Comments on: Vets for McCain and Lalor http://polhudson.lohudblogs.com/2008/10/06/vets-for-mccain-and-lalor/ Sun, 21 Mar 2010 04:18:47 -0400 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.4 hourly 1 By: ed1 http://polhudson.lohudblogs.com/2008/10/06/vets-for-mccain-and-lalor/comment-page-1/#comment-39797 ed1 Wed, 08 Oct 2008 23:24:06 +0000 http://polhudson.lohudblogs.com/2008/10/06/vets-for-mccain-and-lalor/#comment-39797 Well, I'm talking, of course, of the money-movers, the "street guys," money managers, (the Wall St. people,) not Joe SIx-Pack. These guys are way ahead of the curve as to how the market responds to rumor and projection, and they know that a 35-40% capital gains rate impedes capital investment and input, further restricting the possibility of a market recovery. Until they know what will happen (and who will be elected) they will not invest and gamble with big dollars to be bullied into sharing the possible gains, and forced to stand alone with the probable losses. Take this to the bank, if you can find one still in earnest operation. Well, I’m talking, of course, of the money-movers, the “street guys,” money managers, (the Wall St. people,) not Joe SIx-Pack.

And people wonder why the market is sinking, despite all the "bail-out" money and other imposed remedies? The "street." or what's left of it, has no confidence in this scenario. Two plus two, folks.

Having said all that..Sarah Palin will never be the president its always been class warfare in this country…those
who think they deserve more have always been critical
of those who earn more through ownership or investment
its a basic jelousy of the wealthy by those who are not
but its now going to become not only jelousy but a
concerted effort to redistribute income and wealth..
however I have been preparing for this for some time
the handwriting was on the wall…people were living
way above their means and figured that the small
number of high end taxpayers who pay the lion share
of the taxes would eventually pick up the tab..thats
why barney and raines and clinton all had no problem
encouraging people who could not afford to buy a home
to do just that…there is no shame in renting…if
thats what you can afford….in fact there are many
benefits..including NOT TAKING ANY RISK…however
guys like barney frank thought that in their infinite
wisdom…housing ownership was a right..one that you
didn’t necessarily have to earn..so just sign on the
dotted line ..nothing down…no verifiable income
a mortgage that you afford for one or two years before
it trippled..etc…so we in essence got what we deserved
a total crippling of the credit markets…based on the
rotten loans that underpinned the markets…sure there
were greedy mortgage lenders..and bankers..and investment
bankers who created these exotic instruments but in the
end ..if the policy of the government had been to only
permit lending to those whose credit, income and assets
justified the loan none of this would have ever happened
thank you liberal democrats for literally undermining
the entire financial underpinnings of the world.
Having said all that..Sarah Palin will never be the
president

Given that the Consultant supported Romney for VP, I fail to see the distinction and have trouble fathoming why he has no problem with Romney but does with Palin. Unlike Mormanism (which I have no problem with either), Palin’s church doesn’t have mandatory missions to seek converts.

I have no problem with anyone trying to change my religion as long as they take no for an answer and are not annoying about i.e. Jehovah’s witnesses.

More specifically, Governor Palin was in attendance when the visiting executive director of Jews for Jesus preached that Palestinian terrorism which murders and maims Israeli civilians is God's punishment of the Jews for not accepting Jesus. Governor Palin's pastor followed this sermon with a collection for Jews for Jesus and prayed that God would make their work of bringing Jews to Jesus successful. although a secular jew I have grave reservations about anyone whose mission is to change anyone elses religions.. jim I would like you to explain the following:

Jeanine was never suited for the senate run...not her field of expertise...law enforcement was but it didn't seem to matter to kieran..my answer to the poster was to correct the misimpression that anything that pirro did was something i was involved in..not true and hasn't been for 25 years when she first ran for family court...people seem to be obsessed with jeanine even though now she is an actor on a reality show.. even last week sam zherka and richard blassberg picketed CW11..because of the jeffrey descovic case..and other issues they STILL HAVE with her..whats intersting about that group is they skewer jeanine for not allowing the DNA review for Descovic but they give no credit to DI FIORE for allowing it and his ultimate release thats because they are interested in controlling the DA's office through their proxy tony castro Kieran ran her for the senate because he thought there would
