Claro!~

In warfare, a set piece battle may involve large formations moving according to a plan and responding to the opposing force also by plan. An example might be the Schlieffen Plan

i get the drift & there no ain’t pc police comin’ from here as i fully believe in and appreciate a full range of opinions. but say what you want, the set piece is weak and it deserves to be called such.

I’m not, nor do think other are, ‘making fun’ of the Man, himself, for his name.

It’s coming from an entirely different vector: one premised upon the idea that we’re being entreated to a Show, replete with Scripts y Choreography, and that his name is apiece.

But, worry not, mon friere, feel free to file your reports / the PC Police, then, kindly, Take a Report, for yourself.

paulson has faith in neel and we’ll all have to as well. yeah, the script sucks and his oratory seems pretty stiff, but judging the man on his name and look is plain ‘ole bigotry and lame.

Watched some of it on C-Span yesterday. Neel seems like he is eminently capable of implementing this failed plan with utmost effeciency.

Instead of having to watch an f’ing webcast, how about we see something in writing? Even the Treasury website has no details.

I suppose it’s the Bush Administration STOP. Don’t give out specifics.

All we know so far is amounts and the fact that we don’t get as good an interest rate as any private investors. Don’t want to become socialists here.

I suppose the Europeans are again laughing at what schmucks American taxpayers are.

If you want to listen to the whole speech it’s on CSpan:
rtsp://video1.c-span.org/project/economy/econ101308_kashkari.rm

He outlines the seven separate efforts including all the things like buying mortgages and mortgage loans, oversight, etc. Before you criticize too heavily you might want to a) actually get the facts, b)decide if it’s comprehensive enough and c) whether or not you have any better ideas.

What WE need now is solutions not carping critiques.

>This is an outlier of rational action on the part of the Bush administration.

The Europeans showed up over the weekend and set them straight.

Do you have to shave your head to work for Paulson?
