Tax Day in the US provokes "Tea Party" protests

Yes! The US has elected an articulate, charismatic leader with integrity. Something we lacked for the past 8 years when we had the guy in office who recently had a shoe thrown at him while in Iraq.

However, not all is fine and dandy in the Good old US of A. The United States has Obama fever but that does not mean the conservatives and the right are sitting quietly the side lines as Obama does what he pleases.

Video perspective -- Marc Faber "get rid of your cash buy commodities while they are still cheap"

Not sure exactly where Mr. Faber gave these comments, or to whom he was giving them to but this no less seemed like a interesting video to post. I don't love the way Marc Faber chooses to express himself in some situations, and I definitely do not agree with a lot of what he says.

None the less, he is a guru or sorts in the commodity world and when his comments to some random Belgian reporter (I think at least) get posted on YouTube I think it falls to news blog sites like this one to share.
