NEW YORK -- California's sale of $800 million in general obligation bonds stirred investor interest, but not enough for a first-day sellout.

Meanwhile, a $500 million issue by the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey found good investor interest, thanks in part to tax exemption in New York and New Jersey.

Actually Davis uses his phoney Rolex lined trenchcoat to raise funds for this year's election. You don't dare go near the capitol during an election year, or he will come at you, corner, and open his trench coat. If you survive that hideous encounter, he has several hundred phoney Rolexs.

For a $1,000 contribution, he will give you a genuine signed phone Rolex, that says "Love XXX from Gray Boy!" He is very successful with these watches on Polk Street in San Francisco.

Actually, my family and friends say that I should be a once a week tv comedian for conservatives for a refreshing reality look at the left wingers. Of course with Fascist Davis, Burton and other Rat clowns in Sacramento, just the exposing their reality to conservatives is really funny.

Cutting humor is the best weapon we have with the lefties in Kali and the rest of America. If we had a real media, the political cartoons on Davis would have forced him out of office last year.

Is Liberty All Star Fund a real fund?

Met West Total Return Bond Fund, was one of these 5 star Morningstar funds that I spend my retired time to find. No one really knew about it except a few investors.

It consistantly equalled the 5 star Pimco Total Return Funds's performance and in some quarters out performed the Pimco funds. Then at the end of last summer, its returns and daily value started to slip. I put it on a watch list.

We decided to sell my wife's shares in November last year due to this wierd performance versus similiar funds. The day that I put in the sell order, the data that they had hired Goron as a phoney advisor came out. It was clear to me that the biggies and the retirement fund managers had an early warning on this and were selling the fund before Goron came in. This was driving down the NAV on the fund.

Any company or fund that is in bed with RATS is a company to be avoided and dumped if you own shares.

Liberty Asset Management Company

It's like a closed-end fund, symbol "USA".
