Bailing out the economy

The Nasdaq headed sharply lower on Friday, one day after a solid rally helped it temporarily wipe away all of its losses for the year. Traders pinned the declines mostly on profit-taking after the big rally seen in recent weeks. Another round of upbeat signals from the consumer did little to tame the selling. President Obama speaks with bank leaders ahead of global discussions on how to fix the world's economy. Speaker: David Henderson, NYSE trader, Dru Stock Conway Gittens reports from New York.

Terror Suspects May Be Released in U.S.

Obama's intelligence head confirms some Gitmo detainees may be released in the states and also given assistance to return to society. What about the citizens of the USA who need assistance? Are they going to get any help or must they suffer in silence. This is scary, even George had better sense than that!

ACORN Accused of Mob Tactics

Whistleblower says ACORN provided liberal causes with protest-for-hire services and coerced donations from demonstration targets using a gangland-style "protection" racket. Which to most who have been following the news about ACORN are not surprised. The White House and congressional officials discussed allowing bonuses for executives of companies getting bailouts at meetings from which Republicans were excluded. Obama surrenders plan to have combat-wounded veterans pay for medical care. As for me I think every man or woman who runs for a higher government office should have more knowledge of what war can do to a person both physically and mentally. A requirement of 2 years service in any branch of the military would be a lesson to some. I'm happy to hear he has done an about face on this one. Our troops deserve more than what they are getting for risking their lives to keep our country
free from war on the homeland. They already get less care than the aliens who are here illegally. Don't believe me? Just visit any veterans hospital and you will see.
