Maybe I'll be proven wrong, but I think that post will get ZERO recs because people here are not ignorant cows. The last seven+ years of a newly emerged thugocracy simply went into warp drive and turned the dot com mess from the Democrats (mainly) into perhaps the worst mess ever in the US. Even worse, the bust we are experiencing now is with a backdrop of perpetual war, exploding deficits, collapsing industries, eroding infrastructure, and accelerating inflation, so the ability of our federal gov't to do anything has been... ZERO. They've simply been exchanging years of taxes at a time (of our children) to paper over the horrendous blunders and catastrophe's they've created. Blame... I'd say 15-85. Maybe 10-90. Implying the dot com bust of the democrats has been avoided so long with psychotic schemes that were destined to fail that the bust we are experiencing is 6x to 10x worse. And yes, Pelosi is an ignorant cow for saying that. If she lived close to Wall Street, she'd have known better (in the same way that Palin knows all about foreign policy because she lives close to Russia). Just my opinion <g>
