Congress: "Fuck off Paulson!"

House rejects $700B bailout in stunning defeat House rejects $700B bailout in stunning defeat, driving stocks down; Treasury vows more work

WASHINGTON (AP) -- In a vote that shook the government, Wall Street and markets around the world, the House on Monday defeated a $700 billion emergency rescue for the nation's financial system, leaving both parties' lawmakers and the Bush administration scrambling to pick up the pieces. Dismayed investors sent the Dow Jones industrials plunging 777 points, the most ever for a single day.

"We need to put something back together that works," a grim-faced Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson said after he and Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke joined in an emergency strategy session at the White House. On Capitol Hill, Democratic leaders said...

"You Fcuked Up, Suck It Up!"

People say NO to Bailout of financial institutions. No to Bush, Paulson, Bernanke and their Wall St. buddies. Let the shit hit the fan they say!

Seriously, it's kind of too late now. Americans are now in a Catch-22 position. Held by the balls by the Mafias. If the Mother of All Bailouts is passed, taxpayers will suffer later. If it's rejected, they will die faster.

Raja Petra sent to Kamunting, gets two-year detention

KUALA LUMPUR: Malaysia Today editor Raja Petra Raja Kamarudin was sent to the Kamunting detention camp late on Monday night after the Home Minister signed a two-year detention order under the Internal Security Act (ISA).

Under Section 8(1) of the Act, the minister can order a detention if he is satisfied that it is necessary to prevent that person from acting in a manner prejudicial to the country’s security.

Yesterday, DPP Abdul Wahab Mohamad used the new detention order as a preliminary objection to the blogger’s habeas corpus application in the High Court saying Raja Petra was no longer detained by the police under the Section 73(1) of the ISA.

DPP Abdul Wahab said the police no longer had authority over the applicant and that the burden had shifted to the Home Minister.

“Thus, any illegality in the prior arrest and detention cannot be the subject matter of an inquiry; any previous issues which transpired before the issuance of the detention order cannot be subject to judicial inquiry,” he told Justice Suraya Othman.

Raja Petra had filed a habeas corpus application on Sept 16 for his release. The blogger had named the Inspector-General of Police as respondent.

In a supporting document, Raja Petra’s wife, Mable @ Marina Lee Abdullah, said she believed that Raja Petra was detained under the ISA on Sept 12 to silence him as well as to extract information on his sources.

His lead counsel Malik Imtiaz Sarwar argued yesterday that the minister’s order was merely to defeat the wrongful detention application by his client and was unacceptable.

He submitted the minister’s order was inter-related to the detention order by the police, adding the applicant could still challenge its validity.

“It is a very urgent matter and there is no evidence to suggest that he (Raja Petra) is a threat to national security. He just put in his comments,” he said.

Justice Suraya asked both parties to file further written submissions before the hearing reconvened on Oct 28.

Speaking to reporters later, Malik said he would file a habeas corpus application for his client under Section 8 of the Act.

Marina and Seputeh MP Teresa Kok sat with former de facto Law Minister Senator Datuk Zaid Ibrahim in the public gallery and chatted with him.

Marina, 54, said her husband’s detention in Kamunting was politically motivated and that she would never give up fighting for him.

Also in court yesterday were Raja Petra’s two daughters, Suraya, 31, and Sarah, 19.

Exit... Stage Left

Here’s a summerised version of an outrageous story written by controversial analyst Matthias Chang in futurefastforward.com. It’s totally ridiculous!

---------------------------------------------

Humpty Dumpty Sat On The Wall…


The announcement by Sleepyhead that he will be the Defence Minister and that Shithead will replace him as Finance Minister is the surest sign that the Sleepyhead regime is in its last throes.

The Trinity of Power – the Father, the Son and the Son-in-Law and their Singapore controlled advisers have revealed that they are now playing the final card.


Just like the Americans boarding the helicopters from the rooftop of the US Embassy in the then Saigon for a quick exit, while the naval armada was on standby to provide fire-power to cover the humiliating retreat, Sleepyhead and his family have resorted to using the military, if the need arises, to provide protective cover while they and their cronies prepare to divest and transfer out of the country their ill-gotten gains.

It is equally obvious that they have realized that “a bird in the hand is worth more than two in the bush”. What is the use of having all the loot and the key to the treasure chest when there are no exits to enjoy the ill-gotten gains?

In exchange for the key to the treasure chest and the money-making machine, Shithead agreed to hand over control of the military to Sleepyhead so as to allow Sleepyhead and his entire band of looters to exit safely and to pre-empt a coup within the Party.

It is also apparent that in the coming weeks as the global financial crisis gets worse, resulting in a stock market crash and the sudden and irreparable fracture of the banking system, people who have lost their life-savings will demand retribution! The first target of the people’s wrath will be the Finance Minister. In such a situation, the Finance Minister will be overwhelmed by the scope and depth of the crisis.

If Sleepyhead remains as the Finance Minister, he will not have any opportunity to prepare an exit strategy. Better if some one carries the baggage. Who better than Shithead, to provide the cover for the secret getaway?

Given the circumstances, I believe that the Trinity of Power – Sleepyhead, his Son and his Son-in-Law will make their move before the end of the year....

... Shithead, in accepting the post of Finance Minister, has committed a strategic error. When the financial shits hit the ceiling fan, Shithead will be blamed not only for all the blunders committed by Sleepyhead, but also the failure to stabilize the economy. Events will unravel so fast that Shithead would not have the time to marshal the financial resources to fend off the challenge by Coolie. It will be a close call. And even if Shithead succeeds in defeating any challenger, he will not be able to rebuild the party in time to overcome the Opposition by 2012.

Notwithstanding the above, I believe that Sleepyhead has a Plan B.
This is what Sleepyhead said this afternoon:
"It depends on the progress of the role I am giving to Shithead. Let's see what he can do."
If Shithead fails miserably to manage the economy in the next few months, it will be too tempting for Sleepyhead not to use Shithead’s failure to oust him, and with the full might of the military behind him, to declare a state of emergency and reclaim unbridled power. Sleepyhead will then rule with an iron hand!

However, …

She's Free !

Released after 7 days of detention under the ISA.

Teresa: "I was made a scapegoat..."

PETALING JAYA (Sept 19, 2008) : DAP's Seputeh MP and Selangor senior executive councilor Teresa Kok, who was released from a seven-day detention under the Internal Security Act (ISA) today, has claimed that she was made scapegoat in the move to contain the outrage over the alleged racist remarks.

Seputeh MP Teresa Kok makes a gesture during her
press conference at the DAP office today.

"I see my detention as a ploy by Umno to try to cover up the embarassment and the outrage over the racist statements made by (Bukit Bendera Umno division chief) Ahmad Ismail in Penang," she told a press conference shortly after her release at the DAP headquarters here.

"I wonder why they chose an innocent person like me as I have never made any racist remarks or racist speeches in the past," she said, adding that she has instructed her lawyer to sue the government for her unlawful arrest and detention...

Top 9 Giveaway - Body Language Gestures and Signals of a Liar


1 The Visual Expression Giveaway

2 The Doubtful Speech Giveaway

3 The Mouth Covering Giveaway
When a person is lying, he or she will normally cover the mouth with the hand. This gesture is actually triggered by the subconscious mind instructing itself to suppress the deceitful and untruthful words that are being said. There will be times when a closed fist or only several fingers that are placed over the mouth, but its meaning remains very much the same.
On the contrary, let's say should you see someone else doing this while you are the one talking, it will mean that the other person is having doubt and finding it difficult to believe in you.

4 The Nose Touching Giveaway
As the nose is very close to the mouth, rubbing, stroking or scratching of that area is also a common gesture performed by someone who is not telling the truth. Though occasionally there are times when it might just be an actual physical itch at the area that needs to be satisfied by scratching or rubbing.

However, there is a slight difference between a genuine scratching to relieve an itch and a doubtful nose rubbing. A real and actual itching feeling will result in a more obvious rubbing motion, while the self-doubting or deceitful rub will normally be just a light touch or stroke.
Similar to the mouth covering gesture, it can both be used by a person who is trying to conceal his or her own deception, and a person who is suspicious of what is being said by the other party.
