Maybe it's those with sons and daughters don't wish to risk having them caught up in Bush's religious crusades in the middle east?

Are we clear on that?

I had a client insist on converting $17,000,000 US into Cdn dollars today.

Just about all my clients are expecting the dollar to fall against other currencies and are hedging against their US$ exposure.

I am not making any judgement call on that fact...just stating it AS fact.

lol nash i think you pay good money for sort of "treatment". all kidding aside, who really cares what actors think about politics? i dont and i dont know anybody who does. i still think its funny that so many people think that the president is going to make a difference in their lives. to about 5-10% of the people would see any difference if the election had turned out different. last i heard from my brother who lives in detroit, he wasnt allowed to enter canada due to his long hair. so i say good luck to them, dont come back, we dont need any fair weather citizens.

Good, that will make our exports more competitive and raise the cost of imports.  Thus.. reducing our debt.  A 'weak' dollar is not necessarly a bad thing.

Yup, very true.

Canada had the same benefit when it's dollar was low.

But, I find it odd that everyone is so worried about the US dollar devaluing right after an election.  Surely that is a time for it to strenthen?

What is it?  

I'm not an economist, just an accountant.

It is always easy to view the American fighting man as insignifigant when one has not stood in their shoes.

Free enterprise and equal opportunity does not exist without someone willing to fight and die for it!

I guess in this day and age it is easy for the non-experienced to forget that!

Have a wonderful day!   :)

Anyone who would ratherjust whine and leave the country then stay and work to do something about what they dont like is in my mind a coward and I have little use or respect for.

You are free to leave.

bye bye,Adios, Aloha, chow,sayanora and all that good stuff

I'm sure SirLion was referring to the inaguration of Franklin Roosevelt.  I mean with the deficit spending and all.

Deficit will correct in the years to come....economy will grow and the fight against terror will not be easily won, but success will follow in time. Social Security will still be around and hopefully the Goverment will allow some choice for younger Americans as to how they would decide to invest that tax.

To those of you that mourn over the Kerry loss, you should re-focus on what we all have in common for the better of our country....the time and energy spent on whinin and insulting one another will yield very little.

As to what Europe or Canada has to say about US foreign policy decisions, they have never dictated US foreign policy nor will they in the future.....the choices this Nation has made over history has for the most part benefited them all....just the current generation lacks the experience, knowledge and character to appreciate it.

Kinda simple.

Yes, it will correct itself one way or another, but what makes you certain the correction will not be the downfall of America's economical power? What nations in our world history have been the world's largest debtor nation and recovered without some catastrophic economic loss? What makes you so sure SS will be around? How could our nation afford it if our nation's debts are asked to be reconciled?
