New York Times: Reports that Bush bail out of the Western Economy will cover firms outside the USA but with links the USA firms, the Times write the following, " The administration suggested that it might adjust its proposal, initially restricted to purchasing assets from financial institutions based in the United States, to enable foreign firms with United States affiliates to make use of it as well. " The Conservative within me is starting to have problem with this massive bail out, the point of the Capitalist system is that some get rich and others don't, we don't live in the USSR. If the USA government bails these companies with bad debts out, at what point do you say no, in the global economic world a company has to be efficient and make money, but it could be argued that the Bush Administration is creating a safety net that Liberals will scream for every time a company goes belly up, the Great Depression was bad but the economy came out of it at the end, no I am not arguing for another Great Depression but the Western Economic System can not become another USSR, this has to be a one off deal, or other wise the economy will go in to the toilet.

Presidential Debates
Telegraph: Reports on how McCain and Obama are getting ready for their Debates. The problem for the journalists covering this is the fact that both sides try to undersell their candidates, thus Obama is not great at debates and McCain gets angry. If you want to see the reality watch the West Wing Show when Leo is going to debate, and both sides spin how they are going to debate. I do wonder sometimes that the 08 race is so much like the last season of the West Wing, could they not save money and just run the show again, and have the election n November.
PRESIDENT JED BARTLET and OBAMA
New York Times: A very witty article by Ms Dowd of the LIBERAL New York Times, Bartlet of the West Wing giving advice to Obama. The one problem I have with the article is the following, she has Bartlet stating the following, " It’s not bad enough she’s forcing her own daughter into a loveless marriage to a teenage hood, she wants the rest of us to guide our daughters in that direction too? " Does the elite media want Palin's daughter to have an abortion so it confirms their view of the world, do the they want to sacrifice a human life to make a cheap political point. Also Bartlet would never use that, Bartlet was a disaster as President, arrogant much like Obama but he would never get in the gutter and use the family of candidates against them, Mr Sheen aka Jed Bartlet was asked to run for the Senate in Ohio, he knew the difference but reality and a TV show, he wise was to decline the offer. I do wish they bring back the West Wing, no matter who wins , also get back Mr Martin Sheen as Bartlet, he cold be the Jimmy Carter of the TV Presidents. So back to the point, poor New York Times and Ms Dowd, expect better from a good writer.
