The Founders aren't here making silly claims, just you.
Who do you imagine came into your house and took something?

Dubya used the phrase "Fire In the Minds of Men" in a speech regarding spreading freedom across the Middle East and the rest of the world.
The term "Fire In the Minds of Men" is attributed to Fyodor Mikhaylovich Dostoyevsky, who observed in his "
The Possessed" that such "fire" is more often manipulative and destructive than it is constructive.

Now you're pretending to be offended by an inaugural address written by Michael Gerson? The transnational pirate speech that broke into your home over the airwaves? Cool.

>>Did illegals break into your home? What pirates?
What pirates? Pirates like the ones wearing NyLons who securitized all that sub-prime A$$paper. Securitized A$$Paper, much of which was rendered via predation upon illegal aliens by predatory lenders whose management essentialy maintained "we're not predators - they're illegal, and uneducated, and stupid for signing documents that aren't in the same language our account execs lied with verbally to get them to sign; we're not predators they deserved to be taken advantage of".
Pirates like Goldman Sachs and BP who were evidently in colusion to dump shares before the SHTF.
Pirates whose moral compass is evidently not calibrated in the interest of the American People.

Goldman Sachs broke into your house? Those bastards. Did you ask them why they only sold 44% of their BP holdings? Surely they would have sold 100% if they knew what was going on...wink/wink.

1. In the weeks prior to the Deepwater Horizon catastrophe BP CEO Tony Hayward sold 1/3 of his BP shares, using the money to pay off his family mansion.
2. During those same few weeks Goldman Sachs shorted 44% of its BP holdings, while Wachovia and UBS sold 98% and 97% of their BP holdings.
etc etc etc...

That proves collusion? And why was their ESP so weak?
And who do you imagine came into your house and took something?

Sold, the word is sold, not shorted.

Whenever anyone sells stock, it's collusion.
When they buy stock too.

Tony Hayward financed his mansion with sub-prime did he? That how smart is defined in the 10Ringed edition of the Newspeak Dictionary?

That is correct.
"Bill was the 'go to' guy as Developers come. Always reliable not only in his time, but in his work product. Bill worked on several major initiatives that I had leadership over at ACC Capital Holdings (aka: Argent Mortgage and now Citi Residential). Key projects were Appraisal Automation, new Product line launches. I would say that Bill often went above and beyond my expectations by working late nights and weekends not only to get to the job done or meet deadlines, but to free himself up to do more and be ahead of the game! Bill is a man of integrity and cares about a job well done, he is always willing to lend a hand on issues - even from previous projects. Along with Bill's technical expertise, he can articulate the technology that he is building very well - which is a plus for clients! As I've often specifically requested Bill for my projects in the past, I would gladly recommend him for any opportunity."
>>so, you broke into your own home?
Only to the extent that those of us who recognized the corrupted "immune" forest, among the compartmentalized trees, were unable to stop what was going on.
Dear Mr. Lee: I was previously employed by Argent Mortgage for two and a half years and managed, among other areas, the corporation's fraud investigation, borrower complaints and repurchase departments. There are currently over 568 open fraud investigations involving hundreds of brokers and hundreds of millions of dollars in fraudulent loans that are being covered up by top executives in the company. If a broker sustains a certain monthly volume, Argent management looks the other way and, not only does not suspend the bad brokers, but knowingly sells these fraudulent loans on the secondary market to unwitting investors.
I was terminated today and left with just my purse in tow, but I have names of individuals in the company who need to be served with subpoenas to enable them to turn over their spreadsheets and boxes full of documentation and evidence of all the fraud they have found that is being covered up by Argent Mortgage's executive management. The state regulators need to know the truth about the blind eye Argent turns to the fraud perpetrated on innocent consumers by high volume brokers. They also need to be aware that Argent knowingly bundles these fraudulent loans and sells them as mortgage-backed securities on Wall Street, thereby compromising the SEC, as well as our country's economic stability.
At a recent fraud seminar attended by hundreds of mortgage lenders in Washington D.C. a week ago, an attorney who works for Argent's retained law firm, Buchalter Nemer, stood up and told the seminar attendees that the wholesale lenders in the audience had better beware, unless their name is Argent. Argent is safe from investigation because the government got their $325 million settlement from Ameriquest and won't be looking into Argent, per the settlement agreement. I hope this isn't true because Argent Mortgage funded over $50 billion in 2005 and is gearing up to fund well over $80 billion dollars of fraudulent loans in 2007.
What would you have done, 10Ring?
