Obama in India: I Must Make 'Midcourse Corrections'
Associated Press ^ | 11/7/10 | Staff

Posted on 11/07/2010 7:55:00 AM PST by Nachum

NEW DELHI -- Followed by the politics of home, President Barack Obama on Sunday acknowledged that he must make some "midcourse corrections" if he is to win over a frustrated electorate and work with resurgent Republicans.

On the second of the three days he is spending in India, Obama arrived in New Delhi on Sunday afternoon in the company of his wife, Michelle. Among his airport greeters were Prime Minister Manmohan Singh, who apparently broke the normally rigid rules of protocol by making the trip to personally welcome Obama to the Indian capital.

New packaging for his failed policies, while claiming he’s “compromised” and the Republicans must do the same.

Or to be able to impose emergency/martial law, while his whole apparatus is safely off.

He can forget it.

He has already showed his true ambition which is to destroy this country.

To bring it down a peg.

And implement acts like Cap and Tax administratively, rather than through legislation.

Midcourse Corrections

He won't know what that means, until, he reads it on his teleprompter.

If the Republicans trust him, they are fools. If the American people trust him, they are fools. This guy is a puppet for others, like Soros and those that control the money in this country. He always bends to the Federal Reserve and the banks that control them.

One of the most revealing comments of Ohaha's (post-Midterm Massacre) press conference was when he whined: "folks didn't have any complaints about my leadership style when I was running around Iowa for a year as a candidate".........

Freud would have a field day with this guy. He still doesn't get it.

He's laboring under a cockeyed notion......he duped America into voting for him, and figured we'd all lie down and let him walk all over our beloved country, wearing his Marxist jackboots.

The message of Nov 2 was, in a nutshell, "That ain't gonna happen."

==========================================

Obama's campaign rhetoric of "bipartisanship and forging consensus" has been shown to be a sham........leaving his Left-wing core exposed.

This character was the biggest friggin' liar ever to run for president. He duped voters, and cavorted around the states using focus group-tested statements like, "I want to be another Reagan." He's like a carton of sour milk--everything he says comes with an expiration date.

==========================================

DESTINED TO BE HIS DOWNFALL Republicans intend to capitalise on Obama's vanity and highlight his default ideology and determination to keep pushing his Marxist brand of "progress." He is about to become the Relevant Progressive President.

About time this sucker felt the lash of the voters' discontent.

"Midcourse correction"

The only thing obama will do, is issue more executive orders, undermining the Republic, while publicly blaming Tea Party for his failures.

You go ahead with those "mid-course corrections", but, Gravity is a bitch.

Back in July he said we were "headed in the right direction"...but, he hasn't said much that's ever been right anyway...

This guy Obama is a puppet for Soros and those that control the money in this country.

HERE'S WHY OBAMA WENT TO INDIA: 8/26/10 Soros' Quantum hedge fund last week purchased Dubai Financial Group's 4% stake in the Bombay Stock Exchange....... Soros' investment comes as India works to modernize its capital markets, opening new exchanges, streamlining trading and introducing new products, like currency futures. India's stock markets are of increasing interest to foreign investors. Brokers own 44 percent of the BSE, with public shareholders controlling the rest.

Thirty percent of public shareholding is in the hands of foreign entities, including Deutsche Boerse, the Singapore Stock Exchange, Canadian financier Tom Caldwell, and US private equity group Argonaut Ventures. Indian law prohibits foreign investors from holding more than 5% in a local exchange. The BSE had 4,990 listed companies as of July and a market capitalization of $1.4 trillion, according to its website.

Soros sold his entire Petrobras stake (Brazilian oil---Soros got $2B from Ohaha) to help finance the purchase of 4% stake in Bombay Stock Exchange. Buying and selling of non-US listed companies, including ADRs on US stock exchanges, is not required to be registered on the SEC forms.

Soros Fund Management LLC

New York, NY 10106

Title Name Age
Chairman George Soros 80
Deputy Chairman Robert Soros 45

Chief Operating Officer Abbas F. (Eddy) Zuaiter 43

Abbas F. "Eddy" Zuaiter is a member of the Boards of Directors of the Institute for Middle East Understanding (IMEU) and Middle East Institute (MEI). His brother Ahmad F. Zuaiter (42) is also a high ranking executive in Soros Fund Management.

Youngest brother, actor Waleed Zuaiter, had roles in 2008 BBC's House of Saddam, The Unit, NCIS, and Lie To Me.

I love when he said that when the US Public is not happy - it’s their duty and right to vote in change - and then answered the quetion about Afghanistan - stating that it wouldn’t be like “he designed it” and that it would take on an Afghan flare...of course he was saying - “I’m trying to find out who’s a$$ to kick - and the US Public is kicking my a$$ out of office!”

Of course I could have translated that wrong...

Obama always bends to the Federal Reserve and the banks that control them.

Here's how Obama "Stimulated" the Economy......by run-away spending

The US Treasury entry must be seen in this context. COS Rahm Emanuel took control of the US Treasury when he crept into our WH. Read on.

Behind The Real Size of the Wall Street Bailout (more like $14 trillion)
Mother Jones | Dec. 21, 2009 / FR Posted January 04, 2010 by E. Pluribus Unum

A guide to the abbreviations, acronyms, and obscure programs that make up the $14 trillion federal bailout of Wall Street.

The price tag for the Wall Street bailout is often put at $700 billion—the size of the Troubled Assets Relief Program. But TARP is just the best known program in an array of more than 30 overseen by Treasury Department and Federal Reserve that have paid out or put aside money to bail out financial firms and inject money into the markets. To get a sense of the size of the real $14 trillion bailout, see our chart here. Below, a guide to the pieces of the puzzle:

Treasury Department bailout programs (controlled by Rahm Emanuel)

Money Market Mutual Fund: In September 2008, the Treasury announced that it would insure the holdings of publicly offered money market mutual funds. According to the Special Inspector General for the Troubled Asset Relief Program (SIGTARP), these guarantees could have potentially cost the federal government more than $3 trillion [PDF].

Public-Private Investment Fund: This joint Treasury-Federal Reserve program bought toxic assets from banks and brokerages—as much as $5 billion of assets per firm. According to SIGTARP, the government's potential exposure from the PPIF is between $500 million and $1 trillion [PDF].

TARP: As part of the Troubled Asset Relief Program, the Treasury has made loans to or investments more than 750 banks and financial institutions. $650 billion has been paid out (not including HAMP; see below). As of December 21, 2009, $117.5 billion of that has been repaid. Government-sponsored enterprise (GSE) stock purchase: The Treasury has bought $200 million in preferred stock from Fannie Mae and another $200 million from Freddie Mac [PDF] to show that they "will remain viable entities critical to the functioning of the housing and mortgage markets." GSE mortgage-backed securities purchase: Under the Housing and Economic Recovery Act of 2008, the Treasury may buy mortgage-backed securities from Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. According to SIGTARP, these purchases could cost as much as $314 billion [PDF].

--SNIP--- long read

Federal Reserve bailout programs

Commercial Paper Funding Facility: With the support from the Treasury, the Fed established the CPFF in October 2008 to increase the availability of short-term debt (commercial paper) funding. Up to $1.8 trillion [PDF] was earmarked for the program.

Mortgage-backed securities purchase: In 2009, the Fed earmarked up to $1.25 trillion to buy investments based on home loans.

Term Asset-Backed Securities Loan Facility: TALF provides financing to investors who are buying asset-backed securities. In February 2009, the Fed and Treasury announced an expansion of the program to generate up to $1 trillion in new lending.

Foreign Central Bank Currency Liquidity Swaps: The Fed has provided $755 billion [PDF] for currency liquidity swaps with foreign central banks.

--SNIP--- long read

=====================================================

DID GANGSTER GOVERNMENT SCAM TRILLIONS USING THE MADOFF MO? Ponzi Madoff created a supersecret labyrinth of interrelated international funds, institutions and financial entities of almost unparalleled complexity and breadth......with assets and businesses in multiple places overseas that hid thievery, money launderering and tax evasion. "Professor" Obama surrounded himself with Wall Street shrewdies---like Chief Shrewdie Rahmn Emanuel. Wall Street knows how to make money disappear faster than a cream puff at a Weight Watcher weigh-in. Imagine the wasted trillions...... tick tock, tick tock.....

A good mid-course correction would be for him to get off the plane in Indonesia and stay there. Don’t come home. He would be welcomed with open arms and he could run for President there..no problem.
I just hope he doesn’t risk any of our Air Force and Marine pilots flying into an ash cloud to get there.
