Only two defining forces have ever offered to die for you, Jesus Christ and the American GI. One died for your soul, the other for your freedom. "History teaches that when you become indifferent and lose the will to fight someone who has the will to fight will take over." COL.BULL SIMONS

CFC's Bob Parks: Obama's Support Plummeting "News Flash! - It took leftists seventy years of deficit spending to put the nation a trillion dollars in debt. It took Obama and Pelosi less than six weeks in power to quadruple that number while killing off any hope for a free market recovery of the economy. As more people blow off the ongoing Obama media lovefest and that tingle up the leg turns to stinging, this could be a long four years of bi-partisan, national push back. He can blame George W. Bush for his inheritance, but as many taxpayers have raised children who sought to blame everything else for things they indeed did, Obama’s I-didn’t-do-its are dropping in credibility, like his approval numbers." http://canadafreepress.com/index.php/article/9312

An American fighter jet shot down an Iranian drone as it was flying over Iraq, U.S. military sources in Baghdad tell Danger Room.....Iran has built an array of unmanned aerial vehicles, or UAVs. The pneumatically launched Ababil ("Swallow") has a wingspan of more than 10 feet, and cruises at 160 knots, according to Globalsecurity.org. The Mohajer or Misrad ("Migrant") drone is a bit smaller, and slower-flying. Article: http://blog.wired.com/defense/2009/03/us-jet-shoo...

Unfortunately with all the Billions we've poured into everything the market should be up over 10,000!! But you can can relax now because it's back down in negative territory. But to perfectly honest with you we all want the market to soar. We Republicans and Conservatives have to life on our investments. We don't get food stamps and WIC and 'The WON' hasn't sent me a check for gas or paid my mortgages(sorry..I don't have one) Know what I mean?

Sorry...Just can't help myself. Q. What’s the difference between Obama and Jesus? A. Jesus was a carpenter; Obama can’t assemble a cabinet!

Seven states posted unemployment rates larger than 10 percent in January, but thankfully Ohio was not one of them, according to figures released Wednesday morning by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. Michigan was saddled with the nation's highest jobless rate in January, 12.5 percent in statistics that were not seasonally adjusted. It had been the only state to rise above 10 percent during the previous month, December 2008. Also topping the 10-percent mark in January were Rhode Island (11.4 percent unemployment), Oregon (10.9 percent), South Carolina (10.9 percent), California (10.6 percent), North Carolina (10.3 percent) and Nevada (10.2 percent). However, Ohio's unemployment rate was 9.7 percent, just outside the double-digit range. Indiana had a rate of 9.9 percent. Wyoming registered the lowest unemployment rate of any state, 4.8 percent in the first month of 2009. It was the only state to finish under the 5-percent line. The Bureau of Labor Statistics releases two sets of unemployment rates each month. Figures that are not seasonally adjusted reflect the actual totals for the month, while numbers that are seasonally adjusted can be more easily compared from month to month. The seasonally adjusted statistics for January showed four states with unemployment of more than 10 percent, led by Michigan at 11.6 percent. The jobless rates for all 50 states were at least one point higher in January 2009 than in the same month a year earlier, on a not seasonally adjusted basis. North Carolina suffered the worst upswing in unemployment, five full points from 5.3 percent at the beginning of 2008 to 10.3 percent at the start of this year. Other sharp year-to-year increases were 4.9 percentage points in Oregon and South Carolina, 4.6 points in Michigan and Indiana, and 4.3 points in Nevada. The smallest jumps between January 2008 and the same month this year were 1.1 points in Iowa and Wyoming. http://www.bizjournals.com/dayton/stories/2009/03...

Hey 75% of the days down and 25% of the days up doesn't really get me excited when I've lost close to 50% of my income! I'd be happy for the market to recover. I also don't blindly follow ANYONE!

Especially since the last 8 out of 10 I believe have been negative. It is a nice change but the day isn't over yet unfortunately.
