TERROR THREAT FRAUD

Concrete Guy, well said. As the mother of two college students---one in Manhattan and one in Denver---I have been following this very closely and admit to being truly terrified. Our government's politically correct policies have enabled the pernicious Islamification of the United States, and I fear we are about to realize how foolish we have been. I pray we wake up before it's too late. Though definitely not a neo-con, I am very much in support of the Patriot Act and the efforts of the Department of Homeland Security, CIA, FBI and state and local police jurisdictions to try to prevent another terrorist attack on our soil.
Mr. Quinn: I have read pretty much everything available on the net on this topic and have concluded that this blog entry is very poorly researched and written with a pervasive anti-government/security bias. In my view, our government's number one job is to protect us from those who wish to harm us; and to harm us is the number one job of all true believers of Islam. To be a devout Muslim requires strict adherence to the words of the Koran and Haddith. Since Islam is both a religion and a political/cultural system the Koran and Haddith provide the guidelines covering all aspects of Islamic life. To really appreciate the scope of our current dilemma with Islam I strongly recommend that you read the Koran, ALL of it, not just the first chapters. I have. Perhaps then you will understand why we are so afraid. Islam is most definitely NOT a religion of peace and love. If wading through the horrifyingly violent, self-contradicting gibberish in the Koran is too much for you, just read one of Robert Spencer's books, or one by Bruce Bawer. How are you going to feel after the next attack? Will you blame the US, or the victims? WAKE UP. THEY WANT TO KILL ALL THE INFIDELS---THAT'S US.

Don't Touch Anything Requiring the Use of Short-Term Lending Markets

Liquid:
Although the Fed funds rate will likely drop, institutions will only be willing to lend if the spread between the rate at which they are borrowing and the rate at which they are lending is sufficiently large to justify the risk. Hence, higher interest rates for borrowers.

How Did We Get to This Point?

Dr. Brown,
I believe you meant to say "underserved populations" rather than "undeserved ppulations". A Freudian slip perhaps?
