I said I wouldn't but I just can't resist this. If you have watched the news this morning you will know that two giants of Wall Street have crashed and crumbled into bankruptcy. Employees were seen walking out of the offices on Wall Street with boxes of belongings from their desks; their jobs gone and now unemployed. Lehman Brothers and Merril Lynch have fallen. Bank of America who already bought out the troubled Countrywide Mortgage Company has now absorbed Merril Lynch. Financiers are saying it is not over yet. There are real concerns about the huge insurance company AIG surviving.
None of us were alive in 1929 when the great depression began with the crash of Wall Street. This was after an 8 year rule of the Republican Party and the election of a new Republican president, Hoover. Well here we are folks. Eight years into a Republican presidency an election coming up and financial disaster looming. Good God, and McCain says on TV that he will never let this type of financial disaster happen, that he will clean up Wall Street. For God's sake man, it was you and your cronies that got us in this financial mess to begin with!
That's all I want to say. Vote whatever way you want, but think this through folks. Your children's future may depend upon it while politicians argue about foreign affairs, pigs with lipstick and whether Sarah Palin has been insulted.
