    Who played the financial markets to crash down for Obama's favor? THE TIMING WAS VERY CRITICAL. Right when Mccain was in the lead. How many "international " investors were involved? who is bent to make Barack Husein Obama the POTUS? fIRST THEY PLAYED THE energy crisis. WE beat them. Then they withdrew their holdings and support for our fianancial system. "AMERICA had it coming". WE entertained all these back stabbers who were more than ready to pull the money away from wall street market. All so legally. Govt had to step in to stop the short sale of uSA. YOu liberals who play with antiamerican terrorist coutries, we will let you know you also hold the other end of this stick.

    George Sorros has helped to bring down governments thru currency and financial market manipulation... leading too hyper-inflation and the collapse of national economies.

    George Sorros has used hedge funds, derivatives and his enormus wealth too collapse the currency of Malaisia, and Argentina... Thereby, destabilizing their governments, too bring about political changes favorable to his socialist agenda.

    Men like Mr Sorros will stop at nothing, believing the ends, justify the means... any means. His nortorious use of hedge funds and other speculative forms of currency and market manipulation is well known. He is adept at using speculative capitol instruments to destabilize economies, on a national scale. It would not surprise me if he and a few other hyper-rich have engineered the present crisis in America's economy, for political gain.

    The wise, would be prudent too follow the money invloved, too find the source of the current crisis. Global scales of economies are now centralized in the hands of a very few... Men, who with adept application of their economic power can bring down national economies by the fraudulent manipulation of currencies and markets.

    The financing of American Politics has become so corrupt that one can not be certain who is contributing. The use of the internet to accept donations opens a whole host of possible abuses. It is essentially impossible to verify the source for every contribution made over the internet. Hence, one can donate in the name of others or simply manufacture ficticious individuals by the millions.

    The love of money is the root of all evil and politics certainly loves money. It is past time for real campaign reform. We need to limit the time for campaigns to 90days and to fund campaigns using the public trust... Free air time (TV & Radio) for debates; limited (regulated amounts) of direct mail, paid thru by francking prievleges and strick limits placed on the amounts of private money spent for campaigning.

    It is obsurd to think that corruption is not breed in a system that requires hundred of millions to run political campaigns. Polictical cronyism, the unrestrained enfluence of the rich and insider elitists, currently control our two party system. The result has been rule by fiat... The lack of real choice and governance of the people, by the people... and for the people.

    Currently, the party elitist control those who are nominated as candidates for office... Hence, they limit the people's choices for who governs. A system of elitist who govern according too the will of a select few, has created a political system governed by fiat... the dictates of political party hacks.

    It is past time that the People... reassert their control over their government. This can only be done thru real reform of the political process. Reform, that limits terms and creates ligitimate access for all... to the ballolt boxes of America. It is time to return the power of choice at the ballot to America... let us demand real reform and end the rule of governance by party fiat.

    RA NELSON

    Finally, voter fraud is rapent in America. Late returns are not uncommon in many precints where the polls are controled by political hacks who are willing too hold the ballot box hostage until... every vote is counted and counted and counted and counted until they get the outcome they need to win. It was Joseph Stalin of the Soviet Union who once said words of this effect... He who counts the votes, wins. This strategy seems to have become the mantra of certain... party elites.

    This November I will be doing what every Christian should be doing including Obama, Biden, McCain and Palin. We should all look to our Lord Jesus for our vote selection. Which candidate will allow Jesus to bless our country during the next four years. Jesus is strongly against abortion, gay-rights and terrorism. The democrats have historically been for these things. Yes, even terrorism as they have never stopped being against the Iraq war. Due to our efforts in Iraq terrorists are now forced into the mountains of Pakistan - basically cornered between a rock and a hard place. If we as Christians turn our backs on Jesus, will He turn His back on us?

    BTW ... excellent article Mr Isikoff and thank you Newsweek for not squashing it.

    I find it hypocritical to blame the Republicans for the credit crisis on one hand and accept credit card donations with the other. Considering Mr. Obama has raised such an incredible amount of money for both himself and the credit card companies, perhaps his campaign should contribute to easing the crisis.
    A democrat voting independent.

  • Posted By: too_eazy @ 10/11/2008 8:28:25 AM

    Why is it that being a dirty democrat is sexy, but being a dirty republican is scary? Morally it doesn't make sense. I don't like Obama because he hasn't done ANYTHING. Ask Chicago what he's accomplished. Ask Illiinois what he's accomplished. Being black doesn't mean you're socially entitled - as a freebie payback because of your race. EARN the presidency with your word and your backbone. You can't vote for Obama because you seriously think he has a history of Change. He hasn't changed anything.

  • Posted By: 1Love @ 10/11/2008 4:18:02 AM

    PJOE - you're just a sheep like the rest of the hate-filled bigoted new breed or right wingers. Now THAT is something to get scared about. Try getting an education and opening your narrow mind. It'll feel good to get a brain. I seriously doubt you make enough money to want McCain in office anyhow.

    btw...howz ur 401 K doin? ;)

    Hate. That''s all you know. Tell me, what's more frightening: Realising the separatist game of white against black is a ploy that's been used to distract you from the reality of your stalemated social economic status or that you blindly follow your authoritarian conservative leaders without question because you lack the ability to think rationally or in any form for yourself? Theorectically they both suck and are sad statements of existence but they are really the only options...for you anyway.

    After the Al Gore - Buddhist's nuns scandal,
    after the Acorn "voter registration" scheme,
    after the Democrat's effort to keep military votes out of the 2000 election,
    after the Democrat's effort to keep convicted felon votes in the 2000 election,
    after the hate-America speeches of Obama's various supporters, friends, mentors, and relatives,
    after the tar-and-feathering of Sarah Palin by Obama's supporters (MSNBC, CNN, etc),
    after Obama's support of socialist-party nominee for senate,
    after the communist-party's support of Obama,
    after Hamas support of Obama,
    after the Nation of Islam's support for Obama,
    ... yeah ... I guess I am starting to get a little paranoid.

    IA with Obama why should he share information about people who donated to his campaign its a violation of their privacy. Of course McCain would cause Republicans forget that silly things like right to privacy particularly when they want to trample on civil liberties. You can tell McCain have no clue or care about the constitution.

    • Posted By: ruthy5599 @ 10/11/2008 12:24:23 AM

      of course obama will not tell where he gets some of his donors, they are from the middle east, ummmmm, thats makes you wonder! probably from some of his shady friends that got him threw law school and helped him get threw other things , like taking peoples names off a ticket obama was running on, so that obama would win! i don't know ,but obama had a lot of help to get were he is today, from bad, bad, bad radicals!

    • Posted By: SallyFR @ 10/05/2008 11:43:14 AM

      Why? Because it is in our CONSTITUTION - you know that thing that so many have died for and that is between us and chaos. NO foreign contributions - it's there. That means prefer to check than take "anything you can get" which is what appears to be what the Obama people are doing - or they would give their database for a review by the SEC. That isn't "angry old man" it is "deviously agressive young man ready to flout & blindsight not only poor "believers" like you but also our Constitution for a win at any price - SAD.

  • Posted By: ritz17 @ 10/10/2008 9:48:34 PM

    I'm just really tired of the Obama bashing and fear-mongering, when in fact it's the Mac-Palins who need to be investigated in every aspect and on every level. Why do the Pubs always get a free ride? I do not understand the double standard and frankly, it's is time for c-h-a-n-g-e.

    • Posted By: ruthy5599 @ 10/11/2008 12:06:41 AM

      i like to know when they are going to investigate obama from top to bottom, inside and out, up and under? obama sure don't want the truth to come out about him! he knows it will be all over! all he can say is, "thats when i was eight years old" boy he sure has been eight years old for a long, long time! but then that is how an eight year old lies!

  • Posted By: thehappyamerican @ 10/09/2008 8:27:04 PM

    Obama may have gotten a tip that through next debate the issue of gun rights, boarder security. illegal immigration, Americans drug problems may be coming up, so he has to go buy 30 minutes of 'I-MEANT-TO-SAY" To try to countermand the stammering and stupidity he can anticipate on the last debate!
    And McCain will name names and be specific about Obama shady deals and creepy friends and partners!
    This time, you are not blowing anyone off the ticket ,Obama. You've never won an election with a standing opponent.
    McCain has always won his fights as an underdog...coming up from behind! And past!
    A question,Obama? Was Ayres a pedophile when you met him? You were 8 years old when
    Ayres was bombing to bring all the worlds violence to the American streets (yyess?) and then....?
    Ayres and the Weathermen indulged in sexual deviance as a group when you were 8 years old... and then?

    • Posted By: coldsilverain @ 10/10/2008 9:17:08 AM

      In case you didn't notice, Obama answered the questions and made much more sense. He, like most people, like to think about what they are going to say before they make a idiot out of themselves like Palin has so many times, so what if he stammers. McCain just covers up his verbal flaws by repeating the "my friends" comments and "maverick". Don't get me started on Palin because McCain has trained her to talk around the question the same way he does.

      • Posted By: coldsilverain @ 10/10/2008 9:23:38 AM

        The pedophile comments you made were just sickening. Do you really believe this drivel or are you just an ignorant @$$? Come back when you have a logical reasoning for your hate other than..."Uh, he's black, name is Hussein, and McCain/Palin said he's a terrorist." Hello, do you really think he would be in the Presidential Race if that were true? Morons on this board just baffle me. Vote Obama 08 to get this country back on the right track. Stop the hate, here and overseas. God bless our Military and keep them safe.

        • Posted By: Vypurr @ 10/10/2008 8:52:03 PM

          Stop the hate? LMAO! Have you not read any of the left wing hate-filled things posted here about McCain and especially Palin? I think what you really mean by that is "agree with me and let's become a socialist country". No thank you!

        • Posted By: thehappyamerican @ 10/10/2008 2:21:15 PM

          I don't believe you're as concerned about our military as you pretend to be. Ayres is a terrorist and the organizational goal was to bring all the violence around the world onto the streets of America. Obama's campaign is a version of the DNC's hate campaign against christians, achievers, police, military profrssionals and gun owners.
          He, like Ayres, is a hatefull fraud. And they are attacking our election process indifferent ways. And if he had any concern about our troops he would not openly announce withdraw plans or where we need to attack next...because he's giving intelegence material to the enemy... who he insists he will negotiate with.
          Now something attracted Ayres to Obama and Obama to Ayres. The Weathermen did made a point to participate in groups sexual perversions! Sex was part of their recruitment gimmick.
          Palin is hated by Democrats because she is a woman who does not talk in the discrimination campaign language against the Americans who make this country work. And Obama dodges questions! A mouth full of hot air!

    I am so sick of seeing all these FALSE e-mails. If you don't have the intelligence to go to SNOPES.com or FACTCHECK.org and get the TRUTH, you should not be posting. All it does is show YOUR ignorance along with whoever wrote the e-mail in the first place.

  • Posted By: obgyn @ 10/10/2008 11:19:18 AM

    Did any of these people telling lies on Mr. Obama bother to research the truth.
    He NEVER went to a muslim school. It was Catholic.

      No you are wrong he never went to a Catholic school,, Get your facts right

    If this guy is elected it will be an through that kind of fraud... He is a crook and a liar.. I will never consider that inexperienced creep my president.. and I blame the media for his rise he could not even shine John McCain's shoes...

  • Posted By: Irishmom2eb @ 10/10/2008 6:53:34 PM

    This guy is worse than any crook in jail and he is going to be our president... NOT MINE

  • Posted By: Jimbo56 @ 10/07/2008 6:47:47 AM

    Have you heard about who Obamanites are getting registerd to vode, convicted fellons and homeless people. To think that he needs homeless people and fellons to win an election just shows how low this guy will go to win an election. Not only accepting Muslim money from overseas, which I just read he is finally being investigated for, but also getting the scum of the earth to vote for him.

    The rest of the US needs to stand up and say enough is enough. We might not like McCain, but he is a far cry better than this obamanation..

    • Posted By: NC2Blue @ 10/07/2008 5:25:03 PM

      INNOVATION: Registering homeless people, and recommending registration be allowed for CERTAIN felons on a case by case basis to be determined by the states.

      DESPARATION: Calling your colleague and opponent a terrorist.

      Funny, McCain didn't have problem working with Obama before he was his opponent. Given his self appointed role, you would think that would have raised this issue years ago. Or maybe just months ago - when he slammed the NC press for doing the same. My how times change...

      • Posted By: Vypurr @ 10/10/2008 6:20:12 PM

        Stop spinning. No one is calling Hussein a terrorist. He is however, being called out on his extremely poor judgment in associating with one.

        Your ''innovation'' is much older than Obama.
