In my defense I was stinking drunk when I dished up that post.

So there (or is it their?). Credibility issue solved sweet cakes.

The party is over in the United States. We are about to witness the lasting decline of the US consumer and his world dominance.

We have yet to feel the shock waves of the financial collapse, but if you want to get an idea of how you're life is about to change take a look at the MTAs hearings today. Like many, they are hemorrhaging. Fare hikes and service cuts. Everyone everywhere will be doing it, this is just the tip of the iceberg. Wait until we start have one million a month unemployed. We're on our way.

Do you still think it's a good idea to rack up credit card debt and spend, spend, spend? With all the money currently being printed by the Fed inflation is coming. Might not be for another 12-18 months, but it's coming.

Anyone know the meaning of stagflation? You will in 2010-2011. So will all your neighbors.

Dump you're US stocks, cut up your credit cards and put your savings in gold.

It is time to start saving again, just like your grandparents did.

That's cool. I and several million Americans have a bunch of enemies in finance. And we don't really care what they have to say right now.


Clearly, all people who work in the finance industry are to blame for what happened at Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae. So clearly, all Trubrit's finance friends are to blame and their views should be discounted.

Impeccable logic as always.

I disagree with you when you say all people who work in finance are to blame for our economic problems, but I DO agree with you when you say Trubrit's finance friends are to blame. You finally utter something intelligent sinik!

Congratulations to all of the Obama supporters out there. You deserve what's coming. For the rest of us, we don't deserve it, but we're going to get it anyway. And, don't forget, if anything doesn't work out as planned over the next four years, it's all Bush's fault.


I'm curious - what's "coming" ?


Ask Joe Biden. He's been predicting some bad sh!t if O was elected.

Ooohhh, scary! Gotta love the conservative fear factor, it worked so well yesterday.

At least we know who isn't "coming".

Dear America,

I think I love you.

I have never felt more kinship for my fellow Americans as I do tonight. My countrymen finally saw through the hate, anger and fear that is the Conservative Right and conjured up enough courage to elect a man named Barack Hussein Obama. They did so because they see in President-Elect Obama everything John McCain and George Bush are not. Someone who will, among other things, regulate the economy, fix our foreign policy, ensure healthcare for the sick and stimulate the growth of a clean/green energy industry.

John McCain gave an impressive and gracious speech tonight. It was the John McCain of 2000, when he cast himself as a center-right candidate above the fray of down and dirty politics. It was the McCain who endeared himself to many independents with his honest talk and political courage. Sadly, this was not the McCain of the 2008 political season. To start with, he lost all credibility - and the race - when he selected his incompetent running mate. America didn\'t want another rube in the White House, they wanted CHANGE. You know, people with qualifications.

But it sure has been a damaging eight years of Bush, Cheney, Rove, DeLay, Frist, Rumsfeld, Hastert, Scooter, Ridge, Ashcroft and Gonzales. Finally, FINALLY, it is over.

Thank you America!

Ps - I will inform Justices Stevens and Ginsburg that it is now safe for them to retire from the Supreme Court. Scalia, on the other hand, may want to postpone his purchase of that condo in Boca Raton.

Yours,
Dusted

Thinking about it - Obama is going to be a great anti immigration deterrant.

Sooner or later, it's not going to be worth strapping yourself to a piece of polystyrene and trying to float to Miami, amigo!

Is Putin giving Obama the thumbs up too?

Ahhhh, and that Hitler bloke used to love Neville Chaimberlain! Lotta love in the air tonight, comrades!


Who cares what this foreigner thinks? He's a disgusting European with germs who's stealing the wealth of America. Get a green card before I deport you limey. Like Brian Em, you wear glasses and pretend to be a trendy graphic designer when you're nothing more than a hipster republican. Just look at Brian's facebook account and you'll see what I'm talking about, you British socialist.

GOD BLESS AMERICA AND SARAH PALIN.

Re-read my post - I wrote "successful small businesses" - as in small businesses that generate in excess of $250K income for the owners, who can re-invest that money right back into the business. If Obama taxes that money there will be less re-investment and less growth.

Don't worry about picking on me, or my presence on this board - I am close to retirement and my inventions are still creating jobs for people.

US Patents, honey, thirty of which I am a holder of, are good for 21 years. So get used to me being on this board, noob, cuz I ain't going anywhere.


You need to step off jclady. Gentlemen like injcsince81 and myself don't take guff from unsuccessful small business owning "honeys". For all we know you're a "community organizer" and a card carrying communist.

Injcsince81 and I are capitalists. How many patents do you even have? I'm guessing like only nine or something. Pathetic.

Injcsince81 and I are wealthy individuals. We are approaching retirement age and we have nothing better to do but monitor this board and question your facts. Get used to it "noob", or should I call you injcsince07!

Re: Sharpton NYC Protests Planned for Wednesday
#10

Al Sharpton is the wrong person to lead the protesting against Sean Bell's murder.

Read the clipping below. In 2005 he appeared in TV commercials as a pitchman for a predatory car title lending company that targeted low-income earners. These short-term high interest loans secured by a car title can be even more disastrous than payday loans. They trap borrowers into long-term debt. As more and more Americans now face mounting debt in a weak economy, and predatory lending has ravaged low-income individuals, you wonder why it is the NY Times and Washington Post have not followed up on Sharpton's callous, selfish salesman pitch that sold-out his people three years ago.

(Washington Post, 11/29/2005):

Loan Ranger: If You've Got a Car, He's Got the Keys to Cash
By Amy Argetsinger and Roxanne Roberts

In commercials airing locally, the ever-colorful Sharpton stands on a stage with an American flag and happily declares, "Finally, there's someone in Virginia who will loan money to people the big guys won't loan to."

Car title lenders give cash to those who own their cars free and clear, with interest rates that can approach 300 percent annually. The lender can repossess and sell the car if the short-term loan is not repaid on time. The controversial practice is permitted in about half the states, and consumer groups are pushing hard for more regulation. "These are predatory small loans," said Jean Ann Fox of the Consumer Federation of America.

"If I felt this is in any way abusive, I would stop doing the ads," Sharpton said yesterday. He filmed three commercials for LoanMax, a Georgia-based company with 150 offices across the country, and said he considers these loans different from predatory ones because the borrowers have assets (the car) but not the credit rating to get bank loans.

"The ads are working very well," said LoanMax President Rod Aycox, who declined to say what Sharpton was paid. The spots began airing last week in Virginia, Iowa and New Mexico, states where legislators have proposed capping interest rates, and Aycox plans to continue them for another few weeks. "People just love Reverend Sharpton."
