Does John McCain "pal around with terrorists?"

Certainly McCain's continuing "association" and relationship with the convicted [Watergate Burglar] and [Domestic Terrorist G. Gordon Liddy] might suggest that is the case, if we are to apply the standards drawn by the McCain campaign.

NOTE: In 1998, Liddy gave a fundraiser in his Scottsdale, Arizona home for McCain's senatorial re-election campaign -- the two posed for photographs together; and as recently as May, 2007, as a presidential candidate, McCain was a guest on Liddy's syndicated radio show. Inexplicably, McCain heaped praise on his host's values. During the segment, McCain said he was "Proud" of Liddy, and Praised Liddy's "Adherence to the Principles and Philosophies that keep our Nation Great." From the program:

LIDDY: Your experience in the Hanoi Hilton is remarkable. I mean, I put in five years in a prison [for masterminding the Watergate burglary, and associated crimes], but it was here in the United States, and they didn't torture - the only torture that I had was being forced to listen to rap music from time to time.

McCAIN: Well, you know, I'm proud of you. I'm proud of your family. I'm proud to know your son, Tom, who's a great and wonderful guy. And it's always a pleasure for me to come on your program, Gordon. And congratulations on your continued success and adherence to the principles and philosophies that keep our nation great.


Which of Liddy's "Principles and Philosophies" was McCain referring to? Liddy's advocacy of [Break-Ins? Fire Bombings? Assassinations? Kidnappings]?

Re: Liddy's "continued success and adherence to the principles and philosophies that keep our nation great:" Did McCain mean to include Liddy's instructions to listeners of his radio show in 1994 (around the time Ayres and Obama were on a board together discussing education programs and other plots) on how to shoot Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms agents (aim for the head)?

If ATF agents attempt to curtail a citizen's gun ownership, Liddy counseled, "Well, if the Bureau of Alcohol Tobacco and Firearms comes to disarm you and they are bearing arms, resist them with arms. Go for a head shot; they're going to be wearing bulletproof vests."

More recently, Liddy explained making the Clintons objects of shooting practice:

OBAMA HAS REPEATEDLY VOTED FOR HIGHER TAXES IN THE U.S. SENATE

IT IS NO SURPRISE THAT OBAMA WOULD RAISE TAXES AS PRESIDENT, BECAUSE HE HAS REPEATEDLY VOTED FOR HIGHER TAXES IN THE SENATE:

* Voted At Least 94 Times For Higher Taxes In The U.S. Senate.
To Date, Obama Has Voted For A Tax Increase Approximately Once Every Five Days Congress Has Been In Session. (RNC Research; The Library Of Congress Website, thomas.loc.gov, Accessed 6/8/08)
* Obama Voted At Least 12 Times For Higher Income Taxes.
* Obama Voted Against Marriage Penalty Relief At Least Twice.
* Obama Voted Against Extending The Expanded Child Tax Credit.
* Obama Voted At Least 3 Times Against Repealing The 1993 Income Tax Increase On Social Security Benefits.
* Obama Has Voted At Least 5 Times Against Providing Relief From The Alternative Minimum Tax.
* Obama Has Voted At Least 7 Times Against Tax Incentives Benefitting Small Business.
* Obama Voted Against Capital Gains Tax Cuts At Least 9 Times. (RNC Research)
* Obama Voted Against Tax Cuts On Dividend Income At Least 9 Times.

OBAMA VOTED IN FAVOR OF THE DEMOCRATS FY 2009 BUDGET, WHICH WOULD RAISE TAX RATES FOR AMERICANS EARNING AS LITTLE AS $31,850:

* Obama Voted Twice In Favor Of The Democrats FY 2009 Budget Resolution. (S. Con. Res. 70, CQ Vote #85, Adopted 51-44: R 2-43; D 47-1; I 2-0, 3/14/08, Obama Voted Yea; S. Con. Res. 70, CQ Vote #142: Adopted 48- 45: R 2- 44; D 44- 1; I 2-0, 6/4/08, Obama Voted Yea)

* The Democrats Budget Would Raise Taxes On Individuals Earning As Little As $31,850. Under both Democratic plans, tax rates would increase by 3 percentage points for each of the 25 percent, 28 percent and 33 percent brackets. At present, the 25 percent bracket begins at $31,850 for individuals and $63,700 for married couples. The 35 percent bracket on incomes over $349,700 would jump to 39.6 percent.

NOTE: Obamas Vote For The Democrats Budget Is At Odds With His Rhetoric On The Campaign Trail, Where He Claims He will Provide Tax Relief For Working Americans. Obama: I???ll give a tax cut to working people ??? (Sen. Barack Obama, Remarks At A Campaign Rally, Denver, CO, 1/30/08)

OBAMAs DANGEROUS PALS
Baracks Organizer Buds Pushed for Bad Mortgages
(Includes ACORNs Impact on Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac Downfall)
By Stanley Kurtz
September 29, 2008

(Part 1 of 2)

Excerpt:

Chutzpah: ACORNs (Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now)
DRIVE TO LOWER MORTGAGE STANDARDS PAVED THE WAY for the MELTDOWN - yet last week, it was holding protests like this one in Florida, trying to get a cut of the financial-market-rescue bill.

WHAT exactly does a COMMUNITY ORGANIZER DO? Barack Obamas rise has left many Americans asking themselves that question. Here is a big part of the answer: Community organizers INTIMIDATE BANKS into making HIGH-RISK LOANS to customers with POOR CREDIT.

In the name of fairness to minorities, community organizers OCCUPY private offices, CHANT inside bank lobbies, and CONFRONT executives at their homes - and thereby FORCE financial institutions to direct hundreds of millions of dollars in mortgages to low-credit customers.

In other words, community organizers HELP TO UNDERMINE THE US ECONOMY by pushing the banking system into a SINKHOLE OF BAD LOANS. And OBAMA has spent YEARS TRAINING AND FUNDING THE ORGANIZERS WHO DO IT.
THE seeds of todays financial meltdown lie in the Community Reinvestment Act (CRA) - a law passed in 1977 and MADE RISKIER by unwise amendments and regulatory rulings in later decades.

CRA was meant TO ENCOURAGE banks to MAKE LOANS TO HIGH-RISK BORROWERS, often minorities living in unstable neighborhoods. That has provided an opening to radical groups like ACORN to abuse the law by forcing banks to make hundreds of millions of dollars in subprime loans to often uncreditworthy poor and minority customers.

(Part 2 of 2 - ACORN - OBAMAs DANGEROUS PALS)


Any bank that wants to expand or merge with another has to show it has complied with CRA - and APPROVAL CAN BE HELD UP BY COMPLAINTS FILED by groups like ACORN. In fact, intimidation tactics, public charges of racism and threats to use CRA to block business expansion have enabled ACORN to extract hundreds of millions of dollars in loans and contributions from Americas financial institutions.

Banks already overexposed by these shaky loans were pushed still further in the wrong direction when government-sponsored Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac began buying up their bad loans and offering them for sale on world markets. Fannie and Freddie acted in response to Clinton administration pressure to boost homeownership rates among minorities and the poor. However compassionate the motive, the result of this systematic disregard for normal credit standards has been financial disaster.

ONE key pioneer of ACORNs subprime-loan shakedown racket was Madeline TALBOTT - an ACTIVIST WITH EXTENSIVE TIES TO BARACK OBAMA. She was also in on the ground floor of the disastrous turn in Fannie Maes mortgage policies. Long the director of Chicago ACORN, Talbott is a specialist in DIRECT ACTION - organizers term for their MILITANT TACTICS OF INTIMIDATION AND DISRUPTION. Perhaps her most famous stunt was leading a group of ACORN protesters breaking into a meeting of the Chicago City Council to push for a living wage law, shouting in defiance as she was arrested for mob action and disorderly conduct. But her real legacy may be her drive to push banks into making risky mortgage loans.

...And Barackzustra went under. And he came to a crowd. And each man fervently read a well worn book. And Barackzustra said : "Stop clinging you bitter clingers" And the crowd was curious and listened. "Man is a creature that must be overcome. I teach you the Upper West Side Man." And the crowd ran him out of town. And Barackzustra thought: " I have come too early. They are not ready."

McCain is a [Acorn Man] and other Republicans too !!!

40% of Acorn's Registered Voters have been [Republicans]

Hahahaha !!

On Monday, the Democratic-leaning group ACORN, which has been painted as a criminal enterprise by the GOP for its voter registration and housing policy efforts, pushed back against its critics by producing a photo of John McCain attending its March 2006 rally.



It was a reminder that, for all their electoral histrionics, Republicans have aligned themselves with ACORN in the past.

Indeed, in addition to the McCain photo, there is a host of examples of prominent McCain surrogates attending ACORN events, signing ACORN legislation, or complimenting the group's efforts.

Florida Gov. Charlie Crist, for example, partnered with ACORN in March 2008 for a "Homeownership Promotes The Economy" taskforce. More recently, Crist declared that -- contrary to GOP outrage -- he was not upset with the group's voter registration efforts in his state. The New York Times reported that ACORN supported a law signed by Governor Crist, which "changed the rules last year to restore the voting rights of about 112,000 former convicts."

In July 2005, meanwhile, another Republican governor, Rick Perry of Texas, signed ACORN's Lending Law Reform Bill that changed the state's homelending practices.



In July 2008, California Governor and McCain supporter Arnold Schwarzenegger signed a bill that ACORN helped draft aimed at California homeowners facing foreclosure.


In June 2007, Minnesota Governor and McCain VP short-lister Tim Pawlenty signed a similar bill -- drafted by ACORN -- that helped homeowners get fairer deals on their mortgages.

"The legislation was drafted according to recommendations made by a predatory lending study group established by Swanson prior to the legislative session," wrote the Northwestern Financial Review. "The study group contained representatives from the banking industry and the mortgage brokers association, as well as consumer advocates from organizations such as Illegal Aid and ACORN."

As Governor of Massachusetts, Mitt Romney signed an anti-predatory lending bill that ACORN supported. In February 2006, Connecticut Senator Joe Lieberman met with the ACORN Katrina Survivors Association. And back in July 2005, New York City mayor Michael Bloomberg actually got a kiss from ACORN's state leader, according to the publication City Limits, during an announcement that the city would protect or create 65,000 affordable units in a new housing proposal. Bloomberg, it should be noted, has not endorsed a candidate.

Todd & Sarah Palin's Hatefilled, Secessionist Party, The 3rd largest Political Party in alaska, Todd Palin was a Member for 7 Years and is Not a registered Republican. Demand that Sarah & Todd Palin Renounce and Denounce the Anti-American-Secessionist beliefs and teachings ...

Newswekk Magazine ...Please, I'm Begging You NewsWeek, Put sarah and Todd Palin to task for their Anti-American Connections.

AIP's creation was inspired by the rabidly violent anti-Americanism of its founding father Joe Vogler, "I'm an Alaskan, not an American," reads a favorite Vogler quote on AIP's current website, "I've got no use for America or her damned institutions." According to Vogler AIP's central purpose was to drive Alaska's secession from the United States. Alaska, says current Chairwoman Lynette Clark, "should be an independent nation."

Vogler was murdered in 1993 during an illegal sale of plastic explosives that went bad. The prior year, he had renounced his allegiance to the United States explaining that, "The fires of hell are frozen glaciers compared to my hatred for the American government." He cursed the stars and stripes, promising, "I won't be buried under their damned flag...when Alaska is an independent nation they can bring my bones home." Palin has never denounced Vogler or his detestable anti-Americanism.

Palin's husband Todd remained an AIP party member from 1995 to 2002.

Sarah can be described in McCarthy-era palaver as a "fellow traveler."

While retaining her Republican registration, she attended the AIP's 1994 convention where the party called for a draft constitution to secede from the United States and create an independent nation of Alaska.

The McCain Campaign has reluctantly acknowledged that she also attended AIP's 2000 Convention.

She apparently found the experience so inspiring that she agreed to give a keynote address at the AIP's 2006 convention and she recorded a video greeting for this year's 2008 convention.

In other words, this is not something that happened when she was eight!

So when Palin accuses Barack of "not seeing the same America as you and me," maybe she is referring to an America without Alaska. In any case, isn't it time the media start giving equal time to Palin's buddy list of anti-American bombers and other radical associates?

Biggest one day increase in the Dow in market's history. However:

"The Dow's lone decliner was General Electric (GE, Fortune 500), which reported weak quarterly earnings late Friday. It was also among the 18 components of the S&P 500 that didn't join the rally.???"

Another reason might be that, having provided a soapbox for socialist through its NBC division, the market no longer trusts GE with investment capital, Buffet notwithstanding.
