More Hijinx

Barney Frank, in charge of the finance committee, grabbed off $12,000,000 to give to a shaky bank in his district - a bank that is likely to fail. Not to mention that the head of the bank owns million dollar properties on California beaches.

Meanwhile businesses and banks that deserve the funds are not getting any. It looks like the finance committe has turned the bailout bill into the Friends of Barney Frank Project.

Don't be fooled - Barney Frank fought hard against Republican efforts in 2004 to regulate the financial industry. And he received a sweetheart mortgage from the banks, and Fannie Mae contributed very heavily to his campaigns. And he is the chair of the finance committee. Give me a break!

I swear, the Democrats have apparently never heard of the term "conflict of interest". And they pay no mind to corruption.

Chief of the finance committee gives millions to his favorite little bank.
Treasury Secretary cheats on his taxes.
Attorney General nominee who defended terrorists and FREED terrorists that were convicted.

His best pick, Hillary for SOS, is married to a man who takes millions from foreign powers, especially foreign muslim powers and China. Talk about a conflict of interest!

And get this - Obama has signed an order to provide $460 million dollars to foreign countries for abortion clinics. OKAY, don't jump on me about abortion - that is not what I am complaining about. Stop. Think. AMERICA IS BROKE! WHY are we picking up a half billion dollar tab for services other countries should be picking up the tab for? Is it legitimate for you and I to pay for abortions in other countries when we can't even pay our own bills?

What's next - will we be asked to pay for sending kids in Zimbabwe to college? Or maybe we should pick up the tab to remodel the capitol of the Ukraine. The point is this - we cannot afford this. And even if we could, it is not right to take money from Americans and redistribute it even here in America, let alone in other countries - some of which want to destroy us!

If Obama's "plan" to fix the economy includes sending all our money overseas to pay the expenses of other countries, I strongly suspect our economy is not going to get better any time soon.

I think we are in for a rough ride, folks!
