So 24 trillion, where can we go to VALIDATE, or verify these numbers that get tossed around with such conviction. I hear politicans speak and they use ‘other’ numbers. I’d like to know where the STANDARD, or the Pitch Pipe is playing DOE...as in Do, Re Mi...and get to the bottom of how much indebtedness we REALLY are up against...divided by each WORKING tax paying American, discounting kids and retired citizens and illegals.

Another Goldman lackey. The most pathetic tableau of the “financial crisis” fiasco last fall was the moment Paulson, Treasury Sec. and former bigwig at Goldman, got down on his knees in front of Nancy Pelosi to beg her to pass the bailout plan for AIG. AIG could then pay Goldman the $12 billion it owed them, and Goldman didn’t lose a dime, thanks to the U.S. taxpayer.
Goldman Sachs owns this government. Everyone who is connected with that malignant corporation should be banned from D.C. and from having anything to do with our currency.

I subscribe to the view, sometimes expressed here and elsewhere, this this is the clown who got us into the mess. Now, all his buddies are being handsomely rewarded for ‘getting us out of the mess’. I am certain that when he retires from this particular job he will be offered several ‘offers he won't want to refuse’. And we wonder what motivates the bearded birkenstock-wearing lefties. What has surprised me is how willing Obozo is to work with them. I am sure that they are ‘useful idiots’ but they are getting a high payoff for their status. When will we hear the tumbril coming to take them to the guillotine?

You could train a chimpanzee to hit the “print money” button at the Fed every-time the Fed phone rings with a Wall Street number and get the same results. To date, Bernanke has spent or put the taxpayer on the hook for some $24 TRILLION in bailouts, lending windows, and off balance sheet arrangements.

Tell it like it is, tell it like it is!!!

Goldman Sachs and the NY Fed pretty much run this country.
