  1. That's not an unfair statement. We are all engines of karma
  2. I found this to be a very interesting read. Not sure of its veracity, but it's the first real definition of neo-conservative that I've seen. Neo-cons never really struck me as appetizing (for the lack of a better phrase), and I find them even less so now. What do others think of this article? I am a conservative, who is registered as an independent, FYI. We are all engines of karma
  3. I have just made www.npr.org my home page. We are all engines of karma
  4. It's generally referred to as a "conflict of interest". We are all engines of karma
  5. Excellent writeup. And very true re: Dodd and Frank. Did you know that Frank's live-in "lover" was actually in a policy making position at FNMA during this time, who was focusing on the "affordable housing initiative"? Since this shit has hit the fan, they've broken up. We are all engines of karma
  6. Yep. Nor did Michelle's thesis ease any of the discomfort I'm feeling. I see Obama as a left wing radical racist. We are all engines of karma
  7. The question should have never been asked. Newt Gingrich, and his rabid Republican colleagues, caused alot of damage to our country. That's a very thoughtful reply. And, I agree with you. We are all engines of karma
  8. Uhm, not yet. Will it become breaking news? Remains to be seen. Especially with the bleeding heart liberals in media. We are all engines of karma
  9. I hear he's a very big, impressive man. Get's on with everybody. Guess Hillary doesn't fully understand what it means to be a woman... We are all engines of karma
  10. I live about two miles from Chappaqua, NY. That's where the "Clintons" live. I drink with alot of cops. I also drink with others that drink with alot of cops. Rumor has it, Bill Clinton has a new girlfriend. Thought yall might like to be one of the firsts to know. We are all engines of karma
  11. Did the aircraft carriers stop working? US govie debt will still be considered "riskless" by everyone who's serious about their money. That hasn't changed, nor will it in our lifetime (...unless there is an aggressive invasion from outer space). We are all engines of karma
  12. How else would you accept their surrender? We are all engines of karma
  13. We're a land of equal opportunity, not equal reward. We are all engines of karma
  14. Ahck! I hate it when that happens! We are all engines of karma
  15. LAO!!! We are all engines of karma
  16. I've worked in the financial area in NYC for 15 years now. I've fortunate to know several spectacularly successful people. They all have certain things in common: Incredible listeners, and absolute straight shooters. They don't lie. They make keep it gray, but they don't lie. We are all engines of karma
  17. Not unless their from Britain... We are all engines of karma
  18. I'm curious to hear yalls plan of action when our aircraft carriers stop working... We are all engines of karma
  19. Bovril and HP sauce. We are all engines of karma
  20. How has this thread turned into a global warming focus? I was hoping to develop contrasts between Obama and McCain, especially wrto economic issues. We are all engines of karma
  21. Nope. But, Congress axed the golden parachutes for FNMA's and FHLMC's CEOs. Likewise, every company that has been "taken over" by the Fed has had their senior executives fired. If necessary, I expect someone could say the firings were "for cause", thus denying them their golden parachutes, also. We are all engines of karma
  22. Yep. Everyone wants to have access to a bank's balance sheet. I expect they'll work out something where the trading side doesn't have bank regulations hanging over them. GAAP leaves lots of wiggle room. We are all engines of karma
