    Since when is capital communal? Maybe if they weren't forced to buy up bad loans the market wouldn't have crumbled.

    ACORN and the Thuggish Dems had their Gats on those poor bankers heads, and forced them to do something they didnt want to do.

    So what i'm hearing is that there is a lot of ethnic cleansing and religious motivated killings going on in Iraq, and some of this is credited with why the surge worked. It seems very likely that the US might have to go back in there.

    Yeah there are satellite images showing mass exoduses into the neighboring countries. The Surge didn't work, it just moved the problem to the other countries.
    I have a friend that bought a bunch of land in Jordan, right when the Iraq war started. He then sold the land at 10times the amount he paid to Rich Oil Iraqis. He now has a 4 Story mansion in Jordan thanks to the Iraq war.

    So yea, earlier in the thread I mentioned how my stepmother was trying to get a McCain/Palin sign to put in our yard, even though she's the only one who's OMFGREPUBLICAN.

    Well, apparently she decided to do it anyway even though my father and I don't want a sign on the yard.

    Pics to follow of the defamation once I get my hands on a big marker or spraypaint.

    also worth noting that this huffpo piece does have direct quotes and it's widely known that Timmons is in fact being tapped by the McCain camp.

    ANCHORAGE, Alaska (AP) -- Sarah Palin unlawfully abused her power as governor by trying to have her former brother-in-law fired as a state trooper, the chief investigator of an Alaska legislative panel concluded Friday. The politically charged inquiry imperiled her reputation as a reformer on John McCain's Republican ticket.
    Obama is up to 95% win chance on fivethirtyeight now haha

    Sen. McCain Stood With ACORN Rally In 2006


    13 Oct 2008 09:28 pm
    A goldfish's lifetime ago, Sen. John McCain was happy to accept the honors and acclamation of the Service Employees International Union, People for the American Way, UNITE HERE -- and ACORN. Here he is, on Feb. 20, 2006, telling immigration rights activists at a rally in Miami that they "are what makes America special." ACORN co-sponsored the rally, and its volunteers surround McCain, and while there's no evidence that McCain ever formally teamed with the group, the video serves as a reminder that he did not mind being associated with them when the politics of the moment were different. (The video clip was e-mailed to this column by a Democrat who supports Barack Obama.)

    http://marcambinder.theatlantic.com/...o_sen_john.php

    It's important to know, as you watch this, that ACORN was, to Republican field operatives, a Dirty Word in 2006...and in 2004, but general awareness among politicians and activists of what it does was limited to those who had to deal with its voter registration efforts. See here. (A clue: they were part of the America Coming Together consortium in 2004...that should have been a clue as to their ideological leanings.)

    A few weeks ago, House Republicans screamed bloody murder when it appeared as if ACORN would benefit from the bailout bill, although McCain, President Bush and House Republicans have supported legislation with similar provisions before and they spent billions on the Road Home project, which contracts with ACORN to help provide housing for Katrina refugees. (You can't say...ah, but ACORN wasn't suspected of doing anything bad earlier... you can't say that because ACORN has been doing what ACORN is accused of doing for several cycles now.)

    In 2008, of course, ACORN has become a stand-in not only for the registration fraud allegations, but also for the coincident insinuations that Sen. Obama and his liberal allies are trying to steal the election in battleground states. Indeed, because "ACORN" has become a national political issue, it will be hard for Republicans to use it as a political wedge issue. Once an attack is associated with a party, it doesn't become an attack; it becomes part of party dogma and can service only party activists.

    McCain had no trouble fraternizing with ACORN in 2006 when their political interests coincided with his. Now, his campaign is writing e-mails in his name bashing ACORN as a tool of the Obama machine.
