You would have thought Bernanke would have learned something from Greenspan, apparently he hasn''t.

Well said! I used to go line by line with this troglodyte myself, but you might as well be reading the bible to a monitor lizard, so I quit. Keep up the good work as long as you can though.

Interest rates absolutely need to go up. Negative real interest rates (interest rates below the rate of inflation) are destructive to the economy in the end.

Unfortunately, I don''t believe Bernanke has the brains or the balls to actually raise interest rates.

Let''s take these one at a time.

1. Bush, you''re probably right on this one.

2. Military; you''re way off base here, we love the military and many of us have served proudly. What we hate is an "unecessary war".

3. Capitalism; wrong again, love it! We do believe in helping others less fortunate though, that''s probaly what you mean.

4. Christianity; WOW, where are you coming from? Most of us (not all) are totally Christian and many of us attend church regularly, do you?

5. Family values; this is a hard one because the term is highly subjective. But if you mean raising our children to know right from wrong, respecting one''s parents and elders, working hard, acknowledging that we are subject to a higher power, then you''re wrong again.

6. Rich people; no, we don''t hate rich people. We don''t like wealth without responsibility though; the wealthy of our nation, like Bill Gates, Warren Buffet, Ted Turner are all to be admired. Each of these people have given literally billions of dollars to help others; how could we hate them? If you''re referring to Ken Lay, etal, again, we don''t hate them, we do hate their actions though.

Hope this set''s the record straight.

Re money and Iraq - from the BBC yesterday

"A BBC investigation estimates that around $23bn (#11.75bn) may have been lost, stolen or just not properly accounted for in Iraq.

For the first time, the extent to which some private contractors have profited from the conflict and rebuilding has been researched by the BBC''s Panorama using US and Iraqi government sources.

A US gagging order is preventing discussion of the allegations.

The order applies to 70 court cases against some of the top US companies."

It goes on to say "the gag order is unlikely to be lifted while President Bush is in office."

The price of EVERYTHING is going up, and Bernanke the Brain doesn''''t have enough sense to figure out why. Not a surprise, when you take into account who appointed him.

Last week, Bernanke said he didn''t see the country headed toward a repeat of a dangerous 1970s-style wage-price spiral"

Yeah - this was the same dumb *** whoo supported his beloved buddy Bubbles Greenspan''s claims that the assinine monetary policies and assinine tax cuts of Chimpy''s first term were guaranteed to ensure unsurpassed economic growth, low inflation, and ever inncreasing tax revenues

Where''s the prognosis from SpongeBob Square Pants - that''s far more likely to be accurate than that of d1ckhead Bernanke

Bernanke thinks raising interest rates will help our economy.

The captain of the Titanic thought a Dixie cup would be adequate in bailing out the Titanic.
