- Some famous Baby Boomers and their birth year
1946 Bill Clinton, George W Bush, Joseph Hazelwood, Henry Paulson
1947 Hillary Clinton, Arnold Schwarzenegger
1953 Jeff Skilling, Ben Bernanke
1955 Bill Gates
1961 Andrew Fastow
1946-1964 60% of the members of Congress (before the 2008 election)
When you consider that Congress has an approval rating that is HALF the approval rating of President Bush, I think THAT EXPLAINS A LOT!!! - Reply to this comment
- Blame Clinton for what?
Posted by uradufuss at 07:52 PM : Nov 19, 2008
So, are you saying Clinton is perfect? Are you saying he is not to blame for ANYTHING?
Have you EVER blamed Clinton for ANYTHING? Even just ONCE???
Have you EVER blamed ANY Democrat for ANYTHING???? - Reply to this comment
- Now is anyone really surprised that after Paulson and Bernanke took $2.7 TRILLION of taxpayer money and put it into their private pension funds...

Did you know that BOTH of them are Baby Boomers?
Doesn''t it help explain things to realize that our country is being run by a bunch of selfish Baby Boomer brats??? - Reply to this comment
- Could or would the loss of half the value of the market possibly be considered a significant psychological benchmark?
Posted by wl7bzh at 06:34 PM : Nov 19, 2008
It would be about half the "benchmark" as the crash of 1929-1932, when the market fell to ONE QUARTER - Reply to this comment
- I think the blame falls on Alan Greenspan. He was the frigging world money czar for a dozen years and set us up for this fall.

Greenspan is a puppet, a dupe, a drone, a stooge, a toady. He just said whatever the current administration wanted him to say. And just because he looked like E.T., we were supposed to think he was some kind of expert. He NEVER said anything that impressed me as brilliant or insightful. Just endless pablum.
That''s why he got re-appointed so many times by both Democrat and Republican. He read his lines convincingly and took home a hefty paycheck.
All in exchange for SELLING US OUT. - Reply to this comment
- Blame Clinton for what? You are a brainwashed idiot. You must be one of those middle-class people who makes $5 million dollars per year, right? Can you say "The Greater Depression?"

- standlee5,
Strange that you cry about the No Child Left Behind Program considering the problem with the program was they didn''t actually spend any money on it. You have to learn to separate rhethoric from actual spending. - Reply to this comment

- Lucky for obama he resigned his senate seat already so he doesn''t have to weigh in on any of the bailout stuff. The guy will continue to vote present for the entire four years letting Frank/Pelosi/Reid run the show.
