How did some of those 2008 predictions come out?

30 December 2008
Filed under: Business/Technology

There’s some really choice quotes in this Business Week column. My favorite is the Barney Frank prediction on Fannie and Freddie.
3. “I think this is a case where Freddie Mac (NYSE:FRE - News) and Fannie Mae (NYSE:FNM - News) are fundamentally sound. They’re not in danger of going under I think they are in […]

Obama The Magic Negro

Since I’ve been at my parents I’ve watched CNN, MNNBC and FNC - my Dad is a channel surfer and controls the remote. At home I’ve gotten away from watching any of the cable news or network news. I pretty much get all of my news off the internet. So it has […]

Oprah Suckered Again

Filed under: Culture, Absurd or Outrageous

Obama adorer and Queen of The Afternoon Mindless Drones has been suckered on another phony ‘true’ story.
HOLOCAUST SHAM SLAM
A Holocaust survivor’s amazing tale of romance - hailed by Oprah as “the single greatest love story in 22 years of doing this show” - is an outrageous fabrication, fellow camp survivors and experts told The Post. […]

2008 Story of the Year - Media

28 December 2008
Filed under: Media Bias/Distortion, 2008 Election

2008 was the year the ‘Mainstream’ Media officially died. It became an official mouthpiece for the Dhimmicrats and Obami ‘The Messiah’. The fawning over Obami is so over the top it’s mind numbing. Now the media thinks to workout every day is something to be ooh’d and ahh’d over but when it […]

Constitution for the New Deal

20 December 2008
Filed under: Dems/Neo-Socs/Lefties, Education, History

For those who believe that FDR was a savior and who now believe that the Obami is the Messiah, this is a satire. I don’t want you people of dim thought to misunderstand this piece from 1937 during the time of FDR’s major push toward the socialization of the United States.

It’s now against the law to be annoying in Brighton,Michigan

When I first started to read this story I thought it was talking about Brighton in Britain. Something like this wouldn’t surprise me considering what is going on in Londonstan. Brighton is 40 miles west of Detroit and 20 miles north of Ann Arbor, Michigan. So we’ve still got that whole Muslim/Islam […]

Pelousi fiddles while the economy goes down in flames

Nancy Pelousi has no problem telling Wall Street or Auto executives to cut their salaries but look at what she’s just done! She’s given herself and Congress a PAY RAISE! A pay raise in a time when so many Americans are losing their jobs. How heartless and money grubbing can you get? […]

What goes unmentioned in this sob story about Veronica Ventura-Cruz?

Let’s see, this couple from Mexico has been in the US for 2 years, speaks no English and in that 2 years they’ve had 3 children(set of twins). Wonder who paid for those hospital bills? It’s a sob story for donations for what is probably an illegal alien family living Knox County, TN. […]

Obama’s Home Mortgage from Fannie/Freddie is $900,000 over Legal Limit

15 December 2008
Filed under: Dems/Neo-Socs/Lefties

From World Views:
While researching an article about Obama’s Chicago home about the circumstances surrounding who is the “owner”, I happened across a bit of information: Obama’s home has a Fannie Mae-Freddie Mac mortgage to the tune of $1,320,000. (Page 5 of Cook County Property Assessment Record)
And what was the upper limit for a Fannie/Freddie mortgage […]

YES! Auto/UAW Bailout goes down in Senate

12 December 2008
Filed under: Politics, Dems/Neo-Socs/Lefties

The raping of taxpayers has been delayed for at least 3 weeks. The Senate was very close with this ‘loan to nowhere’ for GM and Chrysler and the UAW. You know what brought down the deal? This shouldn’t surprise anyone - it was the United Auto Workers (UAW). UAW is really […]

TN Reps Vote along Party lines for Auto Bailout/UAW Bailout

Which way do you think the votes swayed for the auto bailout? Except for Jim Cooper the Democrats voted to bailout the UAW/auto union. We all know this isn’t to help the auto industry because there are a number of other auto company’s doing just fine. Especially those in the South. […]

I ‘Doubt’ Meryl Streep is an expert on Catholicism much less Terrorism

Once again Hollyweird has put out an anti-Catholic movie, I hope this movie is just as succesful as Hollywood’s recent anti-war movies (they’ve all tanked like a lead balloon).
But that great intellectual actress Meryl Streep is trying to tell us that this anti-Catholic movie is REALLY a metaphor against those who think the […]
