Did anyone watch The Mclaughlin Group on PBS today. They had their annual plethora of news stories (good, bad and inane), there was however much mention of the banking crisis. The general feeling was that there was much worse to come. I like watching the year end show as the time constraints prevent shouting and bickering, an otherwise normal practise for this group. BTW Pat Buchanan is still in love with Ron Paul.

Anyway FYI and the best New Year to all the wonderful inciteful posters on this forum.
