Let me get this straight. You haven't read ANY of their tax proposals (though in Bush's case it's not a proposal, it's how we're taxed) and you're running around commenting on the economic situation of America and pointing the finger at Obama?

uh you almost read back far enough to respond to that properly... i said that both obama and palin were terrible, hence the "also" in bold. I already voted and voted for Ron Paul. I do not support Palin.

Well, i'd rather just stay here and chat, and since i don't usually bookmark everything i read, because i read a lot? i'll let you go out, use YOUR very own brain, and find out what other countries are feeling about our economy, and how they're reacting to it.

To me, it's a self-evident fact, but if you need some proof, be my guest.

WendyCal, this started as comical, but as someone else already said, now you're just getting annoying. You were asked for sources to back up your claims that the financial crisis was caused by other countries being worried about Obama being elected. Your reply was to throw the wall street journal in our post and ask ethan if he'd ever heard of the stock market. That's not citing sources. That's not even really doing anything.

The rest of the world is going into an economic recession because the stock market is built on speculation. When the US economy started to crash, foreign stocks that were tied to the US economy also depreciated, which in turn caused further depreciation.

It has absolutely nothing to do with other countries "fearing" Obama being elected. In fact, most people in Canada that I know, and everyone in the UK, Asia, Australia and New Zealand that I've spoken with are hoping Obama gets elected. I can't say that the majority of people in other nations want this, I can only answer for the people in other countries that I know personally, which is a lot.

Your posts are just getting more confusing and more all over the place. No one here has any idea what you're talking about anymore. You have yet to post a single fact in this entire thread. Everything has been wild claims and out-there conjectures.

Edit: my mistake. you claimed the economy is crashing. that is indeed a fact. everything else you have posted thus far has been utter bullsh*t.

My bad. It's getting tough in this thread to sort through the sh*te to get to the posts with actual reason behind them. I take back my comments about you.

No we're hating on people who run around trying to convince people of their lies about our candidate.

I'll let you in on a secret. I retracted my post to dac because he actually is posting arguments for which there is a reasonable amount of evidence to support. I respect his arguments entirely, because he seems intelligent enough to form a rational opinion.

You on the other hand, should really just stop posting in any thread related to politics or the economy. And here: you should put one of these on, you seem like you need it:

First, unless i'm drunker than i think, i never said it was all Obama's faullt ~ what i actually SAID

You know what, jibber?

Could you please just read my posts, as though that was a good friend posting? You know, not looking for fault, but actually trying to understand the overall concept?
