    Russian collapse coming?

    About 5% of Hawaii wants independence. They are just vocal about it. Most of them also want racial based citizenship. Its seriously fucked up. I am 6th generation kamaaina, so I know of which I speak. I say give em Molokai.

    Internet Rumor: Biden will drop out, Hillary in.

    You Clinton lovers are almost as bad as SouthAmaerica insisting Al Gore was going to be the nominee WAY after it became obvious that he was not. If Biden dropped out it would be a disaster as it would show the Dems have no clue what they are doing. It is also very clear BO does not want...

    what crude is cnbc quoting?

    There is a long for every short, but the longs just refused to cover until the price spiked higher. And of course there were shorts just firing away with market orders all day long to get the hell out. This creates a ton of buying pressure overall even though it is true that the longs had to...

    Bush in with a bust and out with a meltdown

    This doesn't have anything to do with either bust. Dot.com was a mega bubble based on companies not even making money. Current one is due to easy money + easy credit. The debt isn't the cause of either. BTW, Clinton didn't become a balanced budget fan until Newt and company swept congress in...

    Bush in with a bust and out with a meltdown

    True. Don't get me started on stats. Its a silly argument even if it was under Bush. He is handed a mega bubble based on stocks which for the most part weren't even making money. This bust was going to happen no matter what. This current melt down was inevitable also. Rates way too low...

    Bush in with a bust and out with a meltdown

    Look at a chart of NQ. Says it all. BTW, I was a full time trader then. It was March 2000. You do know that ANYONE can make those Wiki posts don't you?

    Bush in with a bust and out with a meltdown

    I'm not a Bush fan, but at least get your facts straight. Dot.com bust happened under Clinton, which is a non issue anyway because it was a mega bubble waiting to happen. I hate when people blame Presidents for things totally out of their control. The meltdown isn't the fault of the President...

    What the US Government should do next:

    Although I agree with his small gov, strong States stance, Paul practically wants to eliminate the national Gov. Example? complete elimination of the CIA. Sorry, but that is WAY too far out there for myself and obviously 95% of all Americans. The guy got 5% for a reason.

    What the US Government should do next:

    What planet are you from? Obama wants to dramatically increase taxes and increase the size of government. He even ADMITS it. The guy wants to increase cap gains to up to 28%. Can't think of anything worse for the economy, not to mention the fact that it will bring in less revenue. This has...

    What the US Government should do next:

    I don't like either one of em. I would support Paul if he wasn't such a wack job. Of the rational guys running, I preferred Romney due to his extreme success in business and cleaning up that winter Olympic mess. IF I vote at all (may just boycott both choices), I will probably hold my nose...

    What the US Government should do next:

    definitions aside, let the markets take care of things quick and final. the current system encourages risky behavior as the corps know they will get a bail out. it also just extends the shit. I say clean it out. painful as hell now, but will get the econ going with a clean slate more or less.

    What the US Government should do next:

    Do nothing. Let markets take care of everything quick and painful. Clean out the shit so we can get going again. This is ridiculous, not to mention socialist.

    Senate passes $612 bln defense spending bill

    Congress authorizes spending. Congress is democrat dominated. Blame Bush all you want, but congress is equally culpable. I'm not saying Bush isn't an idiot for proposing this. I am saying they are all idiots for allowing this much spending.

    have you guys ever tried to reply to Lou Dobs?

    why is the media so left?

    Gring, We know you are a bright guy. Ever thought of speaking down to us? What the hell did that mean in one sentence? You and SA are similar in that you feel the need to prove your use of the language. Almost everyone here has at least a BS. We speak blue collar cause its easy and...

    why is the media so left?

    OK I am expecting left folk are going to haze me. (I am Libertarian), but this needs to be said. Why is the media soooooo far to the left? Kinda weird.

    Obama More Qualified Than Palin AND McCain

    Specifics? who gives a fuck how many people watch? Exactly. what is he going to do? Before you call me a republican, I ask the same of them. I hate all of them. States rights, third party.
