		<description>Our financial and banking crises started, not under President Bush, but under President Clinton in the early 1990s when the US housing boom started and exploding housing prices led to dubious lending practices. All of this happened while our nation incurred bigger and bigger deficits and debts. But any good dinner will and does come to an end. Now we are all paying for those joy years when we all live on plastics beyond our means.</description>

		<description>Ok we&#039;ve got both their responses to the banking crisis.  Even if you don&#039;t agree with Obama at least you have an idea of what his plan is to address the issue.  I have yet to understand or get a REAL response as to how McCain is going to adress the economic issue. What is your plan McCain/Palin on the economy, education, healthcare...what is your plan?</description>

		<description>OK John McCain, &quot;We&#039;re gonna reform the way Wall Street does business;  we&#039;re gonna do this; we&#039;re gonna do that.&quot;  Now tell me how.  You&#039;re short on details and specifics.  I am tired of hearing your heroic military narrative Senator McCain.  Yes, I do respect your service to this country, but how does this translate into mending our broken economy, our inequitable education  system, sky-rocketting tuition costs, and paying teachers what they are worth?  As an educator, I know all too well how many children have been left behind under your buddy&#039;s (the President&#039;s name you refuse to call) No child Left Behind plan.  These are the issues I care about as an American, but you have not even begun to address them.</description>

		<description>Is John McCain the Republican nominee, or is he an independent? There already is a democratic nominee, last time I checked. What party does he thinks he is running for? If he wants the power of the  Republican party behind him  he also  has to take responsibility for what the  Republican party and its last nominee did over the last 8 years: shred the US economy at every level. He cannot have it both ways.</description>

		<description>Why are so many people afraid of having an educated, intelligent president for a CHANGE.

Obama taught constitutional law.  There are future lawyers and law makers who have been influence by this man.   There are people who will understand and uphold the constitution because of this man.

America wake up!  Stop lingering in ignorance.  That is not going to help the economy.</description>

		<description>And McCain is going to solve this problem, how? He is a part of the problem; he voted for Bush&#039;s policies and intends to continue them. I&#039;m with the guy who says that he&#039;d rather pay more taxes honestly than suffer to consequences we&#039;ve seen with these failed policies. Trickle down doesn&#039;t work, has never worked, and will never work. If you looks closely, you will see this is true.

How can McCain claim to know anything about this? He&#039;s wealthy in his own right, is married to a woman who has no better sense in these times of trouble than wear $300,000 worth of clothing and jewels at a campaign event, and doesn&#039;t even know how many homes he has. Most of us would like to see $300,000 for a year of hard work (and aren&#039;t likely to), and would like to be able to afford to keep our homes. And Palin? A mayor that left a town that had been prosperous in the red when she left office, made rape victims pay for their own rape kits (talk about victimizing the victims!), and who charged the Alaskan people $707 a night to stay in her own home?

Wake up, America! Do you really think that a $300 &quot;economic stimulus&quot; check is worth more than encouraging our business and industries to keep jobs here in the US? Is better than encouraging windfall profits and golden parachutes for executives making more money than you can ever dream of seeing?</description>

		<description>LOOK LIKE THE DEMOCRATS ARE GOING TO LOSE ANOTHER ONE.

AMERICANS WILL NOT VOTE FOR OBAMA, HE IS A EMPTY SUIT.

OBAMA, SHOULD HAVE CHOSEN HILLARY, BAD JUDGEMENT ON YOUR PART.

TAX THE RICH, WHAT A JOKE, NO ONE BELEAVES THAT.

AUTOMATIC SURRENDER, AMERICANS WILL NOT GO FOR THAT.

LARGER GOVERMENT AND LESS FREEDOM, NOT FOR AMERICANS.

WONDER WHO THE PERSON THAT DOES THE TELE-PROMPTERS FOR OBAMA?

LETS HAVE SOME REAL DEBATES, WHAT YOU SCARED OF OBAMA?

LETS HAVE SOME DRILLING FOR OUR OIL, COME ON DEMOCRATS, DO YOU HEAR AMERICANS NOW NANCY?

		<description>Does Obama know that this meltdown is a due to companies giving mortgages to people they shouldn&#039;t?  You know, kind of like the one Obama has on his own home.  That doesn&#039;t have anything to do with Bush.  Its the vile, greedy people who run the companies.  Like Obama&#039;s good friend.</description>

		<description>Well, of course John McCain would use the word &quot;reform&quot; in his canned comments, because his V.P. pick is the &quot;reform&quot; Governor of Alaska and together they will &quot;reform&quot;  Washington, &quot;reform&quot; Wall Street&quot;, blah, blah, blah.  This from a guy whose been in Washington for YEARS and contributed to the mess he now claims he will &quot;reform&quot;!!!

He hasn&#039;t &quot;changed&quot; a thing in all the years he&#039;s been in Washington.  He hasn&#039;t &quot;reformed&quot; a thing in all the years he&#039;s been in Washington.  But now, because he wants to win a presidential election, he claims he will &quot;change&quot; and &quot;reform&quot; like a man on fire!

It&#039;s unbelievable!!</description>

		<description>&lt;b&gt;&quot;...Washington...was not minding the store.&quot;&lt;/b&gt;

May I point out that Washington &lt;i&gt;was&lt;/i&gt; minding the store for Fannie and Freddie--and &lt;i&gt;they&lt;/i&gt; collapsed.  Obama seems to have this childish notion that you can always trust government to do the right thing, and never trust any organisation--or individual, for that matter--outside of government.

The truth of the matter is that you can&#039;t really trust &lt;i&gt;any&lt;/i&gt; large organisation.  Big companies lie, cheat, and steal for profit.  Big government lies, cheats, and steals out of an arrogant, self-righteous, sense of it&#039;s own infallibility.

Power corrupts, and it doesn&#039;t matter in the slightest whether it&#039;s the economic power of a company or the civil power of a government.  At least, most companies you can decide not to do business with them.  When was the last time anyone in the U.S. got away with deciding not to do business with a government?  1776?</description>

		<description>Carol for McCain: What does earmarking have to do with this situation? Earmarks aren&#039;t even a bad thing? That&#039;s what I think people have confused: its not a bad thing to request and take earmarks, its a bad thing when you say your against earmarks and you took the most. Get a clue.

Also, this whole &quot;reformist&quot; thing is crap. How are they going to &quot;reform&quot; DC and Wall Street with the same economic policies that have been in place? I&#039;m not saying Obama&#039;s the economic Christ, but he&#039;s got something different. They&#039;re both deep in the pockets of wall street so don&#039;t expect much house cleaning on either end. Focus on policies, not promises.</description>

		<description>The jist of McCains statement was that the financial industry needs to be reformed and the oversite increased and that the Government has been wrong in not watching close enough.  

That doesn&#039;t matter to people like &quot;Todd from Lancaster. PA&quot;.  who says that McCain ignores the administrations role in this.  Just like so many of Obama bloggers.  Ignore what the man said and try to make him look bad by insinuating the opposite.  

Also, weren&#039;t the Dems in chrage of Congress the last two years? What did they do to rein in the financial industry?  Nothing.  They couldn&#039;t even get a bill out of committee to reign in the Banking Industries criminal preditory lending policies.  

I like his statement, &quot;Get a clue.&quot;  Maybe he should take his own advice.</description>

		<description>How can a part which does not want any more regulations/govt. involvment reform the Wall street. It needs to be left for its own correction and bring the small investors on to the roads. If you let this small govt. to regulation be taken to the extreme, this is what will happen. So just keep thinking of this when ever you hear from our republican friends small govt. and no regulation. It should be right size of the govt. with a good vizil/policing with right regulations.</description>

		<description>Last week was spent talking about lipstick and pigs, when this country is in danger. America, keep your eye on the ball!!. How many times are you going to have tough issues staring you in the face and you choose the low road. WAR, ECONOMY and HEALTHCARE. Everything else is just noise. Shiny little distractions to get your mind off the fact that a priveleged few are robbing this country blind and getting away with it. We elected Dubbwa not once but twice. Yes we may be in a &quot;mental recession&quot; I think America took an mental vacation on the last two presidential races

		<description>Lisa M, Capatilism is the reason why we are in the financial position we are today.  Current regulations and oversight have too many loop holes for die hard capitalist to take advantage of.  The collapse of the housing market was a shear demonstration on  the amount of greed that can be yielded through capatilism.  You see that not 1 or 2 global investment banks fell but numerous IB&#039;s fell along with the entire financial housing system.  The entire structure has to now to be reformed because of failing home owners buying homes they couldn&#039;t afford, mortgage companies providing un-fit loans, and even down to the Real Estate agents selling these homes to people that they knew they couldn&#039;t afford it.  In the Investment Banking world if a financial advisor or broker solicited a customer and placed then into an investment that was clearly unsuitable for that customer they would be fined and stripped of their license.  Why is that the same rules don&#039;t apply to shady mortgage brokers that got people into mortgages that are clearly unsuitable to that individual based on their income and affordability.  

Capatilism is the problem and unless we get our capitalist economy under control we are just going to create another bubble to throw our money into in hopes of yielding bigger returns at higher risks and end up in the same prediciment over and over again.</description>

		<description>It is a pretty simple choice here...

Obama speaks, with specific plans on what he would like to accomplish. With specifics, and references.

McCain, has already told you that economics are not his strong point. He does not specify anything in his plan. When he talks about the economy it is nothing that an average economics 101 student could talk about, or someone who has read the morning newspaper. Do you know why? Because he is not proposing any changes to the incredibly poor policies and economic climate that brought us here.

Both parties economic plans have been reviewed by economists. Obama&#039;s is better for the country, and of the two has the only chance of changing what has been a slow and increasing 8yr financial disaster - not just for the markets, but for the average american.

Do your research. Read. Learn. It is OK to not know something, there are smarter people and lot&#039;s of resources that will help you. Don&#039;t pretend to know, know.

		<description>Bush, with McCain&#039;s backing, relaxed regulations and didn&#039;t even inforce the ones we have, run away greed is now being felt on Wall St.
Now the home foreclosure problems are coming back to the people who caused it....let them all go into bankruptcy.  Do not bail out investors and stockholders who made their money by greed and inflicting pain on the American people.  They made their beds, let them die in it!</description>

		<description>The Economic problems we are facing will not be solved overnight but with Obama as President I believe he will tackle the problems one at a time to turn them around .
McSame will do nothing because he has no real idea how the economy works.</description>

		<description>One more issue to weigh that McCain-Palin will be avoiding. There will be a lot of detailed and technical opinions given explaining why America’s financial industry is in chaos but there really are only two reasons, simply greed and government neglect.  Everything else is just a distraction from recognizing those two issues and to avoid laying the blame where it rightfully belongs.  The run away greed by factions of the market, unchecked, uncontrolled and in fact encouraged by a government placating and patronizing Special Interests and a select few allowed this to happen and now the average American will pay the bill in so very many ways.  The government’s responsibility is to protect the people yet our government focuses on allowing the market place to run free without adequate checks and balances, actually with encouragement for the full pursuit of their greed and with no concern for protecting the people’s interests.  We have seen this occur several times with savings and loans, with banks, with hi-tech, now with investment banks and there have been other occasions, always the same, with the cycle of insatiable run away greed and then with government only acting after it is too late.  The government rationalizes that they are facilitating free markets but in reality, as we have just seen again, they are being irresponsible for the benefit of a few and costing us greatly.  We have an election coming and hopefully people will think of this when voting.</description>

		<description>More than anyone else, the current financial crisis is the fault of John McCain&#039;s good friend former Senator Phil Gramm, who famously said earlier this year that we&#039;re in merely a &quot;mental recession&quot; and that America is a &quot;nation of whiners.&quot; Gramm was the father of the Enron Loophole and of the banking sector deregulation that led inexorably to the current meltdown. This wasn&#039;t an accident: downturns like this are the inevitable result of the Republicans&#039; idiotic fiscal policies.

Although Gramm was forced to relinquish his official title as a McCain campaign co-chair after his unwise &quot;whiner&quot; remarks, he continues to be a major economic adviser to McCain and campaign insiders have said he remains a likely choice for Secretary of the Treasury should McCain win the election. That prospect should make everyone shudder.</description>

John may be a war hero but he isn&#039;t exactly fair, transparent or uncorrupt. And Palin is scary in all the same areas.

		<description>The US financial markets are collapsing right before our eyes. Who’s to blame? The Corporations and their the lobbyist, the George W. Bush Administration and the Republican Congress, with their agenda of what ever the corporation wants we will give them.  We allowed these BOZOs to give financial institutions and corporations numerous ways to cheat, hide, and lie about what they were doing, and now they have just about destroyed the one thing that keeps this country strong, the economy.  

The economy runs on money, without money there is no military, without the military we are not protected, without protection no investment, without investments no jobs, without jobs no money, without money no economy.  Get it? 

And don’t go blaming the current Congress; it takes more than twenty months of stupidity to cause the financial markets to collapse.

Remember most Americans are at the bottom of the financial pyramid, remember trickle down, the Republican theory for the economy? Worried? It’s about money and I am guessing you don’t have much?  Because if you did would you be worrying about how you will afford to put gas in your car next week, afford the gallon of milk for breakfast for your kids, or how many coupons for BOGOs can you find.   If you are wealthy, above $603,000.00 a year, you might be concerned with how to make more money during this horrible economic disaster, but not about feeding your family and yourself, or fixing the car if it breaks down, or losing the lousy job you have.

George W. Bush is the leader of these BOZOs and now you want to elect John McCain for 4 more years,  another BOZO? I would say that makes you a BOZO too

 Hey BOZOs! the economy makes everything else possible.

NO
Bush/McCain Economics 
Offering 
Zero 
Opportunities</description>

		<description>I&#039;m with Lisa M in that it isn&#039;t completely the government&#039;s fault but at the same time what was done exactly to promote transparency and fair markets? Republicans tote the capitalist mantra but their corruption and greed has obliterated our economic system.

Hey thanks! Vote McCain and Palin if you love fascist tyranny and bold face lies!!</description>

		<description>Carol...John McCain is so GREEDY that he has chosen a woman who&#039;s completely inept to be his number two.  Make no mistake, Sarah Palin&#039;s only job is to distract the less intelligent voter with her folksy hocky-mom act.

This country will burn in hell if John McCain is elected.</description>
