Yesterday John McCain made this statement regarding Senator Obama’s infomercial which aired via his multi-million dollar ad buy on CBS, NBC, FOX, UNIVISION, MSNBC, and NY1:
“When you’re watching this gauzy, feel-good commercial, just remember that it was paid for with broken promises. Senator Obama signed a piece of paper committing to public financing of his [...]

Created by the conservative group “Let Freedom Ring,” this one-minute ad just aired during prime time in the swing state where I live. I think it’s very effective.

I have a funny story for you - some comic relief from all of the sexism, class warfare, racism charges, defacing of property, etc. Just to give us all a it of a break two weeks before the election.
But first, I do want to point out that a lot is going on [...]

There have been some complaints that not enough is being written on the Economy, and that there is too much focus on Obama’s shady past. True enough, the stock market hasn’t been looking too good this past week. Or the week before that. Or even the week before that one.
But [...]

But sadly, too many people choose to ignore it, or accept it, or just call you a racist for noticing it. But the pattern is there. It begins like this:
Obama has a friend or associate that is questionable.
Video or articles surface of Obama thanking them, supporting them, writing a blurb for their book, organizing events [...]

The American Issues Project, the 501 (c)4 organization whose first ad exposed Obama’s long-term friendship with domestic terrorist Bill Ayers and which the Obama team tried to quash, released a new ad on Wednesday about the economic meltdown, Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae, and corruption.

My neighbor, with some input from me, penned this letter to our senators and representative today:

Here is the outline of the draft agreement for the bailout:

The problem is in paragraph 3c–it earmarks money for the Capital Magnet Fund. A site, Blogs for McCain, has the story:
In the “agreement in principle,” there is the effect of a major “earmark” which commits money from future “profits” to be given to nonprofits [...]

As noted in previous posts I am in Europe finishing up work on a project related to national security. This gives me a great perch to observe the wave of financial news bearing down on the United States with the markets closing in Asia and the markets in Europe just getting started. So [...]
