Videos: Ron Paul and Michelle on Congress’s phony AIG outrage and bogus bonus tax
posted at 7:20 pm on March 19, 2009 by Allahpundit
Two clips, the first from the House floor this morning and the second from Cavuto this afternoon but identical in theme. The greater outrage isn’t corporate malfeasors walking away with millions they didn’t earn but the feds dumping trillions that we’ll never see again into a bailout sinkhole and then burning AIG in effigy to keep the heat off themselves. With measures that are, lest we forget, at least arguably unconstitutional. Exit question: Will the boss join the rEVOLution?

Allah is really pushing the envelope now.
Michelle is gonna go open borders on you buddy for comparing her and Ron Paul.

Insanity on Capitol Hill. No adults to be found.

Not a Paulian… but on some things he is right.

Nice Ron Paul. Leave out the troofer-neo-nazi stuff and your on your way.
RobCon on March 19, 2009 at 7:26 PM
What do you mean “Strange bedfellows”? I take it to mean you’re surprised Michelle has taken her current position. Regardless of what you think of Ron Paul in general, you can’t claim you didn’t know verbatim what he would say about the whole thing.
radiofreevillage on March 19, 2009 at 7:26 PM
Hey AP, where’s the main post about Gov.Palin refusing half the stimulus dollars? You gave space to Sanford and Jindal for doing far less.
promachus on March 19, 2009 at 7:27 PM
The problem is their are hacks who are in it only to fill their own pockets. They don’t give a shit about anybody but themselves. They are the worst of us, not the best. They all need to go.
TheBigOldDog on March 19, 2009 at 7:30 PM
He’s trying to find a news story to balance the Palin post. If he is forced to post something positive about her he has to find a hit piece for par.
portlandon on March 19, 2009 at 7:31 PM
Paul does. Its some of his followers who are crazy
offroadaz on March 19, 2009 at 7:31 PM
Coming back to the fold, Ronnie?
After all, what’s Love backwards, or EVOL, as you touted? Hate.

Second look at Ron Paul.

All in or look like you’re playing politics.

This is AP’s affirmative action on behalf of wacko libertarians (I am not speaking about Michelle-after all this is her site-I love her). Having said that Ron Paul is absolutely correct on this occasion. Even a blind squirrel can find an acorn once in a while.

That has always been one of Ron Paul’s positives, he hates spending. Some of his other positions are just nutty.

Nice Ron Paul. Leave out the troofer-neo-nazi stuff and your on your way.
RobCon on March 19, 2009 at 7:26 PM
+1.
But I do wonder who he would ask to enforce his ban on abortion.
I actually don’t limit that question to Paul. It’s a broader issue I have with small government/libertarian cons who are stridently anti abortion.
barkolounger on March 19, 2009 at 7:41 PM
You know, if AIG filed timely 10-Q’s with the retention bonus’ shown inside the cover page, then we really are dealing with ‘Romper Room’, (which unfortunately dates my childhood….).
My real concern here is Ron Paul’s valid point regarding the Fed. He has always been ‘anti-Fed’ given its unaccountable and ‘private’ status. However, there is no doubt we have a runaway train now. I mean, ‘unilaterally’ deciding at yesterday’s meeting to ‘print’ 1.25 trillion, and buy 300B of treasuries seems reckless at best.
So now we have a Fed conveniently billing the taxpayers unlimited interest with the printing of unlimited money and ‘creating’ unlimited debt. No accountability, and a president not even willing to question any of it. Like a box of chocolates, the president and congress throw caution and prudence to the wind and say, “eat up”, ‘since you never know what you are going to get’. Unfortunately, it is dawning on the taxpayers too late, that they know exactly what they are going to get…….’left holding the bag.’
Starlink on March 19, 2009 at 7:43 PM
Thanks, Michelle, keep up the pressure!
We’ve got to clean up the administration and the Congress.
Throw the bums out!
Christian Conservative on March 19, 2009 at 7:45 PM
Ron Paul never talks troofer stuff. Or Neo-Nazi stuff. Did you listen to him at all during the campaign?
Jimmy Liberty on March 19, 2009 at 7:46 PM
Uh….. oh………

Paul’s best speech was the Iraq war debate in the middle of the patriotic bs from the right.
He stood up and blasted the neocons and said the war was dead wrong.
The man does have spine.

Only a communist nutcase like Barry could bring MM and RP together in such a glorious way!!
katy on March 19, 2009 at 8:00 PM
I was not a Ron Paul supporter during the primary. I really didn’t have a horse in the race until Fred Thompson. However, in hindsight, I think Paul was the most conservative of the entire lot.
I never got the impression that Paul was a “truther”. I know he received some criticism from Republicans because of his position on the Iraq war. I believe his position was that the United States brought the Sept. 11 attacks on itself due to our interventionist foreign policy. That’s sort of like saying “America’s chickens are coming home to roost” or something. However, it is a far cry from suggesting the attacks were authorized by the Bush administration.
eaglescout1998 on March 19, 2009 at 8:01 PM
That’s not “trooferism”, and it was also the position of the guy who led the hunt for Bin Laden at the CIA.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qZNfuIvtLos
It’s not crazy.
Ya, because he believes in limited government and freedom. Fringe groups need that. Doesn’t make it a bad thing. You’d think “conservatives” would want it too.
Jimmy Liberty on March 19, 2009 at 8:02 PM
you are free to vote for him next time he runs for president
runner on March 19, 2009 at 8:06 PM
Ya, I’m sure it had nothing to do with all the antisemitic stuff in his newsletters. You know, the ones with his name on them. Oh, that’s right, they were his, they had his name on them, but he never actually read them. That’s right! Silly me…
TheBigOldDog on March 19, 2009 at 8:08 PM
I am guessing Paul voted no today instead of voting no and then running back and voting yes to cover their ass.
getalife on March 19, 2009 at 8:11 PM
Oh ya, I know him. The guy who failed miserably leading to the worst attack on American soil in history. We should all listen to him. In fact, he deserves a really big bonus!
TheBigOldDog on March 19, 2009 at 8:12 PM
How many neo-nazi’s would praise MLK on the house floor? Or offer to help pay for a medal for Rosa Parks out of his own pocket?
Has anyone ever caught him speaking like a neo-nazi on tape? on camera? Nope, just the opposite.
Even the NYTs said that the newsletters didn’t sound like him. And you’d think they would be quick to attack a conservative Republican.
Not to mention the newsletters are almost two decades old.
Jimmy Liberty on March 19, 2009 at 8:14 PM
all these antisemites hide behind “isolationism” and “non-interventionism’ and then blame the Israeli lobby and neocons for all that is wrong in this world; Paul is cut from the same cloth and neo-nazis love him for it
runner on March 19, 2009 at 8:14 PM
Why are paleoconservatives always perceived as being antisemitic?

Kjeil on March 19, 2009 at 7:59 PM
It is symptomatic of what’s wrong with our party that you would infer from my comment that I was pro baby killing.
Perhaps I’m just a freedom loving conservative baffled by the idea that conservatives want to legislate what people can and can’t do in their bedrooms and doctors’ office.
You didn’t answer my question, who would enforce the abortion ban? What would you like to see the penalties be for Doctors and patients? And finally, who would replace the 29% of the pro abortion republican women we would automatically lose once it becomes illegal?
barkolounger on March 19, 2009 at 8:20 PM
Do you know anything about Michael Scheuer? How would you say Scheuer failed… because Clinton chose not to take Bin Laden out when he had the chance?
If you think Michael Scheuer is ‘crazy’ or shouldn’t be listened to, you’re not worth listening too. Disagreeing with him is one thing… dismissing an obvious expert is somethin’ else.
Even O’Reilly called Scheuer the top expert to discuss Al Qaeda with.

Or what they do with their property even if their “property” happens to be other human beings….
TheBigOldDog on March 19, 2009 at 8:23 PM
You’re just like any other peon. You don’t like Paul because he said “they attack us because we’ve been over there.”
And now you’ll believe anything bad about him, and reject anything good. Classic thinking pattern of a lemming.
Jimmy Liberty on March 19, 2009 at 8:24 PM
You’re not smart enough to put words in my mouth. In fact, you’re not even smart enough not to lie to yourself.

I predict more swear words on Hot Air….starting today :)
jcheney on March 19, 2009 at 8:32 PM
Paul’s been in the public eye for 35 years. Never said or done anything to make people think he was a racist. The newsletters stand in stark contrast to everything he’s said and done. Yet that’s what you want to concentrate on.
He did have a black man on his shortlist of VP picks… but let’s ignore that too. It’s easier to hate him if you think he’s a racist.
Jimmy Liberty on March 19, 2009 at 8:32 PM
Oh by the way….
Not that President Bush is running around trying to ‘re-cast’ his legacy, but given the first 60 days of this administration he won’t have to say anything.
Starlink on March 19, 2009 at 8:35 PM
Yes, you neocons have already told me you think the guy who led the search for Bin Laden in the CIA is a bloody idiot without a basic understanding of history.
And I’ve said, disagree with Michael Scheuer all you want, but if you think he’s uninformed and an idiot… well, then you are.
Jimmy Liberty on March 19, 2009 at 8:35 PM
Why don’t we just ask Meghan McCain if Ron Paul is like too radically conservative, like.
Just a thought.
Upstater85 on March 19, 2009 at 8:39 PM
He’s not a racist…He’s the Dennis Kucinich of the G.O.P.
…and that’s not a good thing there skippy…..
BigWyo on March 19, 2009 at 8:39 PM
So you think it’s ok to murder people in the privacy of your bedroom or doctor’s office.
I love freedom too, but my freedom doesn’t include me being able to kill other people, who’s lives would inconvenience me.
Kjeil on March 19, 2009 at 8:42 PM
Say what you will about Ron Paul, he got that exactly right.
Maxx on March 19, 2009 at 8:43 PM
Let me get this straight
1. congress (led by obama and pelozi) passes a bill
which they didnt read
2. inside this bill is a porovion by a known tax cheat hired by obama to run the irs to PAY AIG execs hundreds of millions
3. obama and pelozi and the rest sign it and rush it through
4. they get caught and scream to the AIG execs
How dare you take the money we gave to you by Legislation we passed

ALL OF THE EXECS AT AIG (to cover their democratic ass)
6. they they just PRINTED 1.2 TRILLION MORE DOLLARS and the dollar goes down by almost 4% in 24 hours.
and these shitheads in congress thing they will get away wit such abuse of power by throwing one man under the bus..
WE NEED A REVOLUTION AND I MEAN AN ARMED ONE..

jcila on March 19, 2009 at 8:44 PM
Frankly I don’t know why AIG isn’t being investigated under the RICO statutes.

jcila on March 19, 2009 at 8:47 PM
What is the Fed’s motivation for this? It seems like they are deliberately trying to bring about inflation, since it supposedly favors those holding a lot of debt. But we’re doubling down on the debt and buying all these treasury bonds. And who else is these days?

hell it was barney frank and dodd who gave the entire financial system aids by screwing it so hard
ALL of Wall street was Knocked off its foudations
and then the so called conservatives threw a match on it
by starting the bailouts (paulson was paying off his buddies in the hedge fund industry) including the saudis..

Section. 6.
Clause 1: The Senators and Representatives shall receive a Compensation for their Services, to be ascertained by Law, and paid out of the Treasury of the United States. (See Note 6) They shall in all Cases, except Treason, Felony and Breach of the Peace, beprivileged from Arrest during their Attendance at the Session of their respective Houses, and in going to and returning from the same; and for any Speech or Debate in either House, they shall not be questioned in any other Place.
READ the constitution,…
I have..
jcila on March 19, 2009 at 8:51 PM
For what? It’s owned by the US Government. The CEO is a Government appointee. The Government bought AIG not to save it but to use it as a conduit to bail out the European banks and Houses like Goldman which it new it couldn’t do directly without risking a revolution.
TheBigOldDog on March 19, 2009 at 8:52 PM
Whoa!! Put down the pipe…wow.
BigWyo on March 19, 2009 at 8:53 PM
Also the ceos (are private but responsibly under us criminal code for fraud)..
they can be jailed for that..
But congress is using the laws they passed
now for the first time..
TO activly Oppress a specific group of people
they originally gave legally money too
just to cover their ass
reminds me of nazi germany in 1938
jcila on March 19, 2009 at 8:53 PM
AIG could have easily been allowed to go Chapter 7 or 11 and basically all the CDS holders would have had to get in line with all the other creditors. Instead the Government bought it so it could payout those CDSs the banks were holding at par….
TheBigOldDog on March 19, 2009 at 8:54 PM
The list is almost endless.
Bush, Paulson, Obama, Gramm, Dodd, Franks, Pelosi, Reid, Greenspan, Geithner, Benanke, beaucoup people at AIG, beaucoup people at Goldman Sacks, beaucoup people all over Wall Street, people who bought more house than they could afford with many even lying about their income, and Juan McCain for being such a lousy senator, “suspending” his campaign to run back to DC and then run around like a chicken with his head cut off while there and being such a lousy presidential candidate, not that he would have made a much better president.

So let’s game this out. You and what army storm the capital?
How do you take out the guards? How many innocent people are you ready to kill while rounding up the guilty?
Once you have gathered up all the people you and your army plan to shoot, where will you shoot them? Will you make the executions a public event on TV?
Once the bodies are gathered will you leave them in the street as a stark reminder?
What is the next step, storming the white house?
Once everyone is dead what’s next? Who takes over?
And finally, what is the military doing during your populist revolution?
What are administration loyalist doing?
I’m only asking because you internet rambos surely have it all worked out before announcing your intentions on the internet. Right?

Thomas Gober, a former Mississippi state insurance examiner who has tracked fraud in the industry for 23 years and served previously as a consultant to the FBI and the Department of Justice, says he believes AIG’s supposedly solvent insurance business may be at least as troubled as its reckless financial-products unit. Far from being “healthy,” as state insurance regulators, ratings agencies and other experts have repeatedly described the insurance side, Gober calls it “a house of cards.” Citing numerous documents he has obtained from state insurance regulators and obscure data buried in AIG’s own 300-page annual reports, Gober argues that AIG’s 71 interlocking domestic U.S. insurance subsidiaries are in hock to each other to an astonishing degree.
Most of this as-yet-undiscovered problem, Gober says, lies in the area of reinsurance, whereby one insurance company insures the liabilities of another so that the latter doesn’t have to carry all the risk on its books. Most major insurance companies use outside firms to reinsure, but the vast majority of AIG’s reinsurance contracts are negotiated internally among its affiliates, Gober says, and these internal balance sheets don’t add up. The annual report of one major AIG subsidiary, American Home Assurance, shows that it owes $25 billion to another AIG affiliate, National Union Fire, Gober maintains. But American has only $22 billion of total invested assets on its balance sheet, he says, and it has issued another $22 billion in guarantees to the other companies. “The American Home assets and liquidity raise serious questions about their ability to make good on their promise to National Union Fire,” says Gober, who has a consulting business devoted to protecting policyholders. Gober says there are numerous other examples of “cooked books” between AIG subsidiaries. Based on the state insurance regulators’ own reports detailing unanswered questions, the tally in losses could be hundreds of billions of dollars more than AIG is now acknowledging.
One early sign of trouble came when Christian Milton, AIG’s vice president of reinsurance from 1982 to 2005, was convicted last year in federal district court of conspiracy, securities fraud, mail fraud and making false statements to the Securities and Exchange Commission. (Milton was sentenced in January; his lawyers have indicated plans to appeal.)

See, I tried this Ron Paul thing at the Jawa Report last week or so.
I found a video of Ron Paul making sense on the economy and dumping on the government.
Then the LA Times published a story about how Ron Paul was the biggest GOP porker in the House.
He got me for that one moment…for just an instant. And then, it was gone.
Good Lt on March 19, 2009 at 9:31 PM
He is excellent on fiscal policy. Foreign policy…not so much.
SouthernGent on March 19, 2009 at 9:36 PM
Ron Paul is a good, patriotic American who needs to be kept 1000 miles away from foreign policymaking.
So far, he’s outdone my nearest Republican representative on both the bailout and the subsequent 90 percenter. I’d sooner choose Paul over my own Republican rep.
MadisonConservative on March 19, 2009 at 9:49 PM
Paul’s position on earmarks is consistent with small government libertarianism. The entire budget should be earmarked, as he stated the other day.

The libertarian anti-abortion argument stems from the basic premise that (I’m simplifying here) anything is permitted provided it does not infringe on the life, liberty, or property of others.
Abortion in many peoples’ opinions (including my own) is a clear violation of the first.

ron paul is a fraud, and he comes to these positions from a different angle than michelle is.
and yes, he, his wife and his daughter personally profited for a decade from Racist and Crackpot Conspiracy theory newsletters for over 10 years. no doubt hiding funds from govt./taxes.
he also routinely goes on Alex Jones radio show, uses the code words for all the Birchers on the Illuminati, NWO, NAU, etc. etc….all wrapped into one way or another tying into the Federal Reserve conspiracy theories.

Not that I disagree with what he said about AIG and Congress here. He’s dead-on. But on foreign policy, on kooky conspiracy theories, and on racism, he’s a loon. Even on economics, he’s a bit out-there – probably closer than most Republicans to being sound though, but that’s more of a commentary on the sad state of the party than a redeeming quality of his.
OneGyT on March 20, 2009 at 12:46 AM
We are being lead by a Clown Car Congress and Admini-straction…We all see your feigned outrage…You are deathly afraid that you really cant fool us. You are right, you cant fool us with your outrage about AIG when you dont even know what is in your friggin Stimulus Bill. And you want to get a $3.6Trillion dollar Social Engineering bill passed. You are to dumb to know that the gig is already up. You cant run a company you bought 80% interest in. You dont know how to run a company, since 95% of you clowns have never had to earn a real buck in running a real profitable enterprise. You will not and we cannot let the Clown Car Congress and Adminstration run a Socialized Medical Program, which would represent the goverment in charge of close to 16-18% of GDP. (3-4x bigger than the Pentagon’s share of GDP). You will not and we cannot let the Clown Car Congress and Administration a Socialized Cap and Tax Energy Program, which would socialize another 5-7% of GDP with Mother Nature Pelosi running the US into the ground. I have visions of a post-Green disaster, Mad Max kind of World, with leather-clad, SF-based Sean Penns in charge. You will not and cannot let the Clown Car Congress and Administration have more liberal influence on education to preach and teach SF and Hyde Park vetted subjects, with do-nothing union teachers. Here are the stars of the Clown Car Company: Chris Dodd- Secretary of Lying and Mortgage Fraud Barney Frank- Secretary of “the other side of the aisle did it” Adminstration- I thought Barney was the “other side” kind of guy already. Mother Nature Pelosi- Secretary of the “I will get every last dollar of bail-out money for Socialist California” Department….no wonder she was on a pogo stick has Obama delivered his speech on Porkulus and his budget to Congress. She wants to open the borders to the United State of Cali-Mexico, the 3rd largest Socialist Nation in the World and buy everybody a free education, free health care, free oxygen, free condoms, and state sponsored octo-births, as long as she can hijack bailout money from the rest of us. Charlie Rangel – Head of taxation and tax cheating Administration Barack Obama- Head and Chief Executor of the Obama Head Fake Institute- -where you promise to cover all veterns health care, as long as the vets pay for it -where you promise to meet with the loyal opposition for TV, but allow Mother Nature to write the Stimulus. Omnibus and the 2010 budget without even reading it -where you say that the 18 month pullout of Iraq sounds about right, since the heavy lifting is already accomplished by people A LOT smarter than you. -where you promise no pork and going to go thru the budget line by line, then have to sign the Omnibus Bill in your secret bunker to avoid cameras and questions. -where you close GITMO as a showboat maneuver, without a real plan on what to do next -where you rail about FISA, then vote for it. -where you say on the way to LA that your plan for fixing health care, education and energy will help prevent bubbles and downturns…Mr President, please explain in specific economic terms how that works. You mean the oceans are not rising and the air is not cleansed. We are witnessing the beginnings of the revealing of the real Obama, who couldnt run a parking lot in downtown Chicago
