Bring Them Home Now! veteransforpeace.org <<...As military veterans and families, we understand that hardship is sometimes part of the job. But there has to be an honest and compelling reason to impose these hardships and risks on our troops, our families, and our communities. The reasons given for the occupation of Iraq does not rise to this standard. Without just cause for war, we say bring the troops home now! Not one more troop killed in action. Not one more troop wounded in action. Not one more troop psychologically damaged by the act of terrifying, humiliating, injuring or killing innocent people. Not one more troop spending one more day ingesting depleted uranium. Not one more troop separated from spouse and children. This is the only way to truly support these troops, and the families who are just as much part of the military as they are. Bush says "Bring 'em on." We say "BRING THEM HOME NOW!...>>

Scott, there is approximately 2 billion ounces of silver byproduct to be dumped on the market from many South American gold mines (Veladero, Pascua Lama, etc...). Moreover, China is a very active seller around $5. The second quarter is OVER. The US economy is a little over a month into its THIRD quarter. And, of course, the financial event blotting out all others in THIS quarter is the crash dive of US debt markets and the HUGE attendant rise in yields. Economic think tanks, trained economists, market analysts, the Fed, the Treasury, the Bush Administration and President Bush himself are one and all making a heroic effort to pretend that this is not actually happening at all. After all, the good things on which they are basing their prediction of an economic rebound happened in the second quarter, BEFORE US debt markets cratered.
