bama Regime Denies Collusion with SEC, Goldman Sachs, Google April 20, 2010 Listen To It! WMP \| RealPlayer Audio clips available for Rush 24/7 members only -- Join Now! BEGIN TRANSCRIPT RUSH: The regime is denying any conspiracy between themselves and the SEC and Goldman Sachs over an effort to get this financial regulatory reform bill passed with Honest Obe heading to the Cooper Union Thursday in New York to make the first big pitch. Here is Rahm Emanuel last night on Charlie Rose. Charlie Rose said, "What's the impact of the SEC's complaint against Goldman Sachs on financial reform, and what argument are you making?" EMANUEL: Well, it's essential I make one point. It's an independent agency, acted independent. We had no knowledge of what they had done. ROSE: How was it that The New York Times knew about this before Goldman Sachs did, the filing of the complaint? EMANUEL: I have no idea. Everybody at the White House found out like everybody else, when it hit the news. ROSE: When it hit The New York Times, you had it. EMANUEL: No, when it hit the news, it is -- the SEC is an independent agency, operates independently. Nobody at the White House knew anything ahead of anybody else. RUSH: All right, now, as you digest that from the regime, "It's an independent agency, we had no idea what was going on here." "Well, how did New York Times get it before you did?" "I don't have any idea. It's an independent agency." New York Post today: "President Obama is bringing his war on Wall Street to the enemy's turf. He'll make his pitch for financial reform in the heart of lower Manhattan Thursday - even as his team make hay of the Goldman Sachs fiasco with a tech savvy appeal to Democratic donors." Now listen to this. "Internet surfers who entered 'Goldman Sachs SEC'" as a search term, Goldman Sachs, Securities Exchange Commission, "were directed to the president's campaign website via a sponsored link titled 'Help Change Wall Street.' The White House's political arm paid for the keywords -- but would not say how much." So this is pure Alinsky on steroids. This guy is incompetent to run the private sector but, boy, does he know how to agitate and community organize. They had no advance knowledge this was happening, but they happened to get hold of Google and they said, "Look, we want to buy the search terms 'Goldman Sachs SEC,' we want you to direct the first hit to our website where we are going to raise campaign funds and awareness of the effort to demonize Wall Street." Meanwhile, the White House continues to deny that there's any link between the timing of the SEC suit and its push for regulatory reform. Here's the smartest regime spokesman that we have ever had, Robert Gibbs yesterday afternoon in the White House, reporters said, "Can you talk about the Goldman Sachs story? Do you think the charges will galvanize the push for reform?" <MORE> rushlimbaugh.com
