Staffers’ Blackberries Confiscated as the Tough Negotiations Begin at Congress

Time to cook some ACORNS.

Didn’t McCain go to Canada to invent the Blackberry.

Take out the Christmas Tree goodies too. No funding for ACORN and trail lawyers, two groups Obambi knows all too well.

*** Secret metings never end up being good for the public***

MM: No, that was Gore, who invented the internet.

Secret metings? This cant be good for “we the people”. Our system is broken!!!

On the other hand Obama, who I’ve been told is also a member of Congress, is campaigning in North Carolina.

Does that include the lobbyist for Wall Street that have been working on the bail out negotiations, that no one has brought up.
Ex Republican

The only reason Obama used the term “middle class” a couple times during the debate was to run an ad.
The only reason Obama wore Sgt. “uh”‘s bracelet during the debate was for show.
Obama admitted he abused earmarks during the debate and stopped them only when he started running for President.

Obama admitted he abused earmarks ???
He said he had asked for earmarks not that he abused them!
Which earmark of Obama’s do you find Offensive ?

Channahon, IL, for road upgrades, $12,000,000
Upgrades include rebuilding the Interstate 55 and U.S. Route 6 Interchange with an eight lane bridge deck and relocated frontage roads.
This one ????

OBAMA: “Well, Senator McCain is absolutely right that the earmarks process has been abused, which is why I suspended any requests for my home state”
Obama admits he abused the earmark system.

Barack ear marks are all for education programs, job training, Infustructure and Health care!
Im fine with my tax dollars going there!
Now brdges to nowhere is a different story!

Aledo, IL, to support its replacement of two aging water towers, $750,000
Two aging 150,000-gallon water towers require replacement. The towers’ water pressure is chronically low, and its supply is unreliable. Average daily use for the towers is 420,000 gallons.

Stand up to Dodd, Peolosi, Reed!!! No ACORN!!! NOBOAMA!!! No PORK!!! Make them Famous!!! It is our money!!!!

Obama Requested $2,499,400 For The Food Stamp Participation Project Of The Illinois Department Of Human Services. In 2006, Obama requested $2,499,400 for the Food Stamp Participation project of the Illinois Department of Human Services. The Food Stamp Participation Project is development of new technology projects, which are designed to increase the access to the food stamp program
Obama abused the earmark program to force taxpayer subsidy of deadbeats

I know Nancy, you can start by removing the 20% kick back to ACORN.

I think we need a public advocate to watch out for us, the taxpayers. The members of Congress are supposed to be OUR representatives but we are finding out that this is not the case. The MSM is not covering this process in a trustworthy manner.
Who can WE go to to find out what is going to be included in the package? They are expecting us to pick up the tab. I’d like to know what’s on the bill … BEFORE, not after, it is agreed upon.

“Half of all wallmart workers recive foodstamps!”

Nothing like secret metings to solve America’s problems. This bailout wil be full of earmarks, whoever does it should be made public!!!

Obama and McCain..both are Zionist sockpuppets.

The statement at governor.mo.gov looks real enough:
“Obama and the leader of his Missouri campaign Senator Claire McCaskill have attached the stench of police state tactics to the Obama-Biden campaign.
“What Senator Obama and his helpers are doing is scandalous beyond words, the party that claims to be the party of Thomas Jefferson is abusing the justice system and offices of public trust to silence political criticism with threats of prosecution and criminal punishment.”

ACORN, ACORN, ACORN, ACORN Why are they benefiting from the giveaway!!!! Why don’t Dems tell us the American public why they are selling us down the creek!! And why is none, yes, none of the press talking about this except for fox. This is a group who fraudully makes up voter registrations for Obama. Google them and find out!!!

McCain cant take that even Fox said Obama won the debate!

Nancy Pelosi and Chris Dodd cant pass anything the republicans just block it!

sounds like the republicans are trying to take everything they shoved down america’s throats from 2000 to the end of 2006…
then blocked from fixing from 2007 and 2008…
and continue.
if they are so concerned about Main Street…why were they not concerned for the last 6 out of 8 years.
you know as we got here.
scum.

You know…reading you’ll’s comments I now know who they make those insipid infomercials for. It’s as if none of you have ever opened a book with less pictures than words, or had a serious conversation with a person of different ethnic background, or social standing. My god people–get out of your delusional little worlds and THINK, CONVERSE, and READ–History most of all.

Who are we bailing out? A lot of that investment money came from outside of the country. Why should US taxpayers bail out foreign investors?
“Independent” had it right “This is Clinton, Pelosi, Reid, Dodd, Frank, and Obama’s mess. They were in bed with Fanny and Freddie”. Those people can their sleazy friends made the millions. Jamie Gorelick made $28M at Fannie Mae with no prior economic experience – other than a sleazy connection to the Clintons.

The problem is all the dumb, ignorant people who keep voting Republican. Unfortunately, they aren’t going anywhere. Just turn on Jerry Springer and there they are.
This country was so great before Reagan. That trickle down, Voo Doo economics Reagan sold to the working class was the beginning of our country’s decline.

“that is why the black berries aren’t in the room
because THEY HAVE TO HAVE A SOLUTION”

Think things are bad now? Just wait — if the shallow one gets elected, we’ll be socialized out of existence.

Don’t the blackberries TALK to each other, while they’re rolling around together in the wastebasket — kind of like the Obama campaign’s telephone games at the Invesco Fiasco?

Re: “those ridiculous loans they gave out at Fannie Mae to people who could not repay them.”
Democrats gave out the loans at Fannie Mae? What an uninformed comment. DEREGULATION caused this. That is the main component of Milton Friedman trickle-down economics. Also known as Voo Doo economics.
This is the result of the Reagan Revolution and the Contract on America and King Dubya.

We ought to get some faces on this. Who is getting paid off with the $700B. What percentage of them are foreign oil money, China, etc.

gang greed is good in a capitalist democracy
it is the engine that makes us go
to want to achieve something “more”
the problem with it…is when you have deregulated the free market so immensely that it was like a doctor handing a patient pain killers and saying here take these…you’ll feel fine
with no prescription or direction.
throw these deregulation zealots out.

Re: “This is not a failure of laissez faire economics”
It’s failture of Milton Friedman Voo Doo economics. We haven’t had Keynsian economics since FDR had to clean up Herbert Hoover’s (R) Great Depression.
The market needs regulation. Even Adam Smith says that!

American tax payers have had it. They do not want to pay for other peoples poor choices. We tax payers did our part. We have had it with guilt and fear politics.
The democrats have now become the party of hate and the republicans the party of fear. We are not buying it any more.
Look at the ridiculous things democrats are doing to Palin. Just hate mongering. Bush and Paulsen trying to scare us.

Bail out #1 – “It is unpatriotic to delay this Bail out. It is the only way to correct the American Economy” Bush spoke these words, and even Republicans spoke those words when they demanded that congress Rush to go along. Bail out #2 – Both Bush and Republicans insisted that to delay the bail out #2 was unsympathetic to the American people. Bail out #3 – Bush, McCain, and Republicans all said Stalling on Bail out #3 would bring down this country. Now Bail out #4 – Republicans are pretending that this is the Democrats fault. This is soo funny I can’t stop laughing.

You should look what mccain and his team has done to palin dragged her into a role she cant do and made her lie..
Then they let her out each time she’s in over her head and looks silly answering even easy questions!
I say send Palin back to Alaska and leave her alone.
mccain owes her a big sorry and america a bigger one!

“I say send Palin back to Alaska and leave her alone.”

Since this has turned into another of the typical stupid mud slinging blog.
1. The American people are idiots.
2. The Democrat’s are idiots
3. The republicans are idiots
We let a private bank, called the Federal reserve, become another branch of government, contrary to the constitution. They print 700 billion out of thin air and we think ain’t that wonderful! Now we’re back to normal. We listen to all the honorable politicians saying see….we saved the day! The hell creeps up over time! We the people have to pay interest back to the Federal reserve for money they never had to begin with. It’s win win for the Fed!!! Country goes down without a bail out…banks take the property. Country get the bailout…Federal reserve gets the interest for nothing. The thing your congressman will fail to tell you is that because they printed that 700 billion your dollar will very shortly be worth 50% what it’s worth now. Struggling to pay your mortgage? 4.00 a gallon painful? 2.00 high for a loaf of bread? Get ready for hell! Let it crash and recover naturally. Let the stupid banks take the loss! Get your money out…let them go bankrupt! Prices drop, income drops, economy gets stable again!

“The Democrats are afraid that if they don’t do what Bush and Paulson say that there will be another Great Depresion.”

“2. The Democrat’s are idiots”

“Get ready for hell! Let it crash and recover naturally. Let the stupid banks take the loss! Get your money out…let them go bankrupt! Prices drop, income drops, economy gets stable again!”

“So who is left to vote for? No third party candidate will win.”

The ones RUNNING to the mics to point fingers have the dirtiest hands.
Politics stink, and the media stink worse.
Instead of covering news, they cover the guilty’s posteriors. Bias? We don’t got no steenking bias!

It is unfortunate that aside from the jabs from both sides there was no real insight from any of the two candidates about how they are going to go about to solve this crisis. I was really disappointed in the debate because of this fact and wish they tackled real solutions rather than just trying to outdo one another. We need an immediate solution to this bailout

What happened to the portion of the bailout going to ACORN to set up a low income housing program? I think we need housing assistance, but payments from the bailout should go to reduce the national debt.

“Read the Declaration of Independence and it will tell you what to do…..first suffer, suffer some more, suffer again, then make revolt.”

Let the mortgagees participate in the so-called “free market” for mortgage assets. I would be happy to pay twice the $8k that Morgan Chase just paid for my $235k mortgage.
That would fix everything, fairly (which of course means that it won’t happen in this country).
Our politicians will pass a bill to fix a deservedly collapsing financial system and our home values will continue their slide, our financial system will continue to offer our mortgages at fire sale prices to everyone in the world except us, and we will be stuck with the usual gargantuan bill. That is America.

“Take your medication”

I am sure Pelosi doesn’t want the 20% to ACORN leaked until it is passed.
I have left the Democratic Party forever.

We should insist that before anything is signed that we know where every cent is going and to whom it is going.
No one bailed out the telecoms when they went under – also from lack of financial oversight. How baout bailing out the poor people who had their money in Enron? No one bailed them out. Why are the democrats suddenly so interested in investors – and unwilling to tell us who they are.

If you don’t get anything out of this blog, just remember one thing and repeat it everytime you hear the word Federal Reserve in the news…especially in the next few days.
The federal reserve is a group of “Private banks”. They are hidden in a mask that says…I’m the government! Search it on the web if you don’t believe me. Then read Jefferon’s quote. This current day situation is like “The Prophecy of Thomas Jefferson”
Thomas Jefferson, Letter to the Secretary of the Treasury Albert Gallatin (1802)
3rd president of US (1743 – 1826)
I believe that banking institutions are more dangerous to our liberties than standing armies. If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their currency, first by inflation, then by deflation, the banks and corporations that will grow up around [the banks] will deprive the people of all property until their children wake-up homeless on the continent their fathers conquered. The issuing power should be taken from the banks and restored to the people, to whom it properly belongs.

Since Bush has been in office, our debt has increased by an average of $500 billion a year. This bailout plan represents more than doubling our single year debt increase. While the sky is not falling and the ‘bailout’ will do little good for most middle class Americans, it WILL cause the U.S. dollar to devalue and inflation to skyrocket. Had Bush followed the economic policy of Clinton when he took office, this would not be such a bad thing. But his instance to implement trickle-down policies, exactly like McCain wants to do, is what really makes this whole mess a disaster.

AintNoFool writes:
“the ‘bailout’ will do little good for most middle class Americans”

“[the 'bailout'] WILL cause the U.S. dollar to devalue and inflation to skyrocket”
–> Inflation is merely an annoyance and/or talking point for the well-heeled. For many of the poor and near-poor, considering that the price of groceries and fuel has ALREADY more than doubled, it will literally be a death sentence.
Considering the relative numbers of individuals involved, the greatest good for the greatest number might be achieved best by the resignation of a hefty proportion of the Congress, including the faint-hearted Senator Obama.

The democrats want this deal signed before monday. This so they can show that the financial markets survived due to their fine work. Lets have a hearing and drag this out a bit to see what the markets are actually doing.
Why is it that the democrats are pushing this and the republicans are not? The root cause is those bad loans at fannie mae.

“Why is it that the democrats are pushing this and the republicans are not?”

If this package is pushed through by the Democrats, no matter what, and the taxpayers are left paying for the abuses of the Wall Street fat cats, every single one of these idiots that vote for the package should be voted out of office.
Our votes are the only power we have against those who abuse political power.
It’s amazing that the Democrats gained control of the house just two short years ago because of the Iraq War. It’s like we’ve traded one monster for another.
The billions that won’t be sent to Iraq once the troops start being withdrawn, will now be spent bailing out Wall Street.
Still not one penny to Main Street.
It’s amazing to me that the Republicans in the House seem to be the only ones who are trying to make sure the taxpayers don’t end up paying for this Bush/Democratic plan.
How dare Pelosi stand up there and blame the House Republicans for not participating in the talks sooner than they did and hold her press conference calling them UNPATRIOTIC. Some Speaker of the House she has turned out to be.

Mak,
You may be right. I don’t think yet….but let’s see how much more they can make us suffer.
I say, why are both parties shutting us out? We will pay the bill yet they’ve gone secret? How dare them!!! Take away the blackberries so no one can leak their secret deals! How dare them!
Do you know the congress had a secret meeting in march of this year? It was the second time in the history of our country. This may be the third. The leak from the march meeting said there would be a collaspe of the stock market in September. They supposedly talked about where they would run when the people came looking for revenge. Who they would lock up in Fema camps, the people who could be a threat to them. Also, oh yea, the kicker, the total collaspe of the federal government in the first quarter of next year. Look it up…it’s on the internet. Now, it sounded crazy when I got the email in march…does it sound crazy now?
They’ve locked us out of our government! This is boardering on something beyond illegal!

A free market wants to make sure that it can keep making money even long term. When the government gets involved for political purposes, it wrecks everything. When they get their fingers into providing people who don’t need loans those same loans, they screw it up. When Government gets their fingers in regulating trades “because they know better”, they force everyone to relearn how to behave since we haven’t been regulation free for nearly 75 years. The Depression was interestingly happening because the government got involved in the US economy heavily in WWII and everyone had to relearn how run businesses again. Now, we have to learn again. We CAN do it. We just need to learn how to run businesses again and learn those REALLY painful lessons. When we do it, then we can get our debt to foreigners under control and run our country in a way that addresses energy, defense, and the environment together.

I bet I know what conversation they’re having tonight in their “secret” meeting! Damn them for a secret meeting in our Congress of America!
Bernake (the fed) is saying…to both parties!!!! Do it or the economy will collaspe. Do it or “the people” will come looking for you! Be afraid! You watch, The democrat’s and the republicans will come out and say…Hi hoe, the witch is dead! It will only be after both parties have signed away our souls.

anybody wonder why the very democrats who have HATED g. bush all these years are suddenly on the same side, pushing for this thing to go through? something wicked this way comes, folks. what’s the deal?

McCain should suspend his campaign and go to Alaska until the polls, if they ever do, begin to tick his way or until after the investigation over whether Sarah Palin fired an Alaska official illegally concludes… whichever comes first!

The dollar had started to strengthen. Now it will decline again. When it does oil prices will rise again helping our enemies. Thus oil must be denominated in a “currency basket” soon. Interest rates fall with stimulus, China goes into recession, there is a peasant revolt, due to no sales to US. The deficit swoons, and services are cut, crime increases with tougher penalties. Food riots happen. Iraq concludes due to lack of funds and shias win along with Iran, who dominate the region and take their oil. The US continues economic decline until it oulaws carbon based fuels in 2020, and then it so poor, manufacturing begins again with low wages, but money comes back in as the US exports and rebuilds again. Medicaid ends, and national health services are rationed. Expensive social programs end, and free trade ends. The world is curved, and we realize America should be on a hill. The dollar is rebacked by a basket of commodities, including solar power production, and becomes strong again, and merges with Canada Mexico and Central America like the Euro. California Republic declares independence, Vermont joins Canada, Texas secedes, along with Florida in 2025.

Hey, did you all forget that neither Obama or John McCain were going to have anything to do with the negotiations? What is the point of them showing up – they haven’t been elected President yet! Furthermore, Obama was very quick to put out a plan that included ways of preventing this from happening again and making sure the people who screwed us don’t get to profit from it. McCain didn’t even read the proposal for days. Some leadership – impulsively threaten to disrupt the elections to no purpose at all. Some judgement that turned out to be.

a breakthrough,a breakthrough,not so fast your fear is not working,mccain or obama not for the bail out,that is not so hard.pelosie’s littlt puppit obama will vote yes and mccain will vote no.

IF YOU ARE COMMENTING HERE BEORE CALLING WASHINGTON…YOU ARE WASTING GOOD OXYGEN!!!!Everyone should call…..Just ask for the Representative of your state!!!All the mailboxes are full….LET”S OFFSHORE THE SWITCHBOARD TO CHINA!!!Call…it doesn’t cost that much compared to $700,000,000,000.00

Newsflash JFA…..the ones that screwed us include Obama advisors Johnson, Raines others, almost the entire black dem caucus and most of the dems, the idiots who have bad credit and took out bad loans, the companies Freddie and Fannie, and Obama’s community organizing thugs at Acorn, which btw the dems are trying to give 20% of the bailout to. I have to say the dems are indeed trying reward the ones responsible.

Yet another fascinating fabrication from Obama, the anointed one. Remember the speech that Obama gave in October, 2002?
The one that never got reported in any of the Chicago newpapers? Well, here is a transcript of Obama discussing his superior judgment with the editorial board of the Des Moines Register:
“The speech that I delivered in 2002 wasn’t just me getting up and yelling, “I’m against the war.”
It was a very clear, specific outline of what I anticipated would happen if we went into war and why we shouldn’t do it. And it stands up pretty well … [it] was based on sound judgment….
Some of it was probably also my lawyer’s training.
I watched pretty carefully the presentation made by Colin Powell at the United Nations.
As a lawyer, you’re trained to poke holes in somebody’s case … it didn’t look particularly strong to me.
END TRANSCRIPT
Wow, that’s pretty impressive. Just one problem: Colin Powell’s speech was in February, 2003. How on earth did Obama see it in 2002? Well, we do know he’s a transformational candidate. Maybe he’s psychic.

Fox is running in type across the bottom of their screen that Acorn works to fill the welfare rolls to harm the government. Yes, Obamabots, your messiah spent years working for Acorn (community organizing)in hopes of killing the taxpayer and country via the welfare class. Get rid of Obama—He is bad for all of us.

Vote No, to the $700 billion bailout!Let Obama handle it after the first of the New Year.

Barney Frank assured us that Freddie and Fannie were sound. He may have been mislead by others, but had the responsibility and authority to investigate. He may not be the only culprit, but he is the primary culprit. The Republicans did bad but the Democrats did worse. I expect power to shift back to Republicans, if they are able to block this bailout. Listen to the Thaddeus McCotter speech on the bailout.

why are we not hearing more about this acorn??
why is only fox saying anything?
are the networks covering for someone??
I guess we can’t handle the truth!!!

Well firstly about acorn and why fox news is the only one running it is simple. Its a lie we all know or sould know that fox news is republican and they will say ANYTHING at this point to smear the dems and why not Bush has been lieing to you for the past 8 years and you have just now all started waking up to it. Secondly the bailout bill was sent to congress by the white house i.e. Bush the republican. It got congress and it had NO OVERSITE AND NO TAXPAYER PROTECTION AND OUTRAGOUS PAYOUTS TO THE EXECS THAT RAN THERE COMPANIES INTO THE GROUND. To me people these are things that NEED to be changed. And the dems are trying to change those things and the republicans are dead set against it. So now you say well the dems are in control of congress right they can simply out vote them. Well yes and no. They could out vote them and send it to the white house where bush has PROMICED TO VETO IT IF THERE ARE THESES CHANGES TO PROTECT THE TAX PAYERS AND REGULATE EXEC PAYOUTS. Why would he do this you ask? Because he is on the way out and only cares on helping those rich folks out so they will remember him when hes out of office. The american people already hate him and they arent going to give him anything so why should he be worried about them at this point. So he vetos the bill it goes back but guess what? Even though the dems are in control THEY ONLY HAVE A 51% MAJORITY!!! THEY CANT OVERRIDE A VETO THAT TAKES A 2/3RDS!!! WHICH THEY CANT GET WITHOUT THE REPUBLICANS THAT DONT SUPPORT THEM SO THE BILL IS DEAD AND EVERYONE THINKS ITS BECAUSE OF THE DEMS THEY HAVE THE MAJORITY THEY MUST HAVE STOPED IT. When in fact they only have 51% so sence we have a republican president they cant do anything in reality the republicans can shut them down and make it look like its there fault. And you people are so stupid you allow fox news to side track you with lies so you dont see how congress and the power of a republican veto works.

Remember how the Patriot Act was passed. Nobody read it. It had to be passed quickly before Congress adjourned. THey passed it, didn’t know what was in it and its now the law of the land and the public suffers the consequences. THat too was a Bush plan, passed by a Democrat majority without any oversight from the American people. Will we know whats in this plan before its voted on? Not if they can help it. I know we’ve got to do something but it better not be a give-away to the corrupt companies, CEO’s and politicians who rely on the donations of these companies.
Yea, I could have bought a house but knew I could not afford it and didn’t. The people who did should not be rewarded for being stupid and greedy. I know alot of people who bought homes thinking they were gonna be ATM machines. Everyday, I would hear people brag about what their house was worth although they had no equity in it. THey then bought new cars, charged up their credit cards and spent wildly on the idea they were making a fortune on a home that’s value was artificially inflated.

“why are we not hearing more about this acorn??”

take away their Blackberrys?…Now maybe they will get things done!…Never should have let them have blackberrys on the floor in the first place…. (by the way do they have stock in the blackberrys?)

Getsmart, ACORN has a history of voter fraud, embezzlement and misuses of taxpayer funds. Here is a quote from the Wall Street Journal just prior to the 2006 election:
“So, less than a week before the midterm elections, four workers from Acorn, the liberal activist group that has registered millions of voters, have been indicted by a federal grand jury for submitting false voter registration forms to the Kansas City, Missouri, election board…. We wish this were an aberration, but allegations of fraud have tainted Acorn voter drives across the country. Acorn workers have been convicted in Wisconsin and Colorado, and investigations are still under way in Ohio, Tennessee and Pennsylvania.”
ACORN is still in the business of registering mass numbers of voters all across the country. And based on the earlier reports the Democrats want ACORN to reap huge benefits from any profits that may occur from this $700 billion rescue package. And guess what? Sen. Obama has a long history with ACORN. He used to work with ACORN as a community organizer. And he used to train ACORN’s Chicago members in leadership seminars. Sen. Obama was once ACORN’s legal council. And Sen. Obama also sat on the boards of Woods Fund and Joyce Foundation that poured money into ACORN. I wonder how much of Sen. Obama’s $900 million worth of earmarks went to ACORN?

The Congressional Democrat bailout that was prematurely announced before McCain arrived on the scene was set to give 20% of any taxpayer profit and “donating” it to ACORN, La Raza, and the Urban League, all left wing “organizations”. La Raza even supports Mexico’s reconquest of the American southwest.
You are damn right I’m glad Sen. McCain went to DC to stop this anti-American piece of garbage the Democrats tried to pass off to the American people.
McCain lead, and Obama wasn’t even smart enough to follow. He was ordered back by the President. Please don’t try to say that anyone told a 25+ year Senator to keep quiet. He was a fresh set of eyes on the scene and taking in a situation; like a TRUE leader.

God or fate may have a bigger plan for BHO.
If he loses Obama will just becomes more of a martyr. People will continue to worship him and ignore the truth.
But if he wins–the media,and the people will not have Bush, McCain,Palin,Republicans as a scapegoat to blame for all the world’s problems.
The blame will all go to Obama,Pelosi, Reid and the Democrats.
As BO breaks promises the media will quickly turn on him. The world will see him for the fraud he really is.

Obama:
Millions in earmarks–Reparations
Taxcuts–Handouts/Welfare
Free Health Care–Controlled by the gov’t,even for illegals, paid by taxpayers
Tax increases–kills small businesses
and jobs

No wonder Obama and Democrats want taxpayers to give millions to ACORN.
ACORN is the only way Obama will win this election.

If Obama wins all eyes will be on him.
Those who supported him will no longer be able to ignore the truth.
He will finally get the vetting he deserves.
And guess who will turn on him first?
The MSM that got him elected.

How dare the house and senate conservative republicans hold up assistance to the main street taxpayers with their stalling tactics on shaping a bailout. Once again they don’t take responsibilty for their own actions or lack therof.
Are they concerned this will dry up the largesse of lobbyist and special interest money they so depend on?

On voting rights, ACORN and its voter mobilization subsidiary, Project Vote, have been involved nationwide in efforts to grant felons the vote and lobbied heavily for the Motor Voter Act of 1993, a law allowing people to register at motor vehicle departments, schools, libraries and other public places. That law had been sought by Cloward and Piven since the early1980s and they were present, standing behind President Clinton at the signing ceremony.
ACORN’s voter rights tactics follow the Cloward-Piven Strategy:
* 1. Register as many Democrat voters as possible, legal or otherwise and help them vote, multiple times if possible.
* 2. Overwhelm the system with fraudulent registrations using multiple entries of the same name, names of deceased, random names from the phone book, even contrived names.
* 3. Make the system difficult to police by lobbying for minimal identification standards.
In this effort, ACORN sets up registration sites all over the country and has been frequently cited for turning in fraudulent registrations, as well as destroying republican applications. In the 2004-2006 election cycles alone, ACORN was accused of widespread voter fraud in 12 states. It may have swung the election for one state governor.

Obama aided ACORN as their lead attorney in a successful suit he brought against the Illinois state government to implement the Motor Voter law there. The law had been resisted by Republican Governor Jim Edgars, who feared the law was an opening to widespread vote fraud.
His fears were warranted as the Motor Voter law has since been cited as a major opportunity for vote fraud, especially for illegal immigrants, even terrorists. According to the Wall Street Journal: “After 9/11, the Justice Department found that eight of the 19 hijackers were registered to vote…”

Belle Starr
We all know BHO was Fannie and Freddie’s biggest cheerleader. Even his supporters know it, they are just to enthralled with the Chosen One to admit this.
I have to say that I like the way these boards are full of McCain supporters now. A few months ago it was all BHO all the time, kinda like MSNBC, CNN, CBS, and (I’ll probably get censored for this) ABC. I wonder when McCain/Palin will get a softball interview outside of Fox News? BHO should be on the record enough on he issues of 1. how he is feeling, and 2. how much he loves his family. I’d like some tough questions, outside of Fox mind you, about Ayers, ACORN, his spiritual mentor choice, his $100,000 taxpayer funded, plywood gazebo, etc…
With McCain the media asks real, presidential questions.
With Obama the media asks generalities.

Your congress is about to spend 700 billion of your money and didn’t even ask you if it was okay….just locked you out by going into a secret meeting? Democrat’s and Republican’s! We all know they have our best interest in mind!
Ask yourself? Am I stupid?

If it was not for McCain going to DC, we would not have known anything about OBAMA’S PARTNER ACORN RECEIVENG 20% OF THE TAXPAYER PROFIT FROM THE FIRST BAILOUT BILL. The democratic party was trying to push the first bailout without us looking. They were exposed by McCain.

Yahoo or Google “Bailout Obama ACORN” to get all the details about Obama relastionship with ACORN and how ACORN will receive most of the taxpayer profit from the bailout plan.

Many economists have written to the political elitists in Washington to tell them this bailout will not work no matter how you slice and dice the thing!
Why won’t it work because the 2 trillion in bailout money is only 4% of the ponzi schemes minimum amount that has been siphoned off the top. The derivatives market is at least a 50 trillion dollar loss waiting to unfold.
Next year after Bush leaves office the
Bank for International Settlements will audit the Federal Reserve even congress cannot audit this elitist private bank.
Remember the first bailouts and other big spending by the Federal Reserve; they had only somewhere around
800 billion at the beginning and could be downgraded to junk or be declared insolvent. That is the reason for the unlimited and unconstitutional call for the original draft of the bailout without strings so the Elitists (Nancy Pelosi, Paulson and friends) could retrieve their money losses without Enron criminalizing of the situation.
Why are the Democrats so willing to risk
being defeated in this election with a total defiance of the American Public that like congresses disapproval ratings disapprove of this bill?

Another find mess brought to us by the Government. If we had a truly free market, with truly free banking irrational, unwieldy loans would be given out much less often and the system would not crash. Indeed, with a free market the wealth and prosperity of Americans would increase dramatically. Freedom works. Freedom means eliminating all regulations. I blame the democrats most, but both parties deserve blame here.
