    Here is our biggest threat.

    Federal government debt of $9.5 trillion?
    $56 in unfunded liabilities to medicare and social security?
    Freddy and Fanny?
    How will the government pay for FDIC when they run out of money shoring up failed banks?

    Let me say that again because know one is looking at it 9.5 TRILLION

    The moral bankruptcy of our Nation is now translating into a physical one. The corruption of our Government and Business Lobbyists along with the Federal Reserve is coming home to roost.

    Actually since I mentioned the underlying cause, the moral bankruptcy, it is actually our biggest threat. A Nation is only as Strong, Honest, self Controlled, Truthful, Just, Charitable etc. as its people. When the moral code of a people is eroded the Nation follows.

    Now how much longer will the rest of the Republicans insist some pissed off Iranian goatherders on the other side of the planet are more dangerous to America than the collapse of it's economy?
