Obama and the Socialists

Someone should tell McCain-Palin that these swift boat attacks won't work this time. They won't work because both of them don't want the Democrats to dig too far into each of their past activities. John McCain and the Keading Five scandal; and, John McCain and his multiple affairs with other women are just some of the things he does not want to talk about. Sarah Palin is being investigated for Abuse of Power in her position as Governor of Alaska. Todd Palin, her husband, has worked to secede Alaska from America. So why don't McCain-Palin stop these tactics? They won't stop because they simply don't have any real plans for America. They won't stop because these angry and false tactics have worked for them before. Not this time!

Why is John McCain so angry? During the second debate John McCain hardly ever referred to Barack Obama by his name. He kept referring to him as "he" or "him". Rarely did he say Senator Obama. He also referred to Obama as "That One". Where I come from not looking a person in the eye and calling him out of his name is a true sign of disrespect. What did he mean by "That One"? You may interpret it any way you wish. However to me "That One" refers to a non-human or someone who should not be in the same room as Mr. McCain. Mr. McCain should at least show his opponent some respect as Barack Obama has shown him throughout this campaign.

Ok, I get it, Mr. Obama is a Liberal! Hmmm, how come I didn't think of that?!

Thank you Dave for the insight!

to Robin :

Wow! Even though he's a socialist that doesn't affect your party affiliation?

So glad I don't feel tied to anyone! Otherwise I would just excuse everything wrong with my candidate as an attack from the other party - Blissfully Naive!

Robin E. Oden:I see you read the democraticparty email telling you to "get in the face" of anyone who would dare to support someone other the Obama. If you were open-minded, you would see that there are a lot of questions about Senator Obama that have not been answered. This is just one of many items, serious items, that Senator Obama fails to address. When he does give an answer, you wait a few days, and, as more information becomes available, he will change his answer. Look at all the answers he gave us regarding Ayers.

With McCains Blessing Palin Attacks TRUTH

In 1994 Todd Palin became a member of the ALASKAN INDEPENDENCE PARTY. A group that would like to breakaway, secede from the United States Of America. Joe Vogler the founder of the organization stated that, "THE FIRES OF HELL ARE FROZEN GLACIERS COMPARED TO MY HATRED FOR THE AMERICAN GOVERNMENT." Sarah Palin attended one of their conventions and addressed one of their conventions VIA Video.

Seceding, wasn’t that what started the CIVIL WAR?

Ms. Palins pastors have as well said and done some questionable things. EXPELLING WITCHES??

Palin, McCain and Obama have all made mistakes giveing them a resident skeleton in the closet.

BUT PLEASE CAN WE FOCUS ON THE ISSUES

PEOPLE ARE LOSING THEIR HOMES AND THEIR WAY OF LIFE!!

Arrest made in Palin email hacking case
University of Tennessee student David Kernell -- the son of state Rep. Mike Kernell, D-Memphis -- pleaded not guilty in federal court today to the charge of obtaining unauthorized access to vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin's personal e-mail. Kernell was indicted yesterday and surrendered today to authorities. He was allowed to remain free so long as he does not use his computer for non-school activities and has no contact with Palin or her family. If convicted, Kernell faces a maximum of five years in prison, a $250,000 fine and a three-year term of probation.
The Knoxville News Sentinel has the story

It is frightening to think that this country could actually be duped into electing the "MANCHURIAN CANDIDATE OBAMA" just because we are so desperate for change! Last time this country was hungering for change...we elected Jimmy Carter!!!!!!!!!...with all the resultant domestic and international disasters. Don't be fooled by the smoke and mirrors campaign of Obama and the Democrats! Don't you realize the housing mess is a result of the Democrats' policies and actions over the years?!...do you want more of the same? Look at the facts.Look up the YouTube video "Burning Down the House" and the Hannity special that just aired on Obama. Get the facts straight before you vote. The consequences of an Obama presidency will be felt for decades to come, especially with a Democratic Congress that is so inept and corrupt!

OBAMAMNIACS ARE SCREAMING AND WAILING ALL OVER THE BLOGS ABOUT SWIFTBOAT. WHAT DO YOU THINK OBAMA AND HIS COHORTS WERE DOING ATTACKING PALIN FOR 5 WEEKS NONSTOP..NYT, CNN, WASH POST, MSNBC ETC,EVEN ABC, WERE PLANTED IN ALAKA DIGGING UP DIRT ON PALIN.
SARAH PALIN IS TAKING NO PRISONERS..
OBAMA IS BEING FED HIS OWN MEDCINE
THE NEXT THING ; RACE CARD OF COURSE.
HIS NAME IS NO GOOD, LET HIM TO GO COUNTY COURTHOUSE AND CHANGE IT BACK TO BARRY SOETORO.
BARRY SHUT UP!!

During the debate, why didn’t the people question Obama about Ayers and ACORN? Were they hand-picked by the Obama camp and biased media?

Obama has based his entire campaign on lies. He has too many ties to terrorists and anti-Americans.

Perhaps more troubling to lawmakers is the widespread discrepancy in early voting — and the method by which registrants cast their ballots.

Oregon, which requires all voters to cast their ballots by mail only, has effectively “created two election days!”

Many voters in Oregon return their ballots by mail immediately after receiving them — while others wait until the deadline several weeks later, creating “a huge spike at the very end.”

Organizations like The Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now (ACORN) have also faced charges of fraud in their efforts to drive voter turnout during the election.

Twenty-seven thousand registrations handled by the ACORN group from January to July 2008 “went into limbo because they were incomplete, inaccurate, or fraudulent.” The group recently came under investigation for allegedly registering deceased individuals in certain states.

This just one of the many frauds in Obama’s campaign —what a shame! And so many of you still don’t get it! Obama has very shady hidden agendas — check out this article:

I’M VOTING FOR THE HONORABLE JOHN McCAIN IN NOVEMBER.

DAVE,
THE PROBLEM IS,MSM JUST IGNORE ANYTHING NEGATIVE ABOUT OBAMA. THAT IS WHY PALIN AND MCCAIN HAD TO DO IT THEMSELVES.. I PERSONALLY DO NOT SEE ANY DIFFERENCE BETWEEN OBAMA AND MR WRIGHT.. A VERY ANGRY BLACK MAN WHO LOST HIS ANGER ONCE HE SAW HE COULD BEAT HILLARY CLINTON.
HE IS NOT A SOCIALIST, HE IS LEANING ON MARXISM
HEALTHCARE IS A 'RIGHT?"
IT IS A RESPONSIBILITY THAT THE GOOVERNMMENT MUST MAKE EASIER FOR ALL CITIZENS.

TRUTH

"If the facts are on your side, you argue the facts

If the truth is on your side, you argue the truth

If you have neither, you attack your opponents character and credibility"

THE OLDEST GAME IN TOWN

By The By, Damn Right I am a Liberal and not some tight suit, constipated, stuck in the past conservative.


Perhaps some outdated prejudice is coloring your opinions.
WINK WINK

OBAMA'S REAL NAME IS MAO-TSE-OBAMA

This is something the Downstream (main stream) Media will not be talking about

Barack Obama was indeed a certified and acknowledged member of the DSA's New Party. Democratic Socialists Of America

This is a documented fact and the DSA site has wiped it's membership of Barack Obama clean but it was archived, and is available for all to see.

http://newsbusters.org/blogs/p-j-gladnick/2008/10/08/will-msm-report-obama-membership-socialist-new-party

The party the Democratic Socialists believe that both the economy and society should be run democratically to meet public needs not to make profits for a few.
To achieve a more just society, many structures of our government and economy must be radically transformed through greater economic and social democracy so that ordinary Americans can participate in the many decisions that affect our lives.

The ghost of McCarthy is alive and well.

It looks to me like socialisim is what the u.s. wants. be careful what you wish for. i already stopped paying my mortgage and quit my job...i am screwed if mccain wins...but i am living on happy street if obama wins. i will no longer need to strive to be successful. just kick back and wait for the obama intitlements to roll in. hell, i will even get free health care. i will qualify for everything obama has to offer as i live under the poverty line. how long will it take for america to go bankrupt??? i will guess not long. as many others will follow suit. thanks in advance to the few tax payers who will be footing the bill. sorry, but this is what you are telling me you want by electing obama as persident. i will think of you all from time to time while i kick back and live in the house and eat the food that you buy for me. i gotta go put my hammock up now, it's going to get a lot of use.

I WONDER WHY THE MEDIA CNN, NBC, ABC DOES NOT PICK THIS ONE? MAYBE THE OWNERS OF THESE COMPANIES ARE ALSO IN THE POCKETS OF CORRUPT BUSINESSMEN.

Subject: History 101 - FYI

1977: PRES. JIMMY CARTER SIGNS THE COMMUNITY REINVESTMENT ACT INTO LAW. The law pressured financial institutions to extend home loans to those who would otherwise NOT QUALIFY. The Premise: Home ownership would improve poor and crime-ridden communities and neighborhoods in terms of crime, investment, jobs, etc.

Results: Statistics bear out that it did not help.

How did the government get so deeply involved in the housing market? ANSWER: BILL CLINTON WANTED IT THAT WAY.

1992: REPUBLICAN REPRESENTATIVE JIM LEACH (IO) WARNED OF THE DANGER that Fannie and Freddie were changing from being agencies of the public at large to money machines for the principals and the stockholding few.

1993: Clinton extensively rewrote Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac's rules turning the quasi-private mortgage-funding firms into semi-nationalized monopolies dispensing cash and loans to large Democratic voting blocks and handing favors, jobs and contributions to political allies. THIS POTENT MIX LED INEVITABLY TO CORRUPTION AND NOW THE COLLAPSE OF FREDDIE AND FANNIE.

1994: Despite warnings, Clinton unveiled his National Home-Ownership Strategy which BROADENED THE CRA IN WAYS CONGRESS NEVER INTENDED.

1995: Congress, about to change from a Democrat majority to Republican, CLINTON ORDERS ROBERT RUBIN'S TREASURY DEPT TO REWRITE THE RULES. Robert Rubin's Treasury reworked rules, forcing banks to satisfy quotas for sub-prime and minority loans to get a satisfactory CRA rating. The rating was key to expansion or mergers for banks. LOANS BEGAN TO BE MADE ON THE BASIS OF RACE AND LITTLE ELSE.

1997 - 1999: Clinton, bypassing Republicans, enlisted Andrew Cuomo, then Secretary of Housing and Urban Development, allowing Freddie and Fannie to get into the sub-prime market in a BIG way. LED BY REP. BARNEY FRANK AND SEN. CHRIS DODD, CONGRESS DOUBLED DOWN ON THE RISK BY EASING CAPITAL LIMITS AND ALLOWING THEM TO HOLD JUST 2.5% OF CAPITAL TO BACK THEIR INVESTMENTS VS. 10% FOR BANKS. Since they could borrow at lower rates than banks their enterprises boomed.

WITH INCENTIVES IN PLACE, BANKS POURED BILLIONS IN LOANS INTO POOR COMMUNITIES, often "no doc", "no income", requiring no money down and no verification of income. Worse still was the cronyism: Fannie and Freddie became home to out-of work-politicians, mostly Clinton Democrats. 384 politicians got big campaign donations from Fannie and Freddie. Over $200 million had been spent on lobbying and political activities. During the 1990's Fannie and Freddie enjoyed a subsidy of as much as $182 Billion, MOST OF IT GOING TO PRINCIPALS AND SHAREHOLDERS, not poor borrowers as claimed.

Did it work? MINORITIES MADE UP 49% OF THE 12.5 MILLION NEW HOMEOWNERS but many of those loans have gone bad and the minority homeownership rates are shrinking fast.

1999: New Treasury Secretary, Lawrence Summers, became alarmed at Fannie and Freddie's excesses. Congress held hearings the ensuing year but nothing was done because Fannie and Freddie had donated millions to key congressmen and radical groups, ensuring no meaningful changes would take place. "We manage our political risk with the same intensity that we manage our credit and interest rate risks," FANNIE CEO FRANKLIN RAINES, A FORMER CLINTON OFFICIAL AND CURRENT BARACK OBAMA ADVISOR, BRAGGED TO INVESTORS IN 1999.

2000: Secretary Summers sent Undersecretary Gary Gensler to Congress seeking an end to the "special status". DEMOCRATS RAISED A RUCKUS AS DID FANNIE AND FREDDIE, HEADED BY POLITICALLY CONNECTED CEO'S WHO KNEW HOW TO REWARD AND PUNISH. "We think that the statements evidence a contempt for the nation's housing and mortgage markets" Freddie spokesperson Sharon McHale said. It was the last chance during the Clinton era for reform.

2001: Republicans try repeatedly to bring fiscal sanity to Fannie and Freddie but DEMOCRATS BLOCKED ANY ATTEMPT AT REFORM; ESPECIALLY “REP. BARNEY FRANK” AND “SEN.CHRIS DODD” WHO NOW RUN KEY BANKING COMMITTEES AND WERE HUGE BENEFICIARIES OF CAMPAIGN CONTRIBUTIONS FROM THE MORTGAGE GIANTS.

2003: BUSH PROPOSES WHAT THE NY TIMES CALLED "THE MOST SIGNIFICANT REGULATORY OVERHAUL IN THE HOUSING FINANCE INDUSTRY SINCE THE SAVINGS AND LOAN CRISIS A DECADE AGO". Even after discovering a scheme by Fannie and Freddie to overstate earnings by $10.6 billion to boost their bonuses, the Democrats killed reform.

2005: Then Fed chairman Alan Greenspan warns Congress: "We are placing the total financial system at substantial risk". SEN. MCCAIN, WITH TWO OTHERS, SPONSORED A FANNIE/FREDDIE REFORM BILL AND SAID, "IF CONGRESS DOES NOT ACT, AMERICAN TAXPAYERS WILL CONTINUE TO BE EXPOSED TO THE ENORMOUS RISK THAT FANNIE MAE AND FREDDIE MAC POSE TO THE HOUSING MARKET, THE OVERALL FINANCIAL SYSTEM AND THE ECONOMY AS A WHOLE". Sen. Harry Reid accused the GOP ;of trying to "cripple the ability of Fannie and Freddie to carry out their mission of expanding homeownership" The bill went nowhere.

2007: BY NOW FANNIE AND FREDDIE OWN OR GUARANTEE OVER HALF OF THE $12 TRILLION US MORTGAGE MARKET. The mortgage giants, whose executive suites were top-heavy with former Democratic officials, had been working with Wall St. to repackage the bad loans and sell them to investors. As the housing market fell in '07, sub-prime mortgage portfolios suffered major losses. The crisis was on, though it was 15 years in the making.

2008: MCCAIN HAS REPEATEDLY CALLED FOR REFORMING THE BEHEMOTHS, Bush urged reform 17 times. Still the media have repeated Democrats' talking points about this being a "Republican" disaster. A few Republicans are complicit but Fannie and Freddie were created by Democrats, regulated by Democrats, largely run by Democrats and protected by Democrats. That's why taxpayers are now being asked for $700 billion!!

If you doubt any of this, just click the links below and listen to your lawmakers own words. They are condemning!

Postscript: “ACORN” is one of the principle beneficiaries of Fannie/ Freddie's slush funds. They are currently under indictment or investigation in many states. BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA SERVED AS THEIR LEGAL COUNSEL, DEFENDING THEIR ACTIVITIES FOR SEVERAL YEARS. BOMBER BILL AYERS FOUNDED THIS ORGANIZATION. OBAMA HAS A RELATIONSHIP WITH AYERS THAT GOES BACK 17 YEARS.

I'M VOTING FOR THE HONORABLE JOHN McCAIN IN NOVEMBER.

Republicans would LOVE to stop playing investigative reporter!!! If the news media would do their job and thoroughly investigate then hold politicians EQUALLY ACCOUNTABLE when questions arise - you wouldn't see us pleading towards the end of each campaign for the news media to DO SOMETHING about informing the American public on issues that might change peoples minds!!! The media jumped on Sarah Palin and investigated EVERYTHING down to her shoe size in just a few weeks - throwing out rumors and dirt galore! Yet - after nearly 2 years of campaigning for President - we barely know Barack Obama or any of the questionable things in his past. The media says 'community organizer' conveniently leaving out ACORN community organizer since they know of the numerous scandals associated with that organization. When is the media going to let America know Obama won his first election by having his opponents thrown off the ballot on technicalities? Including sen. Palmer - his mentor!!! How quickly he threw his pastor of 20 years under the bus when he stood in the way of his campaign. Same with Bill Ayres who helped him get started in the most corrupt city in America - Chicago. His wife Michelle said a little too much - and she, too, was sent home and effectively muzzled. It appears the only person Obama is loyal to is Obama himself. And he just may end up the President of our country. God help us all.

Cindy McCain said she was upset with Senator Obama because of his vote. She must stay upset with her husband because of his constant voting against veteran benefits and rights.

McCain:
● Did not support new GI bill legislation because he thought it was too generous and would result in soldiers choosing to go to school instead of reenlisting. This bill passed 75-22 and McCain was one of three Senators who didn't show up to vote. Only after the bill was attached to the war funding request of the Bush administration, did McCain vote for the Webb bill. All 22 votes against the bill were by Republicans.
● Voted against providing at least $19 billion for military health facilities, paid for by eliminating tax cuts for the wealthy.
● Voted against providing $2.8 billion to increase veterans' medical care.
● Voted against establishing a $1 billion trust fund to provide improvements to health facilities that treat veterans and military personnel paid for by allowing dividends and capital gains tax breaks, for those with incomes greater than $1 million, to lapse.
● Voted against increasing medical services to veterans by $1.5 billion in 2007, paid for by closing corporate tax loopholes.
● In April 2006, McCain was one of 13 Senators to vote against $430 million for medical services for VA outpatient care and treatment for veterans. Despite his vote against, it passed overwhelmingly, 84-13. All 13 voting against were Republicans.

She should have told about her prescription drug addiction.

1989- Cindy McCain became addicted to Percocet and Vicodin, opioid painkillers. The addiction progressed to where she was taking upwards of twenty pills a day, and she resorted to having an American Voluntary Medical Team (AVMT) physician write illegal prescriptions.

1993- An AVMT employee, who had discovered her illegal drug use, was terminated on budgetary grounds. Subsequently, he tipped off the Drug Enforcement Administration, and a federal investigation ensued resulting in Cindy McCain paying the costs of the government's investigation, and enrolling in a diversion program. and doing community service. In a move that critics described as a preemptive strike, Cindy McCain publicly revealed her past addiction: "Although my conduct did not result in compromising any missions of AVMT, my actions were wrong, and I regret them."

1994-The former AVMT employee filed a wrongful termination lawsuit against Cindy McCain, which he told her he would settle for $250,000. In response, her lawyer characterized this request as blackmail and requested that officials investigate the former AVMT employee for extortion. In the end, both the former AVMT employee lawsuit and the extortion investigation against him were dropped.
