Stacy Summary: Thought I would gather some headlines on how other blogs are responding to the China’s announcement of the dollar’s imminent demise. Just domestic politics, or real threat? What do you think? And how are you positioning accordingly?
Updates:
Stacy – Weird, this is like some demented oil minstrel show for the Twitter age.
“It’s like a Eurovision song contest or a game show for energy companies,” said an executive at a top-three global oil giant. “A lot of work has gone into preparing our bid but I think on the day we are going to see the process may be quite fluid. If some companies find themselves disappointed on one contract they may have to make deals with other partners on the spot.”

Looks like even the King of Pop could not avoid the bankster cartel.
“Then in 2001, [Jackson] used his half of the ATV assets as collateral to secure $200 million in loans from Bank of America.

ATV is the company which owns the rights to the Beatles’ music.
Will Paul McCartney need to get permission from BofA to play his own songs?

RE: the pinstripe revolution
I modified my Twitter account appropriately (although I am using BAY STREET for my location and logo)
but how do we write the Tweets?
by putting a ridiculous bankster/oligarchal/illuminist comment with “#pinstripe” in it?
if so, then I think I got it…

seems like a good bet to me. i almost put some money on i’m-a-dinner-jacket after y’all mentioned how low his odds dropped.
@Liverpool Mike
Wacko Jacko’s not dead…
he faked it to cash in on the INSURANCE for his upcoming tour…
That’s right… DERIVATIVES…
after all, he was going to get sued for $40Mil due to his London concerts by some asshole promoter in Vegas (not allowed to perform before the Jackson Family reunion concert next year)….
So a fake death settles that crap in a hurry…
Now if you’ll excuse me,
I must be off to get my tin-foil hat refitted….
