Not much to say about the sisters that we haven’t said already, so instead we’ll focus on current financial meltdown & where everyone stands…
QUESTION: So, are McCain & Palin to the point where they need to release a celebrity politican sex tape in order recover their floundering campaign or is this merely something that’ll blow over in a few days?

You were right, 3 years later she's still skinny :)

These two bitches couldn't be more annoying if they tried.
First of all, John McCain does vote with the right over 90 percent of the time as does Obama vote with the left 96% of the time. That's just politics. You vote with your party, regardless of who's in charge.
It's kind of silly to manipulate that on both sides knowing that.
They're both kinda blah. The one on the right kind of looks like Hef's gf.
agreed! aly is fucking hot
Bush is a terrible president, but he's not the worst ever. McCain hasn't voted 90% of the time with Bush. You should check their records before you buy into Obama's political spin.
Why are you so angry?
Since the average life expectancy of the US is 77.8 years and the life expectancy of Canadians is 80.4, it means Canada is better than the US. That's the best you can do?
Americans work longer and harder than Canadians, because we don't sponge off of our government like you do.
seriously disney bring back Phil of the Future!!! Keely FTW
Disney sluts put out to pasture?
They're boring but pretty talented. Aly's alright, but AJ looks like a mini-Brooke Hogan and that's not cool.
I'd totally bone the older one.
I kind of agree with you. The Democrats and Republicans have not changed whatsoever. It's always kind of a lesser of two evils scenario. In this case, the lesser evil is Obama. It's kind of funny how John McCain, the most popular Republican with Democrats ever has become so hated by the same people who elevated him for years.
The founding fathers were against political parties for a reason. . . . If only they could've been against slavery. . hmm:(
To be fair, McCain's a Republican. Most Republicans vote together as do Democrats. So, McCain probably voted with Ronald Reagan and Bush I 90% or most of the time too, and against Bill Clinton most of the time. And possibly Obama. . . If we're lucky
Jewish...Jewish!?!?
Aw Hell no.....
Neither of these girls believe in dying their roots. Aly is still way hotter than her troll sister.
All Biden needs to do to win the debate is keep his answers short so Palin gets more time to self destruct. Or course, keeping his answers short will be as much of a challenge for Biden as sounding intelligent will be for Palin.
OIL
Listen Richard I understand your point although you may not have expressed it as I would and although I may not agree with you I am impressed by your convictions. Energy costs and food staples have increased substantially but I don't see the connection with the current administration.
Give yourself a pat on the back for impressing us with your econ 101 lecture that is part of every undergraduate curriculum – trust me - I am familiar with the BLS stats. Obviously you did not read Richard's comment - he indicated that things have tripled since 2000. I am sure using any method you would like the CPI has not changed by 300% during the Bush Presidency.
What is the obvious answer to the undisputed worst presidency in history? Why, a man who agreed with him 90% of the time, that's what! Of course! MAN, some of you guys are stupid...
No, but your policies result in you guys dying 5 years earlier than the other developed nations, on average. So keep your crappy policies - some of you are too stupid to know any better.
McCain kills me. What a cynical choice for vice-president. All we need is a woman and some legs, that should get their vote. No experience or actual brain power or even the ability to contribute meaningful speech necessary. And what REALLY kills me is that some of you are stupid enough to fall for it. For that reason, you deserve whatever you get. Even if that means a 5-year shorter, on average, lifespan. Cheers!
I realized that after my response. So trained to throw off trolls and being attacked that I was just chaulking up everything as an attack.
Sorry
I'm guessing you didn't understand what I wrote, I was agreeing with you that the gov't has made a conscious, coordinated, bipartisan effort to understate inflation and unemployment. It is why things are worse than the gov't is reporting.
eggs $2.50 per dozen
Note: Gas has more than tripled
Also note, all these people losing their homes. That you can't argue away. People aren't just not paying. This economy is making so bad they can't afford to live in the same house they could live in 4 years ago.
This in regard to Player:
Not sure if anyone here goes grocery shopping or fills up their gas tanks, but here are comparison prices from 2000 and now....
This is in the Northeast....Some essential of everyday living for the average no vegan.
2000 2008
Ground meat $1 per pound $3 per pound
eggs $89 cents a dozen $250 per dozen
Gas $99 per gallon $3.60 per gallon
Electric bill $123 per month $300 per month
Bread $1.29 $2.59
These are just basic examples of basic staples of living.
They do have a free mind....I warned them all because you are a self professed troll.
"Everyone here has a free mind and can do as these please"
You told everybody to ignore me, because I disagreed with you, so why should we listen to your nonsense?
You make Pam look sane!
Everyone here has a free mind and can do as these please.
It's easy to attack the only person putting their ideas out there. Especially when you hide in anonymity.
People attack my ideas. Well how about attack back with your own ideas instead of saying mine are wrong.
Your attacks are personal and have nothing to do with my ideas.
Well that's great, but they did nothing to stop it. No one did.
If I read right, we are in agreement that the $700 billion dollar package is the wrong think to do.
...and you speak for all women?
We Americans deserve to die, because we don't want your input in our election?
Where is Canada, BTW? Is it somewhere north of the US?
Hey great....Statistics is all in the presentation. Than why is everyone losing their homes, cars and why are middle class stuggling so much? What are they making it up?
No you can go to all the websites you want and look at statistics, but here is something fundamental about oil going from $14 dollars a barrel to over $100 that doesn't get lost in that statistics. Sorry, but economists are saying what I am saying.....You must be well off to not see through those numbers.
So the whack job is speaking on behalf of all Americans huh? Meh, serves you right. You deserve to die 5 years before we do.
I agree that Greenspan was part of the problem and that's why he has disappeared.
Id like to foul the cute "im a virgin till i get married"ones face on the right...
Richie probably spends most of his day swinging wildly at phantasms. He thinks everyone is everyone else.
Hey Dick, I'm not Pam (whoever the fuck that is) and I'm not Jeremy Bosco (whoever the fuck that is) and I'm not anyone you've ever spoken to. I'm just a single man, marveling at another man's idiocy.
Richie is going to accuse you of being a troll or Pam. He does this to everybody.
You obviously don't understand economics or statistics. If you go to the government's own sites (BLS.gov) you will see that under Clinton and Baby Bush they have changed the way they calculate the CPI, inflation the way it was calculated before Clinton was 11.7% last year, and has averaged over 7% this millenium. Also the inflation # they have used to calculate GDP was 2% and 1% respectively. Also, if you go to BLS.gov and look up u-6 unemployment, again the way it used to be calculated it's pushing 11%!
EVERYONE DO EXACTLY THE OPPOSITE OF WHAT THIS MORON SAYS.
HE IS THE DUMBEST POSTER ON THIS ENTIRE SITE AND THAT'S SAYING SOMETHING.
EVERY POST HE MAKES IS FULL OF TYPOS AND GRAMMATICAL ERRORS AND MANGLED IDIOMS AND BRAIN-DEAD LOGIC.
THIS MAN CAN BARELY SPEAK ENGLISH YET RUNS A LIRBARY OR SOMETHING.
HE USES PHRASES LIKE, "STREAM OF CONSCIENCE" (HAHAHAHAHA) and "SURE UP BAD LOANS" (WHAT A FUCKING IDIOT)
WHATEVER THIS MAN SAYS DO THE EXACT OPPOSITE BECAUSE HE IS TRULY STUPID.
Please excuse our Uncle Richie. He gets a little crazy now and then.
Oh God, I understand the problem, and Alan Greenspan was a big cause of it.
The correct action is to follow the recommendation of people who gave an accurate forecast of this problem several years ago, and accurately explained what the consequences would be. People like Jim Grant, John Paulson, William Fleckenstein, Paul Volker, Schiller, etc.

PS stop arguing with me and write your congressman before it too late. Seriously folks....I've written to everyone that will listen that I will not vote for anyone that backs this bill. Not even Obama.
Richard - the inflation rate from 2000 - 2007 has been around 3%, 2008 was about 5%. So I am not sure what you are talking about when you state that everything has tripled. Now if you stated something that you paid $20 for in 2000 you are paying $25 then I would agree but thats only 25% not 300%.
So you want to bail out the people that created this huge bubble?
And do you want to finally step up to the plate and say...Hey I vote for George Bush....Sorry America.
Do you honestly think people want to lose everything? Do you think that is a walk in the park?
They aren't all irresponsible....8 years ago...Before George Bush took us into the wrong war.....A persons house was affordable. Than everything went up...don't you read the stuff I write for you. Jeez. Everything has tripled in the last 8 years and pay has certainly not gone up that much. So a good part of these failed loans are due to the middle class getting the shaft and predatory lending.....
So when did you take out your loan?
Ok, so people may believe I'm Pam. It really doesn't matter to me.
You already have the bailout all figured out, Richard. You want to reward people who took out irresponsibile loans and bail them out. I have a 30 year fixed mortgage and purchased a house I could afford and you want to raise my taxes and bail these assholes out. Brilliant!
You called yourself a troll....Not me.
I love how everybody assumes all uncertified trolls are Pam.
If you are not a Pam...So be it...But she has used your name and now everyone that see's it will think it is Pam....Just a warning.
So what do you think about he $700 Billion bail out. Really?
Your un-trollishness.
Yes, listen to Uncle Richard, because he knows best. You call me a troll, because I disagree with, but I'm just a proud uncertified bastard.
Are you the guardian of bastardly?
Ignore Right Wing.....What ever it is has already admitted to being a troll.
The best solution would be, in my eyes, to sure up the bad loans. But why give Wall Street the cash. What if you gave those people that lost their homes a chance to get their homes and mortgages back on track. That may go a long way to suring up a lot of those subprime mortgages.
Meanwhile you have to let these over leveraged loan products deflate. That is the part that makes tax payers angry. Wall Street investment banks over inflated these derivatives to 5 and 6 times their value. And now they want the tax payers to cover the tab for all that over inflated money that never existed in the first place.
If you have any wheel power at all right your candidates, your congressmen and your senators and tell them that you will not support a bail out of Wall Street greed.
Instead they should use this money to give every American the change to either get their home back or get a new home. Sorry, but this deflation in the market isn't something that is unnatural.....The market was overinflated and need the air to be let out. Investment banks are just paying the cost of playing a game.
Unfortunately the only true solution is to get people able to get loans again and come up with an energy policy that lessins the price of oil or our dependence on it. America is screwed if the price of oil doesn't come down or as I said, we lose dependence. It is systemic and will lead to a true depression.
Just to note......Japan for the first time in many years has cut back exports 50% due to lack of demand and is actually having to report a trade deficit....There are humongous signs this economic problem runs very deep and that will probably cause the next worldwide depression very soon. If we spend $700 billion bailing out banks that took a risk and over inflated the market in the first place. We are only helping to keep it artificially inflated and when the market really crashes....We will have $700 billion less to do something about it.
