    Corporate Lodging Discounts

    You're right - there is always a 4.95 charge for each night billed to CLC. However, if you call their toll-free number and ask one of their customer service people to call the hotel and make the reservation for you they will charge an additional one-time fee of 4.95 for each reservation. I tried...

    William Ayers - Terrorist

    Take a close look at those pictures - how can anyone closely associated with someone like this be considered a serious presidential candidate? Then we realize his other confidants are Rev. Wright, Tony Rezko, etc. His resume is empty, other than being an insignificant state senator and junior...

    Vote!!!! Third Party!!!!!

    Just look back at what effect voting for third party presidential candidates has had in the past. Did the votes in 1992 for Ross Perot have any lasting effect? How about those for Ralph Nader in 2000? The answer to both questions is yes: in '92 the Republicans that didn't like HW Bush and wasted...

    Harry Reid, moron extraordinaire

    If you think it's bad now, imagine what he and Pelosi will be like with an empty suit like Obama in the Oval Office. If people aren't inspired by McCain, maybe they ought to think about what an administration put together by Barack Hussein Obama would look like. How many of us are old enough to...

    Amazing, the differences...

    I thought she did very well, but she missed several opportunities to slam the democrats for stonewalling regulatory reform on Fannie and Freddie. She could have very easily brought up the congressional hearing that took place in 2004, exposing Maxine Waters and Barney Frank defending the corrupt...

    Silverado Saving & Loan/Facts

    Your obsessive hatred of the Bush family is obviously starting to wear thin, especially when you start digging up 20-something year old trivia about the President's then 29-year old brother. He was a minor player in this mess, and became involved well after Silverado was mired in financial...

    Financial Crisis Explained Even Better!!

    WATCH THIS VIDEO! This is a collection of clips from a congressional hearing in 2004 in which regulators brought to light the mismanagement going on in Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. These regulators along with several Republicans attempted to impose tighter restrictions and more oversight on...

    birk econnomic recovery program

    If his math skills are any indication, Birkenmeier must work for Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac. $85 billion divided by 200 million = $425.00 per person. It is a good general concept, however.

    Financial Crisis Explained

    This video takes a few minutes to watch, but it's worth every minute. It's a good documentation of how this subprime lending mess was transformed from a small government program into the cancer we now have in our banking system. Be prepared to use your pause button so you can make notes on the...

    Bush is a Marxist

    I guess I mangled that statement somewhat, so let me try again now that I've had some sleep. I'm using approximate figures because I don't feel like slogging through the IRS website this late at night. The percentage of our population that pays income taxes is not 95% - it's more like 55%. The...

    Bush is a Marxist

    RE the poll: these are three false premises. (1) McCain's incarceration as a POW qualifies him for nothing except gratitude from the nation. Not a valid choice. (2) It's become evident with the passage of time that Barack Hussein Obama's recitations of speeches written by David Axelrod...

    Bush is a Marxist

    I agree wholeheartedly that the US Govt has no business bailing out business. What's next - the US auto makers? If these businesses are poorly managed they should be allowed to fail and let the market take its natural course. The Bush administration and the Democrat controlled congress share the...

    And Obama will waste tax dollars?

    One other seldom-mentioned fact relative to earmarks and pork barrel spending: during their criticisms of earmarks in AK, the Democrats never mention the pork accumulated by Sen. Robert Byrd (D-WV) which totals over $3 BILLION since 1991. He has over 40 buildings, highways, projects, etc. named...

    Community Organizing and Saul Alinsky

    With all the talk from the Democrats about Barack Hussein Obama's community organizing experience, the following link gives us a pretty good insight to the modern philosophy of the radical left and the Democrat party. For those not familiar with Saul Alinsky, a strong case could be made for him...

    Why wont they let Sarah talk to the press?

    As with most liberals, facts mean nothing and objectivity is inconceivable. It would be nice of we could see an unedited version of the interview; I heard this morning that the versions we will see on 20/20 and other shows were altered to do her no favors. However, it appears that she did quite...

    McCain's VP

    Granted, there are radicals among Jews as there are with any other group. However, I haven't read about many Jewish suicide bombers lately, or seen any films of Jewish terrorists filmed beheading Muslim civilians or anyone else. But what should we do about these "scams"? As I've said before, if...

    This makes me want to vote for McCain.

    You guys from the great state of MI are certainly more knowledgeable about Gov. Granholm than I am, so a few questions about her governing methods and her economic policies: 1. She belongs to which political party? 2. When she first came into office, what did she do with taxes? 3. What did...

    McCain's VP

    Reverting back to the original theme of this thread - most of you may have already seen this picture, but for those of you who haven't, here ya go. As women candidates go, would you rather have her or Hillary? Is this change, or what?
