Downtrending economy = some kind of connection to Obama's politics = a symptom of Bond's intelligence?

I'm not making an inflammatory remark. It's just inquisitive commentary!

Sorry Xantar, that was not targeted at you. I more meant the ignorant republicans remark. I consider myself more liberal most of the time, but I think regardless of how you vote a little respect is due to all.

Xantar, I think you're being more than unfair to Bond. His statement was that the downturn in the economy would lead us to elect Oabma who would then instate his economic plans with a democrat run house and senate. This economy will not be kind to those considered to be establishment, and McCain is part of the establishment while Obama is looked at as an outsider.

If you view the term Obamanomics as negative, thats your take on it, probably because its structured like reaganomics which I believe you disagree with.

Overall, this is a complete mess on all fronts and both parties are acting like petulant children. Pelosi's speech before the vote took place was possibly one of the single most self-centered, partisan and disgraceful things I've ever heard of happening while the nation is in crisis. The Republican's response to it was no better. Overall this was a sad day for the country.
