Tuesday afternoon, the Bush administration back peddled from the Terrorist Futures Market idea under fire from Senators from both sides and ridicule from news media. You should know this plan was not a concept or abstract study. It was scheduled to start on Thursday with the registration of investors. It was considered a good project by the Bush administration. Just nuts. I notice today that FoxNews has avoided the topic. Conservative talking heads won't go near this one. Our old friend Admiral Poindexter is head of the Pentagon group that hatched this idea. They will now start work on their next idea, whatever that may be.
