'' In other words, the hopes that Barack Obama will fix the economy started the day higher. So "investors" were hopeful of good things. Then the news came that the Bush'McCain recession is continuing in full swing, and therefore, the market dropped. http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?p...efer=worldwide ``The report by ADP Employer Services showed companies cut 157,000 jobs in October, the most since November 2002 when the U.S. was emerging from a recession. The Institute for Supply Management said service industries in the U.S., which make up 90 percent of the economy, contracted by the most on record. '' So, again, the market is realizing the depths of this Republican recession. Q: What happens when you elect thieves and morons to have unfettered access to the levers of power? A: Investors see the crapstorm coming at them. I think that we are in the middle of the crapstorm already. Pray for the US economy - because only God can help save it from the stupid and corrupt politicians. Something we had to learn the hard way in the last 8 years. I think that it is dangerous to hamper your understanding of reality by listening to propaganda news sources like FOX news. For example, it may make you think that the end of the world is coming because Obama is elected. That may make you avoid buying stocks, for example. In fact, now is a good time to buy them and a reasonably conservative estimate would expect approximately 10% returns (with dividends reinvested) in the coming decade. Stocks are quite cheap now. i And for our international friends, are y'all starting to see that when the USA catches a cold, the rest of the world sneezes?

BTW, I am a retired USAF MSgt and my son is in the US Army. Guess what? W. didn't have **** to do with the economic mess. You wish! Truth is you and your buddies that voted in Bush and his republican congress are very much to blame for the mess we're in right now. You make it sound like it doesn't matter who gets elected, that it's all the same. Well, it's not, as you will find out soon. Obama will be very different from what just passed. Take stem cell research for one thing. Under Bush it was prevented from getting any federal help at all because of his religious ideas. Now Obama will reverse that right off the bat. If you had not elected Bush we would not be in the mess we're in. We didn't get here by chance. It was due to the choices the Bush administration made just like the ones Obama makes will determine whether it gets fixed or it gets worse. But since Bush was such a stinking president, and you thought would be great, we're in all this trouble. Who gets put in office matters. You just don't have the guts to own up to having been part of the FUBAR of all time. Sure Bush and his administration are to blame but so are you and your son and all the rest of the foolish Americans who though he'd be great and voted him in office. You're call on Bush was like the Red Sox trading Babe Ruth to NY. Now it is time to take responsibility for your screw up. Without people like you none of this stuff would have happened. So own it. You are to blame. BTW, I voted against Bush, twice. I could see he was an incompetent boob right from the start. Why couldn't you? Hawke |

They are just as much to blame for what happened there as he was. They didn't choose wisely. Choosing Bush was not wise either. But as for who's responsible for the current mess, it the congress had a republican majority from 1995 until 2007, and they had the White House for the last eight years, how could it NOT be their fault? Because if it's not their fault for this then if Obama and the Democratic majority in congress bring about disaster that won't be their fault either. I know you will blame them if they get it wrong too. Bottom line is that if you have all the power you take all the blame or all the glory. In this case the republicans get the blame because there is no glory. Saying it was anyone else's fault is just denial. Hawke |

Just look at all the surplus ammo in 8X57, 7.62X54R, and plenty of other calibers that has been sitting around for decades going bad because nobody wants it. I'm sure that there are plenty of survivalists who have stockpiled ammo for years and it'll never be used. In life anything that you never use becomes something you shouldn't have wasted money on. I used to think that it would be a good idea to get ready for the big one and wanted to be prepared to survive. Now it's clear that I'll be dead from aging way before I need the survival gear set aside for the end of the world as we know it. All you need is that ammo you will actually use. If you have more than that you wasted your money. Hawke |

"Hawke" wrote in message ... I agree with you that in the end it's the fault of the people who vote rotten people into office that bear the burden of responsibility when things go bad. Take the German people. They chose Hitler. They are just as much to blame for what happened there as he was. They didn't choose wisely. Choosing Bush was not wise either. But as for who's responsible for the current mess, it the congress had a republican majority from 1995 until 2007, and they had the White House for the last eight years, how could it NOT be their fault? Because if it's not their fault for this then if Obama and the Democratic majority in congress bring about disaster that won't be their fault either. I know you will blame them if they get it wrong too. They will blame them if they get it right also. Blame is the only game they understand. |

No failures to fire, groups were about 1" bigger than those fired with WCC 1945 as a test group, and smelled a bit more acidic than other ammo from the same period Ive fired. But then, it was found in a California attic...so its not surprising, due to the heat.
