Rahm Emanuel Hall of Shame * Open Thread

rahm_emanuel_081106_mn.jpgThanks to New Hampster, we have this little tidbit of info, and I hear that the Daily Kossacks are having a HISSY FIT about Emanuel getting this job — those dopes — we tried to tell you KoolAid dipsomaniacs and thugs! At best, Barack Obama is an ordinary politician. At worst, he is so wholly unqualified that he has to hire people who have a clue and who can do things “the Chicago way” and be his enforcers since Obama always out-sources his dirty work! Oh, you idiots!

Emanuel Was Director Of Freddie Mac During Scandal

President-elect Barack Obama’s newly appointed chief of staff, Rahm Emanuel, served on the board of directors of the federal mortgage firm Freddie Mac at a time when scandal was brewing at the troubled agency and the board failed to spot “red flags,” according to government reports reviewed by ABCNews.com. According to a complaint later filed by the Securities and Exchange Commission, Freddie Mac, known formally as the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation, misreported profits by billions of dollars in order to deceive investors between the years 2000 and 2002. Emanuel was not named in the SEC complaint (click here to read (SEC complaint)) but the entire board was later accused by the Office of Federal Housing Enterprise Oversight (OFHEO) (click here to read) of having “failed in its duty to follow up on matters brought to its attention.”

Thanks, NewHampster!

And what other outrages are goin’ on out there?!?!?!?!?

  • Margaret

    Well, I just hope all the ‘Democrats’ who voted for the fluffball Obama are happy with what they’re getting…

  • KathyNeocon

    Yep. Emanuel’s dead steak knife tirade is the spitting image of Robert DeNiro’s Al Capone tirade in the The Untouchables concerning Eliot Ness, “I want his family DEAD” “I want …. DEAD” “I want his house burned to the ground” etc. etc. Like Connery said in than in the movie, “That’s the Chicago Way,” and it’s on its way to the Capitol, thanks to 50M plus Obots.

  • tzada

    What was shocking to me was the Jewish vote being 77% for BO. Guess maybe they knew the fix was in for Rahm.

    Besides BO likes radicals and Rahm’s father Benjamin was a designated terrorist according to the British. Plus BO and Rahm come from the belly of the beast Chicago Politics.

  • bert

    How fitting that Obama picked a Chicago thug to be his chief of staff. Nothing sends a bigger sign of what his administartion will be like than this. Birds of a feather and all that.

    Why do I keep thinking of the Fox being turned loose in the Hen House?

  • http://home.comcast.net/~vincep312 VinceP1974

    The American people are not going to be told the truth about the economic disaster.

    This country should be up in arms, with pitchforks and torches, going to Washington and demanding all of them to leave town or else put on treason charges.

    That includes all of them. Now I have to point fingers at the Democrats for being the ones primarily responsible for the policies at FM as well as the ones who impeded the abuse discoveries and reform.

    But where were the Republicans? True, they held hearings.. they held Raines responsible.

    But did they believe their own words? DId they take themselves seriously when they said tht our entire economy would be at risk if Fannie Mae failed?

    Did they warn the public about what might happen?

    No they didn’t. As is all too common this decade, our Govt has failed to tell the People just what the hell is going on.. and why things are important. This is Bush’s problem too.

    So all of them contributed to this mess.

  • benny

    crazy Rahm as chief of staff. Can anything get worse? It’ll be a dogfight with the repubs. and thank God the dems dont have supermajority. but all decisions will be delayed cos Rahm will bait the repubs, and there will be repercussions. a bad start from obama.

  • KintheNorthwest

    Well, you know, worst case scenario, with Obama, would be him not understanding why he, say, needs to learn the implications of Russian intervention in Iran, feeling resentful he has actual work to do…

    So, it can’t really be THAT bad, now, can it?

  • Soldier of Christ

    Well…what really bothers me is the API report and the Berg ordeal, and of course let us not forget the Corsi crap. All these stuff could have helped the public see the real Obama. What happen to all these tapes and sound bits? Corsi, made such a big show about things that he had- that I believe he was full of hot air- I hope nobody falls and buys his forsaken book. The API looked like some africans just trying to bait the readers, and Berg hasn’t done anything else to bring this up to the BIG SUPREME COURT WHERE CLEARANCE THOMAS RESIDES. I knew the whitey tape was probably real but kept by the Clinton people or others that didn’t want to hurt Obama’s chance- but Berg and Corsi? Whatever happen to these characters? We know what happened to Larry Sinclair- nothing. Nobody believed him anymore or just was tired to giving and nothing happening in the news- Now we have Rahm- the guy who gave a dead fish to a pollster for chief staff- my..my..as the world spins…….

  • tzada

    While we pray Obama auntie fights to stay in this country. Yeah right, we all know that outcome don’t we?
    Maybe BO will let her go in his pace to granny’s funeral and take up residence in the apt she vacated.

  • jbjd

    Maybe because I posted previously that only people so stupid as to have put the fox in charge of the hen house in the first place would subsequently be surprised to discover him feathering his nest.

    Obama giving a speech now.

  • Anomie

    I’ve often wondered why Israel has been silent on Obama, who has anti-Zionist ties (Wright, Trinity, et al).

    Emanuel is a strong supporter of AIPAC – a clear signal to Israel. One could only imagine the back-door communications that took place to foster such placidity in this election process…or not.

  • beebop

    “Democraps” don’t you mean?

  • McPalin

    I sense this pick for Rahm is to cover up the current corruption with Nancy Pelosi & Harry Reid’s finger prints all over this. Nancy is dictating BHO’s picks no doubt. :(

    I was just on the phone with a talent agent in Hollywood at CAA. She and I both know Rahm’s brother Ari, who is major talent agecy owner. First thing she said was “LOSER” laughing at me because OButtcrack won. I told her it wasn’t that HE won, it was that AMERICA LOST. I said nice job on Rahm…She said yeah, she knows. Not a great choice. “Great idea to have someone in the White House who will send a steaming turd to your office if you piss him off.” I don’t think the liberals are happy either. I then told her that I was glad HER party had to clean up the mess HER party made with Fannie and Freddie, and that as soon as O’Buttcrack screws up and bankrupts the nation the GOP will be happy to take over Congress in 2010 and the WH in 2012. That shut her up. I made a bet with her that in six months I will be calling HER the “LOSER.” I love being right, although I am sad that it is at the expense of my country.

  • benny

    Obama passing on the onus to bush. Blame blame blame bush…..is that it? damn, the stock markets are sinking after obamas speech. What the hell is wrong with obama? He should have been more sensitive to the stock markets instead of blaming bush for everything.

    This has been apparently planned for a long time by Soros, who has destroyed so many other countries’ currencies. Like I posted several times…the “Amero” is coming. Soros buying Obama is just another part of the plan to weaken America to the point of being valueless and therefore having to be part of another currency system. It’s a lot sooner than we think.

  • McPalin

    I and many of my friends cashed out our 401k’s before we lose anymore money..or worse have it seized. That’s what’s up with the market. Everyone is cashing out, laying off employees who were Obama supporters, and preparing to pay higher taxes to head off higher taxes by opening offshore accounts.

    I am thankful for Berg’s hard work and at the same time I feel it would be worse for the country at this point if Obama’s citizenship became a major issue.

    I do not like Obama, I never will, but at this point I just want to see what he’s going to do. Let him sink or swim on his own.

My brother in Japan, who is in a entire different time zone said it was bad enough to tell me to take my measly savings out of the bank and put it in a shoe box under my bed! He had like a whole group of people looking LOST standing behind him. He “believes” and “thinks” his tax plain is better? That IS NOT WHAT THE FU@k he said before.

    We are doomed. We are UP SHIT CREEK. This man is lost. When he exited the stage everyone was just looking as if they didnt know what to do next. It’s like he is playing president instead of being one. He had NOOO answers!

  • McPalin

    Does he look like hell? It’s going to get worse. He should be scared right now. He has no idea what he is doing and the world knows it. His coronation reminds me of when I was younger and living in NYC. I bullshitted my way to getting hired for many jobs.
    I had no idea how to do the job so and since I claimed I knew what I was doing, in the final end I looked like a fool and failed. Well I was a young and dumb 19yr old but what’s Barky’s excuse? He’s old and dumb.

  • Zaggs

    Republicans tried. Twice (04 and 06) Hagel, McCain and Dole tried to get legislation passed that would have reformed the GSE’s and put some more oversight on them. McCain signed (if not wrote) a letter in 04 I think to the sectres about it. Democrats like Barney Frank obstructed.
    McCain knew what would happen but the Obots decided it would be better if the guy who got advice from the GSE’s was president.

    Unfortunately all I got was, well am not the President as yet so let the other fella who is still there deal with this mess.

    No I know Bush is still there, and technically he still is our President till Jan, but come on is this all Obama has to offer? My god I must say I thought with all these big economic meeting he was having all the transition bs that I was hearing about for days, I would of gotten more than that.

    Instead I heard his daughter is allergic and he may get this kind of dog or a Mutt like him, as a people are we frigging serious??

  • Dark Knight

    I’m a muslim-american. Many my friends were supporting Obama just cause he seemed like he would be more friendly to muslims. I knew better. The guy is a politician, period. I understand this country’s love for Israel, but I do think that no objective observer can say that America has been even-handed and fair to the Palestinians. But I knew Obama wouldn’t change anything. The only way to change that issues and to realize that often times America might be hurting its own interests if it follows Israel’s is to have a dialogue with the American people without being considered a terrorist sympathizer or anti-semite. We can’t expect any President to tackle this problem. Obama kool-aid drinkers need some help.

  • fluffy bunny

    I’m extremely concerned about the GOP though. A lot of the power brokers over there see the McCain loss as their signal to make the party into the all abortion and gay marriage all the time party.

    I’ll just say no to that.

    So I’m really worried for what kinds of candidates the GOP will put forward in 2010. If they find fiscal hawks, awesome. If they drag out the social cons, well, I’m back with the democrats…if they can find sane candidates.

He has just proved we are screwed on national television. If you could of seen the faces of all those people behind him looking like they were playing “dress up” you would of been sick to your stomach.

  • Mercedes

    Back in the Clinton days, I always kind of liked Rahm Emmanuel….until I found out he had problems with Hillary or vice versa. Hillary I use as a gold standard to judge other politicians because I think Hillary has more integrity than the vast majority of the Washington politicians and because I think she is one of few that genuinely cares about the welfare of this country (versus the coming of the New World Order).

    Emmanuel further dropped in my estimation when I discovered that, as a Congressman, he wasn’t interested in pursuing 9/11 investigations. He further dropped when I discovered he had such a blatant conflict of interest with respect to Israel. He has now further dropped with this current piece of information related to Freddie Mac.

    I read another internet article quoting Lindsey Graham as saying he thought this was a good choice because of Emmanuel’s experience…Graham said he’s tough but fair. I do believe Senator Graham is known as a bit of a hawk. He’s not harping and screaming as I recall him doing in certain other situations. That means something.

    Fine, wonderful, but whose interests is Emmanuel representing? He just might turn out to be Barky Obama’s Dick Cheney.

    What a crock!

  • Soldier of Christ

    I don’t know if this is true- but it came from someone who knows someone from the inside. So, remember I am getting it through 5 people- hopefully I have it right- It seemed that Palin was asked by someone either in her campaign, a supporter or a friend, what she was going to do now that she lost. The person thought she was going to say something about governing or anything else but “I am going to be on the Media.!” Now, remember Palin has a degree in Journalism- and if this rumor is true- G-D BLESS YOU GIRL- GO AFTER THEM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    And check out the transition team standing behind Obama at the press conference.

    Party hacks and CEOs — still think he’s raising taxes on the rich? I don’t think so.

    Here are all the names of his transition team — not one single PROGRESSIVE LEADER in the bunch.

    How long can the KosKids remain in denial — they were Obamaboozled.

    David Bonior (Member House of Representatives 1977-2003)

    Warren Buffett (Chairman and CEO, Berkshire Hathaway)-will participate via speakerphone

    Roel Campos (former SEC Commissioner

    William Daley (Chairman of the Midwest, JP Morgan Chase; Former Secretary, U.S. Dept of Commerce, 1997-2000)

    William Donaldson (Former Chairman of the SEC 2003-2005

    Roger Ferguson (President and CEO, TIAA-CREF and former Vice Chairman of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve

    Jennifer Granholm (Governor, State of Michigan

    Anne Mulcahy (Chairman and CEO, Xerox)

    Richard Parsons (Chairman of the Board, Time Warner)

    Penny Pritzker (CEO, Classic Residence by Hyatt

    Robert Reich (University of California, Berkeley; Former Secretary, U.S. Dept of Labor, 1993-1997)

    Robert Rubin (Chairman and Director of the Executive Committee, Citigroup; Former Secretary, U.S. Dept of Treasury, 1995-1999)

    Eric Schmidt (Chairman and CEO, Google)

    Lawrence Summers (Harvard University; Managing Director, D.E. Shaw; Former Secretary, U.S. Dept of Treasury, 1999-2001)

    Laura Tyson (Haas School of Business, University of California, Berkeley; Former Chairman, National Economic Council, 1995-1996; Former Chairman, President’s Council of Economic Advisors, 1993-1995)

    Antonio Villaraigosa (Mayor, City of Los Angeles)

    Paul Volcker (Former Chairman, U.S. Federal Reserve 1979-1987

    Yet notice NOT ONE PERSON FROM A LABOR UNION!!!

    I repeat not one UNION LEADER in the “Transition Team.”

    I guess Google’s CEO took your place.

    Hey Union guys — seems Obama is ignoring you after you stabbed Hillary in the back.

    And it gets better — this morning on MSNBC they talked about other people rumored to soon be in Obama’s Administration.

    Every last one of them was a CHICAGO POLITICIAN or Chicago “Business Leader.”

    Months ago I said the corrupt Daley-Machine would be running DC if Obama was elected.

    I had hoped I was wrong!

    You know what — the next 4 years could possibly be worse for average Americans than the last 8 years.

    What is even more jacked up is the fact that nine out of ten of those in the military don’t realize how this shit is affecting them. We have this thing called the thrift savings plan and I have been asking for weeks will this financial crisis effect it since we put x amount in each month. I still havent gotten an answer back. Now I am getting worried especially after what my brother said.

    ALOT of military people put money into this savings plan and instead of answers I am getting crickets. My brother said he has been watching closely so I was suprised he said that because he is all about “saving for your future”.I am reading a email now from my aunt in DC in another window and she stated her 401k is gone. I am not even going to pretend I know what all of this means but I damn sure hope someone on here can tell me because they are in panic mode. And it is scaring the crap out of me.

    This blows my mind, that the Berg lawsuit made it up to SCOTUS.

    I doubt they will take Berg’s side, but just the fact it made it to the highest judicial venue of the country is stunning.

  • Susan1968

    Because her 401K was invested in stocks — the stock tank, she loses all the interest and sometimes the principal too.

    You had better check to see if your money is in stocks or a money market.

    Check you balance to see if stock drops diminished your total balance.

    If you can withdraw without huge fees I’d say take your money out and put it in a regular savings account that’s insured.

    Rahm Emanuel … Ah, reminds me of those heady days of Haldeman and Ehrlichman.

The names “Haldeman” and “Ehrlichman” were great, but “Olbermann” and “Axelrod” are even better! Good solid soldierly names. Good names for lieutenants who carry out the dirty work.

    Obama’s Pick for Chief of Staff Tops Recipients of Wall Street Money

    Published by Lindsay Renick Mayer on November 5,
    2008

    A day after being elected president and acknowledging “the worst financial crisis in a century,” Barack Obama asked one of the biggest recipients of Wall Street campaign contributions to be his chief of staff.

    Rep. Rahm Emanuel, the Illinois congressman who was an aide in the Clinton White House, was the top House recipient in the 2008 election cycle of contributions from hedge funds, private equity firms and the larger securities/investment industry–not the most popular of industries in the current economy. Since being elected to Congress in 2002, after working as an investment banker, Emanuel has received more money from individuals and PACs in the securities and investment business than any other industry.

    Does this sound familiar?

    Thanks for the warning. I respect this site and if they say don’t go there, I won’t; but, if I find credible sources on Google that intimate a Chicago politico/mob connection to the murders, I will post. I think its important to remind people that there have been multiple maximum-loss-of-liberties, meaning lives, connected with the people in this election, and its not just coincidence.

    I wouldn’t put anything past the campaign staff and their friends. Its amazing how flamboyant and cavalier they have been throughout, never letting up a bit anywhere in the misdeeds. Do you think they have gone further than what is generally recognized as fact? Hmmm.

    ACORN Rent-A-Mob Demands More Welfare Housing in L.A.

    By Matthew Vadum Wednesday, October 1, 2008

    The vote fraud factory known as ACORN (Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now) is apparently supporting Los Angeles mayor Antonio Villaraigosa’s crazy push for $5 billion in so-called affordable housing.

    As the nation stares into the economic abyss precisely because of housing-related tomfoolery, Villaraigosa’s plan calls for $1 billion in government to be spent as part of the $5 billion housing project.

    The mayor essentially admitted that his plan is insane.

    “I know that budgets are tight . . . credit is almost nonexistent,” said the apparently psychotic Villaraigosa. “But we’re going to reject the cynics . . . and build a brighter future for those kids who are in the corner over there.”

    “And this isn’t the first time Villaraigosa has procured ACORN’s rent-a-mob services.

    According to an LA Weekly report, ACORN received nearly $73,000 from an education-related pressure group founded by the mayor. The money went for campaign consulting services, travel and “meetings and appearances.”

    See why I am not surprised to learn that Mayor Villaraigosa is involved with obama’s transition team?

    2. He has a HUGE plaque of “The Office of the President Elect” on the podium.
    a. Could this be more obnoxious?
    I have NEVER seen another President-Elect do this…
    b. This absolutely shows how self-absorbed and narcissistic this guy really is. DISGUSTING! It screams, “LOOK AT ME!!!”

    I agree that the Republicans should have brought this to the attention of the American people, but I think that you have to consider the climate in this country. Because it was primarily white Republicans up against the likes of Waters, Meeks, etc., and the Community Recovery Act was targetted to help minorities, I think it was one of those untouchable topics in a lot of ways. It would look like EVIL, racist Republicans once again pushing around the little guy. Most politicians don’t like to touch these kinds of issues with a ten foot pole. I think the term is “not politically courageous”.

    What really gags me is to listen to people parroting the “deregulation” thing over and over and blaming this administration and Republicans solely for the meltdown, whilst the likes of Barney Frank, Chris Dodd, and the cat that swallowed the canary Nancy Pelosi stand around looking innocent and pointing fingers. Our media has the country swallowing the kool-aid and making jello shots out of it.

    Yes, the good old days. Are you old enough to remember the song?

    Haldeman, Ehrlichman, Mitchell And Dean
    (written by Bob Warren)
    sung by The CREEP (Mr. G. Records, G-826, c1973)
    transcribed by Annie Sattler

    We’re Haldeman, Ehrlichman, Mitchell and Dean
    The way we’ve been treated is really obscene
    To think that a bug worth hardly a shrug
    Could end up by getting us tossed in the jug

    We all got the gate for no reason or rhyme
    You’d think we’d committed some horrible crime
    Our minds may be dirty, but our hands are clean
    We’re Haldeman, Ehrlichman, Mitchell and Dean

    We’re Haldeman, Ehrlichman, Mitchell and Dean
    Our job was to see that the White House stayed green
    We might have had flaws, like bending the laws
    But God only knows it was for a good cause

    There’s no power shortage where we were concerned
    And what little profit resulted, we earned
    For lovlier fellows you never have seen
    Than Haldeman, Ehrlichman, Mitchell and Dean

    We’re Haldeman, Ehrlichman, Mitchell and Dean
    Our past has been fat, but the future looks lean
    With backs to the wall, we’re taking the fall
    But dammit, we only robbed Pete to pay Paul

    Just when we getting to be well-to-do
    The Watergate turned into our Waterloo
    And now everybody is out to demean
    Poor Haldeman, Ehrlichman, Mitchell and Dean

    Yes, we’re Haldeman, Ehrlichman, Mitchell and Dean
    We’re perfectly willing to spill every bean
    We’ve nothing to hide, with God on our side
    He knows we were only along for the ride

    But so it won’t come as terrible blow
    There’s one little thing that we think you should know
    Whatever we say isn’t quite what we mean
    We’re Haldeman, Ehrlichman, Mitchell and Dean

    Oh yes, we’re Haldeman, Ehrlichman, Mitchell and Dean
    Things won’t be the same when we’re gone from the scene
    But people will still recall with a thrill
    Our sell-out performance on Capitol Hill

    It just isn’t fair to take all of the blame
    When all we were doing was playing the game
    Now all of Washington’s caught in between
    Haldeman, Ehrlichman, Mitchell and Dean

She hadn’t heard of most of them, and I told her that the media (and its controllers) had selected the candidate. She knew I was devastated about Hillary and then thought I would fall in line. Well, I have no intention of falling in line, and I hope that there are others who will stand fast and demand honesty, transparency and competency from this administration.

    Soldier — I wouldn’t take your money out precipitously. If you don’t need money in your 401k for a while (like – a decade), the advice is usually to ride out the bad times because historically (since the 19th century) the stock market has always swung back and the account balances recover. Some people have been writing here that this is different and could be a disaster, I’m not expert enough to know. But please make sure to ask many people who do know before you take a loss by closing your account. My retirement savings, and my husband’s, are in 401(k)s and we’re leaving it put since we won’t be accessing for at least another 10 years…..

    Can someone please ask Jesse Jackson Jr- what is the Universal Citizen Service- and why we all must show our patriotism by following this program? That is our grandchildren and our children.

    Quote: Universal Citizen Service

    If you forget everything else you read in these pages, please remember this: The Plan starts with you. If your leaders aren’t challenging you to do your part, they aren’t doing theirs. We need a real Patriot Act that brings out the patriot in all of us by establishing, for the first time, an ethic of universal citizen service.
    _________________________________________
    Does this mean we have our grandchildren or children serve in the army like in the early 60s by showing our patriotism. Isn’t these the same words spoken in the 60s when we wanted to get the war over and fast and started the draft? Can someone look in the 60s- this sounds very familar to me- I believe I was wearing beads around that time and protesting the war. It sounds very familar to me. Well, I might be wrong- but if it is what I think it means- getting the war over and fast- I will pray for your children and grandchildren.

    She’s really gone to the heart of the problem, which is the message that gets to people. I’m sure we’d all be shocked at how much untruth we’ve been fed in the past if we could know. Personally, I’d like more transparency and questioning of whatever information we’re given, and that’s why I like the blog method. It’s messy, but the interactive nature means people can quickly confront a story. The other hope for information clarity is the ubiquitous video camera.

    The big problem and why he looks so awful…..He has been getting those National Security briefings the past few days and NOW knows just how many countries want to blow us off the map – and isn’t sleeping so well now and……he knows his foreign policy will have to change.

    Oh, and they also probably told him about the aliens in area 51 that are chanting his name because apparently he is “THE ONE” they have been waiting for…….lol. just funnin with ya!

    Three-fourths of the Jewish vote for Bobo?! OMG. Get out the Bible and Nostradamus’s Prophesies! Why on earth would any Jew vote for a man who’s flip-flopped all over the place about Israel? Self-hating ones might, I guess! So much about all this makes no sense!

    Yeah the world knows he’s a dumb! Berlusconi “he’s young, handsome, even tanned” (maybe a celebrity??), Sarkozy “he’s unexperienced”, Russia slap him the first day of his coronation, finnish people made a documentary about obots showing them as they are, monsters. Good enough for a few days and I don’t know anything about China and Japan

    Latinos did their own deal after Clinton’s sink. What did they can do? McCain couldn’t bring them to his side. It was a McCain’s campaign failure

    We know, NONE of the CZARS (OMG) were vetted. Can anyone imagine Rahm Emanuel? What would THAT vetting look like? I heard his father was a hit man for the Israeli government in the 40′s. Rahm is in his element.
