Wrong People Arrested on Wall Street
October 14, 2011 Wrong People Arrested on Wall Street Goldman Boss: ‘Thought They Were Finally Coming for Us’ By Andy Borowitz NEW YORK (The Borowitz Report) - Millions of Americans cheered the news on Friday that arrests had finally been made on Wall Street, but were soon disappointed to learn that the wrong people had been taken into custody. “I was like, finally they’re going to get those *******s,” said Tracy Klugian, 27, of Queens, New York, whose hopes were raised by an “Arrests on Wall Street” graphic he saw on CNN. “I guess it was too good to be true.” NYPD spokesman Frank Hannefy explained the controversial decision to arrest Occupy Wall Street protesters while leaving the people who had brought the nation’s economy to the brink of Armageddon unmolested. “As far as soulless individuals pillaging the country for their personal gain, that’s none of our business,” he said. “But we’ll be damned if we’re going to let people march on newly seeded grass.” At banking giant Goldman Sachs, chairman Lloyd Blankfein admitted that when he heard police sirens outside his building, “I was sure they were finally coming for us.” The Goldman chief said he started running up and down the halls “screaming at people to feed the document shredder like Chris Christie at a pie-eating contest.” Mr. Blankfein said that he felt “palpable relief” when he realized that the police had come to arrest the protesters and were leaving the bankers at large. “That was a close one,” he said, chuckling. “We’re all going to have a good laugh about this over the weekend in the Caymans.” Elsewhere, Texas Governor Rick Perry announced what he called his "1-1-1" plan: "Every American gets 1 percent tax, 1 mandatory vaccination, and 1 execution." |
Obama is a racist dog...
Yes, I said it: Obama is a racist. As the white, conservative mother
of black/Mexican/white children, I know a racist when I hear one. So is his buddy, Henry Louis Gates. Don't let these two Ivy League- educated, erudite, distinguished black men convince you that only whites can be racists. Believe me, these two men are the worst kind of racists: black and elitist. According to the Oxford English Dictionary, a racist is someone who believes "all members of each racial group possess characteristics or abilities specific to that race, especially to distinguish it as being either superior or inferior to another racial group or racial groups." When Sgt. Crowley investigated a possible burglary at Prof. Gates' Cambridge home this week, Gates met a white cop at his door and evidently assumed Crowley was a bad cop, a rogue, a racist cop who would treat him differently than any other suspected perp, just because he was black. That's racism, folks! What did Gates do when faced with a police officer investigating a burglary in his home? Was Gates polite and courteous to the cop? Did he cooperate and step onto the porch out of the darkened home so Crowley could see his face and ID? Did he calmly explain why a passerby saw him breaking in, if, in fact, it was his own house? Did he speak or act like the esteemed scholar and professor his ID claimed him to be? Nope. He was belligerent, accusatory, uncooperative, irrational and defamatory, throwing racial slurs at the white officer, even insulting the cop's mother (as in, "Yo momma is so..."). If ever a man did NOT act with Harvard professorial dignity and decorum, if ever a black man acted like a thug from the ‘hood, Gates did. Is it any wonder Officer Crowley asked for more ID, one that actually listed that house as his address, or asked for another person to corroborate Gates' identity? I would, wouldn't you? And when Gates refused, and became so incensed and insulting to the Sergeant who was there to protect his property that a crowd grew around his house, was Crowley supposed to allow this kind of behavior, just because Gates was black? No. He arrested Gates for disorderly conduct, as he was trained to do. Last time I checked, police arrest people regardless of race when they act like crazy people in the presence of peace officers. So why is President Obama a racist? Because he, like his friend Gates, automatically assumed the white police officer "acted stupidly." BO assumed it was the white officer's fault, because, of course, we all know white cops are racist, right? And later, when he slightly retracted his statement, he still felt the need to say, "It would have been better if cooler heads had prevailed." By now he knew the facts, that his friend Gates had lost his mind and acted like a fool, but he assumed that Sgt. Crowley similarly lost it and "got all up" in Gates' face, because, of course, that's what all white cops do. But this white cop didn't, because he's not just any cop, he is an expert at managing racial incidents just like this one became, because of Gates' racism. Friends and fellow officers of all races say Sgt. James Crowley is calm and reliable in situations racially hostile situs, because he was hand-picked by a black police commissioner to teach recruits how to avoid racial profiling, and Crowley has apparently been doing a stellar job at it for 5 years. But Gates and our esteemed president didn't know that, did they? So, who are the racists in this story? Gates accused a decent, decorated, above-reproach police officer of being a racist rogue cop, just because he was white. What did our esteemed "black" president do? He immediately took Gates' side, because he's a friend and black! Um, Mr. President, I thought you were going to help erase the racial lines that divide us? Shame on you for taking sides on something you admitted you knew nothing about, for commenting nationally on a small, local issue well beneath your pay grade, and for showing us all that you are not that different that the racist Gates who believes all white cops are bad cops, just because of their skin color. Mr. President, you are a racist. Shame on you. |

Too much "black" pandering, too much persecution of the "rich" and businesses, ignoring that he is supposed to represent "We the People...". Funny how Obama is black, has purported knowledge of the slavery of blacks. Yet is so eager for just more debt to enslave his kids with debt-tax slavery in their futures. Not only is he racist, he is irrational and has no integrity. Just a pandering liberal loser with a big mouth. -- Eat the rich, screw the companies and wonder why there are no jobs. But we have big huge government we can't afford... -- Obama and the lefty fleabagger attitude |

Nearly all the pols are bought, so will turn against them with a vengeance. For example, 3 new free trade bills just passed Congress a few days ago. Those trade bills will cost the U.S. hundreds of thousands of jobs. Who lobbied most for these bills? Citibank, big pharma, and big agriculture. Wall Street. Who voted for the bills? Democrats and Republicans. The so-called "socialist" President, Obama, will sign them into law. So we'll soon have Hyundais and other Korean products for sale here that are produced by North Korean slave labor of Kim Jong-il. Panama, a premier tax shelter haven, will be able to tax shelter more U.S. corporations and other wealth with added treaty protections. The system is broken. Here's what's going to happen in the not distant future. As joblessness, despair for a decent future, and wealth disparity become even more pronounced, the protests will grow. There will be violence. Blood will flow. Heads will be put on pikes. It's going to get very nasty. EVERYBODY in the U.S. is covered by the 2nd Amendment. Firebombs are easy to construct. Most people will have to take a side, if they can't just lay low and keeps their mouths shut. All those rich fat cats should give a large percent of their money to Obama so he can give it to the protestors. Amen. |

Government is like a snake eating its own tail. But fleabagger s worship the very cause of their grief. Insanely stupid.

People are conditioned to vote for a party starting grade one. G12 brainwashes Democrats and Republicans are the only choices. So the corrupt can influence government by supporting their man on the inside, 1/2 the corrupt work the democrats, the other half the republicans. It is why the house always wins and the people always loose. Can't even recall Obama, he is a 4 year term dictator. -- Eat the rich, screw the companies and wonder why there are no jobs.

Give 'em all their pink slips. Eisboch Agreed. Because in reality the problem is government and why government can't fix the problem. Government is the problem, too much fraud money print and toxic to business crap. But like pre-WW II Germany, blame the rich and companies, even confiscate a few like GM. Driven by envy, greed and the "national socialist" party, later known as Adolph and the Nazi. Fact is rich would love to invest, but that doesn't mean loose money to lethargic entitled lazy workers and tax greedy civic/state/fed government sin a depreciating economy. Be like workers going to work for no profit/pay or to loose money. Fact is unscrupulous evil politicians are using it as a scape goat, blame deflection from the real causes. After all the real cause sits right in the Whitehouse. A bully, pushing on others to blame deflect his inadequacies. A common trait of dads abandoning their kids is the bull mentality, and 0bama has it. Fact is 0bama is now a real problem for the survival of the USA. He can't be allowed to continue, the economical, social and political damage 0bama has done is not good at all. USA might have a bigger WW II armed forces than the other top 25 nations combined including Russia and China, but the economic underbelly is about to fall out. -- Eat the rich, screw the companies and wonder why there are no jobs.

Last I looked, 49% were more like Tea Party types, but media likes to sideline this. Best to just call this the rally of the discontent. Surprised we haven't seen more of this so far. Greece is rolling up on US shores. Too much debt, corruption and fraud from DC to stop it now. It is interesting that these "rallies" get more press time than the anti- IMF, WB and other semi-regular events. These might become permanent eye-sores in sympathetic cities. Look at who owns much of Candas media and propaganda machines? Or buys space as a customer? CBC and CTV might as well be government propaganda departments. Doesn't mater be it IMF, Canada bailing out other corrupt entities including African banks and the UN/IMF/NATO US-Euro Bank Regime. We are a managed herd. See the tag line as to governments position. But I suspect the good news is that with so few supporters, not that many are buying the government propaganda of blame the rich. -- Eat the rich, screw the companies and wonder why there are no jobs.

How can we possibly trust a group that votes themselves automatic pay raises every year that only a special vote can prevent.

Here's what's going to happen in the not distant future. As joblessness, despair for a decent future, and wealth disparity become even more pronounced, the protests will grow. There will be violence. Blood will flow. Heads will be put on pikes. It's going to get very nasty. EVERYBODY in the U.S. is covered by the 2nd Amendment. Firebombs are easy to construct. Most people will have to take a side, if they can't just lay low and keeps their mouths shut. You are correct. And really, I don't think all right wingers are so stupid that they don't get it, it's just that they choose to not get it, put blinders on, so to speak, so that they can continue to denigrate the protesters. Yeah, all of them are stupid because they don't wear the same blinders you do... snerk Sorry, unlike you, I see good and bad on both sides of the fence. |

Officially, the talk is "Wall Street or Big Business Greed", yet he and many he interviews concede that Congress is basically bought .... except those Representatives or Senators that he happens to have on his show of course. They just blame someone else or finger Wall Street or Big Business. Blame them for what? For being in compliance with the rules that they, the Congress, are responsible for putting into law? Give 'em all their pink slips. ======= Maybe the answer is term limits so they only have to be concerned about re-election once or twice. The real problem is campaign finance of course. ------------- No question, but as you know that would be harder to pass as a Constitutional Amendment than increasing the debt ceiling or health care reform. The pols argue that it takes them several terms to develop the political clout to "make things happen". How can we possibly trust a group that votes themselves automatic pay raises every year that only a special vote can prevent. How can we possibly trust a group that gets the best health care programs available to anyone on the face of the earth while the people they represent are going broke trying to pay for theirs? How can possibly trust a group that has fat pension plans for life simply because they make promises and deliver nothing? Anyone with a job evaluation report like theirs' in the real world would be canned in a nanosecond. A simpler solution is for voters to invoke De facto term limits by not reelecting them term after term after term. Shake it up and prevent long term deals and alliances to special interests to develop. But everyone hails the politician who brings the pork home. Everyone wants to feed from the trough, no one wants to pay for the feed. Campaign finance and lobbying reform would do the trick but it'd take an act of God for those who've invested so much in the present system to dissolve it. So JPS throws his hands up and casts his vote for status quo. |

Hey, lefty liberal fleabaggers want to discard conservative values of rationality, logic and integrity but bitch when reality smacks them in the face. Reality always wins, even if they are fleabaggers. Fact is those with discipline, drive, self motivations go-getters are going to get ahead and the lazy undisciplined nothing to offer types larders are going to fall behind. The gap is going to get worse as fleabaggers worship and vote for big fat pandering expensive government. Fleabaggers are in denial of the raw fact, government can solve the problem because government is the problem. Fleabaggers are so stupid, they worship what causes their grief. -- Eat the rich, screw the companies and wonder why there are no jobs. But we have big huge government we can't afford... -- Obama and the lefty fleabagger attitude |
