WOLF STEW--ALA BUSH

The story of the three little pigs fits the government's bailout program quite well.

It looks like the banks (the big bad wolf) are in the kettle. Alas, "not by the hair of my chinny, chin chin." Will we learn the lesson of the three little pigs?? Which is: To get alone in the world is to do things as well as we can. That's if the lobbyist are sent to --you know where.

Fortunately, the third little pig learned his mother's lesson and lived happi;y ever after. Will we??

The profligate spending, massive barrowing (for Bush/Cheney's war), tax cuts for the rich and big business since Bush and his gang took office (2001) have caused the country's economic problems to grow to enormous proportions. We've been put in a deep, deep hole and it will take years for the citizens of this great country to see the light of day again.

The Bush/Cheney legacy will grow hair before there will be prosperity. Yes, they will sleep well at night along with their banker friends who have fleeced the citizens of this country.

Oh, have no fear, we the people,-- will rise from the deep dark abyss this administration has dug for us, but it will be painful. Our resilience is beyond compare. But, this time we've got the whole world on our shoulders (thanks to numbnuts).

Eight years ago this country had a surplus of money, the budget was balanced. But the Republican's (not all) greed reared its ugly head and whoosh---it was all gone.

Deregulation helped Wall Street to get their dirty grimy hands on our future propersity and stick it in their pockets.

We now owe China almost a $trillion. Maybe we should be learning Chinese and not Spanish???

And, for those out there who think that Congress is control by the Democrats, it's not really. Their are 49 Reb's and 49 Dems with two independents and I belive they are Joe Lieberman and Bernie Sanders. So, button your lip about whose in control. They all should be replaced.

None of them, oh, maybe a few, have the citizens of this country at their heart. They'll lie, cheat and steal your vote. Think--think and use good judgement in voting. Don't vote for a person because he or she looks good. Listen to their words and figure out if they are telling lies or the truth.

This crisis we're in can't be solved in a day, week or a year. It will take careful planning and a review of the past to figure out just what, in the hell, to do to bring this country back to its greatness and individual (middle class) wealth. Your sweat made this country great and now it's going to take an ocean full of sweat to return it to the good times of the 1950's.

Mr. & Mrs. worker, please remember common stock in a company will not buy you retirement and happiness. But, it will line the pockets of the CEO's. Do you get the point??? You get paper and they get your CASH!!

Now, go softly into the night. mgf
