You know....... 'we' - you and I, dear average DU'er are just about
to be 'washed out to sea' on this financial tsunami just as much as our 'friends that we never met yet' were in Galveston and NOLA were with wind and water.

We're NEXT.

Your little money, your savings, your inherence, you little house MEAN NOTHING. It's just been gobbled up with Fannie, Freddie, and AIG! Simple. See?

2. I didn't mean to be a 'smart ass', but I'm not 'wrong' either, am I?
If you think I'm wrong/outta-line, please address that directly.

Peas,

3. They've taken part of our savings but not all of it
And they can't take our souls though they certainly try.

The US will end up a better, fairer place for all its citizens now that the Money Circus Train has pulled out.

7. You're right - it needs to 'stand up' and I *know* it does,
I'm just not a writer like Nance Greggs or some of the others here.

But I know what I *know* (and feel within my heart and soul too)....

Us 'regular people' are NOTHING in 'their' sight. They don't even see the middle class as a bulwark against random crime - against them - anymore.

Maybe their 'safe rooms' won't be as safe as they would like to believe?.....

6. And...no bailouts for US!
They happily spend/lend until it's our future grandchildren's taxpayer dollars they're dipping into, but we never see the kind of return on our taxes that corporations do, that's for sure.

8. One can only hope that the majority of those who have voted against their own best interests in the
past, will finally be awakened to the reality of what the repukes are doing, and toss them out on their asses..er, elephants.
