There may be a bit of a silver lining to the economic mess we are in.
In addition to exposing Wall Street frauds and con artists, *the attention

Just saw a investigative report on CNN. *The reported was digging into a
credit card reform bill that has been languishing in Congress for almost 3
years. * The proposed bill (now being or has been passed) *prevents credit
card issuers from doing things like raising interest rates on previous
balances and requires a 45 day notice to give the holder an opportunity to
shop for other card providers.
But, this bill has been sitting in Congress for years. *When Chris Dodd, the
Chairman of the Senate Banking Committee was asked why no action had been
taken until now, his comment was "We've tried but have met with strong
resistance from the banks who issue the cards."
Sun light is a bitch.


Now, what the *hell* does *that* mean? * The bank is holding Congress
hostage? *What a wimpy answer.
It all gets back to campaign contributions.-


Which gets back to just where did BO get his money from? *It sure
wasn't the newly empowered minority and college student voters. *They
have no money to give.


He owes someone bigtime.


50% of his donations, $500 million, are alleged to have come from
donations less than or equal to $200.

I remember hearing about a guy named Good Will donating something like
$27,000. And Good Will lives at the same address as a Goodwill
Industries thrift shop.- Hide quoted text -

"Good Will", Santa Clause, No 1 u No, are mostly George Soros and
similar criminal enterprises... Like I said, as to the "small"
donations or so called "grass roots" donations were no more than any
other recent election cycle, the MSM "quoted" the numbers in the
context of some "record" donations, but they weren't..
