The World Is Gonna End!!!

From Mark Levin:  http://corner.nationalreview.com/post/?q=MDExN2YzNDFkMTkxM2I1NWM5MmJiNDZmOGVmMDRkNmM=

"The liberal uses crises, real or manufactured, to expand the power of government at the expense of the individual and private property. He has spent, in earnest, 70 years evading the Constitution's limits on governmental power. If conservatives don't stand up to this, who will? If they don't offer serious alternatives that address the current circumstances AND defend the founding principles, who will? The House Republicans have done both.  And I, for one, thank them.

Incidentally, if you want to buy a home or car today you can. And if your credit is decent, you can get loans at a good rate. Last week we were told that if a deal was not struck by last Friday, our economy would collapse. It has not. That is not to say the evidence of economic troubles or worse should be ignored. It is to say that now is a time for reasoned decisions based on tried and true principles, not for abandoning them. I notice that the socialist, who, for the last 30 years, has insisted that private institutions make risky loans based on non-economic factors, still has not abandoned his policies. Socialism does not work. We shouldn't support more of it.  (emphasis added)

Remember the world meltdown we were warned was coming?  Hasn't happened.  Just more scare tactics.

In fact, stocks in Germany did go down ... by a whopping 1%.

They stayed flat in Britain and France.

The Shanghai Composite was also down ... by a whopping 0.2% (two-tenths of a per cent.)

The Hang Seng was up 0.8% (eight-tenths of a per cent)

And Bombay's BSE 30?  Well, it went up ... by 2.1%.

And right here in the USA?  After dropping 777 points (which as a percentage was not as bad as it sounded, but the liberal press won't tell you that), the Dow today gained 500+ of it back!

 

No meltdown here, folks.  Just more loud noises being made by politicians who want to line their (and their lobbyists) pockets at your expense.

Call the switchboard at (202) 224-3121 and tell them you do not want a bailout.
