Bush doesn't even have much the Christian right behind him anymore. Everyone has quietly left the building. Even some Democrats are being semi-nice to GWB for two reasons: 1) Continuity of Government. There are still 30 months until the next Presidential election, then another 3 until the inaguration. I expect that much of his cabinet are serving out of patriotism. There appears to have been a shift in foreign policy, especially about Iraq and North Korea. 2) The Democrats are salivating at the thought of having Bush around for the next two elections. Sometime this weekend I will think of something nice to write about GWB.

Brazil according to treasury secretary can stand 5 months of markets' bad humor. He says the volatility hit hard Brazil but that owes to the fact that Brazil's market is the most liquid of the merging ones. I haven't got his interview in English only in Portuguese: Brazil Has Enough Cash for Five Months to Pay Debt, Kawall Says May 22 (Bloomberg) -- Brazil has enough cash for five months to pay its debt obligations without the need to access debt markets, Treasury Secretary Carlos Kawall said. The recent declines in emerging markets will have a limited impact on Brazil's economy, which will keep growing, Kawall said in an interview in Sao Paulo. Brazil will likely surpass its target for the primary budget surplus, which excludes interest payments on debt, of 4.25 percent of gross domestic product this year, Kawall said.
