I frequented the Google Finance boards in the period before the Lehman take down. It was very organized. At the end of Friday people were joking .. “oh, who’s next? WACHOVIA NEXT”. They were all short sellers. They destroyed Lehman with help from bad decisions by Ben & Hank.

Wrong, Lehman destroyed Lehman. The short sellers were only the vultures who had come to gorge themselves on the bloated corpse. The cow itself was long past saving.

It is worse then that. Cloward-Piven, Alinsky Ayers, soros.

Get a CRA lawyer to sue Citigroup to make bad loans. Get your moles in Fannie & Freddie. Spread the loans to the global financial system. Then with a mega hedge fund operator and his short cronies - pick them off one by one. Insure the a crescendo in October a month before the election. Offer jobs in the admin to people who brought down Fannie, Freddie, Citigroup etc.

Oh and Obama’s pal Buffett picked up Wachovia for a song. Buffett owns a majority stake in Wells Fargo. Buffett owned Freddie stock about 7 years ago and sold it. Wells Fargo oddly had few bad loans. Their lib pals who owned World Savings dumped the disaster on foolish Wachovia at the peaked. World was packed with bad loans.
