Call the FED Lobbyist Linda L. Robertson

The Enron lobbyists gang should be under investigation, not lobbying for the Fed.

I think it's good to put a face on the enemy.

The enemy? Yes.

Meet Linda L. Robertson
The FED has just hired her to spearhead the lobbying effort to stop the Audit of the FED.
This is the same lady who lobbied for Enron in 2001.
A little background:
----------------------------------------------
Quote:

Sen. Phil Gramm

Texas senator received $101,350 in Enron contributions since 1989;
pushed through the Commodity Futures Modernization Act,
which further deregulated energy commodity trading,
allowing Enron to operate an unregulated power auction
that quickly gained control over a significant share of California’s electricity and natural gas market.
----------------------------------------------
The Commodity Futures Modernization Act (CFMA) of 2000.
This was the act that gave us the "Enron Loophole," which took specific types
of energy trading outside the regulatory authorities' reach.
Beyond setting the stage for Enron’s spectacular failure,
this piece of legislation had immense repercussions
towards allowing the Credit Default Swap (CDS) market.

One little sheet of paper…one legally-bribed Phil Gramm…and a handful of Enron lobbyists
(the lobbyists actually wrote the bill’s language)
paved the way ultimately for a deregulated meltdown and consequent theft
of the US Treasury to pay off the CDS policy-holders.

Mark - Treasury just minutes ago sent this compromise language to the CEA bill to Gramm’s staff.
It is my understanding from Treasury that the swap exemption is expanded slightly
to say that if you are trading on a facility (MTF) and you are trading on principle-to-principle basis
you are no longer subject anti-fraud and anti-manipulation as contained in Sec. 107 of the House passed legislation.
This would be good for us. Ken is in London, so can you take a quick look at the attached language and tell me if you concur.

Also, we need to take a look at the new Sec. 4 to see if it causes any problems.

They may cut a deal as early as this afternoon!

Thanks - Chris

This little lady is one of the clever ones that greased it.
She knew its language and intent intimately. She helped write it.

She (and her bosses at John Hopkins University)... are going to get phone calls.
It's IMPORTANT to rip the sheets off of these snakes right at the beginning
and let them KNOW we DESPISE what they are doing
their "behind the scenes" work against transparency
and the PEOPLE of the United States.....

WE ARE WATCHING and know EXACTLY who they are.
Call her.... and leave a message of disgust.
I did... just spoke to her staff person... hah hah...
"What institution are you with?... Who are you again?" I loved it!!
