Thank you, enjoy your day. God Bless America! Why thank you. I forget that DV has become global. Enjoy your special days too!

Happy Independence Day to each and everyone of you! May your day be filled with celebration, happiness and all that you love and enjoy. I will be thinking of and be grateful to all Americans tomorrow but expecially our courageous Forefathers and endless patriots. "The name of AMERICAN, which belongs to you, in your national capacity, must always exalt the just pride of Patriotism, more than any appellation derived from local discriminations." "My ardent desire is, and my aim has been, to comply strictly with all our engagements, foreign and domestic; but to keep the United States free from political connections with every other country, to see them independent of all and under the influence of none." -President George Washington God Bless America!

Thank you and may you all enjoy this our special day! Happy Indepedence Day! God Bless America!

Greetings Bumper, I received this from AC in my email this morning or last night. I thought well, he is the only one who has not predicted the Revalution tomorrow or any day at all. In fact he has always downplayed it according to information accumulated right there in Iraq. At one time I gritted my teeth and thought he was rather negative but after four or five years it does not appear that he was anything but honest and right on target. Take care all and keep keeping on..one of these days the Blessings will come and make it all worthwhile. Meanwhile enjoy life to its fullest. God Bless America, now and forever!

But If only the economy was the problem. And then there is this .... US ARMY CELEBRATES 237 YEARS OF SERVICE HONOR OUR TROOPS TODAY! 1775-2012 Please take some time today to honor our troops. Not only is today "Flag Day", commemorating our adoption of the Stars and Stripes, it's also the birthday of the US Army. In 1775 the 2nd Continental Congress in Philadelphia officially recognized the need for a formal continental army and ordered a committee be formed to organize the drafting and provisioning of the first US Army. It has served bravely ever since, protecting our Nation in conflict after conflict. Help celebrate the Army's 237th birthday by sending some care packages to some of our troops in Afghanistan who really need our help!" WHAT IS ANSWER THE CALL AND HOW DOES IT WORK? "Every summer, Move America Forward spends a month focusing on supporting one particular unit deployed in Afghanistan. We select this unit based on the difficulty of their mission and the danger level in the region of Afghanistan in which they are fighting. We have selected 800 Soldiers from the 17th Infantry Regiment to support and we'll continue raising money until we have enough to send support to all 800 of these troops who are operating in one of the most dangerous provinces in Afghanistan. So far we have raised enough to help only 379 troops - that means 421 soldiers in Afghanistan will receive nothing unless people sponsor more packages now! The Soldiers of the 17th Infantry are fighting to defeat the Taliban and Al Qaeda. We must support them!" PRESIDENT OBAMA ABSENT FROM WREATH-LAYING CEREMONY *AGAIN* Army Secretary John McHugh participated in the traditional wreath-laying ceremony at Arlington National Cemetery to mark the Army's 237th birthday. President Obama was in Cleveland, Ohio raising money for his own re-election campaign and later in New York with actress Sarah Jessica Parker, also fundraising for his campaign. U.S. troops return to Afghanistan's "lost province" With U.S. intelligence pointing to a possible attack by as many as 1,800 Taliban, the soldiers set up weapons over a backyard-sized square, while Afghan army soldiers in camouflage and plastic sandals pointed out fires and torchlight in the distance in the chill night air. "We'll get some eyes overhead to check it out. If it's Taliban, we'll get a plane up in the morning and drop a bomb on it," said U.S. Major Jared Bordwell as some of his men from the Infantry Regiment dropped down in the dust and tried to get some sleep. American soldiers withdrew from Nuristan, or the "land of light", after around 300 insurgents overran an isolated combat outpost near Kamdesh village - below where Bordwell's men were huddled - on October 3, 2009, killing eight soldiers and wounding 22. As many as 2,500 Taliban are thought to be in the province, controlling most districts, and around 300 are foreign, mostly Pakistanis or Chechens, Afghan commanders say." - 06/13/2012 Reuters OUR TROOPS ARE RETURNING TO RECLAIM THE GROUND THEY GAVE UP IN 2009. SUPPORT THEIR FIGHT IN THIS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS AND REMOTE AREA! The 17th Infantry Regiment, part of 2nd Stryker Brigade, 2nd Infantry Division is a group of Army combat teams "responsible for ground operations" in the very dangerous Kandahar province, and surrounding areas, specifically areas on the wild and lawless Afghanistan/Pakistan border, where the the last vestiges of Al-Qaeda hide. " Never mind do not even think about this of give a thouight to those continuing to battle for your freedom as you just sit and gripe about the economy or the fact that you feel President Bush supposedly ruined. "Those who would sacrifice freedom for security deserve neither". -Benjamin Franklin. God Bless America!

Frank, Frank, Frank you dear one we have hoped and prayed with you for years. Let us hope we are finally there!

Thank you, friend.

Let's see 1117 IQD against the USD that would be almost a one to one exchange rate. It makes one wonder why rates remain unchanged on the CBI site? The IQD rate must go down for it to revalue. This was a very interesting article. The US Dollar remains king everywhere.

Woody, thank you for this post. Will wonders ever cease?..and the wheels on the train go round and round! Government is not reason, it is not eloquence. It is force, and like fire, it is a dangerous servant and a fearful master. Government is not reason, it is not eloquence. It is force, and like fire, it is a dangerous servant and a fearful master. --George Washington

I also saw this change at 5:30 AM in my time zone when I checked CBI site. I was not impressed and just exhaled. We are not there yet but things are changing. I know certainly that this will not be our revaluation exchange rate however someone over there is an expert in throwing up the veils of secrecy. I find it interesting that CBI is publicly teasing the world especially right now God Bless America!.

Days? How about years? Smoke and mirrors each time an excuse is needed. to delay the revaluation of the IQD.

Thank you! I love this countriy in spite of the fact we all have some work to do. It is a matter of every American understanding his or her own responsibility in the running of our country and our government. After all there is no point crying over spilled milk of you allow the tempermental child to reoeatedly spill it just for the fun of determing how many times he or she can break the rule of law. “It is better to remain silent and be thought a fool han to open one's mouth and remove all doubt.” -Lincoln)

Perhaps your thoughts have much merit. But then when we consider those who protect our many Happy New Year Blessings through the centuries it seems we forget special people from time to time. God Bless America and our protectors!

After seven years one would think that we might skip reading the blogs at all. However here you are and here I am. Yes it would be lovely if the Iraqi Dinar revalued right here and right now! Blessings all and I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas and will have a Happy New Year! God Bless America! I am certain the Iraqi Dinar will fly one day that is one day soon! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A7mb102V1F0

Entertainment value was there....Woody, but those of us who know you knew exactly what you were posting. It proved everyone was still reading!

GOD BLESS AMERICA!

Happy Thanksgiving to everyone! God Bless America!

Yes it was! What a night it was!

BCB goodness on this date 2009 we never thought we would still be waiting today for the revaluation of the IQD. . However as your boss says, 'FAITH DOES MOVE MOUNTAINS!" and I agree! So let's move that mountain!

Nice to see this post Ron. Also it is nice to see you and Woody 'keeping the peace.' Bless you both! "Because you have so little faith. I tell you the truth, if you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, 'Move from here to there' and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you." (Jesus found in Matthew 17:20.)

Dong Falls to Four-Month Low as Vietnam May Boost Gold Imports QByBloomberg News - Aug 22, 2011 2:44 AM PT The Vietnamese dong fell to a four- month low on speculation the nation will allow more gold imports to cool local prices, widening the trade deficit. Government bonds fell. The State Bank of Vietnam permitted local companies on Aug. 9 to buy a total five metric tons of gold after domestic bullion prices surged to a record. The bank has indicated it may let businesses import an additional five tons to meet demand. The trade shortfall was $6.6 billion in the seven months through July, according to government data. The central bank “may carry out a second official import of gold in order to cool down” the market and discourage illegal imports, ACB Securities Inc. said in a report dated Aug. 19. “This may have a negative impact on the trade balance.” The dong fell 0.2 percent to 20,820 per dollar as of 2:47 p.m. in Hanoi, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. The currency has weakened 1.2 percent this month, headed for the biggest decline since February. The central bank set the dong-dollar reference rate at 20,618 today, unchanged since Aug. 10, according to its website. The local currency is allowed to trade up to 1 percent on either side of the fixing. International gold prices rose for a sixth day to an all- time high as a global economic slowdown bolstered demand for safer assets. Immediate-delivery bullion gained as much as 1.6 percent to $1,882.55 an ounce, and traded at $1,881.50 at 2:14 p.m. in Singapore. In Vietnam, gold rose to as high as 48.75 million dong ($2,341) per tael in Hanoi as of 2:30 p.m. local time, according to information from Vietnam Posts and Telecommunications. One tael is about 1.2 ounces. The yield on Vietnam’s five-year bonds climbed seven basis points, or 0.07 percentage point, to 12.57 percent, according to a daily fixing price from banks compiled by Bloomberg. http://www.bloomberg...ld-imports.html For two weeks in a row the leader of Viet Nam and the Central Bank said they were going to raise the rate of the Dong. It was indicated tht the Dong would be pegged to US Dollar. So much for the changes that were on the way. I ws very excited about ths but I must say that I am disapponted in still another devaluation of the (VND) Dong.

This kind of news has been coming out of Iraq for years now. It is wonderful that they are getting 13 dinars per dollar. I think that it is about time that we receive $13.00 per dinar. Just sayin how long does it take Iraq to accrue the trillions they claim to need? Aw do not debate the economy or this and that for we all know their economy has been sitting on our American shoulders for 10 years now. Yes! $13.00 per Dinar that sounds fair to me. God Bless America!

Does this mean what I think it could mean? It sounds rather odd. Is this an unusual statement from CBI? God Bless America!
