A rising tide leads to frantic behavior in those who can't swim.
Obama saves the world is catchy. Would make a great O. Stone movie. If there is still enough money left over of course to make one. Or any movie theaters to play them. I tried to wait it out. I'm getting nothing from Obama but utter hypocrisy at every step. Am I suppose to just sit idle while I watch our great nation be destroyed. You guys were extremely loud over Bush and rightfully so on many things. Don't take the republican stance during the past 8 years. Request Obama figure out what he doing and conveys confidence in the markets. Clinto had a good boom because he understood that.

"Conservatives are probably the most unorganized, unrallied bunch out there."
Really?
Compared to the fractionalized Democrats....the GOP seems positively streamlined and businesslike in their shark like efficiency.
The liberals have it easier because their followers are very like-minded. They're more lock-step with their party. Big government, much government spending, punish the successful and reward those who are seen as some kind of victim, abortion, and so on.
With Conservatives there are many more varieties, more independent thinking. Some lean libertarian, they want little government, some are more social conservatives who believe in morality. Some want big government, they want it in another direction.
Yeah, is very unfortunate. I guess it is easy to criticize when being a minority. If only they had "organize" during the bush years we wouldn't be in this mess.
The only ones who have weathered this man-made storm of the past 8 years are the war profiteers and oil industry.
I'd be curious to see if you know how much Exxon made this past year. And then how much the government made off of Exxon. The real theft and the real profiteer is not who you say it is.
I'd also be curious to see if you know what percent of the world's oil holdings is owned by the likes of Exxon and Shell. And what percent of their income actually comes from the sale of oil.

Would you? Yes, I do know how much Exxon made last year, the most EVER for a United States corporate entity in one calendar year.
What was that about profiteering again? And please explain the $4.00 a gallon gasoline to me. What caused that price hike?
Got a 401(k)? You own Exxon! Belong to a pension? You own Exxon! WTF are you people crying about? The largest single shareholder has a miniscule position in the company. Hell, I hope they make a trillion dollars next year! Go XOM!
