Great, Depression!

[Vuk]

Wait, wondering aloud whether the current recession is serious is a liberal thing? Man, what don't those libs have ownership of?

Sir, turn off the Sean Hannity and step away from the radio slowly ...

Xiahou, good points and a helpful chart.

Vuk, you forgot to blame the liberal media for everything. You can't just call them "media" and walk away whistling.

I never cease to find it amazing how everything back here breaks down into predictable (if illogical) partisan lines. I could post that I read somewhere that thunderstorms are very dangerous in Iowa, and I have no doubt that one of our rightwing Orgahs would tell me that thunderstorms are a figment of the liberal media socialist elite's imagination ...

Amazing how it breaks down to partisan lines? Who said anything partisan, you or me? I said the media, not the liberal media. I never suggested that liberals were or were not to blame, you did. Not only is that an accusation sir, it is a false accusation.
I delibrately did not say anything partisan, because I did not want to be drawn into a debate that I simply just do not have time for. If I was to bring up partisanism, I would have said that the liberal media caused the greatest financial crisis that the earlymodern/modern would has seen so that they could get FDR elected and impose their political and economic policies on America. The same crisis that Hitler used to gain power. Similarly they did it again to get Obama elected. Now that he is in power they will do the same thing, making the American people feel desperate enough to accept every liberal policy they introduce in hopes of saving them. I could have said that, but I didn't.
