About freakin' time - hope this gets good exposure.

Our elected take an oath to serve. Time to add: “I will not serve in a capacity which I am not able to comprehend or am incapable of by mental defect of any kind, nor will I use the excuse of intellective deficiency if found in violation of this oath/affirmation”, which backs charging wayward politicians with treason.

Said by others, but there's not enough McCotter's yet. Still, you know, I actually want them to try to sneak TARP funds through Congress as a side package within another spending bill. I just can't see it advancing through getting caught and the outrage would be palpable to such a degree, it could just be the catalyst that missing to get the armies of protesters out and to turn things around faced with millions of pitchforks. Perhaps hopeful thinking, but there's a decent chance that this could be the result. McCotter alone would do the exorcist head spin on this type of deceit.

Wow, McCotter is directly referencing The Ticker in his press release! Way to go Karl!
A question though, in the ticker it says that there is a video in the attached link. I don't see any link to a video. Can someone point me to where it is?

http://finance.yahoo.com/tech-ticker/art....Video is in upper left corner. Should start playing when you open the page. I gave McCotter Karl's Tickers (2 of them) and the IRA report last week and told him to contact Chris Whalen. McCotter was on 5 shows yesterday. Bloomberg, CNBC, Fox (2), and CNN (Lou Dobbs). I'm working on getting all of them together.

I was afraid to hope when I got his e-mail that this was what he was going to do. He did way more than I could have imagined.
I have a feeling Chris Whalen gave him some good stuff too.
Oh yeah, and I gave him the PPIP Report from IRA and your Ticker on that.

McCotter is the real deal. I've been listening to him for a number of months now and actually now subscribe to his account at youtube because he's just so 'on message'
He and Tom Coburn can stay IMHO. The rest need to go! We need more like him!

Good man. It'll take this type of creative self-destruction by selfless public servants (once called patriots) who are willing to destroy it all including their futures, their constituencies, in order to re-create an effective new Republic.

I live in McCotter's district he is well received and has personally helped my uncle and a co-worker. He's a real go-getter and quite smart.
Most of these wankers in Congress are corrupt, stupid, and arrogant.

Pauperbear: http://mccotter.house.gov/HoR/MI11/Newsr....At the bottom (and it's linked): Quote:According to articles from The Market Ticker and The Business Insider, many GM bondholders could hold credit default swaps (CDS) with Troubled Asset Relief Program (TARP) recipient AIG on GM debt. Secretary Geithner has previously stated that, due to the injection of taxpayer dollars, AIG “fully met its obligations” – in sum, it paid 100 cents on the dollar on AIG’s CDS contracts. Thus, if GM enters bankruptcy, GM’s bondholders with CDS contracts from AIG could be assured of getting all their money back – if not more – because the American taxpayer is now guaranteeing these contracts with AIG.

I sent him a letter of thanks this afternoon. The cool thing is, I've now got a direct open line to him - so we DEFINITELY have someone to send important information to.

McCotter is terrific.
What I find depressing is...the level of his clarity of thought and principle resides in a mere single digit number of representatives in the sleazepit known as the US Congress.
