You know what? I lived in West Texas throughout the 80s. But, I am not going to lower myself to making asinine statements about the entire state - even based upon my OWN, ACTUAL experiences in the state.

It's scary that you teach kids, and then behave like one on a message board. You're constantly telling others to grow up - heal thyself.

I hope the fake laughter helps you feel better about your own situation. I really do. *teardrop*

Actually, bright bulb, I voted Barkley (our 3rd party candidate), because I refused to vote either Coleman or Franken. And no, I wasn't fooled into voting for Jesse, like so many others were, when he promised to take our state's rainy day fund and hand it out to everyone. I think it's also imprtant to point out that Jessie is Reform party, not Democrat. I vote independent when possible -- I like to kick both dem and repub incumbents to the curb.

Why, why can't you at least choose some facts when you're bored and decide to cry on a message board because the majority of the country has ruined what would have been paradise on earth if only everyone had listened to you and you genious plans that were encompassed and put forth by the rightous Palin/McCain team (reverse candidates in the event of a nutjob Obama supporter spouting idiot statements based on no fact). For real, wtf is wrong with people like you (directed to OP and people with likewise posts fyi)?

The dow dropped 400 pts today because the treasury finally said they're not going to buy all the securitized bad debt aka toxic motgages. This was sort of pricing itself into the market because most people with knowledge of securitized debt knew it would take days maybe months to figure out all the poeple that own 1 part of a bad mortgage. However, some people were still holding out hope that it would happen. Today the Feds finished off that hope, and the market finished adjusting to it. Now I know there are a lot of long hard words in those sentences, but do yourself a favor, look them up, and get informed. The reasons for the drop the few days prior have already been listed. Circuit City wasn't raking in the dough till Nov 4 when the election year depression fairy came and took it all away... for real, wtf goes on in the heads of people like this.

THIS is the pathetic side of the average American. Not because everyone has different opinions. It makes us stronger. But because so many people are so lazy that they choose not to get educated before spouting out some ill-informed opinion (or outright lie) as fact.

EDIT: Half your post was in the subject line!! Witty!! I'm not going to go searching for posts from a person who puts up as blatently uninformed garbage as the first post.

Now go read up on repackaged securitized debt before spewing forth nonsense again.
