EXPOSED: 'Crash The Tea Party' Infiltration Effort
Considering our previous story, I reserve equal anger for these bastards.
Check out the Keith Olbermann ass-kiss the founder has on his twitter page.
Feel free to trash this tool's Twitter account.

I understand YOU to be more or less in agreement with the original intentions & motives of the ORIGINAL Tea Partyers, comprised mostly (back then at least) by those who wished mainly a return to constitutional rule of law and lesser government. MINIMAL government, in fact. (and PLEASE do correct me if I'm wrong)
In that vein, I'd like to ask you; how many of the regulars here would you say belong to that SAME school of thought vs the "Latter-Day" Partyers?
By "latter day partyers" I mean that largely geriatric movement, ideologically confused to the point of incoherency, and based on anger, ignorance and fear?
wee stand at attention when you get someone upset .I would say it does .Better watch it you will go Blind.
Oh well i am sure you impress yourself witch is good that keeps you away from real trouble like yelling
at old ladies.
i have been following the goldman, sec, abacus story as well as the reform trail....
i will begin posting as usual tonight...i have not read any comments or emails since last week...i will get to everything...
again, my apologies and i hope everyone is well...

Some want the truth out in the open, others want to help hide the truth like Huffington.

this was funny...
i know i've said this before...but simply to remove confusion, RLR is NOT the same commenter as AB...it might be nice if that accusation stopped so that at least one point of contention might be eliminated...
their IP addresses are from different states...

mark and james h...give me a link to the tea party pitchfork group...thanks...
Silly string, notwithstanding, I was/am serious about this. Even just having a web presence will give us legitimacy to speak AS Tea Party-ers on whatever occasion might come up. It's a brand name that's out there and well-known. Most MSM morons don't realize that there are thousands of bank bailout aficionados out there, just itchin' to crack some banskter heads. Being a Tea Party group might help us get the message out.
Seriously, if push comes to shove, maybe I'll just start drafting Daily Bailers and making them part of the group ;-)
-------------
correct...i wasn't aware that anyone had accused JTS...
Nah, we can still do silly string. Esp. if Mr. Funny Money is going to be around. But what are you getting at about the "coherent agenda"? It's the Daily Bail agenda, which is the Tea Party agenda (ostensibly), PLUS actual knowledge about banking and finance, MINUS racism, Bush/Palin worship, torture, etc. Seems pretty simple to me. Again, you should check out some of the smaller tea party groups like Bowling Green, KY or Burlington, VT. They're pretty much focused on fiscal responsibility, small govt. and freedom.
What I meant was, "What is the most important thing? What needs to happen first?"
Suggestions:
Bernanke - Gone?
Geithner - Gone?
End Fannie, Freddie?
Debt ceiling cap?
re-instate Glass-Steagall?
Pull the FDIC backstop from GE?
Break up AIG & Citi?
Baby steps. Rather than be generally pissed-off, select achieveable goals, make demands on incumbents, and vote out anyone who fails to comply. What was great about the anti-Bernanke campaign we ran around here is we got a nice list of Senators who are NOT on our side.
I'm not that interested in ideology.
Here's a thought (I've been meaning to write about this). Elizabeth Coleman, the cross-addicted Inspector General for the Federal Reserve System, who slurred her way through an examination by Alan Grayson last year, proving beyond any doubt that she doesn't know her ass from her elbow. She still has her job, James. Let's get her fired. And let's document how long it took each and every member of congress to respond to that demand and what their official response was. We'll find out who wants to keep their job real fast.
If we could get that sack of shit fired; as small an achievment as that is, we will have accomplished more than all the other "tea party" factions combined thusfar. That's the kind of stuff I want to be part of and that's what I meant by "coherent agenda."
Then we silly-string her ass.

I've noticed that "no handouts" and "no free lunch" are recurrent themes of the so-called tea-partiers. Cool. But I never hear them complaining very loud about the government's MASSIVE intervention in the mortgage market, which keeps their house prices from truly cratering. A 1% increase in interest rate equals about an 11% increase in monthly payment. Considering that the government is responsible for 95% of all new mortgages and rates are being artificially held more than 3 points below historic norms - that's one hell of a free lunch!
I wonder how many of those sign-toting ideologues (who are actually welfare cases themselves) would pay off mortgages that would net them hundreds of thousands in losses?

Here's something I want to know. When Geithner made those guarantees, all Fannie and Freddie debt should have been added to the national debt. Does anyone know if they have been?
Shouldn't adding that debt have required and immediate and massive raising of the debt ceiling?
I've poked around a little, but can't find a straight answer as to how the government is treating the Fannie/Freddie debt. Does anyone know?......Bueller.....
------
they haven't been added to the totals...and they won't be under obankster...probably won't be added under any president...i have an overall rss alert for fannie & freddie and debt & deficit stories and there has been nothing...they remain off-balance sheet entities...
-------------
great agenda mark..i think along the same lines...concrete, positive steps that are potentially achievable...several nights in the past year while trying to fall asleep, i've thought of ways to organize and rid ourselves of liz coleman...so i enjoyed your comment...we can accomplish goals of this sort...i liked your list...
Bernanke - Gone?...no comment...
Geithner - Gone?...he will leave after the fall elctions...probaly head to goldman...
End Fannie, Freddie?...yes, please....
Debt ceiling cap?...keeps going higher...
re-instate Glass-Steagall?...no f*cking way that will happen even though i agree with you...
Pull the FDIC backstop from GE?...that would be a fun campaign to wage...fox and cnn biz news would cover any movement against cnbc/ge...i have a contact at fox whose goal in life is to urinate on cnbc...
Break up AIG & Citi?...sing me up but out of our league...
----------
organization is the way to go...trying to work with blodget, barry rithotz, yves smith, mish, calculated risk, zero hedge and others to push an achievable agenda seems to me to be the best course of action in a general sense...
everyone except blodget might be willing to take a stand and demand that liz coleman be fired for example...
As far as I understand it, their losses are off-budget and their total potential obligations are off-balance sheet. Their a massive SIV in essence. I guess that makes Geithner CEO of Citi after all.
---------
i think we need to figure out a way to limit future liabilities...we're stuck with what they own now...but instead of pressuring both to purchase/originate more mortgages of dubious quality, they should be would down and then shut down...in an appropriate timeline...
I'm not really sure what I mean. There's going to be losses and liabilities. If you're credit was maxed, you wouldn't be allowed to co-sign a loan for somebody else. Shouldn't some portion of those liabilities be accounted for? somehow?
Allowing people to guarantee things that are completely unprepared to make good on seems like a really bad idea....
