IMO The stock market is not a very good indicator of the US economy overall.

The Jobless number is not as important as the overall jobs number unless considering the liability of endless unemployment benefits.

What truly worries me and should worry everyone is not so much the President's failure at cutting the deficit by half during his term as he promised but rather increasing it, each and every year and especially when compared to GDP.

So basically pick and choose whatever you like to discredit Obama.. Ok.. If Obama was a republican I am sure you would say that most of the deficiet was already set in motion by his predecessor but of course you will disagree with me since we are talking hypothetical and you will also pick and choose your hypoththeticals to discredit Obama. Who was the last Democrat you voted for after leaving college?

Tammy Duckworth

before that Paul Simon

I've never voted for a Dem for President but have voted for an independent and a green party candidate. Perot and Nader.

Look I just want government, whether it be the left or right out of virtually everything other than protecting us from attack.

so.....
today the virginia ledge passed a bill requiring women to get an ultrasound before getting an abortion. at least they changed from the invasive one they'd originally written. yeah, some progress. the rep gov expected to sign it into law.


and washington state.....judge just ruled that pharmacists can refuse to dispense certain drugs if they violate their religious beliefs. oh, that's wonderful. so, go to the counter and some guy doesn't do his job because of his personal opinion, so now he can refuse YOU because of HIS opinions. fantfreakingtastic!! look, if people have beliefs and opinions, great-but why are they allowed to affect someone else and someone else's life because of something they believe? so, if i worked at mcdonalds, and i told some fatass they didn't need a big mac, do you think i'd get fired? i bet i would. but if it's a religious belief, it would be quite all right.
what bs.

For some, "religious freedom" means they get to push their religion on others. They forget that others are also entitled to freedom from their religion being shoved down their maws.
