Correction, it WAS the intelligence community, until Bush sanctioned a hack political group that bypassed the intelligence community for the express purpose of disseminating unreliable information.
You cannot have it both ways.
 
I am going to make a bold prediction: If Obama is re-elected, 4 years from now we would not be able to talk about what to do in this country, because we'd be destroyed, and living in some kind of one world government.

I'll bet you ten thousand dollars that won't be the case.

See - two can play this game champ.
 
And that statement tell me all I need to know.

:lamo as if the dollar is suddenly devalued all because of Obama. Really?

Don't tell j-mac that the value of the dollar has been rising for the last year and a half, or that it's presently at about the level that it was in October of '07. :lol:
 
Yes, but who's demand is the question....Europe is crumbling under the very same policies you advocate we just ignore, and step on the gas to get to....What kind of foolishness is that?

Europe is not a monolithic entitty. The two largest economies in Europe -- Germany and France -- are doing just fine. England and Ireland, OTOH, are suffering as a result of having gone too far to fast into austerity.

Pardon me if I am wrong, but didn't Europe all hitch their choo-choo's together sometime ago? What you are saying here is like saying that the US isn't a monolithic entity because ND is doing better than CA.....

You are partly right and partly wrong. The EU is not the same thing as the USA. The member states are still largely independent.

Which is entirely true, btw. The recession is not affecting all states equally.

The EU is a monetary union. Part of their issue stems from the fact that nations with shortfalls in aggregate demand cannot implement monetary policy that is necessary to induce investment.
 
Yes, they are doing fine, except insofar as they are obviously being dragged down by the weaker Eurozone states.

ok, then you won't have any problem defining "doing fine?" Germany and France are having trouble keeping up with their entitlement programs and trying to undo them. Guess that is doing fine in your world?

There are many states in this country having no problem inducing investments with N. Dakota and TX being two
