CPAN-3 ^

Posted on 03/04/2009 1:52:12 PM PST by GoreNoMore

Fed refuses to identify to congress who received 2 trillion dollars. This is beside the 350 Billion and the 750 Billion in TARP funds. How low do you go?

Pardon me, are these people criminals?

Cannot get enough milage out of this one... In regard to all this spending on private companies, etc., the Supreme Court stated this:

"To lay, with one hand, the power of the government on the property of the citizen, and with the other to bestow it upon favored individuals to aid private enterprises and build up private fortunes, is none the less robbery because it is done under the form of law and is called taxation. This is not legislation. It is a decree under legislative forms." —Citizen's Savings & Loan Assn v. Topeka, 20 Wall (87 US) 655, 664 (1874)

Using the statement from the above case, we can say that Congress is full of thieves.

Yes. Unfortunately for us, they write the laws that let them do whatever they want.

“A wise and frugal government, which shall restrain men from injuring one another, which shall leave them otherwise free to regulate their own pursuits of industry and improvement, and shall not take from the mouth of labor and bread it has earned. This is the sum of good government.”
— Thomas Jefferson, First Inaugural Address; March 4, 1801

With this the congress has no other thing to do but resind the Federal Reserve charter. No more Gederal Reserve no more creating monies without congress understanding and approval. THIS MUST STOP. I really am tired of it and I’m willing for the change no matter how tough it is. Rich getting richer and then it fail with us holding the bag.

This is crap.

So what’s new with the RAT party? Washington is plague with corruption, and that is why the economy is failing. It’s catching up with all of them.

I want to see this guy arrested for not telling congress where the money was sent. The congress is the only reportable for money in this country and to tell them it’s none of your business is treason.

Make the information public or go to prison.

Madoff should be in prison.

Where is the accountability you promised Obama?

By the way this isn't democrat or republican. IT IS BOTH.

What can one expect out of a Quazi-governmental entity.

WTH does that mean anyway? Ever gone to their website and read the convoluted dribble?

People need to wake up and realize who the real enemy is and who controls our money.

And meantime:
Gordon Brown has called on America to shoulder its historic responsibilities by using its vast wealth to help stem the ‘hurricane’ of recession battering the world.

We’re in deep doo-doo if the only one in congress asking the right questions is a Socialist.
