i have my accounts and my wife's accounts with etrade. i get in with password
and rsa time code device. i can get into mine, or my wife's account, but not
both at once. since the passcode for her account seems to be about twenty
digits or so, it is a real pain to log out and log back in.
Use something like password safe (http://passwordsafe.sourceforge.net/) to
store your password and copy/paste the username and password to log on.

radical right that has been in charge have made us so weak.
Um, you must know of a different radical right than I do. The
radical right I know would have slashed spending at the federal level,
slashed or outright eliminated the income tax, never would have
entered Iraq, would be out of Afghanistan by now, and would probably
have a dollar so strong
That's right!
It might be better to invest in euros in a european company or fund
right now.

It would be better to put my dough in a mattress while spending 3% of my

While I don't have personal experience with these with regard to what
you want to do, here are a few that are used:
scottrade.com
marketwatch.com under tools and research

and straight forward a tool for your needs that there is.
I like spreadsheets. Google Spreadsheets has a function for retrieving
