Twice.

What. The. Fuck!?!

Are you better off since the Dems got a majority in Congress?

His use of one of Pres. Reagan's lines is proof that BHO's economic policies will equal those of Pres. Reagan? The depth of intellectual dishonesty takes away my breath.

The AP is, of its own accord, trying to generate memes to help Obama. This one is, "Hey all you people who voted for Reagan due to the bad state of the economy during Carter's reign: now that the economy's bad again, you once again should vote for "change" -- Obama!"

Will you be better off four years from now?

Reagan knew a Communist when he saw one, and that's what he'd see in Obama.

I voted twice for Reagan in my grade-school elections. I wouldn't even do that for Obama.

Bizarro world Reagan

There will not be trickle-down economics in an Obamination, rather, there will be a landslide of our money raining down the "workers" for their support of their Chairman - Uncle Barack!

re: #10 Spellcheck

No.
But you won't be allowed to say so.

I just threw up in my mouth a little.

After all, it was Reagan's friend Walter Annenberg who gave money to a terrorist to fund the Annenberg Challenge, so why's everyone getting all upset?

Reagan always said "America's best days are ahead of her." Obama has never said that.

If Obama wins, negative, but we won't have a choice over voting out The One. His various Truth Squads, Youth Brigades and All-Volunteer Homefront Force will make sure of that.

Don't forget Jimmy Carter was leading in the polls two weeks before Reagan crushed him.

I think you have to go back just a tad further in history than Reagan to find an Obama like economic policy...how about Carternomics? I don't know if the policies are identical but the fix we'll all be in will be.

Okay, so are we better off after 30 years of Carteresque affordable housing?

It doesn't look so affordable now, does it. You've got Democrat flim flam artists who pushed affordable housing and demanded lenders provide access to loans to those who had no capacity to repay, especially when real estate soured. Obama wants a return to that and then some, and surrounded himself with a bunch of Fannie and Freddie -involved individuals who led us down this path to financial craziness.

Still, consider what's happened over the past eight years, and you're still better off than when Bush entered office. It just doesn't feel like you're doing better especially when the media keeps talking like this is the second coming of the Great Depression (or worse).

Not the Information Age, my friends.

Sort of like ACORN accusing McCain of trying to commit voter fraud and suppression. We are living in times of Alice in Wonderland.

McCain HAS TO start putting the blame for the Credit Crisis directly on the Democrats doorstep.

The irony is amazing. A candidate that has the same ideals as Carter is using the same line that cost Carter the election.

OT

Palin and the Pope
Sarah Palin is invited to meet with the Pope while he is vacationing in Venice.

The liberal press reluctantly watches the semi-private audience, hoping they will be able to allot minimal coverage, if any.

The Pope asks Governor Palin to join him on a Gondola ride through the canals of Venice.

They're admiring the sights and agreeing on moral issues when, all of a sudden, the Pope's hat (zucchetto) blows off his head and out into the water.

The gondolier starts to reach for the Pontiff's cap with his pole, but this move threatens to overturn the floating craft.

Sarah waves the tour guide off, saying, 'Wait, wait. I'll take care of this. Don't worry.'

She steps off the gondola onto the surface of the water and walks out to the Pope's hat, bends over and picks it up. She walks back across the water to the gondola and steps aboard. She hands the hat to the Pope amid stunned silence.

The next morning the topic of conversation among Democrats in Congress, CBS News, NBC News, ABC News, CNN, the New York Times, Hollywood celebrities, and in France and Germany is:
'Palin Can't Swim.'

re: #20 arethusa

Reagan always said "America's best days are ahead of her." Obama has never said that.

And I'm certain RR never envisioned a person of Obama's ilk and dislike of America would ever get this close to the Presidency.

Lets see now, you are going to modify contracts after the fact. Boy is that going to bring out the private capital to lend to people to buy their homes. The only game in town is going to be the FHA, FNM and FRE. It may be enlightened self interest for a mortgage lender to do a workout with somebody in default, but to do this as a command economy will make people think twice before they loan money in the future. What's next? A freeze on auto repossessions? A freeze on loans to companies that get into trouble? While it is possible to make such a freeze a condition of getting government assistance, a mandated from the gods on high freeze is probably prohibited by the takings clause in the Constitution. You remember the Constitution? Its the one that says a lot of things. Property was very important to the founders. Although we have had some really crap decisions like Keno, it is doubtful that a freeze on foreclosures except as a condition of assistance from the government to the institution making the loan would pass Constitutional muster.

Even if you aren't better off today than you were four weeks ago, none of that has anything to do with McCain. Again, someone needs to remind The One that he isn't running against George W. Bush.

Reagan said:

How do you tell a communist? Well, it's someone who reads Marx and Lenin. And how do you tell an anti-Communist? It's someone who understands Marx and Lenin.

Then there is Obama

And it's not surprising (in economic hard times) they get bitter, they cling to guns or religion

who paraphrases Marx

"Religion is an opiate of the masses."

A helpful apologist explains what Marx meant.

According to Marx, religion is used to make people feel better about the distress they experience due to being poor and exploited.

Uh, we understood that. He sees religion as something people use to distract themselves or others from the economic miseries now. So does Obama.

Not that it'll matter to the B0-peeps, but Stanley Kurtz has another article about Obama's ties to the New Party.

We already know that Obama’s ties to ACORN’s Madeline Talbott ran deep. Less known is that Obama’s links to Chicago ACORN/New Party leader Ted Thomas were also strong. Thomas was one of a handful of aldermen who stood with Obama in his unsuccessful 2000 race for Congress against Bobby Rush.

We were all focusing so much on Biden's prediction of an international crisis in the last thread, here's another quote from the same speech:

"Because I promise you, you all are gonna be sitting here a year from now going, 'Oh my God, why are they there in the polls? Why is the polling so down? Why is this thing so tough?' We're gonna have to make some incredibly tough decisions in the first two years. So I'm asking you now, I'm asking you now, be prepared to stick with us. Remember the faith you had at this point because you're going to have to reinforce us."

So Biden predicts mass unpopularity for an Obama administration. Gee. Wonder why?/

Yes, I am.

In the 1980 presidential election, former California Gov. Ronald Reagan trailed President Jimmy Carter by 8 points in a late October Gallup poll. A mere 10 days after that survey was conducted, Reagan defeated the incumbent president by nearly 3 percentage points, sealing one of the biggest turnarounds in the history of American presidential politics.

I believe he beat him by far more than three points, though.

This story also draws the Reagan-Obama comparison. How could we all have missed it?

Exactly. Even by merely suggesting this, Obama probably sent a panic through the banking industry.

Step by step we are indeed headed for "universal public housing" (i.e. Soviet/Maoism style in which the government owns all homes) under the Obama plan: nationalize the banks, then cancel all foreclosures. Eventually, the government will essentially have ownership of all/most homes in the US, and the occupants therein will have stopped paying mortgages or rent.

Sorta like the "council estates" in England. And you know how peachy-keen those are.

I don't think Obama hypnotizes anyone. There are a lot of people out there who find thinking to be an intolerable burden, and they are delighted to find a leader who relieves them of it.

US: Russia not complying with Georgia cease-fire
Published: 10.20.08, 18:05 / Israel News
Russia is violating a European Union-brokered cease-fire by maintaining troops in two disputed Georgian territories, US Undersecretary of State Daniel Fried said Monday.

"The cease-fire accord that President Sarkozy negotiated requires that all the Russian armed forces withdraw to their positions before the outbreak of hostilities," Fried said. "The Russians have not done so, and therefore they are not in compliance with the cease-fire." (AP)

Biden Admits Obama is Unprepared for International Crisis - Time for That Primetime Event

I believe he beat him by far more than three points, though.

This story also draws the Reagan-Obama comparison. How could we all have missed it?

But then they (CNN) go on to liken McCain to Carter, and Obama to Reagan:

But if 2008 is at all like 1980, it's Obama who is Ronald Reagan, not McCain.

Reagan was the relatively fresh face in the 1980 race, painstakingly portrayed by Democrats as ill-equipped for the Oval Office. That portrayal largely stuck, until Reagan and the unpopular President Carter faced off in a presidential debate only days before Election Day.

In that debate, the affable Reagan came off as the competent and polished candidate in the race, while Carter came off as off-balance, weak and even un-presidential. It was a devastating performance for an incumbent president already mired in low approval ratings.

Colin Powell believes Obama will bring harmony.

But he is not harmonious with his own son.

Colin Powell splits with son over White House race

Colin Powell’s endorsement of Barack Obama, the Democratic nominee, has put him at odds with his own son, former Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Chairman Michael Powell.

Michael Powell, who served as a policy adviser to Vice President Dick Cheney, is a surrogate for John McCain and represents the GOP nominee on the campaign trail.

re: #150 lumpy

I agree about the half hour buy (I assume money is the problem), though I've also heard that McCain ads will be saturating the airwaves the last 10 days or so in swing states, and (less believable) that Obama may have made the buy because by then he'll largely be off the air. We'll see.

I think actually this would be good for future elections: let the networks give each candidate a half-hour of prime time a few days before the election. It beats the heck out of a debate as boring as debate #2, at least.

Exactly. Even by merely suggesting this, Obama probably sent a panic through the banking industry.

Step by step we are indeed headed for "universal public housing" (i.e. Soviet/Maoism style in which the government owns all homes) under the Obama plan: nationalize the banks, then cancel all foreclosures. Eventually, the government will essentially have ownership of all/most homes in the US, and the occupants therein will have stopped paying mortgages or rent.

Sorta like the "council estates" in England. And you know how peachy-keen those are.

The headline is clearly not implying in any way that Obama will be "heir to Reaganomics" or that Obama's economic policies are like Reagan's or that Obama is claiming anything like that. The headline is perfectly fine headline for the news it reports, of Obama's clever little "update" of Reagan's famous line.

If they go after Wright, they again need to go after the ideology and not just the association. Saying 'racist church' in an ad will not resonate as well as 'Any God that loves whites, must be murdered' will, and that is from the man that Wright himself told us to go read up on, to allay our fears over his Church. They never should have considered Wright off-limits. It is so incredibly relevant, and incredibly damaging because obviously the Obama campaign never had a handle on dealing with the man himself.

Halloween costume idea: squirrel suits, and have the kids paint "I can haz ACORNS" on white pillowcases?

breathtaking doublespeak by the politicians in the article, but I love the squirrel.

Did I hear correctly ...... FOX just said MEchelle's role in the white house would be to help relations with miltary families .......... WTF .......

Put me down for opting out of that one!

So which is it? The MSM loves Reaganomics and Obama is a Reaganite? Or Reaganomics is "trickle-down" injustice and Obama is the antidote?

Sweet Jesus, the same guy who was screaming about VA over at Ace's place. Begone creep.

I'll trade VA for PA any day, thanks so much.

And I do hope that when Obama becomes president, he flushes Reaganomics down the toilet, where it belongs.

Please define "Reaganomics" and explain why it belongs down the toilet.

Catholics getting in gear ...... not sure I have seen them this active before .....they been bringing it on at my parish .......

I've met Fr. Pavone on a couple of occasions, and a friend of ours used to work for him.

Here in Dallas, the bishops of the Dallas diocese and the Ft. Worth diocese jointly published a statement on Catholics voting in accordance with church teaching. which caused a lot of heartburn for pro-abort Catholics here (there were even picketers in front of the chancery in Dallas last Tuesday).

We were at the vigil Mass on Saturday evening, and our priest (who we suspect is really a liberal) spoke about it (he only read an excerpt, not the whole thing), and then took questions. The only question was from an old battleaxe who started going on about comparing "one candidate who's anti-abortion, but pro-death penalty, and pro-war, pro-war-for-profit" with one who's pro-choice, but for ending war", blah, blah, blah.

re: #230 Mr. Sandman

Uh, are you deliberately trying to misinterpret basic sentences to rile people up on an irrational basis against Obama and the "media"? The headline is clearly not implying in any way that Obama will be "heir to Reaganomics" or that Obama's economic policies are like Reagan's or that Obama is claiming anything like that. The headline is perfectly fine headline for the news it reports, of Obama's clever little "update" of Reagan's famous line.

And I do hope that when Obama becomes president, he flushes Reaganomics down the toilet, where it belongs.

Damn skippy! Let the government collect most of the bucks and spend it in a far wiser manner than we are capable of. Why should a free market be responsible for allowing money to spread throughout the economy?
After all, there is only a certain amount of wealth and if the rich guys have it all, then nobody else can have any.
Do I need to?

That sentiment is exactly what Obama and his ilk are about. That's why you are so detested by those who know you and your kind.

Well, the trouble with our liberal friends is not that they're ignorant; it's just that they know so much that isn't so.

That would be the unadulterated truth in this political season.

Libbies create so many premises that are simply not true.......then they use the old media to further those premises...........

The Republicans knew years ago that the main strategy of the Democrats would be to link the Republican candidate to Bush. They should be emphasizing that both candidates are currently Senators and compare and contrast their time in the Senate.

re: #180 arethusa

Tapper says McCain will attack on Biden's comments this afternoon.

BTW, Tapper's lead story is that the McCain campaign is reconsidering using Wright against Obama.

No one get too excited, though...

I hope so. After this weekend's NYT times hit piece on Cindy McCain and the fact that the reporter tried to use teenagers to get dirt and Obama didn't come out and denounce them and say again that "families are off limits", it definitely should be an issue. In fact - as I've said before - McCain needs to do a commercial showing ALL of Obama's sketchy relationships, from Frank Marshall Davis to Ayers to Wright to Pflegler to Rezko to well, this list goes on and on.

Colin Powell’s endorsement of Barack Obama has put him at odds with his own son, former Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Chairman Michael Powell.

Go figure. Press? Anyone? Anyone out there in the media?

Colin Powell's son also works for McCain's campaign.
