      Bush's Peculiar Wall Street Speech
      The comments above forget the balance/counterbalance of the elected system. What were the house and senate finance committees doing all this time? As far as I can see it they almost acknowledged the problems but did nothing until there was a failure. Fannie and Freddie got attention by default. The current crisis was sitting out in the open for quite some time. Any half intelligent person could see the problem coming but it got shelved until it has become near out of hand. Question for those with political statement s is why is your man not also culpable.

      Its easy to blame Bush but I think Franks and Waxman are both do nothings until it hits the fan. Then they, along with many others, go into political gear. Its time the country evolved by working on long term policy for economic, energy and other issues to dovetail into good public policy. To of ten there is an emergency of the day or week etc

      Cramer's Mad Money: Deere Mr. President (11/3/08)
      Mia - pay attention to the market. Some people like to wait until the move has established some type of trend. This stops some of the whiplash. Any prediction by anyone including yourself should be subject to modification. If you got out on the last bad fall of stock prices it was wise since nobody had any idea of how far the market was to drop. Cramer is just saying it appears the market for these stocks will go up.

      Cramer makes mistakes but he also gives you a valid method of thinking with some guidance. You need to do the homework for yourself.

      Pathetic Display at Yesterday's Financial Hearings
      The Florida congressman should not have played his game but he is correct in that it is hard to understand how one can make regulations but at the same time hold the hand out for donations. There is plenty of blame to go around but the elected official opened the door for many to slip through. Those that are suppose to look after our interests should be forward looking and vigilant. They have failed us miserably.

      What Will Happen to Closed End Funds?
      User 7013. So what if he is writing for PR? Do you think everyone else in this forum writes for your good?

      Some of us derive information from what he writes. Sometimes the questions posed by others is more enlightening than an article. If you don't like the articles Roger writes why read them?

      Avoid Broken Buck Syndrome with Treasuries Money Market Funds
      DenisL hit the nail on the head. Look no further than those leaders who are suppose to balance the Presidency. They had hearings and supported the very institutions that have failed or are failing then later took huge campaign contributions. Honesty, knowledge and all the rest of that stuff is a pipe dream. Yes DenisL Ron Paul has been the one with the knowledge and integrity.

      Using Several Stock Rating Services
      Very good article, a change of pace article for the section. Different methodology and certainly locates a number of "sandboxes" to play in. It also appears to be a valid method for playing some money in the market.

      ETF Update: Fund of Fund ETFs, Steel, Oil and Gas
      I suspect Tom knows much more than you or most people about the subject. He writes to inform a number of us that have for whatever reason not wanted to go the very narrow route you have taken. His diverse information gives us a much needed bit of general information to help point the way.

      Wednesday Outlook: Commodities, Emerging Markets
      Well Kelly consider both the House and Senate in the same vein. They have a tremendous amount of influence and responsibility but also come up short with gibberish while trying to look important. Sounds to me you are taking your frustrations out on Bush and McCain but forgetting those two governing (?) bodies are required to approve his actions by vote. Obama has said nothing to impress me that he can succeed in the finance area - he is extremely vague at best. There is a need for people to be more detailed, say what they mean and mean what they say.

      At present we are suffering for having a bunch of lawyers run the country. There is a need for a new group in Congress that will pay attention and quickly react according to conditions. Do you get the feeling that maybe Wall Street is just too intelligent and we and our government are along for the ride.

      Three Stocks To Be Held To Infinity and Beyond
      inthemoney has a point. For the GE lovers you should look at the absolutely horrific environmental liability - start with the Hudson River and keep on going. They have delayed the expenses for some time now but sooner or later it will catch up with them and the stock price will go down . Maybe will they get some type of bail out

      What the New Interest in Saskatchewan Oil Sands Means For Oilsands Quest
      You need to look at your estimated barrels and decide upon a recovery factor to make any estimation valid. Steam methods do not recover 100% of reserves.

      Hecla Mining: Best Valued Silver Producer
      to Aurum.though. Whats the alternative to mining? Do we say we do not want to drive cars, have computers, cell phones and all the modern usage of gold and silver?

      Environmental pressures are being placed and steadily increased on mining companies. Over my lifetime we have gone from mine and leave to the use of reclaiming and water treatment. Thats progress.

      But taking your argument farther should we also say no more development of cities - they encroach on nature and create probably far more environmental damage. There is and will be an ever better balance.

      I think it is better that mining should take place where there is an environmental conscience. Should we mine at a third world site where the conscience is considerably less?

      Global Warming Up to a Hydrogen Economy
      It seems there is always a discussion of global warming warning of disasterous results such as rising sea levels. A suggestion might be for readers to study a little about the earths history.

      In a geology course some years ago I was told that at one time the glaciers were something like a mile thick on the US/Canadian border. The absolute thickness does not really matter - its the idea that a few thousand feet of ice has melted over a long period of time. It continues to melt.

      A warming and cooling process has produced several ice ages. Remember there is coal and oil deposits in the arctic, antarctic and over most of the earth. The formation of these compounds requires a warm tropical climate.

      There is a repetitve cycle that is so long that most of the human race cannot comprehend. I understand the talk about ways to make the atmosphere better but lets not get people all lathered up about the horrors of seas rising and other such things. Its going to happen no matter what the human race does - until mother nature decides to change the story.
