Stock Market Tumbles; Cruise Ship Vanishings; Gop Debate; & Space Junk

23 September 2011


The Sky Is Falling Today
Upper Atmosphere

Today is the day to keep your heads down and your eyes wide open !

Some hefty pieces of Made In The USA space junk just might be coming "home".

To screwily twist and paraphrase a famous Shakespearean line:

"We shot some space junk in the air... where It lands, we know not where !"

--------------------------------------------------

Vanishing Cruise Ship Passengers
United Kingdom

Now this is weird... at least 165 people have vanished from luxury cruise ships worldwide... during the cruises... since 1995 !

Granted, that is only about 11 people per year... but, HEY... that's 11 people every year!!!

The report gives no answers... only speculations about falling overboard accidents, or maybe suicidal acts, or maybe even foul play as bad as pushing someone overboard.

They just don't know... still BIG unsolved mysteries !

I've been on several cruises over the years... (my favorite was the 2-week Disney Mediterranean trip)... and I can tell ya...

from now on, I'm carrying a life jacket with me at all times wherever I go on a cruise!

U.S. Stocks Tumble... Again !
Wall Street, NYC, USA

Here we go again !

The stock markets are getting slapped around again... in the U.S. and worldwide !

Can't us poor, regular slobs... who are small time investors in stocks... EVER catch a break ???

Down another 391 points yesterday !!!

Most countries around the world revolve around what happens in the U.S. economy... and it ain't pretty at all !

President Obama needs to get on the ball... (NO... NOT the golf ball)... and get some workable job-creating programs going in America.

He needs to stop playing golf...
stop playing at being President...
and quit pushing his job-killing "agendas" !

Get us some American jobs, Mr. President !!!

GOP Debate In Florida
Orlando

Well, verbal punches were thrown all night.

With Governor Perry and former Governor Romney taking most of the air time...

all the candidates were slugging it out and trying to throw verbal mud on each other in "sound bite" chunks.

I don't care what they say or said or are gonna say...

they just need to get somebody solid who will soundly DEFEAT OBAMA and his wayward, haphazard policies in 2012 !!!

15 OCT 2008... Biden, Nepotism, Adultery, Congressman Mahoney, Obama, McCain, Couric, Debate, Earn Ad Money

Biden Routes Campaign Cash To Family; Their Firms.
15 OCT 2008, (Washington Times)

Family (sister & son), friends, campaign managers, former campaign acquaintances...
those folks listed MAY be legal as receivers of nearly $2,000,000 Sen. Biden's failed-presidential-campaign pay-out money.

BUT... the practice Sen Joe Biden has used the past 2 years could also lead to potential conflicts of interest and the appearance of mass nepotism (giving family and friends jobs or pay using government money).

As Gov. Palin is famously quoted... "Say it ain't so, Joe!"

Mahoney May Not Seek Reelection.
15 OCT 2008, (Politico, The Crypt)

Well, well, well...

Caught with his hand in the "cookie", uh... er... "cookie JAR", not just once, BUT possibly twice, Florida Congressman Mahoney is suddenly thinking of NOT seeking reelection.

Could it be because the FBI is now getting involved?
Could it be Floridians are fed up with these filandering Congressmen and Senators?

Too bad he didn't pay her sooner or maybe more money to keep quiet about his affair.

He pulled the wool over the eyes of his constituents for years, and he just might have gotten away with it... again!

Good luck Congressman... or should we say former-Congressman?
(That'll look good on a resume, I bet... Good Riddance!)

Obama Campaign Issues Talking Points To Media Ahead of Debate.
15 OCT 2008, (Drudge Report)

An e-mail memo from Sen. Obama press secretary Sean Smith was sent to the major media this morning... a full 12 hours BEFORE the Presidential Debate!!!

Wowza... This sounds to me a lot like trying to "coach" the media on what to say to counter point-winning statements they might hear by Sen. McCain tonight in the debate.

This e-mail gave the mass media suggested ways to "couch" what they would hear when they (the media) regurjitated sound bites to their TV, Newspaper, Website, and Radio audiences.

AND now... as I listen to Katie Couric leading her "debate" after the Debate, she is getting a lot of "John McCain did much better tonight" answers.

AND she sure didn't sound happy to have to acknowledge these McCain-positive comments.

Oops... now Katie is trying to get someone to agree with her that Sen. McCain was sort of disrespectful and rolling his eyes at Obama statements. The guy wouldn't bite though... good for him.

Katie will always continue to spin this toward "McCain=Bad/Obama=Good".

6 OCT 2008... Stocks, Congress, Bailout, Obama Youth, Al Quaida, Palin, McCain, Debate, 9/11, Muslim, Pit Bull,

Markets Routed In Global Selloff !
6 OCT 2008, (FT.com/Financial Times)

Ka-Wham !!!
Ouch, my portfolio just took a body blow today of over $2,500 down... at least it's only on paper so far. It's down too much for me to sell out now. I'm like almost everybody else and will just have to dollar-cost-average my future stock buy-ins and wait it out till prices creep back up.

The whole world's markets are taking a strong hit in the nose with this "bailout" uncertainty and fallout.

What a "great" job our U.S. Congress has done these past few years watching & helping all those predatory lender companies and unqualified mortgage recipients get giant loans they had no ability (and maybe no intention) to pay back.

Bravo, Congressmen, Bravo!
I'll be sure to vote you guys back in office come next election... NOT !!!

Obama Youth - Junior Fraternity Regiment
6 OCT 2008, (You Tube)

Look out... the Obama Youth Junior Fraternity Regiment is coming our way! This is only a group of 10 Black teenage boys in a Kansas City public school, afterschool program... but... how many more of these little "groups" are out there in inner cities across the U.S. swearing an oath of allegience to their mentor and leader Sen. Barack Obama?

It might initially be seen as a group of minority youth espousing their admiration for their larger-than-life inspiration (Sen. Obama)... but... the "uniforms" of battle dress army camouflage pants, black t-shirts and combat boots are quite disturbing. Their fists-clenched together "salute" as they give their individual "because of Obama" chants is not a German "Sieg Heil", but it also isn't a mild Boy Scout hand salute either.

Is this just a community organizer-type event or the growing seeds of minority groups in lockstep, who have sworn allegience to one great inspirational "leader"? Where is the teacher or local organizer responsible for the "guidance" or teachings of these teenagers?

I know it is a far cry and big leap from the 1930's Germany (the Brown Shirt youth), 1940's Russia (Stalin's KGB), or even 1960's Cuba (Fidel and his boys)... but... innocent groups sometimes get blinded and misled and before you know it there are small groups like the Black Panthers, Weathermen Underground, Hell's Angels or Simbianese Liberation Army.

I'm NOT saying in any way, shape, or form that this is a sprouting radical group, but... Don't ever say it just can't happen here to us in our good old U.S. of A.

Similar to what the kids chant in the video "Yes It Can!"
=================================================
Pit Bull !
6 OCT 2008, (My Way News/Drudge Report)

Wow, Gov. Palin has sunk her 'pit bull" teeth in and is not letting up! She is putting the bite on the Sen. Obama campaign by getting the topics of William "bomber" Ayers and Rev. Jeremiah Wright out in the open where they ought to be. These shady associations need further discussion and the broad American public deserves to be informed of Sen. Obama's mentors.

These continued, weekend accusations heated up the campaign rhetoric Monday and now Obama's camp is dropping threats out there that if McCain doesn't call off his "attack dog" (Gov. Palin) he (Obama) will bring up the Keating 5 scandal from McCain's past.

This should make for a bare-knuckle discussion at tomorrow night's Presidential debate... it just depends how the topics are broached and who gets the first (and most memorable) right-cross in there to his opponent.

No light jabs will do for tomorrow night... some knock down blows are called for and need to be delivered whenever an opening is given! No more pussy-footing around the "sensitive" subjects... just Go Get Him! This could finally get interesting.

Al-Quaida: U.S. Economic Crisis Equals Muslim Victory
6 OCT 2008, (Yahoo News)

Sickening ! An American-born guy turned Al Quaida member is trying to claim our U.S. economic crisis is because they have bled us infidels too much in Iraq and Afghanistan... Bullcrap! Our own Congressmen are the ones financially bleeding us over here.

As for the former American (now Al Quaida) traitor, he can go take a flying leap off a big cliff... maybe with a little helpful American nudge to get him going.

I just watched today the History Channel broadcast of "102 Minutes That Changed America". Disgusting, depressing, and especially infuriating!

I would recommend that this film... graphic as it is... be watched at least twice a year by every patriotic American.

There would be no further questions about supporting our troops, or why we are over there and why these crazy, cowardly, Al Quaida zealots need to be fought in every location around the world in which they hide.
