Default America's bank, now lending money at 0% rates!

Hi all,

Well our nation bank, the Federal Reserve is now lending dollars to foreign and domestic banks at a whopping ZERO percent interest rate!

3 yearts ago, if I said the Reserve would be lending dollars at ZERO, you would have thought World War III had broken out!

Here is the link:

The next step is for the fed to start buying up assets.

Hmmm hmm deutschland hmmm hmm hmm deutschland ... so how does it feel to be an American NAZI?

Bob

I still want to know when Hussein Obama is going to fill all my tanks and pay my mortgage...
Think he'll give me a guv'ment loan/bailout to buy rocket motors for the fleet?

Why call the President-elect by his middle name? And surely you aren't blaming him for any of this!

96% of the folks call the current pres. by a slang version of his middle initial, and did so before his first term.

Josh is in it playing President Bush, but it's that doofus Oliver Stone who made the movie. I put him right up there with that other doofus filmmaker, Michael Moore.
