Replying to: steve_ (Oct 21, 2009 8:21 am) Barry was a state senator for 7 years for his Chicago District. He beat out Alice Palmer a Civil Rights hero, by very shady election dealings. He has been a Chicago thug from the moment he drove his Honda into town. Not sure when he decided owning an American car would look better. The only reason he got tied up with Rev Wright is the ladies where he was spreading his talents bugged him about his church affiliation. And yes many churches get infiltrated by his kind of sleazy politician. PS If there was any reasonable way to get out of CA headed NE without going through Vegas, I would take it. Although it was smooth sailing. Never went below 65 MPH From the NV border till I stopped for the night in Mesquite.

Replying to: gagrice (Oct 21, 2009 11:17 am) was a state senator - right, not much to do with the day to day running of a city. Replies to this message: gagrice (Oct 21, 2009 11:42 am) imidazol97 (Oct 21, 2009 5:53 pm)

Replying to: steve_ (Oct 21, 2009 11:23 am) His district in Chicago should have been the beneficiary of his efforts at the state level. The very long story of his career last year in the Chicago paper was not flattering. He was only using the time in the state senate to promote himself up the ladder. Just as he is now campaigning for higher office. That being King of the World. Replies to this message: imidazol97 (Oct 21, 2009 5:53 pm)

"Sen. Orrin Hatch is asking President Barack Obama to launch a Justice Department investigation into college football's Bowl Championship Series over antitrust laws." Utah senator urges Obama to investigate BCS (KTVB) As usual, follow the money.

The rich aren't immune, rich males anyway. Gramm doesn't have much experience with people, it seems. Raines certainly holds guilt...maybe the GOP will pursue him as soon as Gramm is pursued. Maybe knowing people in the right places keeps you free. And of course, Raines couldn't have gotten away with it without Gramm. It's also debatable how much of a true financial advisor he is. Along with that, Bernanke, Paulson...all guilty. Clinton wouldn't have been able to veto that destructive junk anyway, would he? And it was under a GOP-dominated congress, right?

Like his college records--was he a foreign student? And yes, even his birth certificate. Everybody is welcome to see mine. My records are public. Why not BO's. He spent $1,352,378.95 to avoid letting the public see those records. Pretty expensive records!!! For $1,352,378.95 I'll even make xerox copies of my records!!! Also during the 2008 presidential campaign, Bauer as counsel for the Obama campaign wrote letters to television station managers and to Department of Justice Assistant Attorney General John Keeney arguing that airing an anti-Obama ad pointing to the known association between Obama and Weather Underground radical Bill Ayers would violate federal election rules. All those who felt BO's association with Bill Ayers meant nothing in terms of what he would do... are wrong. He's got the wildest bunch of liberals and socialists around him.

Replying to: fintail (Oct 21, 2009 5:53 pm) The GOP did not have a veto proof majority in Congress as the Democrats currently have. Without a lot of Democrat votes the Gramm bill would not have passed. The Democrats voted 138 for and 69 against the bill. It had wide bipartisan support. Much like the war in Iraq. I don't see where Gramm is given all the credit for the bill. I don't see where the bill caused people to borrow money they could never pay back. Borrowing money and not paying it back is stealing. Maybe we need a debtors prison. Replies to this message: steve_ (Oct 21, 2009 9:05 pm) gagrice (Oct 22, 2009 5:21 am) fintail (Oct 22, 2009 7:47 am) and 1 more... fintail (Oct 22, 2009 7:50 am)

Replying to: gagrice (Oct 21, 2009 8:20 pm) There are two independents in the Senate so technically the Dems don't have a veto-proof majority either. If push came to shove, Snowe would likely cancel out Lieberman and keep POTUS happy. The socialist, Bernie Sanders, gets Dem committee seats in exchange for agreeing to vote with the Democrats on all procedural matters. He almost always votes with the Democrats. Almost. File under strange bedfellows. Replies to this message: gagrice (Oct 22, 2009 5:21 am) fintail (Oct 22, 2009 7:47 am) gagrice (Oct 22, 2009 3:59 pm)

Oil up on lower demand and higher reserves due to dollar demise.

Replying to: steve_ (Oct 21, 2009 9:05 pm) All together it gives Barry the perfect opportunity to push through his agenda. Yet it is foundering as we speak. The reason: he does not have a clear picture in his mind of what his agenda really is. Second he is a poor communicator without the puppeteer hand moving his mouth (teleprompter). By contrast Reagan was able to move a solid Democrat Congress to get what he wanted. And he went into the WH with a clear picture of what it would take to clean up the horrible mess Carter left for him. Reagan cleaned up the mess and we had several years of relative peace and prosperity. MSNBC has foot in mouth again: In the past week, both Chris Matthews and Keith Olbermann have rolled out the Willie Horton ad, claiming that it marked the beginning of vicious personal attacks in politics, as opposed to what it was: The most devastatingly relevant campaign commercial in all of American history. You can always astonish college kids by telling them the true story of Willie Horton. Among the jaw-dropping facts are: The Rest of the story Replies to this message: fintail (Oct 22, 2009 7:47 am) gagrice (Oct 22, 2009 3:59 pm)
