I SEE A PEACEFUL UPRISING ON THE HORIZON - HOW ABOUT YOU?   January 23rd, 2009 - 7:59 pm

HAMAS GOT IT RIGHT ABOUT CHANGE, HOW ABOUT “REAL AMERICANS” GETTING IT RIGHT AND MARCH TO WASHINGTON FOR A PEACEFUL CHAT WITH THE BIGWIGS?

Great song! Made me smile, which doesn’t happen too often now that my 401K is a 1K! Thanks to Barney Frank, Chris Dodd and all the democrats who strong armed banks into lending people money who had no way of paying it back and insisting on NO REGULATIONS! They’re why the economy tanked!

2010 can’t come fast enough! LET’S VOTE THE CROOKS OUT!

By the way – how are the investigations coming along for Jefferson, Rangel and David Kernell, son of Tennessee State Senator Mike Kernell (hacked into Palin’s email)? Do the Democrats care about justice when it’s one of their own?

AMERICA…YOUR VOICE IS BEING HEARD…PLEASE KEEP IT UP…KEEP EMAILING…KEEP CALLING…GET YOUR VOICE HEARD…YOU ARE WHAT IS GOING TO MAKE THE DIFFERENCE AND STOP THE MADNESS!

CALL YOUR SENATORS AND TELL THEM “NO” ON GEITHNER TODAY!

THIS MAN WILL OVERSEE TARP IF HE GETS THE NOMINATION – IT CAN’T HAPPEN!
=======================================

Statement by U.S. Senator Chuck Grassley of Iowa
Ranking Member of the Committee on Finance
Nomination of Timothy F. Geithner to be Secretary of the Treasury
Thursday, January 22, 2009

During yesterday’s confirmation hearing, Mr. Geithner gave answers to committee
member questions about his tax compliance problems. The nominee’s answers to the committee and during the vetting process give me pause. The explanations for irregularities have ranged from statements that he should have known, to proclamations that if only his accountants had warned him he would have done the right thing.

I received a message yesterday from a constituent in Dubuque expressing concern about this nomination.

The constituent wrote, “If the man cannot handle his own finances, how is he going to handle the country’s?”

The Senate may vote to confirm the nomination of Mr. Geithner. If so, I will work with
him to do what needs to be done for economic recovery, including the areas of tax and fiscal policy and new markets through international trade. I will also work to fulfill my obligations as a United States Senator in our system of checks and balances.

That said, I cannot vote to confirm the nomination based on the record and the need to foster greater accountability in both big government and our financial institutions.

=============================

WE ARE THE NECK THAT TURNS THE HEAD – LET’S START TWISTING!

as a mexican american i believe TARP is a weak start to helping people get jobs. Like throwing food at carp at the zoo everyone will wants some and the only thing that will come out will be the excrement post engorgement. Are people going to want to work even if their jobs available? creating 3 million jobs for who, those who are working now dont need them and those who arnt working wont give up their government checks to find employment.”Caga palo” the new post election Obama chant. Like a deer in front of dim headlights it may see the light but its not bright enough to move out of the way. An accident will happen its only a matter of time

spick and spanning - your on the money brother!   January 24th, 2009 - 12:55 am

I appreciate your perspective and I believe it to be all too true.

America…don’t forget the vote for Geithner on Monday.

Your voice does make a difference.

See my earlier comments on how Senator Grassley spoke of a call from one of his constituents (one of thousands I would suppose because he is going to vote “no” on Geithner) and what was said.

We need your voice…call…email…YOUR Senators and tell them “no” on Geithner!

This man is unqualified to oversee “TARP”!

You matter and this matters…get involved or we’ll pay the price.
