I think you're partly right.

The Bush/Greenspan economic policies give warm fuzzies in
the short run but will probably prove disastrous. US stock market
bulls are kidding themselves, with the exception of a small
number of unique stocks.

The economic fundamentals for shorting USD are well known,
and they are sound in my view. When we finally have to pay the
piper for monstrous government and private debt, it isn't going to
be pretty. Many are predicting a horrific bear market in the US,
and the more it is dragged out, the more painful it will be.

For my part, I will seek to profit from USD up and down swings
regardless of who is in the White House. I certainly won't be
surprised if more profits come from USD shorts than longs.
