We'd have to slap these stickers on the foreheads of Obama, Clinton, and McCain to have any real impact. Actually, over their mouths would be better.NotThatDavid | February 28, 2008, 3:52pm | #

Yeah, this is a great idea...another cool idea would be to add this tag to videos of politicians speaking...like a YouTube remix of, say, Bush's state of the union or one of the Democrats' NAFTA bashing.sv | February 28, 2008, 5:05pm | #

Am I supposed to print up another sticker with the citation on it when I find it, and put it underneath? I don't get it.red eye fan | February 28, 2008, 9:36pm | #
Kerry, aren't you going to announce your appearance on "Red Eye" tonight?Ivan Ivanovich | February 29, 2008, 10:57am | #
I love it! I can't count the times when people say things, especially at blogs, without any proof what so ever. I just want to scream, WHERE DID YOU GET THAT! I love Wiki.And Russ; as to Clinton, Obama, and McCain, please remember that most of what they are promising is under the control of our 634 members of Congress. If you buy into the idea that the country is in trouble [citation needed] then you have to vote for Obama. He is the least to blame. On the other hand if you believe, like I do, that the country and the world is better off today than it has ever been before then vote for McCain. Citations; GNP up, Stocks pretty good, race and gender-just look at the candidates, no recession, winning the war. Shall I go on?

"Inflation is everywhere and always a monetary phenomenon, in the sense that it cannot occur without a more rapid increase in the quantity of money than in output." --Milton Friedman, Encyclopedia Britannica article on "Money"See this UK Telegraph article.
On the other hand, speaking before the Senate Banking Committee on Feb 28, Fed Chief "Bernanke told lawmakers the Fed anticipates inflation will slow, in part because of "sluggish'' economic growth and rising unemployment."
