Joplin Sings From Where-ever she is

When you think about it, Peggy Joseph must be sort of a piker... afterall, she only wished from Obama gas money and a mortage payment... J. Joplin (with a few minor corrections in red, below) had the better idea.  Too bad Joplin wasn't around to see Santa Clause elected!

Obama, won’t you buy me a Mercedes Benz ?
My friends all drive Porsches, I must make amends.
Worked hard all my lifetime, no help from my friends,
S'obama won’t you buy me a Mercedes Benz ?

Obama, won’t you buy me a color TV ?
Dialing For Dollars is trying to find me.
I wait for delivery each day until three,
S'obama, won’t you buy me a color TV ?

Obama, won’t you buy me a night on the town ?
I’m counting on you, Lord, please don’t let me down.
Prove that you love me and buy the next round,
Obama, won’t you buy me a night on the town ?

Everybody!
Obama, won’t you buy me a Mercedes Benz ?
My friends all drive Porsches, I must make amends,
Worked hard all my lifetime, no help from my friends,
S'obama, won’t you buy me a Mercedes Benz ?

Philadelphia Police Arrest Man for Wearing a McCain-Palin T-Shirt

For all you liberals that love to come here and chastise Bush and Republicans for trampling on civil rights, what the f---1 have you got to say for yourselves now?

And I make no apologies for the curse word... just don't think that that give you permission to do so in the comments.

Now It Begins!

From todays AP:  Stocks fell just shy of 500 points.  See, I told you so!

Democrats:  No fair GM, that was profit taking from a down market...

Oh Yeah?  How about this

The most cited paper was published in the Journal of Finance in October, 2003 by two University of California economists, Pedro Santa-Clara and Rossen Valkanov.  They found 9% higher stock market gains for large stocks in Democratic administrations since 1928. 

[...]

Vanguard published an excellent summary of this econometric work on October 23, 2008.  In particular, look carefully at Figure 1.  It shows that the stock market rose in every year since 1940 and that the massive rebound in 1933 from the lowest levels of the Depression overly influenced the results. It also shows that, after the Depression, the stock market grew almost equally in Republican and Democratic administrations if you drop the 1974 recession (caused by the first energy crisis, which was hardly President Nixon's fault) and the 2001 recession (which was in progress before President Bush 43 took office).  Figure 2 shows that the stock market return since 1852 has been virtually the same for Republicans at 8.66% and for Democrats at 8.97%."

And yet, the market fell 500 points the DAY AFTER Obama was elected.  BOHIC (Bend Over, Here It Comes)!

Now it is time to go to work

My comment on another blog: 

Congratulations to all of you who hoped, prayed and fought for this day. My single consolation is that America may have indeed put most of its racism behind it. Some predictions if you will.
1. Gitmo will not be closed by Obama because I don’t think he could stand the oppobrium of letting loose a bunch of terrorists.
2. We will still be in Iraq until 2011 at the earliest, and Obama will not listen to his generals in regards to Afghanistan and Pakistan will become much more dangerous.
3. Iranian intransigence will continue and even escalate.
4. Terrorism will increase in Israel with the islamofascists believing (wrongly I think) that they will have a “free hand.”
5. Inflation will hit 15% before his mid term and the republicans, if they are smart, which I doubt at this point, may make a comeback in both the house and the senate.
6. get ready for the biggest tax increases you have ever seen - women and minorities hit the hardest.
7. The Democrats in will usher in the most corrupt and free spending congress the world has seen.
8. You will get card-check and union membership will still decline as a percentage of the workforce, but the labor bosses will become more corrupt and power mad than you have ever seen.
9. The press will turn on Obama no later than the end of his first year in office.
10. despite my misgivings, and they are plenty, I remain in the game promoting conservative ideas.
To that, I will add:
11.  Obama will be a one term president.                    

 12. We have our work cut out for us and we WILL elect a conservative congress because the one led by Pelosi and Reid is the most corrupt ever.
