Obama: The ‘Ol’ Boys Network’ Just Another McCain Staff Meeting

Obama missed the biggest one tapped for Mccain’s transition team should he win. Uber lobbyist, William Timmons This lobbyist in so tight with McCain has registered to work on bills that deal with the regulations of troubled mortgage lenders Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae and bills that regulate domestic oil-drilling. How is McCain going to serve two masters?

Come on guys…this is where we get on here and spout out a whole a bunch of meaningless dribble about how Obama or McCain will save us! How one of the parties is at at fault and how the other party has all the answers!
lololololol
Good Luck.

Maybe when they investigate they will figure out that banks being forced to give 1 trillion dollars in marginal loans to minority and low income people is partly to blame for this crisis. Maybe while they are looking at that they can examine Obama’s connection to ACORN which was allowed to stop banks from selling loans, etc if they they didn’t have enough minority loans, affirmative action in the housing industry. Obama can say whatever he wants about how he is going to fix the economy, maybe we need to think about his involvement in breaking it.

McCain tried to stop this in 2005. The Dems prevented it.
Obama got the most political donations from the Mort. group to stop regulations from happening.

oops, did Obama forget to mention that the head of economic team was in charge of freddie mac, and gave himself a 100 million dollar salary?
oops,

Obama may not fix any problems with economy but neither will McCain. His plans will simply make the problem worse. Having Republicans manage problems with the economy equates to having oil company executives manage energy policy.

McCain lied when he said the regulatory commissions had not been changed since the 1930′s. McCain and Phil Gramm and other Republicans voted in 1999 to de-regulate the financial services business.

The next thing he should do is re-introduce the American people to Phil Graham in a new attack ad.
Announcer:Meet Phil Graham
(picture of him picking his nose or something)
Announcer: Yeah that Phil Graham, the one that called you a whiner and said that this is just a mental recession.
(video of former Lehman Brothers employees walking out w/ boxes in their hands)
Announcer:When Phil was in Congress he was the one that spearheaded the fight to De-Regulate the banking and securites industries so that he and his banking buddies could cash in at the American people’s expense. It was phil Graham and his cohorts that caused this economic mess we find oursleves in.
(video of gas prices and food prices rising and people on the unemployment line)
Announcer: So when John McCain wanted someone to write his Economic platform, who did he get to do it…..thats right Phil (your a bunch of whiners) Graham.
(Picture of McCain and Phil Graham hugging or something)
Announcer. We can’t afford four more years of the same.
Obama: I’m Barack Obama and I approve this message.
Or something like that.
Obama/Biden’08—our last best hope.

One who wants to look at an old boys network peer toward to Chicago and Chicago politics. High taxes, lousy schools and a murder rate in comparison to Iraq. Wanna blame someone for banks failing, look to pandering politicians who made “No job, no credit, No money down, no problem” a theme for folks who had no business getting a loan for”affordable housing”. Crooks who drove fannie mae and mac into the ground, lined their pockets and wind up on the campaign staff of politicians.
Good old boys? Obama surely must be blind or he would have noticed more than a few hanging around him.

Sounds like an Obama staff adviser meeting
Biden, Kennedy, Dodd, Reid, Johnson, …good old boys huh

Whew, Obama seems just a mite desperate. Instead of focusing on the issues, he is focusing on two things: John McCain and Sarah Palin. He’s gone from being the “change” guy to being the “attack” guy who seems much more like the good ‘ol boys than McCain does at this point.
Funnily enough, he points to McCain’s experience as a strike against him, yet he chose a running mate who has been in Washington longer than John McCain. Seems a bit like a mixed message to me.
This seems very similar to the primaries when Hillary Clinton started making gains on him – out came the attacks and suddenly the Clintons (who have championed all races so fervently) were racists, she was “more of the same,” she had bad judgment, etc.
Instead of trying to point out how bad John McCain is, Obama – why don’t you FINALLY answer the difficult questions and tell us what you’ll do for us and for our country? (Oh, and psst – as we are on our way through recession and into a potential depression, your promise to give us a tax cut WILL NOT WORK. Maybe you can sell that to the “believers,” but it doesn’t work to those of us who are really trying to look at what is best for our country and not just interested in electing a “historic” candidate.

Is Chris Dodd still alive?

You are LYING if you posted about Obama receiving more from Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. HOW STUPID CAN YOU BE TO REPEAT SOMETHING SO WRONG! Herbert Allison, Jr., CEO of Fannie Mae, was McCain’s campaign advisor in 2000. He donated $2,300 to Obama, the max allowed by law. BUT ALLISON – FANNIE MAE CEO – DONATED MORE THAN $10,000 TO McCAIN’S STRAIGHT TALK PAC. Wise up, people – it’s just our economic survival we’re talking about here.

If McCain’s network in the Senate is an old boys’ network, then by virtue of selecting Biden Obama’s network is an older boys’ network. If McCain’s meeting with his network is a staff meeting, then Obama’s meeting with his is an orgy.

“Obama blasted the changing responses McCain had this week”, Boy, Obama is one to question changing responses. He was opposed to the surge, now he admits it was a success. He was for Jeremiah Wright, his “Uncle”, now he has repudiated him, then there’s Father Pfleger, Tony Rezko, and William Ayers. Talk about the pot calling the kettle black, no pun intended. I’ve checked, Obama changes positions more often than he changes underwear. That’s why I’ve decided to vote McCain.

Bottom is falling out of Mccain camp.
Finally democrats got a msg, enough of this bull crap repubs are putting out. Folks, you think Mccain was down 5 points before Palin pick…he is got news it won’t be long before Barack opens a double digit lead.

OBAMA MUST MUST MUST talk about KEATING 5 scandal in an ad, in public, and talk about how mccain is IN with the fat cats, against regulation, S&L crisis, and ALL THAT BULLSHIT and LIES he is pushing on americans now.
Sarah Palin is a dumb woman, who got lucky, put her friends in high places, became governer of alaska and isnt worth the valentino someone draped on her for the RNC convention.
OBAMA and BIDEN – c’mon guys, toughen up your acts, go for the left upper hook and knock out McCain…he aint the same guy he used to be a decade ago.

mccain may have tried to stop it back then when he was still trying to be a maverick, but as you see it failed
and he never brought it back up because he realized he had to please the old boy network if he wanted to be president
mccain isnt about stopping naything, unless you mean troopergate, he wants that stopped and he wants to stop talking about the economy

Do u guys ever thought about yourselves? This election is about us. How come John McCain fix the economy if he doesn’t believe it’s bad. He consistently says that economic is not bad. He is out of touch, that’s true. It’s not plotics, think from your mind who can better handle the economy.

And TRACI – Maybe you are just TOO LAZY to read the 288 PAGE BOOK where Obama lays out his economic plan. McCain supporters take their clues from the old man himself – don’t check facts, lie, distort, play the race, gender, POW cards, whatever lowdown sleazy thing it takes to try to steal the election from an INTELLIGENT, ORGANIZED, candidate who UNDERSTANDS what America needs to get back on track. How anyone can believe McCain’s drivel without reading his record and understanding that HE DOES NOT SUPPORT ECONOMIC MEASURES THAT WILL HELP THE MIDDLE CLASS and that his TRICKLE DOWN and opposition to regulation are EXACTLY WHAT IS BRINGING OUR ECONOMY TOPPING DOWN as we sit here.

This guy is just like so many women, hypocritical and double standard in just about everything he says. What about Oprahma’s ‘good ole boy’ club featuring he and his ilk? From alleged radical ministers that don’t know when to stop talking to endorsements from Louis Farrakahn, what is he talking about? Rather the pot calling the kettle greasy. God forbid I use the well worn and accepted proverb, someone would say it was racially tainted. It’s a madhouse…

Where did O’bama go to select his vice president…he went to the “Good Ole Boy” that has been there 36 years. He rambles so much he doesn’t think about what he is saying. He needs to stick to his prompter.

hey samhiguchi, did you know that minorities are people who are not white?so that means asian black or any other race. thing about it. alot of the people who have money, but didn’t make mccains group of middle class, lost their homes, too.

Right man for the job!
McCain, the 72-year-old cancer surviver, a slow-learner (one of the worst of his class in military academy), will bail us out from the financial crisis. Wait only when he learns how to read emails.

therockofages
not working this tiiiiimmmmmmeeeeee
OBAMA BIDEN.

sarah palin won’t be on meet the press unless she checks, re-checks, and double checks the script of lies prepared for her by her and her staff

obama made an excellent vp decision he picked someone that in case of something happening to him his vp could step in at a moments notice, has the temprament experience and knowledge for the job. People can be reassured with obamas vp pick
however, possibly the oldest president ever to be elected for first term who has had several bouts with cancer picked someone for a political stunt.
he picked someone with zero experience, someone that makes americans afraid of how she woudl govern, and waht her views of the world are, she does not have the best record so far with all her lies and half truths and scandals…
he time in alaska even though were told was all about reform, seems to be more and more like her reform idea is to help her highschool friends get jobs that they arent qualified for, and she holds vendettas and abuses power
john mccains vp choice was reckless and when he made this decisions he NEVER PUT COUNTRY FIRST
he put CAMPAIGN FIRST

If Senator Obama is against the “good ‘ol boy network,” WHY did he select a real “good ‘ol boy” as his running mate? Senator Biden is a SIX-term senator. I don’t care if he rode a bicycle to work each day – he is still DEEPLY intrenched in that network, as well as being in the back pocket of the “good ‘ol financial boys!!”

mccain was the son of an admiral-got him into the military.
got out of 1st marriage-paid for by cindy.
can he buy his way to the presidency? not this time.

marsha, really, minorities are all non white races…gee whiz, I didn’t know that. A large majority of those loans where to people who couldn’t afford them, did some people lose their jobs, sure, but were the majority of them not able to pay their mortgages to begin with, absolutely.

Yes, let’s compare “good ‘ol boys” contacts and see who has the most and the most powerful. McCain wins hands down.

if mccain is about putting country first why did he pick palin as his vp?

hey samhiguchi, even though race shouldn’t have anything to do with it, some of the people who lost their homes were white. no wonder you like mccain. you see through rose colored lenses.

Sarge, they only know how to play dirty. After all, they are the party of Tricky D*ck and Karl Rove!

RTS
im glad you bring up this celebrity thing since mccain mocked obama yesterday…
its funny here we are in the middle of an economic crisis and mccains talking about celebrities…
you know its ok to criticize someone for doing soemthing, but you probably shouldnt be going to celebrity fundraisers yourself
McCain attended a fundraiser at the Beverly Hills Hilton Monday night, which included a number of Hollywood Republicans, capping off a $4.7 million, two-event day in the Golden State.
The presumptive GOP nominee made little in the way of news in his remarks though he joked about his afternoon taping at the Tonight Show.
“I just came from taping the Jay Leno show so those of you that are up late tonight and don’t wish to watch any re-runs of the Democratic convention,” McCain said to laughter from the nearly 1,200 donors in the hotel ballroom. “So naturally we had to have a few age jokes and I told him that my Social Security number is 8. I am that old.”
And while Barack Obama has the majority of Hollywood backing his candidacy, McCain had his own small cadre of celebs in attendance tonight. Among those that were spotted:
Stephen Baldwin
Pat Boone
Wilford Brimley
Dean Cain
Jon Cryer
Robert Duvall
Angie Harmon
Patricia Heaton
Lorenzo Lamas
Craig T. Nelson
Gail O’Grady
Jason Sehorn
Gary Sinise
Jon Voight

the only thing mccain has the most of is cindy’s money and wrinkles. try botox and your face will be ‘smooth as eggs’.

mental recession
economy fundamentally sound
how many houses? – check with my staff
i mean
how many stupid do you have to say before you are considered – STUPID
McCain should not be this close. If Obama would have said these things, mccain would have a 20 point lead…. in ILLINOIS!!!!
hmmmmmm can anyone tell me why mccain is soooo close. hmmmmmm

if the path was straight in the first place, there would be no need for affirmative action. so get your nose out of mccains tail end cause he aint gonna win.

Women’s Rights Groups Support Obama
Today my womanhood demands
That I conform to their commands
That I uphold the public heist
To elevate Hawaii’s Christ.
My duty as a democrat
Requires that I should vote like that
To disobey would cause a schism
In the domain of feminism!
But there’s one thing I’d like to know
Before off to the polls I go:
Where were these admirable dames
When Hillary was called bad names?
When women’s rights were under test,
When she was smeared, did they protest?
When media sexism became obscene,
How come they didn’t intervene?
While Sarah is torn up to shreds
They lie calmly in their Obama beds
From which they seek to rule my mind -
Please tell me, are they deaf and blind?
http://formidablyuselesspoet.blogspot.com/

Why is Michelle Obama forced to campaign for white women votes while Hillary merely snipes occasionally from afar?
http://www.political-buzz.com/

Poet: Politics is a rough-and-tumble trade. Not for the faint of heart. Hillary (and I am an admirer) was not subjected to any more harsh treatment then any of the male candidates in either party primaries. To suggest that she should have been treated somehow daintily because she is female is an insult to all women.

Hillary Clinton following the DNC:
“No way, not ever, no McCain”

vote obama/biden and no to the radical right

obama is a liar. enough said….. wow, that is easy enough.

good thing mccain and palin arent on the radical right then… whew, close one there..

And seriously now, John McCain is PART of the “good old boys” network, otherwise he could not have survived over two decades in Washington.
I like the guy, really. No I don’t. I USED to like him, but he’s not the same man. We all harden with age, get set in our ways, and most pointedly, we develop new versions of past memories.
I don’t doubt that McCain sincerely believes that he is ready to serve as president, but I worry that he is merely reliving the days when he actually had something to offer.
Those days are gone, and no pretty young woman is ever going to bring them back.

susan…
so let me get this straight. you say mccain is a liar. then you say he has peoplecome into blogs and lie for him?! first off, thats just stupid.. lol secondly, if that were true, then you’re saying obama does that too then?! what do you say about all the fools in here who tell lie after lie about barry?!

Obama stuffs his pockets with money from the mortgage lenders involved in the biggest financial scandal this nation has ever gone through and has the gall to accuse McCain? Right out of Noam Chomsky and Lenin.

mccain won’t win

ABC loves this so much .. they have two articles on their front page with it … they are so in the tank with Obama … why do they really believe anyone sees the Media as credible anymore?

We don’t need any more people lying for McCain geez ..Austan Goolsbee is obama’s senior economic advisor. If you want to see his credentials, go to this link http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Austan_Goolsbee

Cassandra, Fox News is so in the tank with McCain. Along with Limbaugh, Hannity, O’Reilly, Coulter, Novak, Carlson, etc, etc.

william..
you are too funny man.. lol ok, if you’re just trying to, in a very weird and roundabout way, attack her on this just because barry has a PROVEN terrible history of his choice of church, you’re wasting your time. why do you believe her church preaches this?! you are just flat out making this up, because it sounds good and you have nothing else to attack her on. so, obviously, she is a neocon, evangelical, right wing, fascist. we get it. if you’re a liberal, and you have no ammunition, you just pull stuff out of the air and make up your own. very weak attempt i must say on this one.

i love fox news, and will vote for mccain/palin just because of what they tell me.

He must be referring to Biden, the most corrupt and inept politician in Washington. Last time I checked, McCain was running with a female VP. Obama should stop repeating inane comments he hears from the radical left. Obama is showing his mean side because he knows that he will lose. First he calls Palin a pig. Now he calls McCain “old”. Then he releases the most mean spirited commercial yesterday. Whatever happened to the classy Obama the media portrayed.

well tim, i’m sure you heard of porn at the pumps… well just keep on watching foxnews and john mccain.

Actually I am pretty much a moderate, Tim, middle-of-the-road guy. MSNBC did an analysis of her church just the other night. Interviewed the pastor and some others. Then, of course, there is always the Rev. Haage, the so-called man of God who endorsed McCain. The good reverend believes that God sent Katrina to punish N.O. for their sins; God sent Hitler to force the Jews to Israel; and called the Catholic Church the “Great Wh*re.” To my knowledge, McCain has yet to repudiate the endorsement.

mccain is old-truth
palin a pig-truth, even though mccain mention the same phrase, just at a different time.so……….who’s lying?

Bhrandon
You are absolutely right…it’s hard to believe either of the 2 candidates think they are in touch with the common man…not that it doesn’t take money to run a campaign or that someone with wealth could not be in touch with the common man. With that amount of money being donated I fear the “separation of powers” are not so separate anymore.

Obama’s Freudian slip about his Muslim faith is all one needs to know.

Samhiguchi – I used to be like you – blame everything on affirmative action and black people until one day I accepted Jesus Christ into my heart and all the hatred I had for blacks and liberals is now gone – you should try that. It will set you free from your hatred and please don’t deny it. I will pray for you and your kind.

Obama’s Freudian slip about his Muslim faith is all one needs to know.
Posted by: dl | Sep 17, 2008 5:41:14 PM
Why is that.

Wm. J. LePetomaine
You got it backwards. George corrected the shallow one reminding his he was a Christian.

wow, you people ar funny.. lol

Suggesting or implying that all Muslims must be terrorists is like the thinking that got Japanese American citizens imprisoned in WWII.

Republicans are thieves who only take care of their own. It’s never been any different and it never will.

what is the mccain camp hiding in troopergate?
palins email getting hacked just goes to show you why you dont use non government accounts to do government work
palin is such a pathetic candidate, cant even get email right…. my god
why did mccain pick this women?
it wasnt about country first i can tell you that
more like campaign first

Bhrandon…both our out for a power grab…lobbyists rule

Sorry..both are out for a power grab…lobbyists rule

Wrong, Bert. But go ahead and believe he is a Muslim if you want to. In 1960 when Kennedy ran, people thought the Pope would be running the country. And again I raise the question: so what if he is a Muslim? What does that mean?

I can’t wait until 4 Nov 2008, if Obama wins then I am going too quite my job, smoke and deal weed. Open up a Trinity Church of Love that spews hate for “whity” and then I’m gonna sit around get a bunch of tattoes peircings and bitch that I”m a victim, America sucks and demand health care with rights and checks for illegal immigrants now!!!!!!
Yahhhhhh

Ah, Tim. The hatred finally comes out!

Since McCain had the testicular fortitude to choose a woman for running mate, I think the Obama campaign is the “good ol’ boy” gang. Obama did not have the courage to take on another strong woman. Michelle turned him off on strong women forever, LOL.

geevill – and I’d like to see a little of the re-unleashing of the Keating Five scandal. McCain’s an old man who is confused and stupid about things that are important to this country. Yeah, yeah, he’s a pow and all that. And he’s got ptsd and a lousy temper, is a warmonger and a happy trigger finger. And he’s run a super disgusting campaign. I’d wish you good luck with your choice geevill but Obama’s gonna win this one.

wow, a keatin five comeback huh?! a bit desparate for any scandal now are we?! i mean, wasnt that setteled like 20 years ago?! im just sayin’…. lol

Chuck – don’t you know? There is no god. But if there was one he/she/it sure ain’t happy with the human race right now because the s… seems to be hitting the fan in a big way. We are in a national and global mess and we can thank the republicans for the absolutely wonderful job they did getting us here. Not.

Palin’s speech on Monday? In the same speech she demanded new regulation and oversight of the financial industry and then went on to say that, once elected, she would fight to remove governmental intrusion into the free market. IN THE SAME SPEECH!! Does she even know what she is saying when she flip-flops IN THE SAME SPEECH? At least McCain waited 12 hours before he flip-flopped. and she has the cred to be president !!!!!! These Deregulations are the same ones that John McCain and the Keating 5 got in so much trouble for and the GOP pushed thru in the 90′s and up to 2004 in the Mort,stocks, energy, and banking fields they push for NO oversight and now in the same speech she says she wants and doesn’t want Gov. regulations ?!?

ahhhh wow. maybe there is a difference between government REGULATION and INTRUSION?! just a thought…

Fine Bert. No need for name calling

ok tim, you can go back to your cave now. and JKIR – McCain was WEAK for picking Palin. He wanted Lieberman but was afraid to alienate his “base” even more than they were already. So he picked a party line person. The only other possibility was Romney but McCain doesn’t like him. Everyone else was pro-choice. McCain caved. And as for Obama – the easy thing for him to do would have been to pick Hillary because he knew she’d bring along the women’s votes (as Palin seems to be doing for McCain) but you can be sure HE would have been perceived as weak if he had done so. So for me, Obama’s the strong, independent candidate. Funny how that works out, isn’t it?

richardcranium1
lol…very good…not that I agree, but very good.

anyone with the screen name “nomorerepublicans” is obviously one of the mindless who, for some reason, believe the countries economic problems are due to one party or the other. the most dangerous voter is one who believes their party does no wrong.

McCain ‘ole boy’s network’ a staff meeting!
McCain has intimate personal experience with greed and mismanagement!
Remember the Savings and Loan scandal? Greed and mismanagement and McCain one of the original Keating Five!
He talks about fixing corruption! What a freaking hypocrit! Both he and Palin – corrupt liars!
A huge cause for where we are today!
No thanks McCain; we’re not taking your Bridge to Nowhere! Take Palin and your 83 Wall Street Lobbyists working on your campaign and jump off the bridge!
Shame on McCain

This from the guy who has crawled through the slime of Chicago politics.

Gotta love a lib…gives us something to laugh about around the office….Xhater..LOL…GOOD NEWS..YOU WON THE “ADOPT A LIB” TODAY…YOUR COMMENT WILL BE PROUDLY DISPLAYED ON OUR WALL OF SHAME..RODNEY YOU GOT MY VOTE BUT CAME IN SECOND..HEY THERE’S ALWAYS TOMORROW!!!

In a few weeks we will make a choice that will decide our future.
This time the stakes are much higher then most people could imagine
I would like to point out some things You may already know with a new perspective.
I follow a economist named bob proctor who has called the top and bottom of every market crash since the 70s correctly.
He perfectly predicted the current real estate market meltdown ,and the picture he paints about what will happen in the next couple years
Is terrifying. He thinks it could get worse then the great depression.
Banks in the US are going under one after the other. Country wide the largest morgage bank in the world
Bear Stearns and Lehman brothers , and Merrill Lynch which are 3 out of the top 5 wall street firms.
And now Fanny and Freddy which hold 50 percent of the home loans in the United States.
The goverment took them over because they are essentially bankrupt.
If they didn’t the entire financially system would virtually shut down, the stock market would crash
And we would suffer beyond what any of us have seen before
The future of these companies will fall into the hands of our next president
And all of our economic future depends on them reorganizing these companies right.
Lehman, Merill Lynch, and Bear Sterns have survived for over 150 years and survived even the great depression
They are important because the are the biggest engines of growth in america and
they are connected to almost everything.
The last time the real estate market numbers looked this bad was during
The great depression and real estate often leads the way into major economic recessions.
One out of 10 Americans is somewhere in the foreclosure process.
During the last 8 years the average person saw there salary drop instead
Of increase. These are all facts no one will argue with.
The truth is we are only in the start of the worst economy we have seen in our generation
and a very real possibility of another depression.
Bush just like Mcain doesn’t understand the economy.
That not just my opinion its his own words. Not only does he not understand how to fix it
He does not understand exactly what is broken. Its no surprise that he doesnt. The people that make up these
securities use complex math models very few people understand.
They are basically bundles of thousand of loans some good and some bad that are then given rules based on quantitiative
math. It will take the best and brightest minds in the world to get us out of this, and the same things bush and mcain have done for the last 8 years
Have not worked so far and wont work in the future.
If you do what you have always done then you will do get what you have always __________
90 percent of the time they have voted the same.
Please don’t just take my word for it Start to read up on some of this yourself. MSN money, elliot wave and, bloomberg
Have tons of articles That prove we are in the heading into one of the worst economies any one has ever seen.
So why are the polls even close then ?
The chairman of mcains campaign recently said that people don’t vote on issues
they vote on a personality composite which means. He is trying to sell personality instead
of results.
He believes people will vote against there own self interests.
Lets teach him we are smarter then that and elect the ticket that can
bring us back from the brink of a economic abyss.
If you think i am kidding do your own home work you will find
We are at the start of this mess not the end.
Mcain admits in the year 2008 he cannot use a computer even to send email
Its almost impossible then he will understand the complex securities such as cdos that are destroying wall street
and the home values on your street.
We are not bulletproof america it time to wake up and hold these people accountable.
How many people that you go out and have drinks with would you really want running the country?
Lets stand up and fight for our country now while it will still make a difference
Lets elect Obama Biden 08

Wow! The Community Organizer is pretty
sharp with the quips!
Maybe he should be running for
comedian of the year or Class Clown!
Instead of offering solutions to our
current economic problems Obama prefers
to hang out with his elist hollywood
friends!
Saying change over and over is Not Enough!
McCain/Palin 08!

So what do you call Jimmy Carter’s adviser (Brezinski) and the former Clintonites (Albright, Holbrooke) pushing Obama. How many failed, old farts do these two canidates need? Would it kill them to get some new blood in their decision making process? It’s not “change” when the same ol’ tired, seasoned beuracratic old farts call the shots behind the scenes. Obama and McCain are puppets, pure and simple, with the policies being implemented from people you never get to see. The policy has already been set. No matter what happens in the election, you have no “choice.” And you never did. But feel free to think that you do. You make it much easier that way, when you don’t even bother to think why both parties mirror the same foreign and domestic policy. With the only difference being how much of YOUR money they get to take from you, and what corporate entity gets to profit off of your labor, while YOUR children are drafted and maimed and killed fighting THEIR illegal wars. Yeay! I just can’t wait til election day! How about you…

To the person above who tried to compare Obama and Palin with leaning to Obama. Palin was poor as a child and still have to toil the family budget. She has not gone to the top colleg that Obama has but, that does not show your charater. Obama love a beautiful black woman in Chicago and praised her because she was letting him take over her seat when she moves up. However, her bid to move up did not work out and she wanted to remain in her seat Obama found some way to get rid of her. When it was to his advantage she was the best canidate but, when he was not getting what he wanted he found out that she had fake signatures for voter which she had before and he let it slide because he was getting what he wanted. He took her out to move up but, those you walk over will get you on your way down. Obama charater is no good he was listed as mixed race canidate until the black vote was needed for him to move up so he listed himself as an African AMerican canidate to use the blacks to get where he wants. But, he is a mixed race man and should support both sides of his race or does he hate himself. He uses his race to play to what ever groug or race he is talking too. Oh, he should have chosen a black VP if he really wanted to show he African American but, he chose a white to make sure he has both races covered.SAD

I hear the “d” in old boys’ network three times. Barack has gone country on ABC only??

“The ol’ boy network? In the McCain campaign, that’s called a staff meeting” made me laugh out loud in my car when I heard it on NPR this afternoon.
You have to admit it’s a great line.

His timing is off. Going negative and blaming does not feel like leadership. Problem-solving, solutions is what’s important. Blaming and taking names makes people angry and more afraid. There is plenty of time to investigate what happened. Maybe I am wrong, but I never saw Biden, Dodd, Pelosi and Reid holding press conferences in 2006 and 2007 when every one knew the bubble in the housing market was totally out of control. The average person on mainstreet knew the prices were crazy. Focus on solutions first.

I am writing this in response to the comments about minorities and the mortgage crisis being the result of the government forcing banks to give loans to minorities. I think that is BUNK… That has nothing to do with it. Stating that is very prejudicial… What only people of color defaulted on loans? Thats ridiculous! There are more people who defaulted on their loans who were NOT people of color. The shear number of white people in America would bear that out. As for me I have excellent credit as does my wife and we have a mortgage and we havent defaulted on it. BUT they took me through every kind of form or proof to prove that we were credit worthy… It took almost two months to get the loan. That was 16 years ago before Congress started leaning on banks to make their process equal as it should be. This crisis is the result of greedy people trying to capitalize on the ridiculous housing market as it was. Did anyone ever catch those comical shows on HGTV. There was one WHITE couple who were both teachers were buying a house that was priced at close to 1 million dollars in San Francisco… AND THEY GOT THE LOAN… ARe you kidding me…

“The American economy is the envy of the world, and we need to keep it that way” “I’m not an economist” “The fundamentals of our economy are strong” George W Bush – Aug 9, 2007
“The issue of economics is not something I’ve understood as well as I should” John McCain – Dec 17. 2007
“Our economy, I think, still the fundamentals of our economy are strong” – John McCain – Sep 15. 2008
Does anyone see a pattern here? Are 50% of the American people really stupid enough to still support either of these two clueless idiots?
