Holder, Another Soros Bought Radical

AG Designate Holder is a Soros Man
Ed Lasky in American Thinker

The group of billionaire activists often come together under the rubric of the Democracy Alliance (DA) . This group has, among other activities, funded the Secretary of States Project that has helped to elect friendly state Secretary of States so as to have friends in key positions come election time. The group has also worked to elect friendly Senators (Al Franken in Minnesota, for one example). The Democracy Alliance has funded a smorgasbord of left-wing activists groups-such as ACORN and MoveOn.Org.

Keep electing Left Wing Nuts and you will keep getting more Left Wing Nuts.
Voter is no longer responsible because he trust the Nuts that paid for his information.

Justice, as we know it, is being defined by these players and their money.

China Needs Trump U.S. Capitalism

Running and Ruining America for the Benefit of China

AIM Column | By Cliff Kincaid | January 20, 2009
Excerpts below, but complete article linked to Running and Ruining above:

Geithner’s “qualifications” include working for Henry Kissinger, elder statesman of the foreign policy establishment and now an adviser to corporations doing business in China, and serving as President of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, where he played a role in the Wall Street and other bailouts. Kissinger recently made headlines on CNBC by proclaiming Obama the architect of a “New World Order” and praising Obama’s appointments in the financial realm. Everybody knew that he was talking about his student, Geithner.

Geithner’s “international respect” comes from Kissinger and other global players in such organizations as the Group of Thirty and the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR), which wield major influence over U.S. economic and foreign policy. Geithner is a member of both groups....

In this context, it is worth noting that corporate members of the CFR include ABC News, General Electric (parent of NBC News), News Corporation (parent of Fox News and the Wall Street Journal), and Time Warner (parent of CNN and Time). Veteran NBC newsman Tom Brokaw serves on the advisory board of the CFR journal Foreign Affairs. Jim Hoagland, an associate editor, chief foreign correspondent and weekly columnist for the Washington Post, is also on the Foreign Affairs advisory board....

Wall Street, which has backed Obama for years, has a vested interest in his success. Billionaire and Obama backer George Soros, convicted of insider trading in France, supports the Group of Thirty and his Soros Fund Management is a member of the exclusive “President’s Circle” of CFR funders. But the success of Obama’s financial and economic policies seems to depend on the cooperation of the Chinese Communists.

In one of the few stories to capture the essence of what is happening with the Geithner appointment, William Pesek of Bloomberg wrote an article appearing in the China Post under the headline, “China Will Be Happy With Geithner.”...

An article in the new Foreign Affairs by Roger Altman, a U.S. Deputy Treasury Secretary under Clinton, is quite blunt, noting that the financial crisis has enabled China to “achieve a stronger relative global position” and that the communist regime now has “the opportunity to solidify its strategic advantages.” In other words, we seem to be at their mercy.

From the Obama perspective, the only way out is to go further into debt and beg for more money, mainly from the Chinese but also from the oil-rich Arabs.

Geithner, who speaks Chinese and lived in China, seems to be the perfect man for this job. In fact, he is probably better for the job than Paulson, who traveled to China 70 times and even had personal investments in the country. His former firm, Goldman Sachs, is the exclusive agent for certain Chinese securities transactions.

Whether the U.S. should be subservient to China in Kissinger’s “New World Order” is something that is not even being debated. It is just assumed as a fact of life. The options of reducing spending and debt and rebuilding the strength of the U.S. dollar are rarely considered. Except for some House conservatives, who have introduced the Economic Recovery and Middle-Class Tax Relief Act, the Republican Party in the Congress is either in disarray or rooting for a version of the Obama approach....

AIG is perhaps the most interesting. This insurance giant was bailed out with taxpayer dollars after Paulson let Lehman Brothers go under. Geithner was a key player in the AIG bailout. His former boss, Henry Kissinger, was chairman of AIG’s International Advisory Board. Other members of the board represent Chinese and Arab financial interests.

But there was another reason that AIG had to be saved. The New York Times reported in a controversial September 27, 2008, article by Gretchen Morgenson that AIG’s collapse could have cost Paulson’s old firm, Goldman Sachs, as much as $20 billion.

AIG’s taxpayer bailout has now reached $150 billion. We are supposed to be reassured, however, by the fact that Geithner’s New York Federal Reserve on January 16 named three trustees to oversee the U.S. government’s nearly 80 percent equity stake in the insurer. One of those trustees is Jill Considine, who has been a member of the Group of Thirty as well as the CFR.

With Change like this, Bush looks great. Forgot, he isn't an elite, articulate, Socialist that the media selected.

Geithner, The Real Bailout Czar

Special Report: The Obama Era Begins by Jonathan Hoenig (Author Archive)

from Smartmoney.com

The Real Problem with Geithner for Treasury

The Real Bailout Czar

In an age of bailouts, Geithner is the original Bailout Czar. It was Geithner, after all, who was the instrumental figure in arranging JP Morgan’s (JPM: 22.82, -1.52, -6.24%) takeover of Bear Stearns, a deal in which $29 billion of taxpayer money was pledged as a backstop against illiquid and toxic assets.

It wasn’t Hank Paulson, but rather Tim Geithner who put together the plan to have the government rescue AIG, to the tune of $85 billion and growing.

It has been widely noted Geithner was in favor of stepping in with taxpayer dollars to save Lehman Brothers. I guess it’s pretty easy to spend taxpayer dollars when you aren’t even paying your own taxes.

If you are unfamiliar with Geithner, simply go the Federal Reserve’s web site to see a line-item balance sheet of his work: billions of tax dollars for AIG, Bear Stearns (look for “Maiden Lane LLC”; it’s the corporation created for Bear Stearns’s liquidation), commercial money markets and loans to primary dealers.

Maybe the Czar that got us in this mess can get us out. Not likely, but maybe he can switch the blame to Bush.

Geithner fits the Obama Profile, Reward Failure.

Geitner and His Connections

The Big Money Behind Geithner by Cliff Kincaid

As we have pointed out, major media companies such as GE (parent of NBC News) and the Washington Post Company have their own connections to Geithner through their own officials and board members. They have a conflict of interest that will never be reported by the news organizations themselves.

The real story, which can only emerge through talk radio and alternative media, is that Geithner has very powerful political and financial connections, not only to the media but the banking interests and lobbies that try to orchestrate U.S. policy behind the scenes.

The President of the New York Federal Reserve Bank, the Chinese-speaking Geithner is an associate of Henry Kissinger who can be counted on to convince the Chinese Communists to continue to buy the U.S. debt and finance Obama’s massive expansion of federal government power. That is why Obama and his fellow Democrats are putting so much faith in him.

As Henry Kissinger recently put it, when he was celebrating U.S.-China relations on the floor of the New York Stock Exchange, Obama’s mission is to usher in a “New World Order.” He forgot to mention, of course, that it is a China-dominated New World Order in which the U.S. has become a subsidiary of China Inc....

It also turns out that Geithner’s father, Peter F. Geithner, serves on the board with Kissinger of the National Committee on U.S.-China Relations. This is the group that rang the opening bell at the New York Stock Exchange, celebrating Chinese investments in the U.S. economy. In another interesting connection, it turns out that Peter F. Geithner was with the Ford Foundation and oversaw the work of Obama’s mother, Ann Dunham, developing what are called microfinance programs in Indonesia....

It doesn’t take much digging. For anybody in the dark about this, please consult and closely study his bio. Geithner is a wheeler-dealer for powerful special interests.

If you examine the nature of the “Group of Thirty,” an affiliation which appears at the bottom of his biography, right after his Council on Foreign Relations membership, you will quickly learn that the President of the New York Federal Reserve Bank is an associate of the governor of the Chinese central bank through this mysterious organization of bankers and other top current and former officials from various countries. You will notice that other Obama nominees and associates are members, including Paul Volcker and Lawrence Summers.

Meets all the standard B..HO requirements. Corrupt, powerful, and obligated.

Check out the "Group of Thirty."

Geithner Corruption Qualifications

Why Are the Media Protecting Geithner?

AIM Column | By Cliff Kincaid | January 14, 2009

Our media have quickly adopted the new party line. The NBC Nightly News dutifully reported Geithner’s “honest mistakes” in the graphic it showed on Tuesday night in a story about the serious tax problems. Officially, the Obama team calls them “tax concerns.” But it’s nothing we are supposed to be concerned about, even though he is going to be in charge of the federal department with jurisdiction over the IRS.

There were some holes in the brief NBC News story, which followed a more serious report about cold weather possibly threatening the celebratory atmosphere surrounding Obama’s inauguration. Reporter Kelly O’Donnell’s story failed to disclose that Jeffrey Immelt, chairman and chief executive officer of NBC parent company General Electric (GE), is on the board of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, whose president is Timothy Geithner.

It is also interesting to note that a subsidiary of GE, GE Capital, is getting some of the federal bailout money that Geithner, if he is confirmed, will have a role in managing. Conflict of interest, anyone?

Geithner meets the qualification for the B.. HO Society. You have to have committed enough corruption to be dependent on The Emperor for protection, thus creating an unconditional loyalty to B..HO, not the people of the United States of America. Ever heard of Impeached Gov. Rod R. Blagojevich? Guess who crossed B..HO? Wonder what they have on Attorney Patrick Fitzgerald? Good thing he indited Gov. Blagojevich before exposing B.. HO., or did he? That certainly improved Patrick Fitzgerald's negotiation position, until Eric Holder is sworn in. Wouldn't it be appropriate if Eric Holder isn't confirmed and Fitzgerald is nominated to replace him.

Straight out of the Chicago Playbook. Isn't our Changed Government going to be fun and predictable, but so sad for the U.S.A. B.. HO is running a training class for the less competent Socialist Governments out there. After his coup, the U.S. could have the purest, most corrupt Socialist Government in the world.

Now that's Change you can count on!

Soros the Master, B.H. Obama the Emperor?

Soros Flunky Runs Obama’s Pro-U.N. Policy

AIM Column | By Cliff Kincaid | January 11, 2009

The Berger associate, Eric. P. Schwartz, is the executive director of the U.S. Connect Fund and represents several liberal and leftist foundations, including and most notably the Open Society Institute of financial hedge-fund operator George Soros. Soros is considered by some the virtual owner of the Democratic Party, having contributed lavishly to the party, its causes and candidates, including Obama. He personally contributed $50,000, the maximum allowed, to the Obama inauguration....

Soros, who backed Obama during the presidential campaign, is a well-known advocate of a “New World Order” in which the U.S. refuses to act unilaterally in its own interests but works through international organizations such as the U.N. on foreign policy matters. Critics note that such an approach gives the U.N. and other nations a veto over what the U.S. can do militarily.

A convicted inside trader whose currency manipulations have been known to threaten national governments and currencies, he testified on November 13, 2008, before the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform about the risks posed by the hedge funds that he and other billionaires operate. In addition to the Democratic Party, his financial fingerprints are all over leftist, “progressive” and news media organizations.

The Connect U.S. Fund is funded by Soros’s Open Society Institute and other liberal foundations and provides grants to pro-U.N. groups around the country. These groups, which provide the appearance of public support for more U.S. involvement in the U.N., were involved in a January 10 national conference call to promote a “Responsible U. S. Global Engagement” agenda for the Obama Administration. They are releasing a letter to Obama this week urging close cooperation with the U.N. on such issues as human rights, climate change, arms control and foreign aid.

This is bound to find a favorable response, since the co-chair of the Obama-Biden Transition Project, John Podesta, a former Clinton chief of staff, comes from another Soros-funded group, the Center for American Progress.

Soros, Sandy Burgler, John Podesta, Citigroup, and Swartz. (Wonder if Schwartz is a relative of Soros since his name was originally Schwartz). If these are some of the associates of BHO, Emperor Elect, just imagine the power of Master Soros when BHO becomes the Designated Emperor, legal or not.

While Soros contributed $50,000, his family contributed over $250,000 combined.

The Great America we know today is on the verge of becoming another socialist society which may never recover from the society Master Soros has created.

We can only pray that the Emperor gets some clothes.

God Bless America.

Carol M. Browner-Global Warming Czar- Socialist?

Obama climate czar has socialist ties

Group sees 'global governance' as solution

Stephen Dinan (Contact)
Originally published 05:45 a.m., January 12, 2009, updated 05:45 a.m., January 12, 2009

Until last week, Carol M. Browner, President-elect Barack Obama's pick as global warming czar, was listed as one of 14 leaders of a socialist group's Commission for a Sustainable World Society, which calls for "global governance" and says rich countries must shrink their economies to address climate change....

Mrs. Browner ran the Environmental Protection Agency under President Clinton. Until she was tapped for the Obama administration, she was on the board of directors for the National Audubon Society, the League of Conservation Voters, the Center for American Progress and former Vice President Al Gore's Alliance for Climate Protection.

This doesn't surprise me, but it may or may not surprise you if you voted for a Socialist Leader. Transparency will be redefined just as marriage and illegal is being redefined.

Soros-Funded Democratic Idea Factory Becomes Obama Policy Font
By Edwin Chen Bloomberg.com
Last Updated: November 18, 2008 00:01 EST

Thanks in part to funding from benefactors such as billionaire George Soros, the Center for American Progress has become in just five years an intellectual wellspring for Democratic policy proposals, including many that are shaping the agenda of the new Obama administration. ...

CAP's president and founder, John Podesta, 59, former chief of staff to President Bill Clinton, is one of three people running the transition team for president-elect Barack Obama, 47. A squadron of CAP experts is working with them. ...

To help promote its ideas, CAP employs 11 full-time bloggers who contribute to two Web sites, ThinkProgress and the Wonk Room; others prepare daily feeds for radio stations. The center's policy briefings are standing-room only, packed with lobbyists, advocacy-group representatives and reporters looking for insights on where the Obama administration is headed. ...

Just eight days after the Nov. 4 election, CAP released a 300,000-word volume called ``Change for America: A Progressive Blueprint for the 44th President'' that offers advice on issues such as economic revival and fixing the Federal Emergency Management Agency. Work on the book began almost a year ago. ...

CAP, which has 180 staffers and a $27 million budget, devotes as much as half of its resources to promoting its ideas through blogs, events, publications and media outreach.

Who is Unnamed Adviser?

Blagojevich’s Big Conference Call and Valerie Jarrett’s Clean Break

Washington Wire by Cam Simpson reports on Rod Blagojevich.

The call lasted about two hours. On the phone were Mr. Blagojevich, his wife, his general counsel, an unnamed adviser, and John Harris, the governor’s chief of staff and his co-defendant in this week’s case.

But what’s drawing the most interest is who was on the line from Washington, and the sequence of political events that followed that same night and in the ensuing days regarding Barack Obama’s close friend and adviser, Valerie Jarrett.

Any bets on Rahm Emanuel? Any bets he exposed Blago?

Transparency and candor is not B. Hussein Obama's strong suit. Expect BHO Administration to perfect the Clinton Administration tactic of How Do I Fool them Today?

I'm forecasting a new BHO Lawyer Stimulus Department (LSD) to handle the corruption and new laws needed to protect the BHO Administration from the Constitution and the American People. Remember, they already control the Legislative and The Judicial Branch.

Rubin Shows U.S. the Way!

Former Clinton Treasury Secretary Turned Obama Adviser Was Paid Tens of Millions by Bailed-Out Citigroup
Tuesday, November 25, 2008
By Matt Cover

(CNSNews.com) – Robert Rubin, a key economic advisor to President-elect Barack Obama who served as Treasury secretary in the Clinton Administration, has been one of the highest paid executives at the now twice bailed-out financial giant Citigroup.

Rubin, who has been associated with the bank since 1999, served as its interim chairman from November to December 2007.
Rubin’s role has been described as an advisor to the company’s top executives....

“It’s a little like visiting Yoda, you go and get a dose of wisdom,” Citigroup co-head of global investment banking Raymond J. McGuire told the Times.

McGuire, who is one of Obama’s bundlers – the fundraising titans responsible for bankrolling Obama’s presidential campaign – is a member with Rubin on Citigroup’s Senior Leadership Committee.

Rubin has been well compensated for his advice, earning $17.3 million in 2006, according to Citigroup’s SEC filings. Rubin earned $16.4 million in 2005, $16.5 million in 2004, and $16.6 million in 2003.

Rubin has also served on the executive board of the struggling Ford Motor Co. as a director until 2006, which paid him over $100,000 that year, according to Forbes.com.

Sources: Pritzker, Napolitano being vetted for Cabinet

Also, multiple Democratic sources say billionaire Chicago businesswoman Penny Pritzker is Obama's choice for commerce secretary. Pritzker ran Barack Obama's record-breaking fundraising effort, serving as the campaign's finance chair.

The sources say Prtizker would accept the job, which would be formally offered after vetting is complete. But whether the rigors of the Obama vetting process will present a challenge to a businessperson with no record in public office -- and presumably extensive financial holdings -- is still a question.

Published: November 9, 2008

Being considered for: Attorney general, but associates now say she is not interested in being considered for the job.

Carries as baggage: Her work at Fannie Mae, which had to be bailed out by the government in September as part of a $200 billion deal. Ms. Gorelick left the company just as it was coming under attack for huge accounting failures. She has also drawn criticism for her role at the Justice Department, in which she allegedly created an intelligence “wall” that hindered counterterrorism agents in the years before the Sept. 11 attacks. Conservatives called for her removal from the Sept. 11 commission, but her fellow members rallied around her and said critics were distorting her record. The criticism grew so heated that the F.B.I. investigated a death threat against her family, and President Bush had to intervene personally to stop the Justice Department from releasing sealed reports involving her. Some conservative bloggers have already begun trying to derail Ms. Gorelick’s possible nomination as attorney general, pointing to her experiences at both Fannie Mae and the Sept. 11 commission.

CAP’s John Podesta Confirms He’ll Lead Obama Transition

By Matthew Vadum Thursday, November 6, 2008

This is not surprising. Echoing a Nation magazine report, we noted a year and a half ago that the aggressive think tank is viewed as a kind of left-wing “shadow government,” or government-in-waiting.

CAP has taken in at least $9 million from the Democracy Alliance. The bulk of the money has come from Democratic Party owner and financial speculator George Soros, insurance tycoon Peter B. Lewis, and Herb and Marion Sandler, the financial innovators who somehow convinced Wachovia to buy their now-troubled financial institution.

Podesta was appointed President and CEO of the Center for American Progress (CAP) at its founding on July 7, 2003. He was hand-picked for the job by CAP founders George Soros and Morton H. Halperin, according to a March 1, 2004 report in The Nation by Robert Dreyfuss. Inside sources have described CAP as "the official Hillary Clinton think tank" -- a media spin machine and policy generator designed to serve as a springboard for Mrs. Clinton's presidential ambitions.
