  • he meant to say 2 left to go + 1 can't go to + been to other 47 = 50 states....

  • Comment removed

  • Good thing we have someone like the poster of this video to point out these vital errors in geography and death tolls to truly illustrate how inept and just flat out wrong in every possible way Obama is. It's these type of mistakes in speaking at the literally hundreds and hundreds of recorded speeches Obama made on the campaign trail while enduring a brutal stump traveling schedule that show how bad of a president he is. Additionally, i commend the absolutely brilliant move of comparing, for e

  • Man, Obama doesn't make nearly as many as funny gaffs as George Bush does. We want Georgey back!

  • Great gaffes, true, but they're just not that funny. They're just kind of mundane. Now, the truth is, when Bush gaffed, well, now, let's all be honest now: it was funny. He always had that clued-out look, that cocky swagger that only made it funnier. Republican, Democrat, Left, Right, it doesn't matter. We as a nation can peaceably come together and appreciate #43 for his many years of service and hilarity. There will never be anyone quite like him.

  • @gavrilo2007 I'll drink to that, I voted for Bush myself, didnt vote for Obama, but good comment, you

  • He is so full of shit!

    Nothing but a closet muslim lying bastard.

    It's a damn shame the first black prez had to be such a complete piece of shit.

  • Lets record YOUR life and see if you ever say something wrong in the middle of talking. OBAMA is a thousand times smarter than ANY man with the last name BUSH! And for ANYBODY who thinks Obama is driving the country into the ground here are FACTS that you can research yourself.

    Jan. 20, 2001 Bush becomes president Dow at 10,686

    Jan. 20, 2009 Obama beccomes president Dow is at 8279

    (8 years later and DOWN 2407!!!!!!!!!!!)

    Today, its at about 11,100

    I know who I would rather have as President!

  • You all deserve death

    Israel only deserve to live

    We hate Muslims

    Hate Christians

  • To whoever made this video, are u honestly saying that bush was an articulate, eloquent, non-gaffe machine? Cus u r fuckin retarded

  • @phish1085 LOL...priceless...Obama is a clown...enjoy your one term president....lol....that was tooo funny...

  • Visit my page for a tribute to Michelle Malkin.

  • 57 States? LOL I wonder where the other state "58" is??? LMAO!

  • I dont know about obama destroying america. I mean just imagane if goldwater went for president. This world would be nuked to hell....ww3 in 1965.

  • I think obama had to much to handle in front of 300 million people...it was a mistake!!!!! plus if he came from law school...you will already know it was a mistake and he isnt stupid.........People( MAKE MISTAKES)..some people just want to make fun of others..which I think they are stupid little kids them selfs...

  • @caspercbo

    @caspercbo

    So........ Bush spent billions of dollars and people said it was a mistake. Then came Obama and he spent trillions. Did Obama make a bigger mistake? Oh is it Bush's fault? it can't be Bush's fault if Obama is spending a trillion of dollars and Bush isn't in office.

  • @ParasiteQueen1

    okay good point. But they both spent alot of money. we now owe 12 trillion dollars. That sucks ass. Obama better do somthing. I mean if he thought it was a hard job. Why the hell would you run for president. well imagane if obama didnt run..Mccain would win.. He would have war forever...richer get richer and the poor either get poor or work there ass off.

  • 57 states oNe 2 go...HMMMM aNd you seeiN Dead Heros iN The aduience..HMMM

  • beans

  • you fucking hypocrite. first you quote reagan "government is the problem" which you obviously do not at all believe (neither did reagan). then you quote JFK "ask what you can do for your country." sorry dude but you can't have it both ways. Also, i don't think it's right to judge a president by their speaking ability, but by how many people they killed while in office. Bush killed over 1.2 million iraqi civilians, obama's killed just a few so far.

  • AnarchyRules17, Did you graduate high school yet? The statements by Reagen and Kennedy are completely agreed to each other. Power to the people, not the government. Your Obama is all about power to the government. More power to the government = socialism and eventually communism. History repeats itself.. get a clue man. P.S. Please don't curse back at me if you're going to reply, because it will only reveal you to be even more ignorant. Say something semi-intelligent that is perhaps factual

  • How exactly does Kennedey's famous line in any way at all say Power to the People? Furthermore, isn't Power to the people an anti-capitalist slogan? (hint: yes it is)

  • @AnarchyRules17

    Power to the people anti capitalist slogan? Um, no. Think about this

    Whats the opposite of power to the People....power to the government. Capitalism is all about putting the economy in the peopled hands.

    You are mislead to believe when Communists say "Power to the People" that that is what they actually mean. Communism is a complete Government monopoly over the peoples lives. It is seldom giving any power to the people. Don't let them lie to you.

  • Oh and by the way the my age has nothing to do with anything and neither does the fact that in my 81 word comment i curse once.

  • @AnarchyRules17

    Yes, Bush made some mistakes. Obama isn't....that's right, I said Obama isn't. He knows exactly what he is doing to destroy America. Printing money, cutting military funding, nationalizing healthcare, etc.

    Obama is an anti-American. Yes that's harsh; however his fiscal policies and belief of government intervention makes me believe otherwise.

    You we see what Bush DID, but look at what Obama is DOING now.

  • @ParasiteQueen1 so he works hard to get the toughest job in the world just so he can doom america? why does he want to doom america? just for his amusement? to gain more power or money (i think he already has enough of both)? is he the anti-christ or the devil or something? why would obama hate america?

  • @ParasiteQueen1 answer: he doesn't. it's absurd to say he does. he's doing his best and he's getting some important things done. i don't like him all that much either but he beats the hell out of bush and other people like that. i don't think bush hates america, but he was a terrible leader in every conceivable way. he didn't "make some mistakes." his presidency was a giant mistake. there's nothing that he did that did america any good whatsoever

  • Phenomenal speech by Bush that night. It will be remembered as one of the best

  • You actually used George Bush as an example of good public speaker. WHERE THE CRAP WERE YOU FOR THE PAST DECADE?!

  • Bush wasn't know or pushed upon Americans to be a great orator as Obama was. We all have seen Obama struggle when his trusted teleprompter goes haywire. Uhhh, ummm, ahhh. This has been shown in only 14 months of his presidency.

  • @NCMan28025

    1 Year and 3 months of this! LOL We are so much in trouble!!!!

  • at least he wasn't stupid enough to start a massive war in the wrong country

  • ...but he is stupid enough to send more soldiers in THIS war....

  • Great!! Im voting for Ron Paul in 2012. I do not like that Obama has not done more to bring the troops home and get out of the middle east..i dont like alot of things he hasnt done but to say he is dumb is outrageous (as this video implies) dumb he is not. im glad you are using your brain. good job.

  • YOU LIE!!!! lol I suppose Clinton is big retard also? Rhodes scholar. No president...none...could be as dumb as Bush. Obama is not stupid. His flubs do not equate an idiot. Human error. But I suppose this is the best you can come up with. Fail.

  • Are any of these beyond explanation?

  • Even if he makes a mistake or two. He will never be like Bushy. Now that motherfucker couldn't help himself.

  • This is not just a mistake or two. This is a president who can only give great speeches with the aid a teleprompter. Without a teleprompter, Obama is a useless, unarticulate fake.

  • A mistake or two? What world do you live in?

  • TOUCHE' He had been campaigning relentlessly and it paid off. certainly sleep deprived. Bush couldnt put together a sentence.

  • A great nation with a stupid president and stupid supporters.

  • @DarthMai you just described america about 3 years ago

  • wankers............

  • LOL!

    Obama is a moron just like his supporters!

  • well said

  • 57 states 1 left to go.....stupid Obama

    Unbroken line of fallen heroes - and I see many here today ..... this cat is the dumbest President yet. Affirmative Action brought us to this point...time to end the experiment.

  • It's time for another gaffe clip of this so-called American president bowing to the King of Saudi Arabia, and then his entire administration denying he was bowing, as if people don't have eyes. He was "bending lower because he's taller than the King". Funny he didn't think of that for the Queen of England. If these left wing crooks lie about something so blatantly obvious as that, what the hell else are they lying about? Just about everything you can think of.

  • Yes I realized that after I posted the Thank you. LOL

    Looked 'Ernie' up on Youtube and thought to myself, what the heck?!?!!

    Thanks for letting me know what song it is.

  • Thank you so much for the quick response. :)

  • Actually I gave you the wrong title, sorry.. the actual name of this theme is "Yakety Sax"

  • I've been trying to look for the song that is played at the end of the clip for ages.

    Does anyone know what this song is called? Please and thank you. :)

  • "Ernie (The Fastest Milkman In The West)" was an innuendo-laden comic song written and performed by Benny Hill. The song was first performed on TV in the 1970s, and released as a successful recording in 1971.

  • The level of intercourse in the comments stays at a level way below the intelligence Obama exhibits even in his gaffes. Bush is so clearly reading teleprompter without understanding the weight of what he is saying, so he puts weight in everything he says. He was just about the dumbest person I have seen on TV and it shows. You shouldn't throw stones from Bush's glass whitehouse. This video is pure sentiment and no content. I had hoped for something more useful against Obama. Disappointing.

  • Yeah. Right. Because, you know, people that comment on Youtube videos are SUPPOSED to be making comments as if they were leaders of the free world. And how did you determine that Bush was stupid? By what he said? So you admit that Obama is stupid because of the many, many, many public speaking errors he has already made? Because you don't know either person personally, do you? They ONLY way you could determine either intelligence is by the quality of the things they have said. Correct? You lose.

  • Obama is a fuc***g idiot

    He will kill what made this country great.

  • Bush already beat him to it :)

  • bush promoted capitalism, the foundation of this country. obama's bringing socialism to the country. thats what almost killed america in the 1600's

  • Bush is clearly the smartest president this country ever had!! Happy?

  • no he was not. i said he did a good job promoting capitalism. he did even when the dems took control of congress. congress just shot him down

  • Lol....Obama the retard. Obama the special Olympic bowler. If we didn't allow the retards to vote, he would have never won.

  • Just seacrh "Obama Gaffes" for many more of these. By the time this clueless Affirmative Action president is done, Jimmy Carter is going to be remembered fondly. Bank on it. They will lose Congress in 2010, then ObamAcorn will be stopped in his tracks for his last two years in office. A total failure.

  • Man.........I could not have said it better. How sad it is that ANYONE could make Jimmy Carter look good as a US President! Good job!!

  • Though most of the media will do their best to stop it from happening, we just need to hope the country has seen enough of this media created empty suit, and has awoken to the nightmare he's creating with Pelosi and Reid's help by November 2010. If they lose Congress, ObamAcorn will be impotent for the last two years of his one and only term, and will go down as even worse than Carter, who was clueless but nowhere near as corrupt as ObamAcorn, his cabinet and this leftist led Congress is.

  • ROFLAO, Love the comparisons, 57 states and one more to go, but I wasn't allowed to got to hawaii (cause he really wasn't born there) or Alaska (cause sara palin would have shot and field dressed him) LOL

  • Obama wishes we had 60 states...this way he could steal more money to help his beloved unions.

  • If a republican had said that the media would have crucified him, Sarah Palin for example.

  • @mayorscruff sarah thought it was 2012 hahahaha

  • haha i dont like this vid (a poor-mans version of the Letterman segment) but that last Obama piece was hilarious!

  • Barack aint lyin

    Brothers takin it back Look at black slaves in Haite freed themselves in 1804 thats the first black free nation in the west brothers wining their own freedom, and control their own country, kickin whitey out. Im not worried about what white people think listen to Kamua Kambon Jeremiah Wright, Malcolm X Barack Obama he knows are people are dying, there aint but 1 soultion we taking it back cause the country built by the black man. Barack going give us ours.

  • Are you stupid?! What happened to you that you deserve getting "ours" from Pres. Obama? He's not gonna do anymore for you than he will for all the Asian, Hispanic, Native Americans or Caucasian people living in the United States. Stop being ignorant. He won, so we'll see who's living off of well-fare. Go get a job somewhere and don't expect people to pay for your stupid decisions.

  • immarked2 - shut up you racist muppet!!!

  • Go Tyrone-Powers '08!!!!!

  • People who are against Obama should get off youtube and go stomp for McCain. His campaign is doing so bad that i feel bad for McCain. I can't believe they they tried that Joe the Plumber thing hahahahahahah

  • Hitler, Stalin, Castro many others have tried redistribution of wealth and they either failed miserably or have a very backward dictorial slave society. This is what Obama wants and will get if he is president. Young people do not listen to CNN etc. they are bought by your enemies to lie and bring in the new world order via Obama!

  • sophias555, instead of parroting what someone told you (Fox?) why don't you read a history book and confirm the "info" first? Neither Hitler, Stalin or Castro EVER attempted redistribution. Castro is the only one who even brought the subject up, and he was talking about land reform. I realize that you are too uneducated/crazy to understand this, but I hope others who read this will.

  • This is satire, right?

  • Slick talker, stupid, hates America!America has been the greatest nation because we are a capitalist society which is the exact opposite of a socialist society which in essence is the redistribution of wealth. There is no incentive to perform and achieve excellence if you do not get fully rewarded and they stop creating any wealth, quit or move to another country and we lose our jobs and the government takes that part over and tells us where to work, pay, and hours...like 16 a day.

  • Obama is the anti-christ

  • really? can you please tell me how he is the "anti christ".u asshole

  • Actually Reagan was not a gaffe.

  • Oops sorry didn't catch on at first. eheheh.. shutup. lol

  • /rofl @ 57 states and all those dead he can see.... "I see dead people." o.O

  • @melly6970

    LOL Obama the empty zombie suit is probably giving a speech at the local cemetery.

  • I recall senator Al Gore drilling Oliver North for labeling Osama Bin Laden as the worlds most evil and dangerous terrorist. Al Gore strongly disagreed with Lt.Col. North that Osama was a threat.

    Terrorist Mohammad Atta was ordered to be released by Bill Clinton from the Israelis, and he was freed. Under the leader of Osama bin Laden, Mohammad Atta thanked America by flying a heavily fueled jetliner into the World Trade Center in 2001.

    Thank you Democrat leadership for your incompetence.

  • I believe it was Abu Nidal...not Osama Bin Laden.

  • NO, you're wrong gopmonster:

    Al Gore continued, trying to get a laugh out of the audience, 'Isn't that just a little excessive?' 'No, sir,' continued Ollie. 'No? And why not?' the senator asked. 'Because the lives of my family and I were threatened, sir.' 'Threatened? By whom?' senator Al Gore questioned.'By a terrorist, sir' Ollie answered. 'Terrorist? What terrorist could possibly scare you that much?' 'His name is Osama bin Laden, sir' Ollie replied.

  • Lol. Everybody makes verbal gaffes and Obama certainly makes less than Palin or McCain or Biden.

  • dann: Your perverted Obomination advocates for pro choice, the killing of unborn LIFE ! Some christian you claim Obomination to be.

  • Sarah Palin should be investigated for un-American activities, for her involvement with the Alaska Independence Movement. What a joke, if Alaska with 670,000 people were an independent country, and Russia decided to push them around like they just did to Georgia, do they expect the lower 49 to send troops to help them? Idiots!

  • Obama Lies to you Danny.... He lies and lies and lies. And you believe it all. You don't check facts. You feel that because you are ignorant you need someone easy to wrap your mind around to support. He is a thief in the night. Stealing your future. If elected Obama will fail at task, he will fail on his promises and he will blame replublicans. Because only liberal democrat voters would believe that republucans could the blame for everything. Odds and averages make no sense to you.

  • talking elephant said

    Obama Lies to you Danny.... He lies and lies and lies. And you believe it all.

    Compared to GWB, Obama will be like a breath of fresh air! McCain is more of the same, and I won't vote for Palin because she does not want Alaska to be part of the U.S. She is a phony! She associates with right wing, anti American, evilangelical cone heads.

  • dann: What comparison does McCain have with Bush ? They are of the same Party. But Bush is not running for President. Why keep comparing the two ? It sounds like this, I compare Barack Obama to a sack of bullshit with perfume poured over it ! And the sack of bullshit will always be a sack of bullshit !

    So why do the Obama supporters keep comparing the two ?

  • oh it's Bush alright. It's worse.

    Barack Obama will be a great president because he is a natural leader who inspires people to act, not just to follow.

    McCain is a nationalist who believes in ordering and dictating like Bush did.

    Our constitution is too precious to put up with any more of it.

    Obama 08!

  • dah:"who inspires people to act,". What does that mean? Act on what? Most that support Obama were shocked, stunned, perplexed to find out for their first time Obama is a hardcore Marxist/socialist when he answered the plumber. Most people want to now know when does Obama ever plan to stop raising taxes for "spreading wealth around"? Most now want to know when he lets Congress keep spending, if MORE of the same "spreading wealth around" is ever gona stop have to pay for that Congress pork also.

  • @dahliafully

    No comment.

  • Not only are you insane, but you are also stupid.

  • @ElephantOwnersDotcom you predicted it!

  • McCain and the Republicans can only lie now about and try to put in the fear factor. Bush was full of the fear factor during his campaign. Obama will win and he does not have to lower himself to these lies that the McCain people have made up. Fear,Fear I know Obama is a terrorist and Biden is a Irish Catholic and a unsaved Christian. Fear, Fear!!!

  • Talk about lies. McCain never said Obama was a terrorist. As a matter of fact, he took a microphone out of a woman's hand to say Obama was a decent man. McCain never said a thing about Joe Biden's religion. The lies are from you.

    Let's talk fear. What the hell is the global warming hype. It is all about fear. It is socialism dressed up as environmentalism pushed by fear. The Seas Are Rising! The World has a fever! The polar bears are dying!

    That's the politics of fear.

  • A candidate that truely had a talent for diplomacy wouldn't even answer to what Obama claims McCain is doing, unless Obama has nothing of substance to continue forward and NEEDS to turn attention away from what his past has been and what his campaign is accused of. Obama obviously is guilty.

  • And whats with your candidate Obama that becomes so bemused on subjects so easily when a simple yes or no is sufficient ? And his many gaffes, his doublespeak, and of all those countless annoying "UH" interjections.

    America by placing Obama as a candidate is raising the bar for a President but lowering the bar. And this has nothing to do with his race, but his lack off quality, in everything.

  • America by placing Obama as a candidate is NOT raising the bar for a President but lowering the bar. And this has nothing to do with his race, but his lack off quality, in everything.

    GWB was a "C" student at Yale and Harvard, McCain was also a "C" student at the Naval Academy. Obama graduated with honors from Columbia University and Harvard. Your comment is one of the dumbest that I have seen on Youtube. If anyone devalued the office of President, it was GWB. McCain the same.

  • dannyn: To you it's dumb. Why ? With your one functional brain cell you have left, your reasoning is that that "anyone" that earned a degree is a better candidate for President.

    Your flawed reasoning is YOU compare a degree bearer with leadership quality. Your Obama RAN out of Washington 2 weeks ago because he couldn't hold a meeting together for LACK of leadership. And after he bailed he says "call me if you need me". Hm, LMAO yea those degrees did what ?

    Hey dummy, have you noticed what 8 years of GWB has done to this country? Do you want 4 more years of GWB?

    Obama/Biden 2008! Palin doesn't even want to be an American. LOL

  • dann: So tell us what is the same about McCain/Palin as Bush ? Just the facts please, and no ASSumptions.

  • Barack Hussein Obama is just like a snake. A snake will ALWAYS turn and bite you, just give some time.

  • CommonSpecies

    Barack Hussein Obama is just like a snake.

    Obama is a good christian and he will only bite you a little if you have money. LOL

    McCain is the snake in the grass, he cheated on his first wife and then left her when she needed him most. He is always flaunting his war record but he does nothing for the vets. The veterans organizations give him a low approval rating. The DAV rating for McCain is 20%, for Obama 80%. Put that in your pipe and smoke it!

  • Obama claims his faith is Chritianity. The foundation of Christianity is The OT. So what does The Holy Creator of mankind say about an unborn child. Exodus 21:22-23, The subject matter in Exodus 21:22,23 is the UNborn child.

    The example is in verse 23, if the unborn child's LIFE is lost due to the conflict the sentence is a "life for life". Clearly The Creator is making it understood to all who read that an unborn child is the same as a child that has been born or any other person that's alive.

  • CommonSpecies

    Obama claims his faith is Chritianity.

    You are confused, Obama is pro-choice, which means that the woman makes the decision in regard to her body, not Obama or the government. This is something that you as a Republican should understand.

  • dann: And you say I'm confused ? LMAO hahahaha

  • I do not want Obama to win this election, I am against almost everything this man stands for, and have actively campaigned for McCain/Palin. As much as I dislike Obama, it disgusts me when I hear people making comments about how he will be assassinated soon after he's elected. I think that would be absolutely tragic. While I do not want him to be president, I do not think it's right to speak of taking a husband and father away from his family just because we don't agree with him.

  • I share your sentiment that it would be a tragedy if the President was assisinated. If he wins the election, Obama will be my President.

    Would it have mattered if Stalin or Hitler had children. Saddam Hussein had children as well. Two "lovely" boys.

    The point: his family is not the concern. People aren't assasinated or not assasinated because of their families. The tragedy would be the harm done to the country. We change power peacefully in the U.S. God help us if that ever changes.

  • So, you think votes only count in 50 states?

    Catch up.

  • Debate, debate, debate! McCain is tanking because he won't debate Obama on the economy. Mississippi will go Democrat in November. The Obama Express is pulling away from the McCain Bullshit Express. DJI poised to move to 8000 just before election day, the Republicans are procrastinating while our money goes down the drain with McCain.

  • hey dannnynieves, this started with carter and the housing reinvestment act. the the clinton admin. decided that 63% of people owning homes wasn't enough and forced lenders to loan to unqualified peopleunder threat of penalty. and mccain brought up legislation to regulate fannie and freddy but it was shot down by a party line vote by a democratic congress. a lot has been done in the name of greed in both parties but to say that it is all the republicans fault is moronic. get your facts straight.

  • dannnynieves like so many other liberals spouts liberal facts frm liberal sources and is already celebrating a victory in nov. Just like all of those Kerry supporters dannnynieves and his band of ill-informed liberals will be trying to figure out again how 59,054,087 people can be so wrong.

    get your facts straight.

    Read my lips, supply side economics is dead, dead, dead. You can't lower taxes for the rich and keep on spending like GWB did, the result is the mess we are in, which is made worse by the sub-prime crisis. GWB nor the Fed did anything to avoid this crisis. You want to blame a Dem. Congress, but Congress has only been in Dem. majority for 2 years. GWB thought he was Richard the Lion Heart, and now we are bogged down with 2 wars, and economic crisis.

  • Monster

    You are in denial, there is no way John McCain can win in Nov. The Republican Party is dead, dead, dead, GWB killed it. It is going to be a landslide victory for Obama, the people are tired of you Republican bullshitters. Before the election the DJI will slide down to about 8000 and that is going to piss everyone off. The only way to appease the public is to jump out the window. LOL If a few Republicans jump out the window or blow their brains out, the markets will rally. Go for it!

  • N.Y. Times Breaking News alert

    McCain Aide's Firm Was Paid by Freddie Mac

    One of the giant mortgage companies at the heart of the credit crisis paid $15,000 a month to a firm owned by Senator John McCain's campaign manager from the end of 2005 through last month, according to two people with direct knowledge of the arrangement. The disclosure contradicts a statement Sunday night by Mr. McCain that the campaign manager, Rick Davis, had no involvement with the company for the last several years.

  • The last time I looked Barack Obama was not running against Rick Davis. He was running against John McCain. If taking money from a mortgage company is a sin, the Barack Obama is the #2 sinner in Congress. It seems to me that it far more troubling that someone who votes on legislation is taking the money then someone who is working on a campaign.

    You finger pointing is telling. I guess you are finally catching on. The problem if Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae...and Barack is in DEEP TROUBLE.

  • News Flash! This allegation is demonstrably false. As has been previously reported, Mr. Davis separated from his consulting firm, Davis Manafort, in 2006. As has been previously reported, Mr. Davis has seen no income from Davis Manafort since 2006. Zero. Mr. Davis has received no salary or compensation since 2006. Mr. Davis has received no profit or partner distributions from that firm on any basis weekly, bi-weekly, monthly, bi-monthly, quarterly, semi-annual or annual since 2006. Again, zero

  • Neither has Mr. Davis received any equity in the firm based on profits derived since his financial separation from Davis Manafort in 2006. Though these facts are a matter of public record, the New York Times, in what can only be explained as a willful disregard of the truth, failed to research this story or present any semblance of a fairminded treatment of the facts closely at hand.

    Further,Davis has never been a lobbyist for either Mae or mac.

    Liberal read lies, talk lies & believe them.

  • The Elephant said

    Neither has Mr. Davis received any equity in the firm based on profits derived since his financial separation from Davis Manafort in 2006.

    Obama/Biden 2008!

  • Posting results of an online poll from the Clinton News Network (CNN) tells us nothing about the America, but it does tell us a lot about you.

    Starting in 2004, Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae started pushing "affordable housing" by pushing subprime loans. This won support from Congressional Dems.

    In 2005, John McCain tried to pass a reform bill to limit the risk Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae were taking on.

    It was blocked in committee by Dems on a party line vote.

    The truth will come out.

    The truth will come out.

    The truth is already out, Allen Greenspan (Republican) was in charge of the Federal Reserve Bank and he allowed sub-prime mortgages. The problem goes way beyond Freddie and Fannie and Greenspan was in the drivers seat. If the American people are going to bail out all these companies, we should take away their golden parachutes and open the window so they can jump without a chute just like everybody else. Once the CEO'S jump, markets will rise.

  • McCain is confused! He doesn't know whether he wants to be Ronald Reagan or Franklyn Delano Roosevelt. LMHO

    Obama/Biden 2008 the logical choice for the 21st century.

  • Five days from their first presidential debate, Democrat Barack Obama has climbed in the polls as Republican John McCain fumbled his response to a looming US economic cataclysm.

    Reganomics is a dead economic philosophy, GWB killed it on Friday, giant bail out means supply side economics is dead, dead, dead! LOL

    Give them the bail out, but take away their golden parachutes!

    Obama/Biden 2008

  • Reaganomic ended 20 years ago. Our financial problems were the result of a quassi-governmental business, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. The problem was caused by government trying to influence both business and society with a great experiment. That government experiment failed and as usual, politicians are pointing fingers. Do you believe politicians?

    Why don't you research who tried to correct Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac in 2005 and who opposed the reforms. HINT: Democrats loved the experiment.

    Wake up, the main problem was Allen Greenspan

    allowing sub-prime loans, he was in the drivers seat and he was not watching the road. Also lowering taxes for the rich while fighting two wars, killed this economy. You can't cut and spend at the same time, GWB is a bubble head. Supply side is, dead, dead, dead! GWB killed it. Obama/Biden 2008

    The great experiment that failed was the one that Ronald Reagan started and that GWB tried to continue. It failed because you can't cut and spend at the same time. Ronald Bubble head could not do it, neither could GWB. The combination of what GWB was doing, while Greenspan was driving the Fed, caused the housing bubble. Bubbles is what Republicans create. Obama/Biden

  • Did Republicans create the tech bubble? What did Bush do to create a housing bubble?

    The housing bubble was caused by Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae. Their biggest supporters were Democrats. George Bush called from reform 3 months after taking office. Every effort was blocked by Democrats and liberal Republicans. He has warned Congress on many occassions.

    John McCain tried to pass S109 in 2005. It was blocked by Democrats.

    As usual, your post shows a complete lack of substance.

  • According to Greenspan, exuberence caused the tech bubble. LOL

    The housing bubble was caused by sub-prime loans. Sub-prime means loans to people who in reality could not afford the homes they were buying, but were convinced by dishonest brokers and bankers that they could. Neither GWB or Greenspan did anything to prevent this.

    As usual, you miss the whole point, GWB & Greenspan were in the drivers seat,yet you want to blame the passengers for the crisis. Wake up dummy! Obama/Biden 2008

  • Wait, how are you going to rag on Obama by setting him up by the gaffe master himself George Bush. P.S. McCain's worse, watch his "gaffe" videos, holy shit they're a comedians gold mine.

    OMG we are going to crash!!! Ben, take the wheel! "Are you sure? I'm a Republican too!", yeah, but you know the New Deal! LOL

    What is fundamentally wrong with our economy? I would say that there is too much government. Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac were created and supported by the government.

    Fannie & Freddie are private companies supported by the Govt. Without them, most people would not be able to buy homes. The easy money you speak of was provided by Greenspan a Republican, he fell asleep at the wheel, with his foot on the gas pedal, driving a 16 wheel economy with no brakes.

  • Themonster said

    McCain said "The issue of economics is not something Ive understood as well as I should".

    I stand corrected, however in these trying times we need someone who understands that there is something fundamentally wrong with our economy. We do not need 4 more years of GWB.

    Obama/Biden 2008!

  • What is fundamentally wrong with our economy? I would say that there is too much government. Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac were created and supported by the government. They distorted the housing market. Add some easy money put out by the Federal Reserve policy and we have a housing bubble...which burst. I am sure you have another take on fundamental problem and a completely different solution.

    I would say there is too much government. My guess is, you would say there is not enough.

  • Hmm, we have 2 bad quotes from our next president. Our current president could give you five times that many in the course of one speech.

  • He's an eejit

  • Dow down 500 points today, Lehman Bros bankrupt, Merill Lynch sold for 50B, Elephant man's stock portfolio down 50% from last year.

    The only thing we have to fear, is fear itself, and McCain/Palin in the White House. McCain knows nothing about economics, OMG!

    Obama/Biden 2008!

  • Uh... and Obama has some kind of solution to the downturn in the global economy? Is he aware that he can't raise taxes in Europe and Asia? Obviously he is hoping to bring socialism back into style.

  • abdezyn

    Uh... and Obama has some kind of solution to the downturn in the global economy? Is he aware that he can't raise taxes in Europe and Asia?

    Yes, he is aware that he can't raise taxes in Europe and Asia, he is also aware that he can raise yours if you make more than 250k and lower mine. LMHO Are you aware that McCain/Palin are liars? Are you aware that McCain knows nothing about the economy. If you are aware of those facts,and are voting for McCain, are you aware that you are an idiot?LOL
