Can''t be long now before another big Bank fails can it?
But who though?
Wash Mutual? Wachovia? Citi?

Those were WHINER banks anyway..if they weren''t in such MENTAL RECESSION they would have made it.
Choice words from what was (and probably still is) McCain''s economic adviser Phil ''Turtlehead'' Gramm...

Here comes the Amero currency. Any good guessers out there what the Dollar-Amero exchange rate''s gonna be? How much of our freedom we will lose?. How''s the thought of being called a "Canamerexican" set in your gullet?.....You simpletons, should''ve paid more attention to RON PAUL. You had your chance,.....but its still not too late. If everyone voted for Chuck Baldwin of the "CONSTITUTION PARTY",.....we might squeak by in avoiding the loss of our sovereignty.

Tip of the iceberg given the number of institutions with high Texas ratios. The FDIC is desperately to prevent a panic.
