I too am doing better today, maybe because I have been financially responsible unlike so many who instead of blaming the government need to look at what they are doing wrong financially.

No, that was not the truth.

Wrong. Frank, Pelosi, Dodd, Shumer, et al got you into this mess. The nest ans the mess will grow and grow as now I look int my crystal ball and I see a huge global nest of little chirping birds with their mouths open squealing feed me, feed me, clothe me, shelter me, give me my meds. "Work, wait a minute, he keeps talking about work, I'm just startin to notice this word work showin up in a lot of his speeches, work ...what the hell?"

And, BTW, that really is the republican agenda. Money and how well you are doing. Screw the country and your fellow man. As long as YOU are okay the world is good.

Good for you.

I'm doing better too, but the numbers don't lie. Most people are doing worse. They're stock portfolio's and 401k's aren't what they used to be. Many homes are losing value, unemployment is way too high, and it's obviously difficult to get loans.

I think a lot of Americans were responsible, but just ran into some bad luck. You might too someday.

Aha, and just who has been the COC? You can't it both ways, you know. You can't claim we've been "safe" due to Bush and blame our economy on someone else. But it is oh so convenient for your ilk.

You said that Bush made our country safer and was good for our economy. That is untrue.

This has nothing to do with your personal business. I don't care.
