EXCERPT: Jon Corzine has resigned as MF Global Holdings chief executive officer and chairman, the brokerage firm said Friday. The former New Jersey governor and Goldman Sachs GS chief confirmed he will not seek severance pay in connection with his resignation from the bank, which filed for bankruptcy protection on Monday. In the press release, Corzine said: "I have voluntarily offered my resignation to the board of directors of MF Global. This was a difficult decision, but one that I believe is best for the firm and its stakeholders. I feel great sadness for what has transpired at MF Global and the impact it has had on the firm’s clients, employees and many others," he said in the statement. "I intend to continue to assist the company and its board in their efforts to respond to regulatory inquiries and issues related to the disposition of the firm’s assets."
HOW MANY people are going to be screwed over by this? THAT is the question that is unasked by the Liberal Lapdog media who cares more about the bullsh*t sexual harassment story concocted by a few bimbos, one of whom is a registered Dummycrat, than this major issue.
This is what LIBERALS DO folks. They come in, they start running things, they screw them up, and it is off to the next bright and shiny new toy without a backwards glance, leaving hate and discontent in their wake. Rest assured, Obama, when the douchebag gets the boot in 2012, he will run straight to the UN or Daddy Soros for a job, without a care in the world for what he did to the USA.
Moreover, they never get punished for it, in the press or in real life.
Oddly enough MF Global employees shelled out HUGE BUCKS, just like Goldman/Sachs did to the Keynesian Kenyan! Now the Gunny went straight to "Open Secrets" to research just WHO in the now defunct company the employees donated to but they had already beat the Gunny to the punch!
Dig this:
EXCERPT: "Brokerage firm MF Global filed for bankruptcy earlier this week, in what will likely be one of the ten largest bankruptcies ever, the Wall Street Journal reported. But before its collapse, MF Global's employees gave generously to politicians at the federal level -- and almost all of that campaign cash benefited Democrats once former New Jersey Gov. Jon Corzine became chief executive of the company. According to research by the Center for Responsive Politics, MF Global employees have contributed $408,000 to federal candidates and political parties since 2007. That sum includes $38,000 in donations to President Barack Obama, who is the largest recipient of MF Global employee contributions."
FOLLOW. THE. MONEY.
It is hilarious to hear Dumbo in the WH mewl and whine about Wall Street even as he and the rest of Crime Incorporated LINE THEIR POCKETS with money from Wall Street. This should NOT be a surprise for us as Dems have passed laws giving them a NINE PERCENT HIGHER return on the stock market for them over us average Joes and Janes! This is little different than the money laundering schemes that Crime Incorporated, formerly known as the Democrat Party, has with Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, skimming the profits like mobsters in Las Vegas for funds. Or their other big money laundering scheme is giving contracts to their union buddies and getting the dues from the workers back as campaign contributions from guys like Stern and Trumka!
The corruption of the Left is almost as bad as their abject stupidity or lack of patriotism.
Funny to think that Corzine and Obama are real butt buddies and if only thte Liberal Lapdog media could commit a random act of journalism here...
EXCERPT: "It's worth noting that Corzine is himself a major Democratic contributor and ardent Obama supporter. Indeed, Corzine's own penchant for donating to Democrats is in large part responsible for the left-ward shift in the company's overall employee giving. The former Garden State governor and his spouses (Corzine is currently married and has divorced once) have given more than $917,000 to federal campaigns and political parties during the last two decades. Corzine and his spouses accounted for $101,000 of all MF Global employee contributions during the 2010 election cycle and $53,000 of donations occurring this year. All of those contributions benefited Democrats.
So much for Wall Street being in the pocket of the GOP. But wait, Corzine DID give $2,500 to a GOP candidate by the name of Mitt Romney even as he bundled almost 500 GRAND for the Kenyan Usurper.
Like the Gunny has said over and over, Romney needs a D behind his name.

ReplyDeleteCondsider this guy was dang near tapped, and on the O-list for appointments according to many. He acknowledged as much himself.

Now that I recall, it was month or so back when all the talk was about the possibility of turbo tim stepping down or getting fired. Corzine's name popped up almost instantly. Then Obama said he had a lot of confidence in Turbo. And apparently Jon-jon had some clause in his contract.
ReplyDeleteJeff-- PBR
(Romney needs a D behind his name) Or 12D's in it.
ReplyDeleteGunny, so many ways of laundering and funneling money, so little time. I believe that the Dem's run the biggest crime machine in the World. Without this machine, which includes the MSM giving cover to all of the lies/propaganda, they would have no chance to hold any power...as the people would not allow it! God Bless the United States of America

ReplyDeleteYou aren’t supposed to notice that.
Craw,
ReplyDeleteNo, it is pretty much the Liberal's M.O. for the last 75 years or so. Hell, they've been skimming Social Security since its inception.
Jeff,
ReplyDeleteThat is liberalism for ya. They are crooks and liars covering for liars and crooks. They switch off every now and then to keep it real.
TGP,
ReplyDeleteIndeed. What an absolute fraud although I'd bet McShamnesty took money from scum like Corzine.
Guess screwing up GS and the state of Noo Joisey wasn't enough. This guy comes knocking on your door for a job,hit him over the head with a bat.Typical lib. Crash it and burn it,then walk away.
ReplyDeleteTexMan,
ReplyDeleteGood post. Hell, we're just scratching the surface! From Soros on down, they have a river of dirty money flowing into the pockets of these corrupt bastards.
CW,
ReplyDeleteYeah, no doubt Dumbo pull a Hanoi John Fonda Kerry and tell us that he was against this stuff but its Bush's fault he takes it.
