The Trouble with Clean Coal

The current CO2 frenzy it a load of crap served by no-nothings like Al Gore and others that seek to profit from this BS or crash the US economy or both. There is zero hard evidence of any connection between man-made CO2 levels and any climate changes either up or down. Someday people will look back at this pathetic herd mentality with mirth.

Cash: An Embarrassment of Riches

This market upturn is just another bubble blown by the fed and Obama's captive banks trading for their own accounts using taxpayer money. When it pops, and it will, the carnage will be bad. The messes underlying the financial meltdown have not been corrected and the chickens will come home to roost with a vengence.

Insiders Continue to Sell, Sell, Sell

When you are an ass you do not have to try to be one obviously.

Is This U.S. Dollar Move the Real Thing?

Your enthusiastic endorsement of quantitative easing and high inflation shows your total lack of concern for the disasterous effects these insidious policies will have on millions of innocent americans of all ages and wealth levels. Have you no shame sir?

Time to Make the Fed Accountable for Its Actions

Surely we need to know the bottomline about the shenanigans at the Fed. This is especially true of those people who are still starstruck by the purveyor of hope and who undoubtedly "can't handle the truth."

GMAC and Its Impact on Ford

Obama has made it patriotic to buy Ford and not to buy GM or Chrysler. Why would any real American help to prop-up UAW welfare programs?

Foreign Exchange Markets Finally Believe the Fed's Resolve

Soon it will just be QE only and the dollar collapse event horizon will be looming.

Fed Minutes: Some Signs of Improvement

Who really cares about these criminals' opinion of the economy that they are busy destroying for the benefit of their keepers?

The Chrysler Bondholders' Enviable Deal

This cramdown of the private, non-TARP creditors of Chrysler has effectively cutoff any further such funding for unionized companies. If the President is willing to overturn well established contract law to benefit his political cronies then why take the risk in the future? Nice work Barrack!

The Economy: Optimism vs. Fact

Incessent airhead drivel is hardly "rebuttal with a bullish slant" thus your astronomical negatives.

Dramatic Decline in Online Ad Growth

This is just another "brown shoot" that accurately reflects what is happening in the economy once you break through the froth of optimistic spin and massaged goverment data. My level of concern is already pegged at extreme.

So What's a Year Worth? U.S. Government Net Liabilities

Bush sacrificed the conservative core value of small government and fiscal responsibility on the twin altar of the Iraq war. He agree to all other spending as long as got his blood money. This started us on our current path to financial collapse and also destroyed the Republican party because they acquiesced.

It Still Feels Like 1975, Buffett's Actions Included

I think Warren Buffett has become a contrarian indicator. He has been talking up Wells Fargo while quietly increasing his stake. Does anyone else that has actually examined the state of its portfolio really think it is one is a winner in the foreseeable future?

Even a broken clock is right twice a day so maybe Wells will actually be higher at some point in the next 10 years but so what? There are much better places to invest that are not so subject to a capricious government and to huge, negative, underlying economic forces currently at work.

There Won't Be a Recovery

The options were: 1. do nothing to "fix" the economy meaning follow the laws and let institutions fail and go their bankruptcy; 2. Do things most likely to lead to a real recovery as some point such as lowering taxes across the board or 3. Do lots of radical things to the economy, including capriciously favoring unions over bond holders in bankrupcty, handing out money to politically favored banks, etc, run up gigantic deficits and print a mountain of money.

Obama choose door number 3 and turned a crisis into a catastrophy.

CASH FOR CLUNKERS - NEXT CASH FOR COWS

How about cash for liberals who volunteer to become soilent green?
