The Goldman infallibility myth 11:20am on 16 Mar 2009 Robert,

The bank's corporate centre should be monitoring their exposures to all counterparties and managing the risk accordingly. Who knows how much protection Goldman had bought against AIG defaulting? Done competently, they could have been in-line for an even bigger pay-out on those contracts if AIG had gone down.
Why poll numbers vary 6:14pm on 23 Oct 2008 RomeStu at 8: "Where in the Bible she holds s dear does it mention witches?"

Lots of places: Deuteronomy 18:10, 1 Samuel 28:1, 2Kings 9:22 2 Chronicles 33:6, Micah 5:12, Nahum 3:4, Galatians 5:20. Sorcery gets over 20 mentions on top of that, not to mention the dozens of references to evil spirits.

BTW I don't think that sneering at Sarah Palin for attending a church that holds a fairly mainstream Christian belief (ie witches exist and are bad) is very constructive; nor do I think Americans will/should be swayed by their enemies' view of the candidates - that would be called "giving in to terrorists."
