alexed, Correct it's Voodoo time again. Here's an Op-Ed piece from the NYT today.
Voodoo vs. 'Rubinomics'
Large deficits matter. Those three words sum up Alan Greenspan's testimony before Congress last week, testimony that will make it more difficult for the White House to get its proposed tax cuts enacted. That such an incontrovertible statement of basic economic thought could roil Washington and create problems for the Bush administration is an indication of how surreal, and cynical, budgetary politics have become.
During the 1980 battle for the Republican presidential nomination, George Bush called Ronald Reagan's belief that you could dramatically increase military spending and cut taxes, while preserving fiscal discipline, "voodoo economics." Mr. Bush proved prescient, though he could hardly boast about it from his vice-presidential office.
Now Mr. Bush's son is practicing voodoo economics, and it is Mr. Greenspan who has, however delicately, called him on it. Even without factoring in the cost of his latest round of proposed tax cuts or a war with Iraq, President Bush's budget for the next fiscal year would result in a $307 billion deficit — a worrisome 3 percent of gross domestic product. And his administration concedes that deficits are back to stay.
But the White House line is that they don't matter. To worry about the impact of deficits on the economy, administration officials are fond of saying, is to engage in "Rubinomics." It's a mystery why they would think it disparages a view to associate it with Robert Rubin, President Clinton's widely admired Treasury secretary, whose policies were rooted in mainstream economics. It's equally bizarre to see conservatives in Congress embrace large deficits as an antidote for government spending. It's a theory that goes back to Reagan days, and it surfaces only when there are Republican deficits that need explaining away. To the unenlightened, it sounds like telling a compulsive shopper to solve his problem by maxing out on his credit cards.
The deficits have not, in fact, persuaded the Republican majority to stop spending. Last week they were right in there with the Democrats, stuffing more cash into the already bloated farm aid program and into obsolete weapons systems.
The fact that both parties have their own pork barrels and budgetary sacred cows is not new. But the idea that politicians now believe they can embrace ballooning deficits as a sign of fiscal conservatism is downright dangerous. That is why it was so refreshing to hear Mr. Greenspan recite a tenet of Rubinomics 101 when pressed about the significance of the deficit: "Contrary to what some have said, it does affect long-term interest rates and it does have an impact on the economy." The Fed chairman also questioned the need for any stimulus package, given that the economy's war jitters may be the only impediment to a solid recovery.
Mr. Greenspan's endorsement of the first round of Bush tax cuts in the spring of 2001 helped get them enacted. His wariness this time may persuade moderate Republicans to oppose the president's reckless plan, even though on the second day of his testimony Mr. Greenspan's qualms were more muted. He may have felt his history with the Bush family weighing upon him. The first President Bush's economic team has argued that the Fed's failure to cut interest rates more aggressively in early 1992 contributed to Bill Clinton's election. With that in mind, it cannot be easy for Mr. Greenspan to be perceived as criticizing this White House, even when he states the obvious.
Hey, those are serious criminals. The only thing we are guilty of here are pumping and dumping, stocks, sports teams, women and each other and of course not putting the trash out or taking it to the dump.
Cytotekk, Thanks for the compliment!
Check the Post office for pictures. You'll find us all there.
shaolin, Andy Groves (Intel) and Bill Gates (Microsoft) are constantly working against you!
Some things just aren't made to last forever I guess. Thanks again ~ shao
We're supposed to do those things! Or at least I do!
It would be un-american to leave during the singing of Take Me out to the ballgame.
You can always stay home and clean! ;)

Cytotekk, No serious replies to that please! We're talking baseball here!
Cytotekk, Maybe this is the reason he doesn't go out.....
There's a fellow who is an avid golfer. Actually he's
a golf fanatic. Every Saturday morning he has an early tee
time.
He gets up very early and golfs all day long.
Well, this one Saturday morning, he gets up early,
dresses quietly, gets his clubs out of the closet, and goes
out to his car to drive to the course. It is raining a
torrential downpour. There is snow mixed with the rain and the
wind is blowing 50 mph.
He comes back into the house and turns the TV to the
weather channel. From there he finds that it's supposed to be
bad weather all day long. So he puts his clubs back into
the closet, quietly undresses and slips back into bed where he
cuddles up to his wife's back, and whispers,
"The weather out there is terrible."
She replies, "Can you believe my stupid husband is out
golfing?"
Cytotekk, They forgot plenty of O2 producing house plants!
Soxie and Low, The honeymoon's over...........
Martinez couldn't understand why the Red Sox wouldn't pick up his option during the season.
``I came off a season where I won 20 games,'' he said. ``If you look at the market and the way pitching is, it should be a bargain.
``If they don't pick it up now, it means they don't trust how I feel,'' he said. ``Would you stay with a woman that tells you she doesn't love you? It makes no sense.''
Try Start, Programs, MS-Dos Prompt.....
It will open a dos window. Then type chkdsk and hit enter.
AK's house gets FEMA approval.....
The newly minted FEMA procedures, the importance of assembling an EMERGENCY DISASTER KIT that includes three day's supply of water, food, batteries, a portable radio, duct tape, plastic sheets, aloe vera handi-wipes, a chemical shower, a home pharmacy of 5000mg Ciprol IV's, thyroid-protecting tinfoil turtlenecks, the complete books-on-tape version of the New Testament as read by Charlton Heston, a chainsaw, sawed-off shotgun, and if you can, a private island in the South Pacific.
shaolin, Is there a difference between memory and disk space?
Yes.
memory or ram allows you to start programs and run them from the disk drive/disk space.
If ram is low Windows will use a "swap" file on your hard disk to exchange pieces of the software you are running that it currently doesn't need.
Since digital cameras create large files/images these can load on to the disk drive, as long as there is space.
The problem arises when you open the photo software, then try and open the digital image. I have a 2.1 megapixal camera and the file images are running around 367KB or 1/3 of a meg.
It seems that you are both tapped out of hard drive space and don't have enough memory/ram.
Time for a new computer.
Admit it, you need more places to the right. lol.
OTCBB participants will only be able to enter up to four places to the right of the decimal for quotes (e.g. 2.2356)
FoF, There is nothing that training cannot do. Nothing is above its reach or below it. It can turn bad morals to good, good morals to bad; it can destroy principles, it can recreate them; it can debase angels to men and lift men to angels. And it can do any of these miracles in a year--even six months.
"As Regards Patriotism"
Susie is already trained!
kiababbuck, If I wanted your opinion, I'd ask for it.....
Noise proves nothing. Often a hen who has merely laid an egg cackles as if she had laid an asteroid.
But keep cackling, I'll ignore the noise.
LOL. Susie sent her husband out shopping while we toyed with her!
I'm siding with Phil, he's got a bigger gun than me!
Shao, Not enough Ram! Time for an upgrade! It will be cheaper in the long run.
I would never say that! My wife would kick my butt! ;)
Try getting a refund from your respective colleges.
Both my wife and myself have college educations and some of it is simply too dense for us.
You're not serious are you?
Try Tom Ridge!
I've heard you call other posters that!
