Economic crisis venting required

The spin machine for the GOP is going like a hurricane. Blaming it on a do-nothing congress?!? Well, they didn't do much but one thing is that the one(s) to blame for the current economic misery is Phil Gramm. I'm sure you can't blame the whole thing on him but the deregulation of the mortage industry led to their downfall. They can't regulate themselves. This is the 2nd time that greed ran away with stability. McCain is back peddling his parroting of Bush's "The economy is strong." bull shit. I don't know who is more pathetic, the GOP puppets for thinking we are buying this shit anymore or those of us who keep repeating the same GOP drivel. These pep talks are laughable and those who believe them are worse because they'll vote the same dick head in. 'The economy is strong' backpeddling now has McCain saying that he obviously means the workers. That's the beauty of being a politician, if you spout the right sort of crap you can reshape in down the line. Bush's writers were explimperary at it. Bush just flubbed them but enough people bought that crap. It's what worries me about Obama. His speeches are more elequent by a hundred fold but still are missing the details.

McCain used to be a worthwhile politician (oxymoron I know) years ago but it's all gone now. He had plenty of people on both sides respect him. He is now the GOP's bitch/puppet. Palin. Joke. Not qualified in expereince nor does she have the ideas or education to pull that off. Which is the difference in her and Obama. That is the comparison that the GOP wanted. Their expereinces. However, it's not just the experience, it's the knowledge, education and the vision. None of which she has.

While I know Obama doesn't have all the answers nor do I trust that he won't change his stance once in, I really believe that he won't screw up this country worse that the last 8 years have. Of course those GOP blinders have gone over those Red states. They are counting on the those stereotypical racists down lower to put them over the top I guess.

Drill baby drill!?! WTF is that supposed to do for anyone now or in the next few years. The fact that people believe and repeat that is abhorent to me. 5 to 10 baby and we get pennies? I don't consider destroying more wildlife worth those pennies. Get infrastructure transportation off of gas/diesel and on something else so our economy isn't tied to APEC, push tellecommuting, discount hybrids, more $ in to R&D for better energy resources.

I won't even think about the negative, distortions and lying ads coming out of the GOP side. Why is everyone acting surprised at them? Finally some of the major news sources are calling them as they see them. I'm trying to avoid those overly left leaning sources like dailykos and huffington which try to blow things out of proportion. Unless it's a youtube or similar quote where it's there in plain site. When they start interpreting things is where they get out of control. I still can't bring myself to listen/watch fox news. WSJ is suspect now too. Thanks Rupert, you conservative twat.
