The White House vs. Rick Santelli

Santelli doesn't understand. The ones that don't understand are sitting on capitol hill. 435 plus 100 plus 1 morons who are pandering for votes instead of taking care of protecting our country.

Palosi forces vote on 1000 plus page bill, so she can junket to see the pope. 10 congressmen to India to celebrate Martin Luther King day. Four appointments to cabinet positions that don't feel the need to pay their taxes. How many more. Dodd and company taking cheap loans (payoffs for influence) from countrywide then pontificating about banks.

Give me a break. Washington politicians need to go. Loyal Americans need to work toward removing this garbage.

Term limits.

CNBC's Specious Reporting on the Housing Plan

Typical liberal rant, debase the other person and make them sound unamerican for voicing an opinion.

I have been listening to Santelli for years now. His rant was a result of a cumulative seething that permeates America today. Way too much accomodation to illegals, and to the poor poor pitiful that have for the most part brought it on themselves.

Unfortunately, and another of Rick's themes, the government has facilitiated this over the years. Buy, buy, buy then go look for politicians to make it better. If the govt was really concerned for these people they would have better education programs in place to help everyone understand the consequences of their actions.

Govt needs to go, Santelli needs to stay.

Contributing to Your IRA for 2008/2009: It's About Tax Benefits, Not Returns

Here's another one, certificates of deposit. Put it in for 6 mo-yr get your 2-3 percent and maintain tax benefits and protect money to some extent.

Not a recommendation, just another option

Financial Engineering and Wall Street Compensation

I, for one am tired of this bogus topic. Intellectual capital? = failure

If these people don't want to work for less, let them leave. There are plenty of talented people who will rise to the occasion.

This is same argument I have with politicians. They also gave themselves a payraise. We don't need more of the same, we need new blood in all aspects of our lives at the moment.

Bank of America: 'Paulson Plan Benefits Mostly Goldman, Morgan'

Paulson is the fox guarding the chicken coop. He was at the head of goldman, hence the perpetrator of the current crisis. Now, after he takes his millions in bonuses, he is in charge of fixing the problem. His fix, trust me I know whats best. I think I know what is best. Investigate who is responsible, and begin procedures to nationalize all that they have reaped, or maybe should be raped. Take back their bonuses, take their big houses, take their off shore accounts and put them in debtors prison. Just a thought.

Do Paulson and Bernanke Really Understand What's Going On?

They get it, we don't. They are in it for themselves and their buddies. America has been sold out.
