"I will argue that the most serious threat to the US is not someone hiding in a cave in Afghanistan or Pakistan, but our own fiscal irresponsibility."
Quote by David Walker, Comptroller General of the US, on CBS News in July 2007.
"if you don't read the newspaper, you are uniformed. If you do read the newspaper, you are misinformed". (Mark Twain)
