LOL, P. They actually do. And they've a lot of extremely ... ... singularly smart, regular contributors over there regarding investing ... I'm sure you're familiar with many as I am from following the bubble up and down from their 'bearish' perspective. Many were dead-on right in early 2000. I'm 'stealing' this one, as well, to bring here by 'JHP' -- contains no link for the nitpickers -g- Message 16568282 'How to Lose a War' ----->snip: <<This is an administration that will let its special interests — particularly its high-rolling campaign contributors and its noisiest theocrats of the right — have veto power over public safety, public health and economic prudence in war, it turns out, no less than in peacetime. When anthrax struck, the administration's first impulse was not to secure as much Cipro as speedily as possible to protect Americans, but to protect the right of pharmaceutical companies to profiteer. The White House's faith in tax cuts as a panacea for all national ills has led to such absurdities as this week's House "stimulus" package showering $254 million on Enron, the reeling Houston energy company (now under S.E.C. investigation) that has served as a Bush campaign cash machine. >> Yep, they're all 'nice guys.' Very 'nice,' 'Christian,' good ole boys. Who are so very concerned about the health and welfare of 'the American people.' The general citizenry. They're not doing a great deal to upgrade/overturn the decades-old belief that Republicans represent the rich. IMHO. -g- bia
