  1. I don’t know that he played the trump card too early legion. Perhaps they took the temperature of the situation and decided it was starting to go against them, time to play the card, cash out and move on.

    All in all obama gets +10 points as a tactician on this issue.

  2. legion, gold is really not popping that much relative to other commodities and equities. Gold is a laggard on the spikes vs. those other classes so when it finally does move to catch up, it feels big but not really.

    have no idea why it’s popping but guess it the usual combo of weak USD, diversification from hot equities, insurance hedge….

  3. DIBS, as long as it’s a true statement to say that “republicans” made these birther comments, it’s guilty by association – ie can debate the degree of guilt but to say no association would be complete bullshit and a flat out LIE.

  4. me and a coworker are throwing a Royal Wedding party in the office early on friday morning… what kind of stuff do british people eat in the morning? we are thinking tea and crumpets. anything else? nothing hard to make please..

    *rob*

  5. DIBS, was not saying they should be booted but rather that since they’re not boot, they’re still part of the club and their shit becomes your shit (ie guilty by association). same principle applies across all political parties.
