So we should print more money to make the Bush Admin look better?  Is that what we should do?? This is pretty insane this entire mess that Bush got us into.  This naked short selling not being regulated.  His administration has done everything it can to bring this into a socialized nation and anyone who defends him or even believes his admin should have their brains checked out at the very least for insanity.

The companies involved need to fall including all banks and mortgage companies involved.  The people who got us in this mess need to be fined and have all their positions taken away.  We should not be bailing out the families and/or the companies that lied to get us into this mess…. You can bet there were many taking advantage of the system.  I agree with the President of France on the fact that people need to be brought to justice over this but how can they when we do not even bring Bush and his cronies to justice over Iraq and the rest of the nations problems.

How about this.  In times like this you MUST come to terms and some people need to pay for their mistakes.   CEO’s need to loose their jobs, companies deserve to go bankrupt, and some foreclosures were meant to be if they were unacceptable in the first place.   But… How about we accept the plan.  Even though they are using the same fear tactics as 9-11 and it all seems like a re-run of printing more American Dollars that are not even worth anything now because after all we are a board game right?

So here’s my compromise
Let’s accept the plan only if we get rid of Bush and Cheney and get Nancy Pelosi as President.  Congress and the House need to stand up to this Administration.  They need to quit being pigs waiting to be slaughtered and stand up for themselves and impeach these shady CEO’s of America.  Fire Paulson, Cox all of them. If were going to War War War and Print Print Print then lets do it the right way.

Other nations would stop laughing at the US and start taking us serious and maybe give us the loans that we need.  No more dumb and dumber running this country.

Someone left this on a blog I read often:

I am so tired of hearing everyone blaming the corporations and not the people who are in foreclosure.Think about it. These people were able to buy new homes at 100% financing. But they didn’t stop there, no, they went and bought brand new appliances, furniture, cars, all on credit,and the minute they got a tiny bit of equity built up, they refinanced their house to pay it all off. Which actually made sense at the time. But then they did it again, they used their house as a credit card. And once again, they were bailed out by refi’ing their house. And then,wait for it, they did it again! Except the 3rd and 4th time around they couldn’t be bailed out with a new mortgage. They already owed too much on their house. So they go late on their mortgage, credit cards, car payments etc, the interest rates get out of hand, they can’t catch up and now that’s our problem? I don’t think so. You rarely see someone in foreclosure that has equity and didn’t use their house as a credit card. EVERYONE needs to take responsibly for the state the country is in, especially the individual. So yeah, let’s not back the banks and see how fast we go into a depression. Good thinking general public.

I used to love politics but this election just makes me sad. So many lies especially from the republicans who just make the truth an illusion of their own. I have not donated to the Obama campaign because I wanted Hillary but I will vote for him this fall. McCain is a hero of this nation but he has turned into a monster from what I have seen with Palin and their talking points stretching the truth. IMO, Palin is the scariest threat to America since Osama Bin Laden. She has already taken advantage of her power in Alaska and who knows what else she will do. She seems like an extreme evangelical.

Hillary did a great interview on GMA. I am sure Obama will be smart enough to put Hillary somewhere as a cabinet member and he would ask for Bill/Hills advice before making any decisions. =)

I also just love Joe Biden. I watched every single debate early in this process including the republican debates. I loved watching Biden and Clinton in the Dem debates. I would rather have a Hillary/Biden ticket but I guess I will take what I can get in this election. I guess it does not matter anyway because if its anything like the one with Gore/Bush and Kerry/Bush then its all going to be given to the R side anyway out of … fraudulent voting machines and votes that do not count. lol.

Four more years of this Karl Rove mentality is just not good. And they may not be Bush directly but they are Karl Rove all over again.  And when I see headlines like this “Palin’s advisers are veterans of Bush White House, campaign”  I mean come on are American voters going to be so dumb as to vote for Bush and Karl Rove another 4 or 8 years.
This is what I sent to someone who is an ex-Hillary supporter online:

Have you been seeing all the lies that the Palin-McCain campaign has put out? I know you were a Hillary supporter like me but how could you vote for someone who lies, lies, and bullies. Its a vote more years of cronyism we have dealt with the Bush years. I know I cant change your mind it seems made up but think about it. I do not want higher taxes I make well over 200k but I am not voting for the Karl Rove camp. I know Hillary would not want that either.

Ex-Hillary (Now McCain/Palin Supporter) Reply:

I have declared my independence from both political parties. Ideologically, I consider myself left of the middle, but that doesn’t mean I’m going to vote for the Democratic candidate. I know that Mr. Obama is a very inspiring individual and he deserves to be commended for that, but I’m looking for more than platitudes in a presidential candidate. John McCain has a proven track record of reaching across the aisle and getting significant, bipartisan legislation passed (i.e. BCRA). He’s gone against his own party and has always put his country before politics, and I admire that about him. He stood up for the surge in Iraq even when it wasn’t popular and to his credit, the surge has worked. I don’t agree with war, but I agree with McCain when he says that he wants to bring the troops home with valor and honor. Our troops know they have a mission to accomplish, whether you agree or disagree with that mission is another subject, and I know that our men and women in uniform want victory. I do agree with Mr. Obama and believe that we need a new strategy in Iraq and we need to focus more of our attention on Afghanistan. When it comes to national security though, I trust McCain more as commander in chief since he has served his country proudly in the military and has more experience in that department. This argument that the Democrats keep making about how McCain is a third Bush term is not going to work. Poll after poll shows that a majority of Americans, Republicans and Democrats and independents alike, do not believe that McCain and Bush are alike. As for your argument about cronyism, both parties are corrupt. It’s not just the Republicans, but Democrats have their black sheep as well (the Mayor of Detroit, that congressman from Louisiana who got caught with money in his freezer or something, John Edwards). They both have their bad apples.

Furthermore, I am just hesitant about having Obama as our president. My candidate, Hillary, made the case during the primaries that Obama is not experienced or ready to be president. She proved during the course of her campaign why she was ready, and although she has fully come out in support of Obama, she has yet to say that he is ready and experienced. If she hasn’t said it by now, she’s either not going to say it or if she does say it, we know that she won’t mean it. There is just too much on the line during this election, and although ideologically I disagree on most of McCain’s politics, I think he has the experience, insight, and wisdom to be a better leader and president. As his wonderful running mate Gov. Sarah Palin said in her vice presidential acceptance speech, “Some candidates use change to promote their careers, but other candidates use their careers to promote change.” (Or something like that). Instead of demonizing each other because we belong to a different party or have a different ideology, as Americans we need to come together and reach common ground on every issue from health care and education to the economy and taxes. The American people demand and deserve a government that works for them, not against them. In my opinion, John McCain will be the kind of president who we can depend on, in good times and in bad times.
