Ok here we go again

I really must apologize for my ranting on other issues that have nothing to do with the title or intent of my blogs. As you, all are aware; we are living in extraordinary times, with extraordinary events happening at the speed of light. I find myself needing to comment. Especially considering the fact that this is an election year, and it seems as if it has been going on for three or four years. Soon November 04 2008 will come and go. Not soon enough for many of us, it seems it can never come too soon. Anyway, I ask for a little latitude, as my rantings seem to be non-blog related. I feel sometimes I just have to comment on my opinions on the current happenings that we all find ourselves in. Please accept my sincerest apologies and feel free too to comment on any of my postings. Bear with me this election year will be over soon. Hopefully too the financial crisis everyone is yakking about.

Just like the Iraq war, it seems this “crisis” is being sold to us at the speed of light. And no one in any form of elected capacity seems to fully understand the implications. They all seem to think that because of the mortgage meltdowns and foreclosures, we will soon be plunged into a deep financial depression. Now that is depressing. Soup lines come to mind. So too do infrastructure style projects. I.e. roads, bridges, dams etc. Anyway, let us all not be too hasty in our decision as to this bail out. A little common sense and investigation of the facts seem to be in order, before we find ourselves in another quagmire similar to the conflicts in the Middle East.

Like you, I pay my bills on time including my mortgage. I am one of the lucky ones who do not need to be foreclosed on at this point. What is in it for me? I thank you for all of your indulgence.
