One_American....Could you please define "liberal" for me? This is a serious question, I''''m not attacking you. I hear this term thrown around like it was a dirty word and I don''''t quite understand. What exactly does a liberal believe in? Are there liberal republicans? How about independents? In what way are these "liberals" declaring war on America? I would really appreciate your clarification. Thanks.

"Worst Sales Of New Homes On Record"?

So what. The market is temporarily saturated.

And 1% growth, along with only a mere 5% unemployment is NOT A RECESSION.

The liberal media want it to be a recession, but it is not the truth - only a hollow liberal rant.

Liberals are still losing their War Against America.

And the stock market was UP today, CBS.

Get a clue.

Besides, I''''m ***-**** tired of being worried. I''''m going to freakin'''' live and hope for a while. Bush is not exactly to blame for the economy.

You usually speak common sense but you are way off base on this one. When Bush was giving away taxcuts to his rich buddies, he was shelving a treasury report by Paul O''Neal warning about the consequences of the long term debt. For that reason and the unnecessary inflationary war and for his endless supply of free trade agreements with every third world nation, Bush is responsible.

I only blame Bush in that he has wasted valuable resources by emeshing us in this non-necessary Iraq war. 300+ Billion could have built a bunch of roads, rails, bridges, schools, VA hospitals, provided education grants, upped teacher salaries. That money was needed here. We would have been better off giving each state 1 billion to improve it''s own security structure. Republican economic philosophy is woefully prepared for the new generation. Tricke-Down Voodoo Economics is dead. Move on Republicans. The sad thing is they have no other game plan and no talent to make adjustments.

If homes are going for $299,900 in Utah, then, what must they be going for elsewhere? Is it any wonder homes sales have fallen? Add to that the sub-prime loan mess and something most definitely needs to be done to lower the costs of homes.

someone thinks that "Bush is not exactly to blame for the economy."

Really? For the past 7 years, Bush has wiped out the huge surplus from the Clinton years, created the largest debt in this country''s history, borrowed and spent, borrowed and spent, borrowed and spent..., bringing this country to the edge of insolvancy, and during this time he has been pushing FEAR: the boogeymen (terrorists) are out to get us! Be afraid, be VERY afraid, but trust in Bush (the guy who should have protected us from 9/11 but did not) to save us all from the boogeymen! THIS IS NOT THE KIND OF ENVIRONMENT THAT LEADS TO ECONOMIC PROSPERITY!

So, yes indeed, Bush absolutely IS to blame for this mess.

Where is Neil Bush ??

In 2004, Bush took credit for this growth and now we see that it too was based on false housing data. And you want to blame liberals ! DUH

1980 - folks, note: Reagan''s tensure started in January, 1981.

And for once I''ll side with Bush. The more the mainstream media says "the sky is falling", the more people who watch it will blindly believe it. And then the spiral begins.

Besides, I''m ***-**** tired of being worried. I''m going to freakin'' live and hope for a while. Bush is not exactly to blame for the economy.

The government should make all lenders work with their borrowers to keep their homes whether they are holding adjustable rate mortgages (ARM''s) or fixed mortgages. My lender wouldn''t work with me to lower my mortgage because I do not have an ARM but I''m still paying 11% and 7% on a 20-80 financing and it''s eating up all my income. I cannot get a refi because my home was devalued by 20% with 0 equity, it''s now worth much less than what I paid for! My whole paycheck goes to pay the mortgage and I don''t have any left for food and utilities. I''m afraid it won''t be long before I too join the foreclosure bandwagon and both my lender and I will be the losers. I''m struggling to keep my home but I''m sure I''m not alone - I know there are many out there who need the government to step in and help borrowers like me who were caught in this mess. These greedy lenders should be compelled to work with us to reduce their stiff interest rates so we can keep our homes!

In his annual, possibly his last (it is hoped!) State of the Union speech tonight, the Great Emperor Bush II will tell the country that there is NO recession and that, as the Neocon media has been saying, it is all a figment of our imaginations!

However, to settle down markets abroad (and prevent the Chinese and Europeans from calling in their loans against the US(SA)!), the Great Emperor Bush will "persuade" Congress to give every wage earner (the poor, unemployed people, and retirees don''t count!) a "rebate" of $600 to spend as fast as they get it!

In this way, the economy of the US(SA) will be "stimulated", the stock markets here and around the world won''t "CRASH", business profits will be UP, highly paid corporate executives won''t have to worry about their huge paychecks "bouncing" and neither will stockholders have to worry about smaller dividends, and the wealthy can continue to enjoy the "American Dream"!

Of course, the Great Emperor will not mention in his speech that he expects to get that "rebate" money back as he did with the last "rebate", but ordering the IRS to collect income taxes on it!!!

HA! HA! HA!

SIG HEIL, BUSH!!!!!
