speed Sure was, didn't have his safety belt on when it crashed, just about killed him. Even made a PSA, "I should be dead". Apparently he has a closet full of pictures of every other politician's closet. The TARP trillion not going to buy the toxic assets cranked up my cynical detector to full. Had a conversation on another thread that TARP really did buy toxic assets, because TARP went to buying stocks of banks which he viewed as toxic assets. No, the bank stocks were bought to prop up the stock price so the bankers' underwater bonus options wouldn't expire worthless. AIG was only bailed out because they owed Goldman Sachs billions, Geitner use to work for Goldman Sachs. Elizabeth Warren was chairman of the TARP oversight committee while the billions were passed out to pay WallStreet bonuses, does anyone really think she gives a shit about you and me? Meanwhile, all of the toxic assets remain on the books today. It's clear to me Bush and Obama knows who owns our government, as does the majority of the house and senate. That's why the TeaParty has a backing. It's not business as usual..... The robbing of Americans of their tax money that began under TARP, continues today. Geitner and Bernanke are still writing the checks Obama signs. Boehner and Reid are just as guilty for not stopping it. It continues today, listen to any CNBC broadcast. "We need to recapitalize banks". Translation: "the banks have been robbed, we need to refill them so we can continue robbing them." All this talk about saving the banks, it never is mentioned where did the money go. All we're fed it "It's too big to fail", or "the financial system will crash" Ok, end of my rant. Have a good weekend.
