A good, albeit depressing read. I would love to hear a reasoned response from the right.

Patrick... any thoughts. Maybe Dee, Mike, or Professor Donald would care to deal with the specifics of this article.

Well, I am sad to announce that that has been what I have been saying all along.

Shaw,

Three times in my life I have myself absolutely at the bottom of my luck and broke...absolutely totally broke, lost everything, and not knowing what tomorrow would bring...

You will be surprised at what you can accomplish, achieve, and withstand and or stand up to when called to, when you have to.

Never lose faith in yourself and or the future. Life changes but we can deal with the changes...I just hope for future generations we learn that greed is evil and destructive....

I have wondered when the 60's would return...and it appears that they have...its just a matter of time.

The whole time conservatives were being dittoheads the crooks were stealing this country blind.

Barack Obama is in the same situation FDR found himself in at the beginning of his term. The only difference is the stock market crashed in 1929 and FDR took over in 1933 so by then the damage was deep. Right now our crash was in 2008 and people still believe it will get better in months from now (listen to fox news they already are seeing improvements! :) )

We will get through this but it will not be easy...never lose the faith in yourself and or mankind...

There still is good in the world.

Shaw Kenawe said...

yes, there is good in this world.

And two of them are here.

Thanks. Both of you.

I'm off tomorrow.

Dave: I'll make it short. We're hozed. :)

Shaw: Group hug?
