<<Greenspan also said that while observers in 2010 "may conceivably" conclude that today's U.S. economy "was experiencing a once-in-a-century acceleration of innovation," they "might well conclude that a good deal of what we are currently experiencing was just one of the many euphoric speculative bubbles that have dotted human history." >> Did anyone else note that while AG was giving the market these warnings, Clinton was on the air with investment TV 3 times? He spoke long and hard about the market being up greatly on the back of 0 inflation. It has become clear to me, Clinton's goal was to negate any effect of the dinner speech. Clinton wants the speculative buble in place currently, AG would like it to end well. Last year the NASDAQ was higher by 85%. Was the bottom line (in the black only please) 85% better than the prior year? NO! This shows the bubble. Seems here is the proof AG &Clinton are at odds(at least somewhat),& AG is working in the nation's better interest, while Clinton is working for something else again.

OT(freedom of what?) Monday January 17, 12:01 AM FCC Says Bye Bye to Jerry Falwell, Pat Robertson, Robert Shuller as Clinton Proclaims 'Religious Freedom' In case you missed it, yesterday was officially proclaimed "Religious Freedom Day" by President Clinton. Ironically, Clinton made his proclamation the very same week his FCC has issued several new regulations that will likely spell doom for religious broadcasters. The administration claims that the president is "committed to safeguarding freedom of religion at home and promoting it around the globe." The president explained why in his proclamation: "Americans draw great strength from the free exercise of religion and from the diverse communities of faith that flourish in our Nation because of it. Our churches, mosques, synagogues, meetinghouses, and other places of worship bring us together, support our families, nourish our hearts and minds, and sustain our deepest values. Our religious beliefs give direction to our lives and provide moral guidance in the daily decisions we make." Clinton also notes the need for his proclamation: "Freedom of religion, however, still has enemies." He apparently knows better than most. This past week, without consulting Congress, the FCC announced that non-commercial TV broadcasters have to re-configure their programming so that at least 50 percent of all air time is devoted to "educational" or "cultural" programs. Fair enough until you read the fine print. The FCC ruled that "programming primarily devoted to religious education, proselytizing or statements of personally held religious views and beliefs would not qualify as educational or cultural programming." Broadcast religious services -- a must for the homebound elderly and handicapped -- have also been ruled (cont). newsmax.com
