Re: Time in business requirements
JasonR, you are on a roll. We could then mix the "bad" leases in a little at a time with pools of "good" leases, buy insurance on them, and sell those. We'd try not to think about the fact that those would be further mixed with more "bad" and "good" leases... To make this REALLY roll though, we'd need Congress to step up. Follow the pattern of the 90s, and punish any leasing company that insists on only writing leases with customers who can repay. Block the merges of those leasing companies,...

Re: Gas Price Check
First, that was pretty insulting. Second, let me clear up my person beliefs on this subject. I believe that gas prices fall around the time of an election. That's it. As far as the why and how of it, I don't know and I provided that information in response to your question. I think some of the confusion you have is in finding a motive for a price drop. The motive is that higher prices mean more anger at the incumbent. The incumbents in the elections we are looking at are the Republicans...

Re: Gas Price Check
Big oil profits are 8%. Would you be willing to take less? They have record profits because of record sales but the doom and gloom media won't tell us that. The problem is Congress. Allow drilling in ANWAR and the Gulf and supply would be larger than demand and costs would go down.

Re: Political Speeches
There really isn't very much you can blame "the current administration" for. You can blame the President if you are talking about bills that he has vetoed. Most everything else falls under the jurisdiction of the United States Congress.

Re: Political Speeches
I have to disagree, the issues I believe make those Americans "unhappy" with the administration are directly tied to the administration. Iraq Rendition Torture Warrantless Wire taps of American Citizens All of these are the decision of the President, not congress.

Re: Political Speeches
I guess it is not totally unfounded to blame the President for Iraq but the decision was supported by Congress and the American People at the time. As far as the decision to stay, even the Democrats are backing off discussions of immediate withdrawal. Most Americans do not support the Cut-and-Run approach. I also don't feel that "most Americans" are against "water boarding" or Warrantless wiretaps of terrorists. If you choose to believe the polls, keep in mind how easy it is to push an...

Re: Political Speeches
I agree with you on Polls, they can certainly be twisted to say anything they want. However, I'd have to disagree with everything else. The decision to invade Afghanistan, where the terrorists are was supported by Congress and the American People. The invasion of Iraq was not. Since we both think polls are meaningless, I'm not sure how we'd determine if most Americans are against anything. Your assertion that you don't mind spying or torturing Terrorists has a flaw, how do you know if they...
