[email_link] Of course, this should get him a promotion at MSNBC. Effete: affected, overrefined, and ineffectual; see “Chris Hayes.” OK, I appended the name of the MSNBC host to the dictionary definition. But if ever you wanted to see the human embodiment of the adjective in action, have a look at the video from his MSNBC…
Just a small note that the Greek elections are June 17th…not sure what it will mean. It is amazing that many believe the answer is more debt and government spending. This is what is believed here. I dont know when we got to that point but it is sickening to watch. The answer is the…
Futures flat after being up decently earlier. Germany and a few other countries said go screw to having European bonds…and knowing they would be on the hook when others defaulted…so Europe fell back. Trading probably light today but nothing to do anyhow. Without a follow through do, I am doing nothing more than to wait…

[email_link] Bill Clinton just out-Clinton’d himself — posing with two famous porn stars in Monaco moments ago … and one of them’s a real up-and-comer. Clinton’s in a Monte Carlo casino right now for a special “Nights in Monaco” gala event — and several celebrities are in attendance … including Diane Kruger, Joshua Jackson… and a BUNCH OF…

[email_link] As you read about the statement Joe Biden made to a group of supporters in New Hampshire, think about this: Who has been running the show for almost 4 years? Who had unfettered power for 2 years? Who has been blasting almost every corner of business for almost 4 years? Who has spent almost…
