OK who stole 25 mil? Help me out here…

Just liberal whining. The guy who was hired to be the CEO at
Washington Mutual had a contract requiring a $25 million (actually I
think it’s 22) severance package.
Within two weeks WAMU was taken over and he was terminated.
Last I heard the status of his package was in doubt.
Liberals hate the idea of contracts being honored. Dishonesty is the core of everything they believe.
Indyone,
I didn't mean to target you solely and be mean. I thank you for the clarification on your position.*sigh*, I dunno you tell me since you were obviously in the same f'n room with the two of them for over 20 years. And why you're at it, please kindly refresh my memory about relationships I had with my colleagues, associates and relatives since obviously you listened in on those conversations as well. Thanks.So when was Obama lying? When he claimed that he never realized that Wright promoted such racially divisive, hateful, and ridiculuous positions(We deserved 9/11 and maybe worse…the Federal government create AIDs to attack his people, to name a few), or was he lying when he claimed he was an active member of Wright’s congregation. Which was it?

You're missing the point. Your buddy Barack has hung himself up in his own lies by contradicting himself.
Either he's lying when he said he was actively involved in that congregation all those years, because otherwise he certainly would have known about the nature of Rev. Wright's "theology" of hatred, or he's lying when he claimed he'd never heard Wright espouse such views.
I hate to bring Hitler into this, but here goes:
It is not truth that matters, but victory.Adolf Hitler What luck for rulers, that men do not think.
Adolf Hitler The victor will never be asked if he told the truth.
Adolf Hitler The broad masses of a population are more amenable to the appeal of rhetoric than to any other force.
Adolf Hitler I thought those were appropriate. I believe Obama and Biden are blatantly lying to the American people, and the national press is letting them do it. If they get in, the world will be VERY different in four years, and not for the better. Obama, keep the change.

Now_Indy,
Do you recommend Gold? Or should I just cash out and buy guns?

It must have been about 1979–I was on the regional staff, doing seminars all over the country.
It was Tampa–a big group, perhaps 500. We were talking about how to deal with economic crisis.
There was a guy who at some point stood up and walked to the front. Odd, but I didn’t stop him.
He turned around to the group and in a loud voice announced, "This guy
is full of crap. All you need is a storm cellar, gold, canned
goods and a shotgun to blow their ass away if they try to take your
gold or canned goods."
Some guy hollered back, “Who are they?” The guy just stared at him and said, "You know who I’m talking about."
When you lose control of a seminar you never know what will happen.

Isn't there supposed to be some sort of 'internet rule' that when you bring up Hitler the thread ends?
We can all blame Mike Ditka for this bullshit we’re in. If he would’ve man’d up and run against Obama a few years back, we’d won and Obama would be running some quasi not for profit in the lower ward of South Chicago.
How does one even have that many Hitler quotes in their back pocket?

Not because of a revolution, but in case Obama clamps down on gun purchases during his regime administration. I am hoping that the Dems can screw it up so bad in two years that the Republicans can clean house in 2010. Let's just hope that no Justices die in the next four years![quote=HymanRoth]

I know it’s popular to bash Obama but…
If the man is an idiot why is Warren Buffett backing him?? Would Buffett really back a socialist?? Or is the socialist claim just the republicans bashing the democrats like they always do? By the way, cut throat 1890's style capitalism isn't much better than socialism. We put the kids back to work in the sweatshops, let a few crooked CEOs have the power, and let power flow upward into fewer and fewer hands. We need capitalism with a safety net and sensible regulations. We aren't living in the 1790's anymore. We aren't 13 farming colonies. Laissez Faire theory is great in the textbook but breaks down in real life for the same reasons socialism breaks down - human greed. I am a Republican by the way but I am disenchanted with them right now.[quote=glass man]I know it’s popular to bash Obama but…

Just because someone has had tremendous success as an investor over the years does not mean he can't share Obama's views. Who the hell knows what makes anyone tick?I think Buffett has “rich guilt.” That is where you actually feel bad that you are so successful. He bought in to Obama’s speeches of how he can help the under $250k crowd.
Here’s a test:
Weigh your heart against your brain. If your heart weighs more (you use emotions to make decisions), then you are a liberal. If your brain weighs more (you use facts to make decisions), then you are a conservative. It's not that liberals don't have a brain, or that conservatives don't have a heart, it's just that one always has more pull. For some it's the heart, for some it's the brain.Most of the stuff I’ve read about Buffett puts him solidly in the “socially progressive” category. I remember seeing somewhere that he and his wife were really heavily into the Planned Parenthood agenda, fwiw.
