You have not seen this person holding this sign before. You can go about your business. Move along.
- Heard this one on a local talk show… BO saying:
“If we’re going to ask questions about who has been promulgating negative ads that are completely unrelated to the issues at hand, I think I win that contest pretty handily.”
Well, yeah, I think I can agree with that, yes.
- As usual, when the going gets tough, the Democrats in Congress go on Vacation [1]. What’s their approval rating, these days, 12%, or something?
- So, Biden is now calling paying higher taxes a ‘patriotic act’? [2] At the same time, I see he doesn’t figure giving that money to charity is all that patriotic. Despite his huge income, he gives very little indeed [3]. I guess that’s the kind of nonsense you’d expect from someone who has raised taxes every time he had the chance. So has Obama. It’s quite clear, folks that the Democrats as is usual, have given us a very anti-private sector ticket. We’re dealing with people whose sensibilties are drawn directly from Das Kapital. Mark this well, folks, these people think America is great not because of it’s freedoms, but because of it’s government. That’s exactly why this financial meltdown is being blamed not on the government actions that caused it, but on the free enterprise- free market model. This whole problem, folks is rooted at the Fannie Mae business a point which you will never hear from Obama, and Biden, because they both had a hand in propping up FDR’s monster. If the Republicans are smart, they’ll start banging this drum… loudly. Frankly, though, I wonder if they’re quite that bright. We’ll see.
- I’m not sure if this is good or not, but The Donald [4]is now a McCain supporter.
- There’s still a lot of traffic on Sarah Palin’s Email being hacked. Remember when the government breaking into people’s Emails used to be the fear from the BDS crowd? Now it’s apparently their tool of choice. What interests me is that virtually nobody is shocked by this happening. It’s almost like they think all is as it should be. And now, perhaps we have an idea of why the leftists were all bent outta shape when they figured out McCain doesn’t use the net much. Ignore for the moment his disability; Looks form here like the reason they got so loud with that meme was… wait for it….He didn’t have anything they could hack into.
- So, as David noted [5]earlier today, Obama is now telling his mindless supporters to ‘Argue, and get in their face’ [6]. Hell, Barry, they’re already doing that. Guess what? They’ve already lost. You really think getting louder with the same BS arguemnt is going to change things?
[7]So DHS has partnered with Sesame Street? [8] I suppose there’s a logical reason, here, but it does strike me that this one’s already been covered, in the graphic presented here… and this ones a couple years old. Someone’s a little behind on their press releases, methinks.- The Democrats are breathing a sigh of relief, I’m willing to bet. The recent financial issues have given them some diversion from the criminal actions of William Jefferson, and Charlie Rangel. Have you noticed they’ve not gotten much in the way of news space?
- Me at the Glittering Eye [9]:
Good post.
But look, your title implies the real answer, here.
The best thing we can do is make sure the government stays out of the home loan industry altogether. The problem is not free markets or the investment world. The problem is government. In this case, specifically, the FDR creation of Fannie Mae, and it’s recent mismanagement of it.As I’ve pointed out else where… Let’s not delude ourselves into thinking that F&F are anything but governmental creations, run by political appointees, who turned around and raped the place so badly it crashed. If all the banks in the world were to coordinate their efforts, in trying to create this large an issue, absent governmental involvement in the home loan industry, it could not happen. The key here is government, and the abuse of power thereof. - Glenn points out that Charlie Rangel has yet another scandal on his hands [10]. As William Jefferson demonstrates, though, this too shall go away with no penalty to be paid. With the defference being paid to black Democrats just now in ters of criminal behavior, does anyone really consider it possible that an Obama administration would ever be held to account?
- By the way, speaking of things disappearing, has anyone noticed that Global Warming [11]iis now under the carpet as a topic?
