  60. Hey Garnette,

    From your site (Thanks for the translation):

    Left the room in anger

    In any event, it raised both anger, shock and sadness among the staff of the Chicago committee who were present at the Bella Center on Friday, when Jacques Rogge said “the Windy City ‘as the first loser.

    In what is an old expression called lesions, they rose, according to some of the Danish team in the organizing committee itself and left the Bella Center.

    With the result that the number of Chicago employees and supporters of the first was not present when the official disclosure of 2016 host city took place in front of 1 billion people. The Olympic tradition prescribes otherwise, that all candidate cities must be present and thus demonstrate sportsmanship.


    No surprise. Obama was never a sportsman so has no concept of sportsmanship.

    Same as he is a leader.

  61. Thanks Miss Trixie, nice to meet you.

    For sure.
    The Man who invented Dynamite and created the Nobel Prize (which Obama has now 'won'), would love the fact that the Taliban, who used his invention to destroy those statues, now have a place at the table of a man who won his Peace Prize.

    Can someone turn my head back around please ?

    ReplyDelete
  66. Glad you decided to stick around, LoFlyer. It was just three little initials that went against the policy anyway, not the rest of your post. IMO

    BW will you put LoFlyer's bud on my tab please?

    ReplyDelete
  67. Geepers, glad you like the post. I got the translation elsewhere. Sad that the entire Chicago team had no sportsmanship or even manners as they represented this country.

  86. Taking the National Debt Seriously

    As of Sept. 30, 2009, the national debt was almost $12 trillion and interest on that debt was $383 billion for the year, according to the Treasury Department's Bureau of the Public Debt. The Congressional Budget Office on Oct. 7 estimated the 2009 budget deficit to be almost $1.4 trillion (about 10% of GDP). In August, the White House Office of Management and Budget (OMB) estimated total government revenues at about $2 trillion. The revenue estimate included $904 billion from individual income taxes. This means the cost of interest on the debt represented more than 40 cents of every dollar that came in from individual income taxes.

    Except for a few years in the late 1990s, for decades Washington has spent more than it has taken in each year and borrowed the rest. Taxpayer dollars that could have paid off debt each year have instead been spent on interest to finance debt. Unfortunately, that's a vicious cycle that will likely only get worse.

    The OMB projects deficits of about $9 trillion over the next 10 years. If that occurs, the national debt will be almost $21 trillion by 2019. However, the actual amount could be much higher. The OMB also optimistically projects $13.5 trillion of revenue increases over the next decade, while minimizing the inevitable rise in interest rates that will come with an expanding national debt.

    During Jimmy Carter's years in the White House, Treasury yields reached 15%. The 2009 average interest rate on the debt was only 3.2%. With our mounting national debt and budget deficits, it is reasonable to assume that in the near future interest rates on new and refinanced debt could double or triple.

    In stark but simple terms, unless Americans are made aware of this financial crisis and demand accountability, the very fabric of our society will be destroyed. Interest rates and interest costs will soar and government revenues will be devoured by interest on the national debt. Eventually, most of what we spend on Social Security, Medicare, education, national defense and much more may have to come from new borrowing, if such funding can be obtained. Left unchecked, this destructive deficit-debt cycle will leave the White House and Congress with either having to default on the national debt or instruct the Treasury to run the printing presses into a policy of hyperinflation.


    /hey, I know, let's spend a couple trillion more on health care "reform", cripple the economy with cap and trade, and, oh, how about a second "stimulus"?

    We've been worried to pieces about aussie for some time as we've not heard from her at all and are assuming something rotten has happened. Would you be kind enough to pass along a message to her that kina (who's presently in hospital after suffering a stroke) et al are most anxious to talk to her and miss her terribly?

    Many thanks, luv.

  106. Good evening. On Marketwatch you find this:


    Fed's Bullard warns on inflation, unemployment

    "Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis President James Bullard said Sunday that unemployment is headed into double digits, while the medium-term inflation outlook poses more risk than generally believed, according to reported comments.

    "Unemployment is leveling off, but we still may be headed toward double digits," Bullard was quoted as saying in a Bloomberg report.

    According to data released earlier this month, the U.S. unemployment rate hit a 26-year high of 9.8% in September. See full story on September jobs report.

    Bullard also voiced concern that popular perceptions ignore the risk of high inflation.

    "I am concerned about a popular narrative in use today ... that the output gap must be large since the recession is so severe ... [and] any medium-term inflation threat is negligible, even in the face of extraordinarily accommodative monetary policy. I think this narrative overplays the output-gap story," he was quoted as saying by Dow Jones Newswires."


    This is almost precisely what I have been saying now for quite a while. We are going to have high unemployment and high inflation. Regardless of the spin job that the MSM will do to praise their lord and savior Obama, keep a close eye on unemployment and inflation.

    It's like Jimmy Carter on steroids.
