Blah!

Detroit can't do anything right, not even a damn marathon.

We can all rest easy today. They are going to the 'Baloon People' with a crime, but we still have no arrests on the Economic illegal behavior or the criminals that shifted the US treasury to corporations.

Looks like we may get up to 40 degrees today, Gore is right!

They had s special on last night about the events immediately following the death of JFK. LBJ and Bobbie were 2 pieces of work.

We still live in dollar-centric world where paper claims on wealth are arbitrarily increased at will by a handful of unelected officials at the Federal Reserve. It's a process which relies more on Gutenberg than moral authority.

World leaders and central bankers mutter about Fed policies, but do nothing. There's been no resistance to the secrecy, the bailouts or the money printing. The bottom line is that the people in power really don't want change. They just want to make speeches and blame America. It's all just empty posturing.

What doomsayers are calling a "crash" is really just part of the Fed's plan.

The rest of the world should have chucked the present system more than a year ago when Lehman Bros. collapsed. But they didn't, because they were afraid to face their own future without holding onto Uncle Sam's hand. If they really wanted to stand on their own two feet, they'd pile their Treasuries and greenbacks in a heap and set them ablaze. That's what freedom looks like.

The reserve currency system creates a de facto international currency which elevates one country above all others giving it special access to credit and implicit control over the global economic system. It inevitably leads to exploitation, abuse of power and systemic instability.

Foriegners should have been crushed the dollar when the opportunity presented itself. Now, the window has closed and it's back to business as usual.

Excerpted from Mike Whitney @ Counterpunch

I can't believe I got banned, and for 21 days! WTF? And I would have lots of things to say about it too if the fat cats over in Drudgeland Uber Alles would let my voice be heard, but they won't so I remain silent and discontent. Instead, you will be forced to use your imaginations to try and ponder the depths of reality they will not allow me to reveal.

Banned from where?

From here, the Drudge Retort! For 21 days.

Most people's sex toys are first intended as funny gifts, so be choosy when buying a funny gift because the recipient will likely fuck it.

How can you post if you are banned? Did you say something impolite about the "prophet?" Just call Christians anything you want and rcade will never ban you again. Some hate speech is not hate speech in his Orwellian world.

I'm not posting BECAUSE I am banned. You must be imagining what I WOULD be saying. Perhaps medical professional could be of service.

See, I would never be that rude without it being in response, so the can't be me posting. I got banned for 21 days.

Does anyone else find the following comment directed at danni to be as funny as I do?

I flush shit smarter than you all the time. Do you even read half the shit you write? They give you a chance to preview your comments before you post them. Are you aware of this?

GOP Brand Has Declined Since Obama Took Office, According To New Polling Data

The results should come at some relief to those Democrats who are despondently self-assured of massive losses in the 2010 election (though, to be sure, national polls aren't always predictive of individual contests). There may be a large pool of independent or undecided voters waiting to be swayed in one party direction or another. But they aren't trending Republican. If anything, they are staying away.

I can't answer you Nanc; I am banned. If you see my posting here, perhaps an increase of medication is in order.

101 - sad but truly funny - FF!

#17 | Posted by kanrei - so I may need four instead of three aspirin to read your non-posts?

I have "non-posts" exactly like I don't have "posts."

101 is my favorite rcade character!

#20 | Posted by kanrei - you are FINALLY beginning to make a little sense to me...YIKES!

Whats up with the fake press release about the chamber of commerce backing cap and trade and a carbon tax? Then the media went wild with reporting it. How bad is the MSM, they never check anything. Where are the days of investigation, then reporting?

I can't make sense because, in the words of Jon S Hall, sense is something that can't be made, but must be sensed and I for one am incensed by all this complacency.

I flush shit smarter than you all the time.

Dow 10,000: Stocks rise again
Wall Street recharges the rally as investors gear up for a big week for corporate results. Apple is due after the close.

NEW YORK (CNNMoney.com) -- Stocks rallied Monday, with the Dow hitting its highest level in over a year, driven by a rally in industrial and commodity shares and optimism about the quarterly reporting period.

The Dow Jones industrial average (INDU) rose 105 points, or 1%, with roughly 2-1/2 hours left in the session. The Dow rose as high as 10,109.12, the highest level during a session since Oct. 7, 2008.

The S&P 500 (SPX) index gained 10 points, or 1%, and the Nasdaq composite (COMP) advanced 18 points, or 0.9%.

"This is a liquidity driven rally and the market is probably going to keep moving higher over the next few weeks," said Tyler Vernon, chief investment officer at Biltmore Capital.

"People are feeling optimistic," he said. "They're getting sick of getting zero percent returns on money market accounts and are wanting to take on more risk."

Government unveils new mortgage help

The Obama administration is unveiling a new program to provide support to state and local housing agencies to provide help to thousands of home buyers and renters.

The administration said the new program would help to support low mortgage rates and expand resources for low and middle income borrowers who want to buy or rent a home.

Isn't that how we got into this mess in the first place - the government making it easy for people to get loans they should not be getting.

If you can't afford a freaking house without some sort of handout then you should be renting.

Damn, I walked into that one.
