Trickle Down Misery
That is what Republicans have given us financially. It boggles the mind that more Americans do not comprehend this.

2. The rain of golden showers on the heads of neopuke sheep is like manna from heaven.
The diehard pukes I know won't even admit there's ANYTHING wrong with the economy.

"Wha? There's something wrong with the economy? I think the 90s were wayyyy worse."


I swear, the damned town could have 90% unemployment with bread lines and soup kitchens on every corner and they would carp about people needing "handouts."

4. Same here, Doremus. Die-hard Pukes in VA still refuse to see any
problems. Just wait until Jan. 20, 2009, though, if (when) there's a Dem president--2 days after the poor bastard is inaugurated, the howling about how the Dems have destroyed the economy will begin.

3. Remember the original "trickle down theory?"
I was younger and less informed then, and what I remember thinking is "why would anyone want just a trickle?"

Seriously people bought off on the idea of having lefteovers because uncle ronnie said it? they didn't know that "trickle" ment "not very much?"
