Maybe. No money, stock markets down, banks going broke, huge NZ deficit (but tax cuts??), war, Palin is liked by a large percentage of Americans, Obama may not win (then again with the problems who would want to), disasters, price rises, electricity up and worse.
Typical - decided to withdraw the funds from the BNZ Managed Funds but said I would look at it upon our return and everything turns to custard. As for the poor ex-head of Lehmanns - only been paid half a billion dollars and says he is now suffering the pain of the decisions he made. Probably in Argentina they could put him out of his pain.
Will be watching Obama/McCain debate today (the second) while the other day I tried to watch Palin and Biden. Had to give up after about 15-20 minutes as she was so bad (and was allowed to get away with it). How anybody with even half a brain could select this incompetent twerp is beyond me.Just two examples - she said she wanted the Government out of peoples lives then complains because they were not supervising the Financial Markets. She then got her Generals mixed - giving a Civil War Generals name instead of the correct one.
She never really answered a question - and said at the start that she wouldn't !!! She is Bush in drag. Sadly most US leaders seem to lack ability.
An interesting story I read that in 1988 a woman was flying to Norway and her bags were overweight, but she didn't have the $103 to pay for them. The chap in the queue behind her offered to pay and she later sent him a cheque in reimbursement. His name Barack Obama.
