Mr. Chandler said Brown Brothers has long argued that government should set up an institution to soak up damaged U.S. mortgage securities similar to the Resolution Trust Corp. that bought up distressed assets during the U.S. Savings and Loan Crisis in the late-1980s/early 1990s.

You Can't Fuel All of the People All of the Time

Liberals dismiss studies that show a link between abortion and breast cancer, claiming they are biased because the people promoting the studies are "anti-choice."

 For the same reason, no one should believe the Democrats' "energy" policies.

Democrats couldn't care less about high gas prices. The consistent policy of the Democratic Party, going back at least to  ...</description>

Here is how our baby-boom generation solves problems: 



— Recently, George Bush went to Saudi Arabia to ask the ruling House of Saud to pump more oil. That request had about as much chance of success as the Democratic-led congressional effort to “sue” the Saudis in American courts for their selfish “price-gouging.”

The United States might have to redesign its money after a Court of Appeals ruled Tuesday that the traditional green dollar bills discriminate against the blind and visually impaired.



The U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit upheld the 2006 lower-court ruling that using the same colour and shape on all bills makes it too difficult for people with poor vision to distinguish between values.
