1. You mean the one caused by the war with Iran caused by America
being dependant on petrol being traded in US$ to sustain and subsidize US debt & asset selloff to keep the market going?

Yes - stupid people neocons. They had the US dollar as the 'world currency' and now are so hated..that is up in the air.

People holding US dollars like China & Japan...keep America from having to pay its way.

This is all so that perpetual markets can roar as the inflation is kept down by a policy of less than full employment.

2. At least his handlers were smart enough
to make sure he didn't break it until he was a lame duck.

THEN, the 2008 GOP nominee will run on the issue of stopping the draft, he'll be against the draft, and will echo all the right things in order to neutralize the issue.
