I hope I’m wrong.
IMO, I have sadly concluded that's exactly where we are headed. Stupidity and greed have triumphed. This entire dodgy situation is coming to a head very fast. It is unlikely the Fed or anybody else can keep the all the balls juggling until after the election. The electorate's reaction to plunging into this abyss will be to really throw out the GOP this time - entirely the wrong move but the most likely one. It will be like 1932, redux.
This blame game is extremely well coordinated by the Dems and the MSM. One need only look at the higher price of oil today than a year ago and now hear the deafening silence on this subject from Congress now that the Dems are in charge there. The volume on troubles only goes up when the GOP is in charge.
This has gone beyond our government doing what is good for America and the American People. It has become all about gaining naked power, just like the Iraq War. Facts no longer matter, just perceptions.
>> MSM will turn Bush into Hoover, and Hillary into FDR, our savior. I hope I’m wrong.
Boy oh boy do I hope you’re wrong. I pray you’re wrong.
But I fear you may be right.
Mommy, Travis McGee is scaring me!!!
You stated my fear. I’m terrified that 2008 will start in recession and make wonderful headlines for the MSM to trumpet, so as to get Hitlery elected in the fall. I really think that is the ONLY chance The Beast has to get elected.
You know, if cutting interest rates would push this recession back until after the elections, then I could hold my nose and live with killing the dollar one more year. But the rate cuts won’t work, we will get the recession anyway and maybe Hitlery too.
Scary stuff.
I don’t think your wrong. I think she will be elected because of the out of control cost of living for the middle class. Americans have had a very long stretch of comfortable wealth building in the 90’s and then easy access to credit continuing the party. She has already started blathering as I expected her to about how she will return the economy to the glory of the 90’s.
Reality is, Bill Clinton inherited many economy advantages built by the Republicans. I have to give him some credit where it is due in this regard but of course it meant nothing over the long haul considering nuclear espionage being allowed by China for campaign cash along with sensitive dual technology sales such as ICBM. Of course this was widely proliferated, gotta love our wonderful trade partners! Oh yeah, doing nothing about terrorism didn’t help much either for the economy after 911. We’re on the same page Travis.
hey, your having the same nightmare I am!
makes me think this has all been planned out by the Illuminati or the Gnomes of Zurich or the CFR even!
Robert Anton Wilson knew!
