THANK GOD too, Obama's focus on this issue was the single biggest reason I thought he was the better candidate of the two. As I said, innovation and skill are in dire need of injection over imitation and, well, idiots. This shouldn't be hard to do with some funding pushed in since the infrastructure is here to educate the population, as the USA has far and away the most resources available for education of any country per capita.

Random news, so I guess the feds are bailing out Citigroup (was there ever any question). Also a sign of the hard times, alcohol sales are up the past month.
