**********************************************

A Spliced Video From 5 CNBC Appearances from 2005-07 Where Bernanke Demonstrates That He Knows Absolutely Nothing.  This One Is So Good We Need It To Go Viral.

Please send it to your reps in Congress and to the White House.  That's how HR 1207 got so many co-sponsors, as voters were emailing the Grayson-Coleman video to their Congressperson directly.  Washington contact info for everyone and everything is here.

If we can get a million voters to see the clip, and from that group, 100,000 or so to actually email the video to someone in Washington, we might just be able to make enough noise to send B-52 back to Princeton.  At a minimum we will make his life miserable and cause him extreme distress as this video passes through a million households and his utter lack of competence is seen by so many.  If nothing else, think of it as a few minutes of your time for karmic revenge.  Thank you!

  • There is no excuse or precedent for the Chairman of the Federal Reserve to misunderstand, miscalculate and misrepresent the greatest debt bubble of the last 200 years so tragically.  Thousands saw it coming, but Greenspan & Bernanke were completely and utterly disconnected from reality.
  • Bernanke actually said that lending standards were circumspect and safe, or something to that effect, and that regulators were closely monitoring the quality of loans made by banks. I will pause while you get off the floor from laughing.
  • Every time he opens his mouth in this clip, he's not just wrong, but insufferably so.  His credibility is non-existent.
  • Chairman Bernanke, there is no excuse.  Admit your failure.  We the people ask for demand your resignation.

Why not create some trouble for Bernanke.

I think it's safe to say his incompetence has created substantial trouble for taxpayers. Time to turn the tables and make his life miserable with a campaign to prevent his reappointment.

True, Gentle Ben SUCKS LARGE, but what if we get that insolent pig SUMMERS as fed chairman? Talk about going from bad to worse. A fellow patriot/blogger recommended Alan Blinder, but I think Obama is in love with SUMMERS, the gender-bigoted derivative destroyer of the Harvard endowment (who was basically ousted from Harvard in an unprecedented vote of no confidence). SUMMERS, the cheif engineer of the Russian public-private scandal who paid millions to settle a federal lawsuit charging fraud and bribery. SUMMERS, the sleepy one day a week quant fruitbag who made 5.2 million last year at D. E. SHAW & Co hedge fund. SUMMERS, the highest paid guest "speaker" at $135,000 for a single appearance at Goldman Sachs, and who made 2.77 million over 40 speaking engagements to the financial sector. SUMMERS the most egregious case of conflict of interest and collusion with Wall Street to ever walk the halls of Capitol Hill.
That's who's in the running for the post.

This problem is not about an individual, though tar and feathers for the individuals would be fun and just. The problem is systemic.

There are only 2 solutions: Ending the Fed and Fractional Reserve Banking, or a Volker type fed chair who is willing to make everyone miserable for 10 years with 15% interest rates to save the dollar.

I'm personally saving all of my Federal Reserve notes and T-bills to burn for warmth in the next 10 years. I may also save another pile of bills to eat, as the fiber in the paper will undoubtedly be more than I could exchange the paper for.

Chris Matthews is going to take over for Robert Gibbs as Obama's press secretary.

What do you think, is that a good idea?

My impression is that he sees his role as the paternalistic cheerleader - protecting us from a truth we couldn't understand or handle. In each snippet was that generic, political speak - translation - don't worry, be happy and keep on spending.

Daily Bail, We are with you--can't you hear the faint tippy-tapping of our keyboards?

I visited an old place of employment this week--a manufacturer of automation components. Since December '08 they reduced people's hours to 6 from 7 1/2, and pay by 20%. People are hurting, and it infuriates me to see that soft headed little weasel in his finely tailored pretty suit recite those evil selfish lies. Now wait until the inflation hits.

I am more convinced than ever that this den of thieves is the command central for most of our problems. I intend to refocus my efforts on helping inform people--look at what happened with Ron Paul and his 'audit the Fed' bill: he got 276 CO-SIGNERS when he was expecting a handful! All we have to do is spread the info--the outrage grows spontaneously from that.

Any other 'news' out there is a distraction, either planned or utilized happily by our rulers to try and lead us off track. Well, it isn't going to work on me anymore.

In watching these clips it also reminds me how much of a tool that Steve Liesman - the so called Sr Economics Reporter - is! He is always spouting the company line and laps up this kind of misinformation like the lap dog that he is. None of the CNBC hosts are ever critical they are merely cheerleaders for the Investment Banks, Federal Reserve, et al. Lastly I despise morons like Mark Haines who has the audacity to make fun of and discredit pundits like Peter Schiff who are 1,000 more knowledgeable than anyone employed by CNBC. CNBC is a complete waste of time.

The Great American Bank Robbery



(From UCLA's Hammer Forum) -- William K. Black, the former litigation director of the Federal Home Loan Bank Board who investigated the Savings and Loan disaster of the 1980s, discusses the latest scandal in which a single bank, IndyMac, lost more money than was lost during the entire Savings and Loan crisis. He will examine the political failure behind this economic disaster, in which not only massive fraud has taken place, but a vast transfer of wealth from the poor and middle class continues as the federal government bails out the seemingly reckless, if not the criminal. Black teaches economics and law at the University of Missouri, Kansas City and is the author of The Best Way to Rob a Bank Is to Own One. (Run Time: 1 hour, 38 min.)

I like the site, but have to disagree with the claim that "Adjusted for inflation, house prices fell dramatically nationwide during the 1970s" -- I made enough money to retire by buying houses during that period -- but you can check a more authoritative source: http://mysite.verizon.net/vzeqrguz/housingbubble/ -- or for a look back over more than a century see: http://mysite.verizon.net/vzeqrguz/housingbubble/united_states_1890-2008.png

Those who are interested in what really happened should know that virtually everyone in the system, from the poorest home owner to the head of AIG and the Fed felt that housing prices could not decline substantially over the whole country at the same time -- steady inflation seemed to guarantee that prices would increase, as they had for about 70 years. By borrowing money, the buyer got the inflation profit. When prices go up 10% that can be double the amount of the down payment. Almost no one saw that the interest rate fluctuations by the Fed would so distort the market as to cause a bubble that was not visible in the Consumer Price Index (it largely ignores home prices) and then a crash.

If you are convinced that this was all a scheme by calculating crooks, you may wish to ignore the facts. On the other hand, the fact is that it does appear some calculating crooks (aided by some fools in D.C.) found a way to protect themselves at the expense of the rest of us.

I stand corrected on the housing price data for the 70s.

You have an interesting resume...

Great point K. Jacobs, and one that we make often here...

Millions of Americans have seen this coming for nearly a decade...and these folks made the smart decision to rent...never bought into the bubble...and now they have to pay for others who did...

It's pretty disgusting.

Why was he still the Fed chief? When do any of our official take responsibility for their actions? Where is the accountability? If a private institution had a CEO who made completely errorous judgements, if we forced out the CEOs of GM & Chrysler as a condition of bailing out their past mistakes in judgement, why isn't this guy out?
