'Oh man, forget Iceland, looks like Pakistan, you know, the country with the nukes and probably Osama Bin Laden's cave in it, is about to go into insolvency...'
If we actually had control of the econimic crisis in the US, it would be a great way to control the bancruptsy of other nations. if the US is the last nation with our heads above the water, does that put us in a power position?

I'm trying to gauge whether or not running down Main Street, waving my arms over my head and screaming like a loon, is an appropriate reaction right now...
I'm thinking: Yes. Yes, it is.

"At what point do we call the tactics of John McCain and Sarah Palin for what they are? Hate mongering.
As both McCain and Palin continue their Swift Boat campaign, using innuendo, half truths and outright lies against Barack Obama, their crowds are looking more like mobs than political supporters. A McCain rant is greeted with someone shouting "terrorist," Palin's vicious rhetoric has someone screaming "kill him," while others taunt reporters, complete with racial ephitets, and now today:
In the latest instance of inflammatory outbursts at McCain-Palin rallies, a crowd member screamed "treason!" during an event on Tuesday after Sarah Palin accused Barack Obama of criticizing U.S. troops.
In every case, McCain and Palin ignored the hate that they were whipping up. And why wouldn't they? After all, that's the whole point. The only thing they have left to run on is fear and hate."

Anybody know how soon the next debate starts airing?

McCain, just like Bush:
"Constantly under the watchful eyes of security, the media wasn't permitted to wander around inside Coachman Park to talk to Sarah Palin supporters. When reporters tried to leave the designated press area and head toward the bleachers where the crowd was seated, an escort would dart out of nowhere and confront him or her and say, "Can I help you?'' and turn the person around."

Hmmm..let's see...Bush gave us "Free Speech Zones" and tried to limit this first amendment freedomas much as possible. McCain continues the trend...

Apperently the Republicans consider me "shadowy" and "suspect":
http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp…
"The Republican National Committee wants the Federal Election Commission to investigate the source of thousands of small contributions to the presidential campaign of Sen. Barack Obama, a committee lawyer said yesterday. "
I hate these fascist fuckwads who have to cheat at every level and turn everything they touch to shit.
- Don't be such a drama queen TBO. They're talking about specific shady contributions. Not the $2 you sent in. :Ptommyo
