Its an indication of the direction the wind is blowing, if nothing else.

I bet its because that bum Obama pulled a bait and switch. Right after accepting, it was suddenly decided that the Department of the Census would no longer fall under Commerce.

Shrewd move by the Dems. Put that scarce Republican seat into play in 2010. Its not at all certain that Gregg would have won, but incumbents do enjoy a huge advantage. So they pluck him out, and then diminish the job.

My theory is that they do that to their political opponents. Like Hillary, in her diminishing role. She is invisible.

Reason: I finally figured out that Obama is a Marxist and it would go against every thing I say I believe in to support his destruction of American capitalism”..

P.S. I was being set up as a scapegoat too.... No doubt typical whitey...

Since I’ve lost a ton in the Obama Dow Debacle, that might be the only stocks that will see their share price increase in the next few years.

Finally, a Washington politician with some integrity. I have respect for him in that he allowed his principles to guide him and did not become part of the Obama sleaze. Let the other honest men show integrity too. Leave Obama with his collection of tax cheats, sleazy lobbyists and those who sell pardons to drug dealers and terrorists.
