That’s a nice comparison. Here’s one coming soon to a city near you. Thanks for the stimulus Dems.

Do an image search on Google for “Great Depression Bread Lines” for many more.

AJ,

Now this is what I call extremely intellectually lazy or maybe you just don’t have any knowledge about the subject at head.

Now, will you explain to us what you are attempting to tie together and communicate concerning the Stimulus Bill that was passed the Time’s article that you pasted concerning bankers and the “Great Depression”? Explain to us how they tie together to this present situation, the “Stimulus Bill or whatever it is that you are trying to communicate.

Kevin Horrigan:

With support like OBAMA has, he should have no difficulty finding many millions of co-signers for the trillions we have to borrow for his FY 2010 budget. Unless of course, the majority of his supporters are deadbeats and leeches.

If I was to judge the people in the pictures (looks can be deceiving I realize, but, I would guess that these people are stones throw away from poverty. How blind they are to continuously fall for the ideology and noise of the Republican Party. They’re all only interested in appeasing the greedy blind rich who are not interested in your best interests or what is good and just for our citizens. When will you ones ever learn? We must get rid of all politicians both Republicans and Democrats who do not have the best interests of its citizens at heart and only businesses with large net profits and the lobbyists who represent them.

They don’t even have the best interests of the majority of small businessmen at heart whose profits are much less than 250K per year. Lets just hope that government can return to having the best interests of the people at heart since these greedy businessmen are finding it hard to find the money to buy off our politicians. Maybe we can clean of government and get it back to where it is suppose to be, for the people FIRST, not business people.

We have become a sick nation of people when you hear people say that healthcare should be a luxury and not a right.

Mr. Horrigan - This has to be the laziest, most useless thing that I’ve ever seen on these pages. To compare an impromptu protest to a visit, just weeks before the election, of a historic Presidential nominee, is just plain absurd. And posting a couple of snapshots as a substitute for actually writing an editorial is something I’d expect my 13 year old son to try.

> We have become a sick nation of people when you hear people
> say that healthcare should be a luxury and not a right.

D. Walker - What I don’t understand is, healthcare has never in this nation’s history been considered a right. So how have we “become a sick nation” if we don’t accept a right that never has existed?

Lazy? Well, maybe if it was the only other thing I was doing today, but I’m busy with several other left-wing, commie, pinko, confiscatory, socialist projects today as well.

Useless? I don’t think so.

Impromptu? From what I read, this was a viral sensation, taking flight across the wingnut blogosphere. Heck, you had Dana Loesch AND Jamie Allman.

Snapshots? Those are high-quality newspaper photographs made by professional photojournalists, buster.

Nick,

That doesn’t make it okay. But, never in a time as today, did doctors and hospitals turn away people who needed medical attention.

And, let’s not talk about how corporations are making us sick from pesticides, growth hormones and all sorts of harmful additives today like no other time in our history all in the name of the mighty dollar. We are today being slowly poisoned and are becoming sicker in need of medical care.

Hah! That is a funny set of pictures. Not only was the rally pathetic, but it was what they call an “astroturf” rally: that is, a rally that pretends to be organized by citizens but actually was coordinated from well-funded national right-wing think tanks. Here’s the story with some fantastic investigative journalism: http://www.dailykos.com/story/2009/2/28/22947/5824/608/703150 (actually it’s a diary that talks about the original story, because the original link is dead).

D. Walker,

I was searching for pictures of groups of people and the Great Depression bread lines seemed like they should be thrown in there. I’m mean Horrigan just picked two pics that had nothing to do w/ each other and posted them. It had nothing to do with the Time article but more about the image in the article. Looking back I should have just linked into other bread line images from Google.

Please forgive me lest I know not what I’m doing. I’m waiting for my government stimulation so I can afford some real computer classes. I’m hoping it comes real soon as the Messiah promised. Otherwise, those bread lines will become real life.

Welcome to the Obama Bear Market. Down nearly 20% since he took office. Boy, there is really something to this Hope and Change you all voted for.

Adam,

“Here’s the story with some fantastic investigative journalism”

and you link into the Daily Kos? Oh boy. Your prescription, or gin, has run out. Maybe the Messiah get you some more.
