I have to go to work, but I just heard on the TV news that Congress can't find out from the banks just exactly what the banks are they doing with the $$$$. Something about how they asked the bank guys 44 simple questions, and got 19 answers most of which were unresponsive. Then I saw one of those media snippets where a bank guy was saying yeah, some of the money may have gone to bonuses, but I can't tell you where all the money is. If somebody understands what's going on, please fill me in, I am starting to get angry, but I don't know the whole story yet.

I miss traveling with my husband. Has anyone found a specific site regarding cruising for widow/widowers or any sightseeing trips. Not interested in being with couples and kids,,,I realize a cruise ship will have a portion size of families and couples, but perhaps they also put together a part of the cruise ship for groups of widows/widowers????

A friend sent this to me..As far as I can see, grief will never truly end.It may become softer overtime, more gentleand some days will feel sharp.But grief will last as long as Love does - ForeverIt's simply the way the absence of your loved onemanifests in your heart. A deep longing accompaniedby the deepest Love some days. The heavy fog mayreturn and the next day, it may recede.Once again, it's...
In final analysis, free market means to take the money from the poor and give it all to the rich. It was their last chance to put us in poverty for the next three generations. That way, it will make it much harder to make any political change. Clinton spent eight years paying off the debt of the Reagan/Bush years. The conservative elite does not have to win anymore elections. They have what they need to retire the party. They gave all the power to the banks and the federal reserve.
Obama's place is to codify the masses. That is the reason he has picked the cabinet he has. They are their to make cosmetic changes in our country.
The only real change will come from the ground up. Another Carter or Clinton type government will do nothing on their own.
They have to feel the heat, the noise, and the fear that the people will bare down on them.
To @#$%^^$ with getting black listed or being added to a government file. It won't do them any good if they have to put more than 50% of Americans in a file. #$%#@, it would make me proud to be included in a file. It would just mean that I am not a part of their #@%@#$% system.
I'm with you Anne... it makes me so ANGRY!
