It was previously posted, but I could not find the thread.”Don’t waste your time, Aecetia. Marion is destined to be blind sided like a deer in headlights. And guarantee you she will be the first one “whining” about how someone should have warned her that things were this bad.
That’s what victims do.

partypupParticipant“Partypup, you’re way too pessimistic for me. All I’ve witnessed you do since you came here is whine. Do you ever think positively?”
Marion, that comment only proves that you are so painfully unaware of the difference between pessimism and realism. But given the pedestrian quality of your posts to date, I suppose it is a distinction that I shouldn’t expect you to appreciate. And I doubt you ever studied macroeconomics, so it is not surprising that you should be so blissfully unaware of the approaching train wreck. So what if the Dow has dropped 600 points since Friday and oil is approaching $150/barrel? Such comments are waaaaay too “pessimistic” for Marion, so let’s not even discuss them. Better to move on to “happy” thoughts as the global financial system unravels!
And you think I “whine”? Then you need to re-read your own posts. You have done nothing but whine since you began offering your political “thoughts” on this board. Who hasn’t grown weary of hearing you whine about racism? About the burden of being black? You are the ultimate victim. Talk about the pot calling the kettle black (no pun intended).
And you are also apparently too obtuse to even catch the fact that Portlock was alluding to the thread that YOU started. Portlock thinks YOUR thread is pointless; no reference was made to my “pessimism”. YOU are the one who makes divisive posts, delivers epithets against one candidate (in YOUR own party, no less!) based on her sex, and fawns over the other candidate like a cheerleader at a pep rally. Yes, that’s very helpful for party unity, Marion.
It does not matter to me in the least what you think about my musings about the economy or politics. I’m rarely this rude on a board, but the level of ignorance you exhibit is simply astounding.
Next time, read before you post.

partypupParticipant“It’s obvious the road we are heading down, and obviously it won’t be a quick fix. Those who are educated understand that. Only the uneducated will wake up in May 2009 and be dismayed that the country is still in trouble. So what? Obama is idealistic. As long as he tries his best with all the resources he has to make the changes he talked about, I’ll be satisfied.”
Sadly, Marion, the vast majority of this country is uneducated, and they have NO idea what’s about to hit them. Fewer than half read newspapers on a daily basis, and only ten percent hold passports. These people will be utterly and completely blindsided, primarily due to the propaganda spooned to them by the mainstream media on what is now a daily basis (“We will escape a recession”, “the American economy is fundamentally strong”, and other b.s.) These people don’t think Obama is being “idealistic”; they think he will ACTUALLY deliver what he is promising. They are desperate for an escape.
Do you really think that the average American — making 30K a year, paying $6/gallon for gas, $8 for a carton of eggs, seeing that our troops are still in Iraq a year after Obama takes office and possibly heading to Iran — is going to be satisfied if Obama “tries his best”? I assure you they will not. Human nature will prevail, and expecting a fix and having raised their expectations, they will turn ugly.
You will be alone in your satisfaction, Marion. And that will doom Obama to a one-term presidency. And sadly, he will be the last African-American president this country will ever see.
That’s the reality.
And out of curiosity, other than national health care, what “changes”, specifically, are you expecting from Obama?
