I can't imagine any attorney in his right mind making a false accusation against this administration, so either he is crazy or telling the truth.

my money says he is telling the truth and I sure hope he doesn't end up in some plane I might be a passenger in.

"...This puts the credibility of the president on the line in a dramatic way. If any part of Lauria's story holds up, Obama's reputation for honesty will be tarnished...."

"Reputation for HONESTY"?

Considering the stories that came out of TARP and the pressure the government placed upon well-capitalized banks, the story Lauria is telling re: his hedge fund clients seems more believable, especially since Rattner is involved.

Really, this brings up the Clinton administration and the banking hearings. These direct denials by the White House and their personelle, illegal pressure tactics and diversionary tactics to divert the press are all Rahm Immanuel and "Clinton" part II.

I wonder when they will bomb Albania to "wag the dog"?

Is the White House lying...?

Umm. Is the sun shining? Is Congress asking for MORE TAXES?

OF COURSE, the White House is lying. No doubt about it.

Are they lying?

Everything allegedly said by Steve “Ismella” Rattner is completely consistent with what Zero said in his press conference - demeaning and attacking people who have valid business reasons for opposing a “solution” for Chrysler that devalues and undermines investments and private property rights everywhere.

Now that organizations are guilty until proved innocent in Obama’s Amerika then clearly the White House is lying and guilty in full of criminal activities.

Gee, in all this story, I've never heard anyone doubt that the WH press corps would indeed destroy someone's reputation at the slightest nod from or hat placement by this administration.

Do you suppose its the bailout money for their employers these dogs seek, or for themselves, a chance at working inside the administration at the next opportunity?

This is the guy who, it was reported, told the Bankers that the only thing between them and the pitchforks was him.
That sounded a little threatening to me. They also said Obama didn’t bow to the King, despite what we saw.

Of course they lied. The lawyer actually has a very good reputation, but even if people had doubts the story in Drudge about Emanuel threatening Israel thta they will only stop Iran from attacking them if Israel plays ball with the Palestinian’s is proof positive the WH rules by intimidation.

Would the Obama administration tell a lie? Yes, yes, and hell yes. Facts prove it to be true. This story could grow legs larger than a granddaddy spider and when it does, it’ll be all over the web.
