The FDIC lawsuit against Amrish Mahajan, former president of Mutual Bank, et al is scheduled for a motion hearing in the courtroom of Judge Virginia M. Kendall on October 25, 2012. Mutual Bank loaned Rita Rezko the money for the lot that was purchased by the Obama’s. It is also the bank that fired whistleblower Kenneth J. Conner after he questioned the appraisal of that lot.

From Citizen Wells June 5, 2012.

The Obama camp, with the full cooperation of the mainstream media and US Justice Dept., has done their best to distance Obama from his numerous close corruption ties in Chicago and Illinois. The delayed and dragged out prosecution of Rod Blagojevich with his mutual ties to Tony Rezko, the failure to call Rezko as a witness and the dropping of counts against Blagojevich that are most damning for Obama, is one good example.

With the best attempts to divert attention away from Obama’s corrupt past, the Ghosts of Obama’s Christmas past continue to linger.

From an article written by truthteller and presented on NoQuarter USA on October 12, 2008.

“”Because I tend to rely on evidence and not on hearsay, I believe we should focus our attention on Amrish Mahajan and the Mutual Bank of Harvey, not on Giannoulias and the Broadway Bank, if we are to assign names to the financial institution about which Sneed of the Chicago Sun-Timeshas heard “rumblings.” Although Mahajan is not known to readers ofNo Quarter and to the national media, I imagine they will desire more information on the unscrupulous banker once they read the information I unpack below the fold. And yes, Obama is involved, deeply involved.”

My interest in Amrish Mahajan and the Mutual Bank of Harvey was picqued by this list of contributors in Rezko’s bundling network provided by the Chicago Sun-Times last March. View the second page of the document, and notice the following entry:

Last name First name Obama donations Rezko connection
Mahajan Amrish $2,500 Banker whose bank loaned money to Rezko companies. The bank also loaned Rezko’s wife money to buy a vacant lot next to Obama’s home.

The data available in the Sun-Times spreadsheet is corroborated by the following data, which is democratically available at the Federal Election Commission‘s website:

MAHAJAN, AMRISH
CHICAGO, IL 60607
MUTUAL BANK

OBAMA, BARACK
VIA OBAMA FOR ILLINOIS INC
12/20/2003 500.00 24020030170
04/14/2004 1000.00 24020461757

Not only was Mahajan a member of Rezko’s bundling network; his bank, the Mutual Bank of Harvey, granted Rita Rezko the $500,000 mortgage she neededin order to purchase the lot on which the Obama mansion in Chicago sits. As many of you may recall, the Obamas could not have purchased the mansion they could not afford unless transactions for the mansion and the lot closed on the same day. Obama needed to locate someone who would buy the lot, and he approached Rezko, the convicted slumlord with whom Obama toured the property before they mutually agreed to the following arrangement:

The home and lot sales closed on June 15, 2005. A land trust controlled by the Obamas bought the house for $1.65 million, and the Obamas secured a $1.32 million mortgage from Northern Trust to complete that purchase. That same day, Rezko’s wife, Rita Rezko, bought the side lot for $625,000. A $37,000- a-year Cook County employee, she secured a $500,000 mortgage from Mutual Bank of Harvey.

The structure of this transaction begs the following question: What bank would lend a government employee who earns $37,000 per annum a $500,000 mortgage? What bank would assume such a risk?

The Mutual Bank of Harvey, of course, for the Mutual Bank of Harvey’s President is a man who is deeply connected to the Chicago machine that backed Barack Obama. Indeed, Amrish Mahajan was one of Mayor Daley’s first political appointments in 1989, when he was named to a seat on Chicago’s Plan Commission, where he would be joined by Obama’s former boss and Rezko’s business partner Allison Davis and by Valerie Jarrett, Daley’s Chief of Staff whochaired the Commission from 1991-1995. Mahajan, in other words, worked with those who devised and profited from Daley’s failed public housing experiment in Chicago, a public housing policy Obama helped fund as state Senator and US Senator.

Rezko, according to the Boston Globe, was one of the major beneficiaries of Obama’s legislative advocacy for funding of Daley’s public housing experiment. Other major beneficiaries are Jarrett and Allison Davis. Mahajan was also a beneficiary, for his bank had made $3.4 million dollars in loans to Tony Rezko’s slum landlord business since 2002. A banker for one of the slumlords who benefitted from the Daley housing program Obama helped bankroll, Mahajan was returning a favor when he wrote a $500,000 mortgage in 2005 for the wife of one of his clients. Although Tony’s financial problems were mounting in 2005, and although Rita earned only $35,000 per annum, Mahajan underwrote the mortgage. Favors must be reciprocated, I guess, especially when one can satisfy two parties at once: the person with whom one has a complicated relationship in real estate and the politician who helped finance that complicated relationship as state Senator and US Senator.

I doubt federal investigators are interested in the Mahajans solely for their involvement in the property deal involving Obama, Mahajan and the Rezkos. The Mahajans, I believe, are the foci of their probe for many reasons.

The real estate transaction involving Rita Rezko, the Obamas and Mutual Bank of Harvey is just the tip of the iceberg. Indeed, the Mutual Bank of Harvey seems to be at the center of all the corruption in Chicago. To quote former Donald Perillo, Chicago insurance mogul and son of the lawyer for Al Capone, in the Chicago Tribune article I cite above:

Donald Parrillo said he isn’t surprised to see Mahajan mix it up with politics and business. “He got that attitude from the Parrillo family,” the former alderman said. “He wanted to get in the game.”

And Mahajan certainly is in the game. The banker of the Chicago machine, he is also the man who wrote the mortgage for Rita Rezko that facilitated Obama’s purchase the mansion he could not afford. This is why I believe prosecutors are interested in Harvey Mutual Bank. Not only did Rezko receive loans from this institution; this bank is heavily involved in problematic real estate dealings involving Blagojevich and Obama. And if I may quote Rezko in the 9 JUN letter he wrote to Judge Amy St. Eve:

Your Honor, the prosecutors have been overzealous in pursuing a crime that never happened. They are pressuring me to tell them the “wrong” things that I supposedly know aboutGovernor Blagojevich and Senator Obama. I have never been party to any wrongdoing that involved the Governor or the Senator. I will never fabricate lies about anyone else for selfish purposes. I will take what comes my way, but I will never hurt innocent people. I am not Levine, Loren, Mahru , or Winter.”

Rezko is now talking, and prosecutors are presently interested in a politically connected financial institution. I bet Obama now regrets paying Rita Rezko $104,500 for the strip of the land in the lot on which his house sits in January 2006. Acquired with the assistance of a questionable $500,000 mortgage from Amrish Mahajan’s Mutual Bank of Harvey, this lot and Obama’s desire to expand his yard by bit was the catalyst for all the investigative reports into Obama’s deep ties to Rezko. By the way, Rita’s lot is only accessible through the front gate of Obama’s home; it is not a separate property, and it was never intended to be a separate property.

“It was a mistake to have been engaged with him at all in this or any other personal business dealing that would allow him, or anyone else, to believe that he had done me a favor,” Obama says of the real estate transactions with Rezko. I wonder if now he also believes it was a mistake for him to serve as the legislator who represented and bankrolled Richard Daley, Amrish Mahajan, Valerie Jarrett, Allison Davis and the Chicago Plan Commission. But at least he and Michelle have a house, a house the Mutual Bank of Harvey, the politically connected bank that wrote loans for Rezko, helped them procure in 2005. Too bad that house will be the end of Barack Obama.

From Citizen Wells November 1, 2011.

“Here is what we know about the purchase of a lot by Barack and Michelle Obama from Rita Rezko in 2006:

1. “In June, 2005, Mutual Bank President and CEO Amrish Mahajan and
other Mutual Bank officers approved a loan to Rita Malki Rezko (Rita
Rezko) which was guaranteed by Antonin Rezko so that Rita Rezko could
purchase a 9,090 square foot vacant parcel of real estate at 5050 S.
Greenwood Avenue, Chicago.” (Conner lawsuit)

2. “On or about January 4, 2006, Rita Rezko entered into an
agreement with Senator Barack and Michelle Obama (Obamas) to sell a
ten-foot strip of the 5050 S. Greenwood property to the Obamas.”
(Conner lawsuit)

3. “In late 2005 or early 2006, Conner performed an appraisal review
of the Adams Appraisal (Exhibit C) per the directive of Richard Barth
and James Murphy. Conner prepared a written Appraisal Review report
(ARR) opining that the Adams Appraisal overvalued the Greenwood lot by
a minimum of $ 125,000.00 and that a reasonable and fair valuation for
Mutual Banks’s underwriting purposes should be no greater than $
500,000.00 for the entire 5050 S. Greenwood parcel as originally
purchased by Rita Rezko.” (Conner lawsuit)

4. “On or about October 19, 2006, Mutual Bank received a Grand Jury
Subpoena (GJS) requiring Mutual Bank to produce the Rezko 5050
Greenwood loan file, as well as a Rita Rezko Riverside District
Development LLC checking account and loan file.” (Conner lawsuit)

5. “In October, 2007, Conner had various communications with Mutual
Bank’s Human Resources Department representative, Lana Schlabach. In
an email communication of October 15, 2007, Conner directly referenced
“Resentment over my mentioned discovery of the removal/replacement of
an appraisal review that I conducted. That appraisal review contained
substantial observations and suggestions. The transaction and parties
involved were high profile in the media.I am under the impression that
the FBI has since looked at the file.”” On October 23, 2007, eight days after Conner’s October 15, 2007 email to Schlabach attached as Exhibit J, Mutual Bank terminated Conner’s employment for pretextual reasons.” (Conner lawsuit)

6. “On October 23, 2007, eight days after Conner’s October 15, 2007
email to Schlabach attached as Exhibit J, Mutual Bank terminated
Conner’s employment for pretextual reasons.” (Conner lawsuit)

7. The FDIC has filed a lawsuit against Mutual Bank, Amrish Mahajan, Richard Barth, et al.”

From ABC News Chicago August 22, 2011.

“Anita Mahajan, a Chicago businesswoman with ties to former governor Rod Blagojevich, pleaded guilty to bilking the state of Illinois by submitting bogus bills.

“I’m sorry,” Mahajan said in court Monday while pleading guilty to felony theft for pilfering about $100,000 in taxpayer money through her drug-testing company, K.K. Bio-Science. That company is now defunct.

The 60-year-old received four years of probation, agreed to pay $200,000 in fines and perform 1,500 hours of community service.

Mahajan’s husband, Amrish, was a banker and significant fundraiser for Blagojevich. Also, Blagojevich’s wife, Patti, made more than $100,000 in commissions handling real estate deals for the Mahajans in 2006, which caused a stir in the Blagojevich re-election campaign. The following year, Mahajan was charged with cheating the state of out of $2 million for drug tests that were never performed.

“People of this state were being cheated,” Dick Devine said in 2007 when he was the state’s attorney while announcing a seven-count indictment against Mahajan. The attorney general sued to recover the state’s lost money.

Four years later, Mahajan pleaded guilty to a single, reduced charge of theft instead of the felonies that would have sent her to prison for at least six years.

“Anita Mahajan is another example of the collateral damage that’s been left in the wake of the Rod Blagojevich Tsunami,” Steve Miller, Mahajan’s attorney, said.””

From the FDIC lawsuit against Amrish Mahajan, et al.

“6. The Director Defendants also wasted corporate assets and drained the Bank’s capital by…(c) authorizing $ 495,000 in “bonuses” to pay for the criminal defense costs for the Defendant Amrish Mahajan’s wife who was indicted for Medicaid fraud”

“32. The Director and Officer Defendants failed to establish procedures that would have lessened the risks of the Bank’s improvidant lending practices. The terms of transactions were not accurately documented. Status reports were missing so that records of how an asset was progressing were not available. Terms of loans were changed at closing without board or loan committee approvals or any rcord in the file. Loan guarantees were frequently missing from the files. Appraisers were retained by brokers with an interest in seeing transactions consummated, not by the bank. Appraisals were often received after the loan was funded. Loans were typically non-recourse and dependent on guarantor abilities to repay in the event that the collateral was insufficient. Yet, little or no attention was paid to whether guarantors had sufficient liquidity to protect the Bank’s interest; the officers and the Board did little or no analysis of guarantor or borrower financial strength.”

From the Washington Times November 4, 2008.

“A former Illinois real estate specialist says FBI agents have questioned him about a Chicago property that had been bought by convicted felon Tony Rezko’s wife and later sold to the couple’s next-door neighbor, Sen. Barack Obama.

The real estate specialist, Kenneth J. Conner, said bank officials replaced an appraisal review he prepared on the property and FBI agents were investigating in late 2007 whether the Rezko-Obama deal was proper.

“Agents and I talked about payoff, bribe, kickback for a long time, though it took them only a short number of minutes of talking with me while looking at the appraisal to acknowledge what they already seemed to know: The Rezko lot was grossly overvalued,” Mr. Conner told The Washington Times Monday.

“Rezko paid the asking price on the same day Obama paid $300,000 less than the asking price to the same seller for his adjacent mansion,” he said. “This begs the question of payoff, bribe, kickback.””

The Kenneth J. Conner lawsuit is still active.

Oh, and by the way, Kenneth J. Conner, the whistleblower, is still finishing his book, “Rezko for Radicals.” I spoke to him a few days ago.
Obama’s Rezko problem is not going away.

  8. @bob strauss re who you vote for.

    My wife and I received our NC absentee ballots recently and noted the change from the past (at least I don’t remember it ever being this way.) This year, voting the “straight party” vote does NOT automatically determine the President/Vice President vote. Maybe the machines are set to default to Obama in the hopes that someone who walks in a selects a “Republican party” vote as they’ve done in the past won’t notice that Obama is still their choice for President. Just guessing…. but why else would they make such a dumb change to the ballot?

  12. Anyone who can help
    I believe Donald Trump has a good Idea. Millions would like to know, they also could participate with a pledge of their own. This could all be tabulated in one website with everyone tracking how many participated and the total amount. Donald Trumps 5 million could become 10 20 or 100 million who knows? Many wealthy people might match his offer. He would probably want to give it the exposure as he seeded the idea. Does anyone know who might want to spear head and have the capabilities to set up such a website.
    I will pledge $50 personally. When I told my friend Henry of the Idea he also pledged $50 so now the call for Obama to release his records is $5,000,100.00
    Obama we the people demand you release your records.
    Sandy
    P.S. Maybe your web sight ??? It could go viral !

  13. I just read on AOL where Colin Powell is supporting Obama… AGAIN.

    THIS SHOULD COME AS NO SURPRISE TO ANYONE.

    Colin Powell is nothing but an ass-kisser and in this Infantryman’s eyes (ME), that’s all he has ever been.My second tour of duty to Vietnam was at the same time that then Captain Colin Powell was there. He too had been assigned as an Advisor to the South Vietnamese Army.

    Shortly into his assignment, he stepped on a punji stake early in his assignment that ended his oblligation to serve with line troops..

    From then on Powell served far out of harms way in division and higher levels of command. Powell was identified as a “water walker” and swiftly moved up the ladder and advanced quickly in promotions.

    As a young Major, Powell was ask by his division commander to investigate charges concerning the My Lai Massacre, where a platoon of soldiers under the command of Lt Callie which was part of the Americal Division, had slaugthered over 300 innocent women, children, and older adults.

    A letter had been sent to the commander of that division by a soldier that had direct knowledge of the incident. The commander assigned Powell to investigate. Powell interviewed the soldier and found, NO VALUE TO THE CHARGES OF THE SOLDIER, AND FOUND NO EVIDENCE TO CALL THE ACTION A MASSACRE. No disciplinary action was taken at that time against the officer or soldier’s of the unit responsible.

    But fortunately, the investigation of the My Lai incident did not stop on Powell’s desk. The investigation was taken elsewhere and eventually the truth came out and the officers responsible for this slaughter of innocent non-combatants were punished.

    A good friend on mine sat on the General Courts Martial Board that found Lt.Callie guilty and sent him to the United States Disciplinary Barracks in Fort Leavenworth,, Kansas.

    POWELL CLAIMED IGNORANCE TO ANY KNOWLEDGE OF THE EVENT TAKING PLACE. This seemed to be Powell’s way of operating. Take the path of least resistance. Although he could have brought the My Lai incident to an earlier closure, his botching of the investigation did not slow down his rise as a “water walker”.

    Powell always has been a butt kisser, regardless of which party is in power. He has always taken sides with the party in power.

    Obama and the democrats are now in power. So it is no surprise to me that Powell would be supporting Obama, even though Powell must have no doubt that OBAMA is a FAKE and a USURPER. However, that doesn’t seem to bother Powell to much. Powell thinks like Obama, the Constitution of the United States is nothing but an old piece of paper..

    Powell is a phony just like Obama. I never respected him as an officer, I have even less respect for him as a politician.

    Thanks Donald for backing Powell’s butt into a corner with your challenge, which Powell remained totally silent on. And thanks again for backing O’bummer’s butt into that same corner with your 5 million dollar challenge on which he also will remain as quite as a little church mouse.

    So if the readers here feel I have no respect for Colin Powell…they will be absolutely right.

    My grandfather gave me a gem of his wisdom once that said, “Birds of a feather, flock together”.

    How true,..how true

  14. Kevin DuJan:

    “UPDATE ON OBAMAS’ HAWAIIAN ESTATE PURCHASE: Property has been bought on Oahu in the name of a blind/family trust (but it’s a different house than we originally thought it would be)”

    “… The general consensus is that everyone was foolish not to let Hillary be president first and then allow Obama to be her VP…and they all could have had 12 or 16 years in the White House instead of only four. …

    Penny Pritzker is being personally blamed for the fact that Democrats will now be out of office for many years, because if not for her early money and pressure on wealthy Chicagoans then Obama would not have been able to eclipse the Clintons for the nomination. After November 7th, when the Democrat Civil War really kicks into gear you should expect to hear people talking about how Penny personally threatened people back in 2008 that if they did not raise large sums for Obama that she’d call them racists and would “blackball them” in Chicago social circles. All of this will come out once the Obamas are out of power. One source in Chicago’s development community told me that Penny’s “going to be run out of town on a rail for what she did to get that early money for Obama”. No one has forgotten the threats and hard sell she made…”memories are long but the knives are longer” is how this was put to me.”

    I like your saying:

    “memories are long, but the knives are longer”…that’s the Chicago way !

  18. RMinNC,
    Thanks for sharing your first-hand knowledge of Colin Powell.

    That all explains why he is firmly entrenched in supporting the party in power and how he can shift in whatever direction benefits him the most personally. People like that are really weaklings with few, if any, core values.
    I believe all you said, because I trust you and appreciate your appraisal of these matters.

  19. Bob Strauss……………….
    Here is one for you! A DNC representative in Ohio has told all who voted Democratic in 2008, are now REQUIRED to vote Democratic, in 2012 as well irregardless of how they might feel. Would you think that this might be a little ILLEGAL VOTER STEERING/or coercion. For him to tell voters that they MUST vote democratic this time because they voted as such in 2008 is a REAL LOAD OF BULLSH#T. But it would not surprise me if everyone of them BELIEVE it. As I said it is not the perpetrator as much as it is the GENERAL STUPIDITY, IGNORANCE,and apathy of the LAME BRAINS who walk amongst us. Yet it is these very nitwits who scream the loudest AFTER THE FACT.

  20. CABBYAZ…thanks fiend

    To borrow a phrase from oldsalior’s navy friend, Popeye;

    “I calls it like I see’s it!”

  21. TO ALL…………..
    While Colin Powell is a RETIRED General, he is in fact a USELESS PIECE OF GARBAGE when compared to Generals like George Patton,Omar Bradley,Dwight Eisenhower, and Douglas MacArthur. Obviously he would support a LATRINE ORDERLY for POTUS just as long as the orderly is black. An acquaintance of mine once compared Powell to Schwartzkopf. There is no comparison. Powell is a total nincompoop,and otherwise a complete zero when compared to STORMIN NORMAN.

  25. CW….
    can you take my last comment out of moderation?………thanks

  26. We have GENERALS up the whazoo,but we have pathetically few Generals who we can say are truly GREAT FIELD COMMANDERS,simply because a number of these gold braid OFFICE BOYS have NEVER experienced any form of combat. Nor have they ever had to command divisions in any wartime situations. In short many of our Generals should rightfully NOT EVEN BE occupying the rank, because they would not have a clue, if we had another Pearl attack. The same goes for our ALLEGED ADMIRALS. If handed the command of a ship,many of them wouldn’t even have the slightest idea how to get their ship away from trhe pier,and under way. They would order the JUNIOR officers to get the ship underway. The Commanding officer of the LOVE BOAT probably has far more experience at getting a ship under way than many of our so called upper echelon Navy brass. I exclude our Coast Guard brass because MOST of the senior officers came up through the ranks,and are seasoned seamen as well. They do know what is going on.

    (Everything was one big joke last night)

  29. OLDSAILOR…..

    Just as we have;
    “ARMCHAIR QUARTERBACKS….WE HAVE ARMCHAIR GENERALS”

    it really is a damn crying shame we are sending our young men to battle to get wounded and to die….and those up high in the “food chain” only have medals they bought from the PX………little or no combat experience.

    If anything history has taught us anything, it would be:
    ” out of our own ignorance, we are bound to repeat the errors of those who started the damn mess in the first place.”

  30. I’m confused, If Romney gets elected will he have inherited this economic mess from Obama or O’ Bush ???

  31. YOUR WELCOME CW……

    DRUDGE REPORT has the headline now, along with OBAMA’s picture, pointing his finger and saying, “HE’S A BULLSHITTER”

    The article didn’t say, but Obama was looking in a mirror when he said that!

  32. CW please take my last comment out of moderation….thanks

  33. Bob Strauss……………
    I too watched and listened to the Gretta “SURGERY” which Trump performed LIVE on FOX News. I have long viewed Gretta as a REPEATER of LAST WEEKS NEWS,which has already been gone over with a double fine tooth comb by her contractual counterparts. However I am hesitant to say outright that she is totally oblivious of the TRUTH. She takes the WELL PAVED street,if you get what I mean. This is the same exact modus operandi of ALL FOX CONTRACTORS.

  34. RMINNC……….Re 12:41 PM

    Once again….. “10-4!”

    Bye bye all …….God Bless!

  35. Let me try this a different way……..

    I just read on DRUDGE REPORT that OBAMA called ROMNEY a “‘BULLSH*TTER”……..The report didn’t say, but I will lay odds that Obama was looking in a mirror when he said that!

  36. Hi Cabby,

    That statement was very ‘presidential,’ don’t you agree?

    Desperate people resorting to desperate measures. And profanity.

    As you might have noticed Leno was depending on “BODY LANGUAGE” to tell his audience what he really thought. Yeah he made a joke out of everything,but then you must keep in mind he is a “Stand up comedian”,and most of his viewers KNOW IT!

  41. “PAUL: WHERE WERE THE MARINES? BUCK STOPS WITH OBAMA IN BENGHAZI SECURITY BREACH”

    “Monday’s foreign policy debate between [the outrageous, daily lawless, daily law-breaking, extremely dangerous serial criminal, foreign & domestic terrorist Communist Muslim totalitarian dictator usurper] Obama and Gov. Mitt Romney was designed to help voters better understand each man’s vision for America’s role abroad. While I have publicly taken issue with both candidates on aspects of their foreign policies, there is no question that Mr. Romney remains the right choice for Americans on Nov. 6.

    However, it is also clear neither candidate adequately addressed the gross intelligence failure in Libya that left four Americans dead, including U.S. Ambassador to Libya J. Christopher Stevens. Too many important questions remain unanswered concerning Mr. Obama’s entire mishandling of the recent siege of Benghazi.

    I would like to take this opportunity to ask the questions Americans want answered.

    ===> The first and most pressing question for Mr. Obama remains: Where the hell were the Marines?

    ===> Two of the most potentially vulnerable or dangerous American embassies are in Iraq and Libya. In Iraq, we have roughly 17,000 people guarding our ambassador. Not all of them are Marines, but some several hundred are, and they guard our ambassador behind a 10-foot-high walled fortress. In Iraq, we cannot afford to take any unnecessary risks with our diplomats and go to great lengths to ensure that there are plenty of armed personnel between our representatives and any potential threats.

    ===> In Libya, there were no uniformed Marines guarding our ambassador. Originally, there was a 16-person security team led by Col. Andrew Wood, who had requested to stay in Libya. In July, Stevens sent memos to the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee requesting an “extension of tour of duty (TDY) personnel.” Stevens was referring to Col. Wood’s 16-man team, which was scheduled to leave in August. Stevens requested on Aug. 2 — just six weeks before his murder — to keep security personnel in Libya “through mid-September,” calling the conditions there “unpredictable, volatile and violent.”

  42. “PAUL: WHERE WERE THE MARINES? BUCK STOPS WITH OBAMA IN BENGHAZI SECURITY BREACH”

    Con’t 2 of 2

    ===> Col. Woods has also said that he repeatedly requested to remain in Libya because he felt both the environment and the ambassador were unsafe. Now, after the tragic fact, no one knows what happened to Stevens‘ original request.

    ===> Why was the security team that both Stevens and Col. Woods requested sent home? Who made this decision?

    ===> What happened to the plane, [Obama}? There was supposed to be a DC-3 available to help people get out of Libya or to travel around the country as needed. But that plane was taken away on May 4. On May 8, just four days later, the State Department spent $108,000 on a new electrical charging station to “green up” our embassy in Vienna.

    You have to ask: Was this “green” initiative more important than the security of our embassy in Libya? We spent about $1 million on electric cars to make a political statement in Vienna, but we somehow couldn’t find the time or resources to have just one Marine guarding our Libyan embassy, much less a much-needed 16-man personnel team.

    ===> We spent $100,000 on an electric car-charging station to show Vienna how green we are, but did not keep a plane in Libya that could have been instrumental in transporting our own diplomats to safety.

    [Obama] now says the buck stops with him. […] So, […] Obama, again: Where the hell were the Marines? Where was the plane? Saying the buck stops with you sounds good, but you have to follow through.

    We’ve seen this kind of government incompetence before.

    Once the initial shock and horror of Sept. 11, 2001, began to subside, the finger pointing commenced. Everyone agreed that our intelligence had failed — massively — but no one would claim responsibility for this failure. Reports of possible terrorist attacks had been repeatedly ignored, including the FBI turning down search warrants from their Minnesota branch that could have potentially provided us valuable information.

    Still, after the worst terrorist attack in American history, no one was held accountable.

    In 2001, 3,000 innocent people lost their lives — but not one government bureaucrat lost his job.”

    Afternoon, RM,

    Yes, a ‘Gumpquote’ is definitely in order here! Can you imagine either Bush or Ronald Reagan uttering that word? Street language from a street thug.

    We certainly did get some bad candy four years ago (not due to us, or anyone at CW’s) or, as a local talk show host put it: ‘A bad ice cube.’

    Wonder which drug he was hopped up on during that speech? He reminds me of Michael Jackson; uppers, downers and everything in between just to get through the day.

    This needs to change in a little less than two weeks.

    R&R 2012!

  48. WRITING ON THE WALL

    “RON PAUL SAYS SOMEONE NEEDS TO ASK THE FED QUESTION”

    October 24, 2012, 10:10 p.m.

    “Mr. Romney also has said he would consider a gold commission that would study the possibility of tying the value of a dollar to the price of gold.

    ===> Mr. Paul and his devoted following argue that it’s not enough. Mr. Paul said most of our economic ills can be traced to Fed policy run amok. He finds it ironic that the candidates talk about the recession, the jobs lost to it, bailouts, the national deficit and debt swelled by it, without mentioning monetary policy.

    “I wish somebody would ask the question,” he said. “I did my best to call attention to it.”

    Mr. Paul said that with a hint of finality. After all, he announced last summer that this term in Congress would be his last. He will no longer have Capitol Hill as his stage. Not to worry, he adds. There’s a lot of criticism about monetary policy happening outside of Washington. He says he would serve, if asked, on a gold commission or in a role related to his cause.

    ===> Ultimately, however, if his own accounting of the situation is correct, whoever is in the White House during the next four years will have to consider the Fed and its impact. Just last week, Mr. Paul noted, the Fed bought $20 billion in Treasurys, while foreign banks bought $22 billion. “This wasn’t money that was earned,” he said. “How long can this go on?”

    Debate about the Fed’s role “will come back,” Mr. Paul said. “It will be forced on the front burner because as long as we keep doing this and the longer the delay, the bigger the problem becomes.”

  49. Good Afternoon All; It looks like Hillary has a choice…Tell the truth NOW and throw the Democratic 2012 win under the bus and take sides with ALL the Amercian people…..OR….Tell the truth later after Obama loses and forget running for President in 2016….OR….IF, IF, IF by slim chance Obama win’s, she will be the first to be thrown under the bus and asked to resign and again forfeiting any chance at a 2016 run…What will she do???

  50. Philo-Publius

    Party loyalty to her socialists comrades comes first as it does with all progressive Dems…Hillary will not say or do anything which undermines Obama while at the same time she will be sure to insulate herself.

  51. Bessie,

    Interesting scenarios. If she tells the truth now, the MSM will be torn. I forsee a split in the MSM and how they cover it.

    If she tells the truth later (after Obama loses), she could say “I told you so”. In other words “I tried to warn you during the primary of 2008, but you wouldn’t listen”. This is her best choice.

    If O wins, then we’re all screwed. At that point, I couldn’t care less about what happens to Hillary. As far as I’m concerned, my country is dead.

    WHITE HOUSE INSIDER: Mitt Romney’s Quiet Prayer Amidst The Sound Of Thunder

    …the governor, he lowers his head and his eyes shut tight and you could see him take a slow deep breath and then he lets it out and says quietly, but just loud enough for some to hear,

    “Lord, if this is your will, please help to make me worthy. Please give me the strength Lord.”

    Thanks for posting this, Philo; I just commented over at Ulsterman.

    As my Governor, I’ve known this about Mr. Romney for quite some time and there, in CO, he gave America a glimpse of who he really is: A decent, God-fearing man who loves his family and America more than life itself.

    If anyone is in doubt after reading that account, they’re hopeless. There is only one choice: The *right* choice!

    I listened to that broadcast this morning and found it fascinating. I love TRUNEWS. More than the explanation of the Wahhabi connection, I loved his interpretation of Biblical prophecy from an eastern mindset. He covered aspects that were foreign to me yet perfectly understandable to him, having grown up there. Truly worth listening to. Thank you Observer.
