Eric Cantor, Paul Ryan & Kevin McCarthy: Plot To Sabotage US Economy with Frank Luntz
by keepemhonest


On January 20, 2009 Republican Leaders in Congress literally plotted to sabotage and undermine U.S. Economy during President Obama's Inauguration.

In Robert Draper's book, "Do Not Ask What Good We Do: Inside the U.S. House of Representatives" Draper wrote that during a four hour, "invitation only" meeting with GOP Hate-Propaganda Minister, Frank Luntz, the below listed Senior GOP Law Writers literally plotted to sabotage, undermine and destroy America's Economy.

The Guest List:
Frank Luntz - GOP Minister of Propaganda
Rep. Paul Ryan (R-WI)
Rep. Eric Cantor (R-VA)
Rep. Kevin McCarthy (R-CA),
Rep. Pete Sessions (R-TX),
Rep. Jeb Hensarling (R-TX),
Rep. Pete Hoekstra (R-MI)
Rep. Dan Lungren (R-CA),
Sen. Jim DeMint (SC-R),
Sen. Jon Kyl (AZ-R),
Sen. Tom Coburn (OK-R),
Sen. John Ensign (NV-R) and
Sen. Bob Corker (TN-R).
Non-lawmakers present Newt Gingrich

During the four hour meeting:

The senior GOP members plotted to bring Congress to a standstill regardless how much it would hurt the American Economy by pledging to obstruct and block President Obama on all legislation.

These Republican members of Congress were not simply airing their complaints regarding the other party's political platform for four long hours. No, these Republican Congressional Policymakers, who were elected to do 'the People's work' were literally plotting to sabotage, undermine and destroy the U.S. Economy.

1. This borders on treason and needs to hit the MSM! n/t

[NCcoast]

14. I agree it is treasonous. They set out to harm the people of the USA to gain political power.

They should be charged and tried. Oh yeah, Eric Holder is the Attorney General. I guess we'll have to plant some weed on them.

And they'll get away with it because media deregulation means the MSM will look the other way. IOKIYAR "It's OK If You're a Republican"

I'm so sick of this stuff. Something has got to give.

[Qutzupalotl]

22. Eric Holder, you mean.

[NCcoast]

25. Oops.... thank you

[freshwest]

26. Geithner has framed close to that in his letter in May to the GOP leadership. We'll see what they do

[rfranklin]

2. They are using the Taliban as their model!

That is fucking incredible and should be publicized as powerfully as possible.

[flamingdem]

4. K&R

They can't get (and keep getting) away with it!

[Dont call me Shirley]

18. They're using the taliban model because ghwbush set up the taliban during the russians

war in afghanistan. He also set up alqaida. He made an emphatic statement in the early 90's about achieving a "new world order" and this is all part of his daddy prescott's notseefacio plan.

[JohnnyRingo]

3. Or as Frank Luntz would put it...

"creating an atmosphere that discourages Obama's efforts to steer the great American economy off course".

See how that works? Frank Luntz is one of the most dangerous Republicans in 21st century politics. Though I wrote the above myself, it shows how Luntz can convince typical Fox viewer Joe Moran that it would be bad for the president to reverse a failed Bush economy.

5. i think we need a movement

to advocate for justice - to treat these crimes as the crimes they are, and get the justice department to prosecute them as such. what will it take.

[slackmaster]

6. THEY'RE AFTER ALL OF US!

[OKNancy]

7. April article about the same book

8. Options for change

To those who want everything to be simple & easy, here's my response.

Do not spend any money in Republican business or with their supporters.
I have ostracized Republicans from my life.
It's nice to have that anger & hate out of my life.
Now that's change!

I'm sure there are those that can find excuses to not take these actions.

[calimary]

9. And why is this not getting any publicity? WHERE ARE THE DEMS???

WHERE the fuck are you, DEBBIE?

WHERE is our taking their fiendish strategy and shining a big fat light on it and turning their strength against them????? WHERE???


I swear to God - I STILL maintain we need our own kkkarl rove. We do. We just do. We just frickin' HAVE TO stop bringing feather dusters to gunfights. It's just simply got to stop!!!

[Capt.Rocky300]

10. We did have our own version of

Karl Rove, Howard Dean. His talents were not appreciated by the Obama administration.

[bluesbassman]

13. Care to elaborate on how you make that comparison? n/t

[Capt.Rocky300]

23. Sure.............

They are both smart people who know how to get things done in the political theater. Dean operates in an upfront, honorable way with noble intentions. Rove in a secretive, dishonest way with concern only for the 1%. And, if anyone has the best chance to defeat Rove's agenda, it would be Howard Dean. The great job he did with his 50 state strategy is the basis for my opinion. Whether or not he could succeed again will remain a mystery as he seems to be out of favor with the DNC.

[bluesbassman]

24. Thanks, and I agree with you assessment. n/t

[chervilant]

29. Dean is

out of favor with the Blue Dogs and the DINOs, many of whom are 1% wannabes.

The Corporate Megalomaniacs who've usurped our media, our politics, and our global economy are laughing all the way to their banks, because their divisive game is working wonderfully well to keep the Hoi Polloi bickering amongst ourselves.

[PopYoColla]

11. of course they did that...

Bush wrecked the country soooo bad, the US was willing to elect a black man with the middle name Hussian president.....

They knew if he was perceived to be doing a good job and cleaning up the GOP mess, who would ever want to vote for them again???

The only way to get back was to say "We know we messed up, but look at him"...
Which is exactly what they did...

Sabotage him and at the same time blame him for the mess they created....

People in this country are truly dumb....

[SleeplessinSoCal]

12. Quick! Alert the Media!

[The Wizard]

15. Shoot them

Shoot them all. This gang looks like the inhabitants of Dante's Ninth Circle.

[jtuck004]

16. Got Drones? n/t

[WCGreen]

17. No women, go figure and where is JC Watts...`Hmmm!!!

No women, no minorities, hmmmm......

[a kennedy]

19. D*mn them......

[Fantastic Anarchist]

20. Traitors ...

... but in some instances, Obama let them do this in the spirit of "bipartisanship." Democrats hold some of the blame for lacking a spine.

[Doctor_J]

21. true that.

These are the people he's been "compromising" with.

[freshwest]

27. There were similar meetings in private across the nation sponsored by the Koch brothers then, too.

[CrispyQ]

28. Kick, kick, kick & fuck, fuck, fuck our media!

these Republican Congressional Policymakers, who were elected to do 'the People's work' were literally plotting to sabotage, undermine and destroy the U.S. Economy.
