Cartoon From 1934 Chicago Tribune
« on: Apr 18, 2009, 04:25:41 PM »
Thought some of you might find this interesting.  Other than a few name changes, it looks very familiar 75 years later doesn't it?

My goal in life is to be as a good a person as my dog already thinks I am.

You can go through life being scared of the possible, or you can have a little fun and tease the inevitable.

Give a man venison, he'll eat for a day. Teach a man to hunt Blacktail, he'll be frustrated for life!

Maybe too close for comfort!

Well, we have been through it before (more than once) and survived -- thrived, even. 
Let's hope we can survive this go-around and come out stronger.

I'll admit there are moments when I wonder if our country's finances are little more than the world's biggest Ponzi scheme -- spending more than we have and counting on the growth of future generations to pick up the tab.

The best minds available  :rofl2:  cannot agree on how to properly handle the situation, so I guess we ride it out and let history be the judge.
My goal in life is to be as a good a person as my dog already thinks I am.

If the obamanation and the rest of the elected henchman would have stopped at returning to carteresque policies it would have sucked to say the least.  But with the return of FDR we are royally fawked.

Full hydro, 186:1 with an auto and 44's what could go wrong??
