Steve Israel, Is That You?

















That's the price of gold since early May. A precocious sixth grader could tell you that the commodity's performance is not correlated to Obama's Intrade numbers over the same period.

Regrettably, one of Putz's readers (who runs a hedge fund!), who is not, presumably, a sixth grader, puts forth a similar assertion about the Dow. And than has the audacity to complain that "no one in polite company is discussing" his retarded idea.

When Mr. Ehrmann wrote these words...

even the dull and the ignorant;
they too have their story.


...he could not have known just how prescient he was.
