>>when I misspelled loosened If you were quoting accurately you would not be misspelling. However, you were changing quotes and making it up. >>you made a big deal out of it posting that it was sick but them misspelled sick as sic. So before you start correcting my spelling don't you think you should learn how to spell four letter words?? "Sic" does not mean "sick" - although you may be into a self-revelation there. "Sic" means that I intentionally reproduced your errors as you had written them: Main Entry: sic Pronunciation: 'sik, 'sEk Function: adverb Etymology: Latin, so, thus -- more at SO Date: circa 1859 : intentionally so written -- used after a printed word or passage to indicate that it is intended exactly as printed or to indicate that it exactly reproduces an original <said he seed [sic]g it all> >>What are you talking about? As Arsenal1 has stated the FED does not lower taxes. So get on board. Neither does Bush appoint Senators, nor congressmen nor governors. Governors are elected by each state. Please don't call my spelling sic. I understand your type and think you may just be trying to provoke me into indulging in name calling. With so many totally inane post, I realize it becomes difficult to understand when everything is not as it appears to be. If I could figure that mess out I might have reason to question my sanity.

Am I correct in assuming you are joking? In case anyone is confused: Sic--- Latin for "thus", used to indicate the accuracy of a quotation when there is a mistake in the body of the quote; Governors--- In the Fed, the board is composed of governors, a term of honor in banking; "Lower taxes"--- The previous discussion was on Greenspan's views on topics like lowering taxes. The importance of the prospective change in the composition of the Fed board is to ensure that there is a compatibility of monetary and fiscal policy.
