		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;This is the Russian Army version of the Presidency; point at the map and say “Take that hill” even though there is a river in the way and the troops have no boats. The generals salute, issue the orders, and the troops dutifully march into the water and drown.

Bishop on May 18, 2009 at 8:50 AM&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Beautiful!

Even worse is Obama then saying that Treasury&#039;s moves are &quot;Unsustainable&quot;. This is suicide for no purpose.

Does this mean that the printing presses will be stopped? No. Does this mean that Banks will get clear guidelines for loans? No. Does this mean that the budget will be repealed and balanced? No. Does this mean that the Stimulus money will be repealed? No. Does this mean that Government Run Health, Government Interference in the Private Sector, Government Bailouts, ANYTHING will be stopped or rolled back or not implimented? No. The Treasury is blind and being run by an Obama.</description>

		<description>Here is a liveleak &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=708_1212766386&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt; Bilderberg&lt;/a&gt; 2008 guest list

Bilderberg Group is creepy IMHO. There are a number of these &#039;influential person gatherings&#039; which are semi private as participants tend to play up the secrecy while leaking their own goals, which tend to be globalist in the name of a better world.

Such groups seek out people of wealth and power and have goals that involve altering world systems for the betterment of mankind. Because they are non elected, not accountable, and secretive they are a bad reference for the elected  accountable or appointed accountable persons who get invited to join the secret problem solving group.

I dod not even like Hillary&#039;s secret Health Care research when Bill was President

I notice they tend to invite up and coming potential power figures into the group. It is a bad play for military to be in such groups. Leads to a lack of trust

I find it disappointing so many influentials fall for the honor off being invited to the secretive society where they can hobnob with the elite. It leads to delusions of grandeur and a disconnect from the peasants who often made their status possible</description>

		<description>Oh and by the way, guess where Tax Cheat Geithner was recently...&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.prisonplanet.com/bilderberg-2009-attendance-list.html&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;BILDERBERG&lt;/a&gt;!


Along with the following so-called &quot;Americans&quot;...


Donald Graham, United States (Washington Post Company)


Richard Holbrooke, the U.S. (Obama’s special envoy for Afghanistan and Pakistan)


James Jones, the U.S. (National Security Advisor to the White House)


Vernon Jordan, United States


Robert Keigkan, United States


Henry Kissinger, United States


*--One of the BIG NAMES going to this globalist conference--and has for a long, long, long time.



Jessica Matthews, United States


Craig dirty, U.S. (Microsoft)




These two names should shock you &quot;conservatives&quot;



&lt;strong&gt;Richard Pearl, United States (Αmerican Enterprise Institute)

David Petreaus, United States (head of the Central Administration of the U.S. Armed Forces)
&lt;/strong&gt;



David Rockefeller, U.S.


Dennis Ross, United States


Ruby Barnet, United States


Samer Lawrence, United States


Peter Thiel, USA


Paul Volker, the U.S.


James Goulfenson, United States (the former World Bank President)


Paul Goulfovits, United States


Farint Zakaria, United States (Analyst Journalist, Newsweek)


Robert Zoellick, United States (President World Bank)


Now someone try and tell me Bilderberg DOES NOT EXIST!  You think that way, you are part of the false left-right paradigm--AND GET YOUR HEAD OUT OF YOUR A$$!


If that doesn&#039;t do the trick, perhaps this video (embedded in &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.prisonplanet.com/wearechange-ohio-confronts-soledad-obrien-about-bilderberg.html&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;this link&lt;/a&gt;) where a group called WeAreChangeOhio blitzes CNN info-tart Soledad O&#039;Brien--And for her--MASSIVE FAIL!</description>

		<description>How come nobody in the conservative blogosphere has discovered the goldmine of a meme here?  &lt;strong&gt;100+ days into his Presidency, which is taking place during the worst economic meltdown since the &#039;70s, Obama has not staffed the Treasury Department.&lt;/strong&gt;

That&#039;s something that everyone can get angry about, something that indicates poor job performance even if one agrees with Obama&#039;s policies.  

We should start a list:  &quot;Things Obama finds more important than staffing the Treasury Dept. in the Middle of a Recession.&quot;

1.  Weekly cocktail parties
2.  Watching the new Star Trek movie
3.  Buying a dog

etc.,

etc.</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;the Obama Administration’s cavalier attitude toward contracts and the rule of law.&lt;/blockquote&gt;


That line alone, is disturbing. Not because it&#039;s true, which is blatantly obvious. But because no one....no one in Congress, or the administration is standing up, and saying Mr. President....you are breaking the law, and it MUST STOP!!!</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;Treasury’s ad-hoc management, which is dominated by a small band of Geithner’s counselors who coordinate rescue initiatives but lack formal authority to make decisions.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

This really means they&#039;re all cluless, nothing is getting done, decision makers are clueless. So its a clown Circus.</description>

		<description>Maybe I have a too simplistic idea about this, but it seems to me that the Treasury Department is now just a front for funneling taxpayers&#039; money to the Democrats and their favored groups.

As such, it really doesn&#039;t need that many people in it, plus it&#039;s better to have fewer who know what you are up to.</description>

		<description>I&#039;m still curious about one little thing:

According to Turbo Tim, it was only after he started going to a tax professional that he became aware of his tax obligations for prior years.  Preparing his own returns in 2001 and 2002 is where he went wrong.

So how did he get his taxes done &lt;strong&gt;PRIOR&lt;/strong&gt; to 2001?

He identified only 2001 &amp; 2002 as the years in which he prepared his own taxes...innocently overlooking his tax obligations.  I therefore conclude that he also used a tax professional in years prior to 2001.

Why, I wonder, did he do his own taxes just for those 2 years?</description>

		<description>You guys are all just such &lt;em&gt;cynics&lt;/em&gt;!  Timmy is the kind of Stand-up, Righteous Dude who not only talks his talk, but walks his walk.  OF COURSE he hasn&#039;t hired a lot of folks to head the various departments in Treasury... &lt;em&gt;he&#039;s saving money, DUH!!!&lt;/em&gt;   He&#039;s more aware than you or I of how much it costs to hire competent executives, what with their ruinous bonus requirements and all.  If the New Corporates can&#039;t pay their execs, by golly Treasury will lead the way by not even hiring them.

That&#039;s leadership right there, boys.  Leadership.</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;I’m still waiting to use my tax cheat stamp.

&lt;/blockquote&gt;

I&#039;ve had mine for months, but have yet to see any money with the Tax Cheat&#039;s signature on it.  What&#039;s up with that?</description>

It&#039;s a sad day when Moonbat Robert Sheer of the pinko commie Nation Magazine makes sense.

Where are the Republicans in Congress on this? They should be howling like wolves.</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;From Wikipedia: In the movie, tiny Freedonia (&quot;Land of the Spree, and the Home of the Knave&quot;) is suffering from severe financial problems, and government leaders request a loan from wealthy widow Mrs. Teasdale to keep things afloat. The widow agrees on the condition that Rufus T. Firefly, played by Groucho Marx, take control and run the country. In the musical number that accompanies Firefly&#039;s first day in office, Groucho lets the audience know how things will run, singing lyrics such as &quot;if you think this country&#039;s bad off now/Just wait till I get through with it.&quot;&lt;/blockquote&gt;

This administration is best characterized by not &lt;em&gt;The Little Rascals&lt;/em&gt;, but by the above movie, &lt;em&gt;Duck Soup&lt;/em&gt;.  
&lt;strong&gt;
Freedonians Arise!&lt;/strong&gt;</description>

This can’t be said enough. There may be some administrations from the 19th or early 20th century that were pretty bad too, but I doubt any of them were so fixated on purposely trying to make America a third-world craphole.

Bishop on May 18, 2009 at 8:59 AM&lt;/blockquote&gt;

And what I have to say about the people who vote them into office and/or voted into power the man who appointed them is best left to myself.  Unfortunately, America deserves this right now... even though it means taking those of us who saw it coming down with them.

Part of me is very optimistic about 2010 and 2012 but another part of me worries that Obama&#039;s followers and the media will double down and somehow be able to continue on another term.... consequences be damned.</description>

		<description>Hope and change.

This is what change in contract law looks like.  What is it with the narrow minded conservatives?  Just change the terms in a contract.  Who needs permission.  Remember He won.</description>
