I gre up in a family that was ultra-Republican. My father met with Nixon over the Watergate matter. Towards the mid-80's, before he died, my father and our family became Independents. My father mentioned so many things he witnesses over the years that made a life-long Republican dislike his party.

This is not a national problem, or a problem with one country or another - I feel this is just a human flaw that shows up in a certain percentage of its populus. There seems to be the same amount of these types, no mater what country you look at.”

“I REALLY THINK YOU ARE ONTO SOMETHING!
Not only was this an apparent case of shilling, to drive the price up, but it also seems to legitimize some type of graft payment or payment for future considerations. This really does seem to be nothing more than a legitimate way to transfer money to Palin. If there is hanky panky - that would also possibly be interstate wire transfer fraud.
Think about it. The bidding keeps getting higher. McGinness keeps trying to up the bid, having not been earlier disqualified (which I'm sure many others were), Maples who is the favored bidder comes in to win the bidding in the end.
I've seen some crazy corruption cases in NJ, but this deal stinks on ice!”

“And, considering this latest h/a/n/k/y-p/a/n/k/y from Palin, just think if she was still Governor and this woman Maples is in the d/e/f/e/n/s/e contracting business? It boggles the mind, however, you are right about future g/r/a/f/t payment and especially since Maples has openly said that she wants Palin to be President.”

Bailout a Done Deal, So What Happens Now?

“Chrysler might be on the block - possibly being sold to Nissan.
Auto dealerships are floundering now.
As people struggle to pay their mortgages and provide basic needs for their families, they will not be buying automobiles at the rate they did last year. Whether or not the credit supply is opened up a bit will not increase automobile sales, people need to be able to afford financing another vehicle. A bailout of the financial institutions WILL NOT solve this problem.
The people MUST have mortgage relief. Inflation must be brought under control. This will not happen with a $700B bailout - or whatever folks want to call it to make it sound good!
THIS BAILOUT BILL IS A TOTAL SHAM AND MUST BE STOPPED!
Increasing the debt by $6K per citizen or $25K PER TAXPAYER will not introduce more disposable income to the family. David Kucinich had the right plan, fix the mortgage industry so that homes are not foreclosed upon and seized by the banks. This only drives everyone else's property values down while increasing bank debt and future loan rates. It's cheaper to save a house from foreclosure and does not cause traumatic damage to the families involved.
There were also a couple of foreign countries, facing this same problem, who fixed with without a bailout or increased debt to its citizens. This was on Lou Dobbs Money Line yesterday!
Obama or McCain - Have the stones to stop this bill, BECAUSE IT STINKS ON ICE!”

“This bill IS A SHAM! Oppose it at all costs!
It is a giant land grab by several institutions, especially Goldman Sachs! Just as NJ's governor, who is a former Goldman CEO, the Treasury head is former Goldman. Guess who is the main benefactor of this deal... you got it. Goldman! NJ's governor, Jon Corzine, and the NJ government over the past several years have directly benefitted Goldman Sachs. It's a running joke in NJ that Goldman seems to be the ONLY lending institution in the country. FORMER GOLDMAN PEOPLE TAKE CARE OF GOLDMAN... PERIOD!
Dennis Kucinich (D-Ohio) is 100% correct on this problem. If the problem is bad mortgage debt, then the problem should be solved from the BOTTOM UP! Just like how Obama wants to correct the economy and help the middle-class by starting from the BOTTOM UP! If Goldman wasn't getting any money from this deal, I might think that it has a bit of legitimacy to it. But Goldman seems to be the main beneficiary of this plan.
Floating money from the TOP DOWN WILL NOT correct this problem - THE BAD MORTGAGES WILL STILL EXIST! Fix the bad mortgages - Stop the foreclosures - Save the people's homes. If the big institutions are complaining about the bad mortgages, How can they complain if the bad mortgages are addressed? DO NOT GIVE THEM THE MONEY DIRECTLY!
THIS IS A LAND GRAB AT THE EXPENSE OF THE AMERICAN PEOPLE!”

The Obama Money Situation
Commented Sep 09, 2008 at 22:32:55 in Politics
“Many early Obama supporters in New Jersey are not contributing anymore money to him because of Jon Corzine!
Corzine is a man with low approval ratings matching GWB's. NJ is bonded to up to its teeth with an unbelieveable debt ratio and virtually every taxable source of revenue has been expanded. What's worse is that more and more taxes are being implemented. 2008's budget/debt increased 45% alone!
$6 billion goes MISSING from the School Construction Company - in charge of rebuilding some schools. There was NO investigation. What did the governor do? He passed a bill stating that FUTURE governors cannot float bonds without voter approval - but he still can. Weeks later, he floated another $3.9 Billion to the same school construction group that LOST $6 Billion! There is NO accountability in this state for officials!
Governor Corzine has not been running the office that much. Over the past year, he has been politicking for Hillary - saying bad things about Obama. Then, when Hillary is out of it, he switches sides.
Many radio stations say Corzine is lobbying for a Cabinet position. First with his friend Hillary and now with Obama. Corzine wants so badly to exit NJ because he is not well received, he has to now face the debts of this state which are akin to the federal problem we now face under GWB and company, and there is talk that CORZINE WILL NOT GET RE-ELECTED GOVERNOR OF NJ!
MR. OBAMA - PLEASE CHOOSE WELL AND”

“Jon Corzine, you’re kidding?
It seems that the only thing that Governor Corzine knows how to do, besides politicking for Clinton & Obama, is floating billion dollar bonds and raising a couple hundred taxes. NJ is now the 48th or 49th most business hostile state in America. The economy is faltering, all the while the state debt/budget grew 45% this year alone!
Mr. Corzine spent almost $60 Million of his own money to buy the election away from Richard Codey. He supposedly gave millions to county Democratic headquarters to get the their nod. GOLDMAN SACHS FORCED CORZINE OUT!
There is an ACTIVE recall campaign against him. Governor Corzine's approval rating that MATCHES George Bush’s. Many people in this state are not contributing any more money to Obama as they are concerned that Corzine will be appointed to something like the Secretary of Treasury – OMG!
If Governor Corzine were concerned about New Jersey, he wouldn’t have spent most of his time over the past year trying to secure a cabinet position from Hillary Clinton and the Barack Obama. REMEMBER: A few short months ago, Mr. Corzine was trashing Obama to sway support to Hillary!
On multiple radio stations, it is stated that Corzine is trying to find a quick exit from this state! He will not win another election, unless it is for county poultry inspector!
Jon Corzine – Don’t make me laugh.
But then again, there is a lot of support for Sarah Palin – so go figure?”
