Kashkari Accused Of Bailout “Bait and Switch” During Angry Hearing
Former Goldman Sachs executive grilled by Kucinich and Issa
Paul Joseph Watson

Friday, November 14, 2008
Neel Kashkari, the fox appointed to guard the henhouse and front the multi-trillion dollar bailout, faced angry questions from Dennis Kucinich and Rep. Darrell Issa during a hearing today, as Issa accused him of playing a “bait and switch” game with taxpayers’ money.
All the major networks carried footage of the U.S. House subcommittee hearing this morning and aired Kashkari’s opening statement in full. But as soon as Kucinich and Issa were about to weigh in, the networks almost simultaneously cut the feed and moved on to a different story. Another example of how the corporate media is owned by the same elite that runs the Federal Reserve.
Kucinich accused Paulson and Bush of circumventing Congress by completely changing the destination of where the bailout money would go and refusing to disclose what had happened to $2 trillion dollars of taxpayer money, adding, “I think it’s fairly obvious that Congress would have never passed the [rescue plan] had it known how Treasury would marshal the resources it was given.”
(ARTICLE CONTINUES BELOW)
Kucinich’s battle with Kashkari went as follows, according to a Washington Post blog report.
“I assure you the secretary is passionate about this,” Kashkari said.
“Passionate about what?” Kucinich said.
“About helping homeowners,” Kashkari replied.
“Where?” Kucinich asked, sarcastically. “What country?”
“We are using all the tools available to ease the credit crises,” Kashkari said. “Let me give you an example…”
Kucinich interrupted Kashkari and continued his harangue.
“Maybe this is a game to some people in the administration. They’re on their way out of office and they can do whatever they want,” said Kucinich who tried to launch impeachment proceedings against Bush. “Meanwhile, people are hoping against hope” for help with their mortgages.
Kashkari tried to explain why the $700 billion was not used to buy troubled mortgages, but Kucinich would hear none of it.
Shortly after, Rep. Darrell Issa told Kashkari, “You’re here today because Congress is convinced you played a bait-and-switch and you’re not doing anything to convince us otherwise,” accusing the former Goldman Sachs executive of playing “ring around the rosie” with their questions.
Others slammed Kashkari for the administration’s agenda of helping banks while abandoning consumers.
“This administration wants to privatize Wall Street’s gains and socialize Wall Street’s losses,” said Rep. Elijah Cummings, D-Md.
“Secretary Paulson’s policy reversal breaks with Congressional intent, contradicts public assurances previously made by Treasury, and leaves the federal government without an adequate mechanism to stem a tide of home foreclosures,” said Kucinich.
“Thus, the only significant use by Treasury of the funds Congress authorized to address the mortgage crisis underlying the financial crisis includes, among other things, propping up a Beverly Hills banker to the stars; subsidizing the evisceration of National City Bank and the laying-off of thousands of Clevelanders who worked there; and indirectly funding the payment of bonuses, compensation, and dividends by financial firms that could not have afforded to make them without the TARP capital infusion,” Kucinich continued.

Dennis kicks ass! Barack should appoint HIM to the Attorney General position.

Shame on networks who didn’t show the Kucinich/Kashkari exchange! You are leading this country into viper dens.
November 14th, 2008 at 11:36 am
Dennis rules!!!
Pelosi is a filthy whore who will burn in Hell some day. That bitch did more to undermine Kucinich over the past few years than anyone else.
But the cocksucker Rahm Emanuel was a close second, and for any of you foolish retarded losers still chugging down the Obama kooaide. Fuck you!
This courageous behavior from Kucinich was beat down, opposed and negated by Clintons, Obama, Pelosi and the elites within the Democratic party.
Two party system?
It only continues because too many Democrats became LAZY and stopped looking for the truth. Easily seeing through the lies of W Bush, unlike the retarded trailer park gun loving bible thumpers who praise Bush and Jeeezzis…..these Democrats stopped thinking and gave it all up for Saint Obama. Fucking idiots.
What Kucinich did here was his job. Serve the American people by fighting corporate greed and corrupt government. Too bad he is the enemy of Obama and the entire leadership of the Democratic party. Too bad so many smug vain stupid fools voted for Obama.

Can any of the other senators/congressional reps declair this whole mess “unconstitutional”? What about Ron Paul, what’s he doing?
November 14th, 2008 at 11:53 am
And the outcome of their inquiry is nothing will change. They will continue to rape the people without regard.

Anyone really think about what a bank is really for. For me it is was place where I could cash my paycheck, and then create a method of payment to pay my bills.
About 10 years ago I wrote a few bad checks. I did it because I was living on the street and had no money and was hungry. I did pay it all back with double NSF charges and interest.
Regardless of my reasoning, I got put on the bad list, and could not open a bank account anywhere.
I then had to find a way to cash my paycheck and pay my bills. For the next ten years (and even now), I have not used a bank for anything.
I have been able to live a perfectly normal life with out a bank. I cash my paycheck at a check cashing agency. I have one Mastercard that is a debit card that is pre-paid. I load money on this card at lots of different places. The fee is 5.00, and I can load as much as $10,000 on it. To pay my bills I buy money orders. I have piled up a small bit of money (30K) which I have in gold coins. I have these stored at a private agency which charges me $2 per month to store it.
When people told me that they were worried about the banks going under, I thought it was pretty funny because I did not have a dime invested in any bank. Most folks know that when paper money is no good, gold is king. Most of the gold I bought over the last ten years costs me about $500 an oz, where its worth over $700 now.
Two years ago I took my first vacation ever. I deposited 5K on my pre-paid Mastercard over a period of a few years when money was good for me. I then took a fantastic vacation, all of which was already paid for.
I admit I do not own a house, but those that do are complaining right now and wished they had not anyways.
We really do not need banks. Banks need us. And it is just amazing to me that our approach to fix our financial problems is to help the banks, not the customer.
November 14th, 2008 at 11:55 am
I respect men such as Dennis Kucinich very much and laud him copiously for his efforts. However, he is pissing in a fan if he believes that Cash-Cary and his ilk will ever be held accountable or have to answer for what they do, when they do it, and who’s funds they utilized.
These are the henchmen for the “monsters” that run the show and pull all of the strings. They operate beyond reproach and beyond the reach of law. Never will the truth be known and all of the Dennis Kucinich minded individuals in government will never change that hideous truth whilst “they” are in control and have the only keys to the vault.

How does a bank make a living with out interests.
November 14th, 2008 at 12:37 pm
I knew it I knew it I KNEW IT!!!!
Back when they appointed this freak to the position, right here on prison planet I said his name had prescient meaning: that he would take our CASH and CARRY it right the F*ck out the damn door!!!!!!
What about those student loans & lines of credit Pelosi was yammering about that if they didn’t get billions for , would surely cripple our ENTIRE fiscal existence????! The banks didn’t re-open those lines of credit and we are still here.
Instead of doing as promised, they did as their Masters wanted and gave the money away in bonuses, dividends, you name it!
I say, put this guy in front of an execution squad and let ‘em pull the triggers!
November 14th, 2008 at 12:52 pm
They enhanced the economy, you know, from our hance to their hance, how sad America, we all look like such fools to the whole world for being such suckers, and it still goes on and on…the endgame is truely the end, the end of our way of life and the beginning of our slavery to the bankers….
November 14th, 2008 at 12:53 pm
Each American citizen should be given a substantial amount of money, say $10,000, from this bail out. Those who can should then invest in the companies they believe should go forward, to include viable alternative energy emergents, such as the magnetic motor/generator and solar energy solutions. In my humble opinion, this wiould kickstart the economy, giving us the much needed capitol to go forward. Clean inexpensive energy would bring jobs and industry back to the US. It would also be a big boost to our education system. I do not believe capitolism can survive without an open society or democratic republic. It’s more than time the “government behind the government” realized, the more they try to contol the masses through force, lies or manipulation, the less productive and more costly any real effort to solve the problems we face today will be. The last thing we need is to spend our hard earned money on body tags of any sort.
Further, I see no need to prop up any politically based company who did not have the foresight to stay competitive and all to keep money and power in the hands of those who gambled and lost. It is clear the American public has spoken and wisely about these issues and I, for one would like to know why we have been ignored, when many of our ideas make more sense than what is being done?
November 14th, 2008 at 1:01 pm
SmartHippie you rock!!! I Thank the universe there’s still at least a few who understand =) Go Dennis Kucinich!
November 14th, 2008 at 1:05 pm
Kucinich tried to impeach Bush and Cheney, but no one in the treasoness gov’t would have anything to do with it, and actually were accomplises in blocking it, these two plus many others should be at the end of a rope, but of coarse, congress will have nothing to do with it, and so the rape of our childrens futures goes on, sleep well tonight America, while the bankers go on unbelievably expensive vacations at your expense, you poor fools.

November 14th, 2008 at 1:30 pm
Lay off the bongwater hippie. Its a shame the networks didn’t show the precedings in its entirety . I’m sure there are a lot of homeowners hoping something positive will occur from this mess. It’s even more a shame that this one man is responsible for deciding ultimately where our money will go. Its obvious that Kashkari’s loyalties are to the banks that will eventually repossess our homes and land while sitting on huge sums of tender supplied by you and me. Assuming the population that voted for Obama are smug vain, and stupid fools is pretty lame assuming there was a decent candidate to begin with.
November 14th, 2008 at 1:39 pm
We should all go down to these people houses and take their holly possessions and see how they feel. I’m sick and tired of these nitwits in Congress paying off all their friends, making money for only the select few and not giving a crap about the common folk. Take their lives, their homes, and loved ones and destroy them just as they have done to every working class American that makes less than 250,000. We all, will be faced with the day, when the mortgage will not matter and survival will be what is lefts for all of us. V for Vendetta meets Marshall Law and we need to show people that we can bring the pain if necessary.

The fed hired this guy to be the fall guy, because there always has to be someone to blame other than the real evil doers. Kashkari is to the bail out, what bin lauden is to 911. I want to see paulson answer those same questions and watch his evil ass squirm. Its all smoke and mirrors once again.
November 14th, 2008 at 2:21 pm
Where was Ron Paul during this hearing? I would like to see him put this guy’s feet to the fire.
He’d probably say in his own way that the Fed’s actions are nothing but a bunch of bullshit and only going to add to the problem, which is probably what me and the rest of America already knows.

AAAW, his poor wife has to be asked if he can join Obama’s Team of thieves. Poor rich bitch! She can’t take it anymore? And how much cash does she have? Is she sharing Neel’s bonuses. And now that she got some she wants to run with it. Get out of the lime light. Maybe she can’t leave the house because the neighbors are going to lynch her!

November 14th, 2008 at 3:38 pm
The Government is creating debt with the people’s money and later the people will have to pay the IMF back with interest. Later the people will be subject to Local, State, Federal and Global Tax on the same money that they gave them, If they can find work. Otherwise ………………………….!
Let’s Have a Party like the Bankers do. November 22, 2008 . JFK wanted to tell us but he was sacrificed to keep the plan secret. The plan to sacrifice “America” to the Global takeover of the Facist Military Industrial Complex. Also mentioned by Ike a Republican. It is America in trouble not political partys.

Naïve politicians…
“This administration wants to privatize Wall Street’s gains and socialize Wall Street’s losses,” said Rep. Elijah Cummings, D-Md.
Not the administration, you halfwit! The bankers! My god, politicians are spineless. This administration and the next are and will be beholden to the money that controls the political process.
How long are you going to let bankers and politicians destroy your children’s and grandchildren’s chances at a prosperous future?
This article is a classic example of how impotent the politicians are. Arguing among themselves while the bankers make off with the loot. That is what they’re paid for. The bankers employ the politicians to occupy the TV screens – give the populace something to gawk at – while they steal the money.

DENNIS KUCINICH IS A NATIONAL HERO
He is my president, now and always, and the only one in Washington, other than Ron Paul, who seems to have a backbone, a conscience, and boundless energy in the face of criminal idiocy. He is one of the hardest working humans on the face of the earth. I wish him all good things in this time of sadness for him and his family.
November 14th, 2008 at 5:35 pm
I am Laughing…as if we didnt see this coming. Bush, OBAMA and McCain all signed the bailout bill.
I laugh at all the Obamunists and Non-Conservative Republicans who said that this was needed…Ah Ha yepper it was. We just needed to give 1.2 Trillion Dollars away to gguys that couldnt get it out of the country fast enough. What most fail to understand is that is OUR money…They stole it from US just as if they came into our home and took it at gunpoint.
What I would like to know is where we can buy Pitchforks and Torches?
November 14th, 2008 at 6:20 pm
we need REVOLUTION!
November 14th, 2008 at 6:22 pm
I will never stop reminding Bush, Obama, McCain, and Harry Reid that I never voted in favor of the bail out, don’t like the bail-out, and that this is the way the Bush people have robbed the American people. I am all in favor of taking Bush out of his office along with Cheney in handcuffs. This government sucks!
November 14th, 2008 at 6:29 pm
CHUMP…to his face…

“I closed my eyes, voted yes and hoped for the best” ????? What kind of shit is that?? Now you are asking questions? You had the fate of the country’s financial system in a yea or a nay and you are only NOW asking questions????? Your entire constituency was screaming NO!, and you were pretending to know better??? Where the hell did you come from??? How did you get into office, you stupid, ignorant, dumbass cocksucker. YOU need to be thrown the fuck out on your ass and hanged for treason you uneductated prick!

November 14th, 2008 at 8:11 pm
I always hear about people that want to get rid of George Bush, John McCain, Barack Obama, Henry Paulson, Neel Kashkari, Rahm Emmanuel, Michael Hayden, Israel, the government, the two party system, Nancy Pelosi, rah rah rah the list is endless. How are you going to do that when you like to sit at home and enjoy every bit of luxury that these people smother you with? You people all say you want to do something but talk is cheap. I suspect that they will win and you will soon have your internet websites such as this and many other’s shut down and you will hide in your homes shitting your pants incase they come and take you away. The fight is out on the street. Not on your computer chair. You will lose because Americans are weak. Oh yeh they talk a good fight, that’s only because their government is the most corrupt on earth and has made sure that the US has remained top dog for the last fifty years and in turn given the American people an inflated sense of invincibility. Your government is now using the tactics against you people, that it has been using against the whole planet in order to keep them the number one superpower and only now that they are doing this to you, can you see them for what they are. You have had this coming for a long time. Let’s see if you can be as resilient as other nation’s such as Vietnam and more recently Afghanistan in defeating the American government and armed forces. I doubt you will get anywhere near toppling your own government because the American people are a bunch of piss weak, scared of their own shadows, only think they are something when they believe their system is right and just, every other nation is inferior, set of braindead zombies that are finally waking up to realise that it is all bullshit and it is freaking them out. None of you will do anything about any of this and you know it. You will succumb to whatever it is your government wants you to do. The people that fought the British in 1776 are all dead and the calibre of American left in it’s place today are not fit to shine the shoes of those great people.
November 14th, 2008 at 8:15 pm
WHAT THE FUCK? THIS ASSHOLE CASHCARRY DOES NOT KNOW(YEAH RIGHT)WHAT HE IS TALKING ABOUT. THE SOLUTION TO ALL OUR FINANCIAL PROBLEMS IS VERY SIMPLE.. NO USERY!! IF YOU CANNOT AFFORD IT SAVE YOUR REAL MONEY AND THEN BUY IT!! CREDIT IS THE PROBLEM IN THIS AND ALL COUNTRIES AROUND THE WORLD AND THAT IS HOW THESE BANKSTERS RULE THE FUCKING WORLD!!
THEY OWE NO ONE ANYTHING PERIOD!! MY CREDIT SCORE IS PROBABLY 0 BECAUSE I HAVE NONE. IF I CANNOT HAVE IT THEN I WON’T.

Response to post #50 from Susan…Obama also voted for it…remember? you are still caught up in the election.
Republicans havnt been in office since Ronald Regan. Bush’s policies are the same ones Obama promised…hahahhahahahahahahaha
This is what we get for not taking an active part in our political process. By allowing these idiots in Washington to have free reign with our money is wrong…
your all screwed.

I was watching when I realized his name was cash and carry…I have noticed this trend in names for quite some time now…Are these all agents given names to somehow mind f us? Osama bin laden and the next president is Barack Hussein Obama?
and why do all these people look middle eastern…?
I pretty much have come to the conclusion this is a grand mind f against Patriots…to f and f and f with us until we come out shooting…that’s what they want…they are picking a fight with the only men in the world with the ability to take them out…and they have to do it in broad daylight…therefore…this little wink wink tongue in cheek game…
God knows everybody else is too damn dumb to understand the insane lengths THEY go to practice what the protocols of zion referred to as make believe…
I encourage the Patriots to not even nibble at the bait and teach your children well…as we grow too old to fight this thing ourselves we might have to resort to individual tactics…such as taking the war to them as individuals…a sniper on a golf course?
a sniper near their favorite restaurant…leave the gun and disappear…one at a time…
Let’s then watch the smiles fade from their faces.

Thanks for putting your life on the line Alex when you are killed we will just stay in our homes, barricade ourselves in and shit our pants. Thanks again Alex.
You people don’t deserve to call yourselves Americans. The people that fought for your freedoms in 1776 are crying in their graves.

November 14th, 2008 at 9:45 pm
Fox was actually defending this douche earlier too…the whole remark about how they dont plan to give any of the money to the auto industry and kucinich says that the statement he made will reflect the rest of his career. The dumb anchorwoman didn’t understand how that was an important statement and how they are telling us they are going to be using the rest of the money for what they feel is appropriate. They don’t plan to invest in companies that are sliding downhill but the money was meant to help those companies…it’s like DOUBLE THINK because at the same time a person doesn’t want to invest in a company which is doing bad but…who’s money is this to begin with? it’s not theirs
November 14th, 2008 at 9:45 pm
The bailout plan was a sham from the beginning ,that gave billions to the fat cats and wall street manipulators while the home owners got the Marshall to show them the way out.The Bush creed has no limit he wants every penny to go to corporations big shots while the home owners take it on the chin.Kucinich is a man of integrity but he virtually stands alone against
the blood suckers of Washington.The Bush administration has committed crime after crime against this nation and the congress and senate backed him.Bush like all cowards always make sure that he has a sap to place the blame on when his plans are discovered.Paulson is willing to be that sap as long as the billions are going to him and his wall street crooks.With 67 days left in office Bush is intend on sucking every dollar he can from the tax payers.
November 14th, 2008 at 9:50 pm
None of you get it!
These people are above and beyond the law.
We will never know the truth.

paulson,bush,kashkari and the rest of the crinimals on wallstreet and the federal reserve pigs need to be arrested and put in prison or people must revolt, congress can do nothing,the military must take over to save the country.
November 14th, 2008 at 11:21 pm
Crooked Congress! And to think that the smug citizens of San Francisco reelected their chief crook, Pelosi, makes me want to give the finger to SF.
November 14th, 2008 at 11:24 pm
Well, yes, I think these people are above the law, essentially. What surprises me is how these criminals walk around so fearles of retribution. Let’s put it this way. If I were pulling this scam off on millions of Americans, I think I might only go out in public with a bullet-proof vest – maybe I’d have professional taster to make sure my food at the country club wasn’t poisoned.

They will get ALL the money and move to another country just about the time they are brought up on charges! Then they will have private armies gaurding them. This is a heist and everyone knows it! DEATH TO THE NEW WORLD ORDER!

A Biblical quote that may have relevance, “O LORD, punish those wicked people! Remember those who are suffering! How can the wicked despise God and say to themselves, “He will not punish me”? (Psalms 10:12-13)
November 15th, 2008 at 7:17 am
Regular guy. Look who’s talking. You can’t tell me to expire when you have no balls. Your entire life is about running off at the mouth. What the fuck have you done lately besides sit at home and shit your pants? You can’t tell me I am messing up the mix. What mix? There is no mix. All you people ever do is come on here and say this is bullshit, we should do this and that. You can talk all you like it won’t change a thing. The New World Order will win because you are all scared little girls. Where is your pride? Are you frightened of what they will do to you if you stand up and show yourself? Do you think the people that fought in the revolutionary war thought hey, I better not fight these people from England because they are mightier than us and we can’t win?
November 15th, 2008 at 7:36 am
Ashley – I was truly awakened in Mar 2002. But even before that, I was able to see that these hearings, whatever the issue, are nothing but a circle jerk. Nothing ever comes out of them. You have a committee sitting up there that more than likely are just as guilty as the accused. It’s an excerise in theatrics to give the appearance that your representatives are pulling for you, protecting you. When all along, there is a large enough majority on the committee that is complicit in the said crime/infraction, that the issue will be dropped. At precisely the moment CSPAN shuts down their cameras, the issue is dead.
As for these idiots who supposedly represent the people. I’ve come to recognize that our congress are nothing more than inside traders. Most of them are rich little shithead lawyers that buy their way into their seat through the special interests that they represent. You heard the one asshole even admit, “You’re from the last place you were at”….suggesting that he represented his fucking electronics company. They are their for their own special interests and say ‘yea or nay’ based soley on that. The hearings are a sham. You just have to pay attention to what is REALLY being said. I don’t care how hot they make the witness seat, or how much pressure they apply. Chances are they are either putting up a front or fighting to protect their own investments. There are a few excpetions to this, like Paul or McKinney. But they are the rogues, they are allowed to vent. Kuchinnich is just another self serving twit that is obsessed with himself and his (and his British wifes’) presidential aspirations.
All you have to do is look at the measily salaries these people get vs. their personal assets. They are not in it for the wages and benefits. They certainly are not in it to preserve the founding principles and protect the constitution. They are in it to enhance their personal wealth….PERIOD.
The congress is supposed to be the ‘people’. There would be no need to hit the streets, buy ammo, stock up on food etc. if these people would set up the barriers necessary to stop tyranny. If they let nothing get past them…..If they were relentless in this simple concept of protecting the constitution….we wouldn’t be even having this discussion. This is the core of the problem. It is the Congress who has ALLOWED this stuff to happen. They simply allowed it. And they continue to dupe the people into thinking that there is some semblence of representation by acting out these televised dog and pony shows. The monotone, supposedly raw reporting of CSPAN is impressive. But it’s also part of the web of TV propaganda.

Start flooding the filesharing networks (Limewire, Frostwire) with as much of this stuff as you can. I have been ripping youtube videos with Clive and uploading them for the last 2 months but now seemed to be getting blocked. How surprising!!!
November 15th, 2008 at 8:31 am
It’s sad and frustrating when people like Mr. Kucinich are the minority. The masses are doped and duped.
Have we crossed the point of no return? It’s looking that way, isn’t it?

Talk, talk ,talk. Oh don’t do anything. No don’t do anything because that is what they want. If you try and fight them they will just shut us down. Let’s just sit inside our nice little warm homes and talk shit on here until they shut this site down and shut us up. It’s better. Don’t kick up a fuss. Don’t try and fight it, just talk until they silence us. Yes, what a fucking plan that is.

Hey brainless, I didn’t suggest not doing anything…I suggested that the individual wage war as to not be seen or known…

Congress gave them the money. Even after the last. Eight. Years. If you don’t change what you’re doing, how can you possibly expect a different outcome? Where are all the good men?

With this video confession Cash’n'Carry proves his Treason against We The People
The question is. Which bank will we hang the bastard from?
November 15th, 2008 at 12:52 pm
I’m still wondering why the automakers aren’t going to the banks for the money they need. Isn’t that why the Fed gave the banks money so they could lend money to struggling businesses? I’m also in disbelief that companies are being allowed to declare themselves banks so they can get more money! This alone should be illegal. I hope I come back as an animal in my next life so I don’t have to know about any of this crap.
November 15th, 2008 at 1:22 pm
CALLING OUT TO A BRILLIANT MIND PLEASE!
This is what I and many others just do not understand-
1. The FED lends / loans money to the government that we know it cannot pay back and then adds interest making the situation worse?
2. The government then lends / loans this money to banks, automakers, real-estate companies, financial institutions, and everyone else that is going down the tubes and also adds interest?
At what point does the government lended / loaned money begin to be paid pack?
If it cannot be paid back to the government then how will the government ever pay back the FED?
3. Why are the terms “Lend and Loan” used in the same sentences – articles when they both carry different connotations in regard to each other?
Someone please explain this in “laymen” terms to us that are financial mice in a maze!
Thank you -

November 15th, 2008 at 3:31 pm
A little bit late for remorse now, US CONgress !!!
You already put the screws to us, and did it with OUR MONEY !!!
Time to tell those critters who voted FOR the $700Bn scam to not even bother coming back home!!! You worthless, criminal scum!!!
Why do we even need a CONgress that’s just going to “rubber stamp” any policy that cost We, The People mucho dineros!!!
Glad I didn’t put up any false hopes by ‘voting’ in this sham election “shell game”!
All I can say is: “It isn’t going to get any better with the ’shift change’ in Washington DC!”

On another note, I had an epiphany, Would you all like to know how we can win this war against the globalist criminals? LETS FIND OUT WHERE THEIR BUNKERS ARE HIDDEN! IF THESE SATANIC SCUMBAGS LOSE THEIR ABILITY TO HIDE LIKE COWARDS WHEN THE SHIT HITS THE FAN, IN THEIR FIVE-STAR HOTEL-LIKE BUNKERS LIVING IN SAFETY AND LUXURY WHILE WE ALL STARVE AND DIE, —- IF WE TAKE AWAY THEIR ABILITY TO HIDE————————- ITS GAME OVER!!!! WE WIN!!!!! LETS FIND OUT WHERE ALL OF THESE BUNKERS ARE!!!!!!!!

Carlos when you do evil things it shows on your face over time. Look at Brown and Blair ten years ago. PURE EVIL. Scary stuff!!! Goes beyond ageing.
November 15th, 2008 at 6:47 pm
Silver pixie 81 the damage has already been done. They have killed the consumer so any loans will not help the auto industry. Black hole!! The problem was in the creation of a false economy driven by asset inflation and debt.
The rabbit trap was set.
The Fed had the chance to solve the problem 5 years ago with interest rate rises but they kept them low instead..
Look up Alan Greenspan for all you need to know on this destructive short term policy.
November 15th, 2008 at 6:58 pm
Thats why people have no savings. Why save and earn say 2% per annum when you can pump money into property earning 20% per annum.
Work this one out they still want to drop rates. ANOTHER RABBIT TRAP FOR THE LAST SUCKERS?
One should base mortgage loans on the average interest rate of around 6%. One has a mortgage for 25 years not minutes.
November 15th, 2008 at 7:02 pm
I watched The Wizard of Oz last night on TBS, and Kashkari is a dead ringer for one of those evil flying monkeys!
November 15th, 2008 at 7:03 pm
Ask yourself why dont banks offer a 25 year low rate fixed mortgage.
THATS THE RUB folks.
November 16th, 2008 at 3:36 am
Sorry to spam. So much to say and ask………There is more money sloshing around now the printing presses have been running on hot. So much profit has been made over this MASSIVE boom time.
Where has this money gone? It does not just vanish over 5 years even with inflation!
November 16th, 2008 at 6:28 am
black budget denzil… black ops..
November 16th, 2008 at 7:45 pm
Kashkari looks like the bad guy in the Brendon Frasier Mummy movie!

Neel Kashkari aka “KashandKarry”… I’ll take your cash and carry it to wall street.
November 17th, 2008 at 4:26 am
The bailout noney is down the black hole just like it was always planned, when are the people going to get wise to these dog shit Bankers? They have planned this theft for over fifty years and probably longer. The war on terror is just another part of this scam. Wise up people! You are being conned big time.
November 17th, 2008 at 11:03 am

For now you look after the people close to you and protect wealth and health. Then you can spread the word. It can be as simple as an A5 mailer with INFOWARS.COM on. Write some well thoughout introductory and squeeze them through letter boxes localy and when your out of town. its a small price to pay for giving it to the man.
From little seeds.
November 17th, 2008 at 2:50 pm
Like me there are alot of people out there, right now, and for a long time that know things just aint right.
They just need some help connecting the dots.
Dont worry about the people that cant be changed but the ones that can, because they will be alot more help.
November 19th, 2008 at 7:59 am
I think its beyond hilarious. Everyone knows they just ripped off $2T, but the public are just a bunch of sedated cattle, and the VERY FEW voices of reason in the government are completely impotent. Don’t delude yourself, you won’t change shit. Even if they prosecute it will just be a patsy getting the shaft and not the real perps.
MOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOmerica
November 19th, 2008 at 4:35 pm
Kashkari must not have been liked as a kid. Someone needs to give who ever shaved his eyebrows a big pat on the back! How else would he have gotten those monster brows?
November 20th, 2008 at 3:18 pm
Actually we WILL change shit, stop being so apathetic and grow some balls. Because with the comment you just made you will fit right in with the cattle, what a sheep like person…
BBBBBBBBBAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAhuh?

This is all a bunch of shit, and waste of time and taxpayer money.
