    Red is on vacation and SF doesn't come around anymore. I've been playing in the WWF tourney so no way have I had time to worry about such things.

    The LIBOR scandal is complicated, boring, and very English (which is also complicated and boring). No one to get all bent out of shape about here in the States.

    You won't see one here either because this forum is slam full of people who parrot talking points against regulating business and the LIBOR scandal is proof of why stronger regulation is needed. The fact that it's terribly complicated only cements the fact that there will not be an educated discussion on the matter because 99% of the people here won't bother to read anything longer than 200 words. They'll just wait to hear what [insert conservative talking head here] has to say about it, slip in a couple synonyms and pass it off as an original thought.

    Please start us off on the right foot. BTW, my conservative leanings do not support this massive scandal. Rate fixing is bs, at least until my home loan goes through....

    The whole thing. I don't do fox news spin. That entire speech was offensive to anyone who's started a business

    thats bs, he was talking about infrastructure, not being offensive to small business.
    Its the same thing when Romney said he likes to be able to fire people, totally taking out of context.
