Well in that case I think 100 yds would be sufficient.

i find it fascinating how many people continue to ignore reality, to the extent of making up fuzzy math to try and dispute a point in any of my threads.

I wasn't trying to make up fuzzy math, I assumed you were going for a more demonstrative difference. As I said previously, MY BAD. You people are so f'ing defensive it's comical.

you people are so desperate to score a point its comical.

You noticed the "cya" smiley I assume? Mayeb the 3rd time I explain this you'll get it....I thought you were trying to make the point that Obama has us in vastly better position than Bush and I thought you used an analogy that didn't portray that. I was simply pointing out that in my opinion, the difference in your analogy was minute. That's all. I wasn't saying anything about whether I agree or disagree with your point.

Something along the lines of we are no longer headed toward the icebergs or something to that effect. But whatever, I have learned my lesson, there are no innocent observations in your threads.

oh no, i got it. my last post was more directed at preacher who had absolutely nothing to add to this thread, otther than a desperate attempt of deflection because i actually made a point, and he hates that.

argue away preach...

nasdaq is up about the same as well.

"but...but...but... obama..."

still, experts in the know (as opposed to messageboard panic artists) all admit there is no magic pill for a cure.

we are in unchartered waters. atleast now, we are a few nautical miles away trying to steer the economical titanic away from the iceberg as opposed to a just a few thousand yards.

No mention of Obama...and it makes no sense to say "Bu...bu...Obama" because it's not deflecting to actually address his screw-ups in real time as they occur. Defelecting is trying to divert attention AWAY from those screw-ups by calling into question past Presidents instead of actually addressing the current guy messing things up left and right. It's ineffective when it's done right, laughably transparent when it's done this clumsily and ineffectively.

As for Buffet, again, his job is to put the best spin on any policy that comes out, no matter who comes up with it, because the worm needs to turn, and consumer confidence is the baseline for this whole thing. Once people start spending and stop saving, things will turn around. Buffet is no idiot...he knows he needs to prop up whatever POS the government plops out, good or bad, because so many people heed his advice. He has a HEAVY vested interest in this, even moreso because he threw his weight behind this amateur Obama and he NEEDS this welfare plan to work. Fact is, we all do, regardless of how good or bad it actually is.
