I just finished the book “Blue Gold” by Maude Barlow and Tony Clarke and was schocked to find out that what they call “transnational companies” that deal in the water/sewer business are seeking to privatize water throughtout the world. In their water contracts they gain control over a nations water/sewer and are more powerful in regard to water rights, than the gov’t in those countries. With the help of the World Bank, the World Trade Org., NAFTA, CAFTA, and etc., the corps are gainging control over the water/sewer in nation’s across the world through their legal contracts. And the book talked abt BIT’s, Bilateral Investment Treaties and how very few politiicians or citizens know the power they have or even that they exist. This book was written in 2002 so I don’t know where it stands now but it sure bothered me to read how transnational/international corp’s are becoming more powerful than the gov’t of the nation they are in, all over the world. I had no clue. I thought of Enron as an oil co but they and Betchel are/were gathering up the rights to the worlds fresh water and want to make it a commodity that moves and trades around the world like oil. And now the banks are too big to fail and who is asking for to break up these monopolies? WTF happened to my country?

Alan Grayson is a huge breath of fresh air, and Cavuto cannot stand it. Grayson found, however, that it’s tough to argue with someone who’s insane…

Yep.

You don’t win the war in one heated exchange, and the more we point them out as heated, for nothing.

Well, to us it matters.

To 23% it won’t matter what’s done, will it.

I say give them Alabama. All of it. With fences to keep them in. *G*

McCarthy never did, why should they?

I’m talkin Joe, Mac, not Charlie Mac, although the dummy was smarter than the Senator.

Nicer, too.

Hah! Silly me. I fell right into the trap of taking Cavuto seriously when he said he too was against failed CEOs ripping off the taxpayers.

Cavuto has suffered health problems, saying, “I don’t hide that I have had a tough life in many respects. I fought back a near-life-ending cancer, only to end up with multiple sclerosis years later. Doctors have since told me that the odds of contracting both diseases in the same life are something like two million to one! Yet here I am, marching on, continuing to do my job when doctors who’ve examined my scans and MRIs tell me I shouldn’t be walking or talking.”[3]
