"There's tremendous turmoil in our financial markets and on Wall Street," McCain said. "People are frightened by these events. Our economy, I think still, the fundamentals of our economy are strong. But these are very, very difficult times."

That is what John McCain said... if you go back to my previous post about what he meant by "fundamentals of our economy", how is he wrong?

Fundamentals equal the very basics of economics.

What he fails to mention is how the lack of regulation has helped cause these problems. And to find the douchebag who deregulated just about everything...




Like I have said numerous times before...

This country is f.ucked with either candidate.

It's pretty funny when McCain says things that even the batshit crazy Republicans on here can't defend.

Good thing we have people like Jim around to remind us about lipstick and pigs. That's clearly more relevant to who would better serve the American people than unimaginably stupid quotes like "the fundamentals of our economy are strong."

Lori, the richest of the rich have gotten a complete free ride under Bush, and enough's enough. Making wealthy people wealthier is the only thing the Bush administration has consistently stood for, and look at where we are economically. The average salary in America has gone down over $2,000. Guess not enough is "trickling down," eh? Cry me a river about billionaires having to pay an extra couple percent more in taxes, we need an administration that has the average American's interests in mind foremost.

What can Obama do to increase salaries with all of these free trade agreements? Hmm? What's going to prevent employers from taking their business overseas and hiring people to work for practically nothing?

It's over, Johnny. You'll be here again in 2012 complaining about wages and lack of jobs.

There is no threat to any of our borders. Our military needs a complete revamping. What we're doing in Iraq with paying off Sunni militias is embarrassing. We could've paid them off without invading and supplied them with weapons and training to overthrow Saddam. Would've been much cheaper.

George W. Bush is really not the President. His father is. And he is, and always will be, a disaster.

I will post a response when time allows...life is interrupting!
I know this is a setup,but I will answer you later.
