Liquidate the opposition. Why not? It's a tried and true method of consolidating power.

Indeed. FDR did in 1944. The Sedition Trials.

He jumped past the “S&P is racist” meme to an outright “arrest”. Bottom line, these people are not ‘liberals’ or just plain ‘socialist’, that’s too kind and endearing now, they are out-and-out MARXISTS and FACISTS!

...“Pres Obama, show some guts & arrest the CEO of Standard & Poors. These criminals brought down the economy in 2008...

If he does he needs to arrest the CEOs of Moody's and Fitch as they also helped facilitate the MBS crisis by giving high ratings to crap securities.

S+P is the newest ENEMY OF THE OBAMUNIST STATE, and must be destroyed for daring to question the Messiah, and the liberal fascists.

How many times have we already seen this in the last 3+ years, folks?

I’m going to guess that Mr Hope-n-Change is wishing he had concentration camps available for placing those who displease him.

He/They already do.

FEMA Camps

It gets complicated but maybe it’s quite understandable that someone like Obama might think the Big Three credit rating agencies should dance to his tune.

Due to various regulations accumulated over the years from the SEC and the Fed, S&P, Fitch’s and Moody’s together constitute a state-maintained oligopoly filling a quasi-regulatory role. They’re in a similar position as Fannie & Freddie as pseudo government sponsored enterprises. Their impartiality is highly questionable. Like the great accounting firms in the Enron era, they get paid by the same entities they rate, with all that that implies, and they have screwed the pooch numerous times recently.

So it’s no wonder that someone like Fat Bastard thinks the gummint owns them and should be able to dictate to them.

But I’m probably giving Mike too much credit in thinking he knows even that much. He more likely simply assumes that the Great O can arbitrarily imprison anyone who displeases him. Too much time spent with Hugo and Fidel, I guess.

Michael Moore is a Democrat party hack. If Bush suggested arresting the S&P CEO the lard-ass would say we should arrest Bush for making the suggestion.

This was the whole thing? Whe excerpt even further????

********

Deceptive documentarian Michael Moore has an innovative suggestion for how President Obama should deal with the nation’s first-ever credit downgrade by Standard & Poor’s: Arrest S&P’s CEO.

“Pres Obama, show some guts & arrest the CEO of Standard & Poors. These criminals brought down the economy in 2008& now they will do it again,” Moore profoundly tweeted Monday.

It is unclear whether Moore’s alleged drinking buddy, Venezuelan aspiring dictator Hugo Chavez, whispered the policy suggestion in Moore’s ear.

Moore doesn’t think, he follows. He is as useless as all the others that believe anything a liberal has to say. All corruption in DC needs to be stopped and new blood needs to replace the incumbents that are firmly embedded in the corruption that has been DC for so long.

The Department of Health and Human Services should have Michael Moore arrested for his own good.

They could put him on a Jenny Craig diet to improve his health and save his life.

Is this before or after he arrests the Tea Party terrorists?

I think he’s pretty tied up at the moment molesting all the grandmas, grandpas, and kiddos passing through the airports. A communist’s work is never done.
