    Bend over Yankee Doodle Dandies, we have y’all over a Saudi Oil Barrel. We now control your elections. We are sick of GWB demanding democracy and trivialities like womens rights. We are sick of him ignoring out requests and then having the nerve to come over here demanding we pump more oil.

    Watch the price of crude approach $150 by election time. Our vote has been cast; against another GWB III, aka John McCain.

    My pleasure Scum Bucket!

    Let me just add a few Saudi words of ancient wisdom:

    1. The measure you give will be the measure you get.

    2. Go against the natural laws of creation and karmic laws will set in motion, like a heavy stone of the seven great ages, and whomever falls upon this stone will be smashed to pieces, but whomever it falls upon will be crushed.

    Peace to you & all, on this most solemn of Yankee Holidays.

    I would just like to say that I am not related to Sheik Saudi al Oil bin Barrel, nor have I ever met her royale heiny, nor tapped it(oil humor); not that I would not, but I am a happily married man, or so I must say in public, lest sexual pleasure be withheld on this most solemn of Jankee Holiday weekends.

    ps. Cramer stills owes me 50K.

    A Warren Buffett article in the German magazine Spiegel, as translated by a free internet translation bot.

    Investor legend buffet attacks greedy bankers

    If Warren buffet speaks, the entire economic world pays attention: In the mirror discussion the legendary US multibillionaire Warren buffet speaks guessed markets and a continuous recession in the USA over except control. Besides he betrayed, what he has in Germany for plans.

    Hamburg – which has American investor and multibillionaire Warren buffet the financial industry and in particular the trade with derivatives strongly criticizes. “It cannot be nevertheless that hundredthousands of jobs are destroyed that whole branches of industry go in the material economy due to financial bets at the basis, although they are actually nuclearhealthy”, said he the MIRROR.

    He hardly sees effective controllability for these financial instruments. “That is the problem: They cannot steer such a thing, no more do not adjust.” Its statements resemble the words of refuge Köhler, which had compared the financial market guessed except control recently with a “monster”. (more…)

    Hard buffet attacked the bank managers, whose houses suffer most violently from the current crisis. “You brewed a poison beverage and had it at the end to drink”, said buffet. “The bankers make normally reluctantly such a thing, them rather sell it to others”, added he sarkastisch.

    Buffet judged the economic situation prospects in the own country more negatively than many other economics experts. According to “Forbes” – magazine richest man of the world spoke of a “recession” in the USA. “Perhaps not in the sense, like them economists define”, said buffet. Afterwards there must be two quarter one behind the other negative growth. But the people “feel the effects already”. The recession will more deeply go “and longer last, than many thinks”.

    To its own investments in Germany it gave on to plan no permanent participation to Munich back. Its enterprise acquired also participation in other German companies, which however also to the commercial existence belonged and fast again could be sold.

    It did not call names of the companies, however its interest manifested to invest also further in Germany particularly into old-established exempt private companies. “We look for large, well led enterprises, which we understand, said at first attempt” it. They must have grown over decades. Its interest in the country lies also in the positive economic development justified. That the location Germany does not have economic situation problems contrary to other nations, show, “that the Germans which about economics understand”.

    #8, purely plutonic (sic), my dear trouble-starter.

    I can’t figure out if the above is just a typo, or one of the most clever puns I’ve ever come across.

    One of my employees was at Wharton with Ivanka. He claims she was “smoking” hot compared to the usual fare (can you imagine what that was like?) there. Still, it seems she’s enhanced that level with a touch of the old “factory air,” judging from the provided clip.

    For Memorial Day, remember those at the tip of the spear.

    IOW, Marines and SEALs giving you “the space” to bitch about the market over the internets.

    (Apologies to the Army and Air Force vets reading, as I am not familiar w. any “special charities” related to their service segments. If anyone has those, please post.)

    Yes assholes, I have announced how bad the banks are, and have given you an awesome gift, an opportunity to “bear raid” the shitty financials, namely LEH, and MER. I will use this bear raid of financials to buy banks such as STI, USB, and WFC, and I suggest you do the same as a “hedge” of ironically your short position o.f those who don’t seem understand the concept of “hedging” (like MER and LEH)

    Just know, the magic buyout amount for all bullshit, soon to be defunct investment firms is 250 million.

    Buffett’s proposed bid for LTCM was 250 million, back in 1998.

    Dimon’s initial bid for Bear was 250 million.

    Who will bid 250 million for LEH?

    Odd, no?

    Talking to a JPM top dog, their apples to apples per share price that they are paying for bear stearns, after taking the losses, and reserving more money for unwinding costs = approximately $90/share.

    $10 was too much.

    Odd, no?

    I just realised I made 4177 barrels of oil last year. This year it should be closer to 6000 barrels of oil.
    FYI I am now getting paid in barrels of oil. No more worthless Dollars for me. And I don’t trust those Euros either. I might accept Kuwaiti Dinars though. Worlds strongest currency unit. Backed by billions of barrels of light crude. So sweet you can pour it on your pancakes for breakfast.

    From now on people will be speaking about their salaries in barrels of oil. ” Yes so I accepted that job offer over at Goldmans. Starting base is 1400 barrels of oil. ”
    ” Dude I just got a pay raise . They increased my annual salary by 175 barrels of oil.”
    ” I got a 320 barrels of oil bonus last year”
    ” Man my severance package from Lehmans was only 275 barrels of oil”

    ” Dude did you hear about Steve ? The guy cashed out 70,000 barrels of oil from the IPO .”

    I cannot believe the levels of communist assfuckery that visit this site. I put up a link to two charities that assist wounded vets and their families, and commies come and negative karma that?

    You people are un-freaking-believable!
