Greenspan joins Bob Hope in knighthood

[gary butler]

Yes I can see the head lines, as if we need them,
another capitalists does well, I cannot believe that
one person has been delegated so much power. Greenspan
at one time before the drastic decline of the dollar
bill was considered the most powerful man in the
world.
His power far exceededs that of pResident bush any way
you look at it,they are both crooks. Yes and old right
winger Bob hope one of the wing hollywooders that
ratted on good people during the
mccarthy hearings of the 50's hope,and so was that
worthless waste of human flesh reagan,john wayne,and
many more,sorry I got off the track,but greenspan
is very powerful.
