Freefall

Talk about a freefall, it sucks to be in the stock market right now. Today was the largest single one day loss on the stock market and the dollar is officially in the toilet. According to the Washington Post and CNN this is attributed to the rise in crude oil on the market, but according to some of the liberal blogs this is due to comments made by Mark Ritter (former weapons inspector) who believes the US is preparing to attack Iran in June. My opinion is maybe this is due to the President's failure to garner support from members of his own party for the personal saving accounts in social security, his lack of drive in his second term (which is always a lame duck term for a second term president), and his constant request for military funding when we were told it was only going to cost the country 1.6 billion to rebuild Iraq (As quoted on The Daily Show yesterday). Oh, and nice job on the Iraqi election. You know the one where the Iranian candidate won when you said that our guy would take it. Your all swing but no contact so far on your predictions. Good Job, Republicans. Keep up the good work of screwing the country. By the time '08 rolls around the Democrats will have nothing left to lead as the Republicans mucked it all up.
