FINANCIAL CRISIS

I hear many talking heads on the tube referring to the current economic crisis as the worst since the GREAT DEPRESSION.

When the crash of 1929 occured, there were 2 major differences between then and now, In 1929 there wasn't a foolish war that has run up a debt that is beyond comprehension. That may make 2008 worse than 1929.

The Republicans, once self styled as the party of fiscal responsibility has over the past 8 years gone totally bonkers. They behave like a drunk gambler in a crooked casino.

They've been playing poker with the economy and losing every pot. On election day, lets hope they are holding the "dead man's hand", and the "marshall" drags them feet first out the door and up to "Boot Hill".
