The board seems agitated and pissed off....what did I miss
I checked the polls, they still look good, I checked the page, Obama still looks great and McCain still looks crazy and old. What did the media do today?

2. I'm still at work. . .
So I don't know, but I was kind of wondering the same thing. I suppose the MSM has been up to its same bullshit they pull every day if I had to really guess!

4. McCain has reached new lows of ludicrousness
He's attacking Obama as a Washington insider beholden to lobbyists and casting himself as a populist fighting for the common man. The mind reels.

5. It's MSM to McCain's rescue day.
watch them make fools of themselves as they say shit like, "hey, who the Hell knows about Spain's leader anyway? Shit, my son doesn't even know that one." Or "McCain's economic plan is the same as Obama's." Or...

7. The rich are getting even richer (with our money); the poor are getting even poorer.

8. It's the total ineptness of the market and those
responsible who piss me off; who is going to take the blame, while Lehman's CEO rakes it in? (Hint: $45M)

Oh, and I'm getting really damned tired of McBush and Palin lying with every breath they take.

10. Yesterday everyone was pumped and moving together..
then I think it went south later in the evening, because when I came back on line this morning there were a number of comments about a "swarm" coming in.. what ever that was.. bees, freepers, escapees from the palin/mccain campaign.

Maybe that was it.. And I missed that one..

11. Yeah, it's the financial stuff.
A feeling of impending doom can make one agitated.

12. Right now it's the fuckers on Hardball saying that they think
Obama's poll numbers in Michigan are too high. "I just sense that it's closer!" They whine. And then they were drooling over Sarah some more.

That pissed me off.

14. Uh, a billion dollar bailout - see chart:
The attached picture will make it much clearer how much money the thieves are talking about now.

Note, all of the dots in the photo are those up until today's suggested additional bailout.

Also note that the largest billion dollar bailout until now belonged to Bush Sr.

The newest one is currently estimated to cost about One Trillion Dollars!

That's a 1 with twelve 0's! Or $1,000,000,000,000. !!

Imagine the size of the dot they'll have to create and add to the chart for THAT.

Our government and it's corporate pals have robbed us of a heart-stopping, unprecedented amount of money.

Again.

Never never never never forget - that Republicans privatize profits and socialize losses.

You can see this chart and more here:

Edited on Fri Sep-19-08 07:14 PM by politicasista
maybe I am just bitter or angry about other thing. Maybe I need to be put on ignore for a while. :shrug: :hide:


I am not mad at Obama. He is still looking good. :)
