Patricia, I think the extinct 'bird's' name was 'DODO' (pronounced 'Doe-Doe')... altho, "doo doo" DOES describe the situation in D.C. And you're right- their 'knee jerk' reaction, automatically thinking I am a Lefty just because I dared imply the GOP shares some of the blame for the fiscal mess we are- shows clearly the 'tunnel vision' thinking that has captured much of the so-called 'conservative' electorate. For the past generation, we've had a whole string of socialist politicians, dressed in 'conservative' 'sheep's clothing' , hood-winking the conservative base by mouthing conservative 'platitudes', while spending kazillions of tax payer dollars, right out of John Maynard Keynes' playbook..DODO BIRD, indeed

Sure there is a ton of money out in the world. That’s why prices for dot coms went way up. And despite the subsequent bust, it didn’t stop money from moving into real estate. And when real estate busted, it hasn’t stopped money from moving into metals, oil and other commodities with astonishing rapidity.

Despite a sluggish economy in the U.S. in the last decade, world GDP had roughly doubled in that time from $32 trillion in 2000 to $63...
