Well, I think I just lost the rest of my retirement in the Stock Market today.

Down almost 5%. What do these people want?

I dunno what they want, Mom, but it's obvious they don't want this pork bill.

2. Isn't that against their best interests?

If there were such a thing as "Stupidest Primitive Comment of the Day," the above would be a winner.

4. They want to crush the middle class into poverty. We are well on our way.

Can you imagine if Bush had been able to privatize social security??

11. We need to ****ing face reality.

I'm sorry, Raven, I like you, even though you probably have no idea who I am. I'm just getting so frustrated with the way people here and in the real world are believing what they want to believe.

I have been warning that this was bound to happen. I presented evidence and analysis. Nobody wanted to listen. I have nothing to gain from this fact; in fact, I may lose my job in June. I REALLY WISH THIS WEREN'T SO, BUT WISHES DON'T TRUMP FACTS.

We are in massive debt as a country, as states and municipalities, as corporations, and as individuals. That is the root cause of all of our problems. No one wants to hear that, because to admit it is to admit that there is NO SOLUTION. This is going to be extremely painful, no matter what.

The TARP bill and the stimulus bill are temporary fixes that, because they get us EVEN DEEPER INTO DEBT, are actually going to make the problem WORSE. No one wants to hear that. They won't respond to the argument, but they don't want to hear it.

Nothing that happened today comes as a shock to me. That's the frustrating part: sitting on the sidelines, watching it fall apart, without the money to capitalize on that knowledge. AND NO ONE WANTS TO BELIEVE IT.

I will be attacked for this post, perhaps rightly so. This will come across as "I told you so" and as bitter and angry. But the fact is that I have been right every step of the way and had people listened they might still have some of their retirement savings. I will be dismissed and ignored for this post, but in the end, unfortunately, I will be proven right. And that won't do me or anyone else a lick of good.

Nah, couldn't have anything to do with the trillion ****ing dollar pork package that's about to be passed, could it? nahhh. Couldn't have anything to do with the incompetence displayed by our CEO of the country last night, could it? Nah.

A dollar more than a DUmmie and you're part of the evil rich. A dollar less and you're part of the downtrodden poor.....just where the hell is "middle class"?

Not only that but the tax cheat wasn't very specific on how TARP2 would work during his little newsy thing today.

There actually exists a Great Chasm between a small group of primitives and the larger group of primitives.

There's some primitives who are very well-off indeed, usually trusted-funded kids.

Those are the one's I've been watching, to see if they're suffering.

I'm very happy to report they are.

The people that have actually earned money and know what to do with it are getting the **** out of our country... have been since there was a chance the communist would be elected.  To be truthful they have been leaving since we got a socialist democrat party member as the speaker of the house.

Yes you DUmb****s it is all about the democrat....socialists wanting to take the achiever's rewards away from them that the shit has hit the fan.  Not to mention it  the porkulus bill sill make it next to impossible to move up society's ladder.  You bet we are leaving or doing the bare minimum to stay treading water.  It makes no sense to do more and that is why SOCIALISM ALWAYS FAILS!!!!!

Achievers don't work 16 hours a day to have all their hard work taken from them and given to low life loser like the DUmpmonkeys.  IT IS THAT SIMPLE.

I nominate that one for the stupidest DU comment of the day.  I don't even know what to make of it.  Who are "these people?"  What are they "wanting?"  Does she picture a bunch of bankrobbers or something, making something go down 5%?  I don't get it.

You perhaps aren't aware of the life of the carpetbagging maternal ancestress.

Born circa 1945-1946 into a prominent Irish family in Boston engaged in the legal business, and making a very good living at it, the daughter who was sort of ignored among the brothers, who were trained for the family business.

Becomes a hippie during the 1960s, rejecting the "materialistic" values of the then-establishment, but very careful not to reject her well-endowed trust fund. 

A "social" "activist," becomes enamoured of some guy from Alabama, marriage lasts a short time but long enough to procreate the Bostonian Drunkard in 1971.

Seeking to be liberated of her "little girl" role in the family, like Dan Quayle goes to night school to become an attorney, in between changing diapers on the Bostonian Drunkard.

Finally earns a legal degree, but because taxes are too high in Massachusetts, moves to New Hampshire where taxes are lower.....but in New Hampshire, continues to vote the same way she had voted in Massachusetts, thus ensuring that ultimately taxes in New Hampshire will become just as high as those in Massachusetts.

The carpetbagging maternal ancestress, even at her advanced age, is not very well-versed on matters such as the origin of money and wealth.

This is the biggest flaw of liberalism, it assumes it knows what the best interests of others are and then tries to impose those interests on them.

Mrs Pittster, you have no idea what is in the best interest of anybody but yourself but since you are so busy putting your nose in other people's business you probably don't even know that.

Fix your own life and make it perfect before you even suggest trying to fix mine or tell me what is in my best interest.  You have no idea.  Your arrogance is only exceeded by your ignorance.

The way I look at it, if the libs believe so much in B. Hussein and the Dem pork bill, then they need to scrape up every dollar they have and invest it in the stock market immediately.  Let's see them put their money where their mouth is.
