just to add fuel to the fire,
during Geithner’s press conference, the person repeating the questions did a freudian slip of starting to say “death of the united states”. He actually caught himself and promptly corrected death to debt. The question apparently was debt of the united states adversly affecting the US dollar. After the question, Geithner was mega squirming. It happened about 9:10 am EST.
The obamacrats probably will still use his suicide as a scapegoat.
And thus the Obama Administration “Apparant Suicides” begin.
Maybe he was unable to pay his mortgage any longer?
May God have mercy on his soul, and console his loved ones.
The stink of this *development* will set you back on your heels, my friend.
Prayer’s for his family. Wondering if some scandal was about to blow that he did not want to be part of.
FRE has lost their CEO and CFO both since March 13.
Does any body know where HILLARY was?
This being the initial report means that there will be some follow up information, but don’t count on learning anytime soon what actually happened here.
We can, and do all talk about the Politics of Socialist/Democrats, Left, Right, Moderate, Conservative, Republican, etc., but we don’t seem to address enough the obvious criminal element that has become so involved, and profoundly evident in not only our own Government, but others about the World as well.
Our current Administration is rife with criminals. The Bureaucracies that support our three branches of Government are packed with supporters of the current Administrations base ideology, and will perform upon demand wittingly, or unwittingly.
Whatever caused this man to take his own life had to have been something of great value for him to devalue the life that God provided him.
Strange wording...Are they not allowed to say no apparent visible injuries, gunshot wound, or large amounts of blood loss?
Well, after an 8-year lull, were getting back to watching the Democrats address their issues. Arkancides are not unfamiliar topics to long-time Freepers.
Ted Nugent is famous for saying Drugs and Alcohol lead to prison or death.
I would like to add liberal policies to that list.

“Here It Comes” (Prime Delinquencies)

I and others have for nearly two years said that “subprime” was going to be a side show compared to both ALT-A and “Prime” delinquencies on mortgages.
All I can say now is: it’s starting.
April 21 (Bloomberg) — Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac mortgage delinquencies among the most creditworthy homeowners rose 50 percent in a month as borrowers said drops in income or too much debt caused them to fall behind, according to data from federal regulators.
The number of so-called prime borrowers at least 60 days behind on mortgages owned or guaranteed by the companies rose to 743,686 in January, from 497,131 in December, and is almost double the total for October, the Federal Housing Finance Agency said in a report to Congress today.
Of all borrowers who ended up in default, 34 percent told Fannie and Freddie they were earning less money, about 20 percent cited excessive debt as a reason for missing mortgage payments, and 8.1 percent blamed unemployment, FHFA said.
Uh huh.
It isn’t over either.
Perhaps in response to this, Freddie Mac’s acting head apparently has committed suicide:

I hope he made a DVD of himself telling all--and sent it to George Bush!
My prayers are peace to his family and may his death not be in vain, like all the other too convenient ones.
Fwank-icide !!
Performance anxiety!
So, 100 days more or less into The Usurper’s WH occuation and we have the first known death of an administration flunkie. Kellerman’s Freddie Mac association apparently goes back over 16 years. Meaning he was there when lending rules were changed to mandate 50% of mortgages must be granted to subprime people—on pain of government legal action.
The real question is what this suicide means. What happened,or is about to happen, that would cause this man to take his own life—assuming he, in fact, killed himself?
As an aside, I wonder what Wall Street will make of this? I bet the DOW will be up at least 100 pts regardless of this news.
Mark Davis opened his show with this news this morning.
