But no name, no single word repeated itself as often on the pages of the 1960s, and with so much controversy, as the name vietnam. It was a strange mixture of peace and war, a better filled nowhere and everywhere. Life during the day and death during the night. An ally when moment and gone the next. A jungle with barbed wire.

For them. But that is an a direct attack. Host bill in lynchburg, virginia. Caller to me, people claim that the Second Amendment is the most important thing. The right to vote is the most important thing right that we have, and republicans are doing everything they can, all over the country, to try to make it harder and harder for people to vote.

But is this a sign of things to come as we have two trading sessions left, actually . Yeah, brief stallout, slowdown. Weve had six straight gains ever since the taper was announced, and were still seeing good strength in energy and materials which is important because those groups have lagged the majority of the year. Now were seeing some reversion in the month of december where weve seen commodities reach the highest level since october. The yields getting over 3 in the tenyear, could serve to spook people, that is psychologically important.
