Sorry to over stimulate you small leftest brain with truth and morality.

I'll keep it simple.

Roy Cooper-- BAD
Pat McCrory- GOOD

The rest of your post was too stupid to respond to.

It sounds as though it has nothing to do with his sex organs at all. He had a back injury, one assumes that the problem stems from damage to his nervous system. I'd guess castration would lead to a similar scenario to those who suffer from chronic pain in phantom limbs. Likewise there are neurological conditions, such as tinnitus, where the symptoms are caused by essentially an aural hallucination due to a lack of stimuli. So yeah, the problem might not be over-stimulation but rather a lack of it.

Anyway, it sounds horrible. Hope they find a cure or at least a way to alleviate the symptoms.

Is castration off the table? Would it not help? If not that ... full on gelding?

That sucks dude, but maybe desperate times call for desperate measures.

I had a cat that I took on a car ride once because he was so cool. The car ride over stimulated him and he had seizure. He pissed and shit all over my passenger's side floor. Turns out he was epileptic >> ^Fletch:

The only time (and last time) I took a cat somewhere in my car without a carrier, he disappeared. He seemed a little stressed about the ride, so I figured he was under the seat or something, until the lady behind me honked her horn. I looked in my rearview mirror and my cat was taking a shit on the rear deck right between the speakers.
Use a carrier.

Obama to Announce a Spending Freeze?!

Regardless of what's happening in the short term, I think in the long term it's something to be worried about. China has given indication that it wishes to diversify from US treasury bond holdings numerous times. That in and of itself will have a compounding effect over time. A crisis isn't necessary either, a genuine crisis would be an appreciation followed by an abrupt depreciation brought about by an investor and foreign sovereign fund run as investors lose faith in the federal government being able to pay off the debt. Merely an incremental interest rate rise and appreciation would hurt competitiveness.

Do agree that '2011' is horribly vague, but then it does offer some much needed flexibility as well, while still sending a signal.

While expansionary fiscal policy is necessary during a crisis such as this one, it is equally important to signal to the market that you're not going to either create inflation through over stimulating the economy and you're not going to be forced into a position of printing money to honor your deficit. By promising to reduce expansionary spending in the future, you're getting the best of both worlds.

This is spot on in terms of economic analysis, except for one bit -- there's no indication we're anywhere near the crises you mention, and market indicators actually show that the markets are wanting us to borrow more (interest rates are actually going down).
Based on the actual language Obama used, he basically said the spending freeze would take place after the crisis had ended and when recovery is well on its way. I think that's perfectly reasonable. However, he did put a timeframe on it, but it was just "in 2011," which could easily mean the freeze "starts" on Dec 31st, 2011. Also, as much as I hate to say it, one thing the last year has shown is that Obama sure as hell doesn't have a problem letting a deadline slip if it's necessary (like with health care), or even merely expedient (like with repealing Don't Ask Don't Tell). If unemployment is still not coming down by the end of 2011, he'll need to go into full FDR mode unless he wants to be succeeded by a Republican in 2012, and watch the Democratic party die off completely.
Long story short, I'm not worried. It's a stupid gimmicky way to try and put out an olive branch to conservatives, and while I'd like to think that people are too smart to fall for it, I suspect it will actually resonate with some conservative-leaning independents as a gesture showing that he knows the debt and deficit is a concern, and that cutting spending most certainly is on the table.

I know I'm swimming against the tide here, but it's a good move which should be moderated by the situation in a year's time.

Maddow is correct about economics 101, but she gives no indication she understands anything beyond that here.

You have to remember that the US is in a huge deficit. Perhaps not as large as Japan's relative to GNP, but the largest in absolute terms. The point here is that the size of the US economy is so large world credit supply will at some start to become less and less tolerable of more borrowing.

Higher public or for that matter private debts inevitably raise the risk of borrowing in a country. Higher rates of borrowing encourage investors who are looking for high interest rates on their returns. That appreciates the currency. What an appreciation of the currency would do is make US exports uncompetitive, which essentially destroys the competitive edge of the economy. Together with higher borrowing costs, that would be particularly crippling. Yes as a counter-argument it does make necessary imports such as energy supplies cheaper, but on the whole it's indisputably damaging.

While expansionary fiscal policy is necessary during a crisis such as this one, it is equally important to signal to the market that you're not going to either create inflation through over stimulating the economy and you're not going to be forced into a position of printing money to honor your deficit. By promising to reduce expansionary spending in the future, you're getting the best of both worlds.
