Your lawyers, hired by the State of Indiana, cost us two million dollars for a failed attempt to get the Supreme Court to junk the Chrysler bankruptcy. Best case, the Indiana pension funds were set to get six million dollars back. So, your state government, in a typical, stupid, Republican ploy to grab headlines cost the pension funds a third of the money they were going to get back. And, if they had succeeded in getting the Chrysler bankruptcy held up and Fiat folded up the table and quit? The pension funds stood to get pretty much NOTHING.<br /><br />So you tell me, friends of that bloated corpse Limbaugh and Greg the Moron Garrison, why aren&#39;t you screaming about the lost two million?<br /><br />The truth is, your state here bought extremely high risk &quot;securities&quot; from a failing car company for our PENSION FUNDS and then lost another two million in another bad gamble.<br /><br />FAIL!<br /><br />Sincerely,<br /><br />Dana Curtis Kincaid, Indianapolis, Indiana, 46219Danahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12932890854416698514noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-11116358206975211722009-06-16T10:32:27.650-05:002009-06-16T10:32:27.650-05:00Orwell gave us &#39;newspeak&#39;, &#39;oldspeak&#39; and &#39;doublethink.&#39; <br /><br />Newspeak does match Prezbo&#39;s intent and purpose, however.<br /><br />And I would classify &#39;bailouts&#39; as doublethink, as they clearly embody contradictory thoughts simultaneously.Downtown Indyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06239811599722585898noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-53634160928813931742009-06-16T07:43:54.188-05:002009-06-16T07:43:54.188-05:00The federal government steps into private business and tries to force lenders to accept 1/3 of what they&#39;re owed. When the lenders refuse to accept the raw deal, forced upon them by a government who has no business involving itself, the people who are getting screwed out of their money are labeled terrorists. Someone named Orwell once labeled that kind of language &quot;doublespeak&quot;.<br /><br />I have to wonder ...if there&#39;s ever a push to limit the 1st or 2nd amendment, does anyone think that those who actively protest will also be labeled as terrorists? Right wing extermists? Enemies of freedom? I&#39;m seeing more and more media reports stating that extremism is reaching the US. Are the mindless masses being prepared to help eliminate folks who protest the elimination of our Republic - the new terrorists?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-31400070170768265842009-06-16T01:14:13.874-05:002009-06-16T01:14:13.874-05:00I am trying to figure out why I am not surprised or shocked in such statements by President Obama&#39;s administration. Am I just giving up? Have I just lost all hope?Baloohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15491703943932248781noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-28202532233145671392009-06-15T21:37:56.105-05:002009-06-15T21:37:56.105-05:00I&#39;m not surprised this administration views normal healthy operation of the country&#39;s judicial system with disdain.<br /><br />Rule of Law?
