The entire story is that the next day, the #2 person in the Fed reversed the examiner's decision and called the head of the bank. If anything, this shows how responsive they are.

How else do you expect a private organization (the Fed) to act, when it is owned by the Rothschilds, the Warburgs, Israel Moses Steiff, Lazard Brothers, and the rest of the Jewish Anti-Defamation League?

Really, folks, I have some great friends who are Jewish and that's not an issue for me -- although my being Christian may sometimes be an issue for them. I am never 'offended' by the sight of a Menorrah or the Star of David. Why they persist in the WAR Against Christmas is beyond me! But there they are, encouraging the ACLU to prevent my dastardly religious preferences from touching their lives in any way.

Maybe it's time I became an ex-pat!

Personally I don't know what the problem is with having the crosses, etc. at the private bank. Maybe.......the only thing that could be a stumbling block for the bank is if they are FDIC insured. Which is a federal institution. But to be honest I'm not in the banking world so I not completely savvy to the rules and requirements of operating a bank.

This is what liberalism is doing to America.

They want us to remove anything that may be offensive to the anti American crowd.

They do not want the words Merry Christmas to be shown, they want to take God out of everything and they are using federal means to try and get it done.

On one hand the radical left wingers want to use Americans history if it fits them and when it does not they want to change America and our history to suit them.

This is a disgrace.

If you do not like to see this stuff do not go into the bank, library, school, etc.

This PC radicalization of America is getting old and it needs to be stopped.
