Fannie & Freddie – Bonnie & Clyde Style
Another home-run by our favorite political cartoonist, Michael Ramirez at Investor’s Business Daily. A picture is definitely worth 1,000 words.
Enjoy!

Tonight on Bill O’Reilly, John Kerry was on to discuss the bailout bill that failed today. John Kerry had the BALLS to suggest that he had been calling for regulation of Fannie & Freddie since 2004! Where is John Kerry in this exchange? You have GOT to be kidding me! Approximately 20 million listeners heard Rush Limbaugh not just talk about it today, but he played clips from the very popular YouTube video of the hearings on Fannie Mae & Freddie Mac from 2004.
It takes an incredible about of hubris to do this crap on national television. Unbelievable.
You can watch sKerry out-and-out lie to the nation here.
Just a few moments ago, Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid, Barney Frank and Chris Dodd (all members of the Gang of Financial Failure), came out to speak about their response to the proposed bill by Secretary Paulson.
Here’s a portion of the appearance, which I transcribed myself:
As members of the Democrat party, it is our responsibility to come here and blame everything bad that happens on President Bush and his administration. It’s also our responsibility to make you think that John McCain has been his Vice President these last 7 and a half years. However, we will defer that issue for our next crisis. So to continue, we undertook what we had to because everything that happened in this crisis shows a failure in the Bush administration, and the failure of that administration is all Bush’s fault. Because Bush has failed on every level imaginable, and on other levels we just make up ourselves, you can clearly see we did what we had to do because it was Bush’s fault. Now, if Bush would have taken the responsibility, he should have allowed the Democrats to run everything, and then we could come to an agreement that the successes in his administration would be attributable to the Democrats, but the failures would still be attributed to President Bush. And so in closing, I would just like to take one last moment in this appearance to remind you that this is all President Bush’s fault through the failures of his administration.

You can watch the hypocrisy unfold here.
Folks, I can’t say it any better than the video shows. I am so pissed it is beyond belief. This is from a hearing where all the Democrats are attacking the regulator who was testifying about the problems at Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac in 2004.

SEND THIS TO EVERYONE YOU KNOW! THIS IS BEYOND IMAGINATION!
Listen. I’ve been reading up and watching all the coverage about this financial mess we’re in right now, and it really reminds me a whole lot of another tragic event that happened not too long ago: Hurricane Katrina hitting New Orleans, Louisiana. The only difference between the two is the actual physical damage that took place during Katrina. However, dismissing that one fact, both issues are nearly identical. And I’ll tell you why. Both disasters were borne of the same things:
• The poor, “dis-enfranchised” people were such a loud voice that powers in both the Louisiana Democrat government, as well as the Federal Government, were forced to give them handouts they really didn’t deserve, nor could they qualify for.
• People could not or would not take care of themselves, so the race- and class-warfare warlords went to battle on their behalf, forcing the governments to provide for them in the name of “social justice.”
• The citizens who participated in these government-controlled hand-out programs knew they couldn’t afford these houses or their lifestyles, but they took them anyway. Why not? The rest of the taxpayers would foot the bills, so why should they care?
• The race wardlords and poverty pimps of this country besieged the government to “do the right thing” and give people things they didn’t deserve nor could they repay. If the government didn’t, they would be forever publicly hounded and called heartless racists.
• And even though the government knew they couldn’t or wouldn’t repay what was given them, they did it anyway to appear benevolent and appease the class-warfare mouthpieces.
• Lastly, we are going to be paying for both for a long time to come.
In the end, everybody suffers. So this is a lose/lose situation. Free-market capitalism is the only thing that works. The “great society,” welfare and socialism will kill this great country as we know it. So with that in mind, you must vote for McCain/Palin ‘08 to keep the American dream alive, but be realistic. If you can’t afford it, don’t take out a loan for it. And if you don’t need it, don’t try to acquire it. I believe like Boortz does: we should stand at the building entrance to all welfare offices and confiscate cell phones. If you can afford a cell phone, then you don’t need welfare. Enough of this bullshit scamming off of the government (read = responsible society as a whole).
I’ve posted about this before, but someone shared a link with me today that really rocked my world. This video, even though it is almost 10 minutes long, really needs to be watched. It’s a very well compiled piece about the genesis of our current crisis. Check it out and PLEASE share this with all your friends. It’s called “Burning Down The House: What Caused Our Economic Crisis?,” and the original version was yanked from YouTube. However, the poster of the video has given us a new version, which is now below.
PLEASE, for the sake of our nation FORWARD THIS TO EVERYONE! An election season of Hope-o-crisy is all we can afford.
