... But Abby has said time to buy.

Darleen,

I saw her speak those words today, it was either CNBC or CNN
when she appeared and was asked to comment on the markets.

This was the third time I have heard her reply to a question,
I think it was the nightly Business Report those other two times
and in all three of these times she replied in a similiar manner
to than used by Alan Greenspan to answer those obvious and hard questions
in the manner that he prepares ahead of time and selects very carefully
the message to be spoken with words that... my keyboard fingers
just got tongue-tied... as happens when one talks off top of head
and can sound dumb or say the wrong thing which sometimes
can be the truth.

Not sure, but didn't vp gore during his campaign spend some time
in his travels getting votes ride a train called "The Prosperity Tour"
or something like that to give out the message to the voting public
that the economy is in great shape with everyone a part of it goodness,
and that "elect me and this will continue.."

So I wonder, this woman Abby and the men vp gore and alan greenspan
all speak to us so that we will react in a way to help their each agenda.

Is this lying and being dishonest, or is it a different context where
everyone knows that an agenda is being put forth?

If so then each of these persons is doing something like a 1/2 truth
in that only a single side or view is given, or only a specific conclusion
is given while leaving out another possible conclusion?

Seems that RareBird has addressed this many times,
especially with GATA and the word manipulation.

If so then rather than ask if this is a good v evil
or a correct or incorrect matter
or a black and white object
or simply depends on the situation,
I would rather take a ron-ron approach
as in "it exist" now then and forever
and accept it and not only deal with it,
but even if it is a bad thing like I think,
"use it".

No sure, but I may be saying that survival=agenda
in this dog-eat-dog world and each of us must be
willing to accept that 1/2 truths and "not the whole story"
will be given by good and honest folks, especially when
the arena is politics and markets(money).

Sad to me, but as everyone on this thread has had lots
and extra lots experience dealing with this type of reality
through our real life real time exposure on this thread here
for gold and all the rest topics touched upon.

The bottom line here may be the question
"Whos to blame when things go bad.",
as in the following url from a today's Enigma post.

"I know a number of younger people who are being crucified.
Homes are in jeopardy. They are friends of my kids - married
with young families - who believed what they were hearing
about technology, the new economy, and new ways of doing
business and valuing a business, etc."

"For the most part they are well educated, successful people.
Other well educated people gave them advice and they believed."

"Why shouldn't they."

"The advice was coming from people who "knew."
Some followed this advice and borrowed to invest.
It made perfect sense."

" Who was I to question but I did... and very loudly..."

Interesting that the phrase
"It made perfect sense."
was used by those who are now in trouble
with a collapsed DOW or Nasdaq,
as to me they wanted to heard about a quick
and easy and safe way to make money,
and thusly they got their wish when CNBC
or others spoke those words to satisfy their agenda
and these folks accepted it as "truth & real"
rather than "agenda".

So whos at fault here?

RareBird has on his si profile
"Philosophy Rules"
which is true in that it decides our response to stimuli.

But when the majority of the population has none,
then whatever else is accepted,
being other peoples agenda,
that will rule
and chaos and evil knows this and uses it.
