They needed more Christians there. Warren Jeffs wanted to come, but he was busy.

Besides - none of them was carrying an umbrella. That may be why they weren't taken seriously.

You mean when Congress and the President decided that the S&P didnt matter and that they could continue to run deficits forever?

It is a typical right-wing tactic, deflect and spin are their trademarks and when those fail them they resort to childish insults, it is like dealing with 8 year olds.

Lay out the logic behind that assertion.

Those things worked here but it took a couple of weeks. Now some people are griping about our high 70s tomorrow with rain. We haven't had much rain but enough to make some people whine about it. My wife is proud of the fact that she went to one of those things although she doesn't go to church regularly.

Do you mean that Obama's speech yesterday that resulted in over $200 in losses after the speech was really the reason for what happened today. I was sure that you would say that the Tea Party didn't have anything to do with today. I guess you didn't notice what happened today after Bernanke made his most welcome speech. I think it was Ben and not Barack.

Are you going to blame Obama for that? If so is he responsible, in any way, for the monstrous drop last week? No, I know that it was those 20 Tea Party members of the House that voted no on that illegally arrived at bill.
