Bernanke & Paulson Broke The Law

[Harry Dresden]

You're worried about lobbyists now? We just got out of 8 years where lobbyists ******* wrote US policies. Energy lobbyists wrote our energy policies with Cheney, for example. Remember the California rolling blackouts? That was all faked so they could raise rates. Remember Enron? They were deregulated and then they started cooking their books.

I can tell you lean right.

And after the market meltdown that we are experiencing right now, you actually think we are regulating corporations too much? The oil companies gouged us because they weren't being regulated. The Credit card companies started scamming their customers. The Countrywides predatory lended because they weren't being regulated. The bankers didn't keep enough cash on hand because they were de-regulated.

Here is how I describe Independants. Independants like conservative values but they know the GOP aren't really upholding to those principles, and they don't like liberals but they know liberals are usually right.

Bobo your so dam stupid your starting to stink......the California Blackouts faked in a state run by your ******* democrates....Enron started their BS when your GOD Clinton and that ugly puss Reno was around.....when are YOU going to open your ******* eyes and realize that the Dems and Repubs are 2 sides of the same coin.....and no Libs ARE NOT usually right.....i can give you a dozen times they were wrong here in California,but yet they just keep throwing the same shit around over here,and it just keeps getting worse...heres one...when i moved out here in 67 from NY they said that Cali. was like no. 5 nationwide in education....now they are like 48....liberal ideas about how to educate have bankruped this states education,and their only solution is to keep throwing more and more money at it,to no avail,the list goes on.....wake up moron,and wake up those other guys up the lefts ass with you while you are at it......

Anyone who thinks the GOP is the party for them needs their head examined.

same thing can be said about the Dems dildo.....but you are to dam stupid to realize that,aint ya...

Strongarming, you mean like telling the credit card companies they can't **** us anymore with small print and tricks like moving around the due date?

Yea, sorry corporate America, but this country was founded for us citizens, not you. You only operate if we say you can, and only if you serve the public some good. That means hiring Americans, not illegals. Sorry if that rule gets in the way of your higher profits.

You can't sell us poison. Yet the GOP wants the drug companies to be immune from prosecution if their drugs kill us.

Anyone who thinks the GOP is the party for them needs their head examined.

Strongarming....like switching preferred stock to common stock.

Hey, if we have to loan a Corporation money, they no longer get to complain about too much government interferance.

And any company that is "too big to fail", needs to be regulated. Or broken up. You decide.

PS. Did you know that the original TARP of $350 billion, for every $100 we gave, they gave us back 66 cents in stock. THEN, the stock dropped. So literally we gave AIG $175 billion no questions asked.

And you are worried we are telling them what to do?

We don't have to loan money to a corporation...get that through your blockhead

No company is too big to fail....get that through your blockhead

Sealy...there is no company too big to fail. IMHO let the companies fail..let the chips fall where they will. let them file Chapter 11...that's what we have that for..let them restructure. But, don't let the government get involved bailing them out. This is where you think we need the government and I don't. The government gave the auto industries money, then more money, then they are still going to file bankruptsy. Don't you get that???? Some companies need to no longer exist. From that new companies will be born with better ethics. Geeze You left are so dense.

Nothing you said was wrong, but yet you still get a zero on the test.

1. If you don't understand why it is important that the US manufacture, and have a strong auto manufacturing industry, then I can't help you at this point. Americans just happen to be dense. Yes, I accuse you of being dense.

2. Do you realize how much GM and Chrysler going bankrupt will cost tax payers? We have to pick up all the pensions. GM and Chrysler executives are Republicans and want their companies to fail so they can renig on pensions. Them going bankrupt will also cause massive unemployment and lowered wages. But oh well, that means cheaper cars for you, right?

I only wanted GM & Chrysler saved for the sake of the country and the workers. But you don't care about either so

You seem to trust corporations too much.

Tell Paulson, Bush and Bernaeke that. And the majority of economists.

I think you mean, "no company should be allowed to get so big that they can't fail". That I would agree.

If your position is that we should have let all the banks fail, then you are a god damn fool. You know not what you say.

And if you don't think the auto manufacturers are important, then I can't help you. Hell, the GOP would agree with you. They sent all the manufacturing out of the country, and you see what that has done to our economy.

Now you want to deliver the death blow?

Not on the Dems watch.

None of the details revealed by Lewis' testimony to Cuomo's office--all substantive matters that would have been of keen importance to shareholders of Merrill Lynch and Bank of America--were ever made public before the deal went through on Dec. 31. That is a shocking violation of the requirement to inform shareholders of any material matters that could impact their vote or holding of shares in either company. This nondisclosure of market sensitive information means all the trading between Dec. 15 and April 22--tens of millions of shares of the largest U.S. bank--was executed on the basis of withheld information. This is a shocking violation of 75 years of securities regulation.

Incredibly, the SEC was never informed of any of this: that Merrill was about to report a huge $15 billion loss, that Lewis wanted to kill the deal, that Paulson told Lewis that Bernanke had instructed him to fire Lewis and dismantle his entire board if he refused to go through with the merger. It's not exactly clear what authority Paulson and Bernanke were going to use to replace Lewis and his board--powers they might assume in a pending systemic breakdown?

"Notably, during Bank of America's important communications with federal banking officials in late December 2008, the lone federal agency charged with protecting investor interests, the Securities and Exchange Commission, appears to have been kept in the dark," states Cuomo's letter to congressional leaders. "Indeed, Secretary Paulson informed this office that he did not keep the SEC chairman in the loop during the discussions and negotiations with Bank of America in December 2008." In other words, Paulson's disdain for SEC Chairman Christopher Cox meant that the Treasury was operating in an autonomous, somewhat high-handed fashion.

BUSTED!!!!!

Lies, Threats, Deal: Paulson, Bernanke, Lewis - Forbes.com

Yes, highly illegal and charges can be brough.

oh.....then you fully support obama being charged with removing the CEO of GM....

Why? Did Obama tell the CEO of GM to do something or else?

Seems more to me like Obama just fired him.

why did you ask me if obama told the CEO to something and then tell me that he fired him....

so let me get this right, you told me that removing a CEO is highly illegal and charges should be brought....obama you say outright fires a CEO and that is legal...

Look idiot, I have been kind to you so far, but you are really over the top.
I mean what I said...there is no company too big to fail. I don't care of the size. Like I said before....They could have bankruptcy protection...which by the way you didn't even aknowledge.
Not all banks would fail...you seem to like to catagorize them all as failures. Once again, they could have bankruptcy protection. Some will fail, as well they should...but from that new banks will start and take up the cause.
Bobo, you act like this is kind of new. From 1986-1990, 1,503 banks failed. It's happened all along, and will do so in the future. This is nothing new to our country. It's just now that our government is trying to overstep itself as a government that is hell bent on nationalizing our country. It's doing this by creating a scare tactic, which you have fallen for bigtime. But, I expect no less from you.
check out the link below, and you might be educated...but, probably not.

That's what happens under Bankruptcy proceedures. They restructure everything right down to union contracts. What the hell....you have to be a card carrying socialist bobo. Like I said, these auto companies have taken all that money, and are still expected to file bankruptcy. Get that through your blockhead. Were you born this stupid, or did you get hit with a stupid stick? bobo. sometimes life isn't fair, and people have to get hurt. They will rebound again, as they always do without interference from big government. Businesses learn from their mistakes through bankruptcies, and come out stronger, or they fail. But, if you don't go through the process, and are bailed out by our government, they learn nothing, and the mistakes continue. Bobo...GROW UP

 

[sealybobo]

How come Paulson & Bernaeke lying only made the news one day but the Pelosi story has lasted weeks. Liberal media my ass.

 

[RodISHI]

Actually, this is a good thread Bobo, I'm surprised that you posted it. This did impress me. We will be seeing a lot more of this coming from our government as it grows and starts nationalizing businesses. Strong arming, from our government is shameful, and not really what our Founding Fathers had in mind when they set up this great nation. The writing is on the wall, but I wonder if anyone is reading it?

Not very many. It will also be a police state. In time they will have robots that do their bidding for them. I know that sounds far fetched but it is already underway in this progressive new society that people will live in.

For those of us who deny access to becoming a socialized entity or joined to a corporation. We do not have equal protection under the law right now today. It has already happened and is continueing to happen as you see eminent domain take place while peoples properties are taken over for the so called "good of the community" a few more will become aware of what is transpiring. Some would want that information in a conspiracy section as to play it off as untrue. Yet the proof is in the paperwork of these legal cases.
