Median Home prices are falling,  foreclosures are rising,  insurance rates are going up (while coverage is declining),  grocery prices are rising, livestock feed prices are going up, existing taxes are going up, tax credits are being axed, new fees are being added to many services, wages are static, declining or not keeping up with inflation, our government officials are increasingly corrupt (seriously, folks – how can BO keep a straight face when he appoints a tax cheat to run the treasury dept.?), and EVERYTHING IS JUST FINE, IT’S ALL BUSH’S FAULT AND THERE IS NOTHING TO SEE HERE, MOVE ALONG.

I swear, if I see that unicorn, I am going to shoot the S.O.B. and barbecue him.

Unicorn, the other white meat.
