The endless, bit-by-bit increase in restrictions on the freedom of people in the US has to stop. The excuses which government uses to grab power are ... everything. The crypto-fascists are using any crime by one or a few criminals, or any problem seen or suffered by some groups, to seek to impose restrictions and limitations on the freedom of everyone. This philosophy of crypto-fascism is best seen by example.
A crime occurs using X. Let's ban X, even if X is owned by millions of people.
A group suffers from allergy to Y. Let's ban Y or impose limits on Y, even though 99% of people do NOT suffer from Y and even enjoy health benefits of it.
A group gets fat easily. Let's ban some types of foods from restaurants.
A terrorist event happens. Let's require every to carry an ID card.
Some parents can't control child TV viewing choices. Let's require a censorship chip in every TV.
Do you understand how this crypto-fascist ideology works ? An isolated event or problem of a few is used by the crypto-fascists to impose limitations on the freedom of everyone.
Bunkerman is leading another revolution against Crypto-Fascism. I'll now capitalize it as a recognized ideology - an insidious form of fascism itself. Crypto-Fascism hides in both major political parties in the US. The left uses crime by a few to forbid people from owning guns, etc. The right uses failed parents to censor everyone, etc.
Markets
Bears attacked yesterday after the slightly weaker consumer confidence number came out. We all know actions in spending mean more than talk, and signs of stabilized and increasing consumer spending abound. But bears used the news to attack. The raid stalled later in the day as no real selling appeared or was sparked. Overall, yesterday was a good one for the forces of light.
Word of the Day
"Comstockery" - noun [$100]; a Mencken word. After Anthony Comstock [1844-1915] US author & reformer.
Comstockery means overzealous moral censorship of the fine arts and literature, often mistaking outspoken, honest works for salacious ones.
Sentence: In the 20th century until about 1970, Crypto-Fascists engaged in comstockery to control ideas and thought in books and schools, and some still do. The US founders saw the dangers of government power and wrote the Bill of Rights. The courts finally jettisoned WW I era expediency and belatedly decided to enforce those constitutional provisions starting around 1950.
Das Wort der Woche
"Kartoffelsalat" - noun, masculine.
Kartoffelsalat means potato salad. It's a compound word. The German and American languages have thousands.
Der Satz: Bunkermann hat Bratwurst, Kartoffelsalat und Brokkoli gestern abend gegessen.
Sentence: Bunkerman ate bratwurst, potato salad and broccoli last evening.

Kein Test
No test.
if something bad happens, I would reconsider.
I would also lighten up on excessive froth.
permabull dementia
lolol a good one.
why does Blabberg put on serial failed regulators like Arthur Levitt - and he's even in the pocket of the Street.
old fool.
There's a "budding" H&S intermediate top in the S&P that I noticed yesterday. I'll be thinking IFF that gives an intermedaite term sell. I forget the level for trigering, but it's down a bit.
It's not in the Nazz 100 (=QQQQ), btw.
I wonder what level would make the permabears reconsider ?
Would they stay on the sidelines or short up to 1200 ?
Or a couple closes over 950 or 1000 ?
that budding H&S has an upward sloping neckline in the 880-890 area, under the cross point of the 50 DMA and 200 DMA.
I think it would take some "real" selling to get there and stick. An intra-break or overnight break means zilch, btw.
waiting to permabear chart points .....
The South African rand has been the strongest currency this year...think about it...Bunky do you speak south african?

Many, many South Africans speak English ... And Boer is a dialect of German.

real buyers out in force today...Bunky CIT looks bankrupt to me...I stuck in a $2 wtf bid today...please speak to the virtues of this fine invesment vehicle.
CIT is not working out.
I figured its type of lending would be in demand (permitting high spreads, etc), but they are having trouble getting the conversion to a bank approved.
It's a small position ... waiting.
real buyers gone wild...lots of money mangers asking themselves "if not now then when?"
Sharkfolio being very patient...
bank conversion...tarp funds would provide the pop...try to put some on for the second half.
put on some C yesterday for the second half...if your right trades back to investment grade five handle...I can see fund managers giving it a go...your hero dick bove rates it a strong buy.
Sharkfolio p&l curve eerily similar to Mr. Madoff's....
your hero dick bove rates it a strong buy.

Bud is probably busy shining the pigshark's car & shoes.
Hmm
I wonder how to say, "pigshark" in German ?
pig = Schwein, a neuter noun.
shark = Haifisch, a masculine noun.
the pigshark = der Schweinhaifisch
a pigshark = ein Schweinhaifisch
fine piece today Bman.................crypto-fascism.........i like that term
Bman why are you against commodity etf's ? let's say a beefer wants to own oil rice and lumber
etf's eliminate the cost of storage, slaries etc.....where will he store all those barrels of light crude ?? if you eliminate commodity etf's...........it will hurt the fireman's pension funds
Bman those were some horrible jobs numbers today..........-473k..........doesn't seem like the recession is over yet
Bman did you see the op-ed in the wsj yday regarding the VAT..........this recession better be over or nancy and her gang gonna impose one next year
final lesson tonite ace.............unless i buy more
tonite's topic - alignment
i'd love to shine his shoes and cars
STEC........nailed it !!!!!!
danke vielmals jim !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
pierdol sie bob !!!!
PS.......still wanna be friends ???
I'm sure your "pro" is going to tell you how you need more help...
"You are so close"
"This really looks good, but it can be better with some tweaking"
vaccuum salesman/PGA pro...all the same
a beefer can buy the futures or a derivative.
Commodity ETFs are a fraud on the public - the roll & frontrunning loots money from then every month.
I can't see the D's voting a huge tax increase in an election year. They might try in 2011.
Congress can impose excise taxes - might need a constitutional amandment for a VAT.
I'll look for it. I usually save the paper Journal for weekends.
btw, danke vielmals sounds errily like "thanks, feel balls"
everyone should have goals...Bud, the special olympics have added golf...here is a link for a pdf, the home training guide
