“He’s so clearly a neglected 13-year-old that there’s something really kind of heartbreaking about him,” McKay said, calling him “a good-time Charlie” who was “just used his whole life to front questionable business endeavors, and in a way that’s what his presidency was."
President
Obama today signed his trillion dollar economic stimulus bill into law. The

Lisa, I hope you are doing well. I really do. W/O you and your website I'd be lost. I don't even want to think about it!!!!!!!! I hope Obama's new program will help you and others. Fingers crossed as you always say. $10 in the mail for you and every month from now on. I depend on you, now you can depend on me. Love, Jenny from Idaho
Thank you so much, Jenny. Every dollar helps!! I have about enough dinero left for a little over a month. So your support helps me a lot.
It is scary watching this economy tank.
I sure hope Obama's plan can stop this financial domino effect.
The first bank bailout helped the banks not the people. I was just turned down for an FHA loan, tried to get another loan and was turned down for that one until the IRS could provide them with my 2008 return, which I was told would take two to three months. My copy of my 2008 return wasn't good enough. What BS.
Yeah, fingers crossed because some days I just sit down and cry, just like many other people are doing across this nation. It is a feeling of helplessness. I'm luckier than most though, at least I have this website to make me laugh and people like yourself to give me hope.
Thank you, Jenny.
