THAT STATEMENT alone renders the value of the rest of your post zero. Only an ignoramus could claim that Obama didn't inherit the mess. It is one thing to be partisan in politics; it is another thing to throw your integrity and intelligence out the door at the same time! -----Original Message----- From: profox-boun...@leafe.com [mailto:profox-boun...@leafe.com] On Behalf Of Bob Calco Sent: Tuesday, 10 February 2009 12:51 AM To: 'ProFox Email List' Subject: [OT] Pure Unadulterated Insanity http://tinyurl.com/dmo27g - - - The $9.7 trillion in pledges would be enough to send a $1,430 check to every man, woman and child alive in the world. It's 13 times what the U.S. has spent so far on wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, according to Congressional Budget Office data, and is almost enough to pay off every home mortgage loan in the U.S., calculated at $10.5 trillion by the Federal Reserve. - - - And the total tally of all US debt -- government and individual -- is $53 Trillion... soon to become almost $63 trillion. Get your head around that. All of us should get our heads around that. This is where do-gooder enterprises like "affordable housing" and government-backed this or that and entitlement bills-of-rights and making the world safe for democracy will get you, eventually: on the road to bankruptcy. Geithner's selection should speak volumes to the fraud that is Obama. This guy presided over this disaster as chief regulator of the NY financial district over the last 6 years (I thought Obama was going to stop the DC game of musical chairs?), is a proven tax cheat (some wizard of smart he is, can't even operate Turbo Tax... right), got obnoxious bonus/severance from the Fed Reserve to take the Treasury job even as he and Obama railed against bonuses for private sector executives, and now is the chief fox in charge of the hen house. All Obama cares about is maxing the giant credit card in the sky out to fulfill political pledges to his partisan interest groups---one last big bang of a payback that would wipe out half the Amazon rainforest if they had to print the cash the old-fashioned way (I guess that's one way to reduce CO2 emissions). I think he must know what he's doing is going to put the last coffin nail in the public's finances, and indeed he wants that to happen so he can make his actual agenda of tyranny palatable to the hoi polloi. Feel hope and change yet? You will soon enough. Well, the change part anyway. Hope is $10 trillion dollars further away than it was six months ago, and Obama is as much a part of making that happen as any politician in DC who voted for the bailouts and now supports this monstrous bill. The idea he merely inherited the mess is a lie which only a total ignoramus could believe. Maybe if he had been leading the last 4 years instead of running a perpetual campaign, and maybe if he was against the bailouts on some kind of principle, he'd have an argument, but no: he's just a pol, good for a rousing speech or two, but totally corrupt like all the rest. Sanity check: Has your finances ever been "stimulated" in a positive way by racking up 20% more debt with the stroke of a pen--debt you know you didn't have the means to repay in one, or two, or even three lifetimes of work? If you answered "yes" then go take your meds, you're late. - Bob "The American Republic will endure until the day Congress discovers that it can bribe the public with the public's money." -- Alexis de Tocqueville [excessive quoting removed by server] _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: ProFox@leafe.com Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/008101c98afe$ae6439a0$0b2cac...@com.au ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
