The Frank letter has to be the funniest thing I’ve read all day.
“We look forward to your reply and immediate reimbursement of these funds.

Reps. Barney Frank, Carolyn Maloney, Brad Sherman, Dennis Moore, Wm Lacy Clay, Stephen F. Lynch, Brad Miller, Al Green, Gwen Moore, Paul W. Hodes, Keith Ellison, Charles Wilson, Bill Foster, Andre Carson, Mary Jo Kilroy, Steve Driehaus, Alan Grayson, Gary Peters”
Doesn’t Barney know that America has no idea who he is?

I’m with Rick—
Friday night 7pm venue TBD— there are several NYC gatherings planned
scratch that…
Saturday 2pm in front of city hall. Please email nycteaparty@gmail.com for more information.
The Los Angeles location for Im with Rick needs to change to a better place like the Grove/3rd Street/Hwood-Universal
Barney is such an idiot. Ex post indignation. It’s not like the golf tournament was a secret – Mickelson managed to find out about it even before it started last Thursday. And what about the jobs created by this spending? You needed busboys to set out steak knives, roadies to load in Chicago’s amps, course marshals at the golf tournament, and David Feherty. That’s responsible spending.
The second co-signor of Mumbling Barney’s letter represents the Upper East Side in the hallowed halls — which includes TIF. If NYC loses banks and luxury good stores, what’s left for the economy?
Hookers, Fuck Yeah!
Nationalization, Fuck Yeah!
Santelli, Fuck Yeah!
Chuck Prince, Fuck Yeah!
Northern Trust, Fuck Yeah!
Fuck Yeah!
Wait, the market went up when Uncle Benny spoke? Is his losing streak over?
NT’s menu looks positively New Jersey wedding: salmon and steak, a pasta, and a bunch of mediocre vegetable dishes.
Barney should congratulate them on being frugal.
whatever happened to the ShamWow and Snuggie fuckers?
There’s a good chance Rick says a big ole FU to Barney Frank and returns the TARP money…NT made $630M last year, and didn’t want to take it in the first place. Hopefully other banks follow and we can all start doing our jobs again.
@13- This cruel recession knows no limits. Nobody is safe around here.
Who is this Barney dude you all are ranting about? The big purple smurf-type thing on Sesame Street?
shaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaammmWOW
ill chime in with the requisite MAYO.
not sure if that was the substance on barney’s chin.
O/T: Good for New York!: “And so, at the close of the rather distant and disappointing tenure of Cardinal Edward Egan, New York finally gets an Archbishop who might be called the “worthy successor” to the Mighty John Joseph O’Connor one Timothy Michael Dolan of Milwaukee” http://tinyurl.com/ckxgjp
Didn’t know it was socially appropriate to be sleeveless during a Presidential State of the Union address… One would think a suit would be appropriate.
Transparency at its finest. A series of circles. And they should have just gone ahead and labeled the ‘other’ circle ‘earmarks.’

re John School: Nice to know that a blowjob is considered a “crime against nature” in good ole Charlotte. Also, $1,000?! Seems like there are less nearshore savings in prostitution vs. NYC than there is in banking.
Was Nancy wearing a fertilizer sack? Seriously, she was jsut in Italy, she couldn’t buy a current trendy outfit for tonight? She had to wear her “fat dress” cause her week in Italy seems to be showing on her hips.
chit, Bret Baier on Fox just asked David Axelrod “so the nationalization of some banks is not off the table.” Now the answer to that was not the answer as conculuded as it was that axelrod gave. He should have said “no we aren’t nationalizing banks” but he didn’t, he left it open.”
I’m with Rick NYC? Details?
@25- first time on the interwebs? try clicking the link.
@23 that sure was some schmata Nancy was wearing tonight.
EP, thoughts on the address to Congress tonight? Peace Babes.
Tanning as usual,
Tanned Banker
will the nyc tea party resemble the below? please?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PTU2He2BIc0
Messiah, Fuck Yeah!
Nancy, Fuck Yeah!
Recession, Fuck Yeah!
Shamwow!, Fuck Yeah!
Fuck Yeah!
@10 and 30 – Team America always in good taste. Freedom does cost $1.05.
@31- Fuck Yeah!
Really silly question here, but perhaps the grand wizards could clarify something for me:
Why is it popular to bemoan the plight of homeowners whose equity has declined due to no fault of their own, while no one has a problem saying that C shareholders should get screwed in a nationalization?
Before you answer, the trick here is to distinguish between the two.
Thanks much in advance, bunch.

re tea party NYC, be sure to bring your worthless derivative securities for dumping. C stock certificates are also fine.
This behavior demonstrates extraordinary levels of irresponsibility and arrogance.
#33. that’s easy, the “investing class” probably voted republican.
@36, obviously that’s the assumption politicians have made, but I have to wonder if that is the reality. Maybe it’s naive to think that pension funds/mutual funds/institutional investors continue to hold C stock, but it should be clear that many “innocent” (read: democrat) investors have or had an equity interest in C (albeit indirectly) that is worth a lot less than they paid for it.
What about the original tea party set for Chicago? What are those details, anybody heard.
I’m not sure if you guys have seen this photo of bernanke, paulson, chris cox and chris dodd, but it’s fucking hilarious.

everybody poops… on wall st
$1000 for an hour for a hoooker is into ‘porn star’ pricing – Sarah Blake, et. al. He’s getting ripped off…
Since it’s rarely been above freezing in NYC during January and no golf courses in NY are open, does it really make sense is playing golf in the area? Hey, no need to let the facts get in the way of a good story.
About this ‘revolt’:
Where was this rightous indignation from CNBC, a majority of those on Wallstreet and those posting here when the bailout was for the banks and borkerage houses?
I recall all sorts of sky is falling, this has to be done yesterday, ‘what about the children’ type rants….ah the smell of hypocricy in the air. Maybe instead of a tea party it should be a bottle service or Starbucks latte party.
@2 – Inspired, thank you.
@16 – Yes, he’s the big purple dude, and after years of singing “I love you, you love me”, he recently left his boyfriend.
