That cartoon is so accurate, although a little propeller on the moron's beanie would have been a nice touch.
Yes. The Saudis and UAE might decide to hold onto more of their oil, too. They'll be wanting to gather some more defenses against Iran soon.
Well correct me if I'm wrong, but ppl living off of savings/investments (retirees mainly) should have more sense than to subject their source of income to something as fickle as the political winds, no? Aren't their less volatile investment vehicles for ppl living off of their investment savings? Did they never consider that maybe, just maybe, the other party might eek out a victory once in a while?
yep, the stock market was doing great, the economy doing good, yet people wanted change! WHY change when things are just fine the way they are? Got me, this is totally crazy!
I hope Rove and Cheney are having fun hunting today.
So - why then did all the Wall Street firms and other Fortune 500 businesses contribute more to Dems than Republicans if it was not what they wanted ??????
Can you say "you get what you pay for" ?
"We're headed toward another good buying oppty."
When you are 68 and protected your nesteggs during the Clintoon bubble bursting, you get very gun shy at reinvesting that nest egg with Pelosi/Reid/Clinton/Boxer and other rats in charge of Congress.
Then if Obabbbbbbammma becomes president in 2008 if the Islamofascists allow that to happen, even money markets and cds will not be a good investment.

These super rich elitist rats are Facists. They contribute to the political party which will insure their market advantage and kill off the newer competitors. Many of their corporations are swollen with cash and will buy back big on the down swings coming. That will give them more control over their companies and enable them to ride out downswings like the family that owns the voting stock of the NY Slimes.
One of the first things, they will push for will be elimination of the lower taxes on dividends. They would love to go back to stocks that pay little if any dividends. That way they don't have to share with their peon investors.
Gasoline over 5 $'s/gallon is real reality when the Islamofascists in Iran, Syria and Iraq pay back the Bush haters.
The market indexes are basically down across the board.

Going to mostly cash ( cd's, etc. ) is looking alot smarter now.
Market open 10 minutes and it's already down 45.
These are my thoughts too, but - the elites still have to pay capital gains just like the rest of us.
Not just John Conyers holding impeachment hearings and judges not getting a vote in the Senate...
but also the defense of America.
Will the battle fields move from Iraq to USA ?
I don't think this election is going to matter. The stock markets have baked in these results for the past month.
Maybe the only issue is the Senate of which the outcome is still uncertain which the market hates. But once we get that decided, I think the market goes much higher over the balance of the year.
...if you don't go for McCain in 2008 then be happy with your efforts in putting Hildebeast in the WH...just wait to see how fast all GOP hopefuls for '08 start backpedaling against Dubya...
You confuse me with someone who cares at the moment
