Government should not control our destiny, we should control our destiny - Vote McCain-Palin.

McCain leads Obama in Florida, Missouri, Nevada
McCain tied with Obama in Ohio
McCain within Margin of Error in Virginia, Colorado

Who is Barack Obama? Friends with a Domestic Terrorist?

Bill Ayers is an unrepentant domestic terrorist who along with his wife hates this Country and bombed the Pentagon, Capitol, NY Police HQ and the family home of a NY State Judge.

Why won't Barack Obama admit that he knows Ayers and his wife? The son of the NY Judge said that Michelle Obama knew Ayers wife for years before Obama launched his political career in Ayers living room. Why doesn't anyone question Obama on this? Well, people are tired of this and want answers NOW!

Why does Obama just say Ayers is a guy from my neighborhood, when he was the leader of the Weather Underground, a domestic liberal left wing radical terrorist cell that prayed on innocent families.

Probably because if America knew of these "Real" ties to such people, Obama would never have beaten Senator Clinton in the Democratic Primary. Certainly, if people see this coverup, Obama will never be our President. Fortunately, it is not too late to get this message out.

McCain on Today's Job Loss Report: Obama-Biden Ticket's Long-History and Plan for Higher Taxes Not the Answer

Statement By John McCain On Today's Jobs Report
From the McCain '08 Newsroom
October 3, 2008

ARLINGTON, VA -- U.S. Senator John McCain today issued the following statement on the jobs report:

"Today's report of another 159,000 lost jobs confirms what America's working men and women have understood for months: our nation's economy is on the wrong track. It is imperative that Congress act to address the financial crisis while protecting taxpayers and being good stewards of their dollars. But we must do more.

"America's middle class needs help from a government that is truly standing on their side and not in their way. I am committed to getting to the roots of this crisis -- reforming Washington and cleaning up the mess created by the greed and crony capitalism of government-backed mortgage giants -- Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. I will reverse out-of-control spending, end the wasteful and corrupting practice of earmarks, and get the government budget back to balance. I will reform health care to control costs and better serve American families, open markets around the globe for our products, cut taxes, and expand domestic production of energy to eliminate the ability of international oil markets to hold our economy hostage. I will create jobs and get the economy on the right track.

"Unlike Senator Obama, I do not believe we will create one single American job by increasing taxes, going on a massive spending binge, and closing off markets. Our nation cannot afford Senator Obama's higher taxes."

Palin Wins Debate Hands Down: Palin Connects with America - Biden "Sighs" About the Past

Sarah Palin is ready to lead. She totally rocked the debate last night and was a total winner. Liberal media bias will tell you that she was friendlier and people liked her more she just can't match up with Biden. WRONG. If you saw the debate, your eyes don't lie. She went toe-to-toe with Biden for 90 minutes. Beyond just presentation, which the MSNBC crew likes to say to belittle her, Sarah Palin was also right on the substance and . America agrees with Governor Palin - Government is more often the problem than able to fix the problem.

Was it me or did it seem that every 3-5 minutes, you could hear this audible Al Gore-esque sigh over Senator Biden's microphone. Talk about depressing. What a contrast between the upbeat positive Sarah Palin and the old codger of Joe Biden who wants to dwell on President Bush and the Past. As they say, let's Move On. I thought Governor Palin totally rocked the house. Her presentation rocked and she made great points about energy, education and how Biden and Obama would rather waive the white flag than support our troops.

What the media said about last night:

"I think she just spoke to the people, the American People."
Luntz Focus Group Voter Fox News

"Governor Palin proved very adept at being a good debater. ... In many ways, she was a better surrogate for her top of the ticket than Joe Biden was for his."
Chuck Todd NBC

"I thought it was quite effective for her in general. I suspect most people, there are a few more hallmark moments, Norman Rockwell moments but I suspect most people will really like that."David Brooks New York Times

"It was her evening. She was the star. She had him at, 'Nice to meet you. Hey, can I call you Joe?' It was very interesting to me, for Palin tonight, for an hour and a half, I think America saw her for a really long time, and she became a star probably on a new level."
Peggy Noonan Wall Street Journal

Although I had wished that she would have gotten into this whole financial mess. Fannie Mae is the true culprit of this debacle and their fast and loose underwriitng standards - only permitted due to those Democrat coffers Fannie Mae lined with campaign contributions. Do we know why Fannie Mae went down? Yes, Democrat support of deregulation or maybe no regulation over Fannie Mae. On the other hand, John McCain fought for tougher oversight of Fannie Mae and was rebuffed by the filibuster proof Democrat minority and liberal Dems in the House.

ICYMI: WSJ - Barack Obama Blames Bill Clinton for Financial Market Meltdown

Barack Obama Blames Bill Clinton
Wall Street Journal
Review & Outlook
October 1, 2008

Click here for entire article, summary below:

Barack Obama attacks the 1999 bill and the deregulation former President Bill Clinton says he is still proud to support.

A running cliché of the political left and the press corps these days is that our current financial problems all flow from Congress's 1999 decision to repeal the Glass-Steagall Act of 1933 that separated commercial and investment banking.

Barack Obama has been selling this line every day. Bill Clinton signed that "deregulation" bill into law, and he [Bill Clinton] knows better.

In BusinessWeek.com, Maria Bartiromo reports that she asked the former President last week whether he regretted signing that legislation. Mr. Clinton's reply: "No, because it wasn't a complete deregulation at all. We still have heavy regulations and insurance on bank deposits, requirements on banks for capital and for disclosure. I thought at the time that it might lead to more stable investments and a reduced pressure on Wall Street to produce quarterly profits that were always bigger than the previous quarter.
