Why is this former Governor of Arizona, who for seven years resisted to make Martin Luther King's birthday a state holiday, even being considered as President of the USA? Even in the senate he fought not to make this day a national holiday. It took over seven years to convince him! No wonder it was a sea of white at the Repugnantcrat convention.
Why is this country even embracing the Republican party at all? They have been the party of the Ku Klux Klan since the roaring twenty's! Has that little bit of fact been forgotten in this country or what? If it wasn't for the Klan there would be no Republican party. Has this country turned their collective heads against everything the founding father's toiled for years and then try and destroy it all? I am appalled at the way they are hiding behind their brand of fascism and glorifying it in such a way as to make it mainstream. People wake up and smell the coffee will yah. Your white sheets are flapping in the breeze and you are following blindly into yet another disaster that will soon destroy everything this country was created for all because you are being lead blindly and without remorse or respect for your families and everything you have tried to create. Only for the 1% who wish to turn you into nothing but their sheep.
I am one who chooses not to procreate because of the lack of comfort and company of women. When they started dressing and acting like men I found it repulsive and counterproductive. I've gotten beyond it and find the comfort and company of other men to be more satisfying and gratifying!
All this is is a reminder that we occupy this planet by the will and grace of God. He obviously has had enough of the greed and callousness that has been going on in this country and is reminding us of his power. NO human or human creation can escape his wrath. We must abandon the callous preachers, money changers, etc., who teach derision and separation among humans, if we are to remain a viable species allowed to live on this planet. Scoring and remembering people's mistakes brought about by predatory lending and callous greed is as abhorrent a sin as murder, and is being punished as such.
I have been asking and asking this question and still no one seems to have an answer, what exactly is the American public being asked to bailout here? Are we being asked to purchase just the paper that the mortgages are written on, or, are we being asked to purchase the whole thing mortgage and property? Since, it is the greed of real estate agents commissions, mortgage brokers, banks, etc., unapologetic greed that caused all this in the first place. Also, if the government is purchasing all these foreclosed homes how in the world are they going to get rid of them? Is the government willing to take up to a 95 - 99% chunk off the assessed values of these homes that have been sitting for who knows how long? If we are being asked to just purchase the paper these mortgages are written on what happens to the inventory of homes? Does the bank and mortgage holders get to keep them and try to resell them, to add even more insult to injury by allowing them to just slink out from under a bunch of idiotic and self important decisions, to make even more profit to put in their pockets, laughing all the way to the bank?
I was doing the math yesterday, and, you know what all that money would do? If you remove the top ten percent of the earners in this country, it would give the rest of us almost half a million dollars a piece!!! I'll bet you any amount of money that would be spent a helluva lot more responsibly than giving it away to those top ten percent leeches who would only spend it on more multi-million dollar homes and their retirement plans. I can almost guaranty you the foreclosure problem would disappear over night and you would see a major shift in the economy by providing housing for every man woman and child in this country and it would provide everyone with a cushion for savings. WAKE UP PEOPLE!
Maybe the repugnantcrats have finally woken up and are setting up Mc Cain and Palin up to fail?
They're sick and tired of feeding the fat cats while they scrimp and try to put even a box of macaroni and cheese on the table for their families. It's really getting disgusting that these Wall Street pigs get fatter while Main Street goes hungry at night just because they think they are entitled to it. It's about time they got the wind knocked out of their sails and they come back to earth and see what their arrogant greed has cost this country.
1. A hockey mom as a possible/inevitable replacement? Not on my watch. From what I know of soccer/hockey mom's, I wouldn't trust them to run a lawnmower over dead grass.
2. I have yet to be able to sit through the first fifteen minuted of one of his speeches and have to change the channel because of all the lies and the gross distortions.
3. McCain knows he hasn't got a snowball in south Florida's chance of winning so he's now going to resort to whatever he can to make Senator Obama look bad, really bad form.
Accept your defeat and be a gentleman about it.
You're Out!
