Here's one of the *Invisable Hands* you speak of. (Now Sec Of the Treasury)

Geithner was a senior fellow in the Economics Department of the Council on Foreign Relations and director of the Policy Development and Review Department at the International Monetary Fund. After obtaining an M.A. in International Economics and East Asian Studies from Johns Hopkins University’s School of Advanced International Studies in 1985, Geithner went to work for Kissinger and Associates. In 1988, he joined the International Affairs division of the U.S. Treasury Department and was named president of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York in 2003. He is also a member of the Rockefeller “financial advisory body,” the Group of Thirty, an organization comprised of members from the Bank of England, the European Central Bank, the Federal Reserve, Citicorp and Citibank, the China Construction Bank, Morgan Stanley, JP Morgan Chase, in short the very heart of the international banking elite.

In June, Gary Weiss wrote that Geithner was a “central figure” in the “drama” that was J.P. Morgan Chase acquisition of Bear Stearns. “It was Geithner’s Federal Reserve bank, not the Treasury, that came up with the $29 billion loan that made the deal possible or, more precisely, acceptable to J.P. Morgan.” In other words, Geithner was taking orders directly from the international bankers. He is also cozy with AIG, Lehman, and Goldman Sachs.

This, my FRiends, is no tin-foil hat theory.

I can’t decide if the Senate confirmation of Geithner is more like the refusal of the Roman Senate to demand enforcement of the Agrarian Laws or its refusal to try the assassins of the Gracchi.

Either way, Spengler was right—this is the dawning of the Age of Caesars

Ahhh, the “Powers that Be”. IMO, ANY president is but a puppet on their strings and it always seems, just beneath the surface, always the name Rockefeller.

You left out the part of Geithner’s involvement with International Monetary Fund or the UN’s department of economic planning.
