Dow 7000.....


Like I have any clue what exactly that means , but I can understand that it is , well, not a good thing. People are scared, people are confused and for GOOD reason. If ever we have needed real leadership it is today. I'm sure the damn thing will close above 7000 at days end, but to see the stock market of the United States cut in half , in about a week, is like I said, scary.
What is also scary is the fact that McCain Palin are doing NOTHING at all except screaming Bill Ayers, Bill Ayers, Bill Ayers. Are these two people - and this entire party - SO morally bankrupt that all they can do , in this time of real crisis,( not some made up Carl Rove, LEVEL ORANGE crisis), are they so out of touch with the American Peoples needs, so blinded by gross ambition that all they can do is fling poo? These next 25 days can not go by fast enough.
Not morally bankrupt but the real thing: The entire country of Iceland went bankrupt yesterday. What on Earth does that even mean? Did people there get up, eat their ice and seal meat breakfast and go off to work and school? How does a country go bankrupt? 
From the I've-got-friends-in-high-places file. (This one is a real head scratcher.) So, the basis of all this panic we are dealing with is the fact that there is this credit crunch, due to the entire country thinking they had to have a bathroom as big as what used to be a family of four house, and then could not pay their mortgage. No credit to be had any more ever. Double secret probation for you all... UNLESS you are the Republican Party! 
Bankrupt Wachovia lends Republicans $8 million
"The National Republican Congressional Committee, trailing its Democratic counterpart considerably in cash on hand, has secured an $8 million loan to spend on House races during the last few weeks of the campaign, according to sources. The NRCC reported $14.4 million in cash on hand as of Aug. 31, compared to $54 million in the bank for the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee. As it did last cycle, the NRCC is procuring its loan from Wachovia Bank, sources confirmed." 
It's good to be the King.
