Bullshit. Personal savings accounts are covered by FDIC insurance. And a savings account is YOUR money. You aren't being reimbursed for an investment loss. Not the same thing AT ALL.
Personal savings.. laughable... and the corporate accounts which run into millions .. for each account holder...which pays for salaries and vendors ... you think 200K or 400K is going to cover that....
guess again! besides there wasnt enought coverage to save even the individual accounts.
Yes, I'm a bit surprised that you didn't know that.
CA prices dropped by 30-40% mid 90s.. from 89s peak.
No matter.. it was smaller.. but it still was a correction denied by many afterwards.

2. There is absolutely nothing in the evil USA PATRIOT Act that would have prevented 9/11.
And yet even the Obama administration and democrats NOW acknowledges it has ...
Any Democrat who thinks the Patriot Act or the NDA are good should be shot as traitors trying to overthrow our republic.
1. They were members of Al Qaeda, not the KKK
You might check about inbreeding being very common in arab - middle east.
Do you really want to debate which group of xenophobic, gay-bashing, scientifically illiterate, religious, conservative bigots have more sex with their siblings?
The great irony is that the Christian right and the Islamic extremists have more in common with each other than either has with rational people.

and you are waiting to have Dems and Obama overturn it anytime now.. right ?

inbreeding in Middle East per scientific studies is fact.. but you label it as bigoted, no matter when you were free to bash Christians as being inbred in the USA without any facts to back it up.
In fairness to TW, LA did have a 'lost decade'. Case Shiller Index peaked at 100.24 in June, 1990. It didn't hit bottom until March 1996 (73.07). For these metro indexes, the core usually holds up better than the outlying regions.

Yep, that's a drop of 27%, not quite the " 40% in the early 1990s," says Stuart Gabriel, a University of Southern California finance professor and the director of USC's Lusk Center for Real Estate. but who knows, he may have bee looking at a somewhat different data set.

Across the Arab world today an average of 45 percent of married couples are related, according to Dr. Nadia Sakati, a pediatrician and senior consultant for the genetics research center at King Faisal Specialist Hospital in Riyadh.
In some parts of Saudi Arabia, particularly in the south, where Mrs. Hefthi was raised, the rate of marriage among blood relatives ranges from 55 to 70 percent, among the highest rates in the world, according to the Saudi government.

Non sequitur, and a strawman.
You wrote, and I quote:
Your bank account was bailed out.. more accurately stated, account holders be they individuals, small to large business, government agencies, and all others like educational entities and church (non profits) were made whole.
YOU are the one who equated individual banks accounts with holdings of corporations and the government. I was the one who said those are not the same thing. You don't seem to ever respond to what I write; you just make up some fictional position that you'd rather argue with.
Serious question: Do you have ADD?

This is a cool composite of last presidential election. It shows clearly that Mr Bain got beat by getting hammered in the latino vote, asian vote, losing the vote for age 45 and under, and just as importantly, losing the vote of the "moderates." Speaking of moderates, I would argue it was not so much Mr Bain himself, but the side effect of tea party desease that affected the reps. And yet they feel that they were not conservate enough even though moderates make up 41% of the electorate which outnumbers liberals (25%) and conservatives (35%) and Mr Bain did not have any trouble with the cons as he carried the cons by a stong 65% margin.
