* will be saying that for sure.

Pity he's allowed millions of jobs to go offshore...

Pity he's done nothing about the energy problem.

Pity that he'll sign a bankruptcy bill that will kill millions of Americans yt he expects us to blindly help out his mess when the time comes.

I'll help... once I get my own debt paid back first. And I'm almost there. FWIW.

3. Of course *IF* we didn't have to worry about: How to heat our home..

and water in NORTHERN NY, putting a bit of gas in the car so we can at least get to the market once a week (which is more then a few miles away since we live in the country), paying for electricity (which is also bound to increase), paying school and property taxes (which will also have to go up to cover the cost of gas and oil for the buses and schools) and of course, since we actually need to eat once in a while, putting food on the table (and in the furkids bowls) with an ever growing grocery bill otherwise heck yeah I'd be more then happy to help the economy by shopping a bit. :eyes:

Other than some gift cards I'm going to use up tomorrow along with groceries, that's it for the week (if not the forseeable future)
