Bush-Economy Strong!

Actually I think the broader economy is ok. This is more of a "rich man's" crash than anything really effecting the average guy on the street.
What planet do you live on? Obviously not this one.
Tell the many thousands of homeowners who are in default, and who are losing their life savings, that this is a 'rich man's' crash.
The highly placed Wall Street Executives in their oak paneled offices are in no danger of losing their homes, or their lifestyle.
They can run their company into the ground through their own greed, hubris and stupidity, and just go sailing.
Not so the average wage earner.
Get real.
Your exclamation is both humorous and sad. It concerns me that so many, apparently poorly educated, Americans will vote for John McCain without considering the dire consequences of a Palin Presidency. I understand that for many working class Americans her appeal comes from being able to identify with her and think "she is just like me." But a Palin Presidency is certainly not what this country needs right now. We have already learned the consequences of electing someone with weak mental capacity, inexplicable stubbornness, and of fundamentalist religious leanings. God help us if we've learned nothing from our mistake.
