I'm beginning to feel like Angelina Jolie's character in CHANGELING, where I am beginning to worry

[Mike 03]

that I'm not sane.

What am I missing?

In my entire life, I've never been happier to have a person be my President, and I trust the people he has appointed to important posts.

I don't feel that Obama is even being given a fair chance.

Look at the catastrophe he inherited from Bush. Please. It took us more than a decade to get to this point.

Why are so many people expecting that President Obama can get us out of a ten year disaster in two or three months?

Also, please go back and watch the Senate and Congressional Finance Committee hearings from last week and draw your own conclusions about who knew what and when.

It wasn't Geithner who is to blame.

When Liddy releases his list of how his staff informed all of the congress about the bonuses way back in December, we'll know a hell of a lot more.

Geithner knew about the bonuses two weeks ago.

1. Thank you.

I feel the same as you.

[NOW tense]

2. I don't think you are insane.

of course this is me talking.

3. They never supported him in the first place - they merely claimed to.

5. even I knew about the bonuses in december

what i DID NOT know was the amount going to the guys in the division that fucked up...

4. Mike the last eight years did not happen. It was all a dream,

it is Tuesday, now take your meds and go Baku to sleep.

[lunatica]

6. I think many are fearful that Obama is fooling us with an act

It took a long time to realize that that innocuous, bumbling, smirky, aw-shucks cowboy clown in the White House was really there to destroy not one country, but almost the entire world in the power grab to end all power grabs. After the rape it takes a long time to trust anyone. It's about trust which has been violated badly.

7. I doubt you are insane but

your perspective is a little off.

Today's Gallup tracking poll has Pres. Obama's approval at 64%.

Not only are the American people giving him a chance, I have every expectation he will prevail.

[marketcrazy1]

9. was`nt it 67 percent last week

????

[Jane Austin]

12. You funny. .. . . . . . n/t

[Marie26]

8. He says he knew the "full extent" two weeks ago

"Full extent" - important weasel words, which Geithner repeated often.

10. If you think you're that hot, who cares if you're crazy?

If you want a real trip into the Twilight Zone, I'll introduce you to my family.

Sometimes, you've just got to let it go.

11. Actually, you are in denial. Obama's economic team and their philosophy BROUGHT US THIS MESS

and they did it intentionally. They pushed for no regulations. They pushed for risky derivatives.

And now that it's imploded, just the way they knew it eventually would, their prime concern is making sure that the investor class is kept afloat in their mansions and the rigged system stays that way.

We need to have people held accountable and put in jail. The way it pretty much didn't with Silverado, BCCI and Enron except for a scapegoat or two.
