Not sure what post you are referring to, but sounds like it might have been construed as political, no?

Just read the post. Um, yeah, it was political.

well appreciate the answer but trust me it was not even close to being political i am just a crazy european with absolutely no interest in US status quo politics ;-) just find it interesting how for instance pay rolls data suddenly got much worse after the elections sure the economy got worse and all that have just constantly had the feeling that data after the election were somehow closer to the perceived state of the economy

it was not even close to being political

When it's implied that the government puts out fraudulent economic data at times, probably few here would disagree.

But when you imply that only one side does it, it will cause an unwelcome political food fight every time.


IMHO.

It's still the same administration. It will be for 2 more weeks. :-)
Just try to keep the political stuff under your collar.

Thanks.

If you think politics does not affect markets, then I have a bridge in Minnesota for sale.
So long as a poster does not denigrate another poster, I don't see the problem in pointing
out political facts. JMO. You make the rules.

i see your point RD but i did not take sides, as i pointed out that it happened under bush and will happen again under obama bla bla - let's get on with our lives cheers ;-)

I don't see the problem in pointing out political facts.

There is a difference in facts and opinion and conjecture.

bla bla - let's get on with our lives

Yeah, I think that's Mark's experience here at TT.
Concentrate on Technical Traders Talk and discuss politics with your in-laws.

haha! that's how i (intentionally) got my mother-in-law to stop visiting for so long. seriously, after three days i started taking the other side of whatever. pretty soon, she would get on her broom and fly away. ™

I agree with relax, being aware of manipulation is important, otherwise you are just a sheeple. I never saw Martin Armstrong shy away from attacking the government or any other great analyst.
