      So Much for Stability: The Euro Cash Flood
      Free markets are great in theory. The look great in textbooks. Of course, those same textbooks push the efficient market theories - and if you believe in that one, maybe Santa and the Easter Bunny will be nice to you this year.

      Cramer: Dow Could Drop Another 14%, Oil's Going to $50
      MR Socialism - in case you hadn't noticed - Mr. Bush just gave us the largest deficit in history along with the largest debt ever.

      He lies. Period. He signs every law with a little disclaimer saying he can disobey the law anytime he wants because he is President (Paraphrased, but he does actually do this). He has locked up AMERICAN CITIZENS with no trial for 6 years in SOLITARY CONFINEMENT - and they went crazy. Great. No chance there to see if they were actually guilty of anything. I think you would think different if somehow YOU were the one he locked up.

      He doesn't believe in torture. However, he won't define torture for you, so torture is defined only in the air between his ears. Makes it awfully convenient, huh? The guy has an IQ of MAYBE 105. He has been led around like a puppy on a leash by the real powers that be. He was perfect for that...make him think it was his idea and he will stick to it until the end of the world comes.

      As far as taxing goes...Guess what? I'm middle class and I will pay less in taxes under Obama. McCain promotes a $5000 tax credit for healthcare. Guess what type of Healthcare you are going to get for $5000? Not much. I like my employer plan just fine. McCains $5000 is sure to be like the $5000 deduction for childcare...it was a nice number 8 years ago, but childcare has literally doubled in 8 years, and that number as remained the same. So, the $5000 tax credit for healthcare will effectively be worth half that in just a few years.

      I'm also tired of inaction by all of the government on Social Security. We are like the proverbial frog in the pot letting the water get hotter and hotter. Someone - and a democrat with a democratic congress is the only one that could possible do this - is going to have to step up and CHANGE the system. Yes, some will pay more, work longer and get less, but as it is now the system is simply a non-starter.

      So, you can proselytize for the Republicans or Libertarians all you want (Personally, I think of myself as both of those), but the truth is that those groups can get nothing real done and we need a mandate going into 2009. Obama is the only hope of a President with a mandate, so deal with it, as it is a done deal.

      MLPs Still Attractive After Recent Selloff
      FYI, about 10AM this morning you could've bought this basket and made around 10% by the close, for some reason they all got crushed early on with at least one down by 20%.

      Short Selling Ban Sends Chills Through Options Market
      I think they had a couple near record volume days over the last week...that'd be DURING the short selling ban, right?

      I love people bitching about raising the cap gains tax. You really think you are gonna have any cap gains to report in the next 4 years?

      And you can quit debating McCain vs. Obama, because Obama has it in the bag at this point, given the economic situation. Iraq + Palin + Economic Calamity is the perfect storm for the Republicans.

      And yeah, I'm a Republican, but I'm also tired of having my rights revoked by lies, my President lieing to his country, and my money disappearing.

      Munis in the Crosshairs
      How did one county borrow more than the Budget of the entire state for ten years running? Surely you meant Billion not trillion. This is hardly a small mistake and kinda makes me not want to read the rest of the article even though you are probably dead on.

      Real Estate Lending Growth, 2003-2008
      Ishortyou, we've all read your pump 10 times by now.

      Interestingly to me, the chart shows that lending hasn't really dropped off, just stopped going up.

      Gotta figure there will be a lot of used routers and servers hitting the streets for pretty cheap prices.

      Speculating on the Future
      Curbs - anyone that bought the junk got what they deserved. Buyer beware - I think that existed before the US ever came about.

      Yes, the end game is higher rates, but they will be higher everywhere, not just here.

      Time Not for a Bailout, But for Nationalization
      Kimberly, you can clarify all you want. But, why would I vote for someone that cannot put forth a clear agenda without external "interpretation?&...

      The guy won't even live to see the ramifications of 10% of his decision, and that is assuming he manages to live out a full term and not leave us stuck with the hillbilly soccermom he chose as a running mate.

      I was considering voting for him until he made that running mate choice. If that is the type of decision he makes under pressure, I think we all know who we should elect.

      When It Rains, It Pours
      dcx, your naive view of the markets is sadly probably above average for the citizens of the US. Which is exactly why we don't need to be listening to the public in times like this. This group of Republicans is simply being obstructionist in what amounts to the biggest game of chicken that has ever been played. You think banks failing is the fallout of inaction? That's like worrying about the dents on your car if you run over your kid. The banks are just the first casualty. You will get to see mortgage rates at values last seen in the 80's, many, many corporate defaults as they cannot refinance the debt they carry at 2% because rates are closer to 15%, millions of jobs lost, the dollar become the equivalent of the Kansas City Chiefs of the world's currency markets and your personal assets decline in value by anywhere from 20-40%.

      Please, keep your pedestrian, partisan crap in yoru head where it belongs.
