FLUSHING THE ECONOMY

Oh looky looky! The Obamunist "sat down" with John McCain! See! He's "reaching across the aisle." Well, as far as appearance sake. In terms of action he's packing his staff with the far (now mainstream) left. From Moonbattery:

In a victory for environmentalists, Rep. Henry Waxman of Los Angeles ousted John Dingell, the longest-serving member of Congress, as chairman of the House committee that handles all energy, climate change and health care legislation.

The fact that global warming is not real makes no difference to Henry Waxman. To get an idea of how reasonable the guy is, consider that he helped Code Pink funnel $600,000 to the terrorists fighting our troops in Fallujah.

Fatal car crashes must often produce moments like this — instants that seem to stretch on forever as your stomach sinks and you realize that it's really going to happen: your car is really going off the bridge into the icy river far below. Barack Obama really has been elected, and a Congress controlled by unhinged leftists will back to the hilt his plans to destroy America's economy so that socialism can be imposed.

And this crap has my mind in free-fall:

Moonbattery, quoting IBD:

Bruce Marks, founder of the leftist Neighborhood Assistance Corp. of America, makes a good living shaking down banks for loans to deadbeat borrowers that he thinks are entitled to homes.

Last month, he and about 100 urban protesters stormed Fannie Mae's headquarters, demanding it stop foreclosures on subprime houses — the same homes his group pressured Fannie to fund.

As usual, the bullying tactics worked: Fannie Mae is now reviewing every foreclosure, while increasing the number of mortgages it restructures by lowering interest rates and extending loan terms to make payments more affordable.

Marks believes that expecting The Oppressed to have good credit or make a down payment before receiving a mortgage loan is "patronizing and racist." According to moonbat ideology, it is everyone's right to have the home they want at someone else's expense.

Even before The One ascends to the White House, the government is already infested with leftists who share Marks's viewpoint:

Congress' banking committee chiefs, Sen. Chris Dodd and Rep. Barney Frank, are also demanding banks stop foreclosures. And guess who they've invited to testify about that? That's right: Marks

Do you REALLY think The Obamessiah is going to make things better? I always thought that the survivalist mentality was a little dramatic and off the wall, but now? Might be a good idea to stock up on canned goods and ammo.
