John Corzine Named To Head MyRA
1-30-14 | Retired Texas Vet

Posted on 01/30/2014 2:07:36 PM PST by RetiredTexasVet

John Corzine was named today by His Arrogance, President Osama as Czar of the MyRA program.

Secretary of Treasury, Jackie Lew was initially taken back by the appointment but soon jumped on the team bandwagon when confronted with emails accumulated by NSA. Secretary Lew was forced to admit that Johnnie had much more experience running investment than he.

Johnnie Corzine expressed deep appreciation for the appointment. As the position is that of a czar no confirmation was required by the Senate; however, sniveling Harry Reid introduced and passed on a voice vote a resolution heaping praise on "The One" for the bold and wise appointment.

Johnnie stated that MyRA participants should feel reassured that he and the government would be guaranteeing their investments, under the rules and regulations deemed to be appropriate at that moment in time, with the full faith and credit of the US Government.

Good choice. Corzine has experience in making billions of investor dollars disappear.

“guaranteeing...full faith and credit of the US Government”

None of that exists anymore. How many of you would give the govn. YOUR money to invest or whatever they plan to do with it?

And reappear, evidently:

“FORTUNE — Scandal junkies may have been puzzled last week when they learned that the 26,000 customers of Jon Corzine’s MF Global, the infamous commodities firm that flamed out two years ago, leaving behind an unprecedented $1.5 billion shortfall in supposedly sacrosanct customer accounts, will likely now be receiving a stunning 100 cents back on every dollar of their principal.”

Step 1, look for John Semmens.

Step 2, check keywords for 'humor' or 'satire'.

Following these two steps will save on stress and spikes in blood pressure.

Whisky Tango Foxtrot? John Corzine to oversee investments? And this ISN’T one of John Semmens’ articles?

Even though your first sentence gave it away that this was satire...

I could easily see Obama actually appointing him...

Absolutely NOTHING would surprise me concerning these clowns

I wouldn’t trust him with a dime, much less my IRA.

This might be satire but it wouldn’t surprise me to see der Fuehrer actually appoint him to something like this. It’s the democrat way.

So, If you put money in MyRA do your heirs get what was not used for retirement?
