Croseus, one has to listen to Cox, understanding that he embraces conservative ideology. He is right about one thing, hedging gains right now would make sense to me. Other than that, he was rambling I thought; and as usual took a swipe at liberals as he always manages to stick in at least once in each broadcast. This time he vilified Clinton and last time it was Lou Dobbs. Like bush is a much greater president than clinton was-good grief. One has to ask themselves, if Cox does not understand the difference between right and left, Bush and Clinton, what else does he not understand? You will seldom, if ever (that I can remember) hear Cox chastise bush's indefensible economic policies, or his venture into Iraq, etc, etc. The difference between conservative thinking and liberal thinking is the main subject I have concentrated on for 40 years. Watch Fox for a couple of hours and study the personalities and philosophy and then watch CNN for a couple hours. The contrast in personalities and philosophy is stark. In my opinion. I have come to the conclusion there is a substantive difference between conservative and liberal thinking. But I have not ever really felt I understood that difference. Sort of like pornography. I cannot explain it, but I know it when I see it-lol. I will say this though: when I was young and before I went to college I had many conservative beliefs. As I became educated I became more and more liberal. My definitions: Conservative: to conserve a belief system. liberal: to put forth and entertain new beliefs. I do not think of conservative and liberal in economic terms, but rather in ones thinking process. Here are a few stark issues of the last couple of centuries for examples: 1) integration: mostly supported by liberals and opposed by conservatives. Conservatives filabustered for 14 days to prevent the 1964 civil rights act from becoming law and then the entire south switched from blue states to red states. 2) slavery: those were not liberals standing in the way of abolishon. 3) womens right to vote: same as 1 4) social security: same as 1 5)environmental issues: same as 1 6) Vietnamm war: l's against, c's for 7) abortion: pro choice liberal, pro life conservative 8) separation of church and state: liberal's for, conservatives not so much-lol. 9) gun control: same as 1 10) gay rights: L's for c's against Bush may have won th elast election over that issue in Ohio. I know this is a contraversial topic, but the entire US is paralyzed right now because of the differences in thinking. Interestingly, the conservative's are split on immigration: corporations and small businessese wanting cheap labor and WASP's wanting to retain purity. This issue could provide an opening for the dems in the fall. Immigration is one issue I am leaving to others. It requires existential decisions too complex for me to figure out-lol.
