President Obama has said many times that he has inherited this mess
and thus far it's true, however, if any of you have been wondering about Geithner and most of the players at the fed, well, they didn't inherit this, they made it and also if you've been wondering why a GM CEO was fired(right move) but not one banking CEO has been (wrong move) I found that one out. The old CEO know where the bodies are and they know that they must keep them hidden. I don't know if Obama is in on the cover up or is a patsy - neither one is cool at all. What needs to happen is that each of those CEOs are fired and well picked regulators are put in their places with armies of accountants to fully understand how soluble a given organization is and to figure out who where the fraudsters at each company- it's likely 10% or less of the employed. We need to stop hemorrhaging money toward the banking system to put off the inevitable awareness that no amount of money will stop the crash but the quicker we allow it to happen, the more money our government will have to poor into WPA II, and as many other social nets as humanly possible.

What I just got from Moyer's show was that it can't be saved but it can be covered up so the public doesn't get scared. Fuck scared, I'm furious.

I used to be a SCUBA diver and once took a cavern diving course. As part of the safety part, they showed three kids going into a cave who hadn't been trained so they did everything wrong including obscuring their way out. But their biggest mistake was following an air consumption rule from open water diving. at 1/4 tank, they signaled it was time to go back. The camera was recovered when they recovered the bodies. The person showing us the video, stopped at that moment to tell us that all footage after that was being shot by a dead man.

For some reason this keeps coming back to me. The banks aren't to be rescued alive. They are already dead and don't know it or rather some of them know it and are trying their hardest not to let us catch on.

6. Until today, seeing that thirty minute discussion with Bill Moyer
I finally y see what must be done in industry and I see fully why they would fight tooth and nail. What can we as ground activists do get Obama to hear us that he must take Draconian measures and that he needs to clean his campaign of any money from Wall /street.

Have any suggestion, because screaming EUREKA is all fun and shit but that is step one we need to get up running to understand this huge campaign to stop the continued fraud and it needs to happen Soon.

2. I've wondered whether the President is "in on the cover up or is a patsy"
Black emphasized that the administration is terrified of what would happen if people knew how bad it really is ~ that they'd all run for the exits.

The President is in a terrible position, but the truth is the only way out imo.

4. President Obama has never struck me as a patsy but I do think he is getting some bad
information. Is there any way that Mill Moyers excerpt to him, I wonder?

...and Congressperson to take a look.
