around the world as we are. I wonder who they are blaming their situation on.

There always seems to be a so called knowledge with convenient commentary about how the rest of the world feels about us here in America, well what do they say about their own situation.

I suspect there isn't much said to be communicated by the same folks as it has no implied political ramification.

One could also conclude the broad impact of the financial/credit squeeze in other countries where there is no 2 party system.....that it is not a party specific issue any where in the world. Now that certainly wouldn't play very well here in Partisan Blameland, USA!!!!!!

One advantage the other countries have over the USA hands down....they don't have to deal with a Congress and a Senate.....so it doesn't take them forever to do the obvious....

Billie - I would bet they are blaming their woes on us and our stock market decline.

We are experiencing an economic downturn here in Canada. And you're right, the Canadian government is blaming it on the U.S. economy!

Of course, being neighbours, our country's economies are closely intertwined. However our Banks are heavily regulated so our recession will be less severe.
