Geitner in Hot Seat - CSPAN 3 Jan 27 2010 10am until ??

[MsDoodahs]

congressman Issa, at the opening, was listing some people who he has asked to sit in and that they be allowed to ask ?s if there is ample time.

In the list, he said something like..."Ron Paul, whose credentials on this subject are well known."

He kinda chuckled when he said it and my first thought was Issa knows damned well that without RP, NONE OF THIS WOULD BE HAPPENING.

:)

[HOLLYWOOD]

I missed it... so wait until C-SPAN posts the video archive to review.

Geithner is Lying Weasel... time to chop the head off this beast.

[HOLLYWOOD]

OBJECTION your Honor! The Crony corrupt Congressman from Pennsylvania is LEADING THE WITNESS!

Rep Paul Kanjorski (D-PA) is a SHILL... the man is well rehearsed in his patronization of; THE FED, The US Treasury and Tim-May Geithner.

[MsDoodahs]

Who is this guy that just nailed Geitner to the wall?

BURTON.

Oh, man. Geitner is in trouble.

I can't beleive I'm seeing this.

Cummings seems to be trying to give Timmy an out.

[MsDoodahs]

You know what strikes me the most sad?

Yet the thread about "Obamagirl" has over 200.

:rolleyes:

In all fairness, I don't know who "Issa" is, and I didn't know what it was in reference to. I finally got curious, being that "Issa" is one of my nicknames. :)

My search for "Obamagirl" led here.

Many thanks!

[eok321]

Is ron there?

[Bruno]

Goldman Sachs coming under fire, too. :)

this is getting good!

[itshappening]

will Ron be on this?

Saves me from watching...

[MsDoodahs]

Issa, at the opening of the hearing, named about 6 additional congressmen who are present and who, Issa said, will be asking questions if there is time.

He named each of them, and said where they are from or whatever.

He said, "and Congressman Ron Paul ...whose credentials on this subject matter are known by all" or something like that.

It was a nice compliment to Dr. Paul, I thought.

So Ron will be able to ask questions IF there is ample time.

Tho considering how this hearing is going....I doubt there will be time.

This shit is AMAZING you guys.

WILL GEITNER SURVIVE THIS?

[Bruno]

Is ron there?

guess he will be according to MsD

"Sir, you are absolutely a politician!" haha Timmy

[MsDoodahs]

But but but....the fed isn't politicized.

WOW - you don't work for the American people, you work for the BANKERS WHO ELECTED YOU.

HA HA HA HA

Timmy is getting TORN APART.

[Bruno]

This is really good stuff. How many people two years ago would have been even talking about the Fed, let alone multiple congressmpersons asking these tough questions??
\
Wow! That was a youtube-worthy exchange! Put G in his place!

someone give him a towel - he's going to need it to wipe the sweat from his brow. :)

[MsDoodahs]

I LOVE YOU MARCY KAPTOR!!!!

"who did he work for before that?"

sneering timmy "you know the answer to that - Goldman Sachs."

I literally SCREAMED when he had to say it, y'all!

GO MARCY GO!

GO MARCY GO!

[CGeoffrion]

I can't believe I'm watching this right now, Geithner is getting raped


Bernanke's reappointment may not be a done deal....

[Annihilia]

I LOVE YOU MARCY KAPTOR!!!!

"who did he work for before that?"

sneering timmy "you know the answer to that - Goldman Sachs."

I literally SCREAMED when he had to say it, y'all!

GO MARCY GO!

GO MARCY GO!

Yes! I loved that.

BURN THAT FUCKER

[Austrian Econ Disciple]

I can't believe I'm watching this right now, Geithner is getting raped


Bernanke's reappointment may not be a done deal....

Too bad I'm at work, I'd love to be watching this. But, as we all know, you can't tame the untameable so it doesn't matter who gets put in charge of the Fed. Central Banking seals the deal on what is to come. It doesn't matter if it's Bernanke, Volcker, or Samuelson.

[HOLLYWOOD]

GO MARCY GO!

That was the best and most affective for the general public to understand; the conspiring, colluding, racketeering going on behind the scenes.

These Congress Critters need to limit Giethner's responses... he's eating up critical time and it's only lies and propaganda anyway. Marcy Kaptur controlled him on this.

[armstrong]

wow this is good......

[LibertyEagle]

True enough. But, this is part of taking down the FED. First, you have to expose the sucker for what it is.

[LibertyEagle]

Guys, after this is over, we need to go find the video of it and save it. If Ron runs, we are likely going to want some of this for some YouTubes.

[MsDoodahs]

Was it Marcy Kaptor that pushed Tim on who elected him (private bankers?)

[Bruno]

speaking of which - he'll be on later this morning or afternoon, i take it?

[Valli6]

Kaptur did great! After admitting that the guy worked for Goldman-Sachs, Geithner kept trying to tack on an explanation to downplay his answer, but she wouldnt' let him.

G: (quietly) "goldman-sachs, but..."

K: "You've answered the question."

G: (worried) "But, blah blahblah bla...

K: (louder) "You've answered the question!"

G: (desperately) "...but, blah, blah, blah...

K: (still louder) "YOU"VE ANSWERED THE QUESTION!!!

[MsDoodahs]

House Oversight Committee.

Just in case we need that when gathering video clips.

[JK/SEA]

I keep waiting for Federal Marshalls to come in and arrest this poor excuse.

[armstrong]

timmy yes or no

[Cinderella]

omg way to beat around the bush and stall.....whats that commercial? the twix one?

[armstrong]

timmy --( I did not do that ) he he

[armstrong]

go rep. Jordan

[Sarge]

Pop goes the weasel.

He can't even look them in the eye during his testimony.

[MsDoodahs]

This is historic, people.

I have stuff to do and have been glued to the set.

But alas, I must depart.

So I will say it now...

TUUUUUUUUUBE!!!!!

lol...

[armstrong]

Pop goes the weasel.

He can't even look them in the eye during his testimony.

:D

[armstrong]

omfg downgrading ins co. is bad......?

[Cinderella]

check out girl with facial issues in the back...lol...

when is Ron coming on?

[armstrong]

man I need to hire a 100 lawyers to get through timmys explanations blah blah blah

[armstrong]

I feel I describe I agree but was not involved yet I am in control but dont know anything geeeez

[Bruno]

omfg downgrading ins co. is bad......?

of course! We need to give them money printed out of thin air to raise their credit rating so people will think they are more reliable in the future than the have been in the past. :rolleyes:

[HOLLYWOOD]

Was it Marcy Kaptor that pushed Tim on who elected him (private bankers?)


Yeap...


ALSO: Geithner actually misrepresented his career... he said he has served his entire live serving the public sector.

THE FED is a PRIVATE entity that helped destroyed the economy and caused massive inflation over the past 100 years.

Also the IMF is the Loan Shark Mafioso Thugs of the world... that's not serving the American People. It drains $100's of Billions from the American standard of living over the decades.
Representative William Lacy Clay is another SHILL... prepared Black & White statement that the clown can't even read. More patronization for the Obama regime. Bet Rahm Emanuel's Klan prepared some of these statements for these DUMBOCRAT SHILLS to PARROT.

What Idiots

[itshappening]

Ron is not there, i cant be bothered wastching it

[Bruno]

Billbray's questioning should be good, too.

[Sarge]

This guy is letting him waltz around the answer and run the clock with his bs answers.

[Bruno]

Ron is not there, i cant be bothered wastching it

then you are missing some really good grillin'! Grab your knife and fork - Geithner is almost done!

[armstrong]

come on timmy just say I dont recall

[HOLLYWOOD]

Pop goes the weasel.

He can't even look them in the eye during his testimony.


Ask any psychiatrists/sociologists... the eye contact tells you whether he's lying if his eyes move away during his answers. Geithner has been lying for most of this hearing.

[Bruno]

anyone else just lose their feed?

[armstrong]

come on timmy with consoltation with my lawers to get the f##K out

[Bruno]

geez, now Timmy is getting off early because Paulson is on deck

[Cinderella]

yep...Is Dr. Paul speaking today?

[HOLLYWOOD]

This is Bullshit...

This should be a FULL 8 HOURS on Geithner...

What the hell is this patronization for Hank Paulson? Adolph Towns is a Dipshit... and this is how you how it's all covered up. Those lawyer written answers will lead to nothings.

[nelsonwinters]

I LOVE YOU MARCY KAPTOR!!!!

[armstrong]

you are so right on that !!!!!!!!!!

[Bruno]

doesn't seem like he is holding the dems to the 1 minute time limit

[HOLLYWOOD]

HAH! Told yah... 18 phone calls to Obama's Chief of Staff, Ex Wall Streeter and Insider Fraudster, Rahm Emanuel! Damn, limit in time gets Geithner off the hook.

[Bruno]

HAH! Told yah... 18 phone calls to Rahm Emanuel! Damn, limit in time gets Geithner off the hook.

at least he slipped that in there, though. :D

[Bruno]

Bring on HANK!

[armstrong]

remember paulson said he would tell the truth

[Valli6]

Why is Paulson allowed to leave at a pre-determined time for "another appointment", and so place a limit on Geithner's time? Why aren't they forced to stay until everyone's had a chance to ask their questions?! I'd like to know who his "other appointment" is with!

[Bruno]

my question to Hank - how much did your stock benefit from the backdoor bailiout of Goldman Sachs through the AIG bailout?

[armstrong]

so timmy - not involved in decisions
so Paulson - not involved in decisons
who was? geez this is hard to watch sometimes...

[armstrong]

but they both agree it was imparitive to bail them out

[HOLLYWOOD]

remember paulson said he would tell the truth


Remember... Hank Paulson got to CASH IN his $250 MILLION in Stock... TAX FREE, when he had his donors(Master Puppeteers of Washington DC) appoint him to the US Treasury Secretary. (IRS / Government LOOPHOLE for the Masters and Elitists)

$250 MILLION TAX FREE... Paulson is a Criminal in Conspiring to avoid to paying ZERO taxes on Capital gains.

[haaaylee]

didn't know that important piece of info. Thanks!

[armstrong]

again paulson no involvement

[Bruno]

Paulson : "hey, I'd been working real hard. Even on the weekends!"

reminds me of the Bush skit

[armstrong]

the two main guys were not involved @##$$%$#^%$#@&^*&^%*&(

[Sarge]

They were not involved. What are we paying them for. Fire them all. They were all involved in not seeing the problems.

[armstrong]

so we take hundreds of billions of dollars from taxpayers and disperse it and the two top dogs were not involved in the decisions on aig bailout---this is a disgrace

[DapperDan]

LOL!

Paulson "I'm proud of TARP"

He just admitted they print money!!!!!!




Paulson what a weasel! Off to jail jackass.

[armstrong]

paulson all those phone calls were on other important matters

Unfortunately, he never did get to ask questions - not enough time.:mad:

Geithner’s main lie paraphrased: “It was all the fault of the free-market. We need more government regulation.”

edit: Now Paulson has just finished stating the same lie.

It is kind of a pay to play scheme. Goldman dished out the most to Obama on the campaign trail and are getting power positions in regards to Central Economic Planning. Obviously, all Investment Banks with shares in the Federal Reserve are benefitting from these policies, but it seems to me Goldman is the biggest player on the block.

It's rebroadcast on C-span now, as I understand this we bailout AIG to save Goldman and eliminate Lehman, and that worked out so well , everyone else got in line

But the best part is no one recoginizes a lie better than a politician
, so its you lied to me
so I lied to the public,
but just because I caused the problem in the first palce,
you stole the money I gave you
because I was too stupid or lazy to ask these questions before I gave you the money
