Abolish the FED and such STUPID FUCKING ARTICLES would never exist.

Person of the Year 2009

The story of the year was a weak economy that could have been much, much weaker. How the mild-mannered man who runs the Federal Reserve prevented an economic catastrophe

Ben Bernanke
By MICHAEL GRUNWALD Wednesday, Dec. 16, 2009


A bald man with a gray beard and tired eyes is sitting in his oversize Washington office, talking about the economy. He doesn't have a commanding presence. He isn't a mesmerizing speaker. He has none of the look-at-me swagger or listen-to-me charisma so common among men with oversize Washington offices. His arguments aren't partisan or ideological; they're methodical, grounded in data and the latest academic literature. When he doesn't know something, he doesn't bluster or bluff. He's professorial, which makes sense, because he spent most of his career as a professor.

The zios are starting to get sloppy.
They have gotten used to people buying their BS, no matter how outrageous.

Shovel out trillions of dollars to rich fat cat bankers
and then poof....you are person of the year.
This really is over the top!

I believe it, these are the same people that proudly claim "they are doing God's work", i don't put anything past them. for God's sake, how much more proof of their audacity than when they gave Obama the Peace Prize at the same time he announced an increase in troop deployment.

we are living in "1984", where war means peace, etc, etc!

Noel, did you ever think that our world would become THIS surreal?  I am asking a REAL question, and not a rhetorical one.  "I" could never have imagined that "the people" would be so stupid as to have allowed this, much less accept it by "their" silence.  I look for HOPE whenever and wherever I can find it, but the events of the past year have made me much, much more pessimistic because if the shit has gotten THIS bad in just a year or so, what is NEXT YEAR going to be like?

God help us all, because whether we like it or not, we are part of "the people" that are dragging humanity down with them by their ignorance, stupidity, and/or acceptance of their *OUR* fate by the Talmudists/Zionists who are going to fulfill their Protocols one way or another.  How much worse can this get than having one of the biggest people responsible for the financial misery of "the people" across the planet be named "Man of the Year?"

"Ben Bernanke has been named Time's "Person of the Year," for his aggressive actions to stem the global financial crisis.
"His creative leadership helped ensure that 2009 was a period of weak recovery rather than catastrophic depression, and he still wields unrivaled power over our money, our jobs, our savings and our national future," Time's Michael Grunwald writes. "The decisions he has made, and those he has yet to make, will shape the path of our prosperity, the direction of our politics and our relationship to the world.""

OUR SURREAL WORLD.  "I" never would, or COULD, have imagined that the world as we know it would literally be like a three-ring circus where you would laugh at how absurd things are, but really should be crying at how pitiful the whole specacle truly is.  My GOD...what are things going to be like FIVE years from now?  Shit...ONE year from now?

hey Reboot, you should probably change your name to "repost", because that is exactly what you did.
