Correcting the record is vital, but the Republicans in Washington don't seem to care.
All the debunking in the world is useless if the MSM won't touch it or twists it.
Today on WCBS Radio in New York, Palin's comments about Obama's Ayer's connection were preceded by this lead-in:
[quote]When we come back, the McCain campaign takes the low road...[/quote]
The 'low road"!! When did it become the low road to point out a candidate's mentors and associates?
Whistler, you seem to always imply that McCain and the GOP aren't doing enough. Remember, it's hard to play football when the refs are part of the opposing team.
Because they can't just report both sides objectively and let the public decide.
The regulation I speak of is the CRA, which REQUIRED lenders to make so many loans to individuals with BAD CREDIT and LOW INCOMES.
Liberals are responsible for this law. It was passed by a DEMOCRAT controlled congress, and signed into law by JIMMY CARTER, our greatest president...just kiddin'.
And don't forget the democrat party appointees to Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, who guaranteed these bad mortgages and pocketed hundreds of millions of dollars.
In terms of health care,
Do we really think a bunch of LAWYERS are going to improve our healthcare system.
I'm not much of a football fan, but rather a hockey fan.
When the other team hooks and holds the refs won't call it unless you keep moving your feet and try to go through it.
So yeah, if the only ones talking about it is some radio and blogger guys who's really going to care even though the majority of people are aware of the bias.
So call the other guys on it. At this point it ain't going to hurt.

Ms. Sibelius is a liar.
Lefties lie; it's all they have.

Now to health care: Gov. Sebelius is right. McCain will throw everyone off their employer sponsored health care plan and tax their health care benefits for the first time in history. He says it as well, it is a fact.
With health care cossts skyrocketing, he'll tax your health care benefits and then claim to give you a tax credit, but you won't actually see the tax credit. It will go directly to the insurance company. So you have to purchase your health care first and then claim the credit on your tax return which is then sent to the insurance company.
Millions will be dropped from their current plans and left to their own on the open market, which means if you have a pre-existing condition, you won't be able to get coverage or it will be so expensive that no tax credit will cover the cost of the insurance.
The insurance companies will still be able to exclude certain conditions such as diabetes and those who had employer coverage will be left without.
Also McCain claims that his tax credit will increase with the CPI. Too bad that health insurance increases go up at way more than the CPI. This doesn't get more people on health insurance. It will throw more people off over time than those it will cover.
The Commonwealth fund found that 20% of working adults looking for health insurance coverage were charged more for preexisting health conditions or outright rejected for health reasons.
Throwing citizens who have coverage into the individual market will not cover more people nor will it save those individuals any money.
Bad policy on McCain's part so I can see why he wants to start his smear campaign. I wouldn't want to talk about his health care plan or the economy if I were him either.
Do you really think our current economic problems, which stem from having 51% of our $12 trillion mortgage market held by two government-sponsored companies, is a problem with deregulation?
I find it hard to believe that you could even believe that yourself.
So yes, private insurance is tough to get now. That's because the self-insurance market is tiny and has to compete with employer-backed and government insurance.
So rest assured, he only wants to change your insurance, not his. He's happy with his.
Don't like it Kathleen? Tango-Foxtrot-Bravo.
McCain is a combat veteran. And a disabled one at that.
Surely you recognize there's a difference between that and government insurance for the general public, right?
Those who have employer insurance don't want to change knowing that it will cost them more on the open market. The market is what it is right now not where you would like it to be. McCain's plan changes none of that.
Sebelius was right.
Except that's NOT in his plan that you linked to. He never mentions the mortgage or bank industries. So you're lying Puzzle. Not that lying is anything new to you.
In fact the page you link to says that people will get a tax break even if THEIR EMPLOYER covers them.
Indeed, McCain plans to further regulate the market by using medicaid and medicare as a stick to beat doctors into charging lower prices. And using the government to force health insurance companies to continue to provide care to people who change jobs.
Or in short, not a single f-in thing you said is true.
Perhaps if you stuck to topics of which you have some small working knowledge: over-priced labor contracts, under-paid day laborer pickets, and of course feather-bedding. Obviously mortgage finance, economics, and the functioning of markets is NOT exactly your strong suit.
