This is un-frickin-believable. The financial crisis was deliberate, planned, staged. Who made the run? "Someone threw us in the middle of the Atlantic ocean without a life raft. We are trying to determine which is the closest shore and whether there is any chance in the world to swim that far. We don't know."

[Secret Agent Man]

Soros.

[Wayne07]

9/15 was the day of the Lehman Brothers bankruptcy, so not sure there is enough information to call it a conspiricy.

[FarRightFanatic]

Whoever it was that wanted Hussein elected. I would guess Soros, with help from Middle Eastern sheikhs, the Chinese, the Russians.

Scares the s**t out of me that they could tank our economy in ONE DAY and throw an election to their choosing.

Rep. Kanjorski: $550 Billion Disappeared in “Electronic Run On the Banks”

At 2 minutes, 20 seconds into this C-Span video clip, Rep. Paul Kanjorski of Pennsylvania explains how the Federal Reserve told Congress members about a “tremendous draw-down of money market accounts in the United States, to the tune of $550 billion dollars.” According to Kanjorski, this electronic transfer occured over the period of an hour or two.

Here is a transcript of what Kanjorski says in the video:

“On Thursday Sept 15, 2008 at roughly 11 AM The Federal Reserve noticed a tremendous draw down of money market accounts in the USA to the tune of $550 Billion dollars in a matter of an hour or two.

Money was being removed electronically.

The treasury tried to help with $150 Billion.

But could not stem the tide.

It was an electronic run on the banks

The treasury intervened but had they not closed down the accounts they estimated that by 2 PM that afternoon. Within 3 hours. $5.5 Trillion would have been withdrawled and collapsed and within 24 hours the world economy.”

Kanjorski does not provide further details.

I am hoping we will find out if anyone is responsible, and soon. If this theory proves to be true, it is terrorism, pure and simple....

[Slip18]

Of course, it was Bush’s fault.

[Hillarys Gate Cult]

We've determined that even if the law wants to go after the culprits, they won't be allowed to.

My questions. So now is it possible for those scumbags to turn it back around at an opportune time for Obama to “save” the economy? Was that in the master plan or is this money just gone? Is Obama expecting that to happen? If he is he's probably going to be waiting a very long time if at all.

[jonrick46]

Rush Limbaugh has the video up on his website. Somebody knew the vulnerability of the banks and knew just how to pull the trip wire.

[D-fendr]

We need a grassroots demand for congressional investigation.

i know its not exactly the same thing, it being the IMF but it does imply a lot of software security vulnerabilities in the system.

More likely the European banks decided in Sept/Oct it was time to buy dollars, not sell. They had a lot of debt unwinding rapidly and coming due. The timing of that, of course, was fatal to our election. But inventing this “run” is just kind of silly when mostly the opposite happened.

Factor crude oil into the equation.

FLASHBACK: from 9/15/08:

“U.S. President George W. Bush said Monday he is confident
that the markets are resilient and can deal with the latest financial blows.
“We are working to reduce disruptions and minimize the impact
these financial market developments on the broader economy.” ...

U.S. Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama
said eight years of Bush “brought us the most serious financial crisis
since the Great Depression.”

His Republican rival said John McCain said he was happy the
federal government decided not to use taxpayer dollars to bail out Lehman Brothers.”

How did Obama know THEN
that we would experience the ‘most serious financial crisis since the Great Depression’
when those who did not plan the takeover would not know for three more months?

I KNEW IT!!! >:-[

All that “hurryhurryhurry!!!or everything will collapse!!!” crap happened Waaaaaaaaaaaaay too conveniently and was designed to make John McCain look inept about economic concerns—I’m tossing out ALL of my tin foil!!

George Soros is THE main domestic enemy of the United States of America—how far will this go? Will there ever be an investigation?? Will there be a run on pitchforks and torches at Lowe’s’ and Home Depots throughout the country?!?!?!?!?!

On Thursday Sept 15, 2008 at roughly 11 AM The Federal Reserve noticed a tremendous draw down of money market accounts in the USA to the tune of $550 Billion dollars in a matter of an hour or two. Money was being removed electronically.

Serious questions: Logistically, how could any person/entity/organization remove that many dollars in such a short period of time? Who would own that many dollars and have access/capability to withdraw it so quickly? From what institutions was this huge amount of money withdrawn from? Where was the money transferred to?

I'm just trying to understand a valid scenario that this could happen under, before I assume what is being reported is valid.
