Chris Dodd, concerned about foreclosures, but not HIS - he got a special rate from CountryWide Financial and so did Kent Conrad.  Where is the outrage?  The foreclosure he has reference to is those people the Democrats forced Fanny and Freddy to give mortgages to, people who couldn’t afford them and shouldn’t have been given them.  This is a result of ignoring Senators Dole and McCain’s efforts to curb these excesses by Fanny and Freddy.  Thanks a lot Democrats!  The fault lays on the doorsteps of the Democrats who were in Congress at that time, and unfortunately are still there.

Harry Reid said they didn’t cause this, but if, as they say, the truth will out.  It will eventually be recognized as their baby.  Too bad there is no DNA to out skulduggery, because Harry Reid, Chris Dodd, Barney Frank, and others would surely be condemned for this meltdown and the blame would go where it belongs.  The Democrats in power in this country during these last two years have been to blame for these consequences and also in the past when they wouldn’t allow oversight on Fanny and Freddy.  I will not allow a cover-up, as is now in progress, to blame this on any other actions, but the Democrats not allowing oversight and forcing mortgages to be given to people who shouldn’t have been given them has all happened because of their efforts to please their base which is based on “What can you give me?”.  This gimme generation, the base of the Democratic party, is the original welfare generation that was their original base.  This is the bane of the generations of Americans who built this country.

The continuing resolution to fund the government was also full of earmarks to the tune of over $6 billion, as usual.  What does this show as to the bailout of $700 billion?  Shows me that this bailout could be halved or less and would still accomplish what it is supposed to and wouldn’t give so much aid and comfort to the fat cats, and we all know who they are.  This $700 billion, causing so much controversy, let’s not forget, is the same amount as we send to foreign countries each year for oil, and some of those countries are funded by our dollars and they use this money to fund terrorists.  We all know what party has stopped our country’s efforts to become energy independent and we also know what party is ruled by the environmentalists and the dollars they contribute to the Democratic party.

To me, the United Nations and the environmentalists are of the same mind, and that is to undermine this country and have it become less than it is and subject to other countries interfering in our affairs.  Even some of this country’s parks are ruled by the United Nations.  To me, this is as bad as King George’s taxes that caused our revolution and the founding of this country.  The only cure for this is rescinding any controls in our country by the UN.  I am sure the founders of this Democracy would be astounded by the happenings of today and NOT proud of it.

Now, since October 1st will be the day that restrictions are removed from offshore drilling, the state legislatures of each state having coastal areas should pass a bill to allow drilling retaining one half of the royalties to go to the state and the other half to the federal government.  I think state’s rights should take precedence over the efforts of Harry Reid, Nancy Pelosi, and the Democratic party who keep us energy dependent on foreign countries for our energy.  In this bailout bill, there is money set aside for a felonious organization called ACORN, which is an arm of the Democratic party and has been convicted of fraud in voter registration.  It is sad to me that the Democratic party feels that it is necessary to steal votes to keep control of this country.  If this money stays in this bill and is allowed by the Republicans, then there is no hope for this country and we will no longer be a republic or a democracy.

Should Obama be elected, we will be over taxed and over ruled in many areas of freedom we now enjoy.  We will be well on our way to socialism and eventually to a Robin Hood economy with class warfare.  We didn’t get where we were by these programs.  Socialistic health care will be the order of the day and we will become like England and Canada and will no longer have the best care in the world with people coming here for care from other countries.  We will end up with elitists telling us what we can or cannot do, people from Martha’s Vineyard, Nantucket, Sacramento, Berkley, college and university professors, who now guide our young people to become mindless robots - elitists in New York, Connecticut, Massachusetts, Vermont, and in other elitist communities throughout the United States.

I wish to guide myself and I am sure that there are many like me who feel the same.  Our military will be decimated and our fate will become what Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has predicted.  Iraq will be abandoned and taken over by Iran and al-Qaeda.  Trade with other countries will be governed by people with no foresight, and our exports will dry up.  We will continue to pay BILLIONS for energy to other countries, and our balance of payments will be such that our country will be bankrupt.

I just learned today that money for ACORN was in this bill and it makes me wonder what other jewels the Democrats have put in there.  It is up to the Republicans to make sure that these types of thefts by the Democrats from the American people will be stopped.

The scariest thing I have heard from the way the Democrats are leading us to socialism is that they are attempting to take away the secret ballot from union members - or not union members.  If the Republicans don’t stop this, soon we will have no secret ballot for President and all other types of legislators - state, local, and federal.  Then we will be a dictatorship.  I don’t wish this for future generations.

I just said the scariest thing I have heard was the aforementioned, but now I have heard something FAR more scary. How about this: Sheriffs and prosecutors join the Obama campaign in Missouri - calling this movement the Truth Squad - I call it fascism!  Scares the hell out of me.  If he gets elected, will he also have the power of Hitler and use law enforcement in the vein of Hitler’s S.S. Troops?  No more FREE SPEECH.
