Romney Vowing Dodd-Frank Repeal Hits JPMorgan Inconvenient Truth

Full story: www.sfgate.com

Mitt Romney says he wants to talk about the economy in this presidential campaign, including his call to repeal the Dodd-Frank financial regulation law. JPMorgan Chase & Co.'s $2 billion trading loss in risky transactions isn't the sort of conversation he had in mind.

"Anytime you have a development that suggests businesses take unnecessary and unwise risks, you give ammunition to Democrats and cause problems for the Republican narrative," said Stu Rothenberg, editor of the nonpartisan Rothenberg Political Report. "I think Romney will have to deal with it."

This election is about SOCIAL ISSUES. I agree with Bishop Romney that unmarried gay people should be able to adopt, but they should not be able to marry each other. That's just WRONG. Try reading the Book of Mormon, you might learn something and maybe even get a job in the Bishop Romney administration! Embrace CHANGE, RESTORE AMERICA. Our nation was founded on Mormon theocratic principles. We are a REPUBLIC, not a democracy! Bishop Romney is the CHOSEN one, our sacred leader.

This is joke. You are trying out a comic routine...right? Needs work. The Bible is an entertaining( if you like adventure stories) book on a par with Dr. Doolittle, Three Muskeeters, and as a movie somewhat like those Depp pirate films. That is it. Read Mailer after you finish Catcher in Rye...if not burned in your town.You actually believe in this shit...Scaaaaary

WASHINGTON (Reuters)- Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke reminded lawmakers at a closed-door meeting on Thursday that failing to address automatic spending cuts and tax increases at the end of the year could damage an already fragile economic recovery, congressional aides said.

The Fed chairman has repeatedly sounded a warning that congressional inaction on what has come to be known as "the fiscal cliff" could dent growth if left untended.

"It is very important to say that if no action were to be taken by the fiscal authorities, the size of the fiscal cliff is such that there is, I think, absolutely no chance that the Federal Reserve could or would have any ability whatsoever to offset that effect on the economy," he said at a news conference last month

According to Peter Schiff, president of Euro Pacific Capital, those of you looking to learn what's happening in the U.S. are better off paying attention to almost anything other than Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke's Congressional testimony. "You might be able to to trade off what he has to say but it doesn't have any bearing on what's actually happening," he states.

Peter Tucker, your comments couldn't get any dumber.

Dodd-Frank prevented JP Morgan's loss exactly how? Fascists tend to hold the moronic belief that if only they got to pass one more regulation micromanaging the economy, all the ills that they pretend to address would somehow go away. The net result is that the economy gets hamstrung even further, with little, if any, protection beyond that already afforded by laws against fraud and theft.

Have Corzine, or one or more of his flunkies, been arrested yet, or is he too Democratic for justice to be done?

Daily Horoscope for May 18

Gemini

Try as you might, you won't be able to convince a certain person to see things from your point of view. This character is far too busy letting you know that they're an individual in their own right and they won't be tied down by you. The more you push, the more they'll rebel, so try not to incite further displays of outrageousness.
