MessageHi Roger; I just read the article on your blog about Afganistand. It was good to finally had something I could read which explained what has been going on over there. At first I thought it was your own writing that I was reading. I had to do a check on that. Nice to have you still posting. Your blog is incredible to say the least! Take care, Ed

Messageour kiwi has been all the way up to 80c and back to settle at 76c

our reserve bank cant believe it and has spent a pathetic but significant 760m kiwi trying to beat off the worldwide fx speculators, in a modern day king canute impersonation

it is gradually dawning that its not all the kiwi, its the usd

and we are now seeing here, abc newsclips of bank foreclosures up your way ...a contrast to pictures of floods of us driven funds like GE coming down here and driving our mortgage market along at high speed for a couple of years

you can almost hear the screech of the wheels braking before the train smash

and yet there remain stocks on wall street like cci, amt and sbac - a group of so called 'tower' stocks - that a swag of locals here bought at 60c or a couple of dollars about 5 years ago

thay are now in their high 30's and early 40's and on pe's of 619 and the like and there have beeen lots of high 5's at the coffee shop, except that the fx has taken a bit of gloss off the top

in total these mobile phone transmitter pole sites have a market cap of 10.8billion + 16.7billion + 3.5bn = ie 30,000,000,000 usd

at 8% risk free available here the opportunity cost of this "asset" is us 2,400,000,000 pa and yet these assets are stuggling to break even....using traditional accounting methodologies like net profit after tax

yes, martha, there is plenty of downside down at wall street yet

MessageWell done America.

Reality finally penetrates your inner states, roll on 2008.

Meantime I'm on a mission of my own, sorting out a situation where a handful of your New Yorkers didnt do so well by us down here, they have ripped off the NZ public for the thick end of US$150 million.

MessageHe's smart, he's clean, he has experience at building and managing an organization, making payroll, inspiring people, etc. He seems to have a natural talent for politics. He's not beholden to neocon morons or Rapture-ready religious maniacs, nor to any particular lobby. He has a great deal of common sense. He is morally well-grounded. I like the way he sees the issues. I believe he could restore the credibility of the U.S. overseas and that of our government here at home -- if anyone could.

He's the kind of person we need, and had in the beginning (not long ago) -- people who had already made it in the real world and then decided to give something back in the form of public service.

As a function of daily life he distinguishes between delusion and reality. He is capable of making informed decisions.

MessageI wouldn't doubt it. Never paid any attention to either one so wouldn't know. But I do know this - there's no idiot alive as dangerous as Bush. Not only that, but the more I watch that guy the more I believe he's gone round the bend, flipped out. Insane.

I wish Lamont would run for Prez.

MessageHaving said this, I must also throw in. They Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid et al. are dangerous idiots.
