A politically incorrect pamphlet hitting on all the unspeakable stuff: Politics. Economics. Fiscal Policy. Foreign Policy. Moral Issues. Culture. Investments. Religion. Humor. Life.
WTF? Didn't we just have a chance to vote out all these crooks in January? We knew all this in January. What happened? Nothing. America is the "Land of the Great Crying Vagina"!
Nothing will happen until we lose our two car garage and flat screen TVs. Give it 20-30 years, then all hell will break loose. We have already made sure of it.
Amexico will not be the same for future generations.
I lived in CT for 10 years and I have worked in MA for 20 years. Dodd and Frank will never be voted out of office. Why? Because they keep the pork coming to their districts. My friends in Ct and MA acknowledge that both are corrupt pigs. But, as my friends say, "they are our corrupt pigs."
Term limits could have saved us. But now, its too late.
The other Bernie, Bernie Sanders, has blocked one of Obama's cabinet picks! Are we turning the corner on corruption? What out Bernie!
Gary Gensler, the former Goldman Sachs employee and derivatives cheerleader who President Obama nominated to head the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC). Gensler’s nomination sailed through the Senate Agricultural Committee but Senator Bernie Sanders has placed a hold on the nomination (as has a second senator who is as yet unnamed).
While Mr. Gensler is clearly an intelligent and knowledgeable person, I cannot support his nomination. Mr. Gensler worked with Sen. Phil Gramm and Alan Greenspan to exempt credit default swaps from regulation, which led to the collapse of A.I.G. and has resulted in the largest taxpayer bailout in U.S. history. He supported Gramm-Leach-Bliley, which allowed banks like Citigroup to become “too big to fail.” He worked to deregulate electronic energy trading, which led to the downfall of Enron and the spike in energy prices. At this moment in our history, we need an independent leader who will help create a new culture in the financial marketplace and move us away from the greed, recklessness and illegal behavior which has caused so much harm to our economy.
Sorry, i'm in the 2nd district. Frank is in http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barney_Frank
Massachusetts politics are pathetic. Incumbents easily dig themselves in forever, tighter than a tig on a hairy dog in August. 95% of politicians all have the same backgrounds .. irish or italians. They are all cut out from the same two cookie cutter molds. Decade after decade after decade, the same little crowd. Boston (a very small city) constantly tries to dominate the entire state political machine. Massachusets & Boston is the poster chlild for political systems that get dominated by 1 party and all the rules get rigged to totally protect the incumbents. Sickening, really. Every year I do the same, to no avail. I vote against every incumbent, and they always win reelection. Until they die in office or turn 100. They own us. In this case, Frank has been in for nearly 30 years. What a joke.
Yes the coruption has been going on for years ,but this time they went to far .
Anybody with half a brain would of known that Paulson was bailing out his buddies and himself . Paulson would of got sued for misrepresentation when the shit hit the fan with the crash .
All the players in this drama went to far this time .
How about arresting them for mass corruption and treason?

not worth it.
ReplyDeleteanyone doing so would be branded as someone who hates the mentally handicapped.
OMG, obama used a teleprompter during his latest press conference.
ReplyDeleteDue to years of media conditioning, this country has widespread Attention Deficit Disorder.
ReplyDeleteWe can't 'recall' anything...
Hell, we couldn't even pay attention to an exploding deficit.
Removing Dodd & Frank = 2 down 533 to go.
