More Wall Street Problems

Today, the main article at Reuters.com was about Obama's 700 billion dollar wall street bailout. Where did he get the money for that? That is an absurd amount of money. He said it won't all be paid now but over time. The thing that bothers me the most is the fact that he doesn't know what kind of impact it will have on the economy. Why the heck would you have a plan that you have no idea what it is going to do to the great US of A? Isn't that the point of having a plan, so you can pull the country out of depression or fix a problem? Not maybe fix it, but a guarantee fix it.

The rest of the article had a nice introduction to the debate of Friday between the two candidates, McCain and Obama. McCain mentioned that it was going to be hard in these debates because Obama is a very, very good speaker. Then, out of the blue, the article had a few short paragraphs about Palin and her foreign policies and her meeting with leaders of Afghanistan and Colombia as well as former Secretary of State Henry Kissinger on the fringes of the U.N. General Assembly in New York. This kind of caught me off guard. The rest of the article was a bunch of he said she said crap about the crash again. Something that was 'so last week'. I'm not embarrassed that I just wrote that, because it wasn't 'so last week'. It's now, and the rest of my life. This election could depict how I live my life and my children's lives.
