WASHINGTON (AP) — Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama says the prospect of a massive government bailout of the financial industry means that he probably would have to delay the spending programs he has called for during his campaign.

Obama is removing any reason for people to vote for him. His only real appeal was that he was going to give a lot of Americans more of someone else’s money. Now he says he won’t even do that.

The Zero suddenly realizes that his expanded government spending and higher taxes isn't such a hot idea after all?

He plays two ends against the middle but then convinces some of the middle that he does it for them.

Now I understand why he changed his slogan from “change we believe in” to “change we need.”

Well, there’s always a silver lining to the darkest cloud. But then, the question becomes, will he really delay any of his spending programs or will he discover, once he takes office, that the issues his increases were to benefit are far worse than we were led to believe and cannot be postponed and implement them on top of the bailout?

This lending crisis, the causes of which lie with the Federal government, should be a signal that he abandon his spending programs.

Does anyone really believe this guy? Is there anything credible in what he has to say?

He has used the (original) Mayor Daley method of advancement, but he put it on a National stage, where it didn’t get such good reviews from the critics.......

Politics in Chicago is truly a contact sport.

That genius, Krauthammer, said a few days ago in a column. The bailout was so big that it would nuke any of the Empty Marist Suit’s economic giveaways, leaving him with NOTHING TO PANDER WITH.

WHEN is someone going to pin him on his National Security (Police) Force - that he wants to be a big as the military and with as much funding?

He vows to cut military spending “by tens of billions of dollars” and “I will slow our development of future combat systems”............(the very thing that keeps us ahead of our enemies) - AND then he intends to establish a NATIONAL police force. I believe that unconstitutional - as that is nothing more than a totalitarian Police Force to subdue the population of a country - think Gestapo.

His Jack-booters would be “just as powerful, just a strong, just as well-funded” as our military is now - BUT remember, he vows to gut the military at the same time. That would make his Jack-booters more powerful than even our military.

Now, why isn't someone asking him why, since we DO have the military - to protect us from foreign enemies, the Coast Guard to protect our shores and the states have their National Guards, the new Homeland Security for an additional layer of protection - WHY do we need another layer of law enforcement - one that, from his own mouth, would end up being more powerful that all the rest within our borders?

There needs to be an add - RIGHT NOW - with this video and clips of Hitlers SS and the Brown Shirts (the SA force)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gwaAVJITx1Y

And the young people need to be reminded that obambi intends to have, not a VOLUNTEER system of people helping people - but a MANDANTORY system where, from middle school age up (think Hitler's Youth) that will HAVE to serve however they are told...Will they be issued Brown Shirts or shiny new Jack Boots? - I don't think a lot of young people will like the idea of having to spend a couple years worth of their time in mandatory ‘service’...many will need that time to work for a living while they get their education.

McCain's idea of helping is as VOLUNTEERS - not forced labor.

And remind the young folks that, with the obambi’s idea of MANDANTORY service - the draft well may be brought back. Dems have long wanted this - Charles RAngel has said it out loud.

Get this word out there and the youth vote for the dems will dry up quickly.

Who has the contact info for the vets and other outfits that are making ads for our side. We need to get this video to them and the McC campaign NOW - and the media regulars like RUSH, Hannity, Brit, Beck, even Greta. Tell them to include this clip of Rangel promising to bring back he draft -

Not at all. He realizes his plans might be delayed a bit - but make no mistake, not shelved.

His plan for a massive National Security Force (think Jack-boots and Brown Shirts) as big as the military and as well funded (HIS words) combined with a Mandatory National Public Service for young people - (is this where he gets the people to fill the ranks of his new army? - think Hitler's Youth) -

Put these two videos out there - get them into ads by outfits on our side NOW - and the youth vote for the obambi will dry up quick...

and here's a short clip of two black youths tying in his National Army with his mandatory National Service Corps http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7N3BW9dKEf0&feature=related

("Require 100 Hours of Service in College{per year]: Obama and Biden will establish a new American Opportunity Tax Credit that is worth $4,000 a year in exchange for 100 hours of public service a year.

Promote College Serve-Study: Obama and Biden will ensure that at least 25 percent of College Work-Study funds are used to support public service opportunities instead of jobs in dining halls and libraries. ) {Jobs in dining halls and libraries were what made it possible for my granddaughters to EAT while in college} 100 hours a college year - that's 10 weeks at 40 hours (or 40 weeks of 10 hours, assuming college students couldn't work full time AND do college - many have to work for WAGES to eat and otherwise get through college. How thin will they be stretched under obambi's plan? Live links next post - These need to be folded into ONE AD
