too old

More foreclosure stories: Neighbors surprised to see a Wells Fargo (WFC) executive using an oceanfront home, lost by a couple duped by Bernard Madoff, for weekends and eye-catching parties - and an agent saying that the bank refused to show the house to interested buyers.

I think I saw a comment that there was an agreement with the bankrupt owner to not show the house for a specified period of time. But that does not excuse the occupancy by the lady banker.

Thursday Outlook: Commodities, Global Markets

To Dave: I don't consider left wing liberals to be "Rational People". Best example is a prior Vice President.

A Capitalist's Letter to President Obama

One respondent indicated Obama will "save" us just as FDR did. How much longer before people realize that WW II is what brought us out of the depression. FDR's policies other than getting us into the war were part of the problem extending the depression.

Chrysler's Bankruptcy: Historic Changes for Markets?

I agree with Perry B that comments should continue to be made but they should be based on fact and reason not the whitewash that surrounds anything written by the Obamaites.

Invest in Gold Miners, Silver Miners, or Both?

I agree with this line of thinking but since I am "too Old" I am turning over my portfolio to ZACKS for management and know they will sell my holdings in ABX, AEM, SLW, SSRI, SLV, GDX, AUY, EGO, IAG, PAAS, and AZK. I will continue to hold physical gold and silver.

The Clearest Economic View

I wonder if Krugman reads this tomorrow if he could explain what he really meant. Conceptwizardwizard and Larry House bot added more significant information and with clarity.

Monday, November 24: Week in Review

People that praise Clinton seem to forget that it was the Republican congress headed by Newt Gingrich that forced Clinton to sign bills that democrats didn't like. Clinton rates as an above average President and much of that high rating is directly due to Newt. Clinton claims as his greatest achievement the signing of the "Welfare to Work" bill that he vetoed 2 or 3 times before he finally signed it.

Let's Clarify "The Worst Economy Since...." Debate

Barack Obama made a Joe Biden type statement in his acceptance speech on 11-4-08 something to the effect that we have the worst economy in a century. I wanted to shout at him that he should restudy the 30s which are within the last century. I have yet to see anyone recognize his misspeak.

Renewable Energy Tax Credits Approved By Senate

rhj123 has it exactly right. Use your own term limits even though congress will never pass it on themselves.

Who Is For and Against the $700 Billion Bailout?

Squashnut saying this would end the career of several senators should realize that the senate should not be considered a career. Our constitution was written to have citizen legislators - not career politicians.
I will not vote for anyone that has served 12 or more years in a given office. TERM LIMITS should be a must.

Obama Is Bad for the Economy - Barron's

Those of you who praise clinton for his leaving the country with good economic conditions should really realize that he is considered a good president because Gingrich forced him to sign good legislation. Clinton once remarked that he considered his greatest achievement was to sign the "Right to Work" bill. He vetoed it two or three times before Gingrich again saw that it got to him again and he finally signed it.
