There is as natural a cycle to economies as there is to life and death in general. Bull market always followed by bear, bear followed by dumping recent memory with, "This could last forever!" Nothing lasts forever. We all know that in hard times but not so much

You know I'm getting sick of the whiners picking on old people for their own gullibility in believing Ronald Regan and trickle down were the greatest thing since sliced bread. They weren't. We were living on borrowed money and with the open regulations getting passed it allowed more swindlers to come to the party. Why wouldn't we have gotten screwed? It was, after all, an orgy. Now you younger

I've managed to catch a good bit of Campaign 2012 (which I just mistyped as 1012. Serendipitous or Freudian slip?) Right now Herman Cain is talking about "getting our own oil!" Does he know that that oil belongs to someone who is not "us" ? The people who drill for it have a right to sell it to anyone they please and they do. And it doesn't help the price at the pump?

It has come to my attention that an entire generation of my fellow Americans have grown up and are being born under the greatest scam machine since Himmler--much greater than Himmler perhaps since those duped live in the greatest country in the world.

Christian Landmark Tree Cut Down

Legend has it that the rare thorn tree on a hill in southern England had ties to the earliest days of Christianity, and pilgrims often left offerings at its base. In more recent times, local children honored its current incarnation each year by cutting sprigs to place on Queen Elizabeth II's Christmas dining table. Now British police want to know who sawed the limbs off the Glastonbury Holy
