Wasn’t TARP supposed to be used to buy up bad loans on homes to save the banks?
Isn’t it still true that all of us taxpayers are still on the hook for more than $400 million for the bailout of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac?
Just who decided the Federal Government should be in the home mortgage business anyway?
And who thought it was a good idea to put a private bank (The Federal Reserve) in charge of our economy?
Why did this Federal Reserve keep interests rates so low when the housing bubble continued to grow?
Obama likes to blame republicans and Bush but wasn’t he pushing for low interests rates so “poor people” could afford new homes through his connections at ACORN?
Acorn the community organization that forced our government to loan to people that could not afford a home. ACORN that told a pimp and a prostitute how to get more money from our government and how to claim child prostitutes as “dependants” for tax purposes.
If the stimulus money was supposed to stimulate private sector jobs, why is 90% of the money being spent everywhere but the private sector?
When government bailed out Chrysler and GM, it didn’t bailout the owners of these companies or the bond holders and the people that made it possible for these companies to exist, it bailed out the UAW.
Why is it that the stimulus money that went to the states went to pay union pensions and benefits and to save public union jobs?
Why did Obama give billions to Mexico and Brazil for further off-shore drilling off their coasts when he won’t allow it here? Does he think that a spill off the Mexican or South American border won’t do any damage here?
Why is it that Obama and his cronies continue to push us towards a socialistic state when socialist countries like Greece, France, Russia, Great Brittan and now even China have moved to free market capitalism to expand and benefit their economical system like no other plan can?
We also know that the Democrats are not solely to blame for this. We will remove the rest of those who follow the self righteous path to wealth at the taxpayers’ expense in 2012.
We are slowly working towards a libertarian style of government, just as the democrats slowly moved towards Marxism.
All you politicians’ are on notice. If you vote to increase spending or the size of government, you should probably start looking for a new line of work.

Free Speech
Why do liberals want to silence talk radio? Mainly because the truth hurts.
Liberal talk radio has never worked. The reason is because there is no substance to their reasoning; it’s all emotions. As was pointed out by Rick Santorum on the Bill Bennett Show, “When conservatives in the house give a lecture or speech on a bill they support, they show charts and graphs to indicate how this plan will work and why”. When a liberal gets up, it’s with pictures and stories of a person suffering”
They never give a solid reason of how the plan will work, what the true cost will be or what effect it will have on the future of our economy and country.
Let’s take the health care bill. Originally, the reason to pass this bill was to cover the uninsured and to reduce costs. John Dingell brought in a woman; Marcia Boehm in a wheelchair from New Jersey to help him sell this plan at a Town Hall meeting in Romulus, Mi in August of 2009. Costs were of no concern to Dingell, destroying the health care of 85% to satisfy the 15% made sense to him. All emotions and no facts.
Consider the outrageous quotes by Florida Rep. Alan Grayson; “We’re dealing with people on the other side who are utterly unscrupulous. These are foot-dragging -- knuckle dragging Neanderthals who known nothing but the word no” Again, emotions, no facts. More of this scholars quotes can be read here
We have to look at what the future holds for this country in the direction the present administration is taking us and we have great examples happening right now in Greece and Great Britain, They are rioting in the streets in Greece because the socialist government has spent every bodies money and now to get the country out of bankruptcy, they must make cut-backs. What a concept! Why didn’t they think of that before they went belly-up?
The same thing has happened in Great Britain. The working class are fed up with paying enormous amounts of taxes to support those that don’t. It has gotten to the point in these countries that if the government takes any more money in taxes, the people will not be able to pay mortgages, rent or automotive loans.
This is the direction that Obama and the democrats are trying to lead us. They think because they can pull it off because they are “smarter” than those in these other countries.
Far be it from me to question a leader that has no experience running a business, has never held a real job in the private sector, and whose main skill set seems to be that of a radical community organizer hell-bent on destroying the capitalist system that provided him the most opportunities and the best possible education in the world.
If it were not for talk radio and conservative news outlets, most of this information would be buried in the state-run media. Free speech must remain free in order for this republic to stand tall.

Senate Investigative Committee
I received and email from Sen. Carl Levin (D-Mi) informing me of a committee he is forming to investigate the financial crisis. What a joke!
This is like the coyote guarding the hen house!
It was Barney Frank’s committee that was charged to over-see the banking and financial markets but they fell asleep as the contributions to their campaign funds kept growing with donations from Fannie and Freddie.
It was the democratic members of congress that let this happen. They made the rules to allow this to come about and now they want to “investigate” it? Give me a break.
Financial institutions bought huge packages of loans from Freddie and Fannie because the American taxpayer through the federal government insured them, but the democrats let Fannie and Freddie cheat so that the bad loans spread like cancer in our system.
The democrats lied, covered up and killed legislation to protect Freddie and Fannie; their cash cow. McCain, Bush and the republicans tried to stop it over and over again. Bush asked 15 times alone in his last year about the problems at Freddie and Fannie. Maxine Waters and Barney Frank denied any wrong doing all the while knowing that Franklin Raines was criminally cooking the books to line his pockets with millions in bonuses.
This “committee” set up by Sen. Levin is just another bit of political posturing trying to make up some ground from their move against our Constitution and against the will of the people by passing a health care bill that they knew we did not want.
These people have been forthright it telling us that the Constitution meant nothing to them, that they had no concerns over it when writing and passing laws that the Constitution gave them no powers to do.
If Sen. Levin is truly serious about this, lets set up a committee of citizens to investigate this crime against the American people and let the chips fall where they may.
