Nobel Peace Prize Recipient To Award Old Hypocrite Medal Of Freedom For Most Successful Circle Jerk Execution In History
Yes, it's official. The whole has gone crazy. The rape and pillage of the middle class is now awarded with prizes and medals.
President Barack Obama will name Warren Buffet as one of fifteen winners of the 2010 Medal of Freedom, a White House official said on Wednesday.
Buffet, one of the world's most successful investors who has donated a vast chunk of his multibillion dollar fortune to charity, will receive the medal at a White House ceremony early next year. The award is the highest U.S. civilian honor.
Buffet is one of Obama's closest defenders in the business community and the president has sought his counsel dating back to the 2008 presidential campaign and since.

None of this shit means anything.
Who really gives a fuck if these butt-clowns give eachother fucking blowjobs much less bowling trophies.
Leave this kinda shit for people fucking magazine. IMHO.
I wanna see some real surpised Goldman Sachs faces stitched to soccer balls and left on Capitol steps.
I got everything needed except the banker.
Jeez... Am I spending too much time in Juarez?
That shit is starting to look like a solution to me.
How much does it cost to buy this Symbol of Freedom?
George Bush was bad , but obama is worst....
Ted Nugent for President in 2012
Absolutely. Bush had the wisdom of awarding the medal to such luminaries as Alan Greenspan, Este Lauder and Dave "Wendy's" Thomas. Damn I miss those days...
Hey, lay off Dave Thomas. He reminds me of my dad, and he grills a mean burger.
If some of our teenage.... "thrill seekers" really want to go out and get a thrill, let them go up into the northwest and let them tangle with a grizzly bear or polar bear or brown bear and get that effect... it will cleanse the soul
If you need thrills you could try this:

Climbing gave me thrills for years... Kept me out of trouble and in the higher intensity situations that I needed.
Never tried base jumping, and never will.
But Dean Potter is a sick, sick, sick man and I have followed his madness for years.
This guy demonstrates the human mind is capable of fear control beyond what most believe is possible.
"That was a mass delusion, reinforced by rapidly rising prices that discredited the few skeptics who warned of trouble. Delusions, whether about tulips or Internet stocks, produce bubbles. And when bubbles pop, they can generate waves of trouble that hit shores far from their origin. This bubble was a doozy and its pop was felt around the world."
Warren ? It's all better right ? F*CK Y*ou
Tell him Cee Lo ........ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pc0mxOXbWIU
"Throughout the last century the attachment of businessmen to free enterprise has weakened dramatically as they discovered they could demand--and receive--short-range advantages from the state. . . . I watched with incredulity as businessmen ran to the government in every crisis, whining for handouts or protection from the very competition that has made this system so productive.- Former Secretary of the Treasury William E. Simon, Secretary during the Nixon and Ford Administrations, 1974-1977.
The demise of free-market capitalsim and the rise of the central-planning economy is in full view now. Buffet's attachment to the state was transparent, but is now being fully condoned and even blessed with the nation's highest seal of approval.
2008-9 was the point of no return. Buffet and major Wall Street banks are now like China GSEs. Going forward this will only intensify as the government teat allows the parasites to suckle.
Thank you for the headline!
I am so glad to see someone calling Buffet out. Old liar...
Each and every day, the USA looks more and more like Argentina...
That nation also turns it's biggest grifters into heroes.

36 minutes to go. Anybody getting short here?
they're getting lazy......... almost down to 10 minutes & haven't even started the BIG GOOSE to another miracle finish....... was I the only one that saw that every fuckin' day?
well, shut my mouth, I only looked at the NUMBER, not the chart...been goosing since 3:30
I believe the principle in scripture is sound even if you are not deeply religious - that hypocrites blow a horn before them when going to make gifts of mercy.
These folks get the full value of every dollar with big dinners where they present a check the size of a semi - trailer for the press and to up-stage their peers.
And it must be getting tougher to find people to accept all these prizes if taking them associates you with murderers and criminals.
He accomplished so mush for a mere mortal. No more war and no more poverty. He deserves this medal dam it.
I'm sure he'll be sharing the stage that night with Lloyd Blankfien and Tony Hayward.
and the ghosts of Himmler, Goebbels, Göring...
Disgraceful.
Cool. Now he can ask Becky Quick to the prom.
All FASCIST regimes line up the butchers and thieves that got the dictators into power and hang big medals on them.
Don't you watch TV?
True
And meanwhile, in the real world, today I noticed a sign that I have not seen since 1983...
Commodity Food Today!
And I live in the bastion of Upper Middle Class'ness.
Party on! The water is fine and all is well in the land of Oz.
Wow.
Obama will pump the old fools limp cock with the left hand while inserting his right fist in the tax-payers ass. Cruising meets Midnight Cowboy

Nice visual.
all i wanna know is whether it's made out of gold or silver.
Gold painted Tungsten....
I'll be sleeping tonight and no doubt the images of Isabella Rosellini with a 6 foot long whale penis will appear in my dreams...
Thank you, ZH.
I hope not to have any ass pain in the morning...
In Honor of the Award Buffet should give the Government all of his gains from the Bailout to reduce the Debt that was created to help him out.
So Millions of Americans eat at Mc Donalds for Thanksgiving because their Tax Dollars went to prop up Buffet, while he enjoys himself at a lush Thanksgiving dinner. Which he of course is not paying for as he is celebrating at his Daughters house. Cheepskate.
And now he gets an award for taking away 3 Generations of Wealth from the American People from the Government Bailouts using Americans Money. He should be grateful not to the Government but on the backs of 3 Generations of Americans for helping him keep his Wealth while taking away any chance they have to acheve anything as the Taxes alone will keep them Poor.
So, Congradulaitons on his award and all of the Americans that lost.
Well this at least explains the mindless op-ed piece Buffett wrote which appeared yesterday in the New York Times:
http://www.nytimes.com/2010/11/17/opinion/17buffett.html
Next up for these pricks...self-bestowed sainthood. God help us. Oops, I forgot he's been awarded to his Lordship Lloyd Blankfein. Help me Jebuz!!!
HOPE & CHANGE? Not so much.
DOPE is STRANGE? Yup.

They always HONOR these OLD, GOVT MONEY TAKING, TEABAGGERS.
John Pierpont is a prime example.
Seriously did he dazzle Congress by taking the shaft and nuts... all at once?
The favors he and his firms got/get he had to have some serious talents.
Ol'Whiskers would nibble on anything for a buck.
just like I told you folks, HE WAS CORRECT! No "Double-Dip"!
It is defintley not coming now. Sorry doomers.
Get used to this recovery. Nothing is coming
dude -
please go back over to MarketFarce and spare us the idiot routine here at Zero...dont waste ur time or anyone else's...really, go away....
Hey, Cramer is always welcome at ZH!
Hey Dennis "the beaker" Kneale, did your show get cancelled again? Lots of time on your hands again I see.
Good piece written pulling down the Buffet facade over at FT Alphaville Blog.References to other works yet plenty of numbers and quotes to give credibilty to the criticisms made.

Warren is such a nice old crony, too.
In 2005, he said to get out of the USA, get out of the US dollar, and that bank re-insurance was a ticking time bomb waiting to go off -- and he was right.
Since Obama became president things are worse but he's been singing a different tune. In a brief moment of clarity in 2009, he said Obama's economic message was "muddled". Does Obama remember that one?
.
See what did I tell you! From my post earlier today:
"On top of Warren's accolades. The Chairman Mao Business School of Beijing has just announced that Hank Paulson and George Bush will jointly receive the Karl Marx Economic Freedom Award for 2010. This was based on their great work in ramming through TARP to bailout the TBTF banks in the US, thereby rescuing the US and Chinese economies.
Congratulations! This on top of Warren's letter and a best selling book - what a comeback!
Rumours are the new Congress is up for Marx'ie in 2011 based on their gallant efforts to rescue the real value of the US debt China holds. They are being applauded at the Mao school for their efforts to tweek Fed Mandates. We will see if they can pull it off - Bob Corker has his hopes high, as he has a book in the wings "How to Rescue the Economy - What I learned from Herbert Hoover". Good Luck!"
Oh wait that was the Karl Marx Economic Freedom Award for Bush and Paulson. Sorry - My Bad.
Next Up - Lloyd Blankfiend for the Medal of Honor. Doing God's Work.
An old ballbag who made climbed the ladder of success and tries his hardest to burn it behind him as he climbs in the window.

Tom Lehrer said that satire was dead when Kissinger won.
Uhhhhhh..... about that George Bush medal?
Why didn't he just promote Buffet to General of Economics? Isn't that how things are done in a Banana Republic?
If you believe Warren Buffet made his fortune by picking stocks well you believe in the truth fairy. He should have gone to Vegas and cleaned out the casinos. No honest person can pick stock winners and losers that well. Only insider trading, bribes, payoffs, and ties to the Fed net you billions from the crap shoot on Wall Street.
WOW. Someone tell Bob Prechter that negative social mood is peaking!
Medal of Fascism, more like.
ROFLMAO! You can't make this shit up...
