No need to talk about the stock market. Most of us know what is coming, dwot, alstry and I  have been saying it over and over. How about something else? 

How do you lose $1.4 billion in a couple seconds? Here:  

Your children and grandchildren in the "flat world" economy will be paying for that a long time, may not think that was entertaining.

Since there is a US media blackout on the Iraq War. I thought I would post what is news is coming out of Iraq. The Iraq occupation has a little to do with the US economy? Si or No?

Micheal Ware is/was one of the few accurate sources of information coming out of Iraq.

Here is Micheal Ware bringing John McCain "up to speed":

CNN: Iraqi has been "ethnically cleansed".

FYI - More on youtube if you like watch: The Truth About Iraq - Michael Ware or Real Time: Interview with Michael Ware

I worry about Micheal Ware's health. He was in Iraq for four years, he seems shaken up. He is the most accurate source of information from Iraq.

Lara Logan on Bill O’Reilly: It’s so ridiculous. ..you shouldn’t have to stoop to address those kinds of issues.

She also responded to Bill O’Reilly’s argument about why he doesn’t cover the Iraq war all that much…

LOGAN: Well, I mean, with all due respect to Bill O’Reilly or anyone who takes that line, I mean, I just — it’s ridiculous. It’s completely and utterly ludicrous. And how can you — the media’s job is not to serve one side or the other. That’s never been our job. We’re there to be the watchdog for all sides."

 www.wonkette.com has the story:

WAR IS HELL

"In an age when most reporters for the American media are timid, pasty, milquetoast mumblers, Lara Logan stands head and balls above the rest. Sure, we’ve seen some stories about her romantical adventures in Iraq’s Green Zone and an exciting brawl in a safe house between two rival suitors — and our only question is, Just two?

Somewhere in heaven, Martha Gellhorn is laughing.

Sure, it’s sad to see Lara Logan’s (very exciting!) private life become the story when she is one of the rare individuals who has actually shown some courage in a war that has made cowards of many of us (media, voters, elected officials, blah blah blah). That said, we find it entirely fitting that she’d want to bone Michael Ware, the sexy Australian with the fxxxed-up nose.

In conclusion, there is nothing more awesome than war correspondents constantly sexing each other and having fistfights, because that is what Hemingway wanted for America.

Anybody who calls her a whore in the comments is getting their ass banned, forever.
