Greedy corporations are plotting against President Obama and the country
Does anyone else wonder how the hell shit hit the fan so rapidly in the past six months? At the beginning of 2008, before President Obama was even believed to have a glimmer of a chance, the economy was presumed to be "sound". Sometime after it became clear that President Obama would win this election going away, the economy all of a sudden hit the glass going 160 mph. What the **** happened?
Economists say that the so-called "credit crunch" has had a domino effect on the rest blahblahblahadnauseam......

12. Very naive response
You way oversimplify the op. The depths of what we're entering into won't be fully realized for a few months. This financial "meltdown" was, indeed, well planned. They boldly assumed it before Bush became anointed, just as they did "another Pearl Harbor."
Home Depot, the auto makers, any labor group.. we are truly back in the "old days" of which the Republicans speak so fondly. They planned this as meticulously as they've planned every other move they've made...in lockstep.
It is waaaaaaaay too convenient for the nation to have been doing just swell during Bush's reign of error, but completely fell into the shitter as soon as Bush's term was up.
Suddenly, Iraq is awesome, troops can come home (after a layover in Afghanistan); Gitmo will be shuttered (but angry ex-Git-cons may move into your neighborhood and launch attacks against the local Piggly Wiggly); torture is kinda illegal again; the money-printing industry is a shining beacon in Obama's FDR-like strategy to put America back to work. Heck, even Rush Limbaugh is called out by the president! Called out! If Obama were a DUer, he'd have a warning in his inbox as we speak!
Just sayin'.
Yeah, yeah.
Ho-hum.
One wonders if Playboy Pedro had been a planned child, or if he was a late unexpected surprise, circa 50 years ago.

I can tell them what happened to the economy. It's fairly simple...
The children (demonratics) took over the playground. When the take-over happened there were several folks claiming to be adults (republicans), but there wasn't enough real adults (conservatives) to keep the children (demonratics) in line. As almost always happens when children (demonratics) are allowed to run amok the situation (economy) became fubar.

It's fascinating how Playboy Pedro credits all things to malicious forces.
Nothing happens by chance or accident, in Playboy Pedro's world.
All that happens, all that occurs, is planned, by forces hostile to Playboy Pedro.
Even the outcome of a roll of the dice in a craps game is planned by some sinister agency, to go against Playboy Pedro.
It all sort of contradicts Playboy Pedro's odd notion that the Supernatural does not exist, but there it is, there you have it.

He may have the right idea about it being planned.
Jimmy Carter pass the bill against banks red lining borrowers.....Bill Clinton used the Justice Dept. to intimidate the banks into making more bad loans......Barney Frank and Harry Ried protected Frannie Mae and Freddie Mack.......then, when a slump in the economy was needed to push Obama's campaign a little......Chuck Schumer leaked a confidential report to the press ...and .....walla... the dominoes started falling....I don't think they anticipated them all going down...... :rotf:
It's your baby Democrats. Now take responsibility for it and raise it by yourself.
