    ...I saw a cartoon in a men's magazine...it depicted Grandpa, rocking on the porch, with his Grand-son on his knee.

    Grandpa said to his Grand-son, "Sonny, let me tell you a story about how a little peanut-farmer from Georgia grew up to be President of the United States and fucked up the whole dad-gummed universe..."

    Obviously, it was about Jimmy Carter.

    The days of "National Malaise" are here again, I think; the "Misery Index" will be resurrected.

    Maybe they'll call it something else, though; perhaps, what...the 'Happiness Quotient'?

    It's really a tribute to Obama that he gets credit for fucking up the entire world in under a month.
    What a go-getter.

    Agreed; he's doing his best/worst.

    He's been at it much longer than that. Read up on 'bama and acorn and their little lawsuits under the community reinvestment act.

    Aye, and you, with naught but Auntie all your life.

    Besides, it is not and never was "Fox 1st, and now" whatever.

    "1st" it was CBS, NBC, ABC, PBS and CNN, which sickened me.

    Fox came much later, but you didn't know that, now, did you.
