    Thats the game though. We have to live with the fear of other markets crashing and so do you.

    I really and truly don't feel that the market is crashing, no matter what the doomsdayers would have you believe. My read is it's a lot of opportunists ringing the alarm bells while helping themselves to boatloads of depressed stock.

      Though I will admit that I have strongly considered defecting to the Democrats...No!...Since it seems to piss you off, I'll stay a Republican. That way I won't get lynched if I move to a Southern "Jesusland" Redstate. :D

        I don't believe it is either despite, my "doom-and-gloom" persona. But it is being seriously mismanaged by those that prize ideology over fiscal responsibility.

              Nothing pisses me off...except people dishonoring our troops in harms way. That royally pisses me the fuck off. Other than that, I have thick skin.

              If you move down here to the South (I'm on the border), you need to lose the attitude. This isn't the Selma march of the 1960's. People are a lot different than you may imagine. Maybe that's why Democrats and people like you (OK, I'll refer to you as a Republican if you wish) still haven't figured out the South during the elections. People take their faith seriously, but they take other issues equally as seriously. If you go and offend them on their faith issues, you may as well hang it up. Calling this place "Jesusland" is one such example. Not everyone is like that, but some are. Do as you wish, however. Cheers.

                  Rest assured, I have my tongue planted firmly in my cheek, and I don't judge people by their party affiliations and religious convictions unless they make some big holier-than-now thing out of it. I lived in Northern Virginia for four years.

                    John McCain: Bushwhacked (long)

                    By all rights, Senator John McCain should have won the Republican presidential nomination in 2000. After McCain surged in the New Hampshire primary, however, something unseemly took place:

                    "What happened has taken on the air of an unsolved crime, a cold case, with Karl Rove [George W. Bush's chief political advisor and a master of negative campaigning] being the prime suspect. Bush loyalists, maybe working for the campaign, maybe just representing its interests, claimed in parking-lot handouts and telephone 'push polls' and whisper campaigns that McCain's wife, Cindy, was a drug addict, that McCain might be mentally unstable from his captivity in Vietnam, and that the senator had fathered a black child with a prostitute. Callers push-polled members of a South Carolina right-to-life organization and other groups, asking if the black baby might influence their vote. [After McCain met with a group of gay Republicans, fliers were distributed calling McCain the "fag candidate."]

                    "Now here's the twist, the part that drives McCain admirers insane to this very day: That last rumor took seed because the McCains had done an especially admirable thing. Years back they'd adopted a baby from a Mother Teresa orphanage in Bangladesh. Bridget, now eleven years old, waved along with the rest of the McCain brood from stages across the state, a dark-skinned child inadvertently providing a photo op for slander. The attacks were of a level and vitriol that even McCain, who was regularly beaten in captivity, could not ignore. He began to answer the slights, strayed off message about how he would lead the nation if he got the chance, and lost the war for South Carolina. Bush emerged from the showdown upright and victorious... and onward he marched."

                    [In June 2004, the Bush-Cheney campaign website (georgewbush.com) displayed pictures of Adolf Hitler between photographs of prominent Democratic politicians.]

                    [Trivia: Karl Rove was allegedly fired from the 1992 Bush presidential campaign after he admitted to planting a negative story (with columnist Robert Novak) about dissatisfaction with campaign fundraising chief Robert Mosbacher Jr.]

                    Rove, Karl ["Turdblossom"] (1951- ) American political strategist [noted for his bipartisan policies and calculating Beltway power-games]

                      No matter which side of the fence you're on, you have to admit that the new budget that Bush submits on February 7th should be interesting reading.

                        So Elvis, what do you think about Rove and Bush's hatchet job on McCain Mr. High & Mighty? How was their name calling?

                          It seems to be standard practice for Bush to attack Vietnam vets.Maybe he knows he should have been there too.
