President Obama's new Economic Recovery Advisory Board includes a subprime-mortgage pioneer who drove her Chicago-area bank into bankruptcy; a national union boss who took the Fifth Amendment on three occasions when asked by federal investigators what he knew about a money-laundering scheme involving the Teamsters union and the Democratic Party while Sen. Christopher J. Dodd was its general chairman; the president and CEO of a Swiss bank under investigation for helping rich Americans dodge income taxes; and assorted deep-pocketed Obama campaign donors with conflicts of interest, the Washington Times reports.
No wonder investors have such little faith in the president's scattershot recovery plan.
Ping to a Republican-American Editorial.
If you want on or off this list, let me know.
But remember, this is CHANGE WE CAN BELIEVE IN !!!!!!
Obama could claim innocence, as a man with very little resume.
“Guilt by Association” won't cut it anymore, when he HIRES these people or appoints them to advisory positions.
How come NObama has NOT pardoned O J Simpson and put him in charge of the new department of Protecting Women Subjected to Abuse?
Thanks for the ping Graybeard58
