FDR seized all the gold and paid cut rate for it. Then he resold it on the open market and drove the dollar down 70%

And the Fed is buying bonds, flooding the market with excess dollars. What's the difference?

Is Barry saying “You ain’t seen nothing yet” the same as Rahm Emanuel saying “Don’t waste a serious crisis”?

Yeah, I thought that too and Keifer’s dad is even a bigger socialist. But people want to have heros and there is hardly anyone who leans to the right in the media. The divide between fiction and reality can be staggering: where actors play honourable characters or certain types of people and their real life is quite the opposite. That is why they're called actors.

You’re right, Donald Sutherland is a really way over the edge Leftist.

I’m sure that Kiefer Sutherland would just like to throttle the character Jack Bauer, so to speak. However, he’s not SO much of a socialist that he doesn’t “put up with” making lot o’ money playing a character that he do doubt despises.

“You ain’t seen nothing yet.”

That’s what scares me.

“The vigilante Bond holders are starting to raise their heads.”

I sooooo read that as, “the vigilant Bond villains are starting to raise their heads...”

Bond Vigilantes Confront Obama as Housing Falters

Other economists are more pointed. After falling from 16 percent in the early 1980s, 10-year yields have nowhere to go but up, according to Richard Hoey, the New York-based chief economist at Bank of New York Mellon Corp.

“The secular bull market in Treasury bonds is over,” Hoey said in a Bloomberg Television interview. “It ran a good 28 years. They’re never going lower. That’s it. It’s over.”

"would put these first four months up against any prior administration since FDR."

He's not just a liar but a lying blowhard!

Vigilante Bondholders - there’s a term I haven’t heard of until today.

Are they a buch of pissed off rich guys who’ve decided enough is enough?

The bond vigilantes are being led by international investors, who own about 51 percent of the $6.36 trillion in marketable Treasuries outstanding, up from 35 percent in 2000, according to data compiled by the Treasury.

‘International investors’ that are pissed off about being ripped off. There’s no way we can ever pay them back and they know it.
‘First you make the money. Then you spend it.’ THE J.P. Morgan.
The American people have got to face the truth. We borrowed to keep up our lifestyle which we think we are entitled to. It doesn’t work that way. WE are to blame.
By destroying the ‘rule of law’, our basic trust or confidence in markets, which determines value, the Obama Administration has destroyed our economy.
The Fundamentals are broken. We are in uncharted territory now. May God have mercy on our souls.

[Cheney gets it.]

Yes, and Cheney ‘got it’ before Obama even started his destruction. He knew what he is.
