What a load!

$700,000,000,000.00 USD

Was it as good for you as it was for me?  Blowing that $700,000,000,000.00 load was supposed to help save our economy!  Bush came out in a near panic and said that we needed to pass this bill immediately because each day the economy lost Trillions of dollars ( $X,000,000,000,000.00).  The US Treasurer Paulson backed Bush and made it abundantly clear that if we didn’t pass this bill, the economy would tumble.

Then some people asked questions.

Why $700,000,000,000.00?
Answer:  We think it’s enough.

Will it work?
Answer:  We hope so.

So have you seen the latest measures of the American economy recently?  The DOW is below 10,000.00 for the first time in four (4) years when we were at the height of this war in Iraq.  And if you think the DOW is only one indicator, take into account the huge losses across the global markets.  Trillions up Trillions of dollars have been lost and people are looking for someone to blame!

The McCain Campaign is blaming Barack Obama, after telling us for months that Barack was a rookie and had no experience.  Apparently a rookie with no experience is capable of bringing down the world’s financial markets!

The McCain Campaign is blaming all of the Democrats in the Democratically “lead” Congress – keeping in mind that with a Republican President, the Democrats would only have the lead if they had more than 66 seats (Senate), which they do not; they have 51.

Amidst all of this blame, behind all of the mud slinging and crap flying – I haven’t heard one person speak up and offer a solution to this crisis; except Barack Obama.  Barack would rather focus on the real issues at hand and let the children of politics (McCain, Palin) soil themselves in their playpen.  Because while Palin is claiming Barack is “pallin’ around with terrorists” she was busy supporting a campaign that pushed to seceed from the United States.  A Campaign that is lead by a man who has openly admitted his hatred of the United States and everything the American People stand for.

So let it fly.  Wave your shiny pinwheels around and distract the mindless masses.  But don’t try and come to me with these flimsy ‘facts’ about what’s what.  If I want facts, I’ll do the research.  If I want a pile of shit thrown in my face, I’ll come find you.

Professor out.
