Sarkozy (France), Threatens to Walk Out of G20 Summit
President Sarkozy yesterday threatened to wreck the London summit if France’s demands for tougher financial regulation are not met.
France will not accept a G20 that produces a “false success with language that sounds good but contains no commitments”, his advisers said.
How much does that second paragraph sound like President Obama himself? LMAO!
Asked if this meant a possible walk-out, Xavier Musca, Mr Sarkozy’s deputy chief of staff for economic affairs, said: “A basic rule with nuclear deterrence is that you do not say at what point you will use the weapon.”
The French threat dramatically raised the temperature hours before President Obama arrives in London today. If carried through, it would ruin a summit for which Mr Brown and Mr Obama have high ambitions, believing it vital to international recovery.

The liberals have gotten their marching orders because Obama’s approval is slipping!
Russia and China Still Considering a New Currency
Like I continue to say… I don’t think Gold has reached it’s peak yet, but I could be one of those involved in the mania like the analyst says below:
I doubt it will technically reach its peak however, with countries like Russia and China still calling for Gold to be included in the new weighted global currency they want to propose at the G20 summit.
Another One Bites the Dust… Newspapers File for Bankruptcy
The Sun-Times Media Group, owner of the Chicago Sun-Times and numerous suburban newspapers, filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy Friday morning, just a few months after rival newspaper titan Tribune Company did the same thing.
As CBS 2′s Joanie Lum reports, the filing didn’t come as a surprise for many employees at the paper. The only surprise was that the Sun-Times filed for bankruptcy after the Tribune.
On Tuesday morning, the staff of the Sun-Times was in a meeting with the bosses in the Holiday Inn located above their headquarters at 354 N. Orleans St., to learn how bankruptcy protection will affect the newspaper and its readers.
The Chicago Sun-Times returned to it’s liberal-leaning stance a couple years back (in 2007) and the readership has taken a nose-dive. That, plus the fact that almost everything in internet based these days and the current recession, does not help the outdated newsprint as a valid form of media.
Good riddance… learn to start reporting the facts objectively and maybe people will read your paper!
