This latest stock market crash,

is the worst since 2008 (note the year), though not nearly that bad, and now that S&P downgraded the US credit rating, from AAA to AA, the Repub candidates are jumping on the news and blaming Obama. OH REALLY??? The economy has  obviously never recovered from 2008, when the market, and the rest of our economy totally tanked after 8 years of Bush, and now the Repubs wanna blame it all on Obama. Nice try. His entire presidency has been like taking the helm of the Titanic, after it had already hit the iceberg, while the Repubs are punching holes in the lifeboats. The most amazing thing? That there are actually sheep out there who can't/won't see what's going on and blindly blame the 'replacement crew' that took over after the iceberg sliced the hull. Unbelievable, but in their Bizarro world, there should be some kind of magic wand that can fix a sinking ocean liner or a crashing economy. And if it can't be magically fixed? Let's put the original crew, who caused the crash, back in charge. Unbelievable...

NO! Let's blame the damn company who BUILT the friggin ship! It would have been sea worthy and capable of withstanding icebergs had the company not cut corners and used inferior material. Also more lives would have been saved had more lifeboats been on board and the crew been capable of doing their job. However, the music was delightful til the end!

Don't think I did...I'm blaming the friggin' Citizens from the get-go for allowing the United States Government to get this much power and authority. It should have been stopped long ago. Each party blames the other for the mess we've gotten ourselves into. Well, it's everybodies mess, just like the Titanic. From the builders, welders, pipefitters, those who initally designed the ship. It was a disaster waiting to happen as we well know. As is our United States government, yesterday, today, and tomorrow. It's too damn big, too damn weak in the areas where it needs to be strong, too few of this and too many of that, but the music is good.

You think the Repub brand is tarnished now?

Great 'bargains' at the local Sprouts store
