It is about time we conservatives speak these words directly to President Bush. In sadness maybe, but speak them we must.

“You have sat to long here for any good you have been doing. Depart, I say, and let us have done with you. In the name of God, go!.”

Oliver Cromwell Addressing the rump parliament. April 1653.

"Well..., we’re in the Great Depression again (it will build throughout this year and into next year...)."

This financial stuff has been a problem for some time... BUT, we have not had a recession, we have had periods of record low unemployment (mostly single-digits unlike Carter years), the Dow up over 11K?, steady growth in GDP, record revenues into the Federal coffers after the tax cuts, plus other 'good news'...

Strange how the sky just all-of-a-sudden fell doawn and we have gone from all that 'good economic nnews' to the next "Great Depression" in about one month...just before an election. And now, a few weeks before the election, "The New World Order" of George H. W. Bush and the members of The Trilaterals & CFR is kicking in like "but hurry this offer won't last" right now or die.

This fish don't smell right to me.

Ronald Reagan is rolling over in his grave

.....as are George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, James Madison, Ben Franklin, Alexander Hamilton, and a whole host of pro-American ne'er-do-wells. :)

Please excuse the slow response. I'm busy rolling over in my grave.

Alexander Hamilton

Come on, this is the fulfillment of Hamilton's vision for American--down to shipping much/most of the money overseas.

Hi, I’m Nancy Pelosi. I’m your banker.

The government should leave banking to people who want to make it work.

...then I guess Burr did the right thing?

Looks like the election that brought foreshadowed the Duel was as bad as the one we’re in now. As long as Nancy and her House of Cards, doesn’t get to choose anyone, I’m good.

we can’t control ourselves from using our credit cards so let’s blow everything up!

America is being judged right now. On what merit does it deserve to avoid the evil decree of an Obama govt?

The part that sucks is the other choices were worse than him.

And NOW we have the same damn thing during this election. MOST of us can’t stand McCain and WE ARE all praying for him to win.

I’m sure if McCain wins, when it’s all said and done we’ll be asking ourselves the same thing.

If this was John Edwards or of the like, I’d probably vote 3rd party. However, they’ve put a 3rd world tyrant on the other ticket and now we have to vote for this old puke.

I seem to recall John Adams as having wondered what took Aaron Burr so long. But that was not a reflection on Hamilton’s policies.

They were right, but for the wrong reasons. They think he’s an idiot for being far right. We think he’s an idiot for constantly going along with the left.

I think in terms of the Democrat Party and the “Republican wing of the Democrat Party”.

This analysis is incorrect because ....?

Because an organization that has produced the largest long term operating debt in the history of the planet is now taking greater control of our private US banking system ?

Apparently, to some, Socialism is acceptable if it is forced upon us by a Republican.

Sure seems that way, and I don't see things changing. The GOP leadership just continues its slide to the left. If McCain weren't having to run against Obama, I'd vote third party at this point, because I don't recognize the GOP anymore.
