Challenging times

"The Fed is on high alert -- something you don't see but once every quarter century; maybe, in this case, since the Great Depression. This is a very unusual period," said Mark Zandi, chief economist at Moody's Economy.com.

Jesus. The war, the economy, the ballooning deficit - has this administration done anything positive in the past seven years? They're doing a hell of a good job of destroying America."

Grossly overstated ? Remains to be seen.

Anyway, Americans (and the whole world !) are going to pay through the nose before the situation is "normalised". And a sobering thought : another administration (president) might have acted differently on the war. But on the other problems ? I'm not too sure.
