Comments on: McCain Accused of Using Economic Crisis for Political Gain http://pjmedia.com/blog/mccain-accused-of-using-economic-crisis-for-political-gain/ Thu, 16 Feb 2012 03:26:33 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.2.1 By: Robert Guthrie http://pjmedia.com/blog/mccain-accused-of-using-economic-crisis-for-political-gain/#comment-116907 Robert Guthrie Thu, 02 Oct 2008 15:35:35 +0000 http://pajamasmedia.com/blog/mccain-accused-of-using-economic-crisis-for-political-gain/#comment-116907 I don't care how much money Obama received from ACORN or Fannie or Freddie or Frank Raines. Going back to 1980 the republicans have had the White House for 20 of the last 28 years. The only time the country did well was under the eight years under Clinton. I consider myself a moderate independent which I know fox news hates because your agenda is to stir people up so much that they fear 'foreigners' and need saving economically by the government...a republican government...you hope...but the evidence tells a story that you don't want people to acknowledge...republican policies have almost destroyed the economy of this county and republican handling of the war, in both Iraq and Afghanistan, has resulted in grandstanding and bungling so bad it is embarrassing to me as a citizen of the U.S. Do I even need remark about Bush v. Gore...are you kidding 'voter fraud'? How about Ohio in 2004? Your reporting is so biased and unbalanced that you must be aware that you are preaching to the choir. All I see when I watch fox is cheerleading for old & busted!!! I don’t care how much money Obama received from ACORN or Fannie or Freddie or Frank Raines.

Obama wants the economy to stay in the tank until the election. A McCain led solution would be damaging to him. House and Senate Democrats are trying to cover their involvement in this mess, by blaming Bush. Yeah, the lame duck was the one taking all the campaign contributions. Pelosi couldn't carry the Dems and she knew it. So, she blamed the 'Pubs BEFORE the vote! She makes it their fault. Aaaw, the poor babies. They don't want to get blamed for this so the Dems can get re-elected and do more harm, while they get hammered on election day. If McCain had not grandstanded and announced the suspension of his campaign, I would say he didn't try to make political hay. He should've quietly shown up. Doing that would've given him all the power necessary to do what was needed, then he could claim a measured portion afterwards. The right bill could've allowed him to deliver every Repub vote, because they could've ridden his coattails to re-election. He'd've shown himself as THE leader of the party by delivering their votes, and they'd've benefitted. The only one who didn't play politics with this was... Bush! He's too tired to care anymore about politics. What I want to know is this: Who isn’t using this for political advantage?

I like this point: "The reaction of the candidates speaks volumes about their readiness to react to crisis. Remember the difference between McCain and Obama when Russia invaded Georgia? At the time, voters trusted McCain on the issue by a two-to-one margin." As an Australian, I don't trust Obama one little bit. At least McCain's family knows hat it is like to fight down here, when it hits the fan. Actions speak louder than PC memoirs. Thank God Pam Meister is jogging America’s memory. I like this point:

PHILLIP BERG’S LAWSUIT AGAINST BARACK OBAMA BASED ON OBAMA’S INELIGIBILITY ON HIS CANDIDACY AS REGARDS THE REQUIREMENTS OF NATURAL BORN CITIZENSHIP ACCORDING TO THE CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. Partial excerpt from an email I sent Mr. Berg: “I trust the judge did not originally dismiss your lawsuit because it does indeed have merit. We, as Americans, in order to fulfill the intent and directive of our Constitution are bound by patriotic duty to determine the legal status of any citizen running for the Presidency of the United States; such determination of status having to do with a requirement that said citizen must be a natural born citizen. Mr. Obama should be required to present pertinent evidence that would allow a judge or qualified public official to determine if he is, or is not, a natural born citizen. It is a legal requirement.” Mr. Berg sent this copy of Mr. Obama’s and the DNC’s response. Update: http://www.nextgenerationcorp.com/NextGenBlog/?p=66 It appears that Mr. Obama is trying to stall the matter. The outstanding issue is Mr. Obama’s birth certificate (Certificate of Live Birth). It appears that so far he has obfuscated this issue as well by providing, or having his agents provide, a false certificate of birth for publication. But to Mr. Obama’s determent, the people of the United States of America demand that he (Mr. Obama) remove himself from eligibility to run for any political office for which he is not qualified and/or for which he (Mr. Obama) will not publicly present authoritative qualification for his candidacy as required by the Constitution of the United States of America. God bless. UPDATE TO MR.

Why did they not go ahead and vote for or against it? I guess Do Nothing Democrats- applies to both the House and Senate. How could we ever survive with a Democrat controlled Congress and a Democrat President? Again the question-

Maybe at a Strawberry festival in Kansas. We need a President who will find out what is going on, not someone hidding his head in the sand in Mississippi.
