    So people were crying because the TARP $$ was "never going to be paid back," and now people are crying because it's being paid back too early and without sufficient interest??!

    Does the whining never end?

    Surely your computer has a calculator built in.

    Bombs, bullets and bailouts aren't cheap. If you're only going to parrot talking points and not offer solutions, zip it.

    Actually, it hasn't. Reagan's initial tax increase did the opposite and helped stabilize a crap economy.

    As I pointed out yesterday (don't you read your own threads?), the number isn't "over 90%" -- it's 86%, and the number of eligible incumbents really wasn't that large, comparatively.

    The 2nd Repub bloodbath in 2 elections can easily be read as a vote for Congressional sea change. (Not that it will happen; just that it's the clear will of the people.)

    I look forward to your post tomorrow, in hopes that it will be identical to the one from today and yesterday. At this point, you're one step away from notsosmart, who consistently uses the 6th-grade term "sheeples" as though this were Fark or 4Chan rather than Seeking Alpha.
