#20 I remembered the Cole. Never came across the story about the USS Liberty. Very interesting, thank you. I wonder what that ‘investigation’ vessel was investigating so close to a war zone where the Israelis were going apeshit. The 6 day war.

A lot goes on in the military that people never hear about. When I was in the Navy our carrier carried out repeated bombing missions on Lebanon, never got to the news though. Or how ’bout the fact that every time the ship left for a cruise before it got back on the average 7-8 crew members had died, in ‘peacetime’. Like I said before – FTN.

#12 We buy more than we sell and then they have used some of the surplus to buy our bonds.

Haven’t you noticed our heads of state including the President kissing up?

Not to worry we are going to get out of this mess the same way Greece and the other EU countries are going to get out of their mess so just keep an eye on Greece, etc. to see the future.

So far it looks like we are in for national strikes and riots with a lot of civil unrest. I think the population is in substantial pain but they still haven’t hit bottom yet.
