Quick... start the recall election petitions!

:sarcasm: ...but maybe we COULD adopt the Puke tactic trumpeting every bit of bad news and somehow tying it to the Boner Ascendency, so to speak...

2. Yep, time to start acting like a small fringe group....
...maybe the press will pay attention if that happens.

3.  The economy will sink when the market starts to spiral
and its the same old job killin shit from the right.

I don't have $$$ to be clout but I will say I ain't spending a dime I don't have to, and it ain't that hard cause I'm broke.
Now back to my book, the tv is off at least for now. I simply do not grok how stupid this election is and how they could vote the same shit back in that it took us so f ing long to get out.

5. The cost of wanting to shrink the deficit.
Ya'll heard AynRand Paul. No more investing on the economy, no programs for growth, lower taxes for everyone which in the end means no money to fix infrastructure, etc... Just pay the debt.

10. I think it's time
to declare that we're going to be a 3rd World Nation soon. People will be dying in the streets. Funding of all social programs will be gone. Domestic Violence, Hospice, health care for poor, kids, elderly....all gone. No Section 8 housing...like there is that much left today.

More foreclosures, more slashing of wages, and the middle class will be gone. 3rd world status.

Essentials will be very costly....heat, bread, coffee, meat, food. Commodity prices are up 30%...this will arrive in your grocery store soon. Sugar hit an all time high today. Buy your chocolate now.

6. Wall Street is scared of Tea Baggers. There were
Business and Wall Streeters on Bloomberg Channel
the day before yesterday. Tea Baggers platform
is not good for the country and certainly bad
for Wall Street.

Of course MSM are not going to pick up these stories.

9. I think it has more to do
with the FOMC statement coming out today....how much the Fed will spend on Treasuries in the coming months. You know....free money for the rich and banksters. It never seems to trickle down to us.

Our economy is getting to implode. Batten down the hatches.
