There has been a change in attitude in Germany and Europe towards the USA.  Merkel is now distancing herself from the USA.

Let the market bee, this is how the big boys play their game, that is why I don'tbelive in bail out. Corporation that made the wrong choice need to pay for their mistake. Bailout will just put money in the pocket of politicians and big corporation that bought those politicians in the past.

Here is another covert op gone bad. Somebody spilled the beans before the mission was complete! Watch the spin in the media on this one. http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/africa/cold-war-standoff-over-pirates-weapons-ship-947429.html

Who cares what the German's or French or the UN says about America?  As soon as they are threatened again by Russia or the islamic nazi's they will come begging the United States and the United Kingdom to save them.  As far as Afganistan?  Once the Geat General Petraues gets there things will change, just like they did with the surge in Iraq.  America needs to wake up and put America first and stop the giving a shit about weak countries that don't give a shit about us until they NEED something.  The bail out is a joke lets put someone in jail who was responsible for this mess, can you say Barny Frank?

Fitz, for crying out loud, as much as I can understand your frustration, thats not justifiable the way you put it.

Sadly enough, the US has now coming what was foreseeble for a long time : A War that was unjustified and has cost you guys dearly in taxpayers money and even worse, the loss of so many fine women & man fighting this unholy war. Let alone the 100000 civilian lifes lost within the Iraki peopel. Even Ron Paul saw it coming, by stating that the US should not engage in this war, because there was simply not enough money to do so. Close friends of mine & relatives living in the US saw it coming a long time ago, heck, even I wondered when browsing through the housing market ....... Loan not a problem, buy a house, no money down needed ..... What happened to the old style of buying something when you were able to afford it ?? When I & my family moved to the US in '97, no bank would give us credit, I was told I was a ghost ! After we had good jobs making money, they came from all sides offering credit. Guess what, we declined every offer. 

Dont you start thinking that the economys around the globe wont be effected by this whole mess. The german goverment had allready to shed out quite a bit, to save us from  financial breakdown.As did other european countrys. Turn it as much as you wish, you guys have been betrayed by your own leaders and bankers. The rest of the world will have to struggle as much as you. And this whole ordeal had its start at your doorstep, so dont be too astonished when countrys, that did not start it, are lightly upset.

But please, dont start to turn countrys against each other by writing the way you did. That is just a low blow, from somebody very frustrated.

Anyways, hopefully the right steps will be taken, God Bless You All.

Regards Ulli Dresbach
