Would Now Be The Time To Point Out That The Bin Laden Family Owns A Nice Chunk Of Goldman Sachs?

[Me.]

Here we are with another day being focused on terror while at the same time, big money and the chamber with its foreign contributors are trying to take down and subvert our democracy.

1. Goldman to Al-Qaida:

"Amateurs!"

10. Last time I asked this, it got deleted. Even so, I'll ask again:

are you saying the bin Laden family are terrorists?

[nadinbrzezinski]

6. Officially they disowned the black sheep

Some years back...

[H2O Man]

8. Bush or Cheney?

[nadinbrzezinski]

9. Osama

But you know how officially is not necessarily..

11. Would Now Be The Time To Point Out That We Don't Normally Impute Guilt To "Families"

Well, I guess I know what to say the next time I see a Meghan McCain thread or any quote by Ron Reagan.

12. If I could recommend your post, I would n/t

14. Why stop at "the Bin Laden Family"

I'm sure that the Bin Laden family is related to a lot of other Arabs.

How about if we presume all Arabs guilty of something?

Where does it stop?

13. Meghan McCain is still a Repuke

She might despise Sarah Palin, and think the teabaggers are nuts, but she also still believes her dad is right about everything he's said and done.

Ron Reagan, of course, knows better. But I don't think he (or his sister Patti) ever really were Republicans. Now as for his brother Michael, don't even get a Messiah started on what I think about that schmuck.

15. The point is that we assess people as individuals /nt

18. You Make A Valid Point

Though I did not specifically mention Osama. People are wondering where a lot of the money being used to sway this election to candidates favoring the moneyed class and business interests. There have been indirect references to the chamber receiving money from the Middle East though to be sure no names are mentioned. As for the Bin Laden family they are heavily invested in this country with connections to big business as well as being very closely aligned with the Saudi Royal family. And I find it ironic that in a time of a contentious election we are once again reminded of the terror threat that the M.E. represents. And if one went down the woo-woo trail of conjecture to connect the dots between the Bin Laden family and the Saudi royal family and their connection to Osama, you could make a case (http://www.time.com/time/magazine/article/0,9171,1101030908-480226,00.htmlhttp://www.time.com/time/magazine/article/0,9171,1101030908-480226,00.html).

I am also noting that the group who riled this country up with thoughts of impending terror for 8 years is more than willing to be the benefactors of money with an unknown provenance. And I would be willing to bet that if the shoe was on the other foot a case would be made about dems accepting money that was tied, however indirectly, to the bin laden family. And I'd also be willing to bet that that notion would not be well rec'd at all.

19. I think the closeness of the BinLadens and the Bushes is suspect.

[laughingliberal]

21. Indeed, it is. nt

[jberryhill]

24. You mean... A family in the oil business might have connections with wealthy Saudis?

[jberryhill]

16. The Bin Ladens are related to a lot of Arabs

So, we should assume all Arabs are up to no good unless shown otherwise.

Is that the point here?

17. Not trying, doing. K&R.

20. goldman sachs is dirty enough on their own

I still remember the interview the ceo made
in England stating "I am doing the work of god"!!

I was pissed at the time but after thinking about it
he is correct. He just has a different god, THE GOD OD GREED

As soon as elected officials and the wing-nuts finally realize this
and take them down the better this country will be.

23. Ultra High Net Worth Individuals are puny by comparison.

Illegal wars to back petrodollar hedge funds for billionaires by any other name is, at essence, wealth transfer. Of course, wealth buys power and stuff. Like Washington.



Now which American political dynasty works for these guys?
