Trillions in stock market value - gone. Trillions in retirement savings - gone. A huge chunk of the money you paid for your house - gone.

Live vote: Do you think bailout will work?
The financial crisis has sparked confusion over whether Americans' investments and bank accounts are safe. Here's what you should know about how the crisis might affect you.
The Bush administration sketched out a multi-faceted effort on Friday to confront the worst U.S. financial crisis in decades.
With all your "Facist" talk you sound like a right-wing conservative fundamentalist like Sarah Palin and Michele Bachmann. If you really dislike this country so much, go live in Iraq, Iran, Pakistan or Afghanistan and see how you like it. Oh, that's right, . . . speak out against the government in one of those countries and you'll be saying goodbye to your head!

Voting left or right is voting for the same thing!!! Vote third party, yes. In 1913 Congress sold us out to private banks, so it was way before World War II.
John,
My brother is named John so bear with me. He's younger than I and pretty ignorant about such things as international relationships or national politics.
That being said brother, you didn't address the issues poised but simply spouted your talking points with the same force of will as my dogs have when they are peeing on my garden. How about examining the issues, doing some research and responding to the things I have said?
I've been watching both the election process and this "crisis" that has been created by democrats and I simply cannot see why I should be responsible for social engineering of people who hold Karl Marx in such high esteem.
I am not brainwashed by bush or obama. They are equally useless to me at this time but I will posit the fact that this nation is far better off having "W" as our president than Mr. Kerry. 911 was an event sociologic that shook the foundations of this country and it's narrow minded agend driven people such as you who disregard the fact that this country is at WAR. To sit there while democrats have held the reigns of our country's fiscal policy for going on 8 years is idiotic and it is dangerous propaganda. Congress passes funding measures or didn't you read the constitution?
We are at war. We don't need the international community (corrupt as it is) to approve our agenda. We also do not need people like you trying to subvert our men and women who are fighting for our freedom. Do not even try to give me that "blood for oil" or "wmd" argument. If Saddam could bury jets in the desert, don't you think he could bury his nerve gas?
Here's another thing for you to chew on. What if that has been disbursed between the 10 or so nations in the area who are actively trying to do us harm? I guess that your narrow vision won't allow you to see beyond what your masters tell you is the truth.
Get used to following someone's lead. If you have your way, this country will resemble the soviet union in a few years and perhaps we can meet one day in a bread line.
