WHERE IS THE 10,000 CHECK TO EVERY AMERICAN TAXPAYING CITIZEN SO THEY CAN TRY TO FIX THEIR LIVES, AFTER BEING UNDERREPRESENTED ON THE REGULAROTY SIDE BY OUR GOVERNMENT…

THR REGULATION TERMINATORS

De regulation and the repeal of the Depression Era legislation designed to protect and stabilize our markets led to this massive decline.

Thank Phil Gram & the Republican Party the Regulation Terminators

Take a moment and review:

 The Repeal of Glass Steagall by the Gramm-Leach-Bliley – Financial Services Modernization Act

&

Senate Bill 3283, also named the Commodity Futures Modernization Act of 2000.

Behind this Bill were, Republican Sen. Richard Lugar of Indiana, and now Phil Gramm was listed as one of the bill”s co-sponsors.  Still, as it had in the House, this bill was destined to go nowhere until, late one night, it was attached as a rider to an 11,000-page appropriations bill

And what did we get for all this Small government Free Market Madness

Great Depression #2 on the Horizon.

Know the facts People; make a smart decision with your vote,’

We the People do not need Phil Gramm in the next administration or anywhere near out Laws,

The White House Nor our Public Policy!

Economy Killer-Gramm & McCain

http://banking.senate.gov/prel99/1112gbl.htm

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glass-Steagall_Act

 The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act,

. This Act repealed the Glass-Steagall Act of 1933. One of the effects of the repeal was to allow commercial and investment banks to consolidate. Some economists have criticized the repeal of the Glass-Steagall Act as contributing to the 2007 subprime mortgage financial crisis.[8][9]

 The repeal enabled commercial lenders such as Citigroup, the largest U.S. bank by assets, to underwrite and trade instruments such as mortgage-backed securities and collateralized debt obligations and establish so-called structured investment vehicles, or SIVs, that bought those securities. Citigroup played a major part in the repeal. Then called Citicorp, the company merged with Travelers Insurance company the year before using loopholes in Glass-Steagall that allowed for temporary exemptions. With lobbying led by Roger Levy, the “finance, insurance and real estate industries together are regularly the largest campaign contributors and biggest spenders on lobbying of all business sectors [in 1999]. They laid out more than $200 million for lobbying in 1998, according to the Center for Responsive Politics…” These industries succeeded in their two decades long effort to repeal the act.[10]

Phil Gramm is now McCain’s chief advisor, McCain wants him to take the place of Paulson, Do we really want this Free Market Mad Man in control of our Economy.

Hasn’t he done enough damage

the Commodity Futures Modernization Act of 2000

the Commodity Futures Modernization Act of 2000

John McCain has no clue about the economy.  Economic fundamentals are economic fundamentals — which are actually statistical indicators like unemployment, inflation, and consumer confidence.
But I guess Phil Gramm did not explain this to him, because he wants to further de-regulate our industries as if, if we do not look, see or hear anything on the economy it will be all better due to Free Market benevolence, instead of greed and profiteering. that has corrupted our economy since the Gramm Enron Loop hole…look it up ..

George W. Bush Wins The War On Terror Through Clerical Revision

I want to curse so bad on this one but I will try to restrain and refrain.
People I watched the coverage from the moment it began on msnbc on that fateful day 9/11
we watched squawkbox at my job cause i was a stock trader at the time (pls do not beat me up about the station been a few years)
I saw as the 2nd plane hit and the host were saying that is a no fly zone how did they hit the towers, then BOOM, plane number two hit……..We know how that ended.
Lord Bless our fallen Citizens keep their families safe.
But what I vividly remember as well was that within it seems an 1 hour if not 30 minutes
Bin Laden’s face was on the screen and we were told he was the leader behind this tragedy
We then invaded Iraq because Bush said the act was state sponsored.
Yes they talked up WMD, but Americans only agreed becasue the President said this was the country that sponsored the attacks……..(lies?)
Now to have the White House come out and say that in anyway shape or from it was not Bin laden.
who did this, after all the soldiers who died, all our tax dollars wasted, our roads falling, all the families abandoned by our government
What the ………
they all need to go to JAIL, NOT A COUNTRY CLUB AND REAL  JAIL

Sarah Palin’s Charlie Gibson ABC Interview: Video And Transcript

Not ready is all I can say. And this choice speaks volumes about McCain’s Judgement in the face of crisis.
She was not vetted, it ws a gut decision by McCain made to distract the voters and the media so the issues would not be discussed. i am not even sure McCain made the final decision!
So here we are less than 60 days away from the election, not discussing issues still, though Obama has been trying to speak to the issues. He is being ignored on that front!
Remember we saw no coverage of his Discussion of Education, only a news cycle repeating the same bogus uproar about a non-issue.
Economy
Healthcare
Education
Foreign Policy
Social Security
Talk to me about these issues Please
Time is too short and this decisin is too important !

McCain Struggles On Trail Without Palin

Fire it up people, do not allow these polls to get you down, nor the smears. These guys have nothing but character assasination lies and deception to use.
Hit em with the issues and the facts and do not get sucked into their mudslinging. It is designed to get you off point and off the issues!
I had on the other day online, never could refute my facts, just kept posting lies, smears, deception and personal attacks, even attacked Michelle with baseless lies.
In the end, he told me get a life because my facts could not be refuted…….

Definition of conservative

con·ser·va·tism <img title=”popWin(‘/cgi-bin/audio.pl?conser05.wav=conservatism’) Listen to the pronunciation of conservatism” the principles and policies of a Conservative party Conservative party2 a: disposition in politics to preserve what is established b: a political philosophy based on tradition and social stability, stressing established institutions, and preferring gradual development to abrupt change; specifically : such a philosophy calling for lower taxes, limited government regulation of business and investing, a strong national defense, and individual financial responsibility for personal needs (as retirement income or health-care coverage)3: the tendency to prefer an existing or traditional situation to change

This is the RNC to a tee, they prefer weak govt and an overbearing business community.  Guess that is why McCain’s campaign advisor orchestrated the Enron loophole, for the benefit of business, he just did not consider the destruction of the retirement plans and dreams of tax paying citizens. it ws all about Free market Profit

Don’t believe the hype

McCain employs the top seven corporate lobbyist in his campaign in policy making posiions.

Notably Phil Graham

Orchestrator of the Enron loophole of de regulation of energy transactions.

This model was then adopted by our Housing, Banking, and Investment Markets. Yes my friends greatest symphony crush many families and lives and probably cost you your job of 20 years!

Tell how will he change things for working Americans for better or worse?

The choice is yours

And his top foreign policy advisor, was on the payroll as a lobbyist for the Country of Georgia all the way until May 15, 2008.

No wonder McCain was so mad at Russia
