SHUT UP SIT DOWN AND LISTEN: Paulson Mocked Lewis for Invoking the MAC Clause in BOFA-Merrill Buyout

[tomaforrester]

i hate paulson - everyone hates bank of america now and they have no clue that THIS MAN is the reason BOFA is crumbling. They were forced into acquiring these companies because they were the most sound bank and he knew it wouldn't be smart for Goldman to acquire the banks

[jtizz711]

So we gave more money to the people who already had most of the money anyway?....WTF

[chriscr123]

So this piece of shit walks away with billions of taxpayer money that was stolen plain and simple, and we put some poor guy on the street that gets caught with a couple dime bags of weed in jail for 5 years...no fucking justice.

[youwildman]

MY GODDD! Dennis (our beloved menace) agreeing (following the same line of questioning) as Rep. Issa--NOW you know we are screeewed! If these guys team-up you know the problem is out of control! Some god help us! Ain't Paulsen's name on some of our money? HAHAHAA! Our kids are soooo gonna live like illiterate wage-slaves!

[ricobeco]

Well done Mr. Paulson,, you robbed the American people, not because you are a thief but because we allow you to be one, the American people will not do shit about it because they are paying attention to all the reality shows on air.

Well people this is real if you’re looking for something real and is a great, great show.

LOL…

[TrippingTheTube]

Paulson pretends to sweat. Acts nervous. It's fake.

[topthickproducer]

Paulson is composing lies as he tries to answer and explain his actions.

Oh! It was much easier when no one asked questions!!!!

[8757kathy]

paulson is an evil man and he should be in jail

[obaidkarki]

@8757kathy

he is in jail now. he costs taxpayers more money than guarding the entire bush administration. this why he is on headlines again to tell 300 million fools here i am

i am a nice guy. i came with $50m and left with $5b

[TrippingTheTube]

Paulson is a phoney. He pretends to sweat. and acts nervous. It's fake. He hasn't a worry in the world.

[Tomcaatt]

[dmgcat]

Don't steal our money and be a pussy about it-Jesus! Stuttering whimpering puss-puss...lol. Do these guys have any dignity? Like bugs when you shine the light on them they disperse.

[willyD200]

As you watch these crooks stutter and spew their lies....it's actually Congress that's made of putty and jello!

Congress has NO balls! Bought and paid off, they simply go through the motions of bull shit!

When will actual justice begin ?

[usergently]

Holly shit, it's like watching an episode of Outer Limits when I was thirteen. Creepy!

[jpschubbs]

I'd like to pee on Paulson's bald head.

[scottblur]

Escort right to the gallows!!!

[TheFactsorFiction]

All these videos I'm watching of these meetings I'm seeing these men sound like stuttering idiots. Nervous as heck and totally ready to crack. I'm actually waiting for one of these buzzards to break it all open. This ones old but watch them all they are all blubbering nervous wrecks! Why? Do they know Boy let them sweat it sure is sweet!

[Teigetje62]

Paulson is a crooked asshole when helping his old buddies of Goldman Sachs with a huge bailout.

[strongnoob]

Stuttering much asshole?

Aahahahahahah.

[Inayuto]

helping out the big companies.....what about the small biz owners when they get into $ trouble?? hmmm

[Melpheos1er]

[treid100182]

...Paulson should be #1 on the MOST WANTED LIST.

Pure trash

[obaidkarki]

treid100182

[massimo38]

I heard enough & I REST MY CASE !.

what about HANGING !

Does anyone remember bevis & Butthead school Principal ?

Well ! He sounds just like him......NO ?

[omegapointil]

Paulson is the Madoff of the entire bailout.

[dave777blaster]

24 trillion commited to bailouts

lol

lunatic fringe element of humanity

America is fast approaching the basement of the third world

Bankrupt at all levels

there is 200 trillion in faulty derivatives on the books of the banks

24 trillion isn't even enough to pay the interest on it.

a more dysfunctional people you will not find than those in USA.

divided and conquered they list on the border of the third world

Cheers Obaid

[scottblur]

where is paulson now? he just seemed to have dissappeared.....hmmm

[littlemisspissy]

Why is it that nobody mentions the fact that Paulson had a $700 million dollar conflict of interest in the decision making with regard to the bailout fiasco?

Paulson should be in prison for life.

[geeleegoat]

Here, here, misspissy. And a lot more people. Bloomberg last reported just under 24 trillion with a T for the continuing bailouts. The figure will no doubt rise substantially this fall, coinciding with a monumental collapse of the US dollar. The American treasury has been looted and your children have become indentured serfs for many generations to come. The same thing happening in Canada.

[danben72]

Mr Paulson even with his riches and achievements looks here like an analphabet. And he was Treasury of the USA, so taking it as a reference imagine the state of the Union if not even the world, which is obviously in the hands of some power grabbing inept´s.

[1mealperday]

admires your creativity in presentation.

Paulson has no harmony or flow in his dialogue. I must assume he makes it up as he goes along.Truth has little value here.

[fission2]

"Sleep soundly in the knowledge that the dawn will come. Rest assured that our leaders are watching over us. But beware. For it is only their vigilance that stands between our restful slumber... and the end of the world."

how can you blame others so readily without seeing you own inflections? if we do not remain vigilant, how can we expect others to be? who will ensure our freedom, if not we, free men, and how can we be free men if we do not exercise our ability to make a choice?

[fission2]

it has been too long since americans have needed to think that many have forgotten how to do so all together. they claim to be free but they can't be. after all, what is freedom, but the ability to make a choice? and how does one make a choice if one does not know all the options available?

we must remain vigilant. it is our duty as citizens to govern the government, as it is their duty to serve us. we shouldn't be afraid of our own leaders and we must make a stand.

[chop98]

Loss of thinking is followed by loss of free will. With the loss of free will comes feelings of being caged. Having that feeling of being caged will bring about a violent revolutionary feeling in a lot of people. There will be a third world war from this.

[fission2]

instead of saying 'aig shouldn't get any more money' or 'damn those politicians' we should start thinking of solutions to our ails.

the first step is to doubt and question everything, for that is the only way humans will ever understand something. we should attain objective information rather than listen to pundits.

[fission2]

we're all too focused on finding patches rather than solutions to the bigger problems. we're facing social distress on a global level. there are so many factors leading to our spectacular annihilation.

no society is ever run on their exceptions, but rather their majority. unless we all change and all at once, we're all going to face a grim future. it's time to stop playing the blame game and accept that we're all simultaneously perpetrator and victim to ourselves and each other.

[fission2]

and yet, no one blames themselves, no one admits their own guilt in contributing to their own destruction. instead, americans turn to the only way they know how to deal with their problems: blame it on other people.

it's not just americans either. the fact of the matter is, people have become so apathetic to any influence that they have virtually surrendered their free will. have you ever stopped to think about the situation deeper than what the media keeps churning out?

[fission2]

banks didn't make people take out loans. people deciding to buy that new car or purchase that big house on mortgage did. you want to blame someone? take a big fat look at a mirror and realize that rampant consumerism is what's destroying america.

and we can see the results of these poor decisions. using borrowed money means that interest has to be paid on it, which middle-class and lower-middle classes can't afford. the majority of america is self destructive in nature. the people are at fault

[fission2]

this is ridiculous. it's always easy to point fingers at politicians, bankers and other people of higher social position when the economy turns sour.

the real cause for this disaster? the people. people who lived well beyond their means and depleted their reserves of money, squandered on lifestyles that they couldn't afford and turned to borrow money from the bank to continue their unstable lives, where they can't hope to repay.

[mclaro725]

But its the market capitalistic decision of the banks to lend out this money without checking into these people's financial strengths with the cause and need of gaining the eventual interest off these people no matter how bankrupt these people will get. This free lending idea was encouraged from up top because they new if they were to go under then they would be bailed out. They were never held accountable for legally. True Capitalism would erase the reason for these banks to lend like that.

[AngelAsmodeus]

well well now , you got rith of the outsiders , you have the stimlmus fonds spend ,,,now lets roll the stock martkets over and slide every thing back down to the bottom again.

[imshakinitboss]

What a stuttering, muttering prick.....

[1KuanTi]

Pig5689 with all due respect the FRB and its European owners (Rothschilds) are responsible for the current collapse. The FRB is an organization run for profit, and the purpose of placing all Americans under thier kindom, ruled through debt. Thier are some of the most evil people on the planet. B of A is one of the reasons that the FRB came into being. Thats the rub here Rothschilds suck, as do all thier greedy little soldiers, like Christopher Dodd, Giethner..and the newest recruit Obama...

[pig5689]

Ken Lewis & his gang of executive thieves at BOA are one of the single largest companies responsible for the current economic destruction we're experiencing. For no reason but lust & greed they literally wiped out the life savings & incomes of millions of innocent hard-working families. Why aren't these creeps in jail? Why haven't these bum's personal assets been seized & liquidated? Why is this company of incompetent idolaters of cash even in business? Why haven't they been humiliated publicly?

[shabaash]

Of course only a tiny percentage of Americans is aware of these hearings on the forced purchase of Merrill

Lynch by Bank of America. Americans are the most controlled populace on the planet these days. Well, maybe the North Koreans. Keep 'em busy and in debt and they won't cause any problems while the rich only get obscenely richer. The founders would be disgusted to see what has happened to their noble experiment.

[7514328]

Do you know whats so shameful? So many other countries have invested heavily into the United States and this is the excuse they get? I wish I could pay them back with at least washing their dishes, cleaning their house or cleaning their yards AS AN HONORABLE WAY to uphold my own integrity of this debt, but these criminals in suits and ties have no honor, no integrity or even no conscience to the damages done.

[pure2warrior]

This is no more your debt than they willing borrowed money from the USA. Its debt slave control. Financial tactics used to commit genocide. One big financial illusion to justify extortion. How can you feel responsible? You have been raped.

[pure2warrior]

Exactly what privilege can the Private Federal Reserve Bank Chairman envoke over the Secretary of Treasury in the Executive branch? There will be a day when they will pay for their deeds.

[chewbaca1989]

Witchdoctors the lot of the Banksters.
