A Freddie Mac Money Trail Catches Up With McCain

@ HarleyisHere - I'll give this one more try as if you stop the race non-sense! I'm not white - My Family only got to this county recently - Where I come from People ask you YOUR name then they know who your family is. We get here and nothing but Black & White - You Reagan had a Great Statement - "Let those seeking the office of political power know that office has limits for a taxation that over burdens the population enslaves them. As government gets bigger, be assured liberties shrink" - I still believe that. I could care-less about Obam's Skin color. Its his Politics I don't like. His History has some very questionable people in it.

@ HarleyisHere You know I just read your long post again - Clearly - Your neither educated or informed. This is a chance for YOUR race to do something good and you guys are still crying like whites owe you something..Well You know what? maybe your correct - Lets see what could we give HarleyisHere - Interesting..OK YOU think Whites have all the JOBS - So that would mean all my taxes are paying for Government programs we don't use!..Hey OK there you Pal We'll give you another Government Program this time You get to pick..

Both parties are to blame for the mess, but only one candidate had a key player as his campaign chairman: This is from the Houston Chronicle, http://www.chron.com/disp/story.mpl/business/steffy/6012610.html
"Paving the way for today's financial supermarkets was, to be sure, a bipartisan affair. The law was signed by Bill Clinton, and Clinton's Treasury secretary, Robert Rubin, now sits atop Citigroup.





The new law blurred the lines among financial institutions, allowing them to dabble in home lending, stockbrokering, wealth management, investment banking, commodities trading, insurance and a slew of other activities that swirled into the miasma from which the current crisis grew.

A year later, Gramm co-sponsored the Commodity Future Modernization Act, which exempted arcane derivative investments such as credit default swaps from government regulation.

@ american idiot No, But I'll check it out now - Thanks

Yeah, Frank Raines. Have you guys even READ the Washington Post article the Mccsame ad based their attack ad on? Here's the ONLY quote about Obama:
"and more recently, taken calls from Barack Obama's presidential campaign seeking his advice on mortgage and housing policy matters."
That's it. "taken calls" Rick Davis is Mccain's CAMPAIGN MANAGER big difference.

How is this dirt? Umm - :Let me count the ways - The PALIN Lipstick comment (but when she calls him a street organizer) which really that what he is - Screams of Racism - Gary Williams NY TIMES write an article "suggesting" perhaps Pain???s daughter got knocked up by incest - How many articles did I read of people thinking Palin should have aborted her Son "Trig" because he has down Syndrome, Dawn Fowler Chairperson of the SC DNC saying Palin is only qualified to be VP because she never had an abortion - ARE YOU KIDDING ME! Her Husband during Katina said GOD MUST BE A DEMOCRAT because this would help their chances in 08. Even though both apologized - The DEMS also show who they are - The Death, Doom, Destruction, Despair and Depression Party

I think it can be said that the poor application of credit is near the foundation of our current financial situation. Legislation from government, Community Reinvestment Act of 1977  http://www.ffiec.gov/cra/default.htm ) and modified many times since, may have a direct correlation with a our current national situation. I think the lack of money available for lending, at this time, will slow our nations financial growth. I think, because of the lack of money for lending, small business, who as a group employ the most people, will be the most affected in our nations business community. Without a vibrant business community, cash flow diminishes, employment diminishes, tax collection diminishes. As the state of Michigan is experiencing with their implementation of planned increased taxes on business, Michigan as a result did not increase their collected taxes, instead Michigan is experiencing the opposite effect as Michigan is now operating with a negative cash flow budget, Michigan is now spending more tax money than tax money collected.

@ SEAEPTON - You say: "Are we protecting ill informed racist right wing voters???. I???ll assume I'm one of those guys simply because you say...But anyway, ha-ha! Actually no, We're protecting the country from a Muslim that has way to many friends like Bill Ayers, AXELROD, ODINKA, REV. WRIGHT, etc..etc.. Show me who your friends are and I'll show you WHO you are. Check out his inner circle - Newsweek will only go so far and you can forget the mainstream "AP", UPI, etc..etc..

Newsweek, here, allow me to do your job on this budget -mess "plan" - 10 Days ago (19) Sept. HARRY REID was asked about the crisis - He said "We???re not sure what to do, we need John here (Mc Cain) - After he shows up before the debate every single DEM said what? "We don't need pres. interference, we had a plan but JOHN blew it up" THEY ASKED!! Now, consider this ONE question Just one Newsweek. They have enough votes to pass their "plan" without the GOP. So why didn't they approve it if its so good? Why didn't they say: THE HEG with the GOP? BECAUSE THEY NEVER HAD A PLAN - They tried to sandbag McCain but the real reason here? That 700 BILLION, 20% is going to go to ACORN (Obama's always In court buddies) - Go Ask PELOSI and HARRY and FRANK and Dodd just this ONE Question. Go - Call me when your done see what they say

Would Republicans give O'Bama a break if he had been one of the Keating Five? It might be helpful to compare these two particular historic economic crises. God only knows why McCain is still in office. Are we protecting ill informed racist right wing voters regarding the disingenuous conduct of McCain and the Republican party? Does McCain have to catch "Moe's pass and score a goal for the other team?
