OK FReepers, how many of these besides Laura Tyson are Clinton rejects, er, I mean, Clinton RETREADS. ????
And we wonder why they are coming up with socialist ideas!
This is the perfect scenarion to get evrything the Libs have waited for all these years - except popularity for Porkulus is fading fast
It looks like Zero is going to create his own private military & his own government.
Penny Pritzker caught my eye. I think she was part of the campaign, and before that a bigwig at Fannie or Freddie.
....do we really need to pay a bunch of “experts” to tell us to raise taxes when liberal groups are willing to do it for free?
Wasn’t she the one who hosted the Iranian nutjob here in the U.S.?
Hasn’t Immelt presided over GE stock in the dumper?
Don’t forget Buffett bailed GE out a couple of months ago AND GE makes the wind turbines Obama and Pelosi wants to unleash around the country — oh, and Pelosi bought into the Texas Billionaires Wind scheme last summer — both financially and emotionally.
She was involved with Superior Bank when it folded... she is a very wealthy woman — 135th in America... and very close friend of Bambi.
Can’t we just take Obama back for store credit?
You’re right! She had a sit down with the Iranian leader. It happened right after the Messiah got his first high level security briefing. It gave me the willies.
Well who did you expect him to have: Ron Paul, Peter Schiff, Larry Kudlowe,Mr._ Laffer, G. Edward Griffin, and Byron York?
lol....
