The Cost of 9/11

Too depressing to even look at.  Don't bother - suffice to say, Bin Laden was exponentially more successful than he could've even dreamed, thanks to our incrediblly massive over-reaction.  There's no inch of our financial downturn that isn't directly related to Bush's credit card war.  I'd normally be upset about this, but in watching right now I see that Brenda has dropped out of the University of Minnesota and surely will join the gang at Cal U, therein making the Dylan/Kelly situation murkier.  Jesus.  Shit's getting for reals  :(

over-reaction!? Let's just see what kind of reaction the over printing of money (to the tune of...have we lost count?) is going to have on America's economy, not to mention our CREDIT CARD war? Too depressing to look at but we will leave that for the unborn, if they live to make it out of the womb, thank you not so much, Mr. OB-Gygross.

This is a really stupid statement - "There's no inch of our financial downturn that isn't directly related to Bush's credit card war." No one in big business (or small) trusts Obama not to keep taking their money via new taxes, health care and over-regulation, so jobs and corresponding economy will flounder. Businesses don't care what you blame on Bush. They have to plan for their futures. Why is that so hard for liberals to understand? Does any Democrat understand even Econ 101? YORF!

according to this guy http://thinkprogress.org/economy/2011/09/02/310818/small-business-contradicts-gop-taxes-regulation/

the opposite is true re: taxes/regulation. But he didn't take JR Smith's economy class, so I'm not going to pop a hamstring defending his cred, obviously.
