The Fed; Tax Cuts; GM; Afghanistan; TSA Touch Up!

Big news week !!! Bernancke defends QE2 against flack from Germany and China. Did we destroy the world's economy and are they right to fight back? Or do we have the right to save our own economy in the best way for the US? Tax cuts: the new Democratic strategy is to take separate votes for continuing tax breaks UNDER $250,000 and another for OVER $250,000? Has Obama abandoned the cause, handing it off to Congress? GM's IPO: Uncle Sam decreased his ownership, 1 million jobs saved--can bankruptcy have a happy ending? Is this a success for capitalism or socialism? What happened to July 2011 as the end date for Afghanistan? And how's that touchy-feely thing workin' for you, TSA?
