		<description>&lt;p&gt;This economic crisis has deep roots in the system itself, I discovered this article on the net which helps to underestand the root cause:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://democracyandsocialism.com/Articles/WhyRecession.html&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;http://democracyandsocialism.c.....ssion.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;Thank you for the link at 117 to the RawStory article and its 59 comments.  It surely is all I ever wanted to know about Paulson, and then some!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The Senate should have handcuffed him as he came in their chamber door.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;Much to think about in your comment.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Consider:  McCain gets elected, dies, Palin becomes pres., Who does her handlers pick as VP who will be Cheney II…?  (Addington as Atty Gen’l??)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;A blogger wrote that a student of John Yoo’s at Berkeley says his Monday class was cancelled because Yoo had been called to DC about the Meltdown Mess.  Is this warning that Bush/Cheney are going to utilize Exec Privilege again and skip congressional action to get the $700 billion AND guarantee of no oversight or court action?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;…..maybe that is the reason for putting the 3rd Army unit on US soil in preparation for crowd control…..&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Thanks to all posters here, all your views help to sort out what is most probably really going on in our country.  Keep up the good work!&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;Gee your really think so? &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;McCain won’t make a year if elected.  I give him 3-7 if not.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Poor, John “the wicker man” McCain.  I feel for the poor old fool.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

&lt;p&gt;Ok, I was talking with a “reasonable” woman at work today, and I nearly fell over when she opined that the Repugs actually WANT McC to bite the dust in office so that the automaton can be puppeted by Darth again!!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I have to admit, I thought about this more than once throughout the afternoon!   Whad’ya think, folks?&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;Totally OT but a &lt;a href=&quot;http://thinkprogress.org/2008/09/22/court-release-photos/#comment-5243396&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;mxsquirrel &lt;/a&gt; at thinkprogress wrote some woids I edited for meter - if anyone will contribute a classic Chuck Berry guitar part I’ll return w/ this song. Read on…&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Deep down in Arizona close to Mexico&lt;br /&gt;
Way back up in the cactus where it never ever snows,&lt;br /&gt;
There stood an ancient mansion made of gold and wood&lt;br /&gt;
Wherein lived a corrupt bastard named Johnny McCain,&lt;br /&gt;
Who never learned ’bout Sunni or Shia so well,&lt;br /&gt;
But he’ll pretend to chase Osama to the gates of Hell.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Go! Go!, Go! Johnny! Go!&lt;br /&gt;
Go!, Go! Johnny! Go!&lt;br /&gt;
Go!, Go! Johnny! Go!&lt;br /&gt;
Go!, Go! Johnny! Go!&lt;br /&gt;
Go!, Johnny McCain!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;He would carry his bribe money in a gunnysack&lt;br /&gt;
Go sit ‘neath a tree and count his Keating kickbacks,&lt;br /&gt;
Old K street lobbyist’d see him sittin’ in the shade,&lt;br /&gt;
Laughing at the bullshit and the flip flops he’d made,&lt;br /&gt;
The people passing by, they would stop and say,&lt;br /&gt;
Oh my but that old mummy really hates him the gays.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Go! Go!, Go! Johnny! Go!&lt;br /&gt;
Go!, Go! Johnny! Go!&lt;br /&gt;
Go!, Go! Johnny! Go!&lt;br /&gt;
Go!, Go! Johnny! Go!&lt;br /&gt;
Go!, Johnny McCain!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Once, Arizona couldn’t host a superbowl,&lt;br /&gt;
‘Cause the leaders there were all a group of white supremacist trolls.&lt;br /&gt;
Ev Meacham, angry fascist, was a goose-stepping man,&lt;br /&gt;
A millionaire, a senator, straight from the Ku Klux Klan.&lt;br /&gt;
McCain was a maverick when it came to MLK,&lt;br /&gt;
Then Ev the cracker donned his robes against the holiday.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Go! Go!, Go! Johnny! Go!&lt;br /&gt;
Go!, Go! Johnny! Go!&lt;br /&gt;
Go!, Go! Johnny! Go!&lt;br /&gt;
Go!, Go! Johnny! Go!&lt;br /&gt;
Go!, Johnny McCain!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;His momma told him someday you will be an old man&lt;br /&gt;
And you will be the leader of a murderous clan&lt;br /&gt;
Many people blown to bits from miles around,&lt;br /&gt;
To see you launch the nukes and take all of the rest of us down,&lt;br /&gt;
Maybe someday, you’ll see the mushroom clouds bright,&lt;br /&gt;
Sayin’ “Johnny McCain, he pushed the button tonight”!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Go! Go!, Go! Johnny! Go!&lt;br /&gt;
Go!, Go! Johnny! Go!&lt;br /&gt;
Go!, Go! Johnny! Go!&lt;br /&gt;
Go!, Go! Johnny! Go!&lt;br /&gt;

		<description>&lt;p&gt;all of the above.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;Fratto insisted that the plan was not slapped together and had been drawn up as a contingency &lt;strong&gt;over previous months and weeks &lt;/strong&gt;by administration officials &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I think it was probably more like two to three years…”, I’m not an economist, but even I knew this was a distinct posibility since 2005…&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Anyone that tells you that you have to do something immediately is a used-car salesman…buyer beware!&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;I was afraid I’d heard of something along those lines.  Think of everything, don’t they?  Wonder why they were anticipating civil unrest, given the nearly terminal level of apathy we’ve sunk to.  Must’ve been something pretty bad.  Soon anything bad yet?&lt;/p&gt;</description>
