An NPD just sounds like a sneaky asshole to me. I really don't find this type in social media to be honest. Anyway interesting discussion and article. Sat Oct 11 02:45:24 UTC 2008 http://www.mixx.com/stories/2397681/signs_of_narcissism comment_171027 I don't think the answer is to close Wall Street down. The drop is obviously needed to bring down the inflated prices of assets and oil. Economies work off of bubbles and this one has popped. I agree with Zaibatsu, I think the bottom will be mid 7000's. Today's drop was the biggest percentage drop on the Dow since the 1987 crash. That $700 billion is pennies when you consider the treasury loaned $420 billion just last week to financial institutions. DOW falling or not our dollar is becoming worthless, blewaah.

The last time and only time there was anything similar was in 2001 when the ECB (European Central Bank) cut interest rates with the Federal Reserve.

I'm not in the loony bin yet, ALL politicians whether they are new or not are full of hyperbole and BS. This title however, was really full of it. Still made me laugh and it created a great discussion thread. Good job Reg. Hehe.

What I specifically said is that I couldn't believe the title of this submission because it was blatantly false. In regards to the debate, it bored me. I didn't feel either Biden or Palin answered questions directly enough or thoroughly. If people want to talk about winning the debate, blah blah blah, just look at the poll numbers. The facts are in the numbers... if Obama campaign gained more points I would call that a loss for the McCain campaign, correct? Or are we still going for opinions and not facts?
