I just found this article; found it interesting.

Didn't see it posted anywhere. Hope it's in the right place. Hope it's ok to post.

It’s always about the banks. So it goes.

I wonder if any of those union members ever dreamed that “Hope and Change” really meant “Drop Dead Suckers!”

Illegal as all get out.

"Why Obama was so insistent on tax-cheat Geithner
...Geithner ... most of his childhood living outside the United States, including present-day Zimbabwe, Zambia, India and Thailand
where he completed high school at International School Bangkok. He attended Camp Becket-in-the-Berkshires-for-boys,
a summer camp located in western Massachusetts. He then attended Dartmouth College,
graduating with a B.A. in government and Asian studies in 1983.
He earned an M.A. in international economics and East Asian studies
from Johns Hopkins University's School of Advanced International Studies in 1985. He has studied Chinese and Japanese.

...grandfather, Paul Herman Geithner (1902–1972), emigrated with his parents from Zeulenroda,
Germany to Philadelphia, Pennsylvania in 1908. His father, Peter F. Geithner,
is the director of the Asia program at the Ford Foundation in New York. During the early 1980s,
Peter Geithner oversaw the Ford Foundation's microfinance programs in Indonesia being developed
by S. ANN DUNHAM-SOETORO, President Barack Obama's MOTHER, and they met in person at least once.
Timothy Geithner's mother, Deborah Moore Geithner, is a pianist and piano teacher ...
Geithner's maternal grandfather, Charles F. Moore, was an adviser to President Dwight D. Eisenhower
and served as Vice President of Public Relations from 1952-1964 for FORD MOTOR COMPANY."

"After completing his studies, Geithner worked for KISSINGER and Associates in Washington, D.C.,
for three years and then joined the International Affairs division of the U.S. Treasury Department in 1988.
He went on to serve as an attaché at the US Embassy in Tokyo.
He was deputy assistant secretary for international monetary and financial policy (1995–1996),
senior deputy assistant secretary for international affairs (1996-1997), assistant secretary for international affairs (1997–1998)."


He was Under Secretary of the Treasury for International Affairs (1998–2001) under Treasury Secretaries Robert Rubin
and Lawrence Summers. Summers was his mentor, but other sources call him a Rubin protégé..."

Isn't this article by the same psychotic that accused Bush of stealing two elections?

Greg Palast is a left winger from way back and it is hysterical to see him go off, with good reason, on Obama's boy Rattner.

This is how the Obama administration works. It is Cook county corruption writ large. The machine get fat, everyone else gets the scraps.

He might be right, but I have no interest in the man. Read the endorsers here.

Stevie the Rat has a different plan for GM: grab the pension funds to pay off Morgan and Citi.

Anybody who believes this is totally retarded.
The pension funds are in trust and not GM property and cannot be touched by a 3rd party.
Who the f@#k comes up with this crap?

Very good article. There are so many train wrecks it’s hard to watch and keep my head from flying off. If this guy’s a lefty then he’s had a cold shower. Unless something happens there will be a lot of dems sleeping under the bridge with us and heating our beans in a bent tin can.

Insightful article. I wonder if there is anyone who offer redress to the criminally affected?
