I am not making political statements. Olivia a number of republicans backing to give more power to the feds. Greece is counting on the European Central bank. They country must make a payment to the imf in march. The ecb owes greece more than 2 billion from a bond selling program. He says the ecb should hand the money to the imf. This is not borrow money. It is our money. Our normal payment to the ecb. Why not have the two institutions find it amongst themselves a way of transferring these funding. Investors are showing confidence in the new greek reform proposal. Almost 800 million returned to greece Bank Accounts. In ukraine, the ceasefire may be taking hold. No attacks by prorussian rebels overnight. The country has another problem. They are losing more than 50 against the u. S. Dollar this year.

Have this conversation. [laughter] [applause] [laughter] thank you.

And on facebook and a lot of people thought that. Yeah, a lot of people say that what you do behind the scenes may have a proclivity of what you do in public. Clintons impeachment trial was definitely, for the first time, a president s sex life was out in the open for everyone to judge, and since then, knowledge of sex scandals has increased dramatically, making it easier to spread the dirty details. Americans never seem to fire of the stories, but does the public hold politicians to a higher moral standard or simply the standard that they expected of themselves and significant others .
