McCain's Campaign Manager Was for It Before He Was Against It

Watching Chris Wallace interview made me sick

Thursday morning I turned on the news and heard that ACORN is under investigation for voter fraud in a number of states. Since I learned not to trust what the media tells us, I decided to have a look what the bloggers had to say. On a sight called A Look Into Barack Obama’s Past - Obamamania - Zimbio website I found the following comment that made me think.

Back to my point. By allowing the voter fraud to go on, makes this great country look like a third world dictatorship. We are supposed to send an example to the rest of the world how honest elections are held and not allow the media to distort the facts. Please people, wake up and tell the media no more. Boycott all the products advertised on publications like the Newsweek, Time magazine and other propaganda machines like the New York Times. Also do the same with CNN and other communist propaganda news sources. Even the Fox News network is starting to sway the viewer decision. After Thursday’s presidential debate, watching Chris Wallace interview a communist from Saint Louis made me sick. Even bad journalists should realize that when you ask a communist or a skin head to give you their views, you can pretty much expect what they are going to say.

I certainly had enough of all of the $%#@Comunism.org

A Look Into Barack Obama’s Past

A Look Into Barack Obama’s Past

Barack Obama joined Trinity United Church of Christ more than 20 years ago and considered the church pastor, Rev. Jeremiah Wright as his mentor. Rev. Wright married Obama and his wife Michelle, baptized their two daughters and is credited by Obama for the title of his book, "The Audacity of Hope." In his sermons, Rev. Wright repeated denunciations of the U.S and blurted out statements like “The government gives them the drugs, builds bigger prisons, passes a three-strike law and then wants us to sing “God Bless America.” No, no, no, God damn America, that's in the Bible for killing innocent people," he said in a 2003 sermon. "God damn America for treating our citizens as less than human. God damn America for as long as she acts like she is God and she is supreme."

Looking at Obama’s ties to Rev. Wright, and his connections to a terrorist bomber, William Ayers, both men who would like nothing more than to destroy this country causes many people to second guess Obama’s intentions for change. If you have not heard about William Ayers, you can read about him in the U.S. News, Michael Barone’s column-Obama Needs to Explain His Ties to William Ayers. “In my U.S. News column, I make a brief reference to the unrepentant Weather Underground terrorist bomber William Ayers and his connections to Barack Obama. They were closer than Obama implied when George Stephanopoulos asked him about Ayers in the April 16 debate—the last debate Obama allowed during the primary season. To get an idea of how close they were, check out Tom Maguire's Just One Minute blog and Steve Diamond's Global Labor and Politics. The Obama-Ayers relationship is also mentioned in David Freddoso's The Case Against Barack Obama: The Unlikely Rise and Unexamined Agenda of the Media's Favorite Candidate.”

Lets examine Obama’s connection with an accused political fixer Antoin “Tony” Rezko. The following is on explanation by Brian Ross and Rhonda Schwartz from ABC News. “In sharp contrast to his tough talk about ethics reform in government, Sen. Barack Obama, D-Ill., approached a well-known Illinois political fixer under active federal investigation, Antoin "Tony" Rezko, for "advice" as he sought to find a way to buy a house shortly after being elected to the United States Senate. Rezko had been widely reported to be under investigation by the U.S. attorney and the FBI at the time Obama contacted him and has since been indicted on corruption charges by a federal grand jury in a case that prosecutors say involves bribes, kickbacks and "efforts to illegally obtain millions of dollars."

Because Barack Obama was a dependable ally of subsidized developers in the Legislature, his friend and fund-raiser Rezko depended on him to get things done such as cosponsoring a bill in 2001 allowing developers to pocket half of the proceeds from selling state tax credits to others. Obama admitted that his decision to involve Rezko was “a bone-headed mistake.” What he failed to mention is that he has a closet full of bone-headed mistakes such as Peter Wallsten pointed out in the Los Angeles Times on

January 24, 2008.

“Barack Obama angered fellow Democrats in the Illinois Senate when he voted to strip millions of dollars from a child welfare office on Chicago's West Side. But Obama had a ready explanation: He goofed.

"I was not aware that I had voted no," he said that day in June 2002, asking that the record be changed to reflect that he “intended to vote yes.”

That was not the only misfire for the former civil rights attorney first elected to the state Senate in 1996. During his eight years in state office, Obama cast more than 4,000 votes. Of those, according to transcripts of the proceedings in Springfield, he hit the wrong button at least six times.”

Now comes the big question, what exactly does a community organizer do?

One thing Barack Obama did as a community organizer was pressure banks to make bad loans. In Barack Obama’s youthful community organizing days he joined a group called ACORN. Using the Community Reinvestment Act which was designed to encourage banks to make loans to high-risk borrowers, ACORN started abusing the law by forcing banks to make hundreds of millions of dollars in 'subprime' loans to minorities with bad or no credit. Using charges of racism and threats to use CRA to block business expansions have enabled ACORN to extract hundreds of millions of dollars in loans and contributions from America’s financial institutions.

Other things that ACORN did as community organizers were agitate for higher minimum wages, attempt to thwart school reform, try to unionize welfare recipients who are obliged to work in exchange for benefits and organize voter registration drives. In 2006 for example, their voter registration drive in Washington produced 1,800 new voters of which 1,794 names submitted were fake. The secretary of state called it the “worst case of election fraud in our state’s history.”

pretty tough !

Senator McCain could be having some serious credibilty problem if it is found out that Rick Davis has been making some good money from the failed mortgage firm illegally.

Rick Davis, McCain's Campaign Manager

I expect that this issue will be the next Obama talking point.

Unlike Obama Campaign Staff Members, Jim Johnson, Franklin Raines and Tim Howard, Mr Davis has never been an employee of Fannie Mae, never was accused of or admitted to violating a public duty for private gain, has never been accused of lying to Congress or falsifying Accounting Reports to obtain a Bonus from Fannie Mae. http://mcauleysworld.wordpress.com/2008/09/21/the-fannie-mae-five-five-key-players-who-broke-the-system/

It is Democrat Barney Frank, Chairman of the Finance Committee who boasts about blocking Fannie Mae reform on his Wikipedia Biography: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barney_Frank

It is Democratic Senator Dhris Dodd, Chairman of the Banking Committee who blocked reform as recently s June - saying he saw no problem with Fannie or Freddie. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christopher_Dodd

Thousands of low cost loans were made by Fannie - loans that were not Liar or NINJA Loans - loans that are not in default.Those loans helped the average working man buy a house.

If you can't tell the difference between working for the public and "betraying the public to line your own pockets" - you just can't discriminate between right and wrong

They are literally running against themselves

How schizophrenic! McCain, Rick Davis and company are not running against the George Bush establishment, they are running against themselves!! McCain is running against McCain - so who wins? When you think about it, the sane thing would be for him to lose - then we all win.

The McCain Obama Connection

The McCain Obama Connection

I am here listening to the news this morning and it looks like John McCain is laying the blame for the Morgage crises of Fannie Mae and Freddy Mac upon the shoulders of Barack Obama.

According to John McCain, Obama fiddles while the FM's Burned.

While this might be true to some extent, Maybe Obama did not do enough to put out the fire .... BUT .... The source of this conflagration fire began on McCains watch well over a decade ago and was smoldering for years before Obama came along.

How is it the blame for the fire seems to get placed upon the passerby whilst the do-nothing congress and senate that owned the fire-department was allowed to keep heaping kindling upon the pile ?????

Change of Heart?

It's OK to change position/views. The flip-flopping (or lying) accusations is justified when they refuse to admit the error of their ways and somehow rationalize that the policies of deregulation have led to decades of instability and recklessness as far back as the "Greed is Good" 80's under Reagan/Bush. This has culminated in the disaster we're now seeing which came as close to the Second Great Depression as we ever want to get.

Oh yeah, Liz -- you're cute.
