Four more years! Or eight is enough?
How will the Bush years go down? The deficit is at an all-time high, the dollar is at an all-time low. Stocks are plunging, gas is rising, government corruption is rampant. We are a trillion dollars into a war that will never end. Home equity is disappearing. Job creation is at an all-time low. The Communist Chinese and the Saudi's are laughing all the way to the bank. How are we doing?

It's a very simple thing. The dollar is a fiat currency. That means it's backed by nothing and only worth as much as it's perceived to be worth, which, of course is the country which is backing it.
So, America's financial perception is what matters.
And, as long as we're bleeding billions and billions of dollars in Iraq, it's going to be perceved as unreliable and unsound to be used, making things get worse and worse and worse.
Both McCain and Hillary, who have the highest odds of getting elected plan on keeping us there, indefinitely and seem to be abhorrent to the fact I just presented.
So, it's not ending any time soon. If you are concerned about your financial welfare in the next decade, at least, the best odds are to move out of the US.

Your statement is true. However isn't this preferable to having leaders who lie about sex. Invading a foreign country, overthrowing thier goverment and killing innocent people under false pretenses is not a crime. Lying about sex relations under oath, is a crime. The Republican party has fulfilled its promise to return the US to moral decency.
El_Hefe's picture makes the point. Wouldn't you rather have hundreds of thousands of Amercans losing their homes than to have a woman doing what is depicted in the picture to our President?
The Vice President having residual profits from the 'endless war' he advised we get into, is the true spirit of American enterprise. This not a crime. Other parties may have wasted our resources trying to help poor people turn into more productive citizens.
