POLITICAL BLOG POSTERS

 With all the political bloggers now posting

 sensational posts about the character

 of the candidate they want to lose,

 (seems backwards, doesn't it)

 the field is so full of slanderous disinformation that no one can decipher what is true and what is false!

 So you have accomplished you mission:

 No one wants to vote for either candidate!

 You guys are GENIUSES!

No wonder the country is in such trouble.

 With the "phony bailout" effectively bailing out their big contributors and not you and me at all, if they pay one dime of commissions, retirement, which you and I just lost,  or pensions which we don't even get, is it any wonder that "we the actual people" should be disappointed to the point of taking action?

 We need to have all the senators and congressmen that shanked us all and voted for this PHONY bailout removed.

 If a company wrecks it's boat, it goes out of business, all the "bailed out" are also out of business. What EXACTLY was the big emergency? Was it that without these giant wealth thieves in the way that the average Joe could actually have a chance?

 Leave it to politicians to figure out how to "rip us off in an emergency" and spoonfed the rip-off to us in a way in which we have no way to stop them once again.

 Are they begging for a violent revolution?

I wouldn't.

 I think people are PO'd.

I wonder now if those were Saudis in those planes on 911 and not average Joes that got overwrought and fed up.

 This IS the kind of tyranny only a king would provide.

Who is the king?

Last Chance , Willy!

 OK Mr. Mayor of "Haterville", this is your last chance. Back up your claims of the "progress train" we are all supposed to get on with you with some NUMBERS.

 That's right, you have generated some statistics while you were in office and as far as progress goes, let's see what they are!

 OK in all fairness, (something you haven't merited a of yet, but, we'll give you one last chance) let's see what you have on the burners right now as  far as "progress" goes.

 Nobody with a working brain gets on the "progress train" until they know where it's going and we CAN ALL GET ON BOARD!

 We are willing, but you have some proving to do. We don't even hear hot air, grandiose schemes, chronyism, dirty deals gone wrong,  anymore.

 You have to be able to prove

every word you say

or

you might as well fade out.

Let' rename Memphis Targetville!

Let's rename Memphis "Targetville"

 Not only is it a more accurate name in a descriptive sense, but, for all the Target Stores we have here we should "give them some props" !

 I hope they live through this economic downturn. The bill that pasd ha guaranteed that there will be more hits coming soon.

 At least it's not as bad as the worst one,,,yet, an 86% drop. Looks like back in the day, we used to have a market crash every three years. Don't complain about interest rates, 4% is the historicaly correct interest rate for America for over 150 years.

Who's to blame? 

Who wasn't paying attention?

 Senators to blame, Right Here!

Most majority Members are democrats, sorry about that, but, that's who has done this to you.
