    I couldn't agree more!

    And I wonder who Puckstop the Pessimist will give credit to in two years if things are better?

    If things get better? I'll give the man his credit. I will.

    I am not a pessimist, I am a realist. What is happening now has happened to countless economies throughout history. The result is always the same when governments do not let things play out as they should.

    I have no love for Mr Obama, just as I had no love for Mr McCain, however I feel that he will do his best to turn things around.

    And since you seem to have all the answers, perhaps you should run in the next election.

    Fair enough.

    And I CLEARLY do not have all the answers. I just know what history has (should?) have taught us. But that is also a problem today. We don't teach history as it was, we teach it through a prism of Political Correctness. But I digress as that is a whole other can of worms.

    Also, I am sorry if I come across a bit crass... But, consider that I like posting in the Dog House because I am heavily outnumbered, LOL, and like it that way. Preaching to the choir is no fun at all.


    As for Obama turning things around. IMO, the best thing he can do is VERY little. So unless he changes who he has been, he is going to spend and spend and spend money we don't have. It just what liberals do. His "NEW, New Deal" will fail just like FDR's did. FDR's New Deal made things worse. It took WW2 to end the first Great Depression. Of course that is not how it is taught....

    Does anyone else thing a "mindless love fest" is better than a "mindless hate fest?"

    This is a true story...there was a letter to the editor in the right wing media here in OC...the guy was irrate because the mother-in-law is moving to the White House. He huffed...who is paying for her rent and food? What does Michelle have to do that she needs help with her kids? Then he throws in a "of course...they are liberals!"

    I guess he doesn't know the First Family - Rep or Dem pays for their own food! <<head shake>> Mindless hate...

    I tend to agree with what Puckstop says.

    And why call anyone who didn't vote for Obama LOSERS? I don't think it works that way. This wasn't a game (at least I hope not!) If everyone in America had the same views and opinions, then it wouldn't be America at all. And it would be very boring.


    Anyway, I'm not sure if I'll be watching. I'll probably catch glimpses if I happen to walk into a room where it is on, but other than that I'm not changing my routine for it.

    I hope he makes a good President. Time will tell.
