Time To Stop The Bickering

Today is a day that never should have happened.

The U.S. Economy is facing the worst crisis since The Great Depression.  We will not get into the reasons why (that is another entry for another day).  But we need a stimulus to slow it down.

The U.S. House of Representatives could have gone a great way toward that today, but they failed when the failed to approve a $700 Billion Bailout Package.  Because of this, the U.S. Stock Market lost 7% of its value today.  As of this writing, Asian markets are falling, and we would expect the U.S. Market to fall again tomorrow -- probably under 10,000 for the first time in years.

It is time for the partisan bickering to stop.  The Shadow calls for all members of Congress to work together to try to bring confidence into the U.S. Economy  We cannot afford too much more of a delay.

This is not a Democratic or Republican issue.  This is an American issue.  So fix it!!

The weed of crime bears bitter fruit.  And so does every day that we do not have a solution to this problem.

Good night and good luck.
