No complaints here. I never blame anyone else for my bad decisions. And I made some good decisions the last 8 years and am doing real well right now. And if we have a bunch of liberals running the government, I will just have to change my plans for the next 4 years.

I'm soooo sick of hearing this. I wasn't against the war and the current crisis is the dems fault. My husband and I have both doubled our salaries in the last eight years and that's pretty much the story for all our repub friends and their friends and so on...that you people like to be miserable is your problem.
Stop listening to the media and maybe you'll start to feel grateful that you live in the greatest country in the world.

BO scares the hell out of us.

HELLOOOO!!!! Just because you are EXACTLY right about all of the above...don't you KNOW that it is ALL George Bush's fault and NOT the Dems???? It will all be Bush's fault right up until the NEXT Rep takes office. The Dems are NEVER responsible for anything...or the entire Fanny/Freddy issues that started this economic mess would be resting right in their lap!!!
