Can we start the campaign to force Rahm Emanual to give back the $320,000 he got from Freddie Mac?

Just wondering. I guess it should be paired with the One's $100k donation from AIG
TOPICS: Business/Economy; News/Current Events
KEYWORDS: bonus; corruptpolitician; emanual

I hate to sound cynical, but rules do not apply to RATS. Emanual will just thumb his nose at us and Obama will play the race card.
That being said, it would be worth it just to get them to do that!

It might work, it might not.
But the public relations aspect makes it a win either way.

I wrote my two conservative congresscritters two weeks ago regarding this issue (having all congresscritters return any money they received from bailed-out corporations). Their response?

Sounds like a good idea even if it’s just to give him heartburn. The pressure on obozo to release his birth certificate is stalled since SCOTUS, PUB Cong’l nor the media will focus on the issue. However, we know that it gave him some heartburn since he hired 3 different attorneys to represent him in the lawsuits filed across the country. It’s time to give ole Rahmbo heartburn. He’s HUGE ego demands that something be done.

Screw that. He needs to resign his position in the White House. The AG should investigate thoroughly and Special Prosecutor appointed to investigate that pompous dirtbag!

Why stop with Stinkerbell? Go for Moe, Larry, and Curly, too. Gorelick earned an estimated $26,000,000 serving as vice chair of Fannie Mae from 1998 to 2003.
The Clinton administration's White House Budget Director Franklin Raines ran Fannie and collected $50,000,000.
Big Democrat Jim Johnson, recently on Obama's VP search committee, has hauled in millions from his Fannie Mae CEO job. Johnson earned $21,000,000 in just his last year at Fannie Mae.

IDEA, put the info here on EVERYONE who got $100,001 or more from Lobbyists and name the Lobby.
Would make GREAT handwritten signs for Tea Parties, The Patriot Resistance, etc.
Barack 0bama: Give back AIG's $104,332
Chris Dodd: Give back AIG's $103,900
I can see the signs on April 15 and May 30 (in DC) already!

“Screw that. He needs to resign his position in the White House”
He needs to resign his position in the White House AND return the $$$$
To: HighlyOpinionated
Beck said he wanted to create a list of just ten things we need to demand now........this is one of them! If an elected official received money either directly or indirectly (from a campaign) from AIG, Freddie MAC or Fannie, or any company receiving a bailout, you need to return the money AND resign, Republican or Democrat!
To: JOHN ADAMS
For the two of them to give back the money would not make a dent in their Swiss accounts.
They are indeed in VERY high cotton.

This is Change we can’t believe in. These people are crooks.
