Government defined - incompetent, unreliable, untrustworthy..........from Rico
The Bloomberg CPI Chart from 1950-2010 is INFLATION, the inflation that the gov't does NOT want you to see or be aware of.
- Hell, if there's NO inflation, then there don't need to be any COLA increases to our retiree's living on Social Security. Jiggering the offishul numbers saves Uncle Sam a bunch of money and allows him to wisely spend more money on things more important than old people (the suckers who paid into SS their working lives and trusted gov't to do the 'right' thing).
The VALUE (purchasing power) of the Federal Reserve Notes called 'Dollars' declines as the supply of Dollars increases.
- The future does not look good for the Dollar.
So WHY is this man smiling?
- Is it because we now have enough people who are even dumber than the government? [read: incompetent,unreliable, untrustworthy]
OR
- Is it because the FED will soon become the largest foreign creditor to the US Gov't (essentially the US buying its own debt), knocking the Chinese into second place?

AR-15 Modified to Shoot a .50 BMG Round — UPDATE!!
An update from Glenn Reynolds:
HERE’S MORE on that Zel Custom .50 rifle I mentioned Friday. Considering its immense power and impressive size, it’s really pretty easy to shoot. Shouldering it is work, since it weighs something like 35-40 pounds. On the other hand, all that weight smooths out the recoil, too, so the felt kick isn’t so bad — roughly comparable to a 12 gauge shotgun, I’d say. And, of course, it’s not really meant to be fired from the shoulder. Note that it’s actually a bolt-action, with a side-mounted box magazine. Here’s a closeup:

Sabotage in Iran
A massive fire is raging in the storage facility of Iran's Shahab-3 ballistic missiles. According to online sources, the site was top secret and housed most of the Shehab-3 missile launchers that Iran had stocked for striking US forces in Iraq and Israel in the event of war - some even set to deliver triple warheads.

What is a woman?
A real woman is a man's best friend. She will never stand him up and never let him down. She will reassure him when he feels insecure and comfort him after a bad day. She will inspire him to do things he never thought he could do; to live without fear and forget regret. She will enable him to express his deepest emotions and give in to his most intimate desires. She will make sure he always feels as though he's the most handsome man in the room and will enable him to be the most confident, sexy, seductive, invincible...
No, wait... I'm thinking of Whiskey. Never mind.

Team Obama is featured in a new movie, starring themselves. Unfortunately the 52% (including Pluto, Minnie & Mickey courtesy of ACORN) arranged it so we get to 'live' the experience.

The FED's Balance Sheet........from Rico
Ever wonder what is on the FED's Balance Sheet?
After yesterday's POMO, the FED, with $821.1 billion, is now the #2 holder of US Treasurys after China. After the announced FED purchases through Nov 8, the FED will be #1 with $853 billion...surpassing China's $847 billion.
Swell. In effect the FED is buying it's own debt. Don't try this at home, it doesn't work any better than Congress raiding the Social Security cash-box and leaving USG IOU's to itself.
Treasurys are unsurprisingly tanking right now, and I rather expect them to drop off a cliff anytime now.
