Another story in the ongoing CRIMINAL FRAUD PROTECTION RACKET President Obama is running for Golddamn-Sachs: California taxpayers ON THE HOOK for MILLIONS from Golddamn-Sachs FRAUDULENT bond sales...

 Mr. Obama IS RUNNING A CRIMINAL FRAUD PROTECTION RACKET for Goddamn-Sachs, JPMorgan-Chase, and Citi-bank, as YET ANOTHER  financial news story illustrates:
California Bonds Fail on "ADVICE" from Goldamn-Sachs
By Michael B. Marois
Dec. 17 (Bloomberg) --

For California Treasurer Bill Lockyer, the offer from Goldman Sachs Group Inc., JPMorgan Chase & Co. and Citigroup Inc. was too good to refuse. 
If California were willing to FORGO COMPETITIVE BIDDING  for a $4.5 BILLION bond offering, the banks PROMISED  more orders from individuals and a lower bill to the taxpayers. The firms insisted that by negotiating with them, the state would benefit from its special relationship with the Wall Street troika and wind up with what two underwriters called a salutary “buzz” to boost demand for the debt. 
When the October offering failed to sell as planned, California was forced to accept 8 percent LESS MONEY  than it needed and to PAY  as much as $123 million MORE in interest than the banks said was sufficient for the market. And the threesome made $12.4 million on the deal, contributing to record bonuses in the securities industry a year after getting a total of $80 billion in a federal bailout. 
  Well, at least the Bloomberg article doesn't perpetuate the US mainstream WHORE media FRAUD and propaganda,  that Golddamn Sachs, Citi, and JPM-Chase "only"  took $20 billion each in bailouts.... here the number "$80 billion in a federal bailout"  doesn't specify which company got how much,  but $80 billion is a hell of a lot more than $60 billion.
