All excited about 'being in charge of the senate', Palin is devising a loyalty test to see which senators need firing. Then she plans to hold job interviews for new senators in 'pro-American' parts of the country.

Can't wait to see this Obama feature. It's going to be great!
No, here is must see TV.
Look and listen for yourself. Hear Obama in his own words discusses his links to both ACORN and the mortgage meltdown, and praises bundling and securitizing mortgages by banks as a means to float loans to the poor and spread the risk world wide. Never mind the link commentators point of view, just listen to what Obama says in his own words. A picture is worth a thousand words. Maybe more in the case of Obama comments in the last half of the first youtube link.

http://www.newsweek.com/id/164732 from this web site. (oops!) stating that Freddie Mac was spending tax payer money to target Republicans in 2005 who were trying to regulate Fannie and Freddies fraud. Democrats were not targeted, as the were all in the tank with Fannie and Freddie to kill the regulations. Hear that, the article admits that Republicans were trying to regulate, and Democrats were trying to stop it from happening as a means to facilitate the Community Reinvestment Act.
In the months before the 2004 presidential election, a firm called Sproul & Associates launched voter registration drives in at least eight states, most of them swing states. The group--run by Nathan Sproul, former head of the Arizona Christian Coalition and the Arizona Republican Party--had been hired by the Republican National Committee.
Sproul got into a bit of trouble last fall when, in certain states, it came out that the firm was playing dirty tricks in order to suppress the Democratic vote: concealing their partisan agenda, tricking Democrats into registering as Republicans, surreptitiously re-registering Democrats and Independents as Republicans, and shredding Democratic registration forms.

Also google Mark Anthony Jacoby. What makes these cases truly alarming is that they are examples of true voter fraud and not just voter registration fraud.
Once again, McCain has it wrong. Obama is not running the program in prime time because he's "acting like the election is over." He running the program because he knows the election is not over and nothing can be taken fro granted.
While it is true that raising corporate taxes means either that the corporation must raise prices or cut costs, it does not necessarily mean jobs are lost. Furthermore, if the tax increases are balanced by a reduction of taxes on consumers, businesses benefit through increased consumerism. We call this the "trickle up" theory of economics. Since this is a consumer-driven economy, trickle up has a better chance of working than the obviously failed trickle down of the past 20 years
I feel that Obama is truly investing in America main street(not wall street) The Republicans are putting there money on Sarah Palin wardrobe while they should be investing in a speech or personal advisor for her to convey to answer to some of the questions asked that she has dodged by saying all come back to that or giving a shout out in the mist come on..Obama is the answer to the hell us hard working Americans are living.. Money well spent
Cindy McCain's Half-Sister: I'm Voting For Obama
Cindy McCain's half-sister tells Us Magazine that she won't help put her famous sibling in the White House:
"I'm not voting for McCain," Kathleen Hensley Portalski tells Us. "I have a different political standpoint.
"I'm voting for Obama," the Phoenix resident says. "I think his proposals to improve the country are more positive and I'm not a big war believer."
...
Portalski's son Nathan, an aerospace machinist, is also backing Obama.
"I wouldn't vote for John McCain if he was a Democrat," he tells Us. "I would not vote at all before I'd vote for him.
"I question whether Cindy is someone I'd want to see in the White House as first lady," he adds.

Why Republicans Are Endorsing Obama
by Ian M Fried
August 12th, 2008
As John McCain runs an increasingly negative, sarcastic campaign, some prominent Republicans are deciding that it would be better for the country if Barack Obama were the next President. This week alone a former Republican congressman and the Mayor of Alaska???s second largest city have made public their endorsement of Obama.

Nice 'sour grapes' there, Senator McCain. You've evidently forgotten how your encouragement of Obama to go overseas backfired on you. Hopefully this half-hour program will be one more nail in your political coffin.
As Senator Obama said in his convention acceptance speech, "Enough!"
McCain said if Barack wanted to run against George Bush he should have ran 4 years ago. It looks like he is running against Bush now....
John McCain's campaign has directed $175,000 to the firm of a Republican operative accused of massive voter registration fraud in several states.
According to campaign finance records, a joint committee of the McCain-Palin campaign, the RNC and the the California Republican Party, made a $175,000 payment to the group Lincoln Strategy in June for purposes of "registering voters." The managing partner of that firm is Nathan Sproul, a renowned GOP operative who has been investigated on multiple occasions for suppressing Democratic voter turnout, throwing away registration forms and even spearheading efforts to get Ralph Nader on ballots to hinder the Democratic ticket.
In a letter to the Justice Department last October, House Judiciary Committee Chairman John Conyers said that that Sproul's alleged activities "clearly suppress votes and violate the law."
That Sproul would come under the employment umbrella of the McCain campaign -- the Republican National Committee has also separately paid Lincoln Strategy at least $37,000 for voter registration efforts this cycle -- is not terribly surprising. Sproul, who has donated nearly $30,000 to McCain's campaign, has been in the good graces of GOP officials for the past decade despite charges of ethical and potentially legal wrongdoing.

Taxes:
-Those making between $250,000 and $400,000 annually will have less than $1,500 increase in their taxes. (These people are not complaining. Joe is not one of these people.)
-Those making more than $3 Million annually will pay only 23%.
This will PAY FOR the tax cuts given to the middle class.
This WILL NOT INCREASE THE DEFICIT!

McCain has a Santa Clause approach to tax cutting. He wants to make cuts, but has not identified how it will be paid for. This will never pass Congress.
McCAIN'S TAX PLAN (or slogan) WILL WILL INCREASE THE DEFICIT!
