What If Yesterdays Friggin Bailout/Robbery Is A Trap...



.......What if the bailout was a trap setup by this administration of crooks and murders to derail the Presidency of Barak Obama....What if it could very well be a sign that the PUKES know already they are not going to beat Obama and the race is not as close as the polls indicate.


Could these fu^kers be simply buying time to try and regroup and then come back with a better candidate in 2012....or do they really have so much disdain for yours and mine pocketbooks and futures that they would pull this kind of stunt just because that is who they really are...

2. I'm ready to dump the tea into the harbor.
This is unacceptable. What has been proposed is nothing less than enslavement for all Americans, and their children, grandchildren, etc., etc. Are we going to allow America to 'officially' become a fascist dictatorship? If Obama becomes President, they've tied his hands now. And we've seen there is no justice anymore. Republicans aren't willing to follow the Rule Of Law, and they've just looted the public treasury for generations to come. We won't be getting any bridges, or infrastructure. Fuck our kids. The education system will continue to crumble. I can't even go on anymore. I'm so devastated by this. I don't give a fuck who wins the election anymore. It has ceased to matter.

4. I love tea.
Um, I can't say what I'm really thinking right now, because I'll get hauled off.

I do care about the election, but let's hope Obama doesn't go along with all of this. I trust he won't.

6. Not only is it a Shock Doctrine power play, it's also a Rovian bitchslap.

We cannot allow the bailout to fly through Congress unchallenged.

If we do, we'll be bitchslapped. The right-wing media will portray it as Reid and Pelosi bending over and taking abuse from the Republicans and not having the gonads to hit back.

It'll be like FISA all over again - we'll be demoralized, the Rethugs will be energized by their sadism.

Watch all those hard-fought numbers in the polls plummet. Watch Obama sink ten points overnight in the Gallup, because the LIV redneck moron voters think Democrats are "pussies."

We cannot allow another bitchslap play to go through. Not this close to the election. It'll put us right in the position to have the election stolen, or we might even genuinely lose.

8. Amen to that.
I'm demoralized, but I'm forcing myself to get the fuck over it, because this election DOES matter. It's the most important election in my lifetime. And I think Obama can get us out of the trap they are setting for him and the American people.

11. Could be.
No doubt that this "bailout" will hinder the next president in getting the national debt down, and balancing the budget. For a long time I have thought that the republicans don't want to win this year. They know things are a mess now, and they know that if they can pin the mess on the democrats, then they can come back in 2012 using the old line "the democrats did this and we will fix it"! McCain was simply the one person who they could use for this, and not worry about hurting his political future. They can keep their "golden" boys from looking bad, and use them in 2012.

I also think it plays into the "new world order" plan that daddy Bush has been pushing for years. Get control of energy, pharmaceuticals, banking and food production, and then you control the world!
