Bush's aren't rich???? That sure is news to me. I understand Bush's Grandpa made a fortune from slave labour in Auschwitz.

clamormagazine.org

But while President Bush publicly embraced the community of holocaust survivors in Washington last spring, he and his family have been keeping a secret from them for over 50 years about Prescott Bush, the president's grandfather. According to classified documents from Dutch intelligence and US government archives, President George W. Bush's grandfather, Prescott Bush made considerable profits off Auschwitz slave labor. In fact, President Bush himself is an heir to these profits from the holocaust which were placed in a blind trust in 1980 by his father, former president George Herbert Walker Bush.

That money should be returned to the holocaust survivors

The market drop today shows the global anxiety about the US dollar, Bush-Cheney's reckless and corrupt supply side shenanigans and our poor balance of payments.

While the feeble dollar may help a few exporters as well as our tourist industry it is a hugely damaging and risky situation. I believe there is already a semi-run on the dollar in play, and that we have begun the big Bush recession which will probably last longer than Reagan's did, that is for 4-5 years. That would include a bear market and a poor or stagnant real estate market. The only way we can win back the trust of the world economically is to start paying our bills and balancing budgets. That will mean raising taxes on the rich and big corporations. Democrats will resist any tax hikes on the middleclass however as they are the ones hit the hardest by Bush's policies, and most unfairly.

BTW, the sharp and sudden drop today was attributed to poor retail news, so wherever you get your economic news, don't believe those guys again.

GOP economics are for the rich by the rich, and the white collar criminals. That is a fact. They don't do 95% of this country any good at all. In fact they hurt them.

It is not wrong to be rich. it is wrong to be a greedy, selfish conniving and dishonest rich person or major corporate power that doesn't care about anyone else.

BTW, Anne Coulter dated the Guccione kid. I didn't go to school with him I only met him twice at cocktail parties in the late 80's. Both times he let on that he was really into bi-sexual kinkiness, etc., and was enjoying the porn models. That's Anne Coulter's last known boyfriend, about 15 years ago, into bisexual orgies. Ms. Christian Right Coulter who never goes to church and dates porn kings (or no men at all). Since then she apparently doesn't date men, like Condi Rice, Laura Ingraham etc.

I did go to school with Kennedys and top GOP scions as well. One of my best friends is a top advisor to Mitt Romney now. He drank the Bush koolaid and now deeply regrets it.
