Thanks, I hadn’t thought of clothing. Especially shoes and work boots.

I am thinking we could be in really deep

and

they put a Marxist in charge.

You’re suprised that our marxist politicians put a marxist in charge?

McCain “Obama is a real nice guy and if I didn’t think I would make a better President......”

The Republican national committee had to know McCain would lose.
More to the point, they wanted McCain to lose.

Letting the feds monitoring this forum know: Priceless

Let me re-adjust my tin-foil hat and modulate my IP address... there...

If all of the people in a crowded restaurant decided to get up and walk away without paying, only a couple of people would get caught. Luckily, the Rule of Law keeps this from happening.

But when the leaders ignore the Rule of Law, thinking they're above it in king-like manner, it flies in the face of the trust people place in their elected leaders. It defies documents such as The Ten Commandments, the Magna Carta, the US Constitution and so on. It makes people want to take action, to protect their life, liberty, and property.

It does not require a majority to prevail, but rather an irate, tireless minority keen to set brush fires in people's minds. -- Samuel Adams

Sounds like they knew the collapse was coming, but were trying to keep it under wraps as long as possible - hopefully until after the election.

Look at the video of Paulson's press conference today. If you can read body language, you can see that there's stuff he didn't want to fully disclose - like for example, what "facts" changed Mr. Secretary? Now you can only ask why he didn't want to fully disclose those facts.

Yeah, see these charts here to see if you're feeling better about the "bail out" and where we're headed (BTW, these are "old" numbers from September):

Monetary base is the volume of "money" in the system.

Non-borrowed reserves is a measure of the amount of money banks are required to keep "on reserve" with the Fed.

Monetary base:

Non-borrowed reserves:

This is money going to banks, basically. A crapload of T-bills have been issued, then you've got the bailout bucks...and it's all sitting on the books of the big banks. You can see that here:

Where is that coming from? Well....

A portion of the monetary base is currency in circulation, but if you'll take a careful look at the following chart, you'll see the size of that "portion":

Does anyone feel sick yet?

FURTHERMORE, WHERE DO YOU STOP AMASSING GOVT DEBT, AND HALT GOVT OWNERSHIP OF INDUSTRY (I.E., SOCIALISM)?

need gas with that generator ;) (I think we have enough for a couple weeks). I keep thinking we need to make jerky out of the 4 deer our sons shot a couple weeks ago, but it’s hard to do a lot at a time in the humidity of Houston!

we hooked up to county water 2 yrs ago...the well is still there.....county prohibits or strictly controls whether you can keep your well connected to "their" water....you have to have inspections yearly, etc...

can I get a manual pump for it?...set up a pump house around it and use it for watering the garden or lawn or in emergencies?

no one wishes that he fail....quite the contrary....we hope we are all wrong...

but he has done not one thing nor said one thing that can allay our fears....he has surrounded himself with similar tyrants and crooks....

what do you expect of us?......

do not go gently into that good night.....rage one....pray...but rage on as well..
