John ?Effing? Kerry on the Bailout (VIDEO)

September 29th, 2008 at 8:53 pm » Comments Off

Tonight on Bill O’Reilly, John Kerry was on to discuss the bailout bill that failed today. John Kerry had the BALLS to suggest that he had been calling for regulation of Fannie & Freddie since 2004! Where is John Kerry in this exchange? You have GOT to be kidding me! Approximately 20 million listeners heard [...]



Pelosi & Gang Explain Their Proposal (VIDEO)

September 28th, 2008 at 6:56 pm » Comments Off

Just a few moments ago, Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid, Barney Frank and Chris Dodd (all members of the Gang of Financial Failure), came out to speak about their response to the proposed bill by Secretary Paulson.

Here’s a portion of the appearance, which I transcribed myself:
As members of the Democrat party, it is our [...]

How Fannie Mae is Like Katrina

September 27th, 2008 at 11:47 pm » Comments Off

Listen. I’ve been reading up and watching all the coverage about this financial mess we’re in right now, and it really reminds me a whole lot of another tragic event that happened not too long ago: Katrina hitting New Orleans, Louisiana. The only difference between the two is the actual physical damage that took place [...]



W, Paulson, Reid, Pelosi, and Frank - Bailout and the End of Our Way of Life

September 27th, 2008 at 12:00 pm » Comments (1)

Cartoonist - Nate Beeler
This is what happens when others assume that because you belong to the same party as someone else, you must agree with everything that the other person thinks. George W. Bush is so on the wrong side of this one it isn’t funny. He is willing to introduce the largest injection of [...]



Obama and the Financial Collapse

September 27th, 2008 at 12:20 am » Comments (0)

Barry O and his Democrat friends on the hill would have you believe that the Bush Administration is responsible for the current mess that they are attempting to buy our way out of. Buy that is with taxpayers’ money. These are the same people who collected donations from the very institutions which created this mess.
I’ve [...]

Misleading Pickens Ad

September 26th, 2008 at 10:58 pm » Comments (0)

For weeks now I’ve been meaning to pounce on an ad being run by the born again oil man turn eco-opportunist T. Boone Pickens. Pickens is claiming that Iran is switching over their vehicle fuel to clean burning natural gas as if it were a decision based on saving energy. The reason why the oil [...]



What Caused Our Economic Crisis? A MUST See! (VIDEO)

September 26th, 2008 at 4:19 pm » Comments Off

I’ve posted about this before, but someone shared a link with me today that really rocked my world. This video, even though it is almost 10 minutes long, really needs to be watched. It’s a very well compiled piece about the genesis of our current crisis. Check it out and PLEASE share this with all [...]



‘Bailout’ - ‘Investment’, Tomato - Tomahto, I’d like to Call the Whole Thing Off

September 26th, 2008 at 2:54 am » Comments (0)

To this point, I’ve remained out of the discussion about the legislation being put forth by those over-paid stuffed shirts that we elect to represent our wishes in Washington that is aimed at curbing the negative effects on the economy caused by the corruption within the sub-prime mortgage industry. The problem that we as a [...]



Ann Coulter & Pat Caddell on H&C (VIDEO)

September 25th, 2008 at 10:47 pm » Comments Off

Tonight on H&C, Ann Coulter and Pat Caddell were on to discuss this sham bailout that’s looming, as well as the impact on the respective Obama & McCain camps. I find it hard to believe that Pat is a Democrat, because even he sees how important and significant it was for McCain to do what [...]



John Stossel on Socialism and Our Economy (VIDEO)

September 25th, 2008 at 9:25 pm » Comments Off

John Stossel, almost always the voice of reason, was on Bill O’Reilly tonight and really laid it out as to what’s going on with this bailout and economic crisis. Like the rest of us, including Cavuto, Stossel realizes that while Capitalism is not always perfect, it sure beats the hell out of complete socialism, which [...]



Cavuto On the Economic Bailout (VIDEO)

September 25th, 2008 at 8:30 pm » Comments Off

Neil Cavuto was on Studio B tonight with Shepard Smith and, in my opinion, was a voice of reason in this time of economic panic. I think more people should listen to folks like Cavuto and other business folks who know that rash decisions are just that - rash.

My favorite quote from Neil [...]



Hypocrisy At Its Finest

September 25th, 2008 at 7:37 pm » Comments Off

My favorite editorial cartoonist, Michael Ramirez of Investor’s Business Daily really sums up what’s really going on. Unfortunately the MSM won’t tell you the truth about why we are in this crisis, but Fox is…and that’s one more reason why the leftwing kooks hate Fox so bad. From Michael Ramirez today:

Chris Dodd is the [...]



Obama Sees No Need to Suspend Debate Question is Why?

September 25th, 2008 at 3:47 pm » Comments (2)

Republican Presidential Nominee John McCain announced Wednesday that he was suspending his campaign beginning today as he returns to Washington so that he can do the job that he was elected to do. This suspension of his campaign is said to include postponement of his debate with Democrat Nominee Barry Obama if needed. Obama said [...]



Is Biden Out? The Thomas Eagleton Affair Part II

September 25th, 2008 at 1:33 am » Comments (0)

Internet rumors abound with stories of Big Mouth Joe’s impending departure from the Obama campaign soon after the Vice Presidential debate with Gov. Sarah Palin. Part of this I think is wishful thinking on the part of Hillary backers who are clinging to the hope that she’ll be named as Big Mouth Joe’s replacement. The [...]



Pres. Bush Speaks on Economic Crisis (VIDEO)

September 24th, 2008 at 9:33 pm » Comments Off

Tonight, President Bush came out and spoke about the current financial crisis we are facing. I don’t know if he has the answers, I don’t know if pundits have the answers, but the one thing I know (and I am not an economist) is that I do not believe that we should be bailing out [...]



Shooting in Finland

September 24th, 2008 at 6:26 am » Comments Off

I’ll keep this brief…it’s all been said before anyway.
Gun free zone = shooting gallery.
School = gun free zone = shooting gallery.
Cops had chance to take gun off him, they blew it.
Their fuckup, and ten people died.
No rant today, pray for the families, pray for those who have died….we all know there will be more shootings [...]
