Three years ago, a very unhappy Larry Summers conceded that he would not become Fed Chair when he withdrew from the running to become Ben Bernanke's replacement on September 15, 2013, following some dramatic pressure by the press and numerous liberal economists. However, we now know that that was only the most recent of Larry's disappointments. According to one of the Podesta emails released today, it appears that America was this close to having Larry Summers as the appointed replacement to Hank Paulson as Treasury Secretary by the Obama administration in 2009. However, that did not happen as a result of what may have been a letter from the late powerful corporate lawyer Bob Pirie, founder of Skadden Arps, who on November 7, 2008 wrote an email to John Podesta by way of Harold Ickes, explaining why Obama should pick Tim Geithner or Paul Volcker, and not Larry Summers.
From the leaked Podesta email:
Harold would you be kind enough to forward this to John Podesta? He must be very busy and perhaps this is a better way of communicating than via the phone. give a yell when you are coming this way. Bob Dear John, Although still in a state of euphoria over the results on Tuesday, I am concerned that the appointment for Treasury Secretary offers either a great opportunity or a lost one or in one case would create a future problem.
The latter, obviously, is Larry Summers who is an extra bright version of Donald Rumsfeld, arrogantly unpleasant to his subordinates, dismissive to his equals and pandering to his superiors. I spent some time with Neil Rudenstine on Wednesday, and he would use even stronger terms and would be happy to talk to anyone on the subject.
On a positive note, I think the one person with global credibility is Paul Volcker and credibility is as useful a currency as cash for addressing our problems and perhaps even rarer. He was at my house for election eve and did not object to my forwarding his name, but, properly, will not seek it directly.
The answer to the age issue, putting aside that he is demonstrably very active, would be to appoint Tim Geithner as deputy with the clear understanding, but not commitment, that he would succeed in a year or two. Geithner was at my house for dinner last spring with Paul, Felix, Henry Kissinger and a few others to discuss the situation as it then existed, and I was impressed with him, but he seemed a little young (that may be a reflection on me not him) so a few years of seasoning would not be a bad thing. I have talked to John Whitehead, Felix Rohatyn and Joe Flom about this, and they have authorized me to say that they fully support it.
Three months later, on January 26, Tim Geithner was was appointed US Treasury Secretary.
Who was Bob Pirie and why did his opinion matter? "During the 1960s and early 1970s Pirie was associated with law firms in Boston. His work for the Harold Hughes election campaign during this time landed him on the master list of Nixon political opponents." And some more from his NYT obituary:
He had been involved in mergers and acquisitions while practicing at Gaston, Snow, Motley & Holt in Boston in the early 1970s when he joined forces in a hostile takeover with Joseph Flom, a founder of the powerful New York firm Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom. Mr. Pirie developed into an aggressive mergers-and-acquisitions lawyer, spending much of his time in New York. In his book “Skadden: Power, Money, and the Rise of a Legal Empire” (1993), Lincoln Caplan described Mr. Pirie as “an iconoclast.”Mr. Caplan wrote:
“A lawyer who worked with him said, ‘He bulls his way through everything in a larger-than-life way, and he knows he’s doing it. He affects a kind of entitlement, with a confidence and a flair that enable him to pull it off.’ ”
Mr. Pirie was a partner at the firm from 1973 until 1982, when he was named president and chief executive of Rothschild Inc., the New York investment banking arm of the Rothschild family. Among the deals he was involved in at Rothschild were the media mogul Robert Maxwell’s takeover of the publishing company Macmillan and James Goldsmith’s of the paper giant Crown Zellerbach.
“Bob Pirie is a man with green fingers who knows how to make money,” David de Rothschild, head of the Rothschild bank in Paris, said at the time.
Mr. Pirie later became senior managing director of Bear Stearns & Company and vice chairman of investment banking at SG Cowen Securities.
We find it amusing, and ironic, that the American people may owe a career lawyer/banker and ex-Rothschildian a favor for preventing Larry Summers from becoming Obama's Treasury Secretary.




" arrogantly unpleasant to his subordinates, dismissive to his equals and pandering to his superiors"
In other words he is a dick. Better suited for Hilary campaign manager
Words like dick or douchebag are far too kind for the likes of Larry Summers.
Larry is a total fucking asshole of the highest order.
Jabba the Hutt Summers has been directly linked to the manipulation and suppression of the gold market as well.
He is disgusting, lying, big fat slob.
Finally, an accurate assessment of Larry Sanders-
Pity they can't give one of Hillary....
Another word which should be included in the assessment of Summers: incompetent, not that competence matters for .Gov "service". He lost $9 Billion of Harvard Endowment funds by faulty investments and is a major hold-out in support of Keynsian economics, believing that "moar" is needed. Just a little bit "moar" and it will all be OK.
As well as being an arrogant asshole.
" Summers is arrogantly unpleasant to his subordinates, dismissive to his equals and pandering to his superiors."
I WONDER why.

Hey toro, previously mofio then santafe then Aristotle of Greece then Gargoyle then bleu then oops then lance-a-lot then most recently Loftie.
You are a serial spammer and a serial pain in the ass. Might I politely suggest that you go fuck yourself? And get a life.
PS. You might have noticed that my attempt to expose you for what you are is always the same. That’s because your Spam is always the same (Using fake links to your BS site which has no connection to your comments; which are deliberately dramatic to mislead people into responding or clicking on the fake link) so it seems only fair that my exposure of your crap should also always be the same. An eye for an eye.
Summers is on the board of Premise, the company behind the false Assange smears.
David Soloff, the head of this shady outfit, threatened the internet sleuths on reddit that connected his company to Hilllary (C)linton and Soros that "we control all the drones"

" arrogantly unpleasant to his subordinates, dismissive to his equals and pandering to his superiors"
This was the way to get ahead at Goldman:
Lick what is above you, kick what is below.
A dick. Right. So howcum he was not a shoo-in to be appointed?
Prolly the only good decision the Magic Negro ever made.
Gietner(SP) can not use used in the same sentence as the right decision. Volker would have been a closer to right decision. He would have put things in order so that the child would not fuck them up too bad.
Obama did NOT decide anything. Obama did exactly as he was TOLD to.
Certain people gave him lists from which choices were to be made, and certain other people TOLD Obama EXACTLY who to employ and in what capacity based exclusively on those lists.
THAT is the whole point of the article.
I'd say that without a doubt the "teller" was Valerie. Now, who gave her the list, I wonder?
Shoulda' been Volcker....but it wouldn't have made any difference.. one drop of pure H2O in a cesspool...
Paul would not necessarily have done as commanded, hence he was not offered the position.
IMHO, Volker would have engineered a very different financial system rescue and several 'TBTF' institutions would not exist -including GS, members of which ( cough AJ Cohen cough ) Volker seems to actually detest personally...
Volcker too smart
They're all banksters including Volcker.
The privately owned central banking system is a criminal Ponzi theft scam.
It is un-Constitutional.
Some of the thieves would prefer to bleed the victim slowly, rather than quickly.
In the end, the parasites still kill their victims.
But the victims tend to notice it more when done quickly.
The success of their propaganda is obvious. People hero worship those who conned them.
I'm trying to imagine a world where Paul Volker was TS for the past 8 years. Missed opportunities indeed.
Paul Volker admitted that the worst mistake he made, was not suppresssing the price of gold. Understand that his loyalties do not lie with the public but with the masters of the fiat system. I suggest you read Usury in Christendom subtitled The Mortal Sin That Was and Is Not Now. This book is available on amazon. In this book you can read of the machinations of the elite families whose members have made up the bishops and cardinals of the church. They convened a council of the cardinals and with the blessing of the pope came to a decision that the term usury had been misinterpreted and that the true definition was "the charging of exorbitant interest ". Once again inbred sociopaths ignoring the wisdom of the sages of old. If George W. Bush had been around at the time I am sure he would have proclaimed " Heck of a Job Guido".
Nothing about these leaks smells good. All just a bunch of assholes and sycophants jostling for fake power. I hope there is enough piano wire for all these fuckers.
Pirie worked for Rothschild. Hillary regularly communicated with "Lady" Rothschild as reflected in some of the earlier email releases. How many people snickered at us when we said the Rothschild family is pulling major strings behind the scenes. Another conspiracy theory becomes conspiracy fact.
Kill the bankers. They are the terrorist in 10,000 dollar suits
Canada has always been under the domination of the international bankers. Canada never had any revolution or resistance which had any political significance. Of course, it was Prime Minister Trudeau I that agreed to obey the international bankers totally, since 1974, such that all levels of Canadian governments since then have incurred literally several trillion dollars of interest payments to banks that made that "money" out of nothing as debts to begin with. Therefore, it is not a surprise that Prime Minister Trudeau II is another banker puppet, operating inside a world where the vast majority of Canadian muppets do not notice those social facts, but only only notice the relatively trivial facts that the mass media discuss ... Naturally, within that historical context, Larry Summers was one of the main influences upon the current Liberal Government of Canada agreeing to go even more whole hog in debt to private banks:

Why Justin Trudeau’s new guiding light could have a dramatic impact on Canadian public policy
By John Ivison, February 21, 2014.
Justin Trudeau was billed as the main event on opening night at the Liberal Party convention but the most important speaker was the bombastic American economist who preceded him.
Larry Summers is a former chief economist to the World Bank; ex-Secretary of the Treasury; and an economic advisor to two Democratic presidents.
He is now the intellectual guiding light for Mr. Trudeau and his key advisors – a development that may have a dramatic impact on Canadian public policy, given the views on debt and deficits he espoused Thursday.
The Liberal camp appears to have bought into Mr. Summers views on “secular stagnation” – the idea that Japanese style economic torpor is the new normal in North America.
Mr. Summers believes that market mechanisms to ensure full employment and strong growth have failed, so governments must adopt what he calls “unconventional policy support” – juicing demand with “productive investment”.
“To start, this means ending the disastrous trend towards less and less government spending and employment each year and taking advantage of the current period of slack to renew and build out our infrastructure,” he wrote last month.
Raising demand would mean seeking to spur private spending – for example, governments could use regulation to require rapid replacement of coal-fired power plants, thereby attracting private investment.
“We have a moral obligation to our children not to allow infrastructure to decay because of a decade of neglect,” he told Liberals in Montreal. “Let’s worry about paper financial deficits. But let’s also worry about infrastructure and education deficits.”
This is exactly the approach that Mr. Trudeau hinted at in the seven minute video that appeared on the Liberal.ca website earlier this week, in which he said that Canada’s debt to GDP ratios have come down in recent years and now it’s time for Ottawa to “step up”.
But if the Liberal Party of Canada is now going to propose that deficits and debt are merely “paper” problems that are constraining growth, it is going to have to back away from decades of economic orthodoxy first propounded in government by….er, the Liberal Party of Canada.
Paul Martin was the “deficit slayer” who said Canada was caught in a trap of its own making – “a vicious circle in which chronic deficits contributed to economic lethargy, which in turn contributed to even higher deficits and then greater malaise.”
It is going to require extremely adept political leadership from Mr. Trudeau to convince voters to shift from their current zero tolerance attitude toward deficits and piling on more debt. ...
__________________________
After the financial crises in 2008, the former Conservative Party Government of Canada transferred more than $100 billion to private banks, by various means, resulting in the Canadian government going from a predicted modest surplus, to an announced deficit of about $50 billion. How and why that happened was barely mentioned by the Canadian mass media, and did NOT become an election issue. In general, it is politically impossible to imagine how any countries within the heart of the Anglo-American (Zionist) Empire, such as the USA or Canada, could do anything effective to stop being screwed by the international bankers, due to the overwhelming degree to which the public schools and mass media continue to almost totally get away with massive LIES BY OMISSION regarding how the monetary and taxation systems really work.
Larry Summers was instrumental in setting up the events that enabled the financial crises in 2008 to develop. He may have thereby lost some opportunities to continue to do that within the USA, however, he continued to be able to influence the government of Canada to agree to go deeper into debt to the bankers, which is always what the bankers obviously conspire to do, and ACTUALLY DO!
P.S.
The problem with various "kill the bankers" notions are that when conditions deteriorated to the degree to which any of those murders happened, then the bankers would be mass murdering proportionately more orders of magnitude of other people, than the number of bankers who were killed.
Unless enough people were to be able and willing to understand how and why MONEY IS MEASUREMENT BACKED BY MURDER, they would still not understand the bankers, and therefore, would not respond any better to the bankers' CONTROL FRAUDS than they do now. In my view, the glib comments regarding "kill the bankers" made on Zero Hedge are pathetically out of touch with the realities regarding globalized electronic frauds, backed by the threat of force from atomic weapons. Indeed, the majority of the content published on Zero Hedge continues to think in the same ways which were developed to superficially analyze and respond to the good old days, where there were only paper "money" frauds, backed by gunpowder weapons ...
Notice how you get a bunch of upvotes when you stay on the fucking thread, Radical Marijuana? ;)
I upvoted you so don't shoot the messenger, eh.
:)'
Yes, it was a great post and he only said "money is measurement backed by murder" once.
IMO it's much simpler than that.
The banksters are counterfeiters who have happened to hire people (politicians) to fool the population into turning over real wealth and labor for the counterfeit. Bankers don't actually kill anyone. Are you kidding ? Have you looked at Greenspan, Bernanke, and Yellen ? They are feeble and no physical threat to anyone. It's a con game & they fool their hired enforcers into accepting the counterfeit for oppressing their own countrymen.
So the whole problem is a matter of perception. All the people need to do is wake the Hell up.They are trapped in a mental 'prison' that only appears to be real.
" It is well enough that people of the nation do not understand our banking and monetary system, for if they did, I believe there would be a revolution before tomorrow morning. " - Henry Ford
Yes, the current crop of central bankers do NOT personally kill anyone directly.
However, remember this analysis:
There are no reasonable doubts about the basic history of
the currently established systems of public governments
enforcing frauds by private banks
as described by Carroll Quigley:
"... powers of financial capitalism had another far-reaching goal, nothing less than to create a world system of financial control in private hands able to dominate the political system of each country and the economy of the world as a whole ... to be controlled in a feudalist fashion by the central banks of the world acting in concert, by secret agreements. ... The apex of the system was to be the Bank for International Settlements in Basel, Switzerland, a private bank owned and controlled by the world’s central banks which were themselves private corporations. ... It must not be felt that the heads of the world's chief central banks were themselves substantive powers in world finance. They were not. Rather they were the technicians and agents of the dominant investment bankers of their own countries, who had raised them up, and who were perfectly capable of throwing them down. The substantive financial powers of the world were in the hands of these investment bankers who remained largely behind the scenes in their own unincorporated private banks. These formed a system of international cooperation and national dominance which was more private, more powerful, and more secret than that of their agents in the central banks."
The most powerful international bankers are NOT public figures. However, they appear to have been able and willing to pay for the assassination of those relatively successful politicians who could not otherwise be bribed or intimidated in order to become the puppets of the banksters. Moreover, their applications of the methods of organized crime, which were obviously being applied to other countries for a long time, are now coming home:
http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2016-10-03/more-confessions-economic-hit-man-time-they’re-coming-your-democracy
More Confessions Of An Economic Hit Man: "This Time, They’re Coming For Your Democracy"
"...Perkins has just reissued his book with major updates. The basic premise of the book remains the same, but the update shows how the economic hit man approach has evolved in the last 12 years. Among other things, U.S. cities are now on the target list. The combination of debt, enforced austerity, underinvestment, privatization, and the undermining of democratically elected governments is now happening here" ... "Things have just gotten so much worse in the last 12 years since the first Confessions was written. Economic hit men and jackals have expanded tremendously, including the United States and Europe. Back in my day we were pretty much limited to what we called the third world, or economically developing countries, but now it’s everywhere. And in fact, the cancer of the corporate empire has metastasized into what I would call a failed global death economy. This is an economy that’s based on destroying the very resources upon which it depends, and upon the military. It’s become totally global, and it’s a failure."
OF COURSE, THE OVERALL SITUATION IS SIMILAR IN CANADA.
HOWEVER, CANADIAN CITIZENS ARE EVEN MORE INSOUCIANT,
AND GENERALLY THINK AND ACT AS WORSE POLITICAL IDIOTS,
& the world as a whole is understandably still worse than Canada:

The IMF Sounds An Alarm As
Global Debt Hits A Record $152 Trillion Or 225% Of World GDP
"If history shows anything, it is that there’s no better way to justify relations founded on violence, to make such relations seem moral, than by reframing them in the language of debt — above all, because it immediately makes it seem that it’s the victim who’s doing something wrong."
— David Graerber
Overall, I agreed with your summary, HardAssets, EXCEPT I see no good grounds to expect that enough people will "wake the Hell up," because the "mental prison" they are trapped within is as bad as I recently summarized in replies under these articles:
http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2016-10-17/brics-putin-secretly-aligned-west-seek-aggressive-globalism
BRICS, Putin Secretly Aligned With West, Seek Aggressive Globalism
http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2016-10-19/east-vs-west-division-about-dollar-not-nuclear-war
East Vs. West Division Is About The Dollar - Not Nuclear War
While it may be difficult to imagine someone like Larry Summers being a competent assassin, it is not too difficult to imagine how people who have accumulated very large amounts of Hard Assets, and therefore, already practically operate their own mercenary forces, would be able to pay professionals to engage in the murders that they were directed to execute. Of course, the methods of organized crime only include murder as their most extreme forms, while the ocassional murder then is enough to provide an example which continues to work to effectively intimidate others to accept bribes from the various economic hit men, rather than then become the target of the jackals, as John Perkins describes.
"Almost everyone was taught that money was invented to replace the messy business of barter. … But ... anthropologist David Graeber, and other experts on the history of money, say that this is a myth. Instead, they say that money was invented to finance war, and to keep score while armies went about pillaging and looting."
The police and other armed forces are paid with the "money" that their enforcement gives value to. Furthermore, they are also promised to be paid with that "money" in the form of their pensions, etc. ... Overall, the money system pays for the murder system, and then the murder system backs up the money system. The deeper philosophical issues are that it is NOT possible to stop organized crime from existing, and therefore, it is NOT possible to stop governments from developing as the biggest forms of organized crime, dominated by the best organized gangs of criminals. Human beings necessarily live through systems of more or less organized lies operating robberies. The only actually possible changes are changes in the dynamic equilibria of those systems. Any real radical revolution could not do anything more than become some expression of such changes in the systems of organized lies operating robberies, which were forced to happen by circumstances which the previous systems generated.
It would be theoretically possible to develop better organized crime systems, IF enough people understood how and why those things must work. However, at the present time, there are way too few people who are able and willing to develop better understanding of the ways that frauds are enforced, although more and more people are noticing that those are becoming exponentially more fraudulent, and hence, are somewhat waking up about that ... BUT, so far, only quite superficially so ... In my opinion, that entrenched system that Larry Summers worked for has to MADLY destroy itself first, in order to conditions to deteriorate enough to force changes ...
While I agree with the quote you gave from Henry Ford, there are no good grounds to expect that enough people could possibly agree upon what to do after such a revolution, given that there was some original political miracle that enough people understood enough how the monetary and taxation systems really worked, as legalized counterfeiting that was screwing almost everyone, while benefiting only a tiny minority. At the present time, to the degree that the "money" still controls people, it is extremely difficult to imagine any feasible ways that enough people could overcome themselves being controlled in those ways.
Rather, it is more feasible to imagine a quote attributed to Jay Gould:
"I can hire one half of the working class to kill the other half."
What is Canada?
Canadian Identity is primarily based upon the territory on the geography of planet Earth that is perceived by human beings as "Canada." However, that geographical territory existed long before the country called "Canada," and would probably exist long after there is no such country anymore. The secondary meaning of the Canadian Identity are the psychological and political characteristics of the people who are living in the physical territory they call "Canada." That secondary meaning of the Canadian Identity was the result of thousands of years of the history of Neolithic Civilization, which spread out its psychological and political characteristics from where it mostly originated in the Middle Eastern areas, such as Egypt and Mesopotamia, through the history of Europe, and then sailed to North America, to create colonies.
The original Canadian Identity of the first immigrants, who had lived in North America for tens of thousands of years before the European invasions, was mostly wiped out, and the survivors of that assimilated into the Neolithic Civilization systems that were brought by the French and British, etc. ... There is barely any reality remaining to any original Canadian Identity of the survivors of those genocides and assimilations, due to the degree the survivors were almost totally forced to assimilate into the dominate psychological and political systems that the European invasions which established colonies made and maintained. (Similarly, the original Viking colonies in Canada were totally wiped out, and so, those no longer exist.)
For a while, the new Canadian Identities of the French and British colonies were relatively coherent cultures, regarding which one could say that those were different Canadian Identities. However, those have subsequently been deluged by invasions of immigrants from all over the world, such that there is barely any significant meaning remaining to refer to as "the" Canadian Identity. About the only thing that "Canadians" still universally share is the Canadian monetary system. However, that system is almost totally integrated into a globalized system, such that referring to "Canadian money" is mostly another misleading symbol, asserted within the context of superficial analyses.
The background to the developments of Canadian civilization were the ways that natural selection was internalized as human intelligence, and then that intelligence was applied to the most important selection pressures, which were other groups of people. That resulted in the history of warfare, which was organized crime on larger and larger scales, based upon backing up deceits with destructions. The surviving War Kings made the sovereign states, and those were the source of the original French and British colonies in North America. Those colonies were miniature versions of the social pyramid systems that originally developed in the Middle Eastern and European areas.
Human beings and civilization operate as entropic pumps of environmental energy flows, which necessarily match the principles and methods of organized crime, because the death controls in general, and the murder systems in particular, are the central controls of everything else. However, the nature of those controls drive intense paradoxes, which manifest as sets of consistent contradictions, because the most socially successful murder systems are the most deceitful and treacherous, while around that success there accrete layers of controlled opposition groups, such as the publicly significant religions and ideologies, which agree to stay within the same frame of reference of false fundamental dichotomies and the related impossible ideals, originally developed to enable professional hypocrites to operate their systems of organized lies and robberies, in ways whereby the biggest and best organized gangs of criminals were able to deny that they are actually doing that.
The long history of being able to back up lies with violence, becoming more sophisticated and integrated systems of legalized lies, backed by legalized violence, was the primary theme of the development of the Canadian Identity as psychological and political manifestations. The most important of those have become the ways that the public government of Canada enforces the frauds by private banks, which are ways that Canadian money participates in a globalized privatization of the public monetary and taxation systems. As information became more important than power, the sovereign states set up by the surviving War Kings were more and more controlled by the Fraud Kings, who were the international bankers, the best organized gangsters, the banksters, that control the biggest forms of organized crime, which are governments. Civilization developed as systems of more or less organized lies operating robberies, and those have become the symbolic robberies achieved through public governments enforcing frauds by private banks. Therefore, the primary psychological and political manifestations of the Canadian Identity are the public presentations of the best available professional liars and immaculate hypocrites, who have adapted to live inside of systems based upon enforcing frauds.
From the psychological and political perspectives, there is almost nothing else but the central core of organized crime, the bankster dominated governments, surrounded by layers of controlled opposition groups, all of which stay within taking almost completely for granted the dualities of false fundamental dichotomies, and the related impossible ideals. Since Neolithic Civilization was based upon enforcing frauds, so too is the Canadian Identity the result of the European invasions of the geographical area called "Canada." Subsequently, the invasive immigrations from all over the world have mixed up the Canadian Identity to the point where there is no longer any coherent Canadian Identity. About the only thing that everyone continues to share is the Canadian money. However, that Canadian money is a system wherein money is measurement backed by murder (i.e., the debt controls depend upon the death controls), which combined money/murder system is operated by professional hypocrites, which do not admit and address the ways that public money supplies are created out of nothing as debts, while those frauds are enforced by the powers of the government, while that is integrated into globalized systems based upon overall similar ways that frauds are enforced.
The original Canadian Identity was mostly colonialism, (now degenerating into neofeudalism.) The overall trends of globalized privatization have been making more and more of a mockery out of any residual Canadian Identity. Since Canada has a relative abundance of natural resources available to be strip-mined, compared to the size of the Canadian population, Canada is one of the few countries in the world left where Neolithic Civilization continues to appear to make sense, at least in the short to medium terms. However, the bigger picture is that Neolithic Civilization has become runaway criminal insanities, based upon the excessive successfulness of controlling that civilization through integrated systems of legalized lies, backed by legalized violence. That excessive successfulness of controlling civilization through applications of the principles and methods of organized crime is more and more resulting in a criminally insane civilization.
Since Neolithic Civilization was always based upon enforcing frauds, so too is the Canadian Identity. It is difficult to disentangle the ways that being able to successfully enforce frauds drives psychological and political systems to have inverted and perverted relationships to the laws of nature. While the physical territory of Canada exists according the the laws of nature, the psychological and political manifestations of the laws of nature through human beings and civilization results in those becoming triumphant organized crime, which is most triumphant by becoming the most dishonest it can possibly be. The only connections between the laws of nature and the laws of men are the abilities to back up lies with violence, through the development of integrated systems of legalized lies, backed by legalized violence, whereby governments became the biggest forms of organized crime, controlled by the best organized gangs of criminals. Those systems are based upon being able to enforce frauds, in ways that drive the vast majority of people, who have adapted to live inside those systems, for generation after generation, to develop attitudes based upon the maximum possible willful blindness towards the principle of the conservation of energy, along with the maximum possible absurdly backward misunderstanding of the concept of entropy.
Since Neolithic Civilization, and then Canadian civilization, were based upon being able to back up lies with violence, the degree to which the Canadian Identity is promoted by professional hypocrites can barely be exaggerated: the central characteristic of Canadian Identity is professional hypocrisy.
It's the greatest country in the world, but we live next to a dysfunctional country to the south that has an inferiority complex so they are always acting out their intrapsychic psychopathology on other countries, and their government lives in denial. They consume much heroin & cocaine to ameliorate their psychopathology, but we all know where all that self medication is getting them. Hell even the water that they now drink has traces of Cocaine & pharmaceuticals in it. They want more money to buy more Cocaine, but they are conflicted about launching thermonuclear hot war to get it. Ma & Pa Kettle they ain't, unfortunately.
Anywho....greatest country with hosers everywhere fighting gubbermint to smoke more weed, that's CANADA.
Women belong in the bedroom and the kitchen, not in poliical office or the corporate boardroom.
Summers and I sort of agree on this.
And you belong outside digging ditches and laying asphalt.
Got anything that involves pitchforks and torches?
So, Skadden, Goldman and Lazard picked the Treasury Secretary? Business as usual...
Inbred Tribesmen infighting.
Move along now.
TIGHTEN THE NOOSE ON THE MOTHERFUCKERS
Isn't it interesting how we are finding out that the top management/lawyers with the Rothchilds and Citi basically told Obama who would comprise his cabinet?
-As if Barack is a mere subordinate or puppet dutifully taking orders from these international banksters who own him...
I'm expecting an even more interesting cache of emails to/from BoBo and other bankster/hedgie big swinging dicks any moment now...
Methinks BoBo will not be collecting unemployment in February.
We are not through with him yet cause rodent Clinton will prolly make him treasury head.
Larrys place in the guillotine list is well earned.
Any fuckheads who make up the "Committee to save the world" deserve to be in Chapter one of the "Great Beheading, the cleansing of Political and Financial manipilation in the US and the world
"
Jews dissing Jews
On a positive note, I think the one person with global credibility is Paul Volcker and credibility IS AS USEFUL A CURRENCY AS CASH for addressing our problems and perhaps even rarer.
Hey.....I thought cash was evil?
Slammed Donald Rumsfeld, too.
So sick of these scumbags who run the show.
Jews are 2.5% of the pop.
Apart from appointing the 3rd Jew in a row to chair the Fed, and having nominated a Jew for the SCOTUS (currently held up but by all accounts a reasonable choice) which would make it 4 Jews out of 9 slots (Hillary will likely create a Jewish majority on the SC.... )
... During Obama's presidency Jews have headed, sometimes twice in a row, IRS, FDIC, CBO, NED, CFTC, office of the trade rep, Commerce, Treasury (INCLUDING THE DEPUTY AND ALL 3 UNDERSECS at one point!!!!!!!!!!!!), sec, office mgmt and budget, council of economic advisors, national economic counsel, and basically anything having to do with money and 'terror.'
That is, in a word, refuckingdiculous... And one may be assured the over-representation, as with Ivy League admissions, comes at the expense of better qualified Asians and non-Jewish whites.
No group, especially one which is in large part loyal to a foreign power and highly ethnocentric/ethnonepotistic - REGARDLESS of the genes or memes attendant to such a group- should have so much power over the government.
And media.
The first step is admitting we have a problem.
A very familiar one.
