A Movement By The People To Prevent The Reappointment Of The Fed Chairman - Bernanke's Failed CNBC Predictions Caught On Tape
---
Spliced video from 5 CNBC appearances from 2005-07 where Bernanke demonstrates that he knows absolutely nothing. This one is so good we need it to go viral. Please send it to your reps in Congress and to the White House. Washington contact info for everyone and everything is here.
If we can get a million voters to see the clip, and from that group, 100,000 or so to actually email the video to someone in Washington, we might just be able to make enough noise to send B-52 back to Princeton. At a minimum we will make his life miserable and cause him extreme distress as this video passes through a million households and his utter lack of competence is seen by so many. If nothing else, think of it as a few minutes of your time for karmic revenge. Thank you!
- There is no excuse or precedent for the Chairman of the Federal Reserve to misunderstand, miscalculate and misrepresent the greatest debt bubble of the last 200 years so tragically. Thousands saw it coming, but Greenspan & Bernanke were completely and utterly disconnected from reality.
- Bernanke actually said that lending standards were circumspect and safe, or something to that effect, and that regulators were closely monitoring the quality of loans made by banks. I will pause while you get off the floor from laughing.
- Every time he opens his mouth in this clip, he's not just wrong, but insufferably so. His credibility is non-existent.
- Chairman Bernanke, there is no excuse. Admit your failure. We the people ask for demand your resignation.
- Thank you!

I think it's safe to say his incompetence has created substantial trouble for taxpayers. Time to turn the tables and make his life miserable with a campaign to prevent his reappointment.
That's who's in the running for the post.
Please read this entire article:

(it's the best contribution I could ever make to your cause here)
God help us either way, and THANKS AGAIN to the Daily Bail for waking up the sheople from their consumption-induced debt-coma -Wil
He missed everything.
Now I know why he admits to mis-reading the crisis. Looks more like he's got some honesty issues. We do not need him. And not Lawrence S. either. He would sleep thru the FOMC meetings.
There are only 2 solutions: Ending the Fed and Fractional Reserve Banking, or a Volker type fed chair who is willing to make everyone miserable for 10 years with 15% interest rates to save the dollar.
I'm personally saving all of my Federal Reserve notes and T-bills to burn for warmth in the next 10 years. I may also save another pile of bills to eat, as the fiber in the paper will undoubtedly be more than I could exchange the paper for.
What do you think, is that a good idea?
I visited an old place of employment this week--a manufacturer of automation components. Since December '08 they reduced people's hours to 6 from 7 1/2, and pay by 20%. People are hurting, and it infuriates me to see that soft headed little weasel in his finely tailored pretty suit recite those evil selfish lies. Now wait until the inflation hits.
I am more convinced than ever that this den of thieves is the command central for most of our problems. I intend to refocus my efforts on helping inform people--look at what happened with Ron Paul and his 'audit the Fed' bill: he got 276 CO-SIGNERS when he was expecting a handful! All we have to do is spread the info--the outrage grows spontaneously from that.
Any other 'news' out there is a distraction, either planned or utilized happily by our rulers to try and lead us off track. Well, it isn't going to work on me anymore.

Pretty amazing.
Good stuff...Liesman gets skewered around here appropriately whenever I post a clip of him...thanks for your comments.

The Great American Bank Robbery
(From UCLA's Hammer Forum) -- William K. Black, the former litigation director of the Federal Home Loan Bank Board who investigated the Savings and Loan disaster of the 1980s, discusses the latest scandal in which a single bank, IndyMac, lost more money than was lost during the entire Savings and Loan crisis. He will examine the political failure behind this economic disaster, in which not only massive fraud has taken place, but a vast transfer of wealth from the poor and middle class continues as the federal government bails out the seemingly reckless, if not the criminal. Black teaches economics and law at the University of Missouri, Kansas City and is the author of The Best Way to Rob a Bank Is to Own One. (Run Time: 1 hour, 38 min.)

Those who are interested in what really happened should know that virtually everyone in the system, from the poorest home owner to the head of AIG and the Fed felt that housing prices could not decline substantially over the whole country at the same time -- steady inflation seemed to guarantee that prices would increase, as they had for about 70 years. By borrowing money, the buyer got the inflation profit. When prices go up 10% that can be double the amount of the down payment. Almost no one saw that the interest rate fluctuations by the Fed would so distort the market as to cause a bubble that was not visible in the Consumer Price Index (it largely ignores home prices) and then a crash.
If you are convinced that this was all a scheme by calculating crooks, you may wish to ignore the facts. On the other hand, the fact is that it does appear some calculating crooks (aided by some fools in D.C.) found a way to protect themselves at the expense of the rest of us.

I stand corrected on the housing price data for the 70s.
You have an interesting resume...

Stick around and join our daily, painful discussions...we could use your voice...
Great point K. Jacobs, and one that we make often here...
Millions of Americans have seen this coming for nearly a decade...and these folks made the smart decision to rent...never bought into the bubble...and now they have to pay for others who did...
It's pretty disgusting.
F-YOU YOU A-HOLE!!!
GO THE HELL AWAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!
THE FED NEEDS TO BE ABOLISHED NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
AND SHAVE OFF THE BEARD YOU JERK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
of fiscal stimulus.
His solution, unfortunately, consisted of ripping off all who made good decisions or saved dutifully for
retirement in favor of $US trillions in free reserves for bad decision-making and also shady bankers.
He had no problem visible with other Bad Bank apologists from New Jersey apparently propping up
venues such as Iceland for the purpose of facilitating the bad deeds of same banks, and then he
apparently was O.K. with such as the carry trade taking down other economies also in furtherance
of the bad banks' folly.
In strong arming people into bidding up bad banks' over-valued collateral, he has wacked places like
India on the head with a baseball bat by way of slamming on the value of the $US.
Believe it or not, having spent so many trillions on bad band bad assets at bad bank wished-for
prices, he's placed the Federal Reserve in a position wherein if Mr. Bernanke were to suddenly
stop benchmarking the world economy to his 0% policy, the Fed would immediately be insolvent,
absent real money creation.
He seems to have been honest-minded in these endeavors, though.
He's not actually a bag man, believe it or not, though bag men and front men abound in high
places in Washington, including at Treasury and on Pennsylvania Ave.
In short, Mr. Bernanke is a lousy banker and, based on the above video, actually would not likely
be a decent investment advisor. way too trend-following, way too presumptuous to listen to
growing choruses of dissenters.
What's a guy to do when he's come as far as Mr. Bernanke but then realizes he's not good at his
profession?
He could always go back to teaching in New Jersey and maybe start writing explanations of why what's good
for bad banks is what's good for you.
But hang on to your seats. He's not finished.
When I listen to The Bernank in this video, he reminds me of one of the kids when they were small. Every time he was lying, he smirked. The Bernank is smirking in much of these clips just the same way. Not to mention that he was a mouthpiece trolling the people to keep them stupid, and keep them IN. It's the snotty way these creepy Banksters talk. I once heard a licensed Financial Rep tell an older farmer that as long as he didn't take his money out of his account, he hadn't lost anything. He just KNEW he was so much smarter than that old, dirty, working-type man. I was floored when that old farmer didn't mash that jerk in the maw. The Bernank has the same tone. He's talkin' simple, to the simple minds like you and me.
And I have to admit, it worked on me, at the time. I had gotten out of selling cars in Jan. of 2002. After 9/11, the business crashed. It started crashing when W. hit office, and 9/11 just killed the business. In 2006, I thought maybe I'd made a bad choice and considered getting back in. My gut told me no. So I didn't. But I saw this jerk, and the sockpuppets that are the "experts" talking it all up, and I seriously considered it.
Now I put my $ in Silver and Gold. Only safe bet left. I don't have much, but I have managed to be a little ahead of the crowd, and maybe it'll keep our heads above the waterline when this all comes down.
The staged violence of Aurora, Denver and Sandy Hook and Boston is to distract us all from what we address here today. Done by the exact same little club keeping their accounts at the Royal Bank of Scotland. Maybe The Coutts Branch.
Saying that the violence was fake makes you look like a fucking nutjob.
You were already banned for 3 days. I just lifted it tonight. If there is one thing I won't tolerate, it's assholes implying that I'm censoring the truth. And you were one of those assholes. You can disagree with me all you want. But do not ever again accuse me of being a government shill, and saying things like, "Don't worry, DB. The stink will wear off soon."
The violence in Boston was real. I know 2 victims of the bombings, and 4 others who were there. If you post one more reference to actors and fake violence, you will be banned again, for good this time.
That's not my complaint. Read what I wrote again. It's right there in the first sentence. Howard is saying these events were NOT real. In all cases -- Sandy Hook, Boston, Aurora -- he is saying that the events were staged and that actors were used. THAT is why I react so negatively. For Christ's sake we are talking about dozens and dozens of tragic deaths that destroyed families.. And he thinks it's cool to say the events didn't really happen. People can debate anything they want about these events on my site. I encourage it. Except for that one thing. I just won't stand for it. It's so incredibly disrespectful to the families of those who have been killed. And that is what Howard did, has done, and will continue to do.
He said some inappropriate things the other night that I've since deleted. I did NOT start this battle. And then in his FIRST post back after a 3-day suspension, he decides to repeat his claim that the Boston attacks never happened. He was giving me the middle finger in his own unique way.
Regarding what you wrote, you know I have never criticized anyone for discussing the points you bring up. EVER. What Howard and others are doing is completely different. I'm sure you can see the difference.
