This bailout just extends the agony. Let the markets suffer, and to purge ALL those malinvestment.

 

41 University of Chicago economists, including 2 Nobel Laureates sign the letter saying the bailout is a bad idea. This list is a joke the Senate version takes a bad idea and hangs a bunch of sweeteners on it to try to pick up votes. HUH? Taxpayers should not carry the burden of other people’s irresponsible decision to make debts they cannot pay.

 

Any bailout that includes paying for people defaulting on their mortgages is unacceptable.
The people of the United States have no obligation to save those who made debts irresponsibly.

 

       Oh great, now they attached tax cuts to the bill in an effort to get it passed. They think the way to pay for a 700 billion dollar bailout is through tax cuts? It merely adds insult to injury. The bailout flies in the face of the fundamental principals that built this economy. We should let the market work! Oh Well, So mad have a headache now. Gotta jet and cover that bad check with another!

The balance of power is shifting to the East as China and India.

It is easy to dismiss such dreams as bubble-economy hubris -- until you take into account the audacious goals Shanghai already has achieved. Since 1990, when the city still seemed caught in a socialist time warp

Here, Indians are playing invaluable roles in the global innovation chain. Motorola, Hewlett-Packard Cisco Systems and other tech giants now rely on their Indian teams to devise software platforms and dazzling multimedia features for next-generation devices.

China and India. Still relatively poor nations been watched with such a mixture of awe, opportunism. The postwar era witnessed economic miracles in Japan and South Korea. But neither was populous enough to power worldwide growth or change the game in a complete spectrum of industries. China and India, by contrast, possess the weight and dynamism to transform the 21st-century global economy. The closest parallel to their emergence is the saga of 19th-century America, a huge continental economy with a young, driven workforce that grabbed the lead in agriculture, apparel, and the high technologies of the era, such as steam engines, the telegraph, and electric lights.

But in a way, even America's rise falls short in comparison to what's happening now.

In the coming decades, China and India will disrupt workforces, industries, companies, and markets in ways that we can barely begin to imagine. The upheaval will test America's commitment to the global trade system, and shake its confidence. In the 19th century, Europe went through a similar trauma when it realized a new giant -- the U.S. -- had arrived. "It is up to America to manage its own expectation of China and India as either a threat or opportunity.  It’s been said that America should be as open-minded as Europe was 100 years ago." How these Asian giants integrate with the rest of the world will largely shape the 21st-century global economy.

I’ve seen this day coming for a long time America stepping down, a country that grew strong with the dreams of Americans, Capitalism the social system which now exists in all countries of the world. Under this system, the means for producing and distributing goods (the land, factories, technology, transport system etc) are owned by a small minority of people. Has our Government for years desired the controll of all America stands for? I believe this was decided and planned as far back as planed 30 years ago, and has come forward with 911.

Capitalism = free market ,I feel we’ve lost that , and we now will have A World Socialist Movement  which  consists of people who have organized themselves democratically with one objective: to bring about a complete change in world society. A call for socialism? Can we stop this bailout? What does this bailout mean? Do we vote for socialism, or do we hang strong and vote for someone who thinks the bailout a bad idea? Do we even have a choice? Knowing if we do not bail out we will see hardships that none have ever seen? The years to come I think you will see us move to a new economy , a World Socialist, movement a step back from the Great country we were. If you do nothing more you must say no to this bailout you must be heard, Government is just buying time with this bailout for themselvese,our economy will get worse.

If this bill passes then welcome to the United States of Socialism. If you’re not ready to be heard then you should be. Keep calling writing and E-mailing you disgust of Washington.

What do you know, another taxpayer “bailout” of failing corrupt business. How much do you and your great great and so on grandchildren owe? Last heard I believe it was 800 Billion dollars. At what interest are these loans?

Remember the savings and loan bailouts in 1989 and the political corruption associated with their failure, Sen. John McCain and some Bush family members included. I do.  Failure to enforce laws, rules and regulations has come with a price. What happens is taxpayers get hit twice , paying first for enforcement services we don’t get and, second, paying for propping up the gutted businesses and taking over their obligations when they get in trouble — as they always do. 

 This is nothing but socialism for a small minority the rich.

We have had eight years of idiotic GOP rule, and eight years of idiotic Democrats refusing to do much of anything about what has led us to a crumbling economy.

Barack Obama’s comment on Tuesday that “You can put lipstick on a pig. It's still a pig.” He did not! And then he appears on national news and turns it on the republicans. So what was his point?????? Can someone clarify? Unbelievable!!  

 

 

 

Chris Wallace puts David Axelrod on the hot seat  on Fox News to ask Barack Obama’s chief strategist to provide evidence of Obama’s post-partisanship.  Axelrod sputters about a few co-sponsored bills that passed by unanimous consent, but fails to come up with any evidence at all.  Instead, he comes up with a strange new smear about Sarah Palin:

 Let’s not forget Obama’s own words this smear has to stop we have more important issues, the fist positive thing out of Obama’s mouth. Yes Obama focus on the issues its apparent comedy is not your forte.

I’m sick of paying for corporate mismanagement and abuses.

 

I’m afraid that the Fannie-Freddie rescue effort will make more bailouts inevitable by sending a message that some institutions are too big to fail and thus encouraging risky behavior it’s pathetic to watch the United States financial system, supposedly the envy of the world, being taken to its knees.  

  But that's we're seeing, brought to you by regulators, and greedy bank executives and incompetent corporate directors. Both companies were placed into a government conservatorship that will be run by the Federal Housing Finance Agency, the new agency created by Congress this summer to regulate Fannie and Freddie.

  We as Taxpayers shouldn’t to be left holding defaulted mortgages while executives who presided over balance sheet implosions walked away with millions. Knowledgeable analysts sent a message that it is time for Fannie and Freddie to go. Meanwhile, Fannie Mae has reshuffled its management.  

   I don’t understand much how it all works and I’m sure if the majority of the public did understand the public would want heads to fly but for now we can just be assured that there is a safety pin holding things together and tomorrow is another day.

Sen. Barack Obama’s foes seized Sunday upon a brief slip of the tongue, when the Democratic presidential nominee was outlining his Christianity but accidentally said, "My Muslim faith." What is that about?

 Or when he said he’s going to campaign in 57 States turns out there are 57 Islamic states, And what’s up with a presidential candidate not knowing how many states there are? He is not smarter than a fifth grader.

( RED FLAGS all around this man.) And how about Obama's five-point plan to repair America's image in the world, including doubling our foreign aid to $50 billion and surrendering in Iraq to generate good will for America in the Middle East?

 

This one really gets to me,

 

Obama said I actually always thought of the military as an ennobling and, you know, honourable option. But keep in mind that I graduated in 1979. The Vietnam War had come to an end. We weren't engaged in an active military conflict at that point. And so, it's not an option that I ever decided to pursue." HUH!

 

All male American citizens are legally required to register for Selective Service within 30 days of their 18th birthday.

 

Anti-American what do you think? Messiah? What the @#$%, not hardly but the Dems. are so focused on his charm that his abuses of Anti- Americanism are over looked. Oh yes vote for Obama and you will get your changes.

Media marketing, how does it affect your life and the decisions you make? Maybe you received that text from Obama on his choice for V.P, or maybe you depend on internet, local, or national news to get your information. I think what surprises me is the amount of mass marketing that goes into politics.

I think it’s great that we have these avenues of information to help us in our everyday lives, this way we can keep on top of what’s happening 24/7. What bothers me though is that through Media.Polticians Democrats and republicans have learned to perfect the techniques of media manipulation.

      For example Bill Clinton survived a personal scandal by vilifying the messenger-the reporters who in covered his sexual affair while in office. George W. Bush took the nation to war in Iraq with little public debate, thanks in part to a muzzled press. Lying is an art form in Washington. The pros call it spin. A better word for spin is propaganda. What is a lie? I have a simple definition. It is the product of any intent to deceive.

I feel this is how many politicians today are approaching media. They are not using social media tools to provide the public with more insight or better connection to government. Instead they are using these tools as a way to flash a smile and show the public how ‘new age’ their campaigns are. Politicians should only use social media to educate, not to sway votes. Like no time before politicians on every level have a chance to connect with the people they represent. I think they should take this opportunity to really reach the public, not just tell them how to vote.
