“This is a DOG and PONY SHOW for the PEASANTS!!”
And many FReepers are falling for it too!
Sense when does that make cents?
Rush is covering this on his Radio show today.
Christopher Cox, the SEC chairman in 2006, destroyed all the safety protocols and brought on the economic collapse...

He is.....and it’s GREAT stuff! Hope he posts all info to his site.
Rush has been on this story since he came on the air at 12:07 today. bttt
Help Change Wall Street

This is what the US government has come to? A laughing stock?
I have no problems with Goldman getting screwed.
Between our former Treasury Secretary protecting it, to the bailouts it received through its leverage over the AIG situation to its “conversion” into a bank to simply get covered under the US bailout umbrella, I want to see that sucker die.
Oh, and the fact that that Treasure Secretary and virtually everyone else at the top at Goldman Sachs supports LIBERALS, I have further reasons to relish its pain.
"...As soon as Winston had dealt with each of the messages,
he clipped his speakwritten corrections to the appropriate
copy of The Times and pushed them into the pneumatic
tube. Then, with a movement which was as nearly as possible
unconscious, he crumpled up the original message and
any notes that he himself had made, and dropped them into
the memory hole to be devoured by the flames...."
This morning SEC already wondering if FRAUD charges are the right thing to do.
Goldman sachs will get nothing but a slap on the hand. This is all for show so Obama will get executive power to control more. He will bail out who he likes and shut down the ones who oppose his power.
I don’t see it. Did they change it? Did you get a screen shot?
Obama placed his stocks in Vanguard because of a possible conflict of interest. Unless he sold his millions in GS stock, nothing is going to happen to them. This is all show boat time.

Not so quick! I have a guy inside Goldman...hold on...he is not saying much.
waiting...waiting..waiting... Hee! I will be back later if you get anything.
Any Federal agency headed by political appointees has but a shred of credibility anyway.
We should be careful in cheering on our government as it attacks our most competitive companies because some of their managers are big liberal supporters. That is no different different than how the libs trashed Halliburton because Cheney used to be the CEO.
As it is becoming more apparent, this charge is political, not substantive. It was timed to help pass the Dodd bill and to intimidate other companies into not opposing the Obama mafia.
We should be hoping Goldman prevails in this trumped up kangaroo court exercise. If they don’t, the rest of American industry is in big trouble.
So, did Halliburton get themselves reclassified as a bank to get bailout funds after their massive leveraged moves went south? Did Halliburton get the US government to bailout AIG so that it could get 100% of its money back with no losses or writedowns?
If Goldman was simply doing its own work and not conniving other people money to replace its stupid bets to the tune of 100%, and if it didn’t have a prior CEO help start this whole bailout process (who was an avowed Democrat, who Bush let into his cabinet to “play nice”), I’d probably agree with you. But that is not the case.
I’m sorry, I’m completely anti-Goldman, and for incredibly good reasons. “F” them.
This morning on Fox Business, there was a Goldman Sachs insider. Goldman Sachs is angry at being used by Obama and democrats for their finance reform. They said they have always supported democrats more than republicans in donations but that is about to change.
Thanks Obama!
Rush had a caller, google expert, explained the paid for top line add...it’s GONE now...LOL!!
