      Did President Bush's Speech Spark the Rally?
      The Bush speech, real intent was to keep the market from blowing through key support levels...
      lame speech for a lame Duck ...........and I voted twice for him.

      The bush team failed on so many levels


      Vietnam in the desert

      Largest Real Estate bubble in history

      No energy plan - 700 billion per year overseas oil bill

      No serious effort, at all, to Veto excessive Government Spending

      ............thereby setting the stage for intense pressure on the dollar and supra-inflation.

      Where are the regulators?
      The safeguards?

      What is the FED, SEC, and Treasury paid for?
      For that matter in light of 9-11 what are the CIA, NSA,and the FBI paid for?
      See a pattern here?

      Brookfield Asset Management Weathering Economic Turmoil
      ----recently BAM purchased Longview Fibre. The timberlands are THEE best in terms of product quality,growth and future valuation. Located in between Seattle and Portland mostly, these timberlands of Douglas Fir, Western Hemlock, Red Alder, and Cedar, little known fact, the most productive forestlands in the World. Even better than lower B.C. or Southern Oregon. The Alder once sprayed out as a weed tree, has become an important source of Cabinet & interior trim wood with the look of pine but almost has dense and hard as oak. Furthermore the Alder has better color in this small region -much more value in future as that fact becomes more recognized. Harvestable saw logs in 30 years. So now just plant an area in fir and let it go no maintenance because all species that grow have great value.
      I've been watching Bam since 2004.. Another aspect of BAM is it is based in a stable currency country. Canada.

      Six Primary Areas for Change and Opportunity
      Chinese stocks are incredibly cheap currently. I'm taking a beating on my picks but believe they offer great future potential. My portfolio includes
      JST,GU,APWR,COSWF,PWE,... -all shellacked the last couple days--- thank god for my large position in BEARX --that has been good inverse play.

      I've also been in and out of KWK, KFT, and TPP recently for good returns. Interested in going heavy TBT...any thoughts on that?

      Paul Krugman + Al Gore = The Way Forward
      Crossroad
      USA consumption of overseas energy has stripped our cupboards bare, BOT(700 Billion US$ in oil 12 month period). Just because Saudi Oil may be cheaper(again) does not mean we should utilize, we will do so at our peril, and ultimately our decline(demise). T.Boone Pickens plan must be enacted post haste. United States transfer of wealth for energy , combined with Gov. budget debacle, and Real Estate implosion has brought serious danger to OUR ability to decide OUR future. To climb out of this hole we need to transform our Energy usage, developing new uses for energy resources that we in the USA have in abundance. This will create NEW Focus, NEW Technology, and New Jobs for Americans.

      --this transcends politics people--get real !

      The Current Economic Crisis: Hell, Meet Handbasket
      BEARX --is my bet for downward trend in US Market and dollar decline. Plus a basket of cheap Chinese companies that are internally driven not externally--- example HNP (power & dividend), SNEN (natural gas fueling stations), APWR( windpower), SOL(solar component), SDTH( chemicals),JST (transformers) etc etc there are hundreds of great Chinese stories out there--low PE with great potential ...AND potent currency appreciation probability. For what it's worth.

      I ain't got the guts to short--like do TBT or TLT -- but love the idea.

      The Winners Will Be Those Who Look to Gold and Commodities
      Jim Rogers lastest blurb about GOLD I read, was that gold may be affected by government selling gold to raise money ---I've got AUY in my portfolio so I'm interested in that new angle. This is a departure from Rogers previous thoughts on GOLD. Rogers was at a conference in New York City last week.

      We Have a Debt to Discharge


      -kinda reminds me of 'Apocalypse Now'! Slow drumbeats as the plot unfolds, inexorably, to a vastly stranger conclusion than you could have projected in the beginning.


      Jim Rogers gave clarion call ..............

      The Deflation Debate: Why This Time Is Different
      China and India are just a large part of the picture, the other players to become important are adjunct to China and India growth story, Smaller in population but RESOURCE rich with good budget and strong currency futures, Canada, Australia, New Zealand ,and Brasil are in great position to have strong future. We in the USA are dead in the water for at least 3 years maybe more..... This, sadly is the beginning of a protracted dollar decline thanks to bad Fed policy and Government miss-allocation of resources.

      Study Real Estate trends from 2002- 2007 the real estate bubble is our cement overcoat -no part of the country was/is unaffected by its' massive inflated rise- Rural Montana, Idaho, to Rural Vermont, and Nowhereville upstate New York, Texas and Nevada wasteland to the swamps of Florida the speculators are being crushed. Add this to the Wall Street 'Black Hole' of 30 to 1 leverage -trouble in River City.

      Ultimate Economic Showdown: China vs. the U.S.
      The Chinese think they can smooth out the bubbles that we in the US have a proclivity to produce lately ?Good deal.

      Barak Obama better have a game plan, because as it stands we are knee deep in it.
      Paul Volker for FED HEAD and T. Boone Pickens for Energy Sec would be a nice combo to start.

      Consider_This -interesting comment on China

      Approaching Zero
      Lets' see first Government misses any sign of terrorists pre-9/11. Geez I mean how many billions are spent on the CIA and FBI..and they blew it.

      Fast forward Buffet and other economists warn about derivitives market, low interest rates & give away mortagages. Real Estate prices go vertical- just like Dot com bubble went vertical--- crash & crash again.

      What kind of buffonery is this?
      So now we're going to get Super-Majority Democrat control and Barney (fannie mae) Frank, who has threatened the most sweeping reform of US financial system since the Great Depression.
      This is setting up to be epic bear market.
