True, but if the point is lost given the trivial amount of tax cuts relative to the size of the spending bill I do contradict myself.

Historically, "cheerleading", I often like to use Churchill as an example, has been the reason people have done extraordinary things. Again, we will simply disagree on this point.

No. Like I wrote previously when it comes to my money I am not partisan at all. If a Democrat helps me make a shit load of money, I could careless about his politics.
I presented my theory on why I lost so much money since June, 2008. I clearly made an error in judgment and I think I know what that error was. If others think the decline in the market since June is Bush's fault or the fault of Republicans, all I can do is ask - when is change going to be responsible for anything? Let me know when it is safe to dig up my money and put it in a bank, real estate, or Wall St.
