I urge every reader here to take ten minutes out of your day sometime soon and watch this video. Then, if you believe as I do, that it is the most powerful, most truthful exposé available as to the criminal government/Wall Street elements that are behind our current economic meltdown, please send it to as many people as you can.
I know many of you have volunteered, or will be volunteering, to work for the election of McCain-Palin. I will be doing the same. But there is no amount of envelope licking, phone calling, or wearing out of shoe leather that will be able to match the distributing via e-mail of this ten-minute video that fingers the culprits that the media are attempting to keep under wraps. Those culprits are directly involved in this election and the desire to attain the White House and retain control of Congress.
We cannot allow that to happen, and I believe the compilation of facts that this video represents, if placed in the hands of all thinking Americans, will see to it that it doesn't.
In his attempt to explain the causes of this crisis, the President insinuated in his speech of last night that it all started because America’s economy was considered so brilliant that it attracted investors from all over the world. As a result, banks and financial institutions were awash in money, and that state of affairs planted the seed for this debacle. (*choke*)
That is the greatest whitewash of the reasons for this catastrophe imaginable. Either President Bush is completely ill-informed and he believes that tripe, or he is the most blatant liar since Gepetto’s son walked off the woodcarver’s bench.
After the President’s speech, and after I stopped spitting nails, my husband and I watched Brit Hume and his panel on FoxNews offer up a brief analysis.
Charles Krauthammer, who is among my favorite political pundits, opined that the speech was quite good, and that he was surprised that the President spent virtually one-fifth of it attempting to explain the causes of the current crisis – since, in Krauthammer’s opinion, doing so amounts to simply an ‘academic exercise’.
An ‘academic exercise’? To discern what caused this major economic meltdown? Shall we just accept the notion that ‘too much foreign money’ floating around in American banks was the catalyst?
If we don't uncover the reason for this crisis, and determine who was responsible for it, will there be any reform? Or, post-bailout, will the perpetrators eventually continue with business-as-usual? Anyone who has an even rudimentary knowledge of government at any level has the answer to that question at his fingertips.
We are being fed whitewashed reports about the cause of this economic meltdown. If the true perpetrators of this massive criminal undertaking that promises to have devastating effects on the American people for decades to come are not uncovered, removed from power, and punished, there is no hope of realizing the kind of all-encompassing economic and political reform that will be necessary to not only stabilize our economy, but to ensure our very survival as a free republic.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1RZVw3no2A4 is even newer...you can again hear Chris Dodd make a buffoon of himself. :-)
Done. Thanks again.
Seems to be the same version with all copyright free music. Perhaps I am wrong but the beginning seems to be the same except the music.
No...the beginning is different. Plus, Chris Dodd isn't muted out.
Haha... someone posted a negative comment on the youtube link, then four minutes later someone with a different YouTube name posted the same exact same negative comment. Obamamaniacs are hard at work trying to put the fire out! Burn baby BURN!!! THIS DESTROYS DNC!! THIS WINS THE ELECTION!!
And my fervent hope (as I'm sure it is yours and most every FReeper on this forum) is to see Senators Christopher Dodd (D-CT), Barack Obama (D-IL), and Representative Barney Frank (D-MA), along with Jim Johnson and Franklin Raines, all testifying before a panel on Capitol Hill and in a District of Columbia Court.
One thing's for sure: Heads need to roll.
From my e-mail from Family Research Council:
“Writing elsewhere columnist Mona Charen brings up a glaring example of how wary we need to be about voter fraud this November 4th. Her column exposes the uber-liberal, taxpayer-funded Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now (ACORN). ACORN says it is “the nation’s largest grassroots community organization of low- and moderate-income people.”
However, their two main accomplishments appear to be perpetuating voter fraud and furthering their reliance on the federal trough. ACORN employees are under investigation in a number of places, most of them battleground states. Both candidates need to do everything in their power to ensure that voter fraud does not occur.”
“the Federal Bureau of Investigation - otherwise known as the FBI, is finally getting an investigation underway into the Fannie Mae - “
That is good news indeed. They should just let Fannie and Freddie go down. They are dead weight.
I called my congresscritter again today and asked if the corrupt ACORN was in the last bill, and the aide said she would get back to me (she did when I called in the past).
The reason I called is because I want them to know how important it is that they take out corrupt pork, like ACORN, in any future bills.
They have a new bill, which will probably be voted on Wednesday, and it seems all they are going to do is raise the insurance from $100,00 to $250,000? and give tax breaks, which is fine in itself, but what does it have to do with fixing the problem?
Is govt. going to continue to force banks to loan money to poor people who can’t pay the money back?
Thanks (again), Jim.
Your placing the link to this video on the FR homepage is no doubt responsible for the huge increase in viewership.
Kudos!

From the comments at the latest version:
“BTW - O’Reilly FINALLY picked up on Franks & the rest of Dems that blocked Republicans trying to warn about Fannie & Freddie. Rep Artur Davis (D-AL) wrote a letter to Hannity apologizing for his part in the cover up ... basically stating his party hid it from him & that his conscience wouldn’t let him sleep. Good for him! Call & thank him for being a stand up American!”
Excellent post and ideas. I may have to repost your ideas so that we can get this new revolution for freedom, for capitalism, for America, for individual rights and liberty, for private property, started.
Please do. Pass it on!
