Where were you when the stock market crashed?
Okay, the year was 2008, now 15 years later I was asked where I was when the real Great Depression hit. Well I was at home, I know, I should have been in class, hello it was just after noon on a weekday, but I was skipping. I had just gotten a new TV (hello, hadn't watched TV in like eight weeks. I need a fix.) Okay well I was sitting there watching FOX NEWS waiting for a re-run of a past fave TV show of mine to start (fyi Crossing Jordan, back when TV was good,) anyway, It was coming up on the hour when FOX started reporting the DOW was falling, and that stocks were being sold off so fast that they couldn't keep up with the numbers. (Let's just say that I didn't catch Crossing Jordan that day, I didn't see that show for another four years, or any show for that matter. ) By the end of the day there was mass chaos, stuff was fly off the selves so fast that we all got whip lash. The World came to a standstill that day, and life was changed forever. It was reported that over three thousand people committed suicide that day, with thousands more in the following days. People died of starvation. Heck, I was really sick, I wasn't as prepared as I thought I was (Though I did reach my goal weight. Not in a good way though.) That was the beginning of what for the next three and a half years would be the Greatest Depression of all time, and life truly was never the same after that....Here 15 years later, I don't know if we've fully recovered yet. We are all more careful with our money, we have stocked fridges and pantry's. Money hidden everywhere, including under the mattress, and in shoe boxes. We don't trust banks. TV is not something we are obsessed with anymore (that has more to do with the fact that all TV shows, and most movies suck every worse then they did in the first decade of the 21st century.) But life sure is different. Nothing like it was back when I was 22.
Okay crazy future thingy is done. And now I go back to watch TV online on Hulu, truly obsessed
with what will no doubt be humanity's downfall. And Shalom.
Obama's Terrorist connections? Naive or liar.

Two Quicky sick
1) A iphone app, really? Where'd you get the money, from your voters.
Good use of public funds, not. They didn't give it to you to throw away...more on this later
2) A YouTube video with a "Make a contribution to this candidate" button....so both google and youtube are supporting Obama. That's kind of sad really. Don't you think he'll cut into you money. And he'll make this blog disappear if elected. Freedom of speech, i think not...more on this later

Bailout Passes Senate
Bailout Passes Senate 74-25
Treasury’s $700 billion rescue plan for the financial markets passed the Senate Wednesday night, giving the White House new confidence it has turned the corner and can win final approval from Congress by Friday.
Senator John McCain and Barack Obama both supported the bill.Shady Obama Ties
Also check out their website The Barack Book, mocking both Obama and facebook, which it
looks like. Funny love it.
Sometime Hollywood is RIGHT!
Talks about how there are really conservatives in Hollywood, though there aren't many and they tend to be hushed. There should be more and they should speak up
Pelosi Used Political Donations...for something not right
Pelosi paid husband with PAC funds, using $99,000 for rent, utilities, accounting fees.
Great House Leader there ma'am.
Yeah well, some people really shouldn't be anything but a treasurer, shelling out the cash that needs to be shelled out. Not being a house leader in the United States Congress.I've always thought she was too sneaky and scary.......a disgrace to women everywhere, she should get booted out of office and into jail.
Make and example out of her I say.
Right man? No Free speech stopper 2
Obama, Not Bush, The Quasi-Fascist on Free Speech
Barack Obama poses as a champion of true American values. He sees himself as "a symbol of the possibility of America returning to our best traditions."
In reality, though, Barack Obama is just another in a long line of Chicago-style, free speech-squelching political thugs springing from the festering pit of Democratic machine politics.
His rhetoric quashes debate. For all his talk about Americans uniting, he's not afraid to attribute opposition to his candidacy to xenophobia -- people who think he has a "funny name" or that he "doesn't look like all those other presidents on those dollar bills."
His supporters run roughshod over legitimate criticisms of Obama. "I want you to argue with them and get in their face," Obama tells his backers. They listen. In August, Obama encouraged his followers to shut down the WGN Chicago radio appearance of National Review reporter Stanley Kurtz. Obama's supporters were issued talking points and told to call into the station in order to plug the lines. They dutifully did so. Obama's minions duplicated the feat with David Freddoso, author of "The Case Against Barack Obama." Spurred to action by a mass e-mail from the Obama campaign -- an e-mail labeling Freddoso a "vicious" slanderer specializing in "hate-mongering" -- the Obama supporters jammed the WGN phone lines, forcing the show to a standstill.
Most importantly, though, his legal team threatens anyone who doesn't support the One with lawsuits and prosecution.
This week, two state prosecutors in Missouri proclaimed that they were joining an Obama "truth squad." Jennifer Joyce and Bob McCulloch, the top prosecutors in St. Louis, city and county, respectively, announced that they would "respond immediately to any misleading advertisements and statements that might violate Missouri ethics law." The Obama camp claimed that Joyce and McCulloch were not threatening prosecution -- but the invocation of Missouri ethics law says otherwise. Use of such law to prosecute political opponents would be blatantly unconstitutional.
This is hardly the first time the Obama campaign has attempted to trample the First Amendment by unleashing the subpoena squad.
In August, the American Issues Project released an ad tying Obama to American terrorist Bill Ayers. Obama's team responded by calling on the Justice Department to begin "an investigation of the American Issues Project; its officers and directors; and its anonymous donors, whoever they may be." The next day, Obama's legal advisors sent another letter to the Justice Department, this time demanding that Harold Simmons, the chief funder of the AIP, be prosecuted for "knowing and willful violation of the individual aggregate contribution limits."
In September, the National Rifle Association aired an ad targeting Obama for his opposition to the Second Amendment. Obama's legal team sent letters to stations airing the ad, stating, "For the sake of both FCC licensing requirements and the public interest, your station should refuse to continue to air this advertisement."
Obama says he opposes the so-called Fairness Doctrine, which would force radio stations to air both liberal and conservative viewpoints, essentially shutting down talk radio, or turning it into NPR. But should the American public believe he won't reverse himself on the Fairness Doctrine to shut down his political critics? Obama has been known to "reconsider" positions in his time: offshore drilling, Israel's undivided capital in Jerusalem, public financing, meeting dictators without preconditions, branding Iran's Revolutionary Guard a terrorist organization, illegal immigration, decriminalization of marijuana, running for president in 2008, NAFTA, clean coal and Jeremiah Wright, to name just a few. IN FACT IT IS DIFFICULT TO NAME A SINGLE POSITION OBAMA HAS NOT PARSED.
Except for one position, that is: Barack Obama fervently believes that Barack Obama must never be attacked for any reason. All criticism is illegitimate. Furthermore, it should be illegal.
Liberals have told us for eight years that President Bush is a Hitlerian tyrant intent on stopping political debate. For eight long, unceasingly acrimonious years, liberals have called Bush a murderer and a traitor. They have that right -- and the fact that Bush has not sought to undermine that right demonstrates his commitment to the First Amendment.
Obama's commitment to the First Amendment, by contrast, extends only to those who agree with him. He'll use any means at his disposal to stop his opponents. If Barack Obama has his way, all criticism of his presidency will end on January 20, 2009. The Messiah must not be
questioned.
