Yeah, whatever you hear from a politician or policy puppet automatically assume the opposite is true until proven otherwise.

You are probably right. I hate having to stick up for the intelligence of the average American anyway. As long as they can feed their family from the McDonalds $1 menu they probably won't know the difference. Let them wallow in ignorance if they please as long as they want. As long as I can get...

Believe me, when the shit hits the fan in a few years from all of this, the mass public will finally wake up. They will have no choice because this is going to end ugly in my opinion. I just want one good counter rally in the dollar this year. Life outside USA is starting to look real attractive...

It's a midget dressed up like a gnome. Looks like about the size of the guy who played Mini-Me in Austin Powers. Real gnomes live in Switzerland and rarely come out of their underground vaults.

I would not recommend IB for forex especially with small starting account sizes. You would be using their IDEAL platform for positions under $25,000 and it is not very liquid at all. If you are just interested in forex you should look at another broker than IB. I have used FXCM in the past and...

If it was just simply prostitution he got caught on I would agree. It would only be a misdemeanor and he could survive. However, they got him on several other charges that are far more serious than the underlying sex charge. He is looking at money laundering related charges including...

Well, if you blinked you would have missed that bounce in the dollar. I guess people finally realized that Bernanke's bailout plan is bearish for the dollar after all. Go figure.

We would all be better traders if we had the power to print money at will and especially at times when things started to look really bad. Seems like a moot point doesn't it?

If by "doing his job" you mean trashing the dollar and driving up inflation then I agree completely with you.

Yeah, the one thing you want from your puppets is for them to do what they are told and not ask any questions. Bernanke is doing a fine job so far in that regard...

I think they gave it to this guy:

It's not. Quit believing in fairy tales.

Is anyone surprised at this b.s. ? Totally expected from this Fed. Keep those helicopters humming Ben. What else can they do at this point? :p

Nope. I will play either side short term but being short is definitely riskier long term at this point.

If you read really far into the complaint there are some suggestions that Spitz (Client-9) was known for asking the girls for stuff that was "not safe". :eek: http://www.thesmokinggun.com/archive/years/2008/0310082spitzer1.html

See my earlier comments on Spitzer if you wonder about that. I think he is a huge hypocrite and will suffer a big hit to his credibility. I don't think he will resign but my response to "Steamroller" Spitzer getting caught with his hand in the cookie jar is LMAO. I was never a fan. :p

And? I'm not for or against gay issues and could care less either way. I do care about hypocritical bible thumping politicians who think they have the right to legislate their "values" and morality from Washington D.C. That's all.

Republicans could only wish their scandals just involved heterosexual prostitution rings. Unfortunately, theirs have been a bit more lurid lately. Larry Craig, Ted Haggard, Mark Foley, Bob Allen come to mind just in the last couple of years. Looks like a good group of family values Republicans...

Nah...I'm sure no one will care, especially since he ran on a platform to clean up ethics in Albany and when he was AG acting like a do-good crusader. Yeah right...he will definitely take a hit for this. Probably not enough to resign but the damage is done.
