>From the Home of Rich & Peggy Martin "[E]very act of a delegated authority, contrary to the tenor of the commission under which it is exercised, is void. No legislative act, therefore, contrary to the Constitution, can be valid. To deny this, would be to affirm, that the deputy is greater than his principal; that the servant is above his master; that the representatives of the people are superior to the people themselves; that men acting by virtue of powers, may do not only what their powers do not authorize, but what they forbid." -- Alexander Hamilton NOTHING BUT THE ISSUES In RR Links #103 I queried, "Y R We the People on the hook for money being loaned out by the FED? For years we've been told they are a private corp not responsible to the US. Congress signed off on $770B only." Now we find out that we "bought" $20 B of preferred stock in The Rockefeller Family's CitiGroup which has a market value of $20.5. Pardon me, but that sounds like we paid for 97.5% of the corp but the common stock share holders retain control with 2.5%. But to be fair, our lustrous US Treasurer Paulson, chosen by Bush and Obama's announced choice to retain, also assumed an addition quarter of a trillion in CitiGroups troubled assets! All this with no congressional involvement. That's like buying a car worth $205 for $200, letting the other guy keep it---and then buying $2,500 for auto insurance coverage. Look at this way: $ 20 billion paid for citigroups preferred stock $249 billion assumed Citi Groups toxic assets In comparison $15 billion denied GM, Ford & Chrysler Corp DETAILS HERE http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2008/11/26/MNVN14C8QR.DTL And to get back to my original point, this this cash is being stolen, er, spent without Congressional involvement. And may I add, justice would be served if the perps were lined up facing a firing squad. But since that won't happen, plz tell me again why we shouldn't dissolve this rotten govt. LAST WORD THIS LAND IS YOUR LAND, NOT THEIRS http://kids.niehs.nih.gov/lyrics/thisland.htm THE TRUTH IS... . A. Powerful. C. In the eye of the beholder B. Irrelevant. D. All of the above. I'M MAD, AND I'M NOT GOING TO TAKE IT ANY MORE With ACORN, La Raza, and Ohio Dem officials sitting on 20,000 suspect voter registrations and other Dept heads releasing Joe the Plumber's confidential information, this has been an incredibly, uncreditable election. Hope you didn't waste your time and gas to stand in line at one of their polling places hoping the electoral system isn't a fraud.
