I urge every American to buy a gun. You will help the economy. Then when the sherrif and the tax collector come to the front door, you can also reduce the size of government.
******

I thank you for the early morning laugh!

I don''t have a real gun, but I do have a working musket, does that count?

A house flipper is someone who puts a deposit on a house, and pays the monthly bill, hoping the value will rise to the point where he or she can sell it at a profit.

You don''''t know what a house flipper is, but make assessments on the state of the US economy?

You must be like just barely old enough to read the words you type.

So basically all house fliipers were black and buying and selling property in the ghetto as the prices skyrocketed?

A man and his history.

(1) A %u201DCommunity Organizer%u201D %u2013 Politically pressured banks and mortgage companies in Chicago with organized sit ins that would disrupt their business unless they gave credit worthless people very low interest mortgages so they could participate in the real estate boom that became the real estate bubble and subsequently contributed nationwide, to the sub-prime mess. This was a more sophisticated version of the same extortion methods used by Jackson and Sharpton in New York. There businessmen simply gave money in recognition that it would be cheaper than the cost of the disruptions

(2) A political career financed by William Ayers, head of radical groups who participated in a Pentagon bombing to protest war. Obama has exercised care to never vote on controversial issues while crafting an image of a statesman by claiming credit for a Non Nuclear Proliferation bill, to which only the president of Iran would objected.

(3) A man who claims he will be the first Black president, when he is half white and to being a Christian when he was raised by Muslims.

(5). A man married to a militant black, whose graduate thesis condemns blacks that graduated Harvard because they have gone on to prosperity and focused on raising a family.

Speaking to a Klan meeting yesterday, Barack Obama, proclaimed he was really a white man. And because most of the Klan members are democrates, they believed him.

In fact he announced a five point plan to make every black man in America white, so racism in America will be eliminated.

He also has a second plan to make them rich so poverty in this country will be eliminated.

And he is currently working on a third plan to let them each have their own Monica Lewinsky.

The applause was deafening!

"Despite Bailout." Well of course the problems are going to get worse. The bail out was a Bush plan and Bush plans do nothing but fail.

Money for those that caused the problems, pork laden bills for the Republicans and the taxpayers received more bushit.

If that were true, then at least I could enjoy the meth, instead of letting Bush enjoy it.

Invest in America? I suppose you could call Enron, Lehman, AIG, Worldcom, and countrywide American companies, and you are just the type to trust your life savings to them. Go for it...

Fox news has a "documentary" that promotes this loony theory. Why don''''t you grab a big glass of kool aid and have a watch.

We all get it by now. We have been BUSHED! What incredibly dishonest and incompetent leadership this Republican administration has given us. NO WAY we can allow McCain and Palin to take office ... we MUST vote for Obama/Biden to correct this mess the Republicans have created. Enough! ENOUGH! Go Obama/Biden!
