2. I Euroed and Don't Regret It!
Right after the election, in my anger and concern, I dumped a good portion of my stocks and bought Euros...figuring that if the draft returns and with an 18-year old son, I want to be as flexible and fluid as possible. Short of being Eric Cartman and walking with a radio flyer wagon of money or gold bricks around (not that I have that much) I just had so little confidence in both this country and it's economic policies.

Of course Condelsleeza "don't do economics" (nice grammar for a former Stanford prof), she knows that shedding any light on this issue opens a real can of worms for her own hive. Not many wingnuts are crazy on the idea of our country's debt being sold for cheap to the Chinese. They wouldn't like knowing how many French banks do business with this regime and extract special rates. Of course Condi "don't do economics"...she doesn't do the truth either.
