Several weeks ago, Mr. Rose had an elderly statesman who had served under Senator Barry Goldwater and who was and remains a conservative republican. He called for the impeachment of Bush and also spoke about the Federal Papers. Even though he is a republican he viewed the actions of Bush as establishing a central government in the executive branch thus disregarding the other two branches -- judiciary and legislative. He also called for the impeacxhment of Chaney as well. Can you tell me this gentleman's name? I also hear another conservatiive republican on the Bill Moyer's Report on Public TV (Channel 26) also offer his views on why Bush and Chaney should be impeached.

I use parts of your website in my classes on a regular basis, and this interview will be in all of my classes for the next six months. It is vital for Americans to hear analysis from a true conservative who is non-political.
mr. hormats is brilliant.he makes understanding the cost of war a pleasure rather than a chore.let's hear from him again.
With Don Cheadle as one of your guests I never thought I would enjoy listening to another guest more but I have to say the interview with Robert Hormats stole the show. One of your best.
Actually Peter, most of the money was allocated and spent during the Republican congress. Additionally, the cost estimates were put together by the White House and the Pentagon (See P. Wolfowitz's testimony to congress were he said Iraqis would pay for their own reconstruction). It takes a large leap of logic to dump the costs of the war and fudging of those costs on the Democrats.
Actually Larry, Congressional spending is driven by Congress. I believe if you watch C-SPAN sometime, you might realize the Democrats control Congress and it's the LEGISLATIVE NOT EXECUTIVE branch that controls US spending. But heh, that might be a wee bit too much background work for you to do.
The commercial and financial interdependence that China and the US have between them as a result of China supplying both capital (funding US trade and fiscal deficits) and cheap goods is in a way good for both economic and geo-political stability in the world. The question is what happens if the relations sour between the two nations suddenly sour, especially as China grows increasingly powerful - technologically, economically and militarily, vis a vis the US. Is the imminent rivalry going to be respectful and manageable? Or will it turn more and more contentious and risk transforming inot a 21st century cold war?
What impact does the increae in the value of chineese currency have on the International Interest rate. By way of example, the dollar becomes less attractive and people will be reluctent to continue our massive spending by the current President
