The reason the markets are falling is because everybody wants to get out before Obama because president and raises the taxes. Funny how none of the talking heads wants to talk about it but the ones selling stocks are scared Obama will screw everything up so they are getting out now, if McCain rises in the polls the markets will go up.

The Bush/Cheney Crime Cartel has conspired and successfuly carried out the largest transfer of Wealth in World History. We now have a Very Few Ruling Elite, that have virtually drained the Entire Treasury of the United States, and deposited it in Secret Accounts in Dubai, leaving the entire Nation destitute. Pappy supported and Rubber-Stamped EVERY piece of Legislation that these Criminal Scumbags put in front of him. The American people are FINALLY waking up and realizing the gravity of their situation.

Obama/Biden ''''08

It was a stated goal

"I don''t want to abolish government. I simply want to reduce it to the size where I can drag it into the bathroom and drown it in the bathtub."

Mission Accomplished

Yeah, books get REAL interesting when you are an adult.. I try to instill that in my kids.
Im a big Vonnegut fan myself!
and the Greek classics are awesome too. If my parents didnt read to me, I wouldnt have ever known...
Anyway, it''s off-topic, but these days everythings inter-related.. Economy, education, you name it..
ONE BIG MESS

Everybody''s so busy these days - that''s great that your kids are doing so well :)

I guess there''s the challenge of trying to make books interesting too, because tv and video games seem so much more exciting!

Careful what you wish for. I don''''t know if I would want to win this election. The next four years are really going to suck and it will nothing to do with who''''s president.

Yes but it isn''t as bad as what FDR faced or what Truman faced with McCarthy AND the economy. Obama will be FINE! He''s cool and very thoughtful... He''ll be just fine.

I think Barack uses it as an example of what''''s going to get cut because it''''s already cut, which is too bad - of all the people who are being asked to sacrifice, asking it of little kids who start off life two steps behind is just not the place to start :(

Uh Huh? LOL So because you didn''t get far enough in school to UNDERSTAND the Economic Policy of Obama''s... it''s the SAME as Clinton''s if that helps... ANY because you have this problem WE all have to try to survive 4 MORE years of the Bush Economic Policy?? YOU MUST try to pick up some education... either that or seek a Doctor because your mental health is in question! Good Grief!!
