thomas last night.</description>

		<description>Don&#039;t worry. The clothes will get better. Remember the fashion bombs Princess Di started out with? It&#039;s not that hard to learn if you have a billion consultants around you. Unfortunately, that won&#039;t solve all the other problems in the White House.</description>
