I think Soros has sufficiently advanced to the level of a Bond super villain...

I got rope. Seriously, though, we probably ought to think long and hard about how vulnerable our economy is to manipulation by billionaires, money managers, governments—singly or in collusion. And here Obama is talking about putting a whole lot more power into the hands of the Chinese or Russians or whoever else is going to buy those government bonds to finance the stimulus and bailout.

Or it could be a consortium of countries like China, Russia, the Arabs, etc. We do know that hundreds of millions of dollars in campaign contributions came from overseas.

Rep. Kanjorski: $550 Billion Disappeared in "Electronic Run On the Banks"
"On Thursday Sept 15, 2008 at roughly 11 AM The Federal Reserve
noticed a tremendous draw down of money market accounts in the USA
to the tune of $550 Billion dollars in a matter of an hour or two.
Money was being removed electronically.
The treasury tried to help with $150 Billion.
But could not stem the tide.
It was an electronic run on the banks
The treasury intervened but had they not closed down the accounts
they estimated that by 2 PM that afternoon.
Within 3 hours. $5.5 Trillion would have been withdrawled
and collapsed and within 24 hours the world economy."


FLASHBACK: from 9/15/08:

“U.S. President George W. Bush said Monday he is confident
that the markets are resilient and can deal with the latest financial blows.
“We are working to reduce disruptions and minimize the impact
these financial market developments on the broader economy.” ...

U.S. Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama
said eight years of Bush “brought us the most serious financial crisis
since the Great Depression.”

His Republican rival said John McCain said he was happy the
federal government decided not to use taxpayer dollars to bail out Lehman Brothers.”

How did Obama know THEN
that we would experience the ‘most serious financial crisis since the Great Depression’
when those who did not plan the takeover would not know for three more months?


October 10, 2008, another massive selloff.


Professor Joseph Olson of Hamline University School of Law, St. Paul , Minnesota,
points out some interesting facts concerning the Presidential Election2008

* Number of States won by: Democrats: 19 Republicans: 29
* Square miles of land won by: Democrats: 580,000 Republicans: 2,427,000
* Population of counties won by: Democrats: 127 million Republicans: 143 million
* Murder rate per 100,000 residents in counties won by: Democrats: 13.2 Republicans: 2.1

I read way back that Henry Paulson, “Hank” who was originally from Goldman Sachs and is a democrat, was talking to the republicans on the financial crisis at the same time passing on all of these privy conversations to his bundlers at Goldman Sachs who were then passing this info. directly to the Obama Campaigners. It was a classic illustration of a financial covert take-over by the democrats by theatrically creating a crisis and this was the October surprise and we are just finally verbalizing and realizing this.

We should demand an official investigation on how this happened and who is responsible for this event.
Unfortunately with the Dems at the helm we will not see this anytime soon.
How about some of the private citizen’s who lost Billions of Dollars hire private investigators to dig up the dirt on this? Are any of you rich Freepers?

With the kind of records that kept these days wouldn't it be possible to find exactly who took the money out and when.

How does this correlate with the statement by Schumer, I think it was, that BOA was about to go under. That started a huge run too.

Too damn many things happening here at just the right time to be explained away by pure coincidence. At least it looks that way to me.

I hate to sound like the wearer of a tin foil hat, but I don't trust the bastards. They are just too power-hungry for us not to suspect them when a series of events falls together in perfect order.

I wish I had the financial knowledge to look into these kinds of things. If I weren't so darn broke I would spend a couple of nights at a Holiday Inn Express and then take another look at it.

This was never about a black President. They could have put a real live turkey in there and it would have made no difference.

It’s all about a take over of a select world few like Soros and possibly other countries.

I have said repeatedly that Treasury Secretary Paulson was the point man on this carefully planned October Surprise. I have also pointed out that this was probably the worst appointment that Bush ever made, not excluding keeping George Tenet on at the CIA or putting his pal Alberto Gonzalez in as Attorney General.

The economic crisis had been building for some time, and anyone who was paying attention already knew about it. But they suddenly broke it, big time, using the same technique that Obama is using now: “You must vote for it IMMEDIATELY, or the world will come to an end.”

Paulson consulted with Obama, Pelosi, and Reid, who came to the emergency White House meeting fully prepared. Pelosi and Reid grabbed the gavel from Bush and handed it to Obama to direct the meeting. Bush was played for a sucker, because he was suffering from the illusion that Paulson was HIS guy.

McCain tried to get into the deal, but was given the cold shoulder. Paulson refused to return his calls, although he was in full communication with Obama.

So, if Soros engineered a sudden bank run, that was just icing on the cake. For that matter, it could have been Goldman Sachs that did it, or any of a number of other players.

The question that should be asked(and it’s time honored one) “Why pass it right away?” “If it’s a good deal today; it will be a good deal tomorrow?”

There is no reason to pass it right now and the more we learn it shouldn’t be passed at all.

Turns out the Schumer ‘leak’ was on July 14, 2008. That was the first salvo in the rapidly deteriorating of the financial situation. That deterioration culminated with the big Washington powwow to save the economy, just before the election.

The bigger and more complicated a system is, the less likely a random series of events will trip it up.

I know we have no where nearly enough info to draw any conclusions, but I sure do plan to keep an eye on it.

The sad thing is that it was the job of the MSM to look into things like this. But since the MSM has abandoned objective journalism for blatant political campaigning there's really no one left to do the grunt work anymore. It takes a tremendous amount of time, and talent, to chase down these things and no editor is going assign resources to go after a story that might shed a bad light on Obama or his minions.
