No, just gullible people who'd believe EVERYTHING they are told from their sheep herders. Problem is, there are an awful lot of them out there. Ever notice how they back up or shut up when they're confronted with questions they can't answer? Which, most times, is 'bout every question asked.

The simple, gullible republican mind is a terrible thing to waste and it's wasted every day.

EU----what's that? Oh, funds flow from EUROPE, not the United States. And one journalist thinks that for some reason not being on the US terrorist watchlist means no lawsuits can be filed. Why can't lawsuits be filed? What does the watchlist have to do with lawsuits?

Hell, FOX News(?) hasn't even hit on it! That's right up their fair and balanced alley. If it were credible they'd be on it like a fly on manure.

The Secretary of the Treasury, Timothy Geithner, is appointed by and reports to the POTUS, Obama. I thought that I made that clear in my original post. I gave you the dots, even connected them for you.

I don't have much of an opinion to its credibility. It doesn't seem to have been picked up by any MSM, so it's difficult to say.

I'm just going off of what the article says, and it claims that since the Department of the Treasury removed these individuals from the watchlist, funds from the EU would be able to flow directly to them now. The article doesn't give a lot of information as to what being on the watchlist has to do with international lawsuits and/or how the two are intertwined. There are indeed some unanswered questions.

The terrorist list is meant for distribution in the world banking system, where the transfer of funds to anyone on the list is prohibited.
That part I get, but the lawsuit thing, not so much.

Ok for all of you who just love to latch on to these little half baked reports...why do you think that the Department of Treasury would have control over who is on the terror watch list?

I can think of two:

1. The assumption that they have hearts to put their hands over.
2. They are using their left hands.

DoctorIQ..that gentlemen in the right balcony, give him TWO SILVER DOLLARS!

#2. is of course correct; however it may not be good judgement to acknowledge your sentiment in #1. as there is a new rule implemented here by ADMIN...Now where is that sign they told me to post? Oh! there it is...Mr. whatyousay, we do not want to encourage assessments now for some of the posters here, do we?

If Obama was a closet muslim, a secret Islamofascist sympathizer, what would Obama be doing any different?

And for all the Jews who voted for Obama, I hope you are having second thoughts.

From hussein obama's own mouth he said he was a muslim. The enemy is in the white house.
