Ben Bernanke on hold. Confirmation Not a Sure Thing. . .

This will be interesting.

“It’s great to see everyone come together – Democrats, Republicans, progressives and libertarians, against this Federal Reserve, which is not federal, and not a reserve, just a group printing money and giving it to their buddies,” the source said.

Cracks are emerging, needless to say…the fact that anyone is even suggesting that opposition to Bernanke MIGHT succeed is a sea change from the view of the matter a mere week ago.

Chelsea Clinton Engaged to Goldman Sachs Investment Banker

I could not pass this up.  Sorry.   The irony is just to much.  Check the last sentence.  

Chelsea’s fiancé is an investment banker who works for Goldman Sachs.


The two met in Washington as teenagers and both attended Stanford University. Mezvinsky, Miller said, is no stranger to life in the public eye. Both of his parents served in Congress, and his father, Ed Mezvinsky, served time in federal prison for bank and wire fraud.

Boxer Cries Foul!!!

Boxer Suggests Leaked E-Mails 

Represent 'Criminal' Hacker Conspiracy

The only foul smelling odor here is Boxer.  This is a classic case of the pot calling the kettle black.  Me thinks thou dost protestist to much.  A little digging into her or her husband's financial dealings is surely in order here.  


A lot of bucks were riding on this Carbon Tax bullshit and now that it is disapearing like sand through their respective grimey fingers,  they are out for revenge or perhaps just trying to save face.   


Sorry but you hitched your wagon to the wrong horse if you want to save face.   These "hackers"  are looked upon more as Robin Hood than criminals and good for them.  If the hackers of the world would use their considerable power for good,  I say great!!!


Again,  I say investigate BARBARA BOXER!   Look into why she would stonewall a look into the emails themselves.     It's kind of like this;  You find one gold coin behind this door but you find a million gold coins behind door number 2.   Yet you still choose door number one.   Somebody needs to ask what  Barbi is up to here.  

Does this look like the face of an honest woman? Hey, I'm just asking here. That's still legal isn't it?





Bottom line here is this;  if I am reading this right.   Pulling a hoax, perhaps the largest hoax the world has ever known,  with conspirators in government,  business, perhaps even NASA, and the scientific community,   liars everywhere,  Al (I invented the internet that bit me in the ass) Gore set to reap billions (yes it was really going to be billions folks),  and all Babs is interested in are the evil hackers who exposed the conspiracy.    Hmmmmm? 

Did I mention someone should look at here finances?

Rep. Issa Questions Plan to Pay Government Workers for Government Property

FOXNews.com
A top House Republican is taking a hard look at a program in the Bureau of Engraving and Printing that would give hundreds of senior employees $75 gift cards in exchange for their printers, which the government already owns.

First of all. . .WTF !?!!!   Ok. . .Ok. . . Ok. . . So, your saying that a government bureaucrat came up with the brain twister of an idea to pay employees $75 of your and my bucks (about $40,000 total) so they would give up the printer that YOU AND I BOUGHT in the first place. Oh and this is a real brain warper, these computer printers have not been stolen or mis-placed. . . they are sitting on the employees desk.

So, in other words, this toad wants to pay these employees to simply relinquish the printer and use a network printer instead.

OMG!!! Are you freakin' kidding me?!??

How about this, A memorandum that states “All employees will now turn in the printer on their desk and use a network printer. How about that! I bet that would cost less than $40,000 bucks.

Here, this is the kicker, this clown came up with this incredibly bright idea because he wanted to save money. These are the people we have in charge. 

“Angry employees at the Bureau of Engraving and Printing say the cash-strapped agency is giving taxpayer money to government employees to return government printers.  At least 534 mostly senior bureau employees have individual printers to ensure that sensitive documents -- related mostly to personnel issues -- don't end up in the wrong hands. But now the agency wants them back and plans to give employees a $75 gift card to turn them over.”

Maybe when you print money all day, it becomes easier to spend.

In his letter to Director Larry Felix, Congressman Issa writes "I'm going to need your assistance in helping me understand why your agency needs to spend in excess of $40,000 to recover its own property,"

Oh, Did I already mention that the government already owns these printers?

The Washington Post reported that the bureau created the incentive program because it wanted to cut down on printer use to save money.
The article said at least 534 employees have individual printers. The gift cards were offered as a way to induce those who might otherwise be possessive about the printers to give them up and use a network printer.
But Issa questioned the logic in that.
Bureau spokeswoman Claudia Dickens told FoxNews.com that the bureau would respond to Issa but offered no explanation for the incentive program.
"We are researching it and preparing a response," she said. "I can't say anything about it at this point."

Researching??? What??? What research. What is the deal. You either did this or you did not. What is the freaking deal here!
