1 Too bad she's using Casey's life insurance money to do this. On the other hand in two years and a few months she's going to have five acres of land that no reporter will willingly visit. Will she stalk the next president, or is it just BDS driving her to waste her money?

2 I fail to see what's wrong with that. Ever since September 11th, lying is no big deal anymore. Everyone lies. Business as usual in the big bad USA.

3 Just a ploy to purchase the property....would you sell to her if you were in Bushland? Everybody would want to kick your ass!

If you cannot defeat your enemy...irritate them.

On a better note, the market took a nice swing up due to poor economic growth, hence the possible slowing of inflation which is growing more disturbing. Maybe the fed won't raise rates anymore...We can only hope.

4 poor economic growth

Poor compared to what?

5 Nice dream world you live in Johnny-boy (a little one I suspect - like around 14). The inflation rate has remained pretty constant - that is what the Fed does when it tightens and loosens the base rate. But I see that you are rooting for a poor economy as well as a win for the terrorists. Anything...any straw in the wind to prove you have been right all along. Geeeezzzz.....You lost big time already kid. By the way...the DOW has been on an upward swing as you call it, for a long time. Check it out here: 5 year Dow Performance Stats

6 BTW - nice try at hijacking the thread again Johnny. Didn't work.

Mama Sheehan used a very unethical approach to get to this property. It was wrong. But that is what she has to stoop to. She can't be honest any more.

7 The GDP report came in lower this quarter than economists had expected, which was actually viewed as positive on the street. GDP was great the first quarter (I believe 5.6 percent). It was expected to fall in the 3 percent range this quarter, but went lower than 3, about 2.5 or 6 I think...See, we are in an inflationary situation and nobody wants to see rates rise.

Bernanke could go one of two ways...He can continue to go buck wild and print more money to back up the weakening dollar. But, this will continue to cause inflation to increase and the dollar may collapse. Increased prices in energy are already straining the inflation in itself. Or, Bernanke could raises interest rates to slow down inflation, but the economy may slow too quickly.

I think Greenspan left on a high note and he knew it. Personally, everyone revered him as an economic wizard. Globalization of or economy to keep inflation low had more to do with our long streak of good times and I think he'd be the first to admit it as he has commented accordingly on several occasions.

A slowing of the economy will help bring prices in check with all of this "false" money and people borrowing like crazy to buy things they cannot afford. How's that adjustable mortgage hanging? Oddly enough...it is a good thing.

The last think I would want is a bad economy Specter. If you've been reading my posts, you'd realize that it is business and the economy that drives all these issues, while "no-so-bright" individuals fall rank and file to fight the big bad "terrorists" to carry out the underlying tasks for business at hand.

8 Retread, you said it all! The idea of an expired moment-of-fame Cindy stalking a future President is very funny! What's she going to say? "Don't you remember who I am!"

9 Buy APL on monday. Date of record is rapidly approaching. They pay about .85 cents per share dividend, and price per share is $43. If you can't beat those greedy ass clowns, then join them! When you get your dividend check on August 14th Specter, I'll show how to live in my dream world where dreams really do come true.

10 Johnny...this thread is not about the economy. I believe that CY has warned you about this....right?

11 VERY thin ice, Johnny.
