			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I&#8217;m sitting here refreshing<a href="http://www.drudgereport.com/" target="_blank"> Drudge</a> and <a href="http://www.cnn.com/" target="_blank">Cnn</a> while simultaneously flipping through all the headline news shows&#8230; and no hoopla!</p>
<p>You&#8217;d think with months of screaming, ranting,<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=er44vr33XIo" target="_blank">crying</a>, and those  tea-parties, someone would have mentioned that we are now  &#8216;less Socialistic&#8217; &#8230;</p>
<p>If I could stomach listening to Boss Limbaugh, I would see if he was sweating and dancing to the tune of Beck&#8217;s  &#8220;Loser&#8221;. Since President Obama has most certainly failed in his attempt to turn the <a class="zem_slink" title="United States" rel="geolocation" href="http://maps.google.com/maps?ll=38.8833333333,-77.0166666667&amp;spn=10.0,10.0&amp;q=38.8833333333,-77.0166666667%20%28United%20States%29&amp;t=h">USA</a> into the county of the New National Socialist Party,  with his ingenious take over of the banks and car companies.. whilst driving the rest of the country into the shittier by stealing our wealth and spreading it amongst the elites&#8230;</p>
<p>but nope, nothing.. instead I get the news from <a href="http://theworldofhowey.wordpress.com/" target="_blank">my favorite &#8216;Mo</a>&#8230;</p>
<h1 style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.reuters.com/article/bankruptcyNews/idUSN1428878920090714" target="_blank">Chrysler Financial</a> repays $1.5</h1>
<h1 style="text-align: center;">bln US gov&#8217;t loans</h1>
<p style="text-align: right;"><em>DETROIT, July 14 (Reuters) &#8211; Chrysler Financial said on Tuesday it has paid off $1.5 billion in loans it had received from the U.S. <a class="zem_slink" title="United States Department of the Treasury" rel="homepage" href="http://www.ustreas.gov/">Department of Treasury</a> in January to fund vehicle loans and incentive programs for Chrysler consumers&#8230;</em></p>
<p style="text-align: right;">
<h1 style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.charlotteobserver.com/business/story/785838.html" target="_blank">BB&amp;T repays</a> TARP money</h1>
<p style="text-align: right;"><em>Seven months after it accepted $3.1 billion from the federal government, BB&amp;T Corp. – a longtime opponent of big government – repaid the money with interest Wednesday.</em></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">$93 million in profit was made off that investment..<em> </em>Not too shabby in my opinion.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">
<h1 style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://columbus.bizjournals.com/columbus/stories/2009/04/13/daily44.html" target="_blank">FirstMerit repaying</a> TARP</h1>
<h1 style="text-align: center;">loan this month</h1>
<p style="text-align: right;"><em>An Ohio bank with more than a dozen branches in the region announced plans this week to repay the federal government’s more than $125 million investment under the <a class="zem_slink" title="Capital Purchase Program" rel="wikipedia" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capital_Purchase_Program">Capital Purchase Program</a>.</em></p>
<p style="text-align: right;">
<p style="text-align: left;">In fact, if it had not been for <a href="http://theworldofhowey.wordpress.com/" target="_blank">the &#8216;mo</a>..and the 2nd story I never would have known that American Express, <a class="zem_slink" title="Bank of New York" rel="homepage" href="http://www.bnymellon.com/">Bank of New York</a> Mellon, Capital One, <a class="zem_slink" title="Goldman Sachs" rel="homepage" href="http://www.gs.com">Goldman Sachs</a>, <a class="zem_slink" title="JPMorgan Chase" rel="homepage" href="http://www.jpmorganchase.com">JPMorgan Chase</a>, Morgan <a class="zem_slink" title="Morgan Stanley" rel="homepage" href="http://www.morganstanley.com">Stanley</a>, Northern Trust, State Street and U.S. Bancorp <a href="http://www.charlotteobserver.com/business/story/785838.html" target="_blank">also announced that they had repaid their loans</a> from TARP, or the <a class="zem_slink" title="Troubled Assets Relief Program" rel="wikipedia" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Troubled_Assets_Relief_Program">Troubled Asset Relief Program</a>.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">I should be surprised that I haven&#8217;t heard anything from the biased and untrue liberal MSM.. right?</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Then again, if the media really was a &#8216;liberal slanted monster&#8217; this would be on every headline news crawler and program just to rub it in to the faces of the Chicken Littles who were screaming that we were being taken over by our government&#8230;ironically while ignoring that were already  <a href="http://thevsj.com/the-special-powers-an-r-next-to-your-name-gives-you" target="_blank">&#8216;taken over&#8217; by our government</a>..</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">I guess they are moving on to make more accusation about the Democrats evil attempt to bring socialism to the shores of the country by giving every baby born, <a href="http://thevsj.com/let-them-eat-cake-and-how-we-barter-in-human-life" target="_blank">house cleaner working</a>, and any one else who likes to choose things for themselves instead of having someone else choose for them, that deplorable option of&#8230;. Health Care. So like everything else we&#8217;ve seen ignored in the last week.. Chrysler&#8217;s repayment will go unnoticed because it&#8217;s easier to keep throwing the kitchen sink of accusations than it is to actually give it a minute to see if it just might work.. It&#8217;s more patriotic to wish failure for the Government attempt to stop the slide into another depression era than it is to say &#8220;OK, that was my bad.. Carry on&#8221;.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Anyway, thank you for the $93 million in profit BB&amp;T.. it was a pleasure doing business with you.. Come again soon.</p>
