        Looooove the comment about Sarah Palin! LOL Go Julie Go!

        • Andy Swan 2 months ago

          I know this might be a lot to ask, but can ANYONE, including Julie, provide me with a link that backs up this claim that Sarah Palin does not support evolution or the teaching of evolution?

          I’m really trying to find this….and while a lot of people seem quite willing to make these little verbal jabs, I haven’t yet found anyone willing to back them up with facts.

          Thanks!

            It’s not that she doesn’t support evolution, she just supports the teaching of creationism alongside evolution…in a science class. Many people think that creationism is a Christian idea and thus should be left in the church. (No one’s advocating that the Scientologists’ version of creation be taught in schools.)

            Here’s the quote, from http://www.boston.com/news/local/articles_of_faith/2008/08/sarah_palin_on.html

            “Teach both. You know, don’t be afraid of information….Healthy debate is so important and it’s so valuable in our schools. I am a proponent of teaching both. And you know, I say this too as the daughter of a science teacher. Growing up with being so privileged and blessed to be given a lot of information on, on both sides of the subject — creationism and evolution. It’s been a healthy foundation for me. But don’t be afraid of information and let kids debate both sides.”

              I still don’t see ANY evidence AT ALL that Palin has dismissed evolution or doesn’t see it as legitimate science.

              I also see NO evidence AT ALL that Palin has pushed for, advocated or even CONSIDERED advocating that Creationism being taught in schools. (I do see evidence that she didn’t want the school silencing creation vs evolution debate)

              No evidence whatsoever. Although apparently it is fashionable to say so anyway….with a smirk :)

        no bailot.. let it burn… I don’t care about loosing money, but some people were *really* reckless..

        • S. Ruehle One month ago

          I totally agree with you.

          Burning more good money in an effort to limit the losses is imho not the right approach.

          BRILLIANT interviews and a VERY solid piece Julie!

          Nothing cuts to the quick like the views of the public that is effected by this crisis - you don’t get this insight from CNBC or the “Big 3″ networks nightly news - WELL DONE!

          I half expected to hear thuds and see brokers going SPLAT on the pavement but I TOTALLY agree the woman who said now is the time to buy during the clearance sale and I think yesterday showed that SEVERAL agree as well - now if I just had MONEY to spend on investing instead of gas, food, mortgage (mine is SOLID!) and COLA (not Coke or Pepsi)!

                  your comment /Jeff Garlick,
                  I read your comments daily and wonder whether you are watching the same episodes as me. How could you call this “Brilliant?” Are you just infatuated with Julie? These were very simple, very basic questions asked of a few people on the streets. Nothing earth shattering, nothing surprising either. I realize I have been very critical of this show, and have been waiting for improvements, but I believe the format is set. And while it obviously works for you, it doesn’t work for me. For me, there is never any substance - no detail, no insight, so real value. I feel the past format and presentation were much better and informational. Julie spends more time attempting to be funny, but never seems to have the knowledge to truly relate any of the stories in an effective way.
                  Honestly, what is it you see that perhaps I keep missing? I want to like this show, but am disappointed daily.

                  • Jeff Garlick 2 months ago

                    John,

                    I don’t think a show has to be “earth shattering” or surprising to be great! While all the networks put their spin on the economy and who’s to blame, I found the idea of doing a “streeter” with those most effected AND responsible for the crisis to be brilliant! It doesn’t have to be Shakespeare to be great!

                    Julie and I are VERY casual friends online and I feel lucky and privileged to be able to count her as one - if she’s not your idea of talented and entertaining then I wonder what show your watching? Difference of opinion is what makes this country great - I find a GREAT deal of substance and knowledge and if you think “Wallstrip” has a different format than it did when Lindsay was hosting, you CLEARLY didn’t watch it much when she hosted because she was even MORE irreverent and comical than Julie - and I LOVED the show then as well!

                    I’m sorry that you don’t see the value, production quality and talent involved in creating a daily MUST WATCH! Plenty of people watch this daily and enjoy it! I commend you for at least giving it a try before you criticized it but I have to disagree.

                    Keep doing what you’re doing Julie and Howard, the show has NEVER been better!

                    If I want gloom and doom, I’ll watch Bloomberg news or CNBC!

                        Bailout? Rescue? Who is going to rescue me? Or you? A few people are going to make huge amounts of money on this deal and we are going to foot the bill. If there isn’t any money, then why are so many healthy banks able to buy the healthy parts of the failing banks? And how is it that Warren is able to buy whatever he wants? There is money to lend and to borrow. NOBODY has actually said what our current M1 is right now. We know how many barrels of oil we have. Nice glut.

                          John, Jon, John….It IS what it IS!!!

                          As for teaching “both”…NO!!!!!! Teach the science in the school..G-d in the home!

                          The so called ‘jabs’ on Ms. Pallin are real/ what? is she toooo sensitive for the big time network?..Then she should stay in Alaska!..Now give me the scoop, did she really have an affair??

                          The street interviews are the BEST times at Wall Strip!!!!

                            like the street interviews. want to see some more of them.
                            on another note, nobody should be surprised that this is happening; it’s the american way: unregulated business causes a financial crisis, big business buys everyone out, we all lose, and jp morgan chase makes a lot of money.

                                Darwin did come up with the of Natural Selection. Read some history.

                                I do agree that companies should be allowed to go out of business. Otherwise, we end up with an economic mess like Japan.

                                  RALPH NADER WAS AGAINST THIS BAILOUT!
                                  and as youcan see it’s not working, and it’s not going to work - becasue it does not address the core problem…
                                  OBAMA and McCAIN voted FOR IT ! They had to, The Corporate paymaster had a gun to their heads… adn they fear the corporation MORE than betraying the People of the United States.

                                  NADER STAND WITH WE THE PEOPLE (Americans are smarter than the Corporations think…) We Need to VOTE NADER in 2008 and VOTE the corporate elite OUT!!!!!!!!!!!

                                        The first rule of business is Supply and Demand…

                                        I guess it’s human nature to point the finger at someone else for your problems… As a Trader, I honestly think we are all in this together (Politician, Banker, Investor, Consumer)

                                        Politicians allow loose regulations on the Banks, the Banks then in-return accumulated leverage so they can provide everyone with Credit… Now the same people who benefited (homes,auto,shopping) from all this lavish spending want to cry about not having money?
