If, as you say, the GOP voted for every SS bill since the 1940's it would follow that about half of the Democrat's platform of scare mongering the elderly is nothing more than bullfeathers....if the GOP supports SSN then what the hell do the liberals have left?.....

Talking about shredded documents and Presidents saying "trust me" was pretty rich after enjoying all the character exhibited by the previous administration....but that horse has been whipped to a pulp.

We did have a bubble market and that point is beyond argument....even the slowest of market observers seem to have caught on to the concept....the exuberance fueled by visions of the business cycle being repealed could only lead to sobering results....on the bright side of that cycle, we are a lot closer to being in a market where the strategy of "buying and holding" of equities finally starts to make some sense....but what do I know....maybe it is financially "slick" to dump stocks at their lows and roll into fixed income at their highs....

As for your thoughts on the "party of death".....that concept was aborted as soon as it's little skull dared to show....the rest of your theories on the misuse of governmental funds seemed like a cry for tax cuts to me...

Somebody smarter than the average guest on CNBC said something to the effect that "only the deluded think it is only about the economy these days"....whether you like it or not we are at war...
