Pissy? I'm congratulating you. Things are going your way. Gas prices will continue to rise, business will continue to flounder, debt and deficit will keep going up.
Obviously just what you were looking for.

Your guys had their chance to tell their story about how they would fix it. All they could muster was to lower taxes. Again.

Their brain death caught up with them and not a minute too soon.

I forget the details of that now. Oh yeah. There weren't any details.

It boils down to this, Was. The Republicans are willing to blow up tbe global economy in order not to break their oath to Norquist. It's really that simple.

Proud of yourselves?

If you think that had more to do with the re-election of Obama than it did with worries over the European economy I think you are very mistaken, and I ain't even a democrat.

Gas prices have been going down....around here, anyway. I payed $3.28/gal for midgrade this morning. Last week it was ~$3.50 How much is it in your neck of the woods?

It was both. But, you're right. Europe is the larger factor and will continue to be into next year.

BTW, doesn't the XL Pipeline issue come back up in the spring? If that goes through, and I'm thinking it may, then that is yet another GOP bitching point they will no longer have.

Regards,
Dave

No fair being objective around here.

BTW, you can tell me that it is none of my business, but did you get past being undecided?

Regards,
