I hope you are right with China controlling the LA port now it's a little
Unsettling.

I don't give a damn about mark. He is just a lewd, crude, ignorant, progressive.

"lewd'????

says the hypocrite who's been talking about pu**y!! STILL talking outta both sides of your mouth....and sayin' nuthin.

as for whether you "give a damn" or not about me.....i think we all know how much truth can found found in that lie.

Lewd? anyone that talks about the violent death caused by "boots on the throat" is extremely LEWD.

As far as pu**y I was talking about the picture of the cute little kitty Vinny posted. To you it is a slang term, to others it is not. I figured you would try and dance with that one and dance out of context. Why don't you post the other part or do you just get great joy out of twisting EVERYONES WORDS.

THAT IS LEWD RUDE and DISGUSTING. Why don't you just stop before you hurt yourself.

The deal G. W. Bush tried to push, to have the United Arab Emirates in control of the ports, didn't work out. So China got it.

I don't know.
Presently, China's best strategy seems to be to prepare as best they can for the inevitable.

Vinny... How do you go from posting irrelevant B.S., to posting some really intellectual Ideas?

How do you go from attacking me to explain LIBOR... To explaining a major problem with the Federal Reserve.

You are a conundrum... You are an incredibly intelligent person with clarity of thought and then you come out saying things that are not really hurtful, just silly.

WHO the heck are you? PLEASE NOTE: I really don't dislike you.

That was a really silly post. Please stop embarrassing yourself, MARK.

Well Glenny, since you were unable to make any sort of intelligent comment about LIBOR, I felt it best to let the subject drop. Pictures of kittens and stuff seem much easier for you to grasp (um, in your own way, of course).



BANK FRAUD: The Big Losers in the Libor Rate Manipulation Local Governments Which Entered Into Interest Rate Swaps Got Scalped

We know that the big banks conspired to manipulate Libor rates, with the approval of government authorities.

We know that the Libor manipulation effected the world's largest market ; interest rate derivatives.

But who are the biggest victims?

Sometimes the big banks manipulated the Libor rates up, and sometimes down. Different groups of people got hurt depending which way the rates were gamed.

Bloomberg's Darrell Preston explained last year how cities and other local governments got scalped when rates were manipulated downward:

In the U.S. municipal borrowers used swaps to guard against the risk of higher interest costs on variable rate debt by exchanging payments with another entity and tying how much they pay to an underlying value such as an index. The agreements can backfire if rates move in unexpected directions, resulting in issuers making larger payments.The derivatives were often designed to offset the risks of increases in the short-term rates tied to auction-rate securities, fixing borrowers costs by trading their debt- service payments with another party. Instead, rates dropped.

The yield on two-year Treasury notes fell from about 5.1 percent in June 2007 to a record 0.14 percent on Sept. 20. On Oct. 6, the U.S. Treasury sold $10 billion of five-day cash- management bills at 0 percent.

Ellen Brown adds:

For more than a decade, banks and insurance companies convinced local governments, hospitals, universities and other non profits that interest rate swaps would lower interest rates on bonds sold for public projects such as roads, bridges and schools. The swaps were entered into to insure against a rise in interest rates, but instead, interest rates fell to historically low levels. This was not a flood, earthquake, or other insurable risk due to environmental unknowns or acts of God. It was a deliberate, manipulated move by the Fed, acting to save the banks from their own folly in precipitating the credit crisis of 2008. The banks got in trouble, and the Federal Reserve and federal government rushed in to bail them out, rewarding them for their misdeeds at the expense of the taxpayers. The same thing happened in England.

Isn't it amazing how Allen Greenspan can get on the podium for 10 minutes
Make a speech and dictate the fate of our economy for the next 6 months?

We have gone from the greatest nation on earth to the laughing stock of the earth in under a decade. But then voters got what they wanted. When you invest your vote based on bullshit then you get the bullshit.

Vinny I agree with you.

If you read my post's a bit more carefully you would not be posting so many sweet pictures.

Be very careful, when you jump on some one else's band wagon.

HATE is a very strong word and can be easily misunderstood.

You have no facts on your side so I was just ... "giving a good example of the dishonest way that people are personally attacked by those who don't have facts on their side."

Oh yes, I gave several facts and you responded with a picture of Joe McCarthey with no reference to why, like that was an answer, so I treated your attempt at ridicule with sarcasm...which apparently went over your head.

And it's not a personal attack on Obama, to quote a remark he made to cause racial division.
