What paradox said.

Frank Rich was very wise last week, observing the vast wreckage and seemingly intractable problems Obama inherited: pity our President. No Executive should ever have to inherit 25% of what Obama has to solve, yet the urgency to fix at least half of it intensifies by the hour. I hope the administration knows how grateful I am generally for the budget in taking on what is politically feasible at the moment, for Michelle Obama, and for many initial small sane decisions of respect for our people.
Where does Rich end and you begin? The whole observation is nauseating. Michelle Obama? Huh?! Obamachrist is using a recession for his own socialistic ends, calling this another Great Depression to scare the hell out of everybody and then trying to white out what he said with some lame slogan about American sticktoitiveness.
The free market system is going to suffer greatly because of this nonsense. Socialism is quite a price to pay for your hippie notions of social progress. Thanks a trillion.

Posted by onar at February 28, 2009 10:38 AMJames Woolcott posted these 2007 words from Larry Kudlow, aka Peter aka Toby ...
America’s bull market economy stands at the epicenter of the newly-capitalist world market economy. Therefore, it is no surprise that America’s stock rise is being emulated around the world. This is called economic leadership.
The reality is that non-inflationary growth and rising living standards are occurring all around the globe. For this, thank the spread of American-style, free-market capitalism. Some call it cowboy capitalism, but I prefer to think of it as prosperity capitalism.
Record wealth is now being created among a hundred million plus investors in the U.S., including union and public employee pension fund holders who are 60 percent invested in the Bernanke bull market. This, even though they rail against stock market wealth and business in general, and still don’t get it that their retirement wealth bread is being buttered by the fabulous expansion of the portfolio value of the ownership society.
Stocks are the best barometer of future business and economic health. They are signaling that the wealth of the nation currently and prospectively looks excellent.

The recessionists are wrong. The bears are wrong. The pessimists are wrong. The doom and gloom crowd is wrong.
We are witnessing the Bush/Bernanke boom. It is still the greatest story never told.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

And we are glad you clowns are out of power so we can end socialism and get back to capitalism and a great society.

Wassamatta? So many conservatives online that your fave porn site slowed down?
Anybody else want another helping of Hopen'Change?
Posted by Bagley at February 28, 2009 03:48 PMI wish our wingnuts could get their story down---is Obama's policy radical "socialism" ala Turdy or is it non-existent hopenchange ala Barf Bagger?
Our "free market" system---i.e fraudulent financial risk-taking relying on bottomless gub'mint rescue---has already "suffered greatly" because of the conservative deregulation fantasy. Our financial companies have now caused another depression, 80 years after the last (unregulated) one they caused in 1929, and less than a decade after the repeal of the last New Deal finance regs of FDR. Didn't take too long, did it?
The financial "market" is going to be regulated again, and we're going to have a future economy that isn't based on fake financial "firms", their lies and fake "profits".
This means that America's fraudulent finance n' debt-driven "economy" is going to have to come to grips with reality---no one wants what we produce any more, our prosperity was fake and we are a failure as a productive country and as a people.
Now, it didn't have to be this bad---the Toby Turds and Bagley Boobs of BushAmerica supported hands-off economic "conservatism" for a decade, which allowed the Masters of the Universe to lard up the debt and issue the fake securities and even more fake derivatives, all based on fake mortgages and comic interest rates---because that's what Toby's conservative entertainment specialists like Rushbo, Kudlow, Hannity, Will and the rest of the televised cesspool of liars told them to support and cheer on.
We're now going into another depression. Admitted unemployment will go above 10% and real unemployment will go above 19%. Demand will fall far more than it has, corporate profits will be destroyed, bonds will collapse, the Dow will retreat to 5,000 (or lower) never to return for a decade. Most large banks will be "nationalized". Investors will lose a fortune and will never return to our fraudulent capital markets.
As I've said, there be will be an entire section devoted to "Bush Studies" in the bookstores of the future, the final culmination of a "conservative" movement that destroyed the country's prosperity permanently. I highly doubt that Obama can save the situation, but I'm absolutely certain that no idea in the mind of any pinhead calling themselves a "conservative" can do so.
So thanks, "conservatives"---this Depression's for you! Your kids will be cryin' for (actual) socialism, after they have spit in their conservative parents faces and kicked them so hard in the ass that Toby and Bags will be dribblin' shit for the rest of their lives.
