Falling dollar.. Good or bad?

[wez]

So.. I'm driving to school listening to Rush Limbaugh rant about the bailouts.. saying the market has dropped 250+ points today.. claiming we're now gonna bail out credit card companies and we will be "paying for peoples dinners", which I find odd all the sudden because everyone knew we were bailing out the banks and who did he think the credit card companies were?..

 

Anywho, I appreciate his rant about the bailouts but what I don't understand is he blames Obama for all of it even though he is'nt even yet the President.. Claims Obama wants all this "confusion and turmoil" as if things were just peachy keen til Obama ran for pres.. The world has gone mad...

 

 

Does he realize this has been coming for 15 years and all these bailouts are on the watch of the so called conservative pres he was supporting since Clinton was in office???

 

 

Off with his fat fukkin' head.. We can make soup out of it..

I don't listen to Rush but I bet he was talking about how the Fed decided to change the status of American Express to now being a "bank holding company" so it can get money from the Fed. The same kind of move he did for Morgan Stanley and Goldman Sachs so they could get cheap money from the Fed.

I just got home from the hospital in the town where I live here.. I'll be doing clinicals there this week and next.. Apparently Fairview just let every single LPN in their whole system go.. W.T.F.?

 

Just down to the RN's.. which is what I'll be when I'm done, but still.. No LPN's? That's insane.. RN's gotta take over all that stuff now.. Our hospitals pretty small but Fairview is huge.. The U of M.. Fairview South.. bunch of other huge hospitals in the cities.. All of em.. No LPN's.. Unreal..

 

 

Not sure if it's just MN but I doubt it.. I think Fairview is nationwide.. not sure though. Anyone know?

 

 

Saw one lady there who looked pretty damn sad.. Worked as an LPN like 38 years..

 

 

Must be Obami's fault.. Just ask Rush... Better hurry though, he aint gonna have a head for long..

[rant]I'm getting sick of this bailout crap! Paulsen says that the "facts on the ground" have changed so he wants to redirect the bailout money. What facts? It was the fact they didn't think this through before they started crying wolf.

 

It would have been cheaper to give every man, woman, and child a million dollars. Let them do with it what they want. Pay their bills, pay off their homes, buy a new house, buy a new car. It doesn't matter, the money will be in the system. Inflation would be no more of a concern than it will be with the government printing the bailout money.[/rant]

Not sure, but I think he said he wouldn't apologize.

I heard he did.. a couple times on the radio today.. I even heard Barney Frank was finally throwing a hissy fit..

 

 

These people need to go.. The federal reserve needs to be banned.. now!

 

 

Pr cks are doing this crap all over the world for 2 centuries.. Playing both sides.. creating enemies.. starting wars.. indebting nations.. They have no loyalty to anyone but themselves.. and no desire other than to rule the fukkin world.

 

 

The epitome of evil..

 

 

How could we be so stupid and let this happen? Can't assassinate all of us..

Wants banks to "resume normal lending"???

 

 

What does that even mean? Continue to do what got us into this mess in the first place? Then what? We all freaking starve to death? Is that the plan Hank?

 

Control the banks.. control the world?

 

Fukk them.. Don't need em.. But they need me and everyone else to play ball.. People have to refuse to "borrow" no matter what.. Only then will things change..

 

Responsible banks and lenders are getting screwed the worst.. and strong armed to play ball, or else..

 

 

The Fed, Federal Deposit Insurance Corp., Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, and Office of Thrift Supervision said all financial institutions were expected to follow the new guidelines, even those not receiving federal assistance.

 

This stuff makes no logical sense.. other than utter manipulation to indeed create a "one world government"..

 

Better get my ass to church, eh?

 

Nahhhhhhhh..

I don't think that's the issue. People see the writing on the wall. Barack Obama, Joe Biden and the leaders of both houses of Congress want to take away/restrict the options for gun ownership/possession.

 

I predict an attack on both the second amendment, and the first amendment in the near future.

Good luck with that... Try taking a bunch of paranoid schizo's guns away.. hahahaha

 

 

So you think people just want guns cause they're afraid someone will tell them they can't have guns, or else?

 

Makes no sense to me.. Why the sudden surge then? If they wanted em, they would already have them..

First off, appearantly you're a moron. Remember what I do for a living. I have taken guns from crazy people. I've entered many a situation where I've had someone that was "crazy" that had a gun, had to deal with them and take it away from them.'

 

So please don't talk to me about that scenario, unless you've been there.

 

I've been there and I still support the Second Amenedment of the U.S. Constution.

Second. Yes. The same thing happened in 1994 right before the assault weapons ban, and amazingly their instincts were right too.

 

In the past, Barack Obama has supported legislation to ban all semi-sutomatic firearms, supported the now deemed unconstitutional D.C. gun ban, and wanted to limit the manufactuare, possession and purchasing of firearms.

 

Amazing how Obama ran on a pro second amendment platform but this is his history. The only time he voted pro gun was to vote for allowing retired police officers in Illinois to carry concealed, and that was only because he needed the support of the FOP (Fraternal Order of Police Union) at the time.

 

Joe Biden said he could have prevented the Virginia Tech massacre if the assault weapons ban didn't expire, if they closed the supposed "gun show' loophole and passed his "armor piercing bullet" legislation, and focused on mental illness that would have allowed faculty to exclude the subject from campus pending mental evaluations or get guns if deemed to have mental issues.

 

Let's take Biden's BS one by one.

 

First, the offender at VT didn't use a single gun that the assault weapons ban would have covered.

 

Second, he bought the guns at the same kinds of gun stores that Biden said he wouldn't have been able to buy one if the gun show "loophole" was closed.

 

Third, none of the bullets used were actual armor piercing bullets. The bullets Biden wanted to classify as armor piercing, are norman hunting and personal defense rounds. Nothing exotic or exceptional.

 

Lastly, is a mixed bag. The mental health thing is something that could be addressed if faculty, university and pollicy, but the denying of the purchase of a firearm by someone who has been in a mental institution currently can't be checked. Thanks to the Liberals and the HIPPA law, enacted by the same liberals who want to know why a person who has a history of mental health got a gun, there is no way for law enforcement to check this in most states and for the most part not across state lines. It's a bunch of BS and a reason to take guns away. The liberals won't allow law enforcement to keep track of who has been in a mental institution, so they can accurately assess who should have a gun permit, but want firearms to be registered and tracked so that they can know what firearms all the normal people have.

 

Ask yourself, which one is more invasive, and more of a violation of rights. The one that could protect the population, or the one that is nothing but a move toward "Big Brother"?

 

Don't worry though. Shortly after they take over and suppress the Second Amendment, they plan on suppressing the First Amendment, just as they already did in the campaign. When someone questioned them they were blackballed, when it seemed the election was in hand, they kicked all the pro-McCain reporters off their plane, supposedly for "space" reasons, but they were replaced with more than twice the number of people that were removed.

 

They will go after, and try to implement the "Fairness Doctrine" which is acutally nothing but the "Censorship Doctrine" and there are already, Obamamanicas that are defending this censorship by saying it's the same as President Lincoln did during the Civil War, to suppress reporting.

 

The censorship doctrine only suppresses the opposition, not those in favor. How is that not a violation of the First Amendment?

I don't recall the 2nd amendment requiring a person be sane to own a gun.. You must hate the constitution.. Commie pig.

 

Who are you to decide who's "crazy" and take their gun away? Someone who's threatening you or others with a gun as you threaten people with guns because it's "your job"? I guess your gun is no good if someone else has one too, eh? Everyone knows all cops with guns don't have mental issues and an uncanny ability to diagnose insanity. Matter of fact, there's never been even one cop in the history of the United States with mental issues..

 

Just ask TJ..

 

Perhaps I need to take your gun away..

[wez]

Hey Mr. 2nd Amendment, when you enter a situation with your gun drawn do you frisk and take peoples weapons away even if they aren't using them in a threatening manner, like yourself, to "protect" yourself?

 

 

What about their "protection" from you who has a gun in their face?

 

 

Does pointing a gun in someones face determine insanity and a badge provides mental stabilty, thus, the right to point guns in peoples faces?

 

 

You're right.. the 2nd amendment is under attack.. everytime you take someones weapons away, or else, when they are merely possessing them.. Unlike you who has a gun drawn on them..

You're so silly. No. I don't determine when someone is crazy or not. I have on occasion been able to talk a gun away from people who are either threatening to shoot themselves or another person. It's up to a doctor and a judge to decide if someone has a mental disease.

 

Just trying to keep people alive.

 

By the way. My gun is plenty good even if someone else has one. I have no problem with people having legally possessed guns.

 

Jump to conclusions much?

Maybe not the 2nd amendment but and amendment to the amendment states nobody that has mental health issues or is a convicted felon lose their 2nd amendment rights.

I think the reason is twofold. They are afraid their right will be taken away and crime is on the rise. Criminals will always get guns illegally anyways, so why shouldn't a good citizen be able to protect themselves. Where I currently reside (and I pray that isn't for long) you hear of home invasions on a daily basis on the news now.

That's scarey. My son's paternal grandmother is a nurse and has worked at her hospital for 19 years. She says recently they have cut back and she has had to use vacation time to get her reg 40 hours. They flex everybody down quite a bit. I hadn't heard of the lpn loss, but it doesn't really surprise me. The motto nowadays is more for less it seems.

It is scarey.. LPN's are needed.. Nurses can't do all that stuff alone.. I get one patient in clinicals and it's tough.. Working RN's get 5 or 6..

 

I think a lot of sick people are not going in who should... most likely cause of money.. It is ridiculous expensive. Lots of jobs gone everywhere.
