#1 A crisis in credit and confidence has swept across borders, with consequences for every corner of the world.

That is why I am committed to seizing this opportunity to advance comprehensive reforms of our regulatory and supervisory framework.

Perhaps you could call this a Global scale version of Rahm Emanuels Rule one.
Never allow a crisis to go to waste.

#3 The problem, Obama, is that you're only ready to lead the lemmings over a financial cliff. Your budgets will give us a $9T National Debt over the next decade, on top of your "stimulus" plan that is already pork-laden, irresponsible and hyper-inflationary.

#6 PAKISTANI DEFENCE FORUMS > OBAMA PLAN PROMISES PAKISTAN THE MOON [e.g. Obama Admin wants US role in CHIN-dev GWADAR = "INTERNATIONAL/FREE" PORT].

Also on PDF > CHINA HIGH SEAS CASTS USA AS ADVERSARY.

US PERT [University/Chinese-Amer] = claims that CHINA DESIRES/SEEKS TO EXPAND ITS SPHERE OF INFLUENCE = MILITARY + GEOPOL OPERATING SPHERES/ARCS OUTWARD TOWARDS GUAM + PHILIPPINES.

HMMMMMM, as warned or inferred times before, NET > FUTURE GUAM = may becom a GEOPOL "NO-MAN'S LAND" = AREA OF CONFLICT/COMPETITION BWTN USA + CHINA. CAN NOW ADD RADICAL ISLAM TO THE EQUATION.
