Yes, but the strings get tangled sometimes as with shrub.

re:["The US President is just a wooden doll controlled by pulling strings."] ...and that's why you should always pay more attention to the puppeteers - than to the puppets. Hillary, Obama, or McCain - they are mere puppets and matter not. Pay attention to those who hold the strings - it's the same for all three. And the script has already been written. How many times have we now been told that -"the credit crisis is now over." That the "worst has now passed." And yet, look at the XLF. And where is Fannie Mae's stock price? It has been granted a near monopoly on mortgage finance, and yet where is the stock price? With the SEC's explicit endorsement, and actual instructions on how to cook the SFAS 157 books - why aren't the Financials acting like oil, or the transports? The mo-mo players are like chickens who've had their heads cut off, trying to find a safe corner in a round barrel. Tick, Tock. SOTB
