Go out NOW and fill up, folks. Every time the price of oil goes up, the gas stations raise their prices quickly.

Helicopter Ben defended the dollar on air and international traders are testing his theory to see when he'll put his "money" where his mouth is (aka interest rate increases and monetary contraction)

Looks like the overeducated student of the GD has it more wrong every day we move forward.

With food and energy costs soaring-can you say INFLATION, Benny Boy?-I'm betting interest rates will rise by the 4th quarter.

Plenty of non MSM sites have been forecasting this for a while.
Finally it cannot be avoided by the MSM

Thank you America for putting another BUSH in office. Osama set out to destroy America and he's doing a really good job of it. If you had not elected another BUSH this would not be happening IMO. In November we have another chance to keep the Republican's out of the White House; but will we do it?

Yes we will and the KEY turning point will be the Iraq War. If there were no such thing as the Iraq war, McCain would win. But because of the iraq war, McCain will lose and Obama will be our commander in chief. Mark my words.

I think Obama will win..but I don't know if he can turn the tables on what is happening..the US has been hurt big time and there's no easy fix. It will be a hard road uphill.

We are prime for a Marxist revolution and Obama will bring it. It might be time to illegally emigrate to mexico. I never thought I'd those words coming from my own mouth, but we are headed for a fascist takeover. 411 down on the Dow. Monday is gunna be nasty.
