CNN has gotten on my last nerve today.
There's been no rational discussion. It's all PANIC! all the time.

Where was all of this outrage when we were lied into a war where tens of thousands DIED? Where was this outrage when Bush bankrupted our economy with tax cuts for the rich and a giveaway to the drug companies? Where was this outrage as thousands were priced out of the housing market or suckered into unaffordable loans?

Now that they're losing some money in their investment accounts, they're screaming about Washington and demanding action?

:puke:

4. Which goes to show you how encompassing THIS situation is...

It's far worse than any of the things you mentioned.


And if there's no bailout... you'll find out soon enough.



But enjoy the next couple weeks.... after that... I'll see you at the soup kitchen. Save me a seat.

6. I think you've lost your mind.
We're in the middle of a panic, not a lot different than the panics that have come before.

Life goes on.
