   I forged ahead and jumped the *gun* for Thanksgiving last night and made puff pastry cherry pie turnovers. DELICIOUS!

   Handcuff me if you must, but it was good, especially with the Very Vanilla ice cream on top of those piping hot turnovers. Resist we much didn’t.

    Well, I’d agree with that in the sense that the Republicans ruined the economy by not stopping the Democrats from ruining the economy.

    And, they do deny the obvious, which is that you shouldn’t compromise with ‘wrong’.

    Al Sharpton claims:

    That’s what happens when I look at the GOP. They talk about the economy’s bad, and “We didn’t do it! We were the ones fightin!”

    But they got the blueberry all over their face. They were the ones eatin the pie!

    The economy is bad in large part because of:
    – the Democrat deficits since January 2007,
    – the Fannie-Freddie contagion, and
    – the utter disrespect for the rule of law by DemonRats.

    As to Fannie-Freddie, it’s easy enough to see
    who was fighting the corruption and
    who has “blueberry all over their face”…

    How did Congress recognize Thanksgiving in 1777?

    This is the text of the Continental Congress November 1, 1777 national Thanksgiving Day Proclamation, as printed in the Journals of Congress.

    Forasmuch as it is the indispensable duty of all men to adore the superintending providence of Almighty God; to acknowledge with gratitude their obligation to him for benefits received, and to implore such farther blessings as they stand in need of; and it having pleased him in his abundant mercy not only to continue to us the innumerable bounties of his common providence, but also smile upon us in the prosecution of a just and necessary war, for the defense and establishment of our unalienable rights and liberties; particularly in that he hath been pleased in so great a measure to prosper the means used for the support of our troops and to crown our arms with most signal success:

    It is therefore recommended to the legislative or executive powers of these United States, to set apart Thursday, the 18th day of December next, for solemn thanksgiving and praise; that with one heart and one voice the good people may express the grateful feelings of their hearts, and consecrate themselves to the service of their divine benefactor; and that together with their sincere acknowledgments and offerings, they may join the penitent confession of their manifold sins, whereby they had forfeited every favor, and their humble and earnest supplication that it may please God, through the merits of Jesus Christ, mercifully to forgive and blot them out of remembrance; that it may please him graciously to afford his blessings on the governments of these states respectively, and prosper the public council of the whole; to inspire our commanders both by land and sea, and all under them, with that wisdom and fortitude which may render them fit instruments, under the providence of Almighty God, to secure for these United States the greatest of all blessings, independence and peace; that it may please him to prosper the trade and manufactures of the people and the labor of the husbandman, that our land may yield its increase; to take schools and seminaries of education, so necessary for cultivating the principles of true liberty, virtue and piety, under his nurturing hand, and to prosper the means of religion for the promotion and enlargement of that kingdom which consisteth in righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Ghost.

    And it is further recommended, that servile labor, and such recreation as, though at other times innocent, may be unbecoming the purpose of this appointment, be omitted on so solemn an occasion.

    Thinking about my Al-Pieda comment, I can’t help but think that maybe there’s a lot of truth there.

    Over the last 50 years or so the Dems have done a masterful job of destroying the economy, yet they have been able to lay it largely on the shoulders of the repubs. I know the repubs aren’t totally blameless, but we know the dems gave us the mess we’re in today and now successfully blame wall street and the repubs.

    Now that the mess is fully involved, many in the general public still think it was the repubs and are ready to let the Dems proscribe a cure. I know people that believe this completely, and are ready for the Dems’ ‘solutions.’.

    Cloward and Piven would be proud.

    We could take a play from the Democrat playbook and point out that because Obama pardoned the turkey’s some poor family will have to go without a Thanksgiving dinner….

    I did see that Obama used the pardoning of the turkeys as a way to mock Congress:

    Declaring “we can’t wait to pardon these turkeys,” President Obama Wednesday gave two birds the traditional presidential reprieve from a sentence to be the centerpiece at a Thanksgiving dinner table.

    Liberal Math.

    Remember your algebra: What you do to one side of the equation, you must do to the other.

    Let’s say x and y both equal 1.
    so:

    x=y
    multiply both sides by x
    x^2 = xy
    Subtract y^2 from both sides
    x^2 – y^2 = xy – y^2
    Factor
    (x+y)(x-y)=y(x-y)
    Divide both sides by (x-y)
    x+y = y
    Since x and y both equal 1 that means
    1 + 1 = 1
    or
    2 = 1

    This is how they computed the “savings” from Obamacare!

    Shocking Video Unearthed Democrats in their own words Covering up the Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac

    If you hadn’t posted it certainly I would have. What says Dems-R–Bogus quite like that little bubble blogger video montage? Barry Ritholtz has recently tried to debunk the contribution of the CRA but he should know better!

    Barry, “markets are made at the margins”. Home ownership percentages going from 68% to not quite 70% was all it took to tank the system. There’s a reason not everyone should own a home.

    http://www.ritholtz.com/blog/2011/11/charts-facts-economic-crisis/

    Of course exhonerating Dem’s, disparaging Republicans and patting himself on the back in one fell swoop. Greasing the move-up market ( can you say phantom demand? ) was easily one of the biggest contributors to the bust. But it doesn’t fit their narrative.

    To wit, you can have a $700k home in Compton, yeah, Compton, borrow against it, buy 10 spec homes in Phoenix, Vegas wherever, then let those go back to the bank and sound the hasty retreat to your primary home in Sacramento, wherever.
