Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson voiced support for a strong dollar
on Tuesday and said America "must welcome competition, not run away
from it" if the country wants to maintain a competitive advantage.
...

"America" in general, sure. But *heaven forbid* the Federal Reserve 
having
anything even remotely *resembling* competition. Mr. Paulson then claims
(apparently with a straight face) "that currency values should be 
determined
in open and competitive markets in response to underlying fundamentals."
<snicker -- just like what happened with both Citi & LTCM, eh 
Henry??!?> ;)

These guys all should look into comedy careers, his material's wasted 
here.
