'Thanks for the downgrade. You should all be fired' banner flies over lower Manhattan
"THANKS FOR THE DOWNGRADE. YOU SHOULD ALL BE FIRED."
http://resources1.news.com.au/images/2011/08/10/1226112/279777-banner-manhattan-plane.jpg
A plane flies a banner over lower Manhattan reading "Thanks for the downgrade. You should all be fired".
That's the message that greeted anyone looking out an office window at the right time in Lower Manhattan, New York overnight.
The brief but stinging rebuke trailed behind a plane flown by a woman fed up with Wall St and politicians after the US credit rating was downgraded over the weekend.
The lowering of the US's credit rating by ratings agency Standard and Poor sparked global financial panic and fears of a second recession in both the US and Europe.
The pilot of the cheeky plane is reportedly St. Louis, Missouri woman Lucy Nobbe, a vice president at private equities and investment firm Wedbush Morgan Securities.
Ms Nobbe told the Observer she wanted to fly the sign over Washington D.C but found out it was forbidden in the city's restricted airspace.
"So I chose Wall Street instead, but didn’t specifically intend it to fly over S&P. I’m just a mother from St. Louis who feels the only reason we got downgraded was people in politics."
There was early speculation the plane was targeting the offices of Standard & Poor, but she and a friend who also spoke to the Observer said that wasn't the case.
“She’s not mad at S & P," the anonymous friend said.
"She’s mad at Washington D.C. She called me up to have me talk her out of it, and of course, I didn’t.
“Because I think it’s funny.”
Fortune reports such a flight could cost up to US$1500.
The friend noted Ms Nobbe "does not have a lot of discretionary cash as others are saying. She’s a single mother of two. She’s been working and paying taxes since she was 16 years old."
Pictures and reports of the banner were widely tweeted by bemused workers.

Bachman is yet another of these ''christian zionists'' so I don't know why anyone would even consider her.
Oh and the system is the problem, not the puppet they use as a figureheand, so even if Ron Paul did intend to fix things, he couldn't.
If he got too successful, he might end up in Dallas.

Lets be specific...the Tea Party downgrade. These freaks made up a fake crisis and held not just America, but the world hostage. They are terrorists loyal to ALEC, Grover Norquist and the Koch Brothers who are leading angry, propagandized Americans straight down the road to fascism.
So lets be clear who caused this downgrade in the first place - although Obama and the Democrats should NEVER have negotiated with terrorists and could have used the 14th amendment to raise the debt ceiling without their cooperation, but didn't so they're not entirely without blame either.

Are you sure you are in the right place?
You continue to post this left wing rubbish, when the majority of us here realise THE WHOLE POLITICAL SYSTEM is the problem.
Not left.
Not right.
Not just left of centre before becoming just centre of right.
THE WHOLE DAMN KAHUNA.

btw...what a pathetic thread...for what used to be a very enlightened community, it's degraded into a bunch of haters, racists and bigots. Or should I say it's been downgraded with people stuck in a negative energetic state.
You guys need to step back and take a look at yourselves and all the right wing hate your spewing - you think that's the answer to our problems? Your only part of the problem...
Now I remember why I stopped spending so much time at PA...this BS

I think I was a bit harsh on her here and the other thread.
Leaving won't help her or us, I think we should try to help each other over these hurdles.
Sorry if I was harsh to you Annette. I too am not perfect and get frustrated with peoples posts.
My intent wasn't to attack you, it was to bring a few points to your attention.
I probably failed, but that is life.

Get rid of the wings IMO. That's a big part of the problem. They are both useless. They are there for show and divisive tactics. I don't see the racism, bigotry or hate in this thread. I just found your proclamation there is "right wing hate" is basically just showing you are stuck in a matrix of mind designed for you...
And try not judging like a few thousand people in like 4 posts. Thanks.

I apologize for over reacting, it upsets me to see so much hate on these threads coming from a community of people who are supposed to be enlightened. One thread in particular making remarks about the "black president" and then one denigrating women who run for president. Granted Bachman is loony tunes, but it has nothing to do with being a woman...anyone remember George Bush?
In addition for people who claim to be above politics this smacks of information coming from the right wing propaganda machine, which has it's roots in the neo-conservative nazi movement. The fascists who have taken over our government which is coming mostly from the right wing....and those on the left who are phony's.
IMO bashing Obama and everyone else in politics is all sourced from hate which has/had no place in PA when I joined back in 2009. I have a blog which has kept me busy and when I come back here and see this kind of energy and how PA has changed, it's disturbing. I apologize if I came across too harsh.
Appears we all need a little work on "Being the change"

What you perceive as hate is drummed into you by ''the left'' and it isn't that at all.
Oh and combining the words ''nazi'' and ''fascist'' shows that you don't know that topic too well, they are different.

I don't have one.
I will have a site soon, I am working on it.
I am getting over a chest infection and still have a bit in the lungs, so I can't record the audios yet.
Don't panic, I will let everyone know when it is ready.
Thanks for asking too, kiwinugget.

So, as president, will her migraines or pms interfere with the job? Do we really need a barbie doll at this time while things are so screwed up? Everything is going to hell, so if she doesn't turn it around, she'll get blamed for it all. And then people will say that because she's a woman is why she couldn't do the job.... For that matter ANYBODY will have that happen to them.... I don't envy the next president his/her job.... Anybody still for Obama? As I understand it, the smearing campaign has begun. That's the tactic he's going to use....
Even so, I'd never vote for that one....
Ron Paul - all the way!

Much more apt.
