Regarding "This Election"; the candidate: "Barack Obama"; and "The MainStream Media"
How many times have you stopped and "caught yourself".......... literally "shaking your head" - in UTTER AMAZEMENT & DISBELIEF - that Barack Obama is even a "candidate" for President Of the US, much less the INSANE REALITY of him actually LEADING/WINNING!?!
Couple that with the almost total Media Blackout regarding his obvious, blatant and irrefutable poor judgement, past history, anti-american friends/associates, etc. etc. Not only does the media not mention or question the incredibly obvious, alarming and very real CONCERNS, ISSUES & DANGERS surrounding him being elected and holding power; the media instead overwhelmingly and in blind denial SUPPORTS him!?!
THE INSANITY, DISTRUST & BETRAYAL of the American Public, the Office of the President, the Election Process, Rampant Accorn Voter Fraud, etc. is simply baffling beyond belief.
Make no mistake.............. this is one of the PRIMARY REASONS the MARKET & ECONOMY are in FREEFALL. The media support of Barack Obama makes NO SENSE! It's utterly CRAZY. Any normal, rational, intelligent, sane and/or "prudent" person (which are "no doubt" the very individuals who own/hold the vast majority of businesses and $$ invested in the market); would only naturally respond/react with extreme skepticism and fear.
The Economy & Markets are reacting out of Fear & Disbelief of Barack Obama becoming POTUS.
What about the global markets? They should love him.
I absolutely agree. The markets are bad because the money men know that OBucks is one scary dude. Rupert Murdoch has openly admitted that he thinks the Great O will wreck the world’s economy.
I’ve been saying this for 4-5 weeks.
Nothing like this lingered during or right after the conventions.
I also think there’s a “manufactured” element to the financial crisis to get Obama in the White House.
We are destined to look like England from the 50s to the 70s. The markets hate this uncertainty and investors fear the prospect of losing their investments to government take-overs.
I think we are all amazed and almost in a state of shock to realize that within months, America may very well be entering the first stage of an eventual communist dictatorship, having fallen for the greatest political swindle of all time. This is really a “man bites dog” situation and the markets are appropriately in complete upheaval, as capitalism itself is under attack. The most incredible aspect is the willingness of Americans to accept and even welcome their own doom.
Sure. The credit crisis had absolutely nothing to do with it. </sarcasm>
It's indeed a swindle, and it's amazing that roughly 1/2 the population can't even see through the thinly-veiled coup. It is indeed the possibility of an Obama Presidency that is sinking the markets. If he wins, this country's economy will sink drastically, taking the world's economy along with it.
Not only that, but we will become much more vulnerable to terrorist attack. Our enemies recognize Obama to be a spineless liberal with no resolve to see things through. However, he’ll do a good job in trying to shift blame to the policies of GWB as the cause.
Last night I went to a crossroad by a cemetary at midnight and walked backwards counterclockwise 3 times to make the markets rise and fall today.
If it happens you can’t prove it wasn’t my doing.
If you just go back and listen to his interview with Maria Bartiromo you can see exactly why the world financial entities fear and loathe Obama.
He’s made it clear he doesn’t care what bad things happen to the markets, it’s only fair to redistribute the wealth.
Well what can we do instead of nagging about it?! What would Paul Revere have done in this situation? The fact that our very way of life is ending right before our eyes and all we do is talk amongst ourselves of the imminent demise? Seriously, what can us common folk do, aside from sit and watch? Im sick of sitting around and doing nothing, wheres the “head” that we have to cut off, Ill bring a big “saw” and we can all work together!

Good gosh! Are you CRAZY, man? You put a conservative thread on Free Republic?
THANK YOU!

Many on Wall Street are Democrats, most of their investors are Republicans. It is not a good match and perhaps a less than optimal situation for the investors.
