Enemies-R-Us

[pms]

Isn't this why is was important that the Global Justice movement become
known as the anti-globalization, anti-capitalist mob?  They're gonna make
sure Afghanistan gets a guv that can facilitate the pipe-line (and keep the
poppies blooming probably), but they're also trying to make sure that the
next time a bunch of shareholders start telling Unical about social
responsibility and repressive regimes, they can put the commie terrorists in
their place.

COMMENT: God bless America! Let's hope American consumers are also blessed
with the resolve to keep shopping during these unsettled times! We are the
spenders of last resort. If we give in to terrorism, then the US economic
recession will worsen, and so will the global recession. That is why
President George Bush has been encouraging us to try to go back to business
as usual as best we can. Mayor Rudy Guilliani wants New Yorkers to spend
money at the stores, restaurants, and the shows. The President was right on
the money in his speech delivered Saturday in Shanghai when he observed that
the terrorists tried to disrupt the global economy. They are attacking
globalization. Mr. Bush intends to push for more globalization: "First, our
governments must keep the path of economic progress. That progress begins
with freer trade. Trade is the engine of economic advancement. On every
continent, in every culture, trade generates opportunity, enhances
entrepreneur growth. And trade applies the power of markets to the needs of
the poor."
