Hey Sandhusker- before Bush gets done your boss's name might be Pierre or Jose :shock: :cry: :lol: :p

Boy I'll bet the John Birchers and right wingers are pounding their chests- as they've said for the last several years- Bush was actively promoting a One New World Order.....


Brown Wants Global Super-Regulator

Monday, October 20, 2008 3:06 PM

By: Michael Kling



As world financial leaders gather to grapple with the ongoing financial crisis, British Prime Minister Gordon Brown is calling for a new world order.


That means international supervision of financial institutions, global accounting, and regulatory standards, he wrote in an editorial in the Washington Post. In other words, a global super-regulator.


Brown and other European leaders have proposed "guiding principals" for this new international system. Its hallmarks, according to Brown, are transparency, sound banking, responsibility, integrity, and global governance.


World leaders need another Bretton Woods agreement, an accord that created the International Monetary Fund and World Bank at the end of World War II. But those institutions are now outdated, Brown argues.


If world leaders create new international rules, he asserts, this year will be "remembered not just as the year of financial crisis, but the year we started to build the world anew."


The push for new worldwide rules may already have momentum, although actually accepting them is far from certain.


President George Bush, French President Nicolas Sarkozy, and European Commission President Jose Manual Barroso are urging world leaders to join them for a Bretton Woods II meeting after the U.S. elections.


American government officials say they're open to ideas but hinted they'd oppose strong powers for a global regulator.


European talk for a new world order is already drawing criticism. Europeans are eager to show their clout by forcing their plan for over-regulation on Americans, writes Irwin Stelzer, director of economic policy studies at the Hudson Institute, a think tank in Washington, D.C.


Individual nations must be able to opt-out of global rules if their particular circumstances warrant it, Stelzer wrote in an op-ed in London's Sunday Time.


The European plan calls for regulating all sorts of financial areas, like hedge funds and executive pay,
but it doesn't mention promoting financial services innovation, Stelzer wrote.

You can bet your last US dollar (and you might be just doing that) that Obama is a heck of a lot more likely to get us into something like that than McCain. Read the transcript of his Berlin speech if you have any doubts.

You don't realize it, but you just posted reason # 49,992 NOT to vote for Obama.

Sand....OT doesn't have a clue what his post means. He just cuts and pastes whatever shows up on the blogs he reads.
