Obama and Ahmadinejad

Posted by Moonage on 29 Sep 2008 | Tagged as: 2008 Presidential Race

Obama and Ahmadinejad have been intertwined quite a bit in this race.  Seems kinda odd to me.  First, we had Obama’s flap that he would sit down with Ahmadinejad unconditionally.  He even cited Henry Kissinger as approving.  That didn’t fly with Kissinger too well who denounced Obama’s claims and flat out stated McCain is right, [...]

1977 Community Reinvestment Act, Barack Obama, and John McCain

Posted by Moonage on 20 Sep 2008 | Tagged as: Fed Policy

If you’re going to debate this current financial market crisis or criticize the efforts to mitigate it, you HAVE to read this article by Noel Sheppard at Newsbusters.org:
…The Carter-era Community Reinvestment Act forced banks to lend to uncreditworthy borrowers, mostly in minority areas.
Age-old standards of banking prudence got thrown out the window. In their place [...]

Hillary’s foreign oil strategy?

Posted by Moonage on 06 May 2008 | Tagged as: 2008 Presidential Race, Oil Policy, Oil Supply

This folks, is nuts:
“We’re going to go right at OPEC,” Clinton said, on a last-minute campaign swing ahead of Tuesday’s Indiana and North Carolina primary clashes against her Democratic rival Barack Obama.
“They can no longer be a cartel, a monopoly that get together once every couple of months in some conference room in some plush [...]

John McCain is still a citizen

Posted by Moonage on 02 May 2008 | Tagged as: 2008 Presidential Race, Conspiracy Theories

A lot has been debated over whether or not John McCain is legally able to run for president.  Now, the circumstances are he was not born IN the United states.  He was however, born on a United States base in Panama.  Now, I think most people pretty much came to the conclusion that since he was [...]

Clinton condemns the Clinton China Trade Agreement

Posted by Moonage on 29 Apr 2008 | Tagged as: 2008 Presidential Race

Here’s what Hillary Clinton said:

“A Chinese company bought Magnequench,” she said in a speech in Pittsburgh on April 14. “The people of Indiana, the company and the elected officials begged the Bush administration to block the Chinese company from moving the jobs to China…. Not only did the jobs go to China, but so did [...]

Hillary in 2012?

Posted by Moonage on 26 Apr 2008 | Tagged as: 2008 Presidential Race

From Dick Morris, who I highly respect:
Does Hillary want to beat up Obama so that he can’t win the general election in November, assuring McCain of the presidency so that she can have a clear field to run again in 2012? Obviously, if Obama beats McCain, Hillary is out of the picture until 2016, by [...]

Obama’s links to terrorists?

Posted by Moonage on 17 Apr 2008 | Tagged as: 2008 Presidential Race

Last night I didn’t watch the debate. I prefer to spend my time chasing a five year old around and working in the yard. Additionally, I prefer to just wait till it all filters out through what people take on it after the fact. 90% of any debate is fluff and posing, I just don’t [...]

Hillary Clinton and the rules

Posted by Moonage on 15 Apr 2008 | Tagged as: 2008 Presidential Race, Ethics

Hillary Clinton had a fundraiser hosted by Sir Elton John.  It went well, raising a couple of million dollars.  It should have, Sir Elton has quite a bit of money and hangs around people with a lot of money as well.  Only problem is, someone had a problem with it:

Judicial Watch has filed a complaint [...]

The economy and the 2008 election

Posted by Moonage on 15 Apr 2008 | Tagged as: 2008 Presidential Race, Polls

“We’ve been down this road before. It’s the road that George Bush has taken for the last eight years,” Obama said.
And:
“The Bush economy is like a trap door — Too many people are one pink slip away, one missed mortgage payment away, one medical diagnosis away from falling through and losing everything,” Clinton said Thursday [...]

McCain - Rice?

Posted by Moonage on 04 Apr 2008 | Tagged as: 2008 Presidential Race, Polls

Man, there is nothing more I’d love to see this fall than a McCain/Rice ticket.  Talk about ending this race mucho prompto?  Think ahout it.

Condi would, to say the least, neuter the race issue that so far is exclusive domain of Obama.  It’s there, for sure, and will be a factor in November.  However, Hillary [...]
