Toddler Property Laws........
If I like it, it's mine.
If it's in my hands, it's mine.
If I can take it from you, it's mine.
If I had it a week ago, it's mine.
If it's mine, it must never appear to be yours in any way.
If I'm doing or building something, all the pieces are mine.
If it looks just like mine, it's mine.
If I think it's mine, it's mine.
If it it's near me, it's mine.
If it's broccoli, it's yours.
They have it all figured out.

In your pocket?............from Rico
"Is that a stack of Federal Reserve Notes in your pocket, or are you just glad to see me?"
- Benyamin Bernanke
The US Dollar was formally devalued by forty-percent in 1933.
Today, what you are seeing (er....NOT seeing, thanks to the MSM and the FED) is the same thing...just more gradually, and informally. So far.
The dust has not yet settled.
DARK ENERGY
STORMBRINGER to NASA:
You can't break the laws of physics unless you're in a Disney movie.
STORMBRINGER to Thomas Friedman:
You are a typical liberal with a typical liberal loser attitude.

Round 1: The Conservative Blogger Debate -- The War On Terror!
Sponsored by a group of very fine blogs, Motorcitytimes and Makes My Brain Itch take the initiative on Round 1 of Conservative Debate and pose the following question to Russ, of That's Right, with The Classical Liberal being asked to Rebut:
One of the conservative arguments against the current prosecution on the war on terrorism is the fact that, as conservatives, we should not be involved in nation building In Iraq and Afghanistan.
Please explain you position with respect to the fact that after our post WWII reconstruction efforts , Germany and Japan have become our 4th and 5th largest trading partners. The exchange of goods accounts for 10.6% of all of the United States foreign trade.To put this in perspective, China accounts for 12.0% of all U.S. foreign trade (2008 numbers).
Here is Russ's Response; here is CL's Rebuttal.
Wyblog is following the debate, as are Mind-Numbed Robot and Washington Reb. Stay tuned for updates and commentary!
Plus, The Boob War takes a fortuitous turn!

French President Outraged Over Dubai
"Of all of the reactions regarding the al-Mabhouh elimination, the most infuriating thing is concealed in the response of Nicolas Sarkozy, who defined the terrorist's elimination as murder."

Happy Anniversary!................from Rico
Happy Anniversary!
Yes, Mar 2010 is the Anniversary of Mar 2008 when our system took a big 'dump' on all of us!
- It's been 'dumping' ever since!
Let's see...
- 10 million unemployed
- $11 trillion 'lost' in household net worth
- $8 trillion in real estate losses
- 3 million foreclosures
- the end of the "Big 3" automakers (only FORD is left standing)
- dozens of states (and cities and towns) bankrupt....don't get me started on FDIC
And Dear Reader Buraq has put us ALL hugely in debt.
Great. Wonderful. Super.
So! How's that "hopey-changey" shit working out for YOU?
WTF!!!! Serious Duck Blind..........
1st level hides 4 boats underneath and has room for 2 hunters and 2 dog doors.
2nd level has a full kitchen with fridge, 2 stoves,
electricity for lights, living room with 2 couches and satellite, TV,
theater seats around the "porch of the blind" to shoot 14 guys comfortably
side porch has a running toilet
stainless steel grill for cooking whole ribeyes for lunch.
all the mojos and mallard machines are hard wired to car batteries.
3rd level is the "crows nest" with room for 3
It's about 25' up in the trees and most of the time you are cutting down on the ducks

Long year at Bernie's ahead.............from Rico
"Weekend at Bernies" (the movie) was funny, considering Bernie was dead the entire film.
The year ahead (we can 'wish' and 'hopey-changey' it would only be a weekend with a dead guy) will be spent with a dead FDIC.
Bernie Madoff would be so proud of this Ponzi scam! The FDIC with a fund of $20.8 billion is "insuring" $5.3 trillion in actual bank deposits. Gee, I feel safer now.
- It's game over if enough people demand their cash deposits be returned to them...there isn't enough money to 'spread around.'
At least Vikram's customers at Citi won't have to worry about it. Not after Citi circulated their memo to depositors saying they "may" have to wait a week for their on-demand cash deposits to be redeemed.
Think about it. On demand. Cash on deposit. That really ought to make you not walk away...but run-like-hell away from Citi.
