So Obambi gets advice from the biggest enablers of the current crisis (Dodd, Frank, Billy Jeff, Schumer and Harry "we don't know what to do" Reid).

Wonder what they talked about. Hmm...

I think that the only reason he didn’t mention speaking to Jamie Gorelick is that she was not available behind the “wall of separation”...

Governing by Committee now? No wonder he votes Present so much as he doesn’t have a clue what he is doing!

Help homeowners stay in their homes. This crisis started with homeowners and they bear the brunt of the nearly unprecedented collapse in housing prices. We cannot have a plan for Wall Street banks that does not help homeowners stay in their homes and help distressed communities.

The Man is an idiot. He prescribes more of the same

At the very least, many of them need to resign, based on their unwillingness to uphold the oath of office they took.

Great, he’s contacted everyone who caused the problem. If he gets elected, we can expect more of the same, and an even bigger bailout. I’m tired of supporting the irresponsibility of Washington, D.C.

What do you expect. He consults the same people that caused the crisis.

Probably assuring them that he won’t prosecute them if elected...

Man, this is crying for a followup ad to the Franklin Raines, Jim Johnson FM and FM deals. Call it the trilogy.

Question for Obama???


Why do you have a problem with us spending $700 Billion to bail out OUR ECONOMY when it was your plan to send $845 Billion of OUR MONEY to the UN for the Global Poverty Act (global welfare program) that you sponsored in the senate?
