Very good article. Thanks for posting. It was orchestrated to create an artificial construct, to give the propagandists a theme to amplify. It served its purpose and continues to propel an agenda.

If nothing else, we’ll be seeing Democrats and their manipulators in a perp-walk five wide and a dozen deep before the year is out. If ever history justified a public lynching, this story going viral will do the trick. The end of the DNC stranglehold on THE PEOPLE is the icing on the cake. This is WHO THEY ARE, people!

People.....start demanding that our government tell us how this happened and who was responsible. We have the right to know. If it was Soros and the Arabs, tell us. If they don’t tell us, shut them down and do it now. I wouldn’t mind if the military went in and ran the country until we can fix what is going on. Enough is enough.

I think the Middle East was in on it too, Look at Oil Prices, they rose at the same rate at the same time, it was the Primmer, they had to force people to default in HUGE numbers, what better way than tripling the price of Gas and Oil?

The Oil Speculators who were jackin the Oil Prices were in on it too.

It was ALL a DELIBERATE Attack on the US and on the Free world. To think anything else is literally just burying one’s head in the sand.

The run was not caused by any one individual. People with bank deposits in excess of the FDIC insurance levels became concerned their deposits were at risk and began moving money out of banks. The government responded by temporarily increasing the dollar amount of deposts protected by the FDIC and moved to insure money market accounts as well.

Right. Right. and Right.

Sudden disaster ... in one hour so great a nation has fallen.
Revelations 18:4-19
Revelation 18:4-19 (New King James Version)
4 And I heard another voice from heaven saying, “Come out of her, my people, lest you share in her sins, and lest you receive of her plagues. 5 For her sins have reached[a] to heaven, and God has remembered her iniquities. 6 Render to her just as she rendered to you,[b] and repay her double according to her works; in the cup which she has mixed, mix double for her. 7 In the measure that she glorified herself and lived luxuriously, in the same measure give her torment and sorrow; for she says in her heart, ‘I sit as queen, and am no widow, and will not see sorrow.’ 8 Therefore her plagues will come in one day—death and mourning and famine. And she will be utterly burned with fire, for strong is the Lord God who judges[c] her.

The World Mourns Babylon’s Fall

9 “The kings of the earth who committed fornication and lived luxuriously with her will weep and lament for her, when they see the smoke of her burning, 10 standing at a distance for fear of her torment, saying, ‘Alas, alas, that great city Babylon, that mighty city! For in one hour your judgment has come.’
11 “And the merchants of the earth will weep and mourn over her, for no one buys their merchandise anymore: 12 merchandise of gold and silver, precious stones and pearls, fine linen and purple, silk and scarlet, every kind of citron wood, every kind of object of ivory, every kind of object of most precious wood, bronze, iron, and marble; 13 and cinnamon and incense, fragrant oil and frankincense, wine and oil, fine flour and wheat, cattle and sheep, horses and chariots, and bodies and souls of men. 14 The fruit that your soul longed for has gone from you, and all the things which are rich and splendid have gone from you,[d] and you shall find them no more at all. 15 The merchants of these things, who became rich by her, will stand at a distance for fear of her torment, weeping and wailing, 16 and saying, ‘Alas, alas, that great city that was clothed in fine linen, purple, and scarlet, and adorned with gold and precious stones and pearls! 17 For in one hour such great riches came to nothing.’ Every shipmaster, all who travel by ship, sailors, and as many as trade on the sea, stood at a distance 18 and cried out when they saw the smoke of her burning, saying, ‘What is like this great city?’
19 “They threw dust on their heads and cried out, weeping and wailing, and saying, ‘Alas, alas, that great city, in which all who had ships on the sea became rich by her wealth! For in one hour she is made desolate.’

Sounds like America to me. It is a strong possibility.

I wonder if somehow Madoff is involved in all of this—and what does Blago know?!?

I expected Blago to have an [air quotes]”accident” waaaaaay back but he’s still making the rounds—things that make you go “hmmmmmm”....

And all signs point to Soros. I said months ago he orchestrated this meltdown for the sole purpose of getting Obama elected.

I've been saying the same. Soros is the man behind the throne of the Obamessiah.

So, if the Bush Administration knew immediately that this was an engineered, all-out assault on the U.S. economic system, why then did they not say so at the time?

I bet you’ll find William Ayers deeply involved with Soros as well. Obama is just a puppet.

Its called the Cloward-Piven Strategy of Orchestrated Crisis. Look it up, this is the MAIN tactic that has been used against us, and we can counter attack using the same thing.

And the only place you heard about Schumer was on conservative talk radio. Neither he, Barney Frank or any of the other Democrats that engineered this crisis have been investigated or brought up on charges.

IndyMac should find a way to SUE Schumer for tortious interference with their business enterprise due to his slanderous statements. Frank should be investigated for his illegitimate propping up of two near-bankrupt entities.

I thought I was crazy last year to think that this whole economic “collapse” was too coincidental and that Zero’s stealth minions were behind it somehow. What they wanted to do was make the economy look bad enough to get Zero elected (mind you, this was only three months after the market hit 13,000 and joblessness was 4.75 percent).
