    Well said. What an assclown.

    You know, I don't blame Democrats and liberals for voting for Obama. That's what they do. No, I blame the Republicans and self-proclaimed "conservatives" that believed his bull**** and got him elected.

    On the upside I'm going to grab another roundy of AAPL for a quick turn when they bounce back.

    I bought some AAPL puts a while back that would cover it right now, but I think it'll bounce back.

    Is this a correction or the start of the Big Bear?

    Are any stocks not in free fall? Maybe Dollar Thrifty since they just posted higher quarter profits? Goooo, Tulsa! (-based company!)

    it seems like i've been through this so many times since 1996, but this one feels like the real thing. maybe i'm getting a little too caught up in the volatility, but we are talking about sovereign debt all over europe and now here. and this stuff doesnt quietly go away. nor quickly. good luck.
