Well, Crown Prince Mohammad bin Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud is actually trying to turn his deeply fundamentalist state into one much more moderate.

Be careful of what you wish for. At this time we simply do not know enough.This could simply be a family grudge match

Anyone can invest in the markets, that is true. However those who look to the past believing that it can somehow predict the future are as close to being guaranteed losers in the long run as is possible.

again I simply point to 2000 and 2007. At this point I will agree to disagree

an amusing story - Google car camera capture of you neighborhood has finally reached what used to be Eastern Europe. A few years back I was looking if I could locate both of my grandparents houses. Yes both sets of grandparents actually did own their own houses in Commy Czechoslovakia.
This weekend I located both of their houses. My father’s parents house has been demolished and a new on has taken its place. The garden in back of the house is still there pretty much as I remember it when I was Seven or Eight years old. My mother’s parents house is an old “Victorian” four story behemoth. The Russians took it for their general officers quarters when they invaded in 1968. This house is still standing and appears to be occupied by families.
I also went looking for the apparent we lived in and the school I attended. I found those as well. That quality commie construction from the late 1950s is still standing.
The really good news is that there were tons of cars everywhere I looked in the Old country. Life after communism is thriving

You should lay claim to it and start collecting rent.

Whenever you have Dems in charge the weakness they project is an open invitation to bad people to advance their agendas. Every foreign disaster can be traced to weakness rather than strength which they respect.

"2000 and 2007 stock markets are much more the norm and can be instructional if you are interested in preserving you hard earned capital"

I preserved my capital through the 2000 and 2007 periods, thanks. I didn't do it by paying money to charlatans that told me they could predict the future by looking at past 'cycles'.

So 2000 and 2007 were predictions by some seer?

It is an indisputable fact that the market moves on earnings.

If you accept that, as you must, than anyone who could look at you and predict down the road what earnings will be is doing nothing more than guessing. And you know the saying, even a stopped clock is right twice a day.

Now Marie Harf BSing her way through another lie. All of a sudden she's worried about deficits. She says; "we can't keep writing these huge checks" after zero doubled the debt,just too good.

I am pretty sure is referring to the GOP tax cut. Don't forget the RAT Party believes that ALL MONEY belongs to the Government and thus when taxes are cut by the evil GOP, that means the Government is going to have to GIVE you back money (your own money to start always escapes them).

Nancy Pelosi Believes that All Money Belongs to the Government

A Leftist Lets It Slip: All Your Money Belongs To Government

You and I don't think that way - the GOPee used to stand for smaller Federal Govt but I think they changed course somewhere along the line - the Bushes?

Thanks for the link, Shalom. Next year will be a VERY important one re our “relationship” with China. USTR Lighthizer will provide President Trump with some “unilateral” trade policy actions under Section 301 of our Trade Act of 1974. If the WTO complains, will Trump tell the “multilateral” WTO to pound sand?

And will the ChiComs decide that aiding fat Rocketboi is not worth losing its very favorable trade position with the Western World? The contrast between President Trump, and his last four predecessors is striking. We have the right President at the right time. Twenty-eighteen should prove to be a banner year.

Happy New Year. everyone!

Seems Trump is now totally responsible for Rocket Man's 20 year old nuke program.

The "Media" so called, is never ever going to place the blame on Bubba Klintoon and his Madeline Halfbright for the Nork Nukes and ICBMs. Any of us old enough remember these two geniuses rhetoric all over the air waves back in the 1990s.

PeRino and chalk board man key reasons we got Obama, unlike Trump no fight back in them.There I amplified your statement. I used to write emails to the WH almost on a weekly basis after listing to the garbage on the airwaves from 2000-2008 - including ErrHead Amerika - telling Bush that if he didn't fight this propaganda he was going to be toast. He would NEVER ever stand up to the Left saying he and chalk board man believed the HIGH ROAD was the one to take. THIS FACT ALONE IS WHY I VOTED FOR TRUMP - I figured that if anyone running as a Repub, it had to be trump to expose the lies of the "media" we have been fed ever since the THREE TV networks controlled all news that you were allowed to hear.

Remember that LIE about Bush and Weapons of Mass Destruction regurgitated over and over by the left? BUSH never lied - he was using the WMD info from the UK, but he would never defend himself (IMHO upon the urging of chalk board man).

Bush is the one responsible for giving us Barry Insane Soetoro, the foreigner.

Talking Points of this Day

Highlights of the year just passed. Trump's victory, of course, and everything evil descended upon us since that election ------------------------------

Meet the Press

Predictions abounded about a landslide for the Democrats in 2018. Heh. Youtube Link

HERE

-----------------------------

This Week With George Stephanopolous

Adm. Mullin updates us on the situation in Korea and Iran.

Youtube Link

HERE

-----------------------------

Face the Nation

A most interesting interview of Lindsay Graham. Graham was humble and admiring of President Trump. "He beat me like a drum," Graham said. Graham said that he has changed his assessment of Donald Trump since the time he called him a worm and a weasel. Graham did give Lucifer Mueller a big ATABBOY so the elite Republicans still hope.

Youtube Link

HERE

-----------------------------

CNN State of the Union

OMG, Woodward and Bernstein. Their silly little investigation of Watergate is nothing compared with the corruption in our current government. Bernstein declared, over and over, that Trump lies and he lies and Trump lies. Bernstein, an ugly hateful man, did not give a single lie as an example of Trump's deception.
