Top Pubs want the Failing Banks ...NOT TO BE RESCUED..Let Them Fail...WHY??

[opihimoimoi]

Do they hate the employees? Why are they hating the employees of these Banks?

[Skittles]

1. they want it to be perceived as Obama's fault

they hate America

[opihimoimoi]

17. President Obama thinks whats best for the rest of us...The GOP thinks whats bes for them

[Skittles]

20. exactly

come opi, we kick some treasonous ASS

[AndyTiedye]

2. They Are Holding SHORT Postitions On the Banks They Want To See Fail

[opihimoimoi]

3. Grammy always said "No,......... Never Trust the Republicans..They Cheat"

[Political Heretic]

4. IT's CODE for NATIONALIZATION - banks that "fail" get taken over by Fed.

They don't disappear.... when they fail the FDIC swings in and takes them over.

It's basically another way to say the government should be taking control of the banking situation. They can be for it without sounding like anti-free market socialists :)

6. Since less than 1 percent of all U S banks have failed so far is confirmation

only the Greedy Banks went too far in risky loaning...and was insolvent...

[dkf]

5. They want Obama to be blamed for collapsing the economy.

He really can't listen to them. They have their own agenda.

[terisan]

7. The Big Banks have failed and continually giving billions to them will bankrupt the US.

We don not even have the complete list of where all these billions are going and you want to us to keep shouldering their crazy debts?

It makes more sense and is cheaperto provide the employees with a temporary work sponsored by us than to throw money at companies and investors who were foolish.

[PBS Poll-435]

8. They want anything and everything negative economically to be tied to Obama

That is your answer plain and simple.


And seriously, with the exception of IndyMac, I have yet to see a major bank "fail" on its own. (Not without a 'lil help from Bair & Co.) I don't think it is going to happen.

[opihimoimoi]

18. The GOP is on a low level of governance....very selfcentered and greedy

[Hamlette]

9. because they don't understand "federally insured deposits" and they want to be contrary

they want to say they were against it.

[FrenchieCat]

10. They are traitors to this country!

[opihimoimoi]

16. The GOP has morphed from the 1950's GOP into a Selfish Monster of today

Their greed has taken hold to extreme levels....

[theboss]

11. Some of these banks need to fail.

I only see one of two options.

Either the Government buys up all the toxic assets and does who the fuck knows with them.

Or the Banks go belly up and we deal with the aftermath.

Either way, we are walking some sort of middle ground right now that makes little sense.

[RememberWellstone]

12. I agree

Let them wallow in their pile of shit.

They want government to do everything for them...enough is enough.

[wiggs]

13. If Obama wanted them to fail, the pubs would want the bailout. Simply, they

will take the opposite view that Obama does so they can whine, complain, point fingers.

[opihimoimoi]

15. GOP...Group of Pissers.....thats what they do...piss on everything opposite of their views

[Supersedeas]

14. some banks -- they want to be able to pick the winners and losers -- like Bushler did

[Jennicut]

19. The banks get off easy this way because we will step in anyways

to nationalize them. Thus, they face no consequences like stress tests.
