I think the full snippet of this article bears repeating... this is such sick and twisted shiit that EVERYONE should be made aware:


NEW YORK (The Borowitz Report) - In what is looming as another public relations predicament for Goldman Sachs, the banking giant admitted today that it made "a substantial financial bet against the Gulf of Mexico" one day before the sinking of an oil rig in that body of water.

The new revelations came to light after government investigators turned up new emails from Goldman employee Fabrice "Fabulous Fab" Tourre in which he bragged to a girlfriend that the firm was taking a "big short" position on the Gulf.

"One oil rig goes down and we're going to be rolling in dough," Mr. Tourre wrote in one email. "Suck it, fishies and birdies!"

The news about Goldman's bet against the Gulf comes on the heels of embarrassing revelations that the firm had taken a short position on Lindsay Lohan's acting career. More here.

Holy crap. That is insane. Words cannot express the anger I am feeling right now. It's just another "is this it?" moment for me. When the world crumbles and TSHTF, we should have a deck of cards with these guys on the cards, if you know what I mean.

I would laugh it wasn't so serious. The sad thing is most people are so stupid, even with in your face "evidence" like this they still believe it was just luck.

It's as if they (GS) know that we (the upper 1% that actually have a clue) know exactly what's going on, and they're just rubbing it in our face. F*ckers.


Well, we got the Kenyan mulatto monkeyboy rubbing the eligibility issue in our faces last Sat. nite. Dunno how it can get more blatant than that.

How about this part, "The news about Goldman's bet against the Gulf comes on the heels of embarrassing revelations that the firm had taken a short position on Lindsay Lohan's acting career."

Kind of obvious its supposed to be humor.

Let's find out why this time shall we?

however

Doesn't it feel like we are being drawn to certain Villians?

To Goldman Sachs the world is one big casino wherein you play with other people's retirement pensions.

Yeah, a REAL journalist would say that... but good luck finding a REAL journalist!

And yeah, this appears to be satire, but I would not be shocked to learn of goldman sachs shorting BP.

You can buy weather derivatives, I wouldn't be at all surpised if you could short the Gulf of Mexico as crazy as it sounds.

These dumbasses will bet on or against anything so the Lohan part didn't really surprise me either.

I'm sorry, you'll have to retract your statement. In order for someone to be mulatto, one parent has to be white and the other black.

Here is the truth about Mr. Obama's name, and his father's ancestors:

True Negro tribal members of western Kenya where his father was born have Christian names, not Arabic. His father's decision to name him with an Arabic name is a matter of his father establishing his ethnic identity in Africa - it is done deliberately to separate him from the African tribes. He may live among them, but he is not one of them. His father's message is that he is Arabic, not Negro.

Many will find these truths unsettling. I'm often asked, "But I thought his father was Kenyan. How could Mr. Obama not be African-American, how could his ethnic composition be so Arabic?"

The definitive clue to that answer is to look at his name, his father's name, and the names of all his ancestors on his father's side. They are all Arabic.

Researching his roots reveal that on his father's side, he is descended from Arab slave traders. They operated under an extended grant from Queen Victoria, who gave them the right to continue the slave trade in exchange for helping the British defeat the Madhi Army in southern Sudan and the Upper Nile region.

Wait, I thought the Anglo-Saxons were the good guys? James bond worked for them.

Well this is released to the public to show that G. Sux is evil and we need a world bank openly regulating all of it, IMHO.
