the real "blame game" that is about to happen

[garybeck]

we all know Bushco made things worse and people are suffering and dying because of their incompetance and disinterest in the disaster.

but you know where the real blame game is going ot be on this? NOLA is going to be blamed on the huge economic disaster that's coming. Every time the stock market dives, every time the price of gas goes up, every time inflation hits, every time the jobless rates go up, Bush is going to go on TV and blame it on Katrina. And when the next election comes around, more of the same.

2. Yup. Thats why it is vital to tie the lack of fed response

to Bush and his administration.

Katrina wasnt his fault, the flood was.

3. but let's not forget, the ecomony was tanking before this happened

gold was already at 450
huge budget deficits
stock market has been even in the last 5 years

my prediction - the next thing to go is interest rates, and then the housing market is toast.

As they talk about a "roaring" economy...The stockmarket hasn't left

the 10,500 range in over three years. Up & down!

(Around 11K when Bush took office, to put it in prespective).

Yes, blame Clinton!

4. not sure it would be wise for bush to blame stuff on Katrina

knowing it would, well, remind the voters of Katrina

8. Of course Rove will!

6. The recession is coming IMO...

Ive been squerreling away as much overtime as I can because the sky is getting dark and theres a storm a brewin.

Even before Katrina Ive been saying this. After Katrina, Look Out!

Remember the Reagan recession? That was a walk in the park.

Jeez! I feel like theres a time clock for the American Dream, and its ticking down. All because people are too dumb to vote in their own best interest. Ignorant bastards!

7. The greed of the oil company's (gas price's) will dictate it!

Record profit's. Because they are so sick with greed, they can't stop, and we're fucked, while at their "mercy".

What mercy? They have none, as we can all see!!!
