    Rand's speech was Mischievous and BRILLIANT!

    Thanks for the clarification Brent. That is one great quote and it's nice to know where it came from.

    "Demand that Senator Rand Paul abandon his call to end aid to Israel"

    I am so proud that Rand Paul is calling to end ALL foreign aid. I hope other congressmen join him. What's happening in Egypt should be a wake up call that you cannot rely on foreign aid to provide "stability" as it is often purported to do.

    $2000 & an Etrade account

    Hmmm, ARMH, I love that company, but at a PE of 102 I just get the feeling it's too late to invest. Got to look for a dip. I might be wrong but such a high PE ratio scares me a bit. Other chip companies such as NVDA are nice too. At this point though, I would wait for a dip in the market to buy...

    When I buy a particular stock low and sell high I am not giving money to that company. I am GETTING money. Right? ;) I got my numbers from Google, make sure you enter the correct dates. I started counting from the date of the original post to today. Who cares what the stock does 99% of the...

    Rare earth is right, but only because China is now cracking down on smugglers. Look at GWMGF. 153% up since the original post. I wish I had seen this one coming!!

    Well, 3 months later it looks like I was indeed right about Citigroup. In fact it outperfomed other stocks mentioned here. I agree Google has not performed well. But let's check back in a year. :) BP +12% C +14% GOOG +1% EXK +7% PBR +11% SLW +3% IVN +11% AONE +5%

    Ditzy CNN anchor says "You gotta remember the underwear bomber"

    I think they should combine the TSA with my proctologist, so I get my rectal exam at the same time I board my flight. And if you are going to X-ray me, then call my radiologist so at least he gets to check my bone density and my cavities too.

    Hmmm. I agree dividends are great when you need stable income. But he said he already has stability (physical PMs and savings) and is now looking for long term growth.

    I think Citi looks good over the long term http://money.cnn.com/quote/forecast/forecast.html?symb=C And I just don't think Google has any real competitors in the search engine arena if you exclude China. If you look at its other products you will find it's grabbing market share from Apple and...

    Since you said growth over the long term, how about BP, Citigroup, and Google

    Barney Frank, Ron Paul and 55 others advocate for defense cuts

    And that's what makes Ron Paul different from the rest ! He is the only one with the guts to always vote on principle and not on party. Defense is out of control. At least organizations like wikileaks are able to shed some light on what really goes on, since the MSM is pathetically useless.

    Are Republicans Regretting Rand Paul?

    I don't think we need Michael Steele's seal of approval, right? The country is mad at both parties, and Rand Paul represents a new choice. We know it's not going to be easy, with the left painting him as a hyped-up republican, and the old republicans trying to disown him. But I think that's...

    Should a black person be forced to serve a Klansman?

    That's odd. I would think they would want to welcome people that are leaving Arizona. Right? You could tell them you are boycotting AZ too, who cares.
