    Does anyone here ever read over what they're about to post onto the site?? Grammar has been going down the shi%%er for the past month. Doesn't take but two seconds to re-read a sentence and realize there should be an "a" instead of an "s." :\

    Perez, shut the fuck up. Stick to celebrity gossip. The last thing the American people need is another fear-mongering media idiot. The economy is cyclical — it's called capitalism. It's not the end of the world. I don't remember you reporting all the awesome economic news for the past 5 years, so don't report the bad news.

    AS GAS PRICES GO UP, THE DOW PLUNGES AND THE HEAT BECOMES AN ISSUE, CRIME IMO WILL BE A HUGE PROBLEM THIS SUMMER. AS MORE PEOPLE ARE OUT ON THE STREERTS TOGETHER, PEOPLE GET DESPERATE AND DO BAD THINGS. I HOPE IM WRONG, BUT CRIME RATES OF ALL FORMS HAVE RISEN, AND I EXPECT THIS TO CONTINUE FOR A LONG TIME COMING.

    Maybe-just maybe-there are some economic geniuses and financial wizards out there that can come together and write a strategic plan on how to get us out of this mess. Washington can't do it, and the average Joe doesn't know enough.

    S.O.S!!! Any brainiacs out there that can help us???!

    Re: Night – yeah genius. it has nothing to do with the fact we went to war to please his papa & line cheney's pockets, when we had absolutely no reason to be there. i'm ashamed to be american at this moment. don't even bother telling me to leave. i would if i could. we've pissed off so many countries in europe, they don't want us there. visas are becoming more & more difficult to obtain, or else i'd denounce my citizenship & go back to where my ancestors came from, in a heartbeat.

    Disasterous unemployment rate? Are you kidding me? Its still low. And if you were to report the entire article as to what the one of the contributing factors for the rate, TEENAGE UNEMPLOYMENT YOU IDIOT. The only gain for employment was for hispanics.

    Perez, I don't come to your website to read how shitty our economy is or how high gas prices are…I just want my celebrity gossip….it's an escape.

    So stop writing about this crap!!

  50. 50

    It's still low though. The Dow didnt drop just because of that. As much as I dont like Bush, can't blame him for it all too.

    Perez- you really need to stop writing about politics or the economy or anything in the intellectual realm. You're really just not that smart and think about things so superficially. Stick to the celebrity stuff- that's what you're good at.

    Don t worry, America. That s what you get when electing Republicans to power who do not have any idea of whats gpoing on economically in the rest of the world!
    The decline of the US Dollar has been going on for years, but, hey, all I read on websites still is: "America is the GREATEST and STRONGEST Economy and Country in the World!"

    Yeah, DREAM ON! And keep on voting republican - it ll ensure the rich ll get richer and the poor ll get poorer in the U.S.! :-)

    Everbody wanted change in '06. They kicked out the republicans with a Dow at 14000, gas was $3.00 and employment was at an all time high. The 'rats want us to pay $5.00 for gas thinking we are stupid enough to blame the republicans. It won't work. The 'rats won't let us drill offshore and Cuba and China are now drilling 20 miles off Florida. Ever wonder who funds the environmentalist groups? The Saudis. Clinton vetoed drilling in Anwar in 1995. We would have had 5 million barrels a day by last year if he hadn't done that.

    What short memories you tweenies have. Bush inherited a recession 8 years ago. Was it Clinton's fault? No. The economy has peaks and valleys depending on many factors that are out of anyones control. The housing market also waxes and wanes. A first time home buyer has never had it better right now. And, don't bitch about gas prices. Pressure the politicians to make us independent of Middle Eastern Oil. Anyone who stands up and makes this their goal will have my vote.

    If repeating what was on all the major news sites, news services, and news channels is what reporting is, then yes, you did report something Mario. Otherwise, not so much.

    Re: Buster – Thank you!! Congress is occupied mainly by democrats, you idiots. George Bush is not the the best president this county has had. But he is definitely NOT the worst. He has done what he could to better this country, but he has also had to clean up the mess Bill Clinton created! Do some research. The mess we are in right now can be traced back to one particular group, the liberal democrats.

    Keep the ego in check, Perez–and take a reality check, too, why you're at it. You don't "report" anything. You are nothing but a gossip. And generally, most of what you "write" or gossip about is second hand. More and more (seems to average about 8 times out of 10), what you say was already said by someone else.
