Gramm calls slowdown 'mental'

[AllieBaba]

You're as misinformed as Gramm is, Allie.

Not according to the labor secretary and all the stats.

We're in the real world now. Not lefty fairytopia.

Between that and Mac calling for the horrible death of Social Security... his campaign is done..

Mac doesn't have to call for Social Securtity's death, Social Security's Board of Trustees are calling for its death....

 

[jillian]

But he didn't use that sort of rationale. He referred to a "nation of whiners". Plain thinking tells me that he was talking about the nation collectively and not its representatives.

Pathetic that anyone bought his "leaders" line. lol...

McCain said the bad economy is in our heads, and mccain wants to drill in ANWR because it will give us psycholgical benefits.... and then Gramm will be happy because people will stop whining.

I think Obama's right...we don't need Dr Phil in the white house.

While I do think his comments regarding the lack of a textbook recession was stupid, I don't believe that Gramm would be stupid enough to call voters "whiners".

Speaking of drilling in ANWR for a psychological effect, isn't it the democrats in Congress that held hearings about speculation(the psychology) of the oil market.

Senator Gramm is absolutely right. I am so sick and tired of the whining crybabies who hate our President, our troops, our freedoms and America. If these whiners hate American so much, then how about the Socialist Paradise of Candana or Swedish? Our next President, John McCain, will cut our taxes more and defend patriotic Americans against the terrorists for 100 years if necessary because he was a heroic POW. And Senator McCain is a self-made man just like our President Bush and Vice President Cheney. They worked their fingers to the bone to get their money. So you envious Socialistic whiners, get a job or two or three. Just keep your Socialist hands out of my pockets.

Yeah.....this is a Bush Lover alright......clueless-as-Hell.​

Well another UNBIASED article from Politico..The Dnc might as well of wrote it.

The comments, in an interview with The Washington Times, could hurt the campaign’s efforts to convince working-class Americans that McCain feels their pain.

Ya' never noticed the date on the post, huh?

07-10-2008

BTW.....that's "...might as well have written it."

 

[Mr. Shaman]

For once I agree with Gramm.

We are a nation of whinners.

It's time to roll up our sleeves.

.......And, CLOSE-IN on.....

....Phil Gramm!!!!

UBS AG;
Immunity In Libor Probe?​

"UBS AG, Switzerland’s biggest bank, sought immunity from prosecution by Canadian regulators probing a potential conspiracy to rig the price of derivatives globally, three people with knowledge of the inquiry said.

The lender is the cooperating party referred to by Canada’s Competition Bureau in court papers filed by the regulator with the Ontario Superior Court in May, said the people, who declined to be identified because the identity of the firm hasn’t been made public.

The papers, shown this week to Bloomberg News by court clerks, indicate a bank told the regulator that traders and cash brokers conspired to influence the Yen London interbank offered rate from 2007 to 2010 to profit on interest-rate derivatives linked to the benchmark. Regulators worldwide are investigating whether banks attempted to manipulate the London, Tokyo and euro interbank offered rates, known as Libor, Tibor and Euribor."
