Alan Grayson Da Gawd is back in the house :wow:






He was right then and was proven right again this past election night. The national exit polls on things like taxes and healthcare backed up what the man was preaching 3 years ago.

Chief goon back on deck

:dj2:

29 September, 2009 Rep. Alan Grayson describes the GOP Health Care 'plan': 'Die Quickly' - YouTube

Rep. Alan Grayson on CNN: "Die Quickly" = "GOP Has No Plan" - YouTube

Yeah, everybody freaked out about that don't get sick and if you do die quickly speech that made him famous, but he was exactly right. Talking about he's an extremist and a nut and it was offensive and all this shyt. :sitdown: Jon Stewart pulled a bytch move at the rally he did when he showed that clip next to some deranged Glenn Beck and Hannity screeds.

The Republicans kept bashing healthcare reform, but they had no plan of themselves (well they did have one but Obama adopted it, and then it became "socialism" or whatever). Whenever they talked about what they would do for healthcare, all they talked about was allowing insurance companies to compete interstate and tort reform...like that would do shyt to insure the uninsured, significantly reduce costs, or end denial of coverage for pre-existing conditions.

So yes, essentially they were telling you don't get sick and if you do, die quickly. He was fukking right. People need to speak truth harshly sometimes.

Citing the Wall Street Journal on this matter is like citing The heritage foundation on Obamacare.

The fact is that Grayson was more challenging the authoritive decision making behind it.

:rudy: All the WSJ article did was provide a brief, very general explanation of how the swap lines work. Do you want me to post an article from the New York Times that says the same thing only more detailed because I'm sure I can find the article there when I first learned about this back in 09 if I searched.

How about you cite me some peer reviewed economic papers on this matter. Not saying you're lying but as Matt Taibbi has shown, some of these newspapers and investment TV shows turn a blind eye to many things.

Like you would understand those papers. You probably don't understand anything on that WSJ article either. Stop wasting everyone's time.

ONE of many PEER Reviewed Journals:

Understanding these motives for reserve demand also shows that central bank swap lines to some smaller advanced countries have been sizable as a share of 13 current and needed reserves. For most EM countries, though, the swaps have been largely symbolic. The scale of reserves needed to backstop emerging markets simply surpasses the resources of the multilateral organizations and all but the largest reserves holders in the world.

Provide a legitimate source or shut the fukk up.

I doubt that you'll be in any better position to have a serious discussion about things like swaps if I start posting random papers, than you are right now. Which is to say, not at all.
