Bank of America's Dead Drop To Rick Perry: "We Will Help You Out"
Should we be surprised, frightened, disgusted or simply say "we knew it", that in the informal mixer just after Texas Governor and Republican presidential candidate Rick Perry spoke at a Politics and Eggs breakfast in Bedford, New Hampshire, an unknown gentlemen approaches a casual Perry like an Ian Flemming character, and proceeds to dead drop the following: "Bank of America... We will help you out"... and silently moves on. At least we know now who is funding what, and whose interests potential future president Perry will be paid to defend.
Fast forward to precisely 40 minutes into the blow clip (full event can be found here).
And for those who believe the man is a plant, we believe it is James Mahoney, Director of Public Policy for BoA. You can see a photo of him here. He's on the board of directors for the New England Council, the sponsors of yesterday's Politics and Eggs breakfast.
Naturally, we would be delighted for Bank of America to refute this assumption.

That is the most depressing thing I've read in a long time. Gee thanks.

Hope them damn revolutionaries are watching the airports in time.
When I was a boy, growing up in the State of Michigan, Richard Headlee ran for governor. Unemployment was high at the time... everyone was concerned about jobs. His campaign slogan: Dick Headlee for Jobs. True story.

Damn. Ron Paul sure is good at infiltrating banks, getting people on the BofA payroll, and then seeding them into Rick Perry's fundraiser.

We need a sniper with pancreatic cancer who wants to make something for his family and do a service for his country.
This is the way to get a cure for pancreatic cancer.
We've had the cure for a while now. Check it out.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H0ibsoqjPac
is it necessary to be terminal and trained as a sniper or can anyone volunteer for this service?
Sorry, too many targets for one man to handle.
I am a Texas Republican telling everyone who will listen that Rick Perry is an absolute fool. He is commonly known around Texas as "Governor Good Hair".
If he wins go long on hair spray!

Obviously several different James Mahoney's on that page including one working for the Koch Bros. Our BAC buddy here seems to like Chris Dodd.
And Perry does not even go to a back room with the BAC guy! Huh!
Not yet. But if he decides to trust one of the primary dealers while keeping up the anti-Fed rhetoric, he'll end up in the backroom on his knees soon enough.
Hey Moynihan, please let me show you how I can eat a corndog....
In fairness it's hard to service BofA when you still have Goldman's phallus in his mouth.
Maybe not if he learned a lesson from the people who worked at his previous investments:

Speaking of that syphilitic cock, http://www.truth-out.org/goldman-sachs-vp-changed-his-name-now-advances-...
WOW... People need to read this and share this. What an article. He changed his friggen name! Pyschopaths.... all of them.
His face is soooo hitable, I want to smack the smug right off of it, drag my nails over it. Damn these bastards. Damn, damn, damn.
The corruption runs so deep. They don't even try to hide their criminality anymore. It permeates every fiber of government from bottom to top. An honest man or woman would not last long in that environment or would be ostracized to ineffectual status on issues of any import. There is no saving this sinking body. It has gassed, floated to the top, popped and is going down for the last time like so much crab chow. Bring on the reset!
exactly, it's completely embraced now like the final days of the empire. Lets all puke together, then grab the pitchforks.
Just ask Brooksly Born how far "honesty" gets you in DC?
All its going to take is for someone to walk up to the front door and kick it in without knocking first! That someone is Ron Paul. If not him - then who? Who will stand for the people against this corrupted gang? Lord help America if Ron Paul is not elected president, because the country will enter that long night.
Gold and silver to Ron Paul: "We will help you out."
Ron Paul money bomb tomorrow

OT: Tyler, thanks for finally allowing me access to the top-secret "active traders fightroom" of ZH, it has helped my intraday performance immensely and is keeping the personnel department here at Goldman off my back. Since your ES long call at 9.32am this morning, we have already accumulated 40.2% intraday profit on our 50:1 leveraged ES long. Thanks also for sending Robo over to us, he seems to be blending in very well over here.
hehe
And the active traders fightroom thanks you for ditching the tits.
Sigh, I miss those beauties!
Rick Perry is a consummate insider who is merely exploiting the tea party movement for his own shrewd political ends. He was instrumental in the development of the Trans-Texas Corridor, part of the CFR’s plan to build a “North American Community.” He was at the center of a plan to privatize Texas Utilities and sell them off to global investment firms, including the bankster outfits Goldman Sachs and Credit Suisse First Boston (see Aaron Dykes, Gov. Perry Summoned to Bilderberg While Insider Trading Charges Mount in Related Texas Buyout). He also advocated subjecting Texans to the HPV vaccine. yada yada yada , Research Sheeple!!! “The NAFTA ’superhighway’ linking Mexico, the U.S. and Canada is already underway. A Texas legislator tried to stop this massive mile-wide structure, but Texas Gov. Rick Perry vetoed the bill. The governor is a Bilderberger with the same CFR viewpoint,” Don Snyder wrote for the Napa Valley Register. Rick Perry attended the Bilderberg Group meeting in Istanbul, Turkey, in 2007. “Robert Black, the governor’s press secretary, said the governor was invited to attend and speak about state-federal relations,” the Dallas Morning News reported on May 31, 2007. It should be noted that state governors are often invited to Bilderberg meetings to be groomed for the presidency, as Bill Clinton was groomed at the Bilderberg meeting in 1991 held at Baden-Baden, Germany.
and you left out that he is an all around prick.
also...fast tracking 11 (I think that was the number) new power plants bypassing affected citizen/public input was another showing of his true facist spots.
“The NAFTA ’superhighway’ linking Mexico, the U.S. and Canada is already underway. A Texas legislator tried to stop this massive mile-wide structure, but Texas Gov. Rick Perry vetoed the bill.
You are such a bull-shit fucking liar.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trans-Texas_Corridor
Perry backed off the TTC when it was apparent the people of Texas did not want it.
In 2011, the Texas Legislature formally canceled the Trans-Texas Corridor.
It is so freaking unbelievable that all these morons immediately assume that Perry had anything to do with this OBVIOUS plant trying to embarrass Perry.
Yeah, like the local town was all out of private conference rooms lol. Wake up people and stop being so damned paranoid and perfectionist. And BoA must be so happy that Perry wants to turn off the QE spicket to the Wall Street banks, yeah, right.
We will never have a perfect President becaus eonly imperfect people can possiibly get elected. All you can hope to do is make sure the bastard in the WH is YOUR bastared. Thats about all there is to it.
According to this the S&P 500 to Gold ratio bottomed in 1981...if we reached the same bottom, gold could hit $7250 or S&P 500 could hit 290.

I will help him out, too...which way did he come in?!
I want to know who that BAC douche bag is!!!
Yes, that's the $64K question - who was this "alleged" BOA individual - and how did his "drive by" comment get picked up like this? I don't know squat about Perry - but I'm from IL and know that Obama and "friends" will stoop to just about any level to promote themselves and destroy others. Just saying - look before you leap on this one!

I find it amazing that a lot of regular posters here who believe themselves to be the last word on many a subject, may be falling victim to a junior high-school tactic. Just saying...
the corndog incident must've made quite the impression...
Blow clip! LOL
At the rate bank of America is going, they will be bankrupt by the time the elections take place, and hopefully Perry will be exposed for the sham he is.
http://silverliberationarmy.blogspot.com/
B of A pays in advance dude. I'm sure funds have already been set aside in some offshore account.
Just consider this to be an advance payment on future bailouts. The banksters use the shotgum approach. They back all viable candidates initially. Which means Ron Paul is not getting a visit from Ian Fleming.
I call plant! BAC trying to discredit the candidate they want to lose. Ron Paul next.
Are you kidding me? Perry is the ideal bankster candidate. He pays lipservice in vague platitudes that follow the political wind of the population, while making sure those same targets of his forked tongue are comforted in their despotic ways.
Case in point -
The debt of the state of Texas is out of control. According to usdebtclock.org, the debt to GDP ratio in Texas is 22.9% and the debt per citizen is $ 10,645. In California (a total financial basket case), the debt to GDP ratio is just 18.7% and the debt per citizen is only $ 9932.
Who do you think makes the most money off of increased public debt? I have a clue for you. _ANKSTERS
For instance, according to The Bond Buyer in June of 2010 - "The Texas Transportation Commission is preparing a record $1.5 billion bond issue under the voter-approved program known as Proposition 14 that dedicates fuel taxes and vehicle fees toward highway construction.
The deal will include taxable Build America Bonds and tax-exempt revenue bonds in a combination to be determined before pricing the week of July 26.
Financial adviser RBC Capital Markets is working with the TTC and lead manager Goldman, Sachs & Co."
Goldman. Go figure. Fuck Rick Perry and fuck his cronies.
Yes... I can't wait until these numbers and their growth rate during his tenure are spun in public...
No spin needed. Perry will just ignore - http://www.economist.com/blogs/democracyinamerica/2011/08/iowa-2012
As will the MSM.
Did you catch Jon Stewart doing a thing on Perry on Wed., fucking hilarious...
I didn't. My family and I thought the extreme thunderstorm was worth watch. I'll go find it.
if it was the same thunderstorm that i watched, it was truly magnificent indeed.
There are literally endless possibilities. That's the challenge with being a complete cynic. I'm a cynic with an openness to conspiratorial beliefs. I can imagine all sorts of scenarios here.

like the thunderstorm mentioned above, sit back 'n' watch the show!
Sham? Nah. Rick Perry is a true American badass Texan hero dontchyaknow? Forcing 11 year old girls to get STD shots in school without their parent's permission is totally patriotic. And getting paid big bucks by lobbyists to pass the legislation that forced newly developed drugs with unknown long-term consequences on children...well, that's capitalism at it's finest baby.

That's it...focus on the anti-vaccine angle...ignore his financial connections...that's the way to keep Ron Paul from being completely marginalized as the candidate for kooks and cancer.
LOL
Nice.
Not if that 2 million dollar put comes to fruition.

Your avatar, whoa.
I felt like that daily during the entire Win 3.1-'98 phase.
Very, very nice. There are days I feel just like that, all day.
That should get the Ron Paul acolytes foaming at the mouth about Perry being a sell-out...
And who are you foaming at the mouth for?
I am undecided by the way.
Ron Paul is a man of integrity, but I believe he has no realistic chance of winning the GOP nomination. I believe Rick Perry will win the GOP nomination. I would vote for Rick Perry over Obama. Obama has been an unmitigated disaster (imho).
Rick Perry is a corporate facists just like Obama dama ding dong
I would prefer Pat Buchanan to any of them, but he is not a viable candidate. If it comes down to Perry vs. Obama, I would vote for Perry. Obama does not deserve another term. He wasn't qualified in the first place. He has been a disaster.
on 2nd thought...bring back the junk bottons Tyler
Better yet, give ZH users an ignore button...
Junk [1]
JHFC ... you are actually analysing and comparing the candidates?! Dude, you need to see a shrink, pronto!

If you are that cynical, you would be welcome to go live in Canada...
Your vote doesn't matter, the electoral college/Diebold has you by the balls. And if we are to split hairs, then Perry is Obama, as one is just the other hand of the same puppet master.
Hegel thanks you for trying.
Feel free to join i-dog in the Great White North. Two more wetbacks heading north to become Canucks!
Please explain to me how your vote counts. I'm all ears.
Ridiculous question. George W. Bush won the popular vote in the State of Florida by 537 votes. The elctoral votes from Florida decided the national election.
So had he not won, what would be different? Would it be as amazingly different as GW's and BO's policies which despite rhetoric completely mirror each other. Perhaps you are too concerned with appearances?
Perhaps you are a complete cynic.
Well, I haven't given up on Ron Paul yet.
1. Feel free to vote for Ron Paul in the GOP primary.
2. Feel free to vote (or not vote) in the general election after Perry is nominated.
3. Feel free to immolate yourself in gasoline after Paul loses the GOP primary. After all, the choice is yours.
If you choose #3, would you consider paying someone to tape it and put it on YouTube?
Your spam has convinced me!
..
Yet you will sell this country out by supporting Perry? My answer is to march on DC, march on the Fed, rid yourself of dollars, and trade them in for silver. You are naive enough to think that the Republicans are any better than the Democrats, when both parties are bankrolled by the same corporations.
"Yet you will sell this country out by supporting Perry?"
I believe the general election will pit Obama vs. Perry. If so, I will vote for Perry. I hope you will do the same. Obama is a disaster.
"You are naive enough to think that the Republicans are any better than the Democrats, when both parties are bankrolled by the same corporations."
Yes, both parties are bankrolled by the same corporations. Ron Paul is a Republican. If he has the winning ticket, let him run as a Libertarian. Meanwhile, if I am faced with the choice of Obama or Perry in the general election, I would choose Perry.
Only a troll would be this stupid openly.
Y-A-W-N!
intellectual discourse has that effect on some

more brain space, blog space, media space wastage, incoming electioneering season has already begun, choose sides! cheer your fave! hate the other!

yes plzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz!
whats your poison, the slow or fast kind ,
funny that grown people types injest slow death at the voting booth,
thinking that the knife is a better option than than gun, one to the head or a slice at the jugler.
Please, let's not go there, it's like choosing between Stalin and Musolini.
I will gladly not vote for either for President should it come down to that. The Neo Conervatives don't realize that Ron Paul supports are like toothpaste squeezed out of the tube. Pretty damn hard to get back in after the fact. The NeoConservatives need the RP vote, otherwise they will not win (not that it matters who is at the helm of this sinking ship from a D or R perspective). We don't sacrifice principles over party.
Not for sale bitchez.

Especially the narcissistic Stephen Colbert.
Ron Paul beat Rick Perry in a poll of Texas voters: Ron Paul 22%, Rick Perry 17%.
Perry is unelectable.
"Perry is unelectable."
Watch and see.
Perry can't win. Ron Paul beats Perry by five points in their home state of Texas.
Watch and see.
Read and weep.
Ron Paul clobbers Rick Perry in latest pollhttp://www.thestatecolumn.com/articles/ron-paul-clobbers-rick-perry-in-latest-poll/#ixzz1VUSY5VoY
CrockettAlmanac.com,
You are 100% delusional if you think Ron Paul is REALISTIC candidate for President. He has approximately 0.0% chance of winning the GOP nomination. Perry most certainly can defeat Obama in the general election. Watch and learn.
Right. Quoting actual polling data in which Paul beats Perry makes me delusional, but making up imaginary figures (0.0%) makes you a rational human being.
Here is some recent polling data for you:
Rasmussen Poll has Bachmann third, after Perry, Romney
By Joe Kimball | Published Wed, Aug 17 2011 8:43 am
http://www.minnpost.com/minnpotus/2011/08/17/30874/rasmussen_poll_has_ba...
The poll has:
Perry 29%
Romney 18%
Bachmann 13%
Ron Paul 9%
Quick, tell us all how the Rasmussen data is not valid etc. etc. ad nauseam, ad infinitum, blah, blah, blah.
Ron Paul has no chance at the GOP nomination. If you are feeling confident, let us take a public wager. If Ron Paul loses the GOP nomination, you agree to never post on ZH again. If Ron Paul wins the GOP nomination, I will never post on ZH again. Care to accept the bet?
Paul beats Perry in the poll of Texas voters. The Texans know both of these men far better than Americans at large do. As the general population gets to learn more about Perry they will draw the same conclusion.
Perry can't win because just like Al Gore he can't carry his home state.
Do you accept my wager? Yes or no?
Everyone on this thread can be a witness to the wager I have offered. Let Tyler remove the account of the one of us who loses the bet.
Ron Paul will not win the GOP nomination. No chance.
Your wager holds no interest for me. I don't care whether you continue to post here or not. This site belongs to the Tylers. If you want to bargain for posting rights at ZH do it with the owners, not me.
Chickenshit!
How about a better wager not subject to insider information? I wager in a dual, I would win and you would lose. Want to take me up on the offer?
I'll tell you what. Take the Mensa entrance exam and then publish your membership number. Then, you can look me up in the Mensa directory.

"Is this a formal invitation to join the oligarchs?"
It is an invitation to test your IQ and see if you qualify for membership. Since you apparently believe you are my intellectual superior, submit yourself to a standardized IQ test and see if you qualify.
Well? When are you going to sit for the exam?
Let your superiors know I'm willing to negotiate.
There are no negotiations. You either have the intellectual horsepower to pass the exam or you do not. Meanwhile:

2. Feel free to vote (or not vote) in the general election after Perry is nominated.
3. Feel free to immolate yourself in gasoline after Paul loses the GOP primary. After all, the choice is yours.
Bummer. I really wanted that 1000 oz and book deal. Teleworking would have been a bonus too.
For some reason i picture you at the menstrual meetings speaking in a Marvin the Martian voice.... genius
your comments on the standardized IQ test reveal more about you IQ (and maturity) than the test results
Paul has 68% vs. Perry 19% on yesterdays Fox and Friends poll. 6000 votes for Paul 1900 for Perry.

Ron Paul is running against the establishment while Perry is a part of the establishment. Perry may be appointed to chief stooge. Whether Ron Paul becomes a giant monkey wrench in the machine or not is up to people that are sick of the trolls.
As an FYI, Perry has been elected as Governor of Texas in three (3) different elections (2002, 2006 and 2010). Prior to that, he was elected as Lieutenant Governor in one (1) election (1998). Prior to that, he was elected to the position of Agriculture Commissioner in two (2) different elections (1990 and 1994). Prior to that, Rick Perry was elected to the State Legislature in three (3) different elections (1984, 1986 and 1988). In fact, The Dallas Morning News named Perry one of the ten most effective members of the legislature.
Rick Perry has been elected to a statewide office in Texas in NINE (9) different elections. I would say the people of Texas have clearly and repeatedly spoken re. his qualifications at each level.
Get ready. He IS going to be the GOP nominee for President.
That is a horrible argument. Ron Paul has been elected to office in Texas numerous times also. The original point you were trying to make is that Ron Paul is not electable. Come on, MENSA man, you can do better.
The argument is a rebuttal to those who claim (based upon the result of one poll) that Ron Paul has greater broad appeal throughout the State of Texas than Rick Perry does. Perry has won a STATEWIDE election six (6) different times (Ag Commisioner, Lt. Governor and Governor). Ron Paul has been elected as US Representative in the 14th Congressional District and the 22nd Congressional District, but Ron Paul has NEVER won a statewide election in Texas. My argument is logical and sound. The fact that it goes over your head is your problem. I have had no hand in your incompetence.
tarsubil, you will never match wits with me. Go back to the minor leagues.
What about the poll that puts Paul in front of Perry in Texas?
1. Feel free to vote for Ron Paul in the GOP primary.
2. Feel free to vote (or not vote) in the general election after Perry is nominated.
3. Feel free to immolate yourself in gasoline after Paul loses the GOP primary. After all, the choice is yours.
I'm pretty sure copying and pasting is frowned upon by your superiors. Duplicate posts do not count towards your quota.
I'm pretty sure that copying and pasting something filled with wit and wisdom is of greater value than the pablum you post on this thread.
Wake me up when you have something intelligent to say. Until then, zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz (that is the sound of me snoring).
Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz...
Ron Paul will have trouble winning the Republican primary UNLESS, there is a movement among libertarian minded Democrats and independents (which there are a lot of) to register as Republicans in order to vote for him in the primaries. However, if he does manage to win the nomination, I believe he is the only candidate capable of CREAMING Obama in the general. He's the only one in the race who could pretty much rely on 100% of Republican votes and a substantial cross over from Democrats and indepenent voters.
Not a value judgment, but an observation: His volunteers are out in force on blogs frequented--of all people--by severely disaffected "progressives."
Is Perot still alive? ...or at least continent?
I'd vote for him if he's not in Hospice yet.

Ron Paul is a man of integrity

THAT'S not who pulls these shenanigans; it's the crowd of 'loose cannons' that follow him adoringly and would to ANYTHING for him ...
I know plenty of Ron Paul's disciples. They think he walks on water. Unfortunately for them, he is not who the GOP Establishment wants. He is not going to win the nomination.
If you knew anything about Ron Paul supporters you'd know they aren't "disciples." We think for ourselves and look forward to the day when President Paul takes office and no one -- including Paul himself -- will force us to do things we find morally reprehensible or financially burdensome.
Dude, you're on some seriously good shrooms!!
