Fox: Obama largely responsible for housing mortgage mess
Fox News | 9/30/08

Posted on 09/30/2008 6:12:40 AM PDT by pabianice

Fox just interviewed Stanley Kurtz. Kurtz claimed a documented, direct link between Obama's training ACORN criminals and the mortgage disaster as ACORN was the largest gang in forcing the banks to make the bad loans. Obama was ACORN's principal trainer in Illinois.

My question: where is McCain? He could run ads proving this link and destroy Obama's candidacy. He isn't.

I keep thinking to myself over and over when will the ads about Obama delaying the troop pullout until after the election (illegal), Obama’s ties with Rezko and Bill Ayers coming to light, and when his remarks regarding Infanticide will be used against him. Those three alone should have huge impact and aren’t being used. I would run them over and over to reiterate it to the sheeple. Then again, maybe they are saving the best for last (two weeks)?!?!

maybe McCain will sharpen the talons after a deal is reached on the bailout.
Maybe.

I think he’s waiting for the next debate which is on the economy. He cleaned Obama’s clock on the foreign policy debate. That first Friday night debate had low ratings. I believe McCain is waiting for round two which should be seen by a huge audience.

For a while there, I thought McCain was going to smash-mouth these leftist/socialists whenever they mouthed off - because he WAS doing it.

Now this comes along...

McCain is just another less-than-bright, hack politician. He and/or his handlers have already just about neutered Palin. That he would neuter this and other potential advantages is just about par for the course.

To paraphrase Senator Dirksen, “A trillion here, a trillion there, and pretty soon it adds up to real money.”

If McCain doesn't have the guts to run with this, get former prosecutor Rudy Guiliani out there - day after day, microphone after microphone, talk show after talk show, til this election is over. Say you're gonna make him your AG in a McCain White House. That man has brass, exuberance, and a big persuasive presence.

I don’t understand why the McCain campaign has not make a tv ad connecting ACORN to the finacial crisis and Obama’s connection to ACORN.

Have you caught any of Bush’s explanations for the root causes here? It’s an embarrassment that seems to start and end with housing prices declining.

Obama was ACORN’s Jackie Chiles.

If their credit sucks, loan them the bucks!

It appears that McCain has already missed the opportunity to get in front of this thing. Too bad, really.

I guess you could call that a partisan attack and since this issue needs to be about “Country First” I doubt we will see McCain blaming anyone.

When the smoke clears McCain will be the winner in this thing because as long as you set your priorities straight and stick to them 99 percent of the time good guys still finish first.

I just heard his speech about the non-passage of the bill. Scared me that he basically said “I don’t care what the people think, this bill WILL be passed.”

OBAMA,ACORN,THE BLACK CAUCUS AND FRANKLIN REIN ALL NEED TO BE INVESTIGATED.

I CALL FOR A THOROUGH INVESTIGATION OF ACORN AND ITS ORGINIZERS. HOW DO WE KNOW THIS WAS NOT ALL SET UP SO OBAMA HAS THE ADVANTAGE!!! DIDNT IT START WITH FANNIE?
