Great Depression - Hoover's anti-trade policies and the Fed's artificially low interest rates had a lot to do with this, yet its constantly cited as "proof" that free market capitalism doesn't work. What about the government intervention that contributed? Do we have proof that they failed too?

Bush - Oil prices are up, inflation is up, food is up, housing is a mess, and the world is angry at us and insecure about the future of our investments. Why? Well, because he spent too much money using the government to interfere with the economy!

So, if a Socialist Government calls itself Capitalist and then fails, is that good proof of the failure of Capitalism ... or of the failure of Keynesian Socialism?

Soon, nobody will take the time to use it except a few whiny people. Then there will be no money in it for Yahoo, and it will be a service no more. True?

Is Bush trying to start more war fronts then any other president? Is he going for a record? Is he trying to beat Hitlers record? Is that the legacy he is looking for?

Since it turns out Iran is NOT trying to make a nuclear weapon, shouldn't Bush apologize saying the world has to support an attack on Iran to prevent World War III?

"If you're interested in avoiding World War III, it seems like you ought to be interested in preventing them from having the knowledge necessary to make a nuclear weapon."

Why has CNN turned the debates into a joke.

Here is one small concept that CNN had: We'll have 5,000 youtube people ask questions. Then CNN will decide which questions actually get put to the candidates.

That is exactly the same as if CNN had asked those questions!!!!!!

Anyway....

"
In fact, this most recent debacle masquerading as a presidential debate raises serious questions about whether CNN is ethically or professionally suitable to play the political role ..."

By the democratic majority in congress? We know that back-room tactics are employed. Who's to say the committee subcommittee, used strong arm tactics to pressure the security advisory to produce such a contrasting report.
