Obama Truth Squad

A shocking look into one of Obama's projects as a community organizer.

His vision for America?

With the present financial situation, which according to some non-partisan financial analysts was caused by the Bush administration’s blocking oversight or removing regulations on some financial institutions, it seems odd to me that McCain is still advocating more deregulation to fix the problem. While I am not a big fan of over-regulation by big brother, I think that some oversight is necessary. Another troubling aspect of the current situation is that the “Federal Reserve” (which is actually not part of the government) has decided to “bail out” AIG to the tune of $75 or $80 Billion – guess who will get the bill for that decision.

McCain’s financial solution is more of the same stuff that got us into this mess, which to my way of thinking is like grabbing the lit end of a match then doing it again to heal the burn it doesn’t make sense.

Obama’s plan, while admirable, is probably never going to see full implementation for a variety of reasons to numerous to list. The main obstacle though is probably old school political methods (neither party gets away blameless here).

Regardless of any facts, figures, idealistic dogma or other arguments people will vote as they see fit. The disturbing part of that point is that in this contentious election if the voter turn-out doubles, the bottom line will be that possibly 26% of the eligible voters will decide who gets stuck with Bush’s mess. If I wasn’t so afraid of what McCain could do to make things worse I might be tempted to screw him royally and let him have the job.

One final point on things that scare me about McCain, his service to the US in Viet Nam was admirable, even without the embellishments, but the fact remains that he spent five and a half years being tortured and abused as a POW. That would warp anyone’s thinking, I still have issues from Nam and I wasn’t a POW. But, one thing that I am sure of is, in McCain’s position in the Senate I would never vote to cut Veteran’s benefits and I sure as hell wouldn’t support the torture of enemy combatants regardless of whether they are in uniform or not. The information obtained has proven unreliable in most cases.

The current financial situation is the fault of both parties but the beginning of it goes way back. Barney Frank and his band of merry men, Chris Dodd and those sitting on the Banking Committee at the time of the Clinton administration started this ball rolling.

Truth is, John McCain warned the President and the current Banking Committee that AIG was heading for a wreck. (Over 2 years ago.)

Bottom line on that is some people need to go to jail. Some people in and out of Congress. Both sides. This mess did not have to happen but it did and few select people made a lot of money.

I keep telling you. Obamas plan is to get everybody but the elite living like the people in that video on the top of this page. Do some research on that project. Do some research about the other projects he was involved in and see who got what.

Whoever gets the job will have a full plate like all Presidents do. The solutions are not going to be easy. They never are. But I know that some of Obamas advisors are the same people that headed up some of the companies that are now going belly up and dragging everything down with them.

The problem with these votes that go on in Congress is when the original bill gets to the floor for a vote it is full of pork and garbage. That is why most vote against some bills that are otherwise good. Both sides do this. The solution is to vote on a bill as it stands. No adding anything. If a member of Congress wants to give  some business in their home state a few million, let it be a separate vote. McCain is going to expose these congress critters for what they are. I am sure of that.

Yes John McCain was a POW and Vietnam was a bitch. John McCain has never advocated torture.  I could speak on this, but it is a subject better left alone. I am not voting for him because he was a Vietnam Vet or because he was a POW. I am voting for him because he has seen the very worst and best in humanity and he understands that phrase " The only thing evil needs to triumph is for good men to do nothing." He is going to do something and he will have help along the way.
