Legion, despite all that you hear in the popular press, China and other governments continue to ADD to their positons of US debt. Yes, the % as part of the total is declining but this is the lunatic fringe speaking when they say these countries will “dump” our debt.

Sorry. You need to look at the actual data.

China’s not going to dump anything. Like I said above, they continue to buy more.

“II. Herkimer and I were a little hurt that he didn’t ask about either of us, only The What.”

When the rest of us start to gain that sort of notariety…it’s time to roll up the OT! Or check into some safe place for “a rest”.

You’d be interested in knowing where Al Gore’s investment fund’s office is and what he pays for rent. All I can say is sweeeet.

BTW he was at B&N 5th Ave yesterday afternoon, longest line I’d ever seen there.

“I love that 11217 and Legion are having an intelligent debate in the middle of our usual mindless banter ;)”

I noticed that, too, DH, lol. I just figured I’d slip past them without interrupting. Better to mind my own business.
