<quoted text>Capitalism and free enterprise. That's a quiet little joke for "taking care of corporate America and their CEO's." All that cheap Chinese labor is for stuffing the bank accounts of CEO's and execs. Everything is made in China, and things should cost well below what they were when things were made here in America. However, when the item is shipped back, it costs the same as before. NIKE, for instance. They should cost about $20.00 a pair, with all the labor costs. Why do they still cost the same and more, as before they were made in China? Answer: All the extra profits went into the bank accounts of the CEO's for their golden parachutes. All the companies are interested in the same thing----more profits for themselves and their CEO's. Greed, greed, greed. It's all about greed.
If people would stop buying Nike's (I don't) at their high prices, wanna bet they would drop?

Speaking of golden parachutes, has Obama decried those garnered by Franklin Raines, Jaime Gorelick and Jim Johnson. YOu know... the people the ran Fannie and Freddie that somehow weren't called in to testify last week in Chuck Schumer's invetigation into the collapse of the financial market.

Sounds like Pork-Barrel Palin in not reading the memos.
In Michigan you have a Democrat for a governor, also many cities, and their senate. The democrats have been in charge in Michigan for some time now. They raised taxes, and that is what drove the businesses out of Michigan, and that is what you can expect if Obama is elected.

BEHEAD THOSE WHO INSULT OBAMA. That is the message from members of Islam. But he is not a Muslim though? Listen to Obama’s own words for yourself at:

Same for McCain regarding Mr. Paulson. I haven't even heard him decrie his eight houses yet. Obviously, Mr. McCain LOVES the culture of greed and excessiveness.

“The Arizona Republic has found that the senator’s wife, Cindy Hensley McCain, and her father, beer distributor James W. Hensley, invested $359,100 in April 1986 in a north Phoenix shopping-center project led by Keating.”

Cindy McCain later sold the $359,100 investment for $15,000,000.

Individual investors with Keating's Lincoln Savings and Loan lost everything.
Rich get richer and the poor get poorer. That's McCain's tax plan.

McCain's Katrina Response: Let Me Eat Cake!

August 29, for the record, is the day the levees broke. McCain says that had he been president, he would have flown to the nearest Air Force base to oversee the response. I realize that being a Senator is nothing like being President, but let's be honest, as a Senator he could have done something more than accept a cake from the president, no? Like, oh, I don't know... told the president to take his cake to the Air Force base nearest to New Orleans and share it with relief workers?

Old news, Palin's approval rating (gained by taxing oil companies and giving Alaskins a fat check) has been dropping.

That was the Southern wing of the Democratic Party, which quit and became Republicans after 1964 which, ultimately led many Blacks to quit the Republican Party and become Democrats.

It is kind of interesting, the two parties essentially switched ideologies.

A $516 trillion derivatives 'time-bomb'

Most markets have something behind them. Central banks require reserves – something that backs up the transaction. But derivatives don't have anything – because they are not real money, but paper money.

this system has core flaws, now that "confidence that hid that has gone" all core flaws stand out exposed

FROM WIKIPEDIA:CHECK THE LINK BELOW FOR MORE DETAILS.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Herbert_Hoover

In the presidential election of 1928 Hoover easily won the Republican nomination. The nation was prosperous and optimistic, leading to a landslide for Hoover over the Democrat Al Smith.

DO THE REPUBLICANS KNOW THAT THE GREAT DEPRESSION PRESIDENT WAS HERBERT HOOVER, A REPUBLICAN?

NOW THAT WE ARE IN THE BRINK OF ANOTHER DEPRESSION ANOTHER REPUBLICAN IS IN THE HELM. GEORGE ASSHOLE BUSH.

FOR ALL THE ARGUMENTS AGINST ABORTION, STEM CELL, ACORN, DEMOCRATS LIBERAL STANDINGS, NOT ONE DEMOCRATIC PRESIDENT HAS BROUGHT THIS COUNTRY TO THE DISASTERS SPAWNED BY THE REPUBLICANS.
DEMOCRATS ARE NOT PERFECT, BUT THEY WONT LEAD THIS COUNTRY TO KILL THE MIDDLE CLASS AND CAUSE ECONOMIC MELTDOWN OF GLOBAL PROPORTIONS.IN THE GREATER PICTURE, DEMOCRATS LIBERAL LEANINGS ARE LESS LIKELY TO CAUSE GLOBAL ARMAGEDDON COMPARED TO REPUBLICANS "CONSERVATIVE" BELIEFS.

CAN ANYONE TELL ME WHY ANYONE WHO VOTED FOR BUSH IN THE PASS SHOULDNT BE SHOT? ANY SURVIVORS, SHOT AGAIN.ANYONE WHO VOTED FOR HIM IN THE PASS SHOULD'T BE ALLOWED TO VOTE OR TO CAMAPIGNED FOR ANYONE BECAUSE THEIR JUDGEMENT YEILDS TO DISASTROUS RESULTS

IMAGINE THAT, REPUBLICAN LEADERS PASS AND PRESENT,WHO PROFESS TO BE PRO LIFE, CONSERVATIVE, GOD FEARING.THEY ARE THE ONES KILLING THE DREAMS ASPIRATIONS, BRIGHT FUTURES OF THE AMERICAN PEOPLE.

I've heard Obama say he wants to tax companies that send jobs overseas. Un, hey Barack have you ever heard of comparitive advantage? His policy to tax companies is totally ridiculous.
First of all, we're in a global economy and so all that will do is give an advantage to foreign competitors.
Second of all, what can he do about the Chinese being willing to work for fifty cents and hour with no benefits or worker rights?
Jobs are going overseas due to low labor costs and his answer is to increase taxes on US companies? All that will accomplish is that companies will flee the USA. Good job Barack!
Do you suggest that our workers should be willing to accept 50 cents a hour? We do see what happens with 'MADE IN CHINA' products. If things are made over seas due to lower wage cost why are their products the same price as American made products? Republicans don't care about the workers. It's all about profit. Not that you shouldn't work for profit but when is it enough?

That's exactly what Republicans want, but notice how prices for products stay the same? Moreover, you make a great point about the products we buy from CHINA. They are DANGEROUS. The Republicans believe FREE TRADE means NO INSPECTIONS. Our borders are porous and DANGEROUS, but when DISASTER will strike again, the Republicans will claim that no one could have imagined or expected it. We have over 20 MILLION ILLEGAL ALIENS!

Blah blah blah. Now that the WHOLE country is screwed, you can't blame the Democratic governor of Michigan for Michigan's problems. As goes Michigan so goes the country. BUSH and his FAILED policies have destroyed the manufacturing capital of the world, then he moved on, to destroy the financial and political capitals of the world. What next?

Palin Corrects Corrupt Media On Troopergate: "You Need to Read the Report" (Video)



Popular Alaska Governor Sarah Palin corrected the media today on the Troopergate non-scandal:

That was good but what the popular governor really needs to do is hold a press conference with her nephew who got tazed sitting behind her on the podium.

So, why a "Corrupt" media?
Here's why--- In all of the reports today on this non-scandal not one of the mainstream media outlets have included this vital information on the story:

Democratic state Senator Hollis French, the lead investigator in the smear campaign against Governor Palin, promised his party that the results of the Troopergate probe would be an "October surprise" that would "likely be damaging to the administration."

French is one of the 20%'ers in Alaska who does not approve of Governor Sarah Palin.
He also is a staunch Obama supporter:

Hollis French (fifth from left) and fellow Troopergate hack Kim Elton (on left with beard), who has donated to the Obama Campaign, sit on the panel investigating popular governor Sarah Palin.

Governor Palin fired former public safety director Walt Monegan for several incidents of insubordination.
French and Monegan are close friends.
Hollis French is a phony soldier.

Not one liberal media outlet has mentioned that the investigation was tainted from the beginning. Not one.
That's corruption.
The governor did nothing wrong in firing an insubordinate employee.

Obviously, the real story is how the corrupt media is spinning this smear against America's most popular governor.
