    German bail out

    Will the German people resent us if their government show poor unfortunate Ireland an magnanimous gesture by bailing us out? Can this happen, and is Cowen's government becoming complacent because they believe that it will if our fiscal woes become unmanageable?

    Could this make other Europeans resent us because we blew the boom?

    Omg they are bailing out europe daily, I think the irish should start showing some respect.
    And stop kissing the uk ass.
    Still, even as the investor consensus ravages the euro, it's worth remembering that the same herd instinct not long ago was pronouncing last rites for the dollar. Last year, as China's central bank chief called for a new global currency and Russian central bankers dumped greenbacks to buy euros, many saw the dollar's decline as inevitable. Now, the dollar is riding high, and the euro looks bedraggled.
