“Most blacks believe all blacks are African”

Surprisingly, I’ve been told by someone bi-racial, that is true. I’ve also been told..... “just wait until he pi**es them off, he’ll become ‘white’ over night”.

“So maybe someone could explain to me why Bush and Paulson gave away our money to these guys.:’

I can’t. But I have noticed how often the Libs/Dems have enjoyed throwing it back in our faces....careful who you call THE socialist.

“These institutions were getting money before Barry was elected and in any position to help them.

Sorry but I am not seeing the connection. The last several months’ stink is Bush’s legacy.”

I agree. Money has no bias. Had McCain won, I’ll bet his coffers and receptions would have been full of the same elites and worse.

So, we know what BO’s inauguration cost in $’s. Someone needs to hit him where it hurts...figure out, from a - z, what the whole ordeal’s, including attendees, “carbon footprint” cost.

They set him up, knowing that it will be near impossible to bring him down,

Anything for the drama.

And all those STUPID Americans out there who BELIEVE the Marxist Dimocrat cry that RICH REPUBICANS this, rich republicans that, rich republicans, yada yada yada are the evils and problems of all. Yet more RICH dimocrats are out there than republicans donating all this money to the Chicago punk now playing at president. I am simply sick to my stomach of the Obama kiss up fest on TV. You cannot even watch sports without some tie into how the jerk is this or the jerk is that in sports, music, the arts, everything. He has done everything. He is the smartest guy in the world and will save the world. I am sick and tired of the entire mess. ENOUGH!!! He is nothing short of a Chicago gangland punk. That is ALL he is. He is NOT the second coming.

As I have said early and often, this will be the most corrupt, investigated administration since, well Bill Clinton.

Corrupt...YES

Investigated...doubtful.

Well just to clarify it, he is HALF WHITE. He is then about 45% Omani Arab, and he is the remainder black African. There, fixed that.

The mainstream media loves trashing their boys when the next election is more than two years out.

That way, when they dole out the journalist blowjobs for the two years leading up to the next election, they have some mothballed negative stories they can point to and claim balance.

Rinse. Lather. Repeat.

None of this surprises me.

The MSM made sure nothing detrimental was published or said about BHO during the election no matter how true it was.

Am surprised at ABC for publishing this. Maybe BHO snubbed them in some way so they are retaliating.

Thank God the Democrat party is for the “little guy”.

Today’s Democrat Party, Rich liberal elites setting policy combined with ignorant, useful idiots doing the legwork and paid off with other people’s money.

Excellent comment. Ditto's to it.

"Though the federal government is pitching in $10 million toward the cost of Obama’s Inauguration, his team is planning festivities that could cost as much as $50 million."

They missed THAT by a hundred million bucks.

You are right, first of all, about the government itself being the major factor behind this whole mess. They got in there by politicians deciding that they knew how housing

As Thomas Sowell...

the government thought they knew how markets ought to operate better than people who had operated housing markets all their lives and so they put pressure in various sorts but very strong pressure on all kinds of lending institutions to lend money to people they would never have lent money to otherwise. And now that both the lenders and the borrowers have been ruined by this transaction, the politicians are looking everywhere except in Washington to find a scapegoat.

The most important thing to know about Obama is that he is an HALF African!

I heard that it was more like 7.5%

from consumers to business, the problem is not going to be solved by borrowing more money for “bailouts”

To recover, the USA needs to :
1. Impose bold and brave tax incentives to individuals and businesses in order to break up the huge monopolies that suck everyone dry , from the phone companies to fast food to Home Depot, we are sucked dry and got nothing left to buy stuff with

2. Pass Laws and regulations that make consumer loans and mortgages possible to pay off, the loan rates have everyone sucked dry, we have nothing left to buy anything with, its all going to pay interest rates and taces

3. stop hemorraging money out to the rest of the world, it NEVER returns into the US economy

too bad this will NEVER happen during the CHANGE to socialism
the greedy politicians and their good friends the moneylenders have the citizens in a stranglehold
with a rope around our necks choking the life out and another in our pockets

so the politicians solution is to loan their buddies more rope

I have asked this question before and got yelled at. Why are we protecting these guys from tax increases? We draw the tax protection line above them and so far R party has completely lost the tax issue. I say elected Rs raise firedrill about national debt and offer democrats these guys to pay more taxes, but no small business owners. Democrats plan on probably increased taxing above 80K. We offer them 1000K (1M) in return for no additional spending, which they will reject.
