Wanna help save the economy and the Arctic at the same time?

Let's be real folks, the Bush administration put us right into the economic hell we're going into. Financial experts the world over, and the media that reports on their finding, all believe we haven't even seen the bad part yet. Thank you Mr. Bush.

If McCain wins this election it will surely get worse. He is a full supporter of all Bush's major policies. He is a puppet for corporations. Should he die of old age in office we'll be left with Palin, who is governor of a state that has a smaller population than the major cities of this country. Niles, IL has roughly 40% of the total population that Alaska has. Is she ready to lead such a vast number of people?

Not for nothing, a Juris Doctor Magna Cum Laude Harvard educated man is probably a better choice for the presidency than a man who finished 6th from last at the US Naval Academy, and a Juris Doctor from the Syracuse Univiversity College of Law is more qualified to be the Veep than someone who takes over 5 years to get a bachelors in journalism.

Are you independently wealthy? Do you not worry about the costs of things? Would you fill up the car at $4.75 a gallon if it's $3.95 across the street? Can you rack up $10,000 a month on credit cards and just pay it off when the statement arrives? Then vote for McCain. You have no need to worry or give a damn about the economy.

At one point in American history it would have been a proud thing to say that you are a Republican. Now that the "Republicans" <--(please note the quotes) have created the largest, most intrusive, limiting, spendthrift government this nation has ever seen. The Great Presidents of our past are rolling over in their graves. The whole world is worried about what our mess is going to do to their economies. They should be worried as it will definitely have an effect. It also creates a climate where our industrial leadership may pass the torch to another nation stronger and more fit to carry it like... China. Thanks Mr. Bush. Thanks Wal-Mart. Thank you, the consumer. It's all of us. We can be saved, and it doesn't (and shouldn't) involve Jerry Falwell. Vote for Obama. Not because he'll be the best president ever. We all know he won't. It's just that on a bad day, he'll be better than McCain ever was on any of his best days. 6th from last, or Juris Doctor Magna Cum Laude? BTW with a specialization in INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS. McCain will send bombs. Obama will make friends. Here's what the world thinks of our economic situation: http://www.ctv.ca/servlet/ArticleNews/story/CTVNews/20080921/flaherty_bailout_080921/20080921?hub=TopStories http://www.spiegel.de/international/business/0,1518,578944,00.html http://www.telegraph.co.uk/money/main.jhtml?xml=/money/2008/09/16/ccjeff116.xml http://www.theaustralian.news.com.au/story/0,25197,24380988-20501,00.html Here's what the oil companies want to do now, now that we've melted away half the ice in the Arctic. BTW, anyone that thinks it won't raise the sea level should try this: fill a glass with ice until it is over the top of the glass. Now fill with water. Add more ice as necessary to insure that the ice is still over the top of the glass. Be sure to fill up with water until it is even with the rim, all the while maintaining the ice level above the top. Now let it melt and watch what happens. Why do I say to do it this way? Well, if you've ever seen PBS, Discovery, Animal Planet, National Geographic, you know that the ice sheet towers over the surface of the ocean. People seem to focus on the Greenland Ice Sheet at the last stand of our now precariously balanced ecology, but this isn't so. Living in the Midwest I won't have to worry about rising sea levels ruining my home. I do know that I won't be left unaffected. It'll be fucked up. A toast to Big Oil, Coal and Natural Gas! Thanks for the memories. Thanks for the lies. Thanks for making nuclear war seem like no big thing. http://www.spiegel.de/international/world/0,1518,579265,00.html
