Is the market right or wrong?
http://www.cnbc.com/2016/10/31/this-stock-market-metric-says-the-likely-winner-istrump.html

The stock market’s election year performance between July 31 and Oct. 31 has often accurately predicted the next president — and this year it’s pointing to a victory by Donald Trump, if history is a guide.

Yesterday Judith Collins was asked about her opinion of Silent T. She replied he was still a moron. At the same time every other politician said gushing words about the useless prick. Even JK had something nice to say.
This is one time when they could all have said nothing, Its better to say nothing than be seen as a hypocrite. Good on Judith for saying it as she saw it.

  On PH this morning Silent T was his usual insincere and vomit inducing self. He also mentioned Labour is ahead in the polls – if NZ First is taken out of the equation. If he is so confident of Labour winning the next election then why is he leaving? Judith Collins is a breath of fresh air in National, so unlike the other bland ones.

    He’s leaving to go and suck on the public tit as a consultant to Auckland city. No private company in their right mind would have anything to do with him. Once a liabore trougher, always a liabore trougher

    Some friends had a dog that liked to eat cow shit. An indication of different tastes I can relate to when I see or hear that type of praise for Judith Collins.
    
    Is that the same big, tough straight talker Collins too gutless to give a straight answer in Parliament yesterday ?
    (Said in the spirit of not being bland of course.)

    We are FOREVER hearing about how teachers are overworked, underpaid, underresourced, don’t have enough hours in the day, meeting national standards is an IMPOSSIBLE burden…
    
    …but the minute it suits them, there’s a whole day to spare on worthless Maoritonguer, pc, culturally sensitive, virtue-signalling CRAP like this. 😐
    
    My daughter was in there. She hated it. A whole day of standing around waiting to make a fool of herself. At least the teachers got paid though I guess..?

Cry me a river. The Gweens are up in arms because several coal mines on the West Coast are going to be reopened. That will bring back well overdue employment to a suppressed region.

The more that the soap dodging Luddites rant and rave about mining coal the less chance for them to keep their west coast seat.. Well not a real seat as they sneak in on the list.

    One of our cats is like that. She has everything that she needs (food, warmth, shelter, a loving family) and yet she is extremely nervous about her position as “top cat” and constantly bullies the other (submissive) animals. If she could simple “chill out,” she would enjoy life so much more.

  Funnily enough, that was said very much tongue in cheek, but it surely describes Clinton far more accurately.
  
  The corruption surrounding Clinton just grows and grows; pay for play, feed questions from TV debates in advance, allowed to lie on oath and not get pulled up for it…the list won’t stop growing. But the Democrats just can’t get their heads around it. They think she has “accomplishments” and “experience”, quite why I’ve never actually worked out as nobody yet has ever produced a list of those supposed “accomplishments” that don’t make me fall about laughing.

cant wait for this election.

i want to know if the media did their job and got the boss elected, or if there has been rampant oversampling and Trump is in front.

Hopefully trump wins. Hillary is simply evil. She will start a war. She will bring in a shit ton of muslim immigrants. She will keep going down this path of globalism. afterall, she dreams of a no borders etc

On the plus side, the dollar will stay weak under her which means more dollars for Dime.

But the poor middle class in the US will be well and truly fucked. Followed by the welfare class when daddy govt runs out of cash.

Either way, the media will be painful. It will be four years of listening to that shrill voice and seeing that bug eyed bitch stumble through public interactions..

or it will be four years of trump is the devil as they point out all the bad shit they have ignored under the hope & change failure.

oh yeah, stehpiebot – feel free not to comment on my posts with your garbage opinions.

  re War starting….
  
  Which candidate said…”lets bomb the shit out of them” and ” why can’t we use nukes”.
  
  Also , you seem like a smart guy, what will the effect on the US economy of taxes being slashed but state expenditure increasing whilst starting trade wars and pushing up the price of imported goods…(all explicit trump policy).
  
  Plus, I’m not sue the US forcing the world economy down an anti globalisation route will be particularly good for us in NZ.
  
  And before you say Clinton is the devil etc etc, I don’t give a fuck about Clinton, but the fact is she is actually probably going to achieve fuck all for the next 4 years as president until a real Republican takes over in 2020…a much more preferable scenario

    Clinton has said that a cyber attack from russia requires a proper response. including a military response.
    
    She blames russia for wikileaks even though it wasnt them. soooo next time she gets hacked and exposed, the US goes to war against russia? YIKES!
    
    She created ISIS ffs.
    
    She will start a war.
    
    Globalism & the TPP is a good thing for NZ, in the short term.
    
    As for achieving fuck all, i guess just a bunch of favours, arming countries who donate to her foundation and no doubt borrowing another 5-10 trillion…
    
    4 years of clinton – she should be able to get 500,000 muslim “refugees” into the country?

    US companies have $2.1 Trillion in cash held offshore. Trump wants to create an environment where those companies invest that money in the US and create jobs.
    So lowering taxes means the money comes back which mean more jobs which means more taxes paid- or so goes his theory. He has a point. Rich people create jobs.
    The Tariffs are the stick part to make it uneconomic to manufacture offshore, tax cuts the carrot.

      I understand the third form economic thinking with respect to his policy. It’s just that serious economic analysis show this to be deeply wrong. There are many reasons manufacturing has changed in the US, the use of Tarifs and running a massive deficit to reverse the US to a 1950’s utopia is ridiculous.

        The idea of 35% tariffs is an insane one . If implemented it will make the cost of imports and living soar and hurt especiall]y Trump’s vote base of poor whites in the rust belts and elsewhere .
        
        Revving manufacturing is a nice idea subject to a great deal of rhetoric especially with the advent of AI , robotics, and automation job crunching in mind .

      Also. I can accept the corporate tax cuts as an argument to incentivise, but he is not cutting expenditure in a budget which is trillions in the red. The short term economic implications of this are frightening and there is no way his unlikely increase n growth will either happen or happen quickly enough to mitigate major fiscal problems .

        It sure is a big number but in the scheme of things the US debt is manageable. Surprisingly their Tax take is Yuge. Someone really needs to balance the budget first .
        Oh and most ‘economic analysis’ I’ve seen of Trumps ideas is the usual Keynesian rubbish, well what passes for Keynesian today.
        I suspect Trump is more in the ‘Supply creates its own demand’ camp. Having 2 Trillion come home sure as heck means the Govt doesn’t have to stump up with any stimulous cash.

As our own proud Muslim stephieboy says: Yes, they are lone wolves.
http://www.breitbart.com/national-security/2016/11/01/islamic-state-linked-magazine-urges-lone-wolf-attacks-west-avenge-mosul/

An Islamic State (ISIS)-linked propaganda magazine, published in English, Arabic, and French by the Nashir Media Foundation, is urging jihadists in Europe and the United States to carry out deadly “lone-wolf” attacks to avenge the terrorist group’s losses in Mosul.

      Maggy Wassilief , you seem to have a hangup anything “progressive “. Possibly it may unsettle your climate denial aspirations ?
      
      BTW the Fabian Society were originally a group who repudiated Marxist and violent Communist revolutionary ideology favouring the ballot box to achieve socialist policies and reforms .
      
      Most of their ideas and policies bore fruit in 1935 with first Labour government ,largely retained by the first National Government and much of which is still with us today . ( e.g public health and education system )

Who will light the fuse of this powder keg?
http://cnsnews.com/news/article/patrick-goodenough/13210-syrian-refugees-admitted-year-through-october-675-99-are

The Obama administration has resettled 13,210 Syrian refugees into the United States since the beginning of 2016 – an increase of 675% over the same 10-month period in 2015.

Of those, 13,100 (99.1%) are Muslims – 12,966 Sunnis, 24 Shi’a, and 110 other Muslims – and 77 (0.5%) are Christians. Another 24 (0.18%) are Yazidis.

‘Overt (and dark) misogyny parading as acceptable copywriting spotted in a 1975 Matamata Chronicle, by Mike Bain. (Thank goodness we only have to deal with infantilising female body parts and environmentally friendly transport analogies these days).’

http://www.nzherald.co.nz/entertainment/news/article.cfm?c_id=1501119&objectid=11740062

I feel there is a gap in my school cert education; can someone, who has wider reading, explain this feminazi Prius driver analogy please?

  Useless information. Harry Baker had the Matamata Chronicle in those days. He sold out to Fairfax, who are now turning what used to be a money spinner into a loser. The commercial printing division of the Chronicle became Tainui Press. Bardsley’s no longer do panelbeating, and their phone number has been taken over by Tainui Press.
  I had wanted to be a journalist and had submitted some reports to the Chronicle 52- 53 years ago. The school principal summoned me to his office to reprimand me on one of my reports. I decided that journalism was not for me.

They are not “kiwis”. They are Muslim genocidists and everyone of the fuckers who planned to go to Syria should be stripped of their citizenship ( if they have that) and deported back to whatever shit hole we let them in from.

This story got 20 lines , on page 3 of the ODT . Buried . Nothing to see here , move along or we’ll charge you with racism, Islampophobia , xenophobia , nationalism or some other “hate” or thought crime .

Meanwhile our government keeps importing more recruits to the next wave of “militants”, which is press speak for genocidal terrorist.

Here’s the reason, courtesy of the (((Reid/EAD))) school of conspiracy – and despite tom hunter’s faithless reluctance to commit emotionally as a true fan should – that the Chigago Cubs will win today’s game six, and then tomorrow’s scheduled game seven in the World Series:

  I already have committed to the Cubs winning, even in this situation. I think they’ll win again today to even the series 3-3.
  
  But … game 7…. Kluber. Yeah! Still, they’ll have seen him three times by then. Can a team batting that well get shut down again? I think they might get to him.

        Fernglas: the usual scenario is the child has committed a minor transgression like whinge for a cookie.
        Out comes the jandal and the parent beats the kid (often as young as 2) over the head with it.
        All the while the child is expected to stifle it’s crying and bow it’s head in submission.

Another political show trial in formerly free Europe.

“Wilders announced his intention to boycott the trial on Friday in a column for the AD newspaper in which he claimed he spoke for “millions of Dutch people, fed up with the disruption and terror caused by so many Moroccans … If talking about that is an offence, the Netherlands is no longer a free country, but a dictatorship”. ‘

Over on the latest Trump thread I put in a link to a Mark Steyn piece about Weiner and company – Occam’s Weiner. But the following quote seems more appropriate to GD. In a previous article Steyn had compared Bill Clinton to Bill Cosby, and this drew an angry response…

Cosby drugged women you asshole

Larry A Feig, PhD
Professor of Developmental, Molecular & Chemical Biology
Sackler School of Graduate Biomedical Sciences
Tufts University

Steyn’s reply is priceless…

I’m not a PhD, but I think there should be a comma between “drugged women” and “you asshole”.

Two points to Professor Feig:

1) You should have sent your response to Hillary campaign official Ron Klain, senior foreign policy advisor Jake Sullivan and campaign chair John Podesta, who were the ones trying to agree a line on this particular topic.

2) Still, thanks for giving us the view from one of America’s most prestigious safe spaces. If I understand Professor Feig correctly, the critical distinction is that it’s totally unacceptable to sedate your victims so they wake up afterwards wondering what the hell happened, as opposed to ensuring they remain conscious for every violent, traumatic moment of the rape. “Zzzzzz” means “no”, but “no” means “sure, go for it, just make sure I stay awake.”

You might want to put some ice on that theory, professor.

The great thing about part of the alt-right movement is the humour and intelligence of those involved. Compare and contrast with the shrill voices of SJW’s and you can see the attraction of this new movement. We’ve been absolutely killing the SJW’s in the memetic warfare on Social Media.

This memetic warfare is being used to wear-down and disorientate liberals by pointing out the lunacy of supporting Hillary, they won’t vote for Trump, but with all the issues surrounding Clinton they might decide to just sit at home instead of voting at all.

The Daily Stormer has developed a clever collection of memes along the lines of Hillary winning and then America sending their newly empowered feminist/diversity army into battle against the Russians in Siberia, it’s insane, but that is essentially what a Clinton victory will mean.

I might be biased, but some of these are absolutely stunning in their effectiveness:

To all those who say that there is no way that such an evil, awful, terrible person as Trump could win – then I suggest that you line up a councillor or a
psychiatrist or a shrink or an analyst or even a hypnotist would be able to help (you forget that it ever happened). Because its looking quite likely that he just might pull through.

And dont be like the ‘Stay’ people in the UK whose only reaction to Brexit was “they must be mad” – rather than to ask why………..

    Gatland also proves what insecure drop kicks fans of the NZ rugby team are. Gatland points out the blindingly obvious and straight away narrow minded Kiwi’s start attacking him. I agree, it is damn embarrassing being a New Zealander.

    Gatland just putting in some groundwork for after he has his arse handed to him in the test series.
    He is on a million quid gig for the lions and would want to limit the damage to his rep!

  3-0 to the All Blacks over Wales earlier this year.
  Gatland gets his next chance to prove this next year. If the Lions win even one of the three tests I will be impressed.

    Amazing they have only ever won 6 tests in over 100 years, and eleven tours…and two of those wins were by that great 1971 Lions side – the only British and Irish side to win a series.
    
    And of the individual home countries, only England has won – on two occasions, in 1973 and 2002. A thoroughly deserved those wins.
    
    Mind you the first test my dad ever saw was the flagrant piece of bare day-light robbery of a first test in 1959 at Carisbrook. Don Clarke 18 (6 penalties) Lions 17 (including four tries!)

Mamma Merkel will be out of office in 2017:
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3893436/Angela-Merkel-pressure-refugee-policy-revealed-migrants-committed-142-500-crimes-Germany-six-months-2016.html

Migrants in Germany have committed 142,500 crimes in just six months, police figures have revealed. This was the equivalent of 780 crimes a day – an increase of nearly 40% over 2015, according to data from Germany’s Federal Criminal Police Office

It comes as German chancellor Angela Merkel remains under pressure over her open-door policy on immigration amid concerns over how to integrate 900,000 newcomers who arrived last year.

  What Westerners need to realize is the difference in thinking between them and the refugees.
  “An English man’s (or German’s etc) home is his castle” does not hold with the rest of the planet.
  Quite the opposite.
  The guest is king, and they are entitled to empty your fridge, pinch your wallet and seduce (or molest) your wife and daughters, and you cannot complain.
  Don’t ever expect gratitude for saving them.
  It is an alien concept in their cultures.
  The more intelligent may learn, but most will not.

  But still left a man on 3rd base. I know I sound like a broken record here but why didn’t Contreras bunt him home, considering he’s not hitting well? This is the World Series and every run is precious.
  
  Besides, Cy Young winner and all, I’ve not been as confident in Arrieta as his numbers and reputation would suggest.
  
  Let’s see what he does with a three run lead. Of all the Indian batters, I’d love to see Lindor shut down. I think they get a charge off him.

  And quicker than anyone can mention the words, “Steve Bartman”, the Cubs still need three more outs…
  
  …although with that latest home run and a 2nd RBI, and a 9-2 lead, not even a herd of billy goats should stop this going to game 7

  Manolo, we agree on a lot of things, but I don’t see why it is important that women are allowed to become priests. The priest is supposed to represent Christ in his role and it also has a lot to do with the Church being the Bride of Christ.
  
  If a movie was going to be made about the life of (say) Abraham Lincoln, would anyone object if the studio chose a man over a woman to play the lead role? Meryl Streep just wouldn’t fit the bill.

Hillary just can’t keep herself from lying. She is just so used to doing it. She just claimed she was in New York on 9/11 and it’s a fact that she wasn’t.

“I know what happened not far from here at Pulse night club in Orlando,” she said. “I was in New York City on 9/11 as one of the two senators. I will defeat ISIS. I will protect America.”

But Clinton wasn’t in New York on 9/11, according to Politico.

As a United States Senator she was in Washington D.C. at her home in Whitehaven when the first plane hit the World Trade Center. She spent most of the day reacting to the attacks in media interviews and joined her colleagues singing “God Bless America” on the Capitol Hill steps.

Clinton flew to New York on September 12, after making a speech on the Senate Floor in the morning. She traveled with her fellow New York Senator Chuck Schumer and Democratic Congressman Charlie Rangel.

  He’s getting some airtime over the alternate media on this. He says he knows the NSA has got the “deleted” 30k emails and he’s almost certainly right, since this is what the NSA does.
  
  Then he also says he knows how to apply to get them legally and this is where the reports normally tail off…

  two alleged British agents, Anna Chapman and Huma Abedin, have been setting up sexual honeypots with children procured through SBA 8(a) company networks to entrap and blackmail erstwhile cabinet members of the Clinton, Bush and Obama administrations.
  
  Abel Danger (AD) claims that Clinton Foundation donors use 8(a) servers for online assassination betting and the trade in child pornography and torture killings as first staged in 1996 at pig farm raves in B.C. allegedly sponsored by so-called ‘Libranos’ in the Canadian government.

The “smoking gun” of criminal intent has been revealed via WikiLeaks, proving that Hillary Clinton deliberately engaged in felony Obstruction of Justice by deleting emails under Subpoena by the US House of Representatives.

Moreover, she did so at the behest of her Campaign Chairman, John Podesta, with the full knowledge of her attorney Marc Elias of the law firm Perkins Coie, the full knowledge of former State Department Chief of Staff (and attorney) Cheryl Mills, and Hillary’s Campaign Manager, Robby Mook.

In today’s, 25th, Wikileaks release of hacked Podesta emails, one of the notable highlights is a March 2, 2015 exchange between John Podesta and Clinton aide Cheryl Mills in which the Clinton Campaign Chair says

“On another matter….and not to sound like Lanny, but we are going to have to dump all those emails.”

The email, which seems to indicate intent, was sent at the same time as the NYT story “Hillary Clinton Used Personal Email Account at State Dept., Possibly Breaking Rules” – which for the first time revealed the existence of Hillary’s email server – hit…

Given these revelations, some in the general public might come to the opinion that these high-and-mighty people, Hillary Clinton, Cheryl Mills, Marc Elias, John Podesta, Robby Mook, Barack Obama et. al. are nothing more than criminal thug pieces of shit. It might be interesting if they began being treated exactly that way when they’re in public.

Until the Friday blockbuster news that the FBI was reopening its probe into the Hillary email server, the biggest overhang facing the Clinton Campaign was the escalating scandal involving the Clinton Foundation, Doug Band’s consultancy firm Teneo, and Bill Clinton who as a result of a leaked memo emerged was generously compensated for potential political favors by prominent corporate clients using Teneo as a passthru vehicle for purchasing influence.

In a section of the memo entitled “Leveraging Teneo For The Foundation,” Band spelled out all of the donations he solicited from Teneo “clients” for the Clinton Foundation. In all, there are roughly $14mm of donations listed with the largest contributors being Coca-Cola, Barclays, The Rockefeller Foundation and Laureate International Universities…

  Any other public figure I would feel sorry for, but it’s quite obvious Clinton is an A-Grade (gender neutral) cunt*. And to think, people vote actually for her!

  Yes that was a very dirty deal Zed. You know Rich’s connections to the Russian Mafia? Which is very interesting, isn’t it, given Killary’s apparent abhorrence of all-things Russia. Maybe it’s all an act. A mystery inside an enigma wrapped in a riddle.

    HA! that will be the day!
    
    Assange was the left’s darling when he exposed the Bush administration but now he’s the enemy.
    
    The left’s attitude reminds me of the movie ‘Fair Game’ among many others that are anti-establishment but only when the establishment is republican/conservative; yet not a single Hollywood movie criticized Obama’s administration during the past 8 years; then suddenly I realise: HE DID NOTHING WRONG! How COULD THE BLACK MESSIAH DO ANYTHING WRONG…except of course under his watch the NSA is spying on the American public, drones are killing more and more people, US govt. is smuggling millions in cash to Iran, not to mention lying about closing Gitmo, etc… Bah!

      Assange is Mossad. Mossad wants Trump. The question is: why.

        The question is,
        Does ISIS want Trump?

        Hard to explain my opinions on it (as I rely on instantaneous reaction to most news) but I will try:
        
        Iraq – was destroyed by American politicking to begin with – by destabilizing the middle east with the arrest and execution of Saddam, there was a power void that has been filled by religious militia where there was none before.
        
        Afghanistan – while a shit hole, has been occupied by American forces since GWB in retaliation for 911, even though 911 was sponsored by Saudi Arabia.
        
        IRAN – (in caps for a reason) Believes America is the Satan of the West! Yet has been given the green light to commence nuclear reactions and research by the Obama Government.
        
        Egypt, Turkey. Syria, Arabia, several more countries – General Islamic rule, Massive curtailing of individual freedom, etc etc etc
        
        +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
        
        There’s so much shit going on it’s hard to know what to think anymore.

FBI Director James Comey reopened the agency’s investigation into Hillary Clinton’s emails last week because “almost 100” agents threatened to resign before next week’s election, former House Majority Leader Tom DeLay told Newsmax TV.

http://www.newsmax.com/Newsmax-Tv/tom-delay-email-probe-fbi-agents/2016/11/01/id/756491/

Imagine that. 100 agents. Even Killary’s MSM couldn’t cover up that story.

And it’s a former House Majority Leader saying this.

Get the feeling there’s a long term plan in play? Everyone’s playing their part? Not the useful idiots of course. They know nothing. They’re just doing their job?

Of course not.

The fix could be in with the FBI. The DOJ has gotten involved, but there’s a problem. John Podesta’s best friend at The DOJ will be in charge of the DOJ’s probe into Huma Abedin emails. You couldn’t write this stuff.

  That was the main reason I suggested civil war could be a very real reaction to Hillary:
  
  A: Getting pardoned
  B: Avoiding Impeachment
  
  That would be a final kick in the guts to average Americans

    Inciting the mob to burn the witch to purify the colony is a Halloween to Thanksgiving, New World order reborn sort of thing.
    
    Generations of inbred puritans of the same intellectual depth as per usual, once they believed what they read in one book, now whatever BS they read on-line.

      Rather shattering to see your old worldview go up in flames as everything you thought was true, sacred and just goes up in flames SPC?
      
      Or not really?
      
      It’s not like that at all?

      It’s not the witch that I am worried about SPC. it’s the division of country by the elites.
      
      If one can die to cure the ills of 300 million, then kill the one.
      
      She’s not an innocent babe borne today to a great country.
      
      As a father – to kill one to save 300 million?
      Drown the bitch is my answer

    Yes. And the issue for Obama is: he needs to pardon Killary in order to avoid impeachment.
    
    Oh dear!

It’s a well known fact that the inventor of the highway safety device ‘cats eyes’ was inspired when he saw a cat walking towards him & its eyes reflected the light.

However, it’s largely been assumed that, if the cat had been walking in the opposite direction he would have gone on to invent the pencil sharpener.
