STOCKS CONTINUE TO PLUNGE

This broker reacts at the stock market

in Frankfort, central Germany.

European markets are tumbling for the 8th straight day amid ongoing fears about the state of the credit market. This Depression we're in at home is spreading like wildfires across the globe. It seems citizens worldwide are panicking as their savings and retirement plans disintegrate in the midst of this economic tidal wave.

I talked to a guy today who said that if he would have stuffed his money into the mattress the last 20 years he'd have about $60,000 saved up. As it is, he only has a few thousand left in his 401 K plan and is going to have to put off retirement. 

Cindy McCain: Vietnam vets with PTSD were 18-years olds who didn't know what they were doing!

During a recent interview with Marie Claire, Sen. John McCain’s (R-AZ) wife Cindy suggested that her husband has never had PTSD symptoms because “he was trained.” She also added that symptoms such as “cold sweats in the middle of the night” are reserved for the “the 18-year-olds who were drafted”:

Just how stupid is this woman?

Q: You met your husband after his POW days. To what extent is that still with you - or is it a part of history?

McCAIN: My husband will be the first one to tell you that that’s in the past. Certainly it’s a part of who he is, but he doesn’t dwell on it. It’s not part of a daily experience that we experience or anything like that. But it has shaped him. It has made him the leader that he is.

Q: But no cold sweats in the middle of the night?

McCAIN: Oh, no, no, no, no, no. My husband, he’d be the first one to tell you that he was trained to do what he was doing. The guys who had the trouble were the 18-year-olds who were drafted. He was trained, he went to the Naval Academy, he was a trained United States naval officer, and so he knew what he was doing.

I HOPE THAT THE THOUSANDS OF YOUNG IRAQ AND AFGANISTAN VETERANS HEARD THIS CRAP!

IN SHRINK CIRCLES IT'S CALLED DENIAL!

WILL TOMORROW BRING AN OCTOBER SURPRISE FOR PALIN?

It could get scary tomorrow for

Gov. Sarah Palin...........when..

the results are released on the infamous 'Trooper Gate' investigation! There may be ghastly howls of horror emanating from the musty halls of the Republican war room when the would-be Veep gets slapped for abuse of power! Then again, they may not have enough of a case against her, and she'll be grinning and winking her way until election day.

THE ZERO DOLLAR - SOON TO BE TRUE?

Artist Laura Gilbert's print "The Zero Dollar"

protesting the breakdown of the American

economy.

 

She passed out 10,000 of these greenbacks in front of the New York Stock Exchange on Tuesday, Oct 7, to call attention to the economic crisis gripping the nation.

The Republican Place to Put out Lies

Step right up folks! Get your official

 FOX/Republican patch right now and join the legion that don't bother with issues, and who think personal attacks are good campaigning. You can even get this image tattooed on body parts like your butt, so when you sit down and take a crap you'll be in tune with the Neo-Cons!

Horny couple park car and have sex in police parking lot!

A young couple coming back from a Lehigh University function decided love couldn't wait and they pulled into the local Hellertown Police station parking lot to attend to their desires.

The problem was that they were parked in a handicapped space and someone reported a suspicious vehicle. When the police came to the car the couple were interrupted, and the male driver ended up getting charged with drunk driving. They weren't charged for having their fun though.

Still, it sure was bad luck brought on by hormones, to get a drunk driving charge while he was parked!

Michael Moore says AS IT STANDS column on PTSD IS A MUST READ!

Look what I found on Michael Moore's web site - click here. I just happened to Google John McCain and PTSD and, lo and behold, I find it's a MUST READ on Michael Moore's web site.

I guess I'm honored, but don't people ask to reprint your stuff anymore? Like out of courtesy? Maybe I'm just old-fashioned. Well, not that old at heart, or I wouldn't be messing with this blog! I'm constantly amazed at how things (like my column for example) move through the Internet like bolts of lightning and appear in unlikely places.
