McCain: American Top Gun!

I'm not sure but it seems that a requirement for serving in the US Senate is castration or vasectomies at the very least. So, SENATOR McCAIN - Get mad! Defend us! American citizens of all sizes, shapes, ethnicities, etc. are all being hit by this "credit crisis." Commander McCain, for goodness sake, come out slinging in this last "debate." Axe the mild-mannered Clark Kent.

• Obama has been a trainer/lawyer for ACORN, teaching them how to intimidate bankers into lending money to "risky" borrowers;

• House Democrats and the Honorable "Sweetheart Deal" Chris Dodd are up to their eyeballs in the "economic crisis" and the worldwide economic tremors we see reverberating throughout the planet.

• Throw Barney Frank, Chris Dodd, Chuckie Schumer, and whomever else is culpable into jail and ask questions later. Get these guys off the street and out of Congress where they are doing so much DAMAGE.

• Bring out the info on the "real" Obama and tell us who's pulling Obama's strings. We deserve to know. Time to stop being nice, John.

SENATOR McCain - be the Navy fighter pilot who had to have guts to land on that tiny piece of metal bobbing in the ocean. Reach down deep and come out slinging. We - the American people - need a TOP GUN, not soft-spoken senator. This is the fight of your life; yes, harder than the Hanoi Hilton. This is the fight for US. Put on your Navy wings and engage, guns blazing. We need a new Sheriff in town. Let's get with it... Allow me to end this post with a link to a very thought-provoking post by Perri Nelson: Easier to tear down than build up. Indirectly, Perri has given us an assignment, an assignment to sit down and give thought to why we plan to vote for our candidate. A young commentor said, "I've only now realized that I didn't know of ANY positive robust evidence to back my candidate..." I want McCain to come out slinging, true. I want the truth to come out BUT Perri's challenge is valid and crucial to each of us. Why are you casting your vote for the person you've chosen? Really, why? Are your reasons substantive? It matters.

HR 3997 and Carter's Community Reinvestment Act of 1977

Here is a good resource for HR 3997 (H/T) to Taylor Norrish at ztay with a good link from Taylor Norrish: Govit.com is another good resource for HR 3997. It's got some good info, and you can vote on the bill, and send your vote to Congress. http://www.govit.com/HR_3997/Emergency_economic_stabilization_act_of_2008_-BD_Allow_the_gov/Comments Sound off! One more... Please take a look at the Housing and Community Reinvestment Act of 1977 at wikipedia: Community Reinvestment Act and Housing and Community Development Act of 1977 - Title VIII (Community Reinvestment. The wikipedia reference is short but it gives the history of the legislation from 1977 with changes made by George H. W. Bush, by Bill Clinton - when community organizers got involved and it appears that some folks made money by signing folks up for home mortgage loans, and by George W. Bush. There are very good articles listed in the references. So, our leaders as well as we - though more indirectly - have certainly been aware of this "train wreck" waiting to happen. PLEASE - at least read the wikipedia reference which is the first "Community Reinvestment Act" that I reference. I have to ask how community organizers - especially some referenced in Chicago - may or may not have been involved in signing up folks for "risky loans." ACORN, for example, got 760 million dollars under the act...
