Have any of you seen the ad on the main page that asks you to support free speech and religious liberty? It links to a page that states the following:
“Gay marriage activists want to SILENCE the opposition. They don’t want to debate the consequences of same-sex marriage even though scholars say gay marriage creates widespread legal conflicts for small businesses and religious institutions. Please help support traditional marriage rights with your donation.”
The ad also has a video of the Miss America saying she doesn’t agree with gay marriage.
As a gay woman I feel like I’ve been punched in the gut. Do I expect Mr. B’s politics to fall in line with mine on every issue? No. I’m not that short sighted. But I do need to take some time and decide whether, as a gay woman who believes in gay marriage (an issue very important to me) if I want to support a blog (via clicks) that accepts advertising money from such an organization.
(Please note, I’m not asking anyone here to agree with me or my feelings on the issue. I just felt the need to say this. And no, this isn’t a 11217 style “I’m taking my toys and going home unless you all beg me to stay” type of thing. Just my feelings right now.)
m4l…i think we are in a sustainable rally. That’s just me gut feel.
There will eventually be a pause, a pullback and maybe, meybe a test of the lows again. If the latter happens, the rally back up will be even more forceful and strong. We trade our long/short fund as we see the market change on a week-by-week basis so we’re always trying to guess.
No one really knows but the reason I say this is that the economic numbers are not getting worse, they are UNEXPECTEDLY getting better and that’s the key. Eveyone’s sooooo bearish and there’s sooooo much money sitting on the sidelines.
Look at all the emerging markets lead this rally. They are up between 10% and 59% YTD in Latin America & Asia.
Could you imagine what every Tom, Dick & Harry will do once Nouriel Roubini makes some positive comment. It’ll be up 1,000 poins on the DOW that day!!!!!
“Did anybody lose their parking spot to old lady today?”
Speaking of….I need to go move my car. I’ll bring keys with me.
I stole a cab from an old lady waiting in the rain. 🙂
