My theory: The Obama effect: All the liars and schemers are being exposed:

[jazzjunkysue]

And that accounts for all the scoundrels getting rounded up and frogmarched.

I think. or at least, I hope, there is a limited supply of the scumbags who have been operating under the cover of the B* crime family. When these are finally aired out and the losses are taken, we'll level off and find the bottom of the market and the bank fallout.

Criminals knew they could keep getting away with it while the cowboy had his appointees ignoring their jobs. But they know, now, that Obama's people are going to notice that some stuff just doesn't add up, and they're going to start asking questions.

I attribute this sudden drop to the criminals dropping their bags of money on the way out of town.

There is an end to it. I hope we're getting close.

What do you say, DU?

1. I say, Good Call!

And this is only the beginning. Really, I hope it will be a whole new world, where the fatcat punks actually start paying!

2. I like that take. :)

It's like the infection has to rise to the surface to be healed, once and for all.

Let's finally clearly expose all the shit that has strangled this country for too long...even if it's a painful process. Acknowledge the disease then work in unison to heal it.

Hopefully more and more will SEE the disease that we've seen for so long, rather than continue to hide their heads in the sand or, worse, deny there is a disease.

3. I hope so. I also hope that every time a Congressperson or a Senator

gets up on the podium and lies or rewrites history, that they get a massive migraine every time that they do.
