machinehead Posted July 21, 2004 Report Share Posted July 21, 2004 Notice how they caught Sandy Berger ...advisor to Kerry...stealing documents from the National Archive several months ago, yet didn't announce it until the week prior to the Democratic Convention. Last night, Trent Lott was on TV claiming the possibility of a "Nexus" between these stolen 9/11 documents and comments recently made by Kerry in stump speeches...as if to imply that Berger made Classified Documents available to the Kerry Camp. The Dirty Tricks are just beginning. Yesterday Rush Limbaugh called him "Sandy Burglar." Limbaugh is only funny when he ridicules Democrats. He fails to see the sinister black humor in his RePukeLickin' pals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

soup Posted July 21, 2004 Report Share Posted July 21, 2004 "n the last five years the U.S. economy has added over $15 trillion in debt bringing total outstanding debt to $37 trillion. According to Kurt Richeb?cher, ?During the 13 quarters from the end-2000 to the first quarter of 2004, private household debt has soared by $2.52 trillion, or 36%, and financial sector debt by $2.9 trillion, or 35%. Jumping from $578.1 billion in 1980 to $11,280.6 billion in the first quarter of 2004, the debt of the financial sector in the United States has skyrocketed from 21% of GDP to 98.4%.?

orvack Posted July 21, 2004 Report Share Posted July 21, 2004 A bit of Russell from last night. This is comforting. On the international front, we learn that China and the US are each holding "major war exercises." China in a widely publicized set piece, is holding a huge military exercise on mainland controlled islands in the Taiwan Strait. How about the US, which is committed to a free Taiwan? The US exercise, which is dubbed "Summer Pulse 2004," involves no less than seven aircraft-carrier strike groups, 50 warships, 600 aircraft and 150,000 troops around the globe. It's been described as one of the biggest military exercises ever staged by any nation anywhere in history. And in case you haven't heard, China and Russia will be holding joint military exercises early next year. China allied with Russia, now what's that all about? But do Americans really care about what's going on in the world? Check the newspapers, assuming anyone still reads them. The news sections get progressively smaller, and the sports and amusement sections get bigger and bigger. A study just out complains that only one out of ten Americans now reads a book as much as once a year. And those that do read -- they read one of the 20 most popular books on the best-seller lists. The amusement sections reader is buying stocks today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zensmoke Posted July 21, 2004 Report Share Posted July 21, 2004 Ford and GM -- banks on wheels? Tue Jul 20, 2004 03:09 PM ET By Tom Brown DETROIT, July 20 (Reuters) - Detroit may be known as the Motor City, but its automakers can seem more like banks these days than the gritty industrial powerhouses they were in the past. At Ford Motor Co. (F.N: Quote, Profile, Research) , core automotive operations earned more in the first quarter than its banking or finance arm, Ford Credit, for only the first time since 2000. In its second-quarter financial results posted on Tuesday, Ford slipped back into a familiar trend, however. It earned virtually all of its $1.5 billion pretax profit from Ford Credit. http://www.reuters.com/financeNewsArticle....storyID=5721303 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
