  • I don't think I would really be against this and here is why-Glass Stiegal.When this went away under Pres Clinton and Phil Graham-the whole idea of FDIC now must ensure these finance banks would at the least-be able to settle with their customers. To big to fail is more than a quainte idiom now in our vernacular-that wqas the way of life for these bankers because they knew if they blew it-our government must ensure they stay in business. That is why I dop not have a problem if we did this

  • Why don't we nationalize you Mr. Graham? Were do you get such a power? Who gave the Federal government the power to nationalize banks?

  • we may have to give you the boot lindsey

  • this guy is no republican.

  • Don't send me any direct respomses, I am over this nonsense I've moved on I'd rather drool over actress Lisa Ray.

  • Actually, I've heard it on CNN, ABC, and NBC. Fox News was just the first to report it...like they always are.

  • 4. President Obama did say that Afghanistan was the war of necessity. It still is. I think it is wise for him to get a lot of opinions on bringing troops in. When you only rely on an opinion from a General, you must realize that the General is going to ALWAYS say he needs more troops. I don't think a General in US history ever advised the President he needed LESS troops. We are talking here about the lives of our children. I would want robust discussion if my child was there!

  • 1. Surge? If we didn't illegally invade Iraq, there wouldn't have been a "surge."

    2. No, the American people were lied to in regard to Iraq at a time when we were full of anger and fear. Makes bush's lying to us 100 times worse, he played us. Iraq had NOTHING to do with 9/11 and we would have been out of Afghanistan by now if we hadn't dicked around in Iraq. Surge again? Ridiculous! Con't!

  • 1. I agree that the first surge was a failure. Bush should have fired Rumsfield before the '06 election.

    2 In '01, even the congress was on board in invading Iraq. The American people wanted something to be done.

    3. The second surge WAS a success when Gen. Petreus took over

    4. he said during his campaign that Afghanistan was the "war of neccisity". If so, why is he hesitant on sending in more troops? Even when the Gen. he appointed is highly suggesting it.
