Why So Angry About Healthcare?

People are angry with Obama's attempt to change all before him in six months.That is those issues not to his undeniable socialist liking.

The man is a runaway train on Federal interference in all we do.

Do we need a Health Care program ? Most certainly if one is not covered by an existing responsible health care provider.

None are reliable or responsible ?

Excuse me Mr.President, then.Now let's talk about Social Engineering shall we ?

A Fresh Look at Shipping Company Stocks

New to the shippers.......I was simply looking for high yield and
stumbled on this group.Long NAT and was near pushing button for
FRO when the excrement hit the HVAC.
In normal Market the group has outstanding yields, in this mess
yields must be the highest you may ever get.

Good fortune to all and "don't shoot until you see the white of
their eyes !"

Strong Fundamentals and Oil Ties Make Transocean a Great Long-Term Buy

I did not realize that the backlog of RIG was that huge (40BB)
which only adds to the real value.

RIG is not alone as a pummeled 5 * equity...(See US Steel for
another) which gives the investor one heck of an opportunity
to add some names where before the price was an obstacle
to some.

I would hasten to add that I have averaged down on RIG, a
tactic that over the years has cost the investor too much
in too many instances.Often this occured when a party
"fell in love" with a stock while that emotion is simply a
Venus Fly Trap waiting to make those folks a lot poorer.

The simple fundamentals of RIG make it a compelling buy
at a much higher price.Now unless this episodic event
wherein people simply bail out despite the rewriting of
P:E etc.,etc.

Not Off the RIMM - Cramer's Lightning Round (9/3/08)

Indeed.........ZAKS is good at this time and any other.

I don't understand something. Cramer gets killed daily (and by the same posters is not unusual)
but these bashers hang on his every word and I would bet that in ordinary times they have made
money with the guy.

All he is doing, if you listen, is put you on a track wherein you do your own due diligence,
remind you not to buy that day,while having the balls to show up every night.

I would love to see these bashers come up with content five nights a week,have the memory
he has,and right or wrong offer ideas.

Hey fellas !!!!!!!!!!!!! Do something else with your time.

Peak Oil Stocks for the Future

I think, from your tone, that a "place" to drill would never meet your acceptance.

And you proclaim that the saltwater flat is the only site !

The time to begin drilling was many yesterdays........ and while we drill we continue
the quest for the alternatives.

No need to ask how you feel about reactor production is there ?

Smarten up and don't get too wrapped up with Hollywood portrayals.

What's Ailing Google's Stock Price?

Are there not major issues with "Chrome" with regard to
the ability of hackers to access ?

Not a retorical question if the technocrats I have to depend on
are right.

In fact, I believe the issue of Chrome v Hackers is within the
posts of Seeking Alpha.........

I made money with GOOG and would love to re-enter, however,
GOOG's own evolution has made it a tough study for the

Best to all who contribute here.

The Rebound List - Cramer's Mad Money (8/26/08)

In all due respect to the "commentators" thus far, what Cramer forgot
you may never know.

When you consider the amount of stocks, sectors, and situations
that he (Cramer) speaks of each day,week,year,(and most of what
we see "on the fly") he is an amazing pro.
Sure, he gets them way wrong at times but he does not forget them.
In Cramer speak he will always say........"I own it" on wrong calls.

Me ? I can't take him five nights a week but while rarely acting on
his direction, I always take him serious.

It's not the guy who in this raggedy market who says he likes
tech and health care.They are a dime a dozen.

You want to see jerks at work ? Watch CNBC for the better part of
the day and be it head analyst to fund manager etc. it's the same
old stuff.I would allow Cramer to handle some money but never
the regular CNBC line-up of survivor guests.

I sincerely hope you weather this market and go cash or be ready
to exploit these beat up prices.I certaily don't want to say, "Hey !
I could have had ....@ X per share last year."

Energy Stocks Are Too Cheap to Ignore - Barron's

CPST1

And I would hope the lessened use of gasoline would continue.

Now however, we are entering the crack to Home Heating # 2.

My first thought is a pipedream as usage of gasoline and diesel
will return to numbers more indicitive of seasonal use.Sure,
less gasoline in the winter and increasing demand as vacation
time approaches next spring.......people will get tired of "staycations",
indusrial demand here and offshore will not diminish,and while
other factors helped lead to this spring and summer's rise
(hedging for one) crude will find a real level....no bubble
environment......and off we go.

I don't give a damn about consensus this arena is one for common
sense.As in that light some will be right some wrong.

I tend to favor the ETFs but in any case the P:Es out there are
preposterous and as such I must have oil in any balanced
portfolio.

Good trading or in the case of oil good buy and hold...wow
what yields !!!!!!!!!
