Bailout or Rescue???

Now that the bill has become a law, has your anger faded? Maybe it was never there if you think it is ok for the same entity that lackedd oversight, and took part in this mess is the same one we choose each time to bail us out. Is this not the insanity that Einstein spoke of at an earlier time? Why do we distrust our institutions and individual ingenuity so much?

Maybe this vote was right for the moment, but what about the long-term; what about the future of our free enterprise system? Have we safeguarded our individual liberty, or have we altered the state of our economic system? Our problem is that we all think we need something new, but we are not willing to suffer through hard change to do it. We weren't willing to say "No" to our president and our Congress and face the prospect that change could come about with the result of market correction, not government direction. We are afraid of returning to our principles, which is why we seek the cocoon and comfort zone of letting government ride to a faux rescue using our real money.

We need change, but not the kind offered by Obama that wreaks of socialism, or McCain's which has only the policy du jour that will make him popular for the moment.
The change will only come from us in an ideological revolution. I know that this is totally idealistic which is why it doesn't work because we have lost our idealism, except in shallow speeches only geared to being elected. We are lost in our innocence of daily life, manipulated by those who have the power; that's government.

Forgive my negativity, but it is what I see, and the outcome is not one that is postive, at least from these eyes. Your thoughts....

Is America ready to elect someone from Main Street?

Realizing that the VP debate is a sideshow to electing the presidential candidates, I was struck by a thought ; Is America ready to put someone from Main Street close to the presidency? It seems to me that it was not so much a debate last night as a statement of principles. Fairness for Biden and Individual liberty for Palen. More importantly, Palen was the object of perception it seemed to me, while Biden was much more concise as the Washington insider. Main Street language like "Doggone it," "Darn Right," and "God Bless him" were there to connect depending on who said it. So what did the debate do for you, if anything.

VP Debate Drinking Game

MIT's paper The Tech presents: The VP debate drinking game! A sample of some rules:

When Biden begins the “I take the train home everyday story” being drinking. Don’t stop ’till he finishes.

When Palin insists that governing a small town in Alaska is in fact experience: Give your friend a shot glass of beer when he/she asks for a pint and insist it’s the same thing.

Have fun and remember you have to work tomorrow!

Just a little bit of history and timeline on the financial mess

Just thought I would post some points since the "Elite media" seems to want to forget whose negligence, and involvement helped get us into this mess.
