It's going to recover just like it would have without the 'O'millions of tax payer dollars being spent.  It will probably recover slower but it will recover.  The bottom line is going to be how much of the recovery is going to come out of peoples pockets to pay back their own damn money.

Sooo true. A bigger collection of sad sacs has never gotten together anywhere.

Maybe they remembered that a huge number of people in this country have
money in the market???  :whatever:

Hi all,


http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=105&topic_id=8631758&mesg_id=8631758

I am a lurker here from the last 6 mos or so. I don't know all the posting protocol, so forgive me, but I was bored and wandering around DU and came across something very odd/interesting. It appears one of the DUmmies was arrested for domestic abuse, and has pics posted. Didn't know if you might be interested in transporting it over here?

P.S. Love this site! I found ya'll through DummieFunnies, I post on Newsbusters, mainly, but you guys have such a good site, I keep finding myself coming over more and more.


There is no virtue in compulsory government charity, and there is no virtue in advocating it. A politician who portrays himself as caring and sensitive because he wants to expand the government's charitable programs is merely saying that he is willing to do good with other people's money. Well, who isn't? And a voter who takes pride in supporting such programs is telling us that he will do good with his own money— if a gun is held to his head.

That's because the step forward was due to the Messiah's omnipotence. The two steps back are still Dubya's fault.

Iffy question. Normally I'd bitchslap you for being a new-be and a lurker, but for the moment-


There is a fine line between making fun of the ****ing loonies at teh DUmp, and doing whatever else would be thought of as a tad too harsh.

Although if it is true, the DUmpmonkie has my full support and replaying in kind to the abuse.

I keep hoping that the people with the real smarts in the GOP...the ones that can get face time on TV will realize this and start pointing it out.

Uhm, o.k., I don't think I was expecting someone to  want to bitchslap me, but hey, I can roll with it. I actually wasn't thinking about making fun of anyone involved in Domestic Abuse, as I was almost killed by my ex husband. I just thought it was very odd, it seems the DUmpmonkie was arrested, and written up in the local paper, yet he/she says they were the one abused, and provided pics of bruises. All I did was link the header, not directly on the story or pics, if someone wants to do something with it, I just wanted to provide the info, as I know you guys keep up with who's who there, and what their story seems to be. I didn't mean to tick anyone off, I realize you guys are a tight knit bunch, so I won't interfere. Have a good night.

Don't worry about Dutch and his comment about bitch slapping newbies.

He seems to have some sort of fetish about that.

I hope he hasn't driven you away.

We all have to remember that when the market goes down it is Bush/republicans/anything but Obama.

Now when it goes up it is all Obama and not jump in housing starts or any financial news..

The One can do nothing but good.
When you are the beneficiary of someone’s kindness and generosity, it produces a sense of gratitude and community.

When you are the beneficiary of a policy that steals from someone and gives it to you in return for your vote, it produces a sense of entitlement and dependency.
