She could not even name the hometown paper! I suggest we all send her a debate gift, and send papers from every big city to tiny hamlet in the United States. If she reads them all, she can then back up that preposterous claim!

I guess the Cards game will be locally blocked out if the stadium is not sold out. I have faith it will be sold out, I can’t believe that raiders/chargers game is not sold out yet. Too bad for them but I live in AZ (northern AZ) just in case they block the game.

Comment on Should Credit Card Debt be Illegal? by George

Now, it is the time to make the use of credit cards illegal. Credit cards destroy lives and they can put people like me in a trap for the rest of your life. Credits are nothing, but legal frauds. Please make credit cards illegal, now.

I honestly think any money to put back in the economy is the best thing right now. There is no telling how long this thing will last, hopefully no too long.

Wow, didn’t realize that’s what it only came out to $8 a week! Did you do the math for that or where did you find that?

If that is the case, I think it will at least raise consumer confidence so that the overall impact will be people spending more than just an extra $8 a week. Still, it’s hard to say how much this will help…. No matter what happens, we’re not going to get out of this until we’ve addressed the things that got us here.

“There’s no doubt that things have gone terribly wrong under Bush’s tenure, but is he really the one to blame?”

Hell yeah! Do you really think the Republicans are serving in your best interests?

Could you post your articles to Gather, again?

On topic, I don’t think the failure of the financial firms is the result of any government decision. “Investment” is just another word for gambling. Retirement plans (IRA, 401k) are not a replacement for basic savings.

I blog from a decidely left of center view, but in all honesty, I cannot see how we cannot at the very least partially blame Bush for the slump our economy finds itself in at this moment in our history.

And trust me, they blame game will just shift ( and it has already partially shifted ) to the incoming administration, as we continue to have to take drastic measures to shore up an already lagging US Economy…I’ve already heard the rumblings from Republicans in the Senate wanting to block anymore bailout money being given out.

Blaming Bush has become so cliche and so easy. Read the editorial pages in those soon-to-be bankrupt newspapers and Bush is blamed for almost everything. Fix The Pig is correct that W has been far from ideal, but the hatred out there for our president has been embarrassing.
