My Democrat Compatriots Were Right

They told me if I voted for McCain, the nation's hope would deteriorate, and sure enough there has been a 20 point drop in the Consumer Confidence Index since the election, reaching a lower point than any time in the last 30 years.
They told me if I voted for McCain, the US would become more deeply embroiled in the Middle East, and now, tens of thousands of additional troops are scheduled to be deployed into Afghanistan.
They told me if I voted for McCain, that the economy would get worse and sure enough unemployment is at 10%.
They told me if I voted for McCain, we would see more "crooks" in high ranking positions in Federal government and sure enough, several recent cabinet nominees and Senate appointments reveal resumes of scandal, bribery, racist beliefs, Socialism and tax fraud.
They told me if I voted for McCain, we would see more "pork at the trough" in the Federal government and sure enough, 17,500 "Pork Bills" have showed up in Congress since January 2009.
I was also told by my Democrat friends that if I voted for McCain, we would see more deficit spending in Washington D.C. and sure enough, Obama has spent more than all other Presidents together - in the entire history of the good ole USA!!
Well, I voted for McCain in November and my Democrat friends were right...all of their predictions have come true! Damn I hate it when that happens. Why then has the stock market breeched the 10,000 mark again?! Ever heard of inverse relationships? My compatriots seem to have missed class that day ;-) Bless their little pea-pickin’ hearts.
