Listen to the Democrats talk about the economy. Let's take Rahm Emanuel yesterday afternoon for instance. I listened to him rattle on for about 10 minutes talking about how the free market failed and it is time for more government. Admittedly, if I had an anti-capitalist Marxist leading my party's ticket in the election I'd be ranting against the free market also.

Now some of you are going to take what I say here and mutter "yeah, yeah, yeah" under your breath. You're just absolutely sure I'm dead wrong. But perhaps you might just give it a little study on your own. Maybe I can just cause some of you who are buying the Democrat party line with a newspaper article. This is from The New York Times dated September 30, 1999. The headline is "Fannie Mae Eases Credit to Aid Mortgage Lending." If you're just to stubborn to click on the link and read the story ... let me just share the first two paragraphs with you:

"In a move that could help increase home ownership rates among minorities and low-income consumers, the Fannie Mae Corporation is easing the credit requirements on loans that it will purchase from banks and other lenders.

The action, which will begin as a pilot program involving 24 banks in 15 markets -- including the New York metropolitan region -- will encourage those banks to extend home mortgages to individuals whose credit is generally not good enough to qualify for conventional loans. Fannie Mae officials say they hope to make it a nationwide program by next spring."

And WHO screened these people that got those worthless loans? ACORN, for one...Community Organizers...

Memory check...What was Obama's job before politics bit him in the butt?

COMMUNITY ORGANIZER!!! And you want the people what caused all this mess to FIX it?

If ya do...you just might get what you deserve.
