It is fascinating to see the new McCain ad about Obama’s lack of foreign policy experience. One can’t help but remember that the Gee Dub’s foreign experience upon taking office was little more than getting drunk in Mexico. Obama has more awareness of the greater world outside the US than the Bu$h does even now of parts of Texas more than a hundred miles from Crawford.

I have to note that it was all I could do to not puke listening to Paulson, on Face the Nation, continually maintain that all was well with the economy and the “long term fundamentals were strong.” I was a little cheesed with Bob S for not asking Paulson to explain just which fundamentals to which he was referring. Of course even Bob doesn’t seem interested very often in challenging the corporate and current administration very much.

Was Paulson referring to fundamentals such as the fact that the US has exported almost all of it’s manufacturing base, or the fact that the USA’s ass is owned by foreign countries like China and Saudi Arabia, who might have reason to cease being “friends?” I am always reminded when listening to this type of bloviating the forecasts and economic projections being given to President Hoover right though most of October of 1929. The short version being that the market was going to continue to climb and all was well – then of course there was a really big reality bite in the ass and the brokers started using the windows of their offices as exits.

BTW, Obama was looking good sinking the three pointer with the soldiers on the court over there in Afghanistan!

has a LOT more relevance to what is going on than ANY of the talking heads on what passes for ‘informational news’; It’s disgusting that these shows still get given any publicity by those who care about this nation.

You can transfer all your FF bookmarks to Safari. FF has a separate bookmarks folder that can be copied into Safari.

since the fdl upgrade two times ago, have to stop the page from loading or it will quit….mods had to do something so that i could even get in……now, have to do it fast, and often have to keep reloading cuz the links disappear when i go to select them, including comment box…sometimes i won’t have a submit button……cuz i can’t time the ’stop loading’ right yet.

there are a few sites here and there that will make my browser quit, so, i watch where i go if i have a lot of research windows open, but fdl and wapo are the only ones where i experience all of it. i figured out a few tricks around it, the ’stop loading’ once i saw the comment box is one but haven’t figured out a way around the new ones. yet.

not sure if i can upgrade……or if i can do firefox….will check. but even if i can, i don’t want to lose all of my bookmarks, do they transfer? (a duh question, i know, but explorer didn’t transfer all of them when i went to safari, pain in the @ss)

Maybe when a Democrat dominates the news we will finally see a bipartisan call for a return of the fairness doctrine.
