America voted for change in 2006, and we got it!



Apparently, what you got is what you voted for in 2000.

And gas increased by 600% during Bush's watch. His tax cut - job creation, cost Americans their jobs and homes. He wants to make his tax cuts permanent; bye, bye jobs and more homes.

Yet you a-holes in La-La land keep electing Democrats over and over again.



Both parties are guilty. Therefore vote Republican.


Wrong!

Both parties are guilty of being retarded. Flip a coin and hope for the best.

Let the American Presidential Special Olympics BEGIN!


2008! WOO HOO!

When I transferred my savings from Slovakia here, 1 USD was about 40SK (Slovak Crowns). Now it is 1 to 19.... My savings are worth less than half.

But, that won't last forever. These are waves, they do occur periodically.

dag, They do occur periodically, but this one is going to be for a very long time. Hang onto your hat, because its downward spiral has just begun.

Not true; I sympathize for most Americans who have lost their jobs, health insurance, homes, and/or are paying more for fuel and food than they can afford - for themselves and their family.

My wife and I saved 15 to 20 percent of our income when we worked from early in our marriage, and we don't have the financial worries that is now plaguing many American families. It had nothing to do with "greed" or depending on someone else.

We've lost more in our retirement funds this past month than many Americans earn, but we're still far from losing our shelter or starving.

It's called planning ahead for the rainy day.

The same is the case with me.
Thanks for projecting logical views
