CNN is trying to stay in the middle but their approach and their newscasters are a bit staid. Basically 10 minutes or so of the news whether it is CNN, BBC etc. whets my interest and if I want in depth stuff I go online.

Nothing really wrong in principle to look at all sides before a decision. There are some personality types however that have a hard time making a decision and the wait seems endless. Obama may fit in to this personality type. He needs to step up and voice it soon.

Military hardware and economic growth are only few things that factor into a powerhouse country. China woefully lags in world name brands that get people excited and giving freedom of choice for all. Happy 60th but lopsided. Let's see what happens.

Nice to have variety of choices. Depends on mood of day or time element. I may stop for a cheeseburger or large fries. Others days, fast food is disgusting and I head for a vegetarian restaurant. On the business side, such fast food stores do employ people and a check is always useful.
