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.

I wouldn't cry if food stamps restricted certain foods - I love it when I see them used for steaks and expensive treats....but it is not food alone that makes a person fat. 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?

Anita Dunn has a husband who's an attorney in a firm keeping BO's records from being public. LIke his passport? 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.

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.

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.

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

Must be a Liberal thing. Is that you Al or is it Jesse? Could be considered a racial slur by Contessa?

They tried to pawn off Palin as stupid, and they have this person reading a teleprompter?
 
Can you imagine the indignation if there were to have occurred on FoxNews or Rush Limbaugh or Glen Beck?
