    They gambled and they lost, and now they have to pay. Live by the capitalism sword, die by the capitalism sword.

    And better they should pay with their hard assets than my tax dollars.

    Yeah, why be a criminal if you can't be cool?

    I will agree that indeed agree that the bottom is not yet in view in any predictable fashion and ,tritely, won???t know until it is well past, my view is perhaps more ominous. I see us that instead of looking into a dark well; we are viewing a yawning vortex whose dimensions??? we cannot yet plumb.

    Your assertion that in balance this has been conservative administration is more willful blindness, than realistic appraisal. The so-labeled ???neo-con???s??? incitement of reckless abandon in foreign policy and aggressive war-making and reputed war-crimes is not conservative.

    The accumulation of unfundable debt and asset depreciation is unprecedented, and is in essence antithetical to any Republican-Conservative policy position I know.

    The unbelievable degradation of our military readiness both short and long term is certainly a threat to any claim of superpower status.

    Will our final epithet also be ???Alas Babylon????
