1. And stage 2 would be???
I REALLY need to hear more before I contribute to throwing more Americans out of work.

Your legit gov plans are a little too damn heartless for me.

3. Yeah, I would say to just patronize progressive businesses...
And watch THEM to be careful about where their cash goes...

Otherwise * will blame the impending economic doom on us...

11. let him, what can he do to stop us...he can have us shot in the streets,
but for now he cannot control our money. Let stop talking about what happen in this election, (except of counting the votes) blaming what happen on all sorts of things..I think we did almost everything right in this election and in my heart I think we won it.

and from those that make heavily skewed contributions to r/w and repub causes.

17. He'll blame economic doom on us anyway...
If it weren't for us crummy ol' drinkin' and dancin' liberals Mary Cheney would still be straight, the bush twins wouldn't be winos, and Pigboy wouldn't be an Oxyjunkie.

5. No - divert your money to progressive - shift the economy from global
corps to local sustainable progressive businesses. It'll still hurt the bushbackers to take away their markets, but will feed markets that need it and won't hurt the overall economy (which would hurt the most vulnerable first).
