Gene's Footnotes

I have never been impressed by the messenger and always inspect the message, which I now understand is not the norm. People prefer to filter out discordant information. As such, I am frequently confronted with, "Where did you hear that...." Well, here you go. If you want an email version, send me an email.

Eve of Destruction: Age of Insomnia

I was perusing sites talking about the middle east, B.H. Obama, and the economy. Normal stuff. I was interested to see how our friends' economies were doing. Apparently, the Arabs were less immune than they thought.

I read Soros' people have the king's ear and we will see a U.S. movement toward conciliatory action with Hamas against the bad Israel. This is pretty good hustling for a guy whose traditional hedge fund has lost money three years in a row.

Then, I read of an ad stating how happy a reader would be buying in Abu Dabi, the fantasy place, only three days before articles and columns finally understood the financial crises and attacked the United States as leading the world into hell. The good news is they will start retracting investments. Let us hope the do so in the next year, so they can take a big hit. Those who just have money givern to them, don't usually have the brains to understand it.

Anyway, here is the tempering article, just in case you thought you were dealing with rational people.

Hamas: Jews caused financial crisis

The Hamas financial expert explained it all:
The Hamas militant group on Tuesday accused the United States Jewish Lobby for fomenting the global financial crisis.
The crisis was the result of "bad administrative and financial management and a bad banking system put into place and controlled by the Jewish lobby," Hamas spokesman Fawzi Barhum said in a statement.
Barhum said that despite approving a bailout plan of $700 billion dollars, the U.S. government was ignoring the role of "the Jewish lobby that put the U.S. banking and financial sector into place."

This lobby, said Barhum, "controls the U.S. elections and defines the foreign policy of any new administration in a manner that allows it to retain control of the American government and economy."
If only the US had stuck to Sharia financing, this would never have happened, and the US would have a nice flourishing economy like that of Sudan or Yemen. There! We knew it was the fault of the Jews, right? And Snoopy the Goon exposed the Jewish - Iranian conspiracy, which is the real reason for the crash.
Bravo for the moderate Hamas.

Of course, Sharia financing would have avoided the recent crises, especially after all the famines and plagues that killed off the people in America who were living in tents. I see it is the U.S. that is not following Sharia financing and is evil, not those Arab businesses now screaming holy hell. I guess they are true believers of Sharia.

I wonder how Osama's holdings are doing. It may be this collapse may knock down funding quite a bit. Silver lining?

So, we should all thank Chuck Schumer for starting the entire chain reaction with an intentional run on IndyMac Bank. I think the economic surprise did elect Obama by creating an economic crises, taking terrorists off the front page, and gave him an opportunity to reign in hell.

Lest you think I make things up, LA Times blog:

An important angle in the IndyMac failure that may get lost in ominous headlines tonight and tomorrow: federal regulators pointedly cited U.S. Sen. Charles Schumer, D-N.Y., in explaining the bank's failure. In simple language, federal regulators blamed Schumer for a run on the bank.
So, we have Schumer and Kennedy-Shlossberg representing us. Tell me we are not on the eve of destruction.

Ms. K-S:

While Kennedy hasn't strongly voiced her opinions on the day's major issues, she has said her ideologies fit perfectly with the Democratic party.

"I feel I like I am a Kennedy Democrat, a Clinton Democrat," she said recently. "Chuck Schumer, Barack Obama: these are leaders whose values I share."

OK. She is more perfect than Obama, a pure tabula rasa: no track record, no job, no books or articles, no interest in voting, no speeches. She is an unknown Kennedy, Clinton, Schumer, Obama democrat, which permits her to raise taxes, lower taxes, promote business and commerce, or crash banks, all with an engaging smile.

Perfect choice in the Age of Insomnia.
