... and a salvo from China for the Democrats headed by Nancy, bloomberg.com "Gold Gains Most Since June as Dollar Drops on China Report" boom goes gold, and if kept up with solid action, boom goes real interest rate, kaboom with genuine purchasing power, real estate, stocks, bonds, and the puffed up GDP that supports all that Washington needs to do while still having its long tail simultaneously caught in the door jambs called Iraq and Afghanistan, and its willy exposed to N.Korea and Iran, with Russia, China, India, Europe, and LatAm looking on, amused and not in any hurry. Rumble time. Because as always, each new power group usually arrives in Washington on a China-bash wagon, and then the wheels fall off. The China message, no doubt coincidentally just post dem power grab in Washington, basically says, in a polite way, 'how do you want to play? or do you wish for us to pee in your in-tray?' In the Chinese schema, there is a time-honored "Xia Ma Wei" (loose English translation, "a shout at the moment of dismounting a horse" - a terrifyingly loud shout at one needing to dismount from high horse, to disturb both horse and rider at a precisely critical and psychological moment; loose American translation, 'do you feel lucky') concept where the opponents deliver a challenge to the new dude or duddette on the scene, calling the newbie counter-party rider to trip and tumble while getting off the high horse and look deliciously silly. Russia, Iran, N.Korea, and all the others will deliver their Xia Ma Wei as well, and it will not likely just be, 'welcome, dems'. Mean time, Bush is now officially lame, and down, will be kicked by all until out, and having to either take it with a smile, or go completely bush beserk. Let us watch the drama :0)) My guess, the imperative to buy gold just went UP in a big way.
