is OBAMA for real? Will there be law and order?

Democrats say Obama key in bailout vote switch
3 days ago

WASHINGTON (AFP) — Several Democratic members of the House of Representatives Friday said calls from Barack Obama helped convince them to switch their votes and back a 700 billion dollar Wall Street bailout.

Maryland Democratic representatives Donna Edwards and Elijah Cummings said they had both received calls from the party's White House nominee, after voting against the original package in the House on Monday.

"It meant a lot to me that somebody who at least has a 50-50 shot at being the next President of the United States would take time," Cummings said.

Obama said during the call that he would push attempts to reform bankruptcy laws to help ill-fated homeowners escape foreclosure, Cummings said, but stressed urgent action to save the US financial system was vital.

"We will work on this, but right now we have got to straighten this out," Cummings quoted Obama as saying.

tommy:


OBAMA IS NOTHING BUT ANOTHER JOKER. A wild card in the deck?

The economic destabilization of America, was a key strength for Obama or anybody opposing the GOP Bush Crime Family....so...what does Obama do?

He helps the bailout--FRAUD, as hundreds of billions poor into three jewish banks?


OBAMA kowtowed to AIPAC and helped the KIKE BANKERS steal our money?

Obama also kowtowed to the fucking KIKE-MOSSAD MAFIA scum at AIPAC, who murdered 3,000 Americans (Dancing Israels) on 9/11??????????????????


MUKASY AND CHERTOFF made sure the MOSSAD DEMOLITION TEAM got out of jail, and went home to Israel, after "bringing America into their middle eastern problem" that is not AN AMERICAN PROBLEM...with OUR US SOLDIERS DYING FOR THE JEWS BENEFIT?

Have we been decieved again?

Edwards said that Obama reached out to her on Thursday morning, as she was considering how she would come down in Friday's looming vote.

The bill was defeated on Monday by 225 votes to 208, a setback which sent stocks marks diving. The House was on Friday considering an amended version drawn up by the Senate and adopted by that chamber on Wednesday.

"I had a very good conversation with Senator Obama yesterday morning, and I had to weigh on that the entire day in coming to this decision," Edwards said.

Both lawmakers said they had to balance the fact that they believed that the bill lacked sufficient measures to attack the foreclosure crisis with the fact that some constituents were struggling amid a deepening credit crunch.

Cummings and Edwards are both members of the Congressional Black Caucus a majority of which voted against the bill on Monday. Sources said that Obama also placed other calls to members of the key Democratic voting block.

Another prominent African American lawmaker John Lewis, a prominent Obama supporter, also said Friday he would switch his vote.

"I have decided that the cost of doing nothing is greater than the cost of doing something," Lewis said.

"The fear that is gripping Wall Street has the power to shut down Main Street," he said.

"We cannot and we must not allow this to happen. The people are afraid. their retirement savings are slipping away."

AMERICA AS WE KNOWED AND LOVED IT, IS FINISHED:

America is finished! This revelation came to me while watching the second debate between Senators Obama and McCain in Nashville.

I have never before felt the sense of hopelessness as I feel now, after listening to these two pretenders to the Office of President. It is obvious that this debate was nothing more than a charade in which both of these so-called candidates refused to address the real reasons which is driving our nation into the abyss.



America is falling apart and the election of a new President beholden to special interests and corporate cash is not going to save the country, but only hasten its demise.


In regards to the economy neither candidate mentioned the failure of free trade and globalism, both of which benefit the wealthy elite at the expense of the working man.

Neither candidate even remotely referred to the wholesale transfer of entire industries overseas to China and many other Third World nations, leaving millions of Americans unemployed or working in low-paying service sector jobs.

Although both candidates mentioned the greed of Wall Street and expressed sympathy for the pain it has caused its victims, neither candidate spoke of the lack of help in the bailout legislation for those faced with losing their homes. McCain did, however, promise to help homeowners if elected.

Both candidates talked mostly in generalities in regards to reinvigorating the economy, with few details of what they would do or how they would get Congress to go along with any plan they might come up with.

Only the same mantra about how important it is to bail out Wall Street, which both candidates insist is necessary in getting the economy going again, despite the opinion of a majority of Americans who disagree.

Senator Obama promised middle class America a tax cut if he is elected, but failed to mention in the same breath that he just voted to give $700 billion of their tax payer dollars to Wall Street.

As for heath care, both candidates recognized the need to do something and both claimed to have a plan to insure all Americans, although both failed to say how much it will cost.

Both candidates also spoke of the need to do something about entitlements, particularly Social Security, with McCain invoking Ronald Reagan's model as a sterling example of Social Security reform, which despite the wording turned out to be just another huge tax increase in disguise.

In regards to the war Obama called for the head of Osama, while McCain laughed about his singing about bombing Iran to the tune of the Beach Boys Barbara Ann. Both candidates disagreed on the war -- not to end it, but where it should be fought.

And on and on they went, talking about treating the symptoms but coming up with no cure for the cause. It is clear that both men are little more than window dressing hoping to deceive voters into thinking that they still have influence in the political system but whose real agenda is obvious, that of serving the interests of their wealthy and powerful benefactors.

America is falling apart and the election of a new President beholden to special interests and corporate cash is not going to save the country, but only hasten its demise.

Having bet on both horses it is a win-win situation for the wealthy elite, but a sure loser for the rest of us. America, as we have known and loved it, is finished!
