Still, easier to just visit the coin dealer….but..??

Seems some are a little more creative, have more energy….seems at a 1,000/ounce…these boys might be on to something. Figure, at the end of the day, they ought to be having a fish fry on the riverbank. (grin)

Hey Irish, can you cook up a mess of hushpuppies?

How I wish it cuold be so…justice prevails and the crooks are punished to the max.

Ain’t gonna happen in our lifetime.

Fact is…the boyz that put these derivative deals together messed with ALL forms of credit which THEY generated and PROFITED from…then packaged their fraud …joined with their partners in crime at the rating agencies and packaged them as AAA rated sources of income to nations, pension funds, insurance companies, and retirees trusting the “rating” of their “investment”

Not just mortgages involved…auto loans, credit card debit balances…virtually all forms of credit outstanding were packaged and retailed under the guise of investment programs.

The boyz responsible will escape the judicial aspects of the system…simply because they rule the financial system…which overules the judicial…in fact the judicial is appointed and controlled by the same folks who packaged the crap to begin with…a sad joke on everyone with more than an ounce of integrity.  Such is life in the present sense.

“The trend is changing also for US-based pension funds. The California Pension & Retirement System (CALPERS) and the Texas Teachers Union have announced plans to devote more future investment to commodities and energy. They join the Sovereign Wealth Funds after being burned on US$-based bonds. A powerful torrent is building for commodities, in opposition to the corrupt US$-based paper conmen games. ”

Sounds good. Will take it a little more serious…when those pensions funds, and other ‘funds’, start showing how many ‘ounces’ they own on thier balance sheets. Probably too ole fashioned I am. But old enough, to have grown weary, suspicious even, of any paper games.

But hey, its probably a step in the right direction. (grin)

Best, and thanks for what you bring to these pages. Farmboy

Farmboy…yep….that’ll do er….LOL


PM_Energy @ 18:42 pm

Little late, but wanted to express a hearty ‘Welcome’ to you. Remember you from another life…or place I do. (grin)

Wanted to say a couple things about your ‘concerns’ for posting under the Tent.

My guess would be, in this modern day and age….that few have any secrets. For example, if you ever used a credit card to pay for ….oh…things like hunting gear, weapons, ammo,….if while doing your research on the internet, and ever went to some ‘questionable sight’ (Alex Jones comes to mind), even probably if you are on a Ron Paul Email list somewhere…??

Figure, most independent, Freedom loving folks, has triggered a red flag at some time. ??

Figure, the govt aint makin plans to build ‘prisons’ without having made up thier lists, of ‘probable suspects’.

One friend of mine once told me, thier are more undercover BATF agents at the local gun/surival shows than there are customers these days.?

Mostly I figure, might as well use our voice, our Freedom, while we can. And be making tracks with a Plan B. After the 08 Elections are history, aint no tellin what is around the bend.

Anyways, Best, and good to have you chiming in. Thanks for the links….Farmboy

Auric…stop..I beg you stop….you are dulling my brain…whats left of it

…I cant take it anymore…….Floridagold please edit this post and add a cry baby……toon1310.gif

floridagold @ 21:32 pm

Hey, wanna ‘Hot Tip’, straight from the horse’s mouth?

Caught a few minutes of Jim Cramer show tonight. (Cant help it….the price I pay for having a remote control, and a habit of flipping channels)

Anyways, ole Cramer was passing on a hot one tonight. VISA is soon to offer an IPO. He suggested all his viewers call thier brokers, and beg, borrow, steal, harrass, whatever thier brokers to get them a few shares of this “Winner”. Told his audience, it was a sure thing, a winner…a gold mine.

(Yeah, like those Credit Card Companies aint the next victim in this charade of debt. Of bills that Americans are falling behind in, only slightly less so than thier ARM Mortgage)

One of these days….and I just know it will be soon….one of those ‘Stock Expurts’ is gonna hold up a Gold or Silver Eagle, and announce, “An ounce is still an ounce”. I just know it. Course, I was pretty sure my attempts to crossbreed a watermelon and a cucumber would have the world beating a path to the farm. (One of those things that looked good on paper…grin)

Hey, dont laugh at me. Even had a name picked out, and ready to copyright. CukeMelon.

OK….so maybe it was a crazy idea afterall. But probably not even half as crazy, as what the growers on Wall St have crossbred, invented, with all thier paper derivitives. And somebody, bought thier crazy idea, right? (grin)

Course, Im learning, that things on paper….well, sometimes the value of the paper itself, is about as good as it ever gets.

Best, Farmboy

Fullgoldcrown @ 22:03 pm

Your post is the second time I heard about ‘Lynch Mobs’ today.

Was listening to some radio talk show earlier, and one caller said, “You want Tax Reform??”

Simple, just start paying everybody in this country on friday afternoon, in CASH. And as they leave thier workplace, have an IRS agent standing at the door, collecting ‘his share’ of that weeks pay. Caller figured it wouldn’t be but a few weeks, before a revolution took hold, and folks would start having lynching parties in the parking lots.

Somewhere (?) around the farm, Im pretty sure I still have some rolls of barbed wire. Probably a little rusty, but think it would hold up to a number of lynchings, before it would have to be replaced. (grin)

Best this evening, Farmboy (Always willing to donate to the ’cause’)

mr_gold_bug @ 21:43 pm

Now wait here just a darn minute! You mean you bought some gold mining jr and it went up??

Dont hold me to it, but I dont think thats how it’s suppose to work. Not least in the past year or so. (Course, this is a leap year. Might explain it all, )

And about that ‘basket’.

Now that basket I bought a few years back seems to be holding up nicely. But I think any ‘baskets’ bought in the last year or two seem to have holes in the bottoms of them. Dont seem to hold those ‘dirty stinkin profits’, like the ole baskets do. (grin)(Probably Made In China!)

Best to you, have a great weekend, Farmboy. (Back to working down today’s posts)

goldgrub 21:35 wait now do you

have your official decoder ring for your post? if not a case of bushmills to the administration will get you in the back door of the decoder ring warehouse! :mrgreen: good post and i hope a bunch of tenters attend. wj

Goldgrub…..that sounds fantastic…

would love to meet that man.,,,,the “Creature” is the Bible to me…..can you imagine the Research he had to put in for an Epic like that…?…keep us all informed please…..best FGC

Goldgrub @ 21:53 pm

Naw,  just happened to have that guy and it was a chance to use him!  All the other little Goldgrubs are safe.  Have a good weekend.

Alright..i’ve read enough about this Subslime Mess to make me puke

….What a cesspool of lies deciet greed stupidity and putridity this is….Everybody involved in the Mortgage Industry is responsible in some way……Tell me to whom it wasnt obvious that these things would blow up….perhaps what wasnt obvious was how many of these shady deals were done..and how decievingly they were packaged…for the sole purpose of generating huge commissions to the brokers and the appraisers…and big fat year end bonuses to the Directors of the banks and mortgage dealers etc which sowed these as profit generating loans on the books for a couple of years…Must have been a lot of them to generate the present estimated 600 Billion in Loses Worldwide…How long do you think it will take for the New U S Administration to start the Lynching mobs….Who will be targeted to pay the supreme price…..there are likely millions of fraudsters who contributed to this farce….Lending huge money to people with questionable employment and tainted credit ratings for Overpriced houses who had NO Way of ever paying it back…….Who will by Lynched…?…I can see a McCarthy-like mentality whereby they have Congressional Hearings and just throw them all in Prison…(with all the Steroid Pumped Balll Players) and throw away the key….how high up will they go to appease the defrauded masses…?……Rubin…Greenspan…Bernanke?…..Bank CEOs..?…

….Sorry to rant but enough of these Bozo’s passing the buck…call all the Fed heads to the Carpet for starters….and watch em squirm and beg for mercy in High Definition..could be more popular that Cramer’s Show…..

….I guess the Bush Administration wont do anything to their pals……But Obama/Clinton sure better act forcefully…..maybe a Ministry of Subprime Punishment….I hear Gitmo is almost empty…

……O k enough ….

Mr. Gold Bug

S&P may downgrade 1,887 classes of Alt-A mortgage securities

SAN FRANCISCO (MarketWatch) — Standard & Poor’s said on Friday that it may downgrade 1,887 classes of mortgage securities backed by so-called Alt-A home loans. The securities, made up of mortgages originated in 2006 and the first half of 2007, were put on CreditWatch with negative implications, the rating agency said. Alt-A loans were usually offered to more creditworthy borrowers than subprime mortgages, however, they required less information such as documents verifying home buyers’ incomes. There’s been a persistent increase in delinquencies on the loans underlying these securities, S&P said.

To all Aussie Bugs……

With the permission of the administrators and by flashing my “Since I became a crazy goldtenter I can post whatever the hell I want now” junior ranger badge I’d like to promote the upcoming 911Truthnow conference in Sydney from the 14th-16th of March.

“OG” (that’s Original Goldbug”) G Edward Griffin will be speaking in a once- in-a-lifetime opportunity for Aussie Bugs.

Warning to other (non-aussie) readers, long full Advertisement now follows:

The 911Truthnow conference will be an awesome event for just $128!

For starters, there’s G Edward Griffin, one of the original authors to document the real nature of the Federal Reserve Bank and the means by which it underpins and enables the current power structures. His book “The Creature from Jekyll Island” is required reading for goldbugs and dissenters of every ilk. Reading “The Creature” and “The Chasm” were the beginning of my personal “red pill” experience and as we all know, once you’ve taken it, you never see the world the same way again.

If you’re not sure what I mean by “red pill” experience, here’s a nice thought-provoking essay I found:

http://www.arrod.co.uk/essays/matrix.php

Mr Griffin is in his seventies now so it is highly likely that this will be the only chance you’ll ever get to meet him and hear him in person.

I personally think that the trip to Sydney is worth it just to pay homage to this great man who has devoted his whole life to investigating and documenting the architects of the New World Order. Don’t forget that without pioneers like him the knowledge we hold as so important to our lives might never have reached us.

He deserves to be recognised and thanked by us.

If you don’t know much about him, here’s a link to the Freedom Force website…. have a look around.

The rest of the program reads like an “all stars” of the worldwide 911Truth movement…. I’ve seen Professor Steven Jones and Lt Col Bob Bowman speak on DVD and they are both nothing short of inspirational. They’ll be brilliant when given the time to expand on their knowledge.

If you’re unfamiliar with them here’s some background to have a look at:

Lt Col Bob Bowman - U.S. Air Force fighter pilot with over 100 combat missions. (PhD in Aeronautics and Nuclear Engineering, Cal Tech). Former Head of the Department of Aeronautical Engineering and Assistant Dean at the U.S. Air Force Institute of Technology. 22-year Air Force career, ex Head of the US “Star Wars” program - talk about a credible authority!

Check out his bio on the 120+ Patriots for 911 truth website, Just scroll down - he’s the 4th one in…

http://patriotsquestion911.com/

Professor Steven Jones PhD- Physicist, the man who provided proof that thermite was used to cut the steel structures - Former Professor of Physics at Brigham Young University. Retired in January 2007 to devote more time to 9/11 research. Principal Investigator for experimental Muon-catalyzed fusion from 1982 to 1991 for the U.S. Department of Energy, Division of Advanced Energy Projects.

Billions of dollars of sales slam muni bonds

NEW YORK (Reuters) - Tender option bond programs on Friday were selling “multiple billions” of dollars of U.S. municipal bonds, a money manager said, which is accelerating a market slide that experts call the worst in decades.

Prices have dropped for the past 12 days, partly due to the problems borrowers and investors are having with short-term municipal markets.

Two of these markets, auction rate and variable demand note obligations, have frozen because investors fear some bond insurers that backed this debt are no longer credit-worthy as a result of their bad bets on subprime mortgage investments.

These dislocations have hurt tender option bond trusts, which buy long-term muni bonds and finance them by selling floating notes. But now they are losing money — or are about to — because their borrowing costs have skyrocketed.

At the same time, the value of their long-term municipal bonds has plunged.

“Tender option bond selling is in the multiple billions,” said Gary Pollack, a managing director at Deutsche Bank Private Wealth Management. Tender option bond programs are created by both hedge funds and dealers, and they typically are highly leveraged, which intensifies their influence on the market.
