The Good Fight

This morning's headlines feature the possibility of a government shutdown over spending.

Hooray !!!

That's the correct battle - cut spending.

Disaster relief should be funded as a recurring item.  Disasters occur somewhere every year.  They are not unusual.  Cut some other wasteful program to fund them

Go for it, Tea party!  Get on message, Republican leadership!

Shut the government down - stop all this worthless spending.

The right fight.

Word of the Day

"Supine" - adjective [$10]
Supine means lying on the back or with face upward.
Sentence:  Here's hoping the Republican leadership stops being supine dolts and force real spending cuts on the budget bill.

    re TLT, no idea.

    Seems like the 1950s now. For awhile, it was a return to the 1970s.

    Hope we don't get to the 1930s in this time travel.

    beefers must be having a horrible year, now even gold, copper are falling.

    More Euro-beefer liquidation?

    The entire hedge fund industry is such a scam.

    And I heard that a large % of Harvard B-school grads went to the Street, incl hedge funds. That's usuall a counter-indicator.
