  • Should this guy get a bailout?

He got sick of selling his stocks and taking his savings to pay his mortgage, so 3 months ago he just stopped paying it, It is a huge, new home. Is he one we are supposed to help?

  • Why is the ACLU saying they want the terrorists from Gitmo released into OUR courts?

    Is it because this liberal group knows that our panty waist courts are going to let them off? We the taxpayers are going to support the terrorists that are involved in killing our citizens?

    And Obama supports this?

  • How will the 845 billion dollar global poverty act be paid for ?

    Big plans for welfare for the UN, healthcare and a mortgage bailout.

    How are we going to pay for it?

    Obama says bringing back the troops will pay but here is what we spent over 5 years on the war and some of that is in the military budget, in salaries.

    As anti-war activists demonstrated around downtown Washington, the president spoke at the Pentagon to mark the anniversary of a war that has cost nearly 4,000 U.S. lives and roughly $500 billion. Obama wants 845 billion above and beyond what we spend already.

    So how is he going to pay again? For new programs.

  • How much money did Obama really receive from Rezko?

    Sun-Times Exclusive: For the first time, Sen. Barack Obama put a figure Friday to the amount of campaign contributions that indicted political fund-raiser Tony Rezko raised for the senator's campaigns, and the number -- about $250,000 -- was far more than he previously acknowledged. "We believe we have identified all money that is traceable. ... It's hard for me to know precisely," Obama said on Friday at the Sun-Times.

    Notice the TRACEABLE?

  • Can we get rid of all the unethical Washington insiders?

    CNSNews.com) - On July 27, 2007, 28 executives of the Thousand Oaks, Calif., pharmaceutical firm Amgen contributed more than $20,000 to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's (D-Calif.) campaign.

    On Aug. 2, Pelosi (D-Calif.) reintroduced the Early Treatment for HIV Act, a bill that could boost Medicaid coverage of HIV-related drugs, including Procrit, which is manufactured by Amgen and marketed by a subsidiary of Johnson & Johnson, a firm in which Pelosi's husband owns at least $250,000 in stock, according to Pelosi's disclosure forms.

    Most of them do it and makes me sick. Here is a woman that could be President if Bush and Cheney died suddenly.

  • Who is Rashid Khalidi?

    There are two unwitting confessions here from Khalidi. First is that he admits there never has been a country called Palestine. Second, and this is Khalidi's true agenda, is his most straightforward admission that he believes Israel has no right to exist -- "occupation by Israel ever since 1948." So a country that never existed is under occupation by a country that shouldn't. This is very revealing stuff, and explains why Khalidi is trying to push so hard to an American audience that genocidal groups dedicated to the destruction of Israel and opposition to the West and things Western ought not concern Americans. This is an argument that has sold well in Europe but has so far gained no traction with Americans who aren't buying it.

  • What kind of tax breaks does the U.S. give to oil companies and to corporations that send jobs overseas?

    Are they trying to fool us?

    Obama, Nov. 3, 2007: When I am president, I will end the tax giveaways to companies that ship our jobs overseas, and I will put the money in the pockets of working Americans, and seniors, and homeowners who deserve a break.

    Clinton, Nov. 19, 2007: And we are going to finally close the tax loopholes and stop giving tax breaks to companies that ship jobs overseas. Enough with outsourcing American jobs using taxpayer dollars.

    But economists, including left-leaning ones, do not agree that eliminating this provision will bring an end to off-shoring. And here’s why: In the U.S., companies are taxed 35 percent on earnings of $10 million to $15 million or on all earnings over $18.3 million. That’s one of the highest corporate tax rates in the world, making an overseas move somewhat attractive to companies that wish to avoid the U.S. tax rate.

    This is not the main reason jobs are send overseas. We don't have the same educated people that they do.

  • Is Obama paying for the super delegate votes?

    "The Clintonites say that Obama is peddling 'false hopes.' They suggest that the fervor of the crowds at his rallies is somehow 'creepy,' as though his followers are like a herd of sheep who would follow Obama off a cliff.' But Obama is clearly touching a nerve in America's body politic--a pent-up idealism that seeks not utopia but simply a more decent society."

    What if both things are true? Obama has a cult-like following because he is touching a nerve and appeals to pent-up idealism. Obama is the flip side of Ross Perot who thought America was going to the dogs and only Ross could turn things around. Obama thinks only Obama can turn it around. The difference? Obama beats you to death with two words: "hope" and "change" and then he gives $600,000 to the campaigns of superdelegates including $10,000 to the King of Pork, Sen. Robert Byrd (D-West Va.)." Some hope, some change. So much for new politics.

  • Who is Nahdmi Auchi?

    Who is Mr. Auchi? A British billionaire living in London, born in Iraq in 1937. And why would he, as it is alleged, lend money via a Panama company, Fintrade Services -- of which his wife, Ibtisam Auchi, is said to be a director -- to a freshmen U. S. senator from Illinois just a few months after he is sworn in as a very junior member of what was then a Democratic minority?

    Who is Mr. Auchi, said to be the 279th richest man in the world, that he would provide through his overseas company wire transfers of $3,499,471 in April 2007, and another $200,000 in July 2007, to Antoin "Tony" Rezko, an indicted Chicago developer accused of defrauding Illinois citizens of at least $6 million? Rezko is a successful and veteran fundraiser for, among others, Illinois Governor Rod Blagojevich and U.S. Senator Barack Obama.
