"What exactly would you do about the current economic situation ? "

First, the American people are hurting and have lost all confidence in the current administrations abilities and honesty. I'd start impeachment proceedings which I think would be well accepted and instill some faith back into the public.

I'd stop shoring up the strategic oil reserves as Bushco has been doing since day one first term helping drive up oil prices worldwide.

I'd send Condi to beg at the UN on her knees for help in Iraq or we will be there bleeding cash for another fifty years.

I'd cease the idiotic Corn Ethanol program and I'd move toward nationalizing big Oil in the U.S. as it's proven time and again the price of oil is vital to our economy and national security.

What about you Oregonian? Another war? Print more money?

At that point, aren't they basically mercenaries for the big oil companies? Except, that in typical American (not really) capitalism, the bill gets paid by the tax payers.

Can anyone here tell me why G W was on DEAl or NO DEAl instead of ARE YOU SMARTER THAN A FIFTH GRADER?

WTF!?! Did Bush say that Saddam Hussein killed Nelson Mandela? WTF!?!

Not just Nelson.... "All" the Mandelas. "See, he was a, uh....uh......a brutal tyrant."
