Reply #64: It makes me laugh.

I mean . . . did people SERIOUSLY think the disastrous result that 28 years of Friedman/Reagan-omics wrought would be cured in a year? REALLY?

Have people really not at all been paying attention as to who was predominantly running this country for 28 years, hand-in-hand?

We're extremely lucky we didn't get Great Depression Part II: Bigger, Longer and Uncut. With McCain and Palin, we'd be swimming knee-DEEP in that right about now.

People are pissed at a private sector/corporate America/vampire financial sector problem, but want to blame Barack Obama (and conveniently ignore what Bewsh did to help the vampire class).

It is to laugh.
