Mezz, you've certainly stirred up some circular confabulation. Well at least a curved one.

The only pot he's stirred up is his own cranial excrescence.

Mezz, don't be so bashful and admit it. Your real problem is that Obama is a Muslim and a foreigner.

Broke my heart to put folks out of work and reduce others to part time hours, but the ship was sinking and we had to save who/what we could or we all would have gone under. America is broken and it's leadership is corrupt and extremely incompetent. You should be embarrassed to be oblivious to it. There are a lot of good and responsible folks there who will make it right again when they get their chance. Until then ordinary people are the ones being hurt by the damage that this reckless admin has wrought. When things turn back I'll help by reinvesting, but in the meantime I've cut my loses like so many others already have and like so many, many are going to have to very soon.

Wake up people, swallow your hubris and face what is seriously wrong. Obama is nobody's hero and he and his administration are rife with corruption. Chicagoans know.

Most of you are too old to be stuck in the kind of hypocrisy which for example made you against the Patriot Act but ok with political shenanigans at the IRS, NSA and the DOJ. Just one example, but a far reaching one for infringement of your rights. Once those are gone it will be too late for a peaceful solution. Wise up and stop being part of the problem.
When conservatives and libertarians say 'the market handles things' what they mean is folks like mezz decide where investment goes, based on whatever feels right to them.

Therefore markets are always beneficial and correct in how they 'handle' things. Aren't they?

Hey Mezz, are you like Zerojunk's Junkyard dog?

This place certainly does appear to need some stirring up occasionally. Of course the result is always similar to what occurs when you stir Carl's bowl.

The red streak was a reference to your flash or anger, not everything's political you know.

The trolls here are all on your side. I'm like that guy who used to walk the aisles in church with a long pole with a wooden ball at the end tapping folks on the head who fell asleep. Politically you're all snoring. Wake up and salvage some portion of your lives from the clutches of idiocy.

Conservatives and libertarians? Why hasn't Obie regulated derivatives? Why didn't Clinton?

They weren't on Clinton's radar.

As for President Obama, hmmm...I can think of several theories.

Because he's incompetent, Kenyan, and hates America? Because the Repubs keep blocking him at every turn? Because his buddies on Wall Street asked him not to, very nicely?

Actually, need data to answer. Got any?
