is he there to help them through the failure of greece? is his experience with lehman, his control of our money, and his relationship with the fed, make him important to help manage the failure of greece this weekend?
all the positive talk coming out of the euro zone about the saving of greece sounds a lot like what happened here, right before the lehman failure.
can it be this weekend? can greece be out of the euro as soon as a few days? what happens to world markets on monday if this happens these weekend?

He's just tallying up how much money to print in order to cover all of those bonds the banks never should have bought to begin with.

don't be surprised if greece in no longer in the euro zone next week
they have a flesh eating bacteria and need to cut it out before it can't be treated in the other limbs of the euro zone.

Too late, they let Greece into the hospitals banks, and now it shall spread. If Greece defaults it is mostly the French banks that will take the biggest hit. Important because France and Germany are the only two large solvent nations holding the other weak nations up. Maybe tax-cheat tiny Tim Geithner will try loaning them some of our USA dollars, that we have to borrow from China.

What do you except from the French WXYZ, they do have Great Food, Great Wine, and if you have been to the Moulin Rouge, Great Women and they don't need gold when they have all of that Great Art hanging all over the place. LOL It's to bad that Politics hasn't been their Greatest Achievement, but they still have time to get that one right.

but I would bet their banks are totally bankrupt and they are hiding it from the world.
this can only happen with fiat currenices.........
why can someone feel this way, one moment, and say the opposite thing the next?

xyz- if you are playing a game and the prize for winning that game was a bunch of jelly beans, but you hated jelly beans, why would you play that game, especially knowing that the game is rigged to have a certain outcome, for a certain few?
fyi- i to, consider myself a libertarian and supporter of the constitution as freedom's protection.

lets see where this market take us.
i am....... the matching 401k (6%) and a safe return of about 2 to 3% as of late, and the rest of my cash drawing 1% in a savings acct in ing. investing in some property rentals that i control, some silver coins, and having no debt to include my home and cars.
i am not getting rich, (subjective term) but not risking anything on someone else's decisions or lack of decisions. i know i will retire comfortably and will live comfortably until i get there.
again, i don't fault anyone for doing what they want to do, but i don't care to be told what i am doing is bullshit or stupid, as has been the case since i have joined this board. my opinions are my opinions, and i feel i have the right to express them. i defend the hard money stance, and should have the right to do so, just as you have the right to defend your investment strategies and your market opinions.
"Internet conspiracy bullshit" is not my take on what i think, it is what you think of my thinking, which is what most on this board thinks of hard money defenders, and maybe without thought, make those kind of statements, which triggers a defensive response from me and from others like me.
if you take notice, in most cases, i only respond to threads that entice my involvement, like the 'plunge' thread, which specifically solicited argument between stock people and gold people. don't get me wrong, i liked the exchanges and frank's interaction, i had no complaints, but it always became an issue with frank- DEFENDERS. he didn't need to be defended, he did just fine by himself.
whow! what a ramble.......sorry but it all seemed to come out
