We all know the economy is going to get much worse before it gets better. Right?
So, it is so infuriating to hear all my republican friends tell me how things are going to get so bad under Obama. Businesses are laying off employees in anticipation of an Obama presidency. Just heard that one. ARGGGGGHHHH

My head is about to explode. What do you tell these people? The economy is going to suck regardless of whose president! This just pisses me off to no end. :banghead:

Please don't ask me why I have republican friends. I'm in a very red state, and my kids are friends with their kids...

I just needed to vent. It's hard living here, especially as a progressive Christian. I'm not a "real" one, ya' know?

2. How convenient to blame it on Obama - who's not even elected, instead of Bush
who's responsible for the past eight years.

4. You tell them their guy made the mess, and just like always, it's up to the democrats to clean it up
And if they want the good times back, they better get out of the way.
