Rothschild backs McCain

A top Hillary Rodham Clinton fundraiser threw her support behind Republican John McCain on Wednesday, saying he will lead the country in a centrist fashion and accusing the Democrats of becoming too extreme.

"I believe that Barack Obama, with MoveOn.org and Nancy Pelosi and Howard Dean, has taken the Democratic Party — and they will continue to — too far to the left," Lynn Forester de Rothschild said. "I'm not comfortable there."

I find this pretty intriguing.  Yet another big business owner realizes the peril that Obama and the far left Democrats represent.  If this trend continues will we see a landslide victory for McCain despite all the BS and dirt being drummed up on Palin by the slime merchants working for the Dems?

She (Rothschild) praised McCain for working with Democrats to pass legislation and for standing up to President Bush on the Iraq war.

"I just ask, who has Barack Obama ever stood up to? And that troubles me a lot," she said.

I would ask the same thing, what has Barack Hussein Obama ever stood up to? 

He didn't stand up for slum lords in Chicago when he was one of their lawyers.

He didn't stand up to Reverend Wright when he spewed his hate from the pulpit.

He didn't stand up and condemn William Ayers (one of his friends) who is a known terrorist.

He didn't stand up and condemn his wife's thesis which is a hate filled diatribe that promotes segregation and racism.


In mine, as well as other eyes, Barack Hussein Obama has done nothing other than posture and recite lines.  He really is an empty suit.

The left is no longer as smug as they were a month ago.  I've been saying all along, this election is going to be so lopsided that it may be the beginning of the revolution that lasor dreams about.

[Bodhi]

True, but they are doing their best to try and manufacture something to throw this election back into their court....

Sad that they manipulate people and things so badly.

[Hajo]

Bodhi....sad point is that there are people who can be manipulated.

Not all dems are mindless automatons nor are all republicans.
The best candidate will act on what is best for the country, not his or her party or what would benefit him or her the most.

The Pelosi's and howard dean types are all party and screw the rest regardless of the consequences people and need to be pushed from any position of power or influence as they are incapable of being non partisan in their decisions.

I agree, as I said before, it's disenheartening to see so many that fall for the same liberal crap again and again

You know, I was hoping that Obama would take it.  This would speed up the revolution, not put it off for another 4-8 years.


But with Obama picking Biden, and McCain picking Palin, McCain will spank Obama.  Scratch that, they ARE spanking Obama.

Obama and his team are panicking.  Full on 3 year old girl crying and flapping their arms panic.  If they do win, they will have run the most dirty / lying campaign in recent history.  If they do win, their credibility will be shot, and Republicans will take the election 2 years after, at least.

Yet another reason Obama may be looking at some hard times on the campaign trail.

Barack Obama's Fannie Mae/Freddie Mac Connection

Tuesday, September 16, 2008

By John Gibson

Lehman Brothers collapse is traced back to Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, the two big mortgage banks that got a federal bailout a few weeks ago.

Freddie and Fannie used huge lobbying budgets and political contributions to keep regulators off their backs.

A group called the Center for Responsive Politics keeps track of which politicians get Fannie and Freddie political contributions. The top three U.S. senators getting big Fannie and Freddie political bucks were Democrats and No. 2 is Sen. Barack Obama.

Now remember, he's only been in the Senate four years, but he still managed to grab the No. 2 spot ahead of John Kerry — decades in the Senate — and Chris Dodd, who is chairman of the Senate Banking Committee.

Fannie and Freddie have been creations of the congressional Democrats and the Clinton White House, designed to make mortgages available to more people and, as it turns out, some people who couldn't afford them.

Fannie and Freddie have also been places for big Washington Democrats to go to work in the semi-private sector and pocket millions. The Clinton administration's White House Budget Director Franklin Raines ran Fannie and collected $50 million. Jamie Gorelick — Clinton Justice Department official — worked for Fannie and took home $26 million. Big Democrat Jim Johnson, recently on Obama's VP search committee, has hauled in millions from his Fannie Mae CEO job.

Now remember: Obama's ads and stump speeches attack McCain and Republican policies for the current financial turmoil. It is demonstrably not Republican policy and worse, it appears the man attacking McCain — Sen. Obama — was at the head of the line when the piggies lined up at the Fannie and Freddie trough for campaign bucks.

Sen. Barack Obama: No. 2 on the Fannie/Freddie list of favored politicians after just four short years in the Senate.

Next time you see that ad, you might notice he fails to mention that part of the Fannie and Freddie problem.

Nice how all the liberals have decided not to comment on anything....  but, in fairness, they know we are right, and Obama is a lying empty suit.

I can fire up a crowd.

I can get a mic and get on stage and tell people what they want to hear.  (I've done it thousands of times, but never as a politician  )

But if I don't have the experience to pull it off, or if I don't have a plan in place, or all I am interested in is partisan rhetoric, or if I think I know everything already and aren't willing to seek out very experienced people to learn from, I am doomed to failure.

So would Barak Obama, but I do not firmly believe the American public wants someone with such little practical experience running the Executive Branch of their nation.

I vote for who will be the absolute best commander-in-chief to protect our nation from enemies--foreign & domestic FIRST (defence & foreign policy).  If a president can't be the cornerstone to defend his/her nation's people, then who is going to even care about the economy, education, energy, etc.

Ladies & gentlemen of the forum...I am 47 years old and this is the second time in my life I will cast a vote during wartime.

What is more importaint than having a strong experienced commander-in-chief in time of war?

And for the folks yapping on and on about Ron Paul--he's a decent guy, but face it---he did NOT get the nomination---by a longshot.  Face it, any vote for Ron Paul (no matter how well intentioned, because he doesn't have an ice cube's chance to win) is a vote for Barak Obama.  If you feel I am wrong, please read your history.  Every third party candidate handed the election away to someone else.

in 2006 McCain said to congress that fanny and freddy were in trouble and tried to get legislation to fix it but the democrats said there is no problem and did not act.

it is in the congressional record.

I'm sorry--that line was just plain idiotic.


Dude, I USED to think there was some sane logic in your posts...


You have gone off the deep end.


You go to "Pay No Mind" list.
