How is it that bailed out banks can so quickly show profits of billions of dollars?  To me, this does not seem right.  But then, I do not know the banking business to know if it is or not.  I guess I have just gotten very cynical of anything going on in Washington these days.  Still, I throw these things out--not to accuse--but for others to take note of that might be able to do more about it than I. 

 

Along those same lines, Washington might be tossing around a lot of money these days, but if they cannot keep track of a missing 2 trillion dollars, I think the Federal reserve really deserves to be audited as Ron Paul had suggested!  The American public should know where all this money has been going!

I forgot to mention one other thought I had about Holder's investigation of the CIA.  His doing so can only have a negative affect on employees there who may well decide that it would be better to leave the CIA than stay.  With Obama pushing his private army, it would seem to make some sense to me that he would like to do away with the CIA altogether, and this excuse of an investigation would certainly help to do that...

Listening to the news this morning about what Cheney had to say about Eric Holder supposedly acting on his own concerning his investigating the CIA:

    1) I agree with Cheney that Holder cannot be acting on his own.  Obama is running the country, and if wanted to put a stop to it, he could.  He is the chief law enforcement officer.  But as he has done before, he separates himself from the problem.  I suggest he put a stop to it immediately...because when the American people flat-out tell them through the town hall meetings that they do not want nationalized health care, and he continues pushing it, he is not pushing it for our own benefit.  With the census consisting of a 23-page questionaire that we must fill out on pain of a $2000 fine, his push for a national private army just as powerful as the military, among other things, he is the one that needs to be investigated! 

    2)  I find it interesting that with all the spending in Washington--trillions of dollars--Obama has not bothered to help states--primarily California, more than any--out of their situation.  And in the middle of a major recession, farms there cannot grow their crops all to save a little fish.  With America's great technology, you would think they could come up with a way to deal with the problem, but instead, we allow this to happen in one of America's greatest states.  Finally, I find it rather interesting that when California has had such horrendous wild fires that have contributed to their economic crisis, right after California manages to pass a budget, the wild fires there spring up yet again and burn over 1,200 homes.  There were reports that past fires there had been intentionally set, and I wonder about it now.  I wonder if Acorn, or some other group that Obama supports, could be behind it.  Do you think Obama will visit the devastation?  Will California get Federal money for the damage?  Probably not...
