I like your analogy Tommy and I agree with it. The one thing they never consider about CDS is that someone will still have to pay for it. Just like Katrina, when someone has to pay for the call for their insurance and the amount is just way too large, do you really think that the insurance/CDS company will be able to pay for it? Especially ...

Dear Mckrysti, I agree. but like I said, what's the point of tax cut when people are losing their job and there's nothing to cut.

The true American way is that when you do the right thing you becoming successful and ...

Wow. In case you haven't noticed and Obama has been saying this many many times. There is only one President of the USA and he is not the President yet until Jan 20th. Stop holding Obama accountable on something that he can't really change. Put the blame where it deserves.

most people are probably not aware of this and I know this is a technical mambo jambo but I seriously don't think Obama should keep his blackberry for national security reason. Did you know that all of the blackberry traffic that was generated all over the world, got routed to Canada before it got push to your blackberry devices? I know Canada ...

I love this type of article. Talk about the story behind what media rarely talk about. It's absolutely fascinating. Excellent job NewsWeek. :-)
