  Our nation better wake up and smell the coffee. With all our bail outs along with the 168 billion economic stimulus package, that btw did nothing for our economy it is hard to understand why our government can't see the need to bail us out of our dependence on foreign oil. I am appalled at all the articulating stories of green technology losing hope of being furthered because of lower gas prices. How long does anyone really think this decline will last? OPEC holds the key and we are at their mercy. They just cut 1.5 million barrels in production a day and vow to cut more if prices don't rise again. Instead of spending billions upon billions on bailouts, why don't we instead invest in renewable energy. We have GUARANTEED returns if we do this. I just read a fascinating book by Jeff Wilson called The Manhattan Project of 2009 Energy Independence NOW . I highly recommend this book for anyone interested in seeing our country become energy independent. He has a web site he can explain it better than I .. www.themanhattanprojectof2009.com

  THE GREAT BUSH DEPRESSION
  I follow an economist named Bob Proctor. He has called the top and bottom of every market crash since the 70s correctly.
  He perfectly predicted the current meltdown and the picture he paints about what will happen next
  is terrifying.He thinks it will be worse then the great depression.
  The banks in the U.S. are going under one after the other. Countrywide ,Bear Stearns, Lehman Brothers and Merrill Lynch , Fanny and Freddy Mae ,AIG
  The government took them over because they are bankrupt. Even with the goverment nationalizing hundreds of billions of dollars in debt the stock market is crashing
  the credit markets are frozen and all of us may suffer beyond anything seen in generations
  McCain just like Bush " doesn't understand the economy".
  That not just my opinion its his own words. Not only does he not understand how to fix it but he does not understand how its been broken.
  It is no surprise that he doesn't. The people that make up these securities use quantum mathematical models very few people understand.
  Bush and McCain both can take the credit for this mess since they helped deregulate the laws that were protecting us.
  Bush's economic advisor Phil Graham wrote the deregulation bill that allowed banks to take huge risks with all of our future.
  Now, Phil Graham is the head of McCain's economic policy.He is also McCain's choice for the next secretary of the treasury.
  No one in this country can afford for that to happen. The last time Bush met with his economic advisors was in March. He was the last to know somthing was wrong. Phil Graham had the guts to say that we are in a mental recession after he helped create the worst economy meltdown in our lifetime. Check out this link to the truth http://my.barackobama.com/keatingvideo
  It will take the best and brightest minds in the world to get us out of this nightmare. As bad as Bush has done, McCain would be
  even more destructive because things are in much worse shape. The next president will not inherit a budget surplus like Bush did but a crashing economy and a 11,600,000,000,000 (trillion) dollars deficit. Most of it Bush created and it will take decades to pay it back.
  If you do what you have always done then you will get what you have always got.
  When it comes to policy Bush and McCain are the same 90 percent of the time.
  So why are the polls even close then ?
  Mccains team just said they no longer want to talk about the economy.Instead they would like to spend time talking about obama
  which means running the biggest smear campaign in history.
  They think they can just tell you lies and you wont be smart enough to see through it
  Let's teach him we are smarter than that
  Stand up and hold them accountable
  Bush isn't on the ballot this year but his policies are
  Elect Obama Biden 2008
  
  
  
  
  
  
  Check out this video of sarah palins interview and ask your self if she understands what she is talking about.
