A song by the Astroturf featuring David Caplan
Back in March we didn't know what was to come the Bear stearns collapse had already come and gone We finally thought that we'd start to gain some ground But subprime losses just kept being written down
Over the summer months commodity prices all went up the cost of oil hit 150 bucks and everyone talked about their stagflation fears and just like that it all those worries dissapeeared
chorus: We had the lehman bust We lost all our trust In the systems of our own demise disguised We had all our fears slowly reappear In the systems of our own demise disguised
banks collapsed and a chaotic mess ensued And the libor spread was becoming front page news Aig was getting bailed out by the fed and into tbills investors promptly fled
the government took control of fannie mae and freddie mac And chinas rapid rate of growth was scaling back The threat of hurricans and russia going to war And the thought that markets would never find a floor
chorus: We had the lehman bust We lost all our trust In the systems of our own demise disguised We had all our fears slowly reappear In the systems of our own demise disguised
John McCains strengths weren't those that mattered most And his running mate was more a running joke So barack came in and easily took the crown But the markets shrugged and still came tumbling down
Paulson tried his best to be a hero And ben bernanke cut the rate to almost zero And congress passed a 700 billion dollar bill but no one really has a plan for it still
chorus: We had the lehman bust We lost all our trust In the systems of our own demise disguised We had all our fears slowly reappear In the systems of our own demise disguised
Solo
All the bubbles burst and deflation took the prize And madoffs schemes were exposed for their lies The dollar climbed despite all our growing debt but nothing happening really ever made much sense
chorus: We had the lehman bust We lost all our trust In the systems of our own demise disguised We had all our fears slowly reappear In the systems of our own demise disguised

Great, but your plans are failing and costing us 3 times more than Bush's crap and even the liberals are projecting that the deficit because of obama's spending with grow to 10 Trillion ! Easily the worst administration in my lifetime.
he hasnt even been in office one year and those plans have been in effect even less time. I cant understand how an unbiased person could say that he is the worst president with so little to even to judge on. I think you are forgetting the atrocious economy and foreign affair situation that was inherited. ....and that the last president started an unecessary war in Iraq costing us billions of dollars and thousands of good lives.
LOL... worst administration of your lifetime eh? so you were born this february? i wish they'd euthanize people like you -- then there would be more resources for people with half a brain that contribute.
Sure, I bet you would like to get rid of the critical thinkers, those who object to the Democrat's soaring deficit. As for my praxis with administrations, I go back to Carter. You will be quite astute to notice even that ranks above your precious Obama, who is failing.
those are not intelligent points.... because everyone knows the stock market is not an indicator of anything except human stupidity....when it was through the roof, our economic structures were disastrous and ready to implode and those structures are still disastrous.
