Dorothy,
I saw one of the bond hucksters on CNBC. He said the war bond was really
just a EEE savings bond with a different cover. It was so funny when the
anchor asked him the save spend question. He fumbled for an answer and
finally replied that there was a very small advertising budget.

It won't be... I forget what I read that this was only for 2-3 yrs....
This is just blatent manipulation to force the long end of interst rates
down.. in hopes of bringing rates down on mtge rates which of course is
not tied to long end.. meanwhile.., go figure, after telling consumers
to go spend spend spend to spur economy ...now the govt. is going to
bring out war bonds (so do they want us to spend or buy war bonds?)most
likely in the 10-15 yr range which would be supply on top of all the
corp. supply to mkt... with large reversal after announcement.. as in
other mkts.. we see that manipulation does not change direction of mkt
only delays it....
