EU SUMMIT Austria's Schuessel says dollar fall means 'no joy' for euro zone BRUSSELS (AFX) - Austrian chancellor Wolfgang Schuessel said euro zone exporters have had "no joy" with the fall of the dollar against their single currency

"That is the real problem," he said at the end of a two-day summit here.
"The problem is more on the side of the Americans who of course have an interest in keeping the dollar low," Schuessel said

Revolving Credit
Check out the jump in revolving credit
Look at the pattern in revolving vs non-revolving credit as well.
It seems to me that refis are used to pay back credit cards then the debt is racked right back up.
Is that what is happening?

Palast argues that if Ohio's discarded ballots were counted, Kerry would have won the state. Today, the Cleveland Plain Dealer reports there are a total of 247,672 votes not counted in Ohio, if you add the 92,672 discarded votes plus the 155,000 provisional ballots. So far there's no indication that Palast's hypothesis will be tested because only the provisional ballots are being counted.
