Letterman's Top 10 list was "surprising facts about Sarah Palin," read by citizens of Wasilla, Alaska, where she was once mayor.
Haha,
To improve her foreign policy experience she recently went to the International House of Pancakes..
She calls Mcain Grandpa and spent a week in the hospital for trying to put lipstick on a pitbull.

Hi everyone

Please read my message listed here:

http://www.topix.com/forum/news/2008-presiden...

I am no reporter, just a concerned citizen who realizes that the election debates are counting for nothing at all this year. The polls reflect what the people want in America.

But the polls do not reflect the result of an election. You need to become informed and educated on the laws that are violating our rights, and being exploited by the Republican party to throw away millions of votes. This has already taken place.

Just read the message and then do some googling on "caging" the votes. Become informed and check to make certain that your vote is gonna count BEFORE election time gets here.

Bill Clinton blazed the trail to oil company mergers to dwindle to only 5 entities making the price controls we see today much easier.
It was during Bubbas watch again when Fannie&Freddie got on the Government pay roll.
Just the other day Bubba admitted he should have tightened up on the restrictions when he was President.
And uhh, the Republicans lauded Clinton for his "pro-business" policies.

As for Fannie & Freddie, both sides share blame (pretty much the entire Board of Directors were heavy Republican contributors who pushed for deregulation)- but the whole sub-prime mess would have happened w/o Fannie & Freddie.

The big mortgage companies (such as Countrywide) threatened to by-pass Fannie & Freddie altogether if they didn't start accepting some of the more risky loans that the mortgage companies were making - since Wall St. banks were eager to buy them and slice them up and resell them to investors.

The problem was the whole DEREGULATION and weakening of enforcement which was pushed by Phil Gramm (which also resulted in the oil bubble and Enron).

And this whole excess/live off credit didn't really come to fore until Bush's terms (it was the only way his administration could keep the economy going - spend, spend, spend; you remember how he urged Americans to go shopping after 9/11 and the thing that Bush pushed and was most proud of w/ regard to his domestic agenda was the rise in home ownership).

Btw, I'm saying this as a lifelong Republican and fiscal hawk.

Daily Horoscope for June 2

Virgo

You're feeling restless and need to introduce as much variety into your day as possible. However, you'll want this to be on your own terms, and you certainly won't like it if plans are changed without your consent or you feel you've lost control of the situation. Try to take everything in your stride, otherwise you'll end up feeling exhausted and frazzled.
