So the World is still reeling from the Financial Collapse on Wallstreet, this is a Global Crisis the first fallout being leveled by Lehman Brothers.The rest of the markets have been impacted from Asia to Russia and the juggling and manuevering has begun. But we knew the World would be effected that was to be expected, how much is another story.
We are merely Spectators watching this horrendous Circus. I keep waiting for Someone to Send in the Clowns, but Bush remains encapsulated at the Whitehouse ensconced like a groundhog in a January Snowstorm. I am sure there are Jack Daniels Bottles heaved about....He did have time earlier in the week to entertain Dignataries from Ghana.Paulson and Bernanke have been left to fend through this Melee on their own. It does amaze me that this Crisis that is reminding people of the 1930[s has rendered this Whitehouse So Silent.
Commentators are using words like "Carnage", "Crisis" and looking pale and grim as they attempt to report numbers and still not vomit.All Markets have responded with some sort of volatility, there are no safe havens from this crisis, except maybe some distant village that only trades in fish and beads.Last Night the CNBC HigherUps decided that we are not to watch the Asian Markets during the Night, they had some other flimsy shows on instead. I watched Bloomberg Livestream and BBC and learned that the markets are reeling, which is effecting the markets more Lehman being allowed to go under or the Strange Bailout of AIG ?The Repercussions are indesputable. Some Solutions are being pounded interglobally whether this is a desperate Fast Fix or a True Bandaid time will tell.
Meanwhile on another Front the Truth about Texas is festering forward, about the Failure of FEMA on many levels and the amount of devastation is staggering.
1.9 are still without power, some water is returning to the 4 million customers that need it, and Red Cross is doing what needs to be done as the FEMA frustation boils.It will bear watching over the next two weeks as these folks grapple with the enormity of what they are facing.
New Polls are coming out that show the OBAMA shift is happening as McInsane and Mooselini continue to make more and more Mythic Blunders. I will continue to update during the Day below and in an Open Comment Thread as we watch History Unfold. Be good to each other, gentle.now....Our Humanity is in Our Own Hands.

7:30PM UDPATE:::
I have updated this post now 4 times and the Update keeps vanishing, I have no idea why....BUT here is your update-
Bush did indeed stagger out to the podium and give a 2:30 Minute petulent speech, something was uttered to the effect that we are experiencing a "adjustment", I have no idea what that means...sounds pretty lame.
Meanwhile Mooselini and McInsane, has had 24 hours of goofs and gaffes, Now Sarah is now calling the Ticket " Palin-McCain", maybe it was just a narcisstic slip up......Either way worth seeing , watch and laugh.
