AND NOW . . . amidst billowing clouds of fragrant, aromatic first- and second-hand premium cigar smoke. . . it is time for . . . that harmless, lovable little fuzz ball, the highly-trained broadcast specialist, having more fun than a human being should be allowed to have, from behind the golden EIB microphone, firmly ensconced in the prestigious Attila-the-Hun chair at the Limbaugh Institute of Advanced Conservative Studies, with talent on loan from G-d, at the cutting-edge of societal evolution, with half his brain tied behind his back just to make it fair, the all-knowing, all-caring, all-sensing, all-feeling, Maha-Rushie! America's Anchorman, Truth Detector, Doctor of Democracy, and Chief of the Patriotism Police. He is the man who runs America. He knows the Democrats like every square inch of his glorious naked body. He is ready to do what he was born to do--That's host. Get ready to what you were born to do--That's listen (and post your comments on the Rush Limbaugh LIVE Radio Thread).
We love to hear Rush Limbaugh,
Excellence in Broadcasting.
From sea to shining sea,
Millions and millions listen.
Conservative voice of freedom,
Heard throughout all America.
A message pure and truthful,
The downhearted are encouraged.
Integrity and honesty his motto.
We love you, Rush.

G-d Bless you, Rush Limbaugh.

I video-taped that segment, but would have to re-wind my tape to get her name. She was supposedly some sort of "expert" on the proper "look" and demeanor for public officials, et.al. I thought to myself that with a hair style like hers and her mannerisms, she had a lot of nerve to make critical remarks about Sarah's hair style, etc. LOL
Where does BOR dredge up these "experts"????

Not Quite Ready for Subprime Time
by Baron Bodissey
As most of you know by now, President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad of Iran has been invited to speak at the UN in New York City later this month. Maybe well get to see the
famous halo this time! Keep your eye on the C-SPAN coverage during his oratory and see if you can make it out.
A certain select group of well-meaning progressives decided to take the opportunity of Mr. Ahmadinejads visit to host a gala event for him at the Grand Hyatt Hotel in NYC. The invitation list was supposed to be confidential and kept tightly-guarded, but
word leaked out, alas, and copies of the invite have spread across the internet:
An invitation to an international dialogue between religious leaders and political figures:
Has not one God created us?
The significance of religious contributions to peace
It is an honor to invite you to participate with religious, cultural, and political leaders in a conversation about the role of religions in tackling global challenges and building peaceful societies at an Iftar a dinner to break the Ramadan fast.
In the presence of
- His Excellency Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, the President of the Islamic Republic of Iran
With contributions from
- His Excellency Miguel DEscoto Brockmann, President of the General Assembly of the United Nations
- His Excellency the Rev. Kjell Bondevik, former Prime Minister of Norway and President of the Oslo Center for Peace and Human Rights
- and distinguished religious leaders
This conversation is the fourth in a series of high-level bridge-building and reconciliation efforts that have helped to build mutual understanding between our peoples, nations and religious traditions. It is our hope that as religious and political leaders, this communal meal and exchange of views will enable us to explore faith perspectives for dealing with global issues such as poverty, war and prejudice while deepening mutual understanding.
The dinner will be at the Grand Hyatt Hotel, 109 East 42nd Street, New York, N.Y., on Thursday, September 25, 2008, beginning with evening prayers from several religious traditions. Please arrive by 6:00 pm to clear security. Following dinner and presentations, the moderator will open the floor for comments and discussion.
Please note, entrance to this event is by limited invitation only. Some members of the media have been invited to cover the event.
RSVP by e-mail to sept25@us.mcc.org no later than Monday, September 15, 2008, confirming you interest in participation and sending us your mailing address. After confirmation of your participation, we will send a card explaining procedures for entry to the event.
The Sponsoring Committee welcomes your participation and appreciates the cooperation of the Permanent Mission of the Islamic Republic of Iran to the United Nations in co-hosting this event.
American Friends Service Committee
Mennonite Central Committee
Quaker United Nations Office
Religions for Peace
World Council of Churches United Nations Liaison Office
Please direct further inquiries to sept25@us.mcc.org.
Yes, I agree; this is appalling. But it gets smellier and smellier the more you look into it. Heres the bare outline of the facts:
The
Grand Hyatt in NYC is owned by the
Hyatt Corporation, which is owned by
H Group Holding.
The Hyatt Corporation is a private company owned by the Pritzker family.
Penny Pritzker is one of four major heirs.
Penny Pritzker is Barack Obamas chair for his campaign finance committee, sometimes also referred to as treasurer for Obamas campaign finance committee.
So Obamas campaign finance committees chairwoman is hosting Ahmadinejad on Thursday at the Hyatt.
The Pritzker family, Penny in particular, were pioneers in creating a new financial product in the late 1990s and early 2000.
It was called the
subprime mortgage.
- - - - - - - - -
When their bank failed, they ended up owing the government half a billion dollars in unreimbursed FDIC insurance payments.
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
Im a rank amateur when it comes to banking, and I know nothing about the details of campaign finance, especially in the Democratic Party.
But Im fortunate to have a contact in Chicago named Lionel who knows a lot about both topics, and heres what he sent me earlier today in an email, in addition to the facts listed above:
Stop Iran Now has organized a rally to protest the presence of Mr. Ahmadinejad at the UN. It will be held at Dag Hammarskjold Plaza on September 22 in front of the UN building.
The Obama Campaign Finance chairwoman Penny Pritzkers flagship Grand Hyatt Hotel in NYC will roll out the red carpet for wannabe mass murderer Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, the President of the terrorist state of Iran, for a lavish dinner on September 25.
Mind you, this meal of appeasement will be just three days after the September 22 rally to protest tyrant Ahmadinejads UN speech. Obamas surrogate Hillary Clinton fled from a bipartisan opportunity to join the Republican Vice Presidential candidate Sarah Palin at the rally, which is sponsored by several national Jewish organizations. Clintons staff complained that the attendance by bipartisan speakers would make the rally a partisan event. Go figure.
And now Sarah Palin has been disinvited by the panicked organizers of the rally, under pressure from the Democrats.
So
lets look at the whole picture:
Penny Pritzker, Obamas chief fundraiser the owner of the hotel hosting Ahmadinejad and heir to the Hyatt billions is a pioneer in the subprime mortgage industry and a key force in that industrys subsequent melt-down. The Hyatt businesses run by Penny Pritzker have included Superior Bank, which went bankrupt in 2002 still owing U.S. taxpayers most of the half billion dollar FDIC payout to depositors.
One of Obamas first executive decisions in 2007 as a presidential candidate was to appoint Penny Pritzker as Chair and Treasurer of his campaign finance committee. Allegations of Obamas campaign receiving foreign and especially Middle Eastern campaign contributions which would be against U.S. law have dogged the Obama campaign ever since.
Theres no word whether Obama will attend the September 25th Hyatt banquet to meet with Ahmadinejad. The Obama-Biden platform on Iran calls for diplomacy without preconditions, U.S. economic investments in Iran, and Irans entry into the World Trade Organization. According to the platform, Seeking this kind of comprehensive settlement with Iran is our best way to make progress.
In early September 2008, two weeks before Pritzkers fabulous feast for Ahmadinejad, the Iranian Parliament passed a bill making apostasy leaving the religion of Islam, or even writing about leaving the religion a crime punished by the death penalty. This past month, Iranian human rights activists, and especially womens rights activists, have been imprisoned in a new crackdown in preparation for Ahmadinejads U.S. trip.
And Obamas platform on Iran makes no mention of human rights. Are you surprised?
Consortium News has more information about Ms. Pritzker and the banking industry. Heres an excerpt:
Though Superior Bank collapsed years before the current sub-prime turmoil that is rocking the worlds financial markets and pushing those millions of homeowners toward foreclosure some banking experts say the Pritzkers and Superior hold a special place in the history of the sub-prime fiasco.
The [sub-prime] financial engineering that created the Wall Street meltdown was developed by the Pritzkers and Ernst and Young, working with Merrill Lynch to sell bonds securitized by sub-prime mortgages, Timothy J. Anderson, a whistleblower on financial and bank fraud, told me in an interview.
The sub-prime mortgages, Anderson said, were provided to Merrill Lynch, by a nation-wide Pritzker origination system, using Superior as the cash cow, with many millions in FDIC insured deposits. Superiors owners were to sub-prime lending, what Michael Milken was to junk bonds.
In other words, if you traced todays sub-prime crisis back to its origins, you would come upon the role of the Pritzkers and Superior Bank of Chicago.
Theres a little background on Pritzkers family influence on raising money for Obama in The Washington Post, and more on Pritzker in this Bloomberg article its a puff piece, but theres a lot of detail in it. Note that this indicates that most of the half a billion has been repaid to depositors, but that may be inaccurate.
To make the connections even more interesting, theres a link between Penny Pritzker of Hyatt along with the subprime meltdown and ACORN (see community organizer: voter fraud).
So heres a woman who helped create the subprime mortgage fiasco and drove her bank into a half-billion dollar failure, was associated with an organization that is notorious for voter fraud, and is sinking the flagship of the Hyatt Hotel chain by inviting an aspiring mass-murderer of Jews to be a guest of honor there.
The subprime crisis. ACORN. And Mad Jad.
What a confection!
And this is the woman Barack Obama chose to handle his campaign finances.
Proof, I guess, of how his running of the campaign proves his executive judgment and experience.
.
To: sloop
Yes it is. CRA started it all.
Google the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act.(1999) That was the one that repealed the Glass-Steagal Act and allowed banks to merge with Ins. groups. (Citicorp and Travelers Group)
Heavily lobbied by Treas. Secy. Rubin and Sanford Weill of Citicorp so that the merger would not meet congressional dis-approval. Rubin quit soon after passage and went to Citicorp.

Obama’s best fundraisers were given priority to go to Oprah Winfrey’s home
Source The Chicago Sun Times March 24 2008 by Lynn Sweet
Obamas 2004 U.S. Senate finance committee contains the names of a number of Chicago based Democrats who have been long-time major donors and fund-raisers and Tony Rezko and his wife, Rita. Rezko, on trial in a Chicago courtroom on corruption charges. On March 14, Obama said Rezko had raised about $250,000 for Obamafor his state senate, House and U.S. Senate runs.
For his 2008 presidential run, Obama does release the names of his best bundlers those who raise between $50,000 and at least $200,000. Bundlers are people who tap into their own extensive personal networks to raise money for a candidate and in return are supposed to get recognition for their efforts from the campaigns.
But the Obama campaign has carved from these ranks of elite fund-raisers a National Finance Committee, who are deemed to have potential to raise money for Obama over the long haul.
Members of Obamas NFC have been invited to special briefings with Obama and his advisors, were given priority in getting into Oprah Winfreys fund-raiser at her home near Santa Barbara, Calif. and have been encouraged to travel to primary and caucus states to volunteer knocking on doors and at phonebanks.
