The New Mainstream

Hear Obama and Clinton for yourself, in their own words with out the filter of someone else's opinion..

Bill Clinton says Democrats failure to allow Republicans to regulate Freddie and Fannie caused economic melt down.

so. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XsynspIqAoE

Obama in this video, addressing his community activist work and his work representing ACORN in litigation against the banks and relating to the Community Reinvestment Act, and addressing the failure of Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae as those actions relate to the destruction of our economy by causing the current real estate and subsequent financial crisis, states that, and I quote:

"Subprime lending started out as a good idea, helping Americans buy homes who previously could not afford to. Financial institutions created new financial instruments that could securitize these loans, slice them into finer and finer risk categories, and spread them out among investors and around the country, as well as around the world. In theory, this should have allowed mortgage lending to be less risky, and more diversified."

Acknowledging the catastrophe, but as apologist for the Democrats, Obama then offers this justification.

"The original idea was a good one, which was, lets see if we can distribute risk more broadly, and make it easier to provide loans to people who otherwise might not be able to get one."

Yah, great idea. Economically unsound, but embraced by Obama. Listen for yourself. You cannot dispute the mans on words recorded live:

And here is Obama again, stating

"And I think one of the tragedies of the civil rights movement was that the civil rights movement became so court-focused, I think there was a tendency to lose track of the political and organizing activities on the ground that are able to bring about the coalitions of power through which you bring about redistributive change, and in some ways we still suffer from that,"

And here is Obama again in December 2007, promising a role in formulating policy during his transition if elected, despite saying he has no ties to this organization, Acorn

And here is a link to C-SPAN video clips of the Congressional hearings at roughly the time McCains attempt at S.190. to fix Fannie and Freddie. See for yourself who said what.

obama has spent more then mccain on smear commericals remember cuba do your research.

peace and joy to all

we'll see just how much lying the democrats keep doing open up your eyes the media just want a change so they can keep there jobs at reporting hate just like the past we havent heard positive reporting since WWII

as for all you theres only one MESSIAH HIS NAME IS JESUS whether you believe or not is not going to change it. quit fighting like little children . start praying for HIS choice in this country.

It isn't yet perfect but there has been significant improvement, like now, when people see it is in there best interest to focus on reality and put the bias BS aside. In 2000, 2004 and over the last eight years we have been lied to consistently as the Bush-Cheney admin has boldly pursued their private agenda to benefit Special Interests and a select few and have given the majority of us only apathy, the costs and an abundance of subterfuge. They have done this aggressively with arrogance and without any conscience and today we can see the results in the significant and drastic problems we now have. Those few benefiting from this irresponsibility return both overt and covert support, campaign contributions and promised delayed compensation; George W Bush has even bragged he will quickly pass his father and Bill Clinton in wealth after he leaves office. We are now seeing the same dirty politics again from the McCain-Palin camp as they aggressively pursue another smear and scare campaign, without ever really addressing the issues, just depending on lies, exaggerations, far stretched accusations and guilt by association, which they offer by word-of-mouth, on websites and in their speeches. They ask us to believe their obviously twisted evaluations faulting and attacking Obama-Bidden and the Obama-Bidden solutions and then to just trust them, that they McCain and Palin know best what to do, as if everything is all about them. Common sense should convince us that tactic is simply a con and just more of the same style deception we have been misled by in the past. McCain???s history really has not been one with a lot of positive results and rather demonstrates someone who simply impulsively jumps to whatever position he feels favors him for political advantage. Palin, besides being grossly under-qualified, shows us an aggressive, self-focused, dishonest and ???cocky??? personality that lacks the diplomacy and others awareness to perform at the level required. In the mean time, Obama and Bidden have consistently, comparatively speaking, maintained a higher class presidential campaign with a concentration on the issues and in offering specifics of real solutions. Their solutions, and not McCain???s and Palin???s rationalized and critical interpretation of them, offer the needed real change to resolve the problems with a focus on the neglected middle-class, which means the economy and everyone benefits. If we don???t reject the total bull that McCain and Palin are offering and instead are once again deceived, because she is cute or he is a war hero or we lean Republican or because we have conservative concerns or whatever, then we can literally blame ourselves as being co-responsible when we end up with just ???more of the same???. In the end, it is up to us!

theres only ONE MESSIAH all the rest are fakes whether you believe it or not you either serve CHRIST or satan .

Finally - someone tells the truth. Every time I heard those phony liberals saying how Obama's supporters were highly educated, etc., but that Clinton's were southern segregationists, I would respond by highlighting that the most segregated parts of the country are blue-state urban areas: the bluest of the blue! But for that, liberals were angered and closed down discourse. Great. So much for being progressive. All they really want is symbolic change anyway. Worse yet, they are totally willing to accept Obama's "Trail of Broken Promises": http://dissentingjustice.blogspot.com/2008/11/trail-of-broken-promises-powerful.html

McCain said he will win no matter what? not sure what he means by that . but I think you are right. he has the power to make his win happen like Bush did

If the rightwing thinks that way they are not as strong as we thought? That means they are weak people who worked with him, smiled in his face and shaked hands with him almost everyday. Now they want to die. Sounds real crazy to me. McCain even talked about some Dems. in office. How can you talk about these people and after election day you need. I do not understand.

A victory by Barack Obama will prove once and for all that talent, ability, brain power, and drive are the qualities that it takes for success. There is no need whatsoever for quotas, set-asides, and race based or gender based preferences of any sort.

I have never heard of so much name calling. He did this and he did that and lets see what his greatgrand mother sister in- law did. come on people. if this was judgement day and God questioned us about what we did. who would not be the only person to have never done anything wrong or had a bad thought. The past is not always your future. FYI this comment has no color on it, it is for all people. I was a McCain supporter but if he talks about Obama like he does, what will he say about me. I changed my vote to Ralpd Nader. we do not need a President who cant respect his or her co-worker, smile in their face and cut at the end. We need hlp America, we need someone to fix the mess Bush is walking out on. It 'snot just about the war its about Health care , our seniors, our children, jobs.,housing and becoming one nation under God. We have people right now who have no place to live, killing each other.Fires everywhere, people losing their livies. We all need God more now then ever before. Just prayer for who ever becomes our next President.

Yes under McCain you will be required to wear the yellow star of David, if you are Jewish, some sort of feather thing if you are American Indian, a sombrero if you be Mexican, a rising sun head band if Japanese, and Male of Female medallions to signify your choice of partners.
However, under Obama, we will all hold hands each day, sing praise to our new Messiah, and if all is well all Republicans will convert to Democrats.
