All day long every day it is one depressing thing or the other. It just gets worse and worse. It is bad news 24 hours a day 100 events an hour. It is getting overwhelming! I turned the radio on while I got my coffee this morning and I hear the tent cities are growing and getting crowded with thousands to come as homelessness and joblessness continues to worsen. As the situation worsens Larceny, domestic violence increasingly aggressive pan handling worsening as cities are forced to cut services including the increasingly violent police.Hell not now, I shut the radio off so I could at least have peace for a moment while I drank my coffee!
Many of you remember the 8 years of destruction of your'e privacy, civil rights, safety nets, consumer rights, and over all way of life. Bush's entire agenda was to widen the gap between the have not's destroying your entire level of comfort and way of life, our reality, as he endeavored to replace our America with his version, his new societal order. We all thought the entire mess he made was bad. Some of us though new it was going to get worse much worse and it is!
World Bank: Economy worst since Depression I reiterate this is just beginning and will get much, much worse! I just heard a Pastor was shot 5 times in front of his congregation while preaching to them. Also that China was harassing unarmed US research vessels in international waters. Bizarre but the Chinese crew was stripped down to their underwear and running around haranguing the American crew. What the hell is that? How much more? What the heel else is going to happen in the worsening news department!
US Stocks Fall on Buffet, World Bank Warning About Economy falling off a cliff
Violence Flares near Pakistan, Afghan Border Next to the Swat Valley, gee what a coincidence. Not! You may have read yesterday's story on how this is just barely beginning and the Taliban is very pleased they now have a safe haven with Sharia law. Their intention is to spread that throughout Pakistan and Afghanistan. They are not going to relent until they get what they want.
I reiterate! As I keep saying the battle lines are still just forming and this will go on for generations unless we capitulate!
This is a major defeat for the United States, NATO Pakistan, India, Karzai, even Iran and indeed the entire world as hordes of trained fighters already swarmed from the Swat area and now that we are ramping up in Afghanistan Pakistan has capitulated. Please read the entire story. This is not good for our successful future! The Taliban get their wish
* If we are to have a victory Russia, India, Iran, indeed the entire so called civilized world is going to have to unite. This region throughout history has never been defeated militarily and will not now unless we all realize the future we want will not be unless as a whole we realize how critical the situation is and that united we stand divided we fall, one at a time!
Many thought things would get better under Obama but forget it. We were wrong about nothing and because of the fiasco Bush set up here and around the world that will be playing out beyond our control for generation's to come it is just getting worse and worse and the worst is yet to come. I know most do not realize it but as far as the Taliban, Islamist's, or maybe Islam as a whole, this battle is barely getting under way. Our only chance is to get the entire remainder of the world to realize all their ways of life are over unless they come together and deal with this. Everything in totality is barely just beginning and the worst thanks to Bush is yet to come despite anyone's rhetoric and Obama's efforts!
* Obama returned science to America and took it out of politics. Obama thank God seems to do something outstanding every day to undo the great damage Bush has done to America. He seems to be the only bright spot in our lives today. God or whoever please help him!
** One final reiteration as Buffet and the world are realizing how bad this is and how bad it will get: The Second Great Depression set up by Greenspan was a given regardless of all these bailouts. at this rate the 10% unemployment Obama warned about is going to happen in about 6 months regardless! All the promises and trillions in bailouts will do nothing but stave off the inevitable and speed up the bankrupting of America also set in motion by Bush.
I have written it numerous times but I just want you to remember the great Depression and a couple parallel facts with this one! ** Remember it was the Republicans at the helm the last time this happened and while FDR's New Deal did a lot to bring us back and Obama wants to replicate it and it is necessary that it took WW2 to get us out of it!
**** It is important to remember as I have written about this too, too many times but Bush has laid the foundation not only for the bankrupting of America but WW3 to get us out of it or so they think! I am banking on Obama being able to turn the world around and pull us back from the brink! I want to close in saying it will never stop killing me that Bush left proud of the damage he wrought on us and the world and he seems to have gotten away with it!

I agree we haven't seen nothing yet. The odds are stacked against Obama plus he has some of his own party members against him. The banks are going to want hundreds of billions more and we will have nothing to show for it. We are so screwed at every level.
The word sign in was WING SCRU.
Is that an omen?
One fly
Whoa that is an Omen! Yes this is barely just beginning! All those bailouts will do nothing but further the bankrupting of America.
Obama is on his own! I do not think he even realizes it yet. The party's are too busy playing their standard games and worrying about themselves!
Well you must remember that the American economy is more like an oil tanker than a speed boat. You can't turn an oil tanker around on a dime. Yes I'm optomistic about the situation in the long run but remember the problems we face were over 10 years in the making.
Obama is being critisized for trying to do too much at the one time but what people fail to realize is that this is all interelated. Obama is smart enough to know that if we don't take care of health care and social security now then we'll be back in the same sinking boat in the near future.
GOOD NEWS!!
CEO says Citi operating at a profit, DOW up over 333 as I'm posting this!

It really peeves me that Obama is being criticized for trying to do to much too fast and all at once. He doesn't have a damn choice. Everything has been ignored or purposely allowed to degrade. It all has to be fixed and now. The Bee hives should just shut up and put up!

I know! I have not focused on it because of other problems but let us hope good news continues. The bad news is overwhelming!
Bush's destruction of America will continue for years after his carcass is gone.
No President will be able to undue all the carnage of Bush and the Republican party.
I loved that graphic! What it doesn't show is, when Capitalism is put in the grave, Feudalism will rise as a Zombie. We got trouble comin' folks.
I am confused though. You make it sound as if the only solution is to squash and defeat the Taliban. Try this on for size, my frustrated friend: Get the hell off of their lands! Allow water to seek it's own level.
The Taliban's 'alleged' human-rights violations are no worse than China's 'proven' ones. Not many are advocating going over and kicking THEIR asses. Oh, I forgot... they're big enough to stand up and bloody our noses in return.
And what about the many small, despotic, human-rights violating countries we support, like Saudi Arabia, Pakistan, and Israel? Oh, never mind.... they're kissing our asses right now, so it's acceptable.
Don't believe for one second, all the Neocon bullshit about the Islamists looking for Armageddon and Martyrdom. That's the Necon/Zionist goal. The Muslims have no wish for self-anillation, they just want us to leave them alone, to live and govern themselves as THEY see fit.
We keep getting fed this huge platter of steaming shit, that Theocracies are terrible things. Maybe for us they are, but maybe for them they're not. Hell, they've lived under some form of it for over 5,000 years. When did God die and turn over His job to the United States government? I must have missed that news cycle.
It is ludicrous, absurd, and downright farcical, that 99.9% of American 'christians',have never held, much less, read or studied the Qur-an; yet have the audacity to describe it as an evil, hate-filled book. What???????
I can site them more violent passages in the Old Testament of their Holy Bible. The basic tenets of the Qur'an and the New Testament are one and the same: Love God, and love thy neighbor as thyself.
Good post, Jim, I can feel your angst pouring out of my monitor. Imma gonna send Bro over! ;)
Yeah, What Wally said.
I think when Wally said, " That's the Necon/Zionist goal.", he meant it's a win/win situation for them. They exterminate all those pesky Muslims and get them off the land that holds 'our oil', while at the same time, having many of the American poor killed off by the war (the rich and wealthy don't go into battle). They will then go to the 'fodder pool' back home for replacements, thereby reducing the poor's consumption of THEIR resources.
This sh*t is sick, and needs to be stopped........NOW!
Larry Buddy
You're not kidding, here and around the world and if we are really lucky only for many generations!
Brother
If we would only get off their land and it would end, I wish to hell it was that easy.
They want Spain and many other lands now long in other hands, It is too late to go back now.
Everyone has to be happy where they are and that will never happen!
We have screwed them over for too long that is why it always pissed me off when the chief scum use to say "we didn't do anything wrong" AAARRRGGGHHH!
You know it really stinks as for Saudi Arabia the record head lopper offer you can do what you want as long as we get what we want. I hate it!
Brother you and Wally are two peas in a pod!
