PBS Frontline has done an extraordinary job in airing documentaries focusing on the alarming security risks that threaten Pakistan as a viable nation-state. Through various account sources through the documentaries state that the number of Taliban inside Pakistan is growing faster than the Pakistani Army. The fundamentalist influece is gaining traction in places like Peshawar and metropolitan areas Karachi.

To eliminate the threat, we hear about daily missle strikes in Pakistan with the help of Unmanned Aerial Vehicals (UAVs) or drones to take out militants. It's disturbing yet predictable that even with the precision of such strikes that we cannot rule out civilian casualties. Such casualities, as the documentaries suggest major potential repercussions against our national interest.

Ever...

Most understand the pain of CNBC but all of it's going to pass relatively soon. Quite honestly, they aren't going to change for the sake of Jon Stewart over regulating Wall Street and making CEOs accountable. Perhaps they would for a short while for temporary self-amusement; a nudge here and there.. CNBC is encapsulated in a glass house and they really aren't paying much attention to the editorial/academia backlash against it.

Furthermore, CNBC personalities come and go. The network is built on the attributes of capitalism. Unfortunately to the dismay of many, we will not ever find Doug Henwood dominant voices on any shows. Perhaps he or someone of his ilk may appear as a special guest and get the masculine pounding of four right-wing douche bags to one on "Kudlow and Company" but that's the limit.

I was a bit apprhensive this morning about my first electronic voting experience but I have to see it was pretty easy and as intuitive as you can get!

Why can't all voting booths across our country use this type of voting machine?

See below for the video.

This past Saturday, I went canvassing in a low-income neighborhood for Barack's campaign in Allentown, PA. The area demographically is comprised mostly of Hispanic, Black, and a sporadic number of White folks. I've heard of countless stories of people who had threatening moments but thought to myself that my experience would never be as interesting.

Below is a video from a talk given by Neel Kashkari from the American Enterprise Institute (of all places!) on Sept. 19th 2008.. Kashkari has just been appointed by Paulson to head up the $700 Billion dollar bailout. Turns out, in the below video he is suggesting the use of a financial instrument used in Europe apparently to replace mortgage-backed securities with a recycled version for our market called "covered bonds." He proffers that it's not a panacea but it creates transparency and provides more liquidity for investors. Furthermore, he states that there should be no implicit government guarantee when it comes to covered bond legislation here in the U.S. in the near future.

Recommend -- this is huge! Keith and company need to report!
