Is this right? 8 years ago GM stock was at $90. The dollar was worth 1.5 Euro. Today the same share of GM stock is at $11.5. One Euro is worth 1.5 dollars. That means what was once worth $17.60 in GM stock during the Clinton years (in today's dollar) is now worth only $1 after 8 years of Bush?
I am not very smart on these things, so I went to GM on internet. They had lots of truck, large cars and the small cars, who could afford?? Maybe with gas prices, no one is buying trucks and large cars and that is why the value is down. But like l said, I don't know.
Thank you barefootangel. I really have a problem with people that blame all todays problems on Bush. So I guess if Obama makes it we will see 100% turn around?? No, people will still blame Bush.
No, thank you! I figured I would get slammed all over the place because I didn't blame today's heat on President Bush (yes, I will give the office and the man the respect).
I get it, you guys that elected W can't admit that you messed up! It's a proven fact that conservatives can't change. They get upset if they have to take a different rout into town. In this case you messed up really really bad, and it may end up costing this country it's freedom when all is said and done. Maybe God wants to provide a lesson to all those folks that need to learn to admit when they messed up, and how to accept change. It has started by taking away your pickup trucks. For every 25 cent increase in gas, thats a million red-neck pickups taken off the road.
Mercedes, I am not upset, but my goodness you seem to be. If you are not happy with our government
then please vote for Sen. Obama. I am not worried about America's freedom, since July 4, 1776, when our
independence was declared, people have stood up for it, fought for it and loved it. My oldest son has a huge red desiel truck, he pays a high price for gas, but just like in the 1970's this too shall pass. BFA
I and most of the people I know will defend our freedom until the gun is pried from my stiff, cold fingers. The liberals who want the government to control everything will try to take our rights and our freedom, but they won't succeed. I read an interesting article about the men who signed the Decleration of Independence and the hell they went through because of it. They lost family, homes, were beaten and berated by the british. They endured this so you can have the right to run your big mouth and state your opinion without oppression. The 4th of July is near, I hope you appreciate what it really means. GOD BLESS AMERICA!!!
I don't need the 4th of July to celelabrate the Declaration of Independence. I read it at least twice a month, every month. Men and woman have been fighting and dying though every year since that day so that not only I but you may voice your opinion. By doing it this way, we don't hurt each other, but you sound like I'm lucky you can't see me right now. Have a nice day. BFA
ATBMAN, we all love America and want the best. We can only pray that the one that get in office will love our country as much. Just got bad new about grandkid must sign off. I really mean have a nice day. BFA
ATBMAN needs to know that the Bush Administration used 911 to push the Patriot Act through Congress. This was the greatest infringements against our civil rights to date. Go ahead and defend it because it was Bush defending us against the bad guys, then turn around and say it's the liberals... If you don't have privacy you don't have anything. Things you do at home with your partner, decisions about you family, your body should be your decision right? Not if conservatives have their way. They want to tell you who you can and cannot marry - if you are gay. They want to tell you that you cannot get an abortion if your pregnant and you can't deal with it. They also want to put you to death, for a crime you didn't commit. Look at all the folks getting pardoned from death row after DNA clearly showed that they had nothing to do with the crime. How is it the government can commit murder and all the good Nazis just bury their heads in the sand. For Heaven sakes, read this: http://newsfeedresearcher.com/data/articles_w24/idw2008.06.09.01.23.44.html and then tell me Bush is not a cold blooded murderer.
I'm truly sorry for anyone that has lost a loved one in this war, I will never know the pain you feel, and can only imagine it would be overwhelming. I also will never feel the pain a child felt, hugging her mother's dead body. I will never feel the level of pain this child felt when she later died from exposure in the Iraqi desert, fleeing an unseen monster, that happened to be a frightened little man living in a big white house in DC that just got way in over his head.
WHERE AND WHEN DO WE BEGIN TO REBUILD? AFTER WE HIT BOTTOM AND ADMIT WE HAVE A HUGE PROBLEM. GOD HELP THE NEXT PRESIDENT, ESPECIALLY IF HE IS WAY TOO OLD. PLEASE LET'S NOT GO FROM RETARD TO SENILE. TREAT YOURSELF TO A PRESIDENT THAT HAS A FULLY FUNCTIONAL BRAIN THIS TIME.
