This man,

Gramm, whose extensive ties to Enron proved problematic during the firm's implosion several years ago, was serving as a lobbyist for the international banking and subprime mortgage giant UBS until April. As Mother Jones documented, Gramm played a key role in the subprime meltdown during his time in the Senate.


Is John McCains economic advisor, and will probably be his Sec of Treasury if elected!



Do you really think McCain who swore off lobbyist and who claims the high ground of conducting a "respectful" campaign would actually make Gramm his Sec of Treasury? :wink:
ALL I know for sure is that lobbyist are not working for nothing and they're not working in our interest. How many Federal lobbyist does McCain have working in his campaign. Isn't it like 59?

"Gramm who called Americans "a Nation of Whiners") was a lobbyist for a foreign bank during the same time he served as an advisor to John McCain. He also had a hand in the mortgage meltdown, and crafted McCain's response to the mortgage crisis: screwing borrowers to save lenders."


Its all mental.......
Its in your mind....
Watch Fox and repeat after me.

Gas is not $4.00 a gal.
Jobs have not disappeared.
Food, ahhh food is cheap!
Fanny mae and Freddie Mac are not $11 billion dollars in the hole.

I think McConfused might be a better description than McSame, he really is different than Bush....Really he is. laugh I feel for him, embarassed he needs to be napping, not flipflopping around like a whale out of water.

He was truly transformed when he gave Bush that big ole hug at the revival I mean the republican convention. devil He wants to give us the CHANGE WE DESERVE, that could be a sign that the slogan he tried to imitate came from an anti-depressant ad. Whoa! We will all need them anti-depressants if he is elected, but what does that matter to the rich who run this once great country of ours? sad

Yes, we would want a cranky President McSame to take a LOT of naps!

Less likely he'd, oh, send some ICBMs to Russia, North Korea or bomb, bomb, bomb, bomb, bomb Iran!

Getting better by the minute...

"LOS ANGELES - IndyMac Bank's assets were seized by federal regulators on Friday after the mortgage lender succumbed to the pressures of tighter credit, tumbling home prices and rising foreclosures.
ADVERTISEMENT

The bank is the largest regulated thrift to fail and the second largest financial institution to close in U.S. history, regulators said.

The Office of Thrift Supervision said it transferred IndyMac's operations to the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation because it did not think the lender could meet its depositors' demands.

IndyMac customers with funds in the bank were limited to taking out money via automated teller machines over the weekend, debit card transactions or checks, regulators said.

Other bank services, such as online banking and phone banking were scheduled to be made available on Monday.

"This institution failed today due to a liquidity crisis," OTS Director John Reich said."

Wall St.'s Foundations Shaking - Steven Pearlstein, Washington Post

"You know something's up when both the secretary of the Treasury and the chairman of the Federal Reserve give speeches calling for a new mechanism to allow them to manage the orderly liquidation of a major financial institution.

You have a sense that things are getting desperate when General Motors has to offer six-year loans at zero-percent interest to unload its gas-guzzling trucks and SUVs, and people openly speculate about how long it will be before the automaker runs out of cash.

And you can feel the foundation shaking under Wall Street when Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac have to pay three-quarters of a percentage point more to borrow money than the U.S. Treasury, which implicitly guarantees their debt, and top government officials feel compelled to reaffirm their support."
