This blog is on a roll. My autditing firm (the same one that audits Rush Limbaugh, and finds him to have a LOWER accuracy rating that I do) has raised the percentage of audited accuracy for tthis blog up to 99.8%. This blog has not made a single, verified error since innaccurately sayng Hillary would win Democratic nomination and McCain would lose Republican nomination (an inaccuracy for which I redeemed myself by saying that it was ESSENTIAL to come out for Romeny before Iowa--while Limbaugh was fiddling as Rome burned--the nomination of McCain being the equivalent of Rome burning). You can see the blog archives for confirmation of all of this.
Of course, I continue to be right on Wall Street (the Stupidest People on Earth). I again called it corrrectly yesterday. Think of how stupid (Stupidest People on Earth) anyone had to be to BUY stocks yesterday, ast he Standard and Porrs 500 approached the 930 level where traders already had SELL hard wired into their computers. As I have said repeatedly, both sports bettors and lemmings do better than Wall Street on ANTICIPATING the inevitable. Yes, the jobs data helped to knock stocks down, but that is lpart of the Wall Street stupdity. That data did not figure to be good, but stocks have been in a price bubble SPECULATING (computer gaming, really, having nothing whatever to do with economic reality) on a strong recovery that has not been evident (sayng things are not as bad ast they could have been is NOT a "recovery"). Last month's jobs data was essentially FICTION. Yes, one month does not mean mcch, despite the headlines last month about how much employment was "improving". Is it really "imporving" to lose 350,000 jobs--especailly when you realize onee month's numbers are so subject to distortion that they don't mean much.
Does that mean this month's numbers don't mean that much? In a way, yes, it does mean that. In other words, you can't really say that the economy DETERIORATED 100,000 jobs worth in the last month, and that we are headed for a deeper recession. Rather, what you can say is that we continue to lose 4000,000-5000,000 jobs a month, and that the situation is not improving much. We are not, of course, still in "free fall". bit we did not stay in "free fall" even in the Great Depression. Getting bad less quickly, or "stabilizing, is NOT "recovery". As you know, the position of this blog is that Obama (and Bush) policies have made a real recovery IMPOSSIBLE, and the best that can happen is an anemic recovery, soon short circutied, because of all of the Federal money (YOUR moeny and your children's money) being thrown at people Democrats deem "worthy".
If you want to know how deluded stock traders are that drove this computer rally in the last quarter (merely repeating the rallies at the end of last year AND at the end of last Ocober), you only have to consider California (and most other states are not much better off, although Texas is not that bad because we are SANE in Texas--so far). How many people have yet to lose their jobs because of California alone, not to mention other states finally having to cut back on government (heresy for the modern politician, and maybe for the old time ones as well). How can California go bankrupt and the economy really be improving? Not possible. Same with GM and Chrysler just implementing their shut down of dealers, and cut back on employees and scope of business. More job losses, right? And Caterpillar (could not happen to a nicer guy than good old Jim, the CEO who let Obama use him to seel the "stimulus" bill) came out with BAD news--thereby showing CEO (same Jim) should be FIRED for misrepresenting his business, and the effect of the "stimulus" bill. You will remember that bill was supposed to enable Caterpillar to REHIRE lpeople. As the CEO said, once the cameras were off, the real challenge for Caterpillar is to avoid things getting a lot WORSE. The other challenge for Caterpillar is to FIRE its CEO, who put politics above both this workers and his business (in typical, economic fascism fashion). I think "Jim's" name is Jim Allen (it is in archives), but it is immarterial. If Caterpillar ha any brains in its directors, the CEO will not be there long enough for anyone else to know his name.
I was even right on the wildest thing I said about the St. Louis Cardinals. Oh, I was right about them heading for a tailspin, which I noticed as it was happening. But I am not talking about that. I am talking about my observation that the Cardinals seem SNAKEBIT. How could this observation be confirmed? I am glad you asked me that, because it WAS confirmed literally the next day or so. You will remember that the Cardinals traded for Mark DeRosa, to be a new "bat" in a fading lineup (fading except for all-universe player Pujols). Well, DeRosa promptly went into a SLUMP. But wait. That is not all. Then DeRosa took a swing with his bat and MISSED. Well, you say, that is nomal. . Even Pujols misses on occasion, which does not explain why teams continue to pitch to him. However, this is a SNAKE BIT team (which may need to trade for a good trainer, as Cardinal plyers seem never to make it off of the diabled list as scheduled, and seem to go onto the DL for the strangest reasons, like a FINGER problem for Wainwright a good part of last year). Yep. DeRosa HURT himself (left wrist, yet) swinging a bat--the thing for which he was traded to do. If that is not a snakebit team, I don't know what is. The only thing you can say about the Cardinals is that the Giants PLAYED worse last night (did not really hit worse). You had Giant players circling aimlessly under foull pops, and thowing balls to bases where the runner was alreay there, picking his teeth, while a slower runner was still running to first base.
I digress. Even for me, the above is a pretty long digression. Yes, I am finally to the main point of this entry. This blog, yesterday, correctly said that PRESIDENT OBAMA IS A SMOKER. That also makes him a major league hyporite, given the all out war the Obama Adminstration is waging on cigarettes (for political reasons). But my auditing frim faced a COMPAINT because it gaveme credit for accuracy on that point. The leftists at the firm, however, who cannot bear for a conservative to have lthat high an accuracy rating, wanted to consider the complaint. The complaint was that President Obama actually addressed this poit, and said that he is "95% 'cured' of being a smoker." It shows you how irrational leftists are that the audit firm vote was only 5-4 in my favor on whether I was accurate to call Obama a smoker. In the end, as in the New Haven firefighter case, rationality barely prevailed. Forget that Obama's claim of a "95% cure" (LOL) is not "audited".
You can't be a "5% smoker". Only Obama can get away with saying things like that without being laughed out of the country. The man is a piece of work, and I mean that in the worst possible way.
