That’s the ticket!
Best use of that phrase ever...
Oh man that is a GRATE quote!
"...When the earthquake hit toxic securities, the insurer, AIG, couldn't pay up.And, for the "social media"-deprived, from www.urbandictionary.com:Normally, that would result in the insurer going bankrupt, an orderly proceeding in bankruptcy court to distribute AIG's assets, and Goldman recovering only a portion of the insurance payout on the crappy products.
But instead of AIG going bankrupt and Goldman taking a hit, the U.S. taxpayer made good on AIG's securities insurance. In a deal arranged by former Goldman CEO and current Obama BFF, Hank Paulson, Goldman ended up being paid -- by you -- an astonishing 100 cents on the dollar.
So Goldman CEO Lloyd Blankfein's boast that his firm didn't want TARP money and has paid it all back is completely irrelevant. Goldman took billions of dollars -- that's millions with a 'b' -- of the AIG bailout money.
How about paying that back?" - Ann Coulter
BFF stands for "Best Friends Forever."An abbreviation mostly written on binders or notes by girls in grade school, however, over the last few years, people who use to use the term in grade school have actually started saying it, typically in a joking manner, to mean a close relationship with someone.
OMG Wendy is so cool, we are totally BFFs now.
Har, great post!
There are a lot of people who should be in jail - not drinking fancy French wine and eating Wagyu.
Wall Street and Washington are both Rat's nests - in more ways than one...
>> If memory serves me correctly, John McCain was among the top 4 recepient of funds from wall street including Goldman Sachs
Integrating the derivatives.
: > )
Oh, and here's a “u”
Ann nails it!
"...When the government steps in to save the very financial institutions that poisoned the nation's financial system with contaminated securities and derivatives -- all while the bankers get to keep the fees and bonuses on their bad bets -- we are not talking about a free market.We're talking about regular Americans being forced to foot the bill for the gambling habits of left-wing multimillionaires by buying the malefactors more chips every time they lose." - Ann Coulter
What Coulter has done is say something that people who dislike 0bama *want* to hear...but that's a far cry from being analytical.
Actually, NONE of those people got 0bama ahead in life, despite what they may have taught him, they aren’t the ones who pulled his puppet strings to get him where he is.
Rezko helped 0bama get ahead...now Tony’s in jail, thrown under the bus.
Blagojavich. Jail pending.
Bill Ayers ghost wrote 0bama’s first book...now Ayers is a non-person in the 0bama Administration, thrown under the bus.
You watch, 0bama will toss Rahm Emanuel under the bus, too.
That being said, my original thought to you:
Yea, she won't ever get anywhere with that writing thingie
THAT being said, your “fantasy” of what she misses is just that...a fantasy.
Read These and get back to me.
Damun Ann, can't beat it! Too funny. I hope he read that.
As for Ahmadinnajad re: Feb 11th, if nefarious then he'll have talk fast as Israeli warships are on the prowl...whoops there goes the lone refinery!
Coulter misses all of 0bama’s friends, including his preacher and grandmother, who 0bama has thrown under the bus when she fantasizes that 0bama won't punish Goldman Sachs or JP Morgan or even the University of Cal.Maybe.
But Jeremiah Wright and the Kenyan's "racist white grandmother" weren't paying his campaign bills.
Not sure if he'll throw his "meal tickets" under the bus any time soon.
