The first prerequisite for a free society is an educated and informed electorate. Over the past 30 years the Democratic Party through the Teachers Unions have substituted another educational philosophy … “We will teach them enough to read our orders.” A growing share of the public has lost its literacy. When history is about yesterday, a citizen loses his ability to make a connection between the actions of a corrupt Democratic Party to frustrate attempts to reform the GSEs and today’s crisis. The roots of this crisis go back to 1977 when the Carter adminstration began to force banks to loan money to borrowers who could not pay back the loans. This is concept is beyond the intelliectual reach of the average American. What other explanation is there for Obama to lead McCain on the financial crisis? Obama is on the Fannie Mae/Freddie Mac payroll. Franklin Raines and Jim Johnson have advised him and yet people trust him and blame President Bush and the Republicans for the Crisis. We have reached the point where Democratic Party control of the MSM has surpassed Soviet control of the media. They have convinced the voter that the crisis that they caused is the fault of the side that attempted to head it off.

Welcome to the new America where black is white, up is down and 2+2=5
