[Fleshdancer]

6. but if you're running 300 yards back and forth, then you're not doing it right

There are good ups and downs and then there's this.

3. Should Read "Dow Down Almost 400 Points"

I guess if you're the MSM, and you want to put on a HAPPY HAPPY FACE, you say that Down 387, is Down over 300 points.

Shouldn't it be Down Almost 400 Points?

5. What truth in reporting? You kid me right

[Individualist]

10. Corporatists are saying nothing to see here, move along

:crazy:

7. Bush not concerned.

He's gonna do some fishin. People we're fucked. If the ECB had to make $130B in credit available, what will the Fed have to do to "calm the markets" and where will they get the money? Oh wait, I forgot, they just print it. :)

11. Panic short selling ?

Short sellers love panic selling, they don't "panic short".

12. I have right-wingers telling me about the boom economy.

They say they "lost it all" under Clinton. That's weird, because the stock market netted 7500 points under Clinton. Under Junior, the market has gone up 3000 points in 6+ years. Just shows you how delusional these people can be.

13. They have no faith in Bush, and now no faith in the Congress to stop him.

Oh, wait, it's about mortgage companies. Right.
