After years of listening to "The Experts" it has become apparent to me that the last thing someone wants to do is to listen to the experts. An expert is a specialist in a particular area  but all expert proclamations are made "out of context" and thus, in time, amounts to the proverbial "hill of beans". I heard a "Financial expert" suggest that the times at hand  suggest "accumulating cash" is a good idea. I consider myself an expert on experts and as such say BS to that one!

 If I accumulate 10000.00 this year, next year, that accumulated cash will have about 7500.00 in buying power...thats my own non expert opinion on accumulating cash and my expert opinion on experts!

Rather than reaffirming the rule of law and the Constitution's checks and balances, as Pelosi claimed, the new FISA "compromise" has done the opposite, signaling that the President is above the law.

After Pelosi's speech, the House passed the bill by a 293-129 margin with 105 Democrats -- including most of the leadership -- voting in favor and 128 Democrats against. The bill then went to the Senate, which was expected to approve it.

"I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United states of America

 and to the republic for which it stands,

one nation under God, indivisible with Liberty and Justice for all

 ...except Bush/Cheney, the Neocons, and the telecoms"!
