The British bank sector had a meltdown on Monday. The Royal Bank of Scotland was a big part of it.

So I guess Gordon Brown won't be asked to visit the White House anytime soon. :D

Nope, the willing press will be saying "Bush's Fault" for the next 4 years.

Remember after 9-11? Even though AlGore delayed the transition by a full month so Bush was playing catch-up after he took the oath in Jan the press laid everything at his feet after 911 - he should have known and fixed everything.

He should have fired every Clinton appointee but to "be nice" kept a bunch around. Wrong move - he got the blame anyway. He was the Pres and it happened on his watch so the buck did stop with him but......

Anyway - the Buck ain't going to stop on BHO's desk if the MSM can help it. They have started work on his reelection.

Bad Times investment plan is now down 18%. If it goes down again on Wednesday I'll have to by a few more shares.

Sir...with all due respect...Dow Theory Letters suggests that a Dow Industrials close below 7552.29 (the old lows) will indicate a further move lower. Perhaps quite a lot lower. In my opinion, this Bear has some big teeth.
