But now, it is certainly good to know that I am not the only blogger out there spilling my guts about the George Soros/Obama connection!
Soros, Barack Hussein Obama, the Financial Meltdown: Destroying America
There are many other additional links that support my original suspicions connecting these two with our current economic mess!
Please read the article links at the "Road Sassy" site. It is just TOO COINCIDENTAL that this has happened just eight weeks before the election!
People - we need to pray for John McCain to come to the rescue on this. I have heard that Newt Gingrich has come up with a plan that is much better than the current $700 billion bailout. At least John McCain courageously outlined five points (during his speech at the Clinton Global Initiative) that need to be addressed before this amount of taxpayer money is handed over.
Here's just a few of the things that I found most disturbing at the "Road Sassy" site:
Obama Knee-Deep in Financial Crisis
It’s important to go to http://opensecrets.org in order to do some serious research on Obama’s fundraising, including this year and his 2004 Senate race. Obama, after Chris Dodd, was the biggest recipient of donations from Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, and his economic adviser, Franklin Raines, was a major architect of the financial disaster. So, too, was Jim Johnson, who (briefly) headed Obama’s V-P search team. McCain is exploiting this.
But a key point to bring out how many millions (tens of millions?) Obama has received from financial firms, not only Fannie and Freddie, but also Goldman Sachs, Citigroup, and many, many other firms whose hands are dirty in the recent financial events. Goldman Sachs has treated Obama like the world’s most expensive mistress.
Bloggers and other onliners: We need to concentrate on issues that will ring a bell with the American people and avoid ones that mainly academic exercises. The fact that Obama has received millions from people who caused the economic crisis will resonate.
What is especially enraging for me is that Soros and his boy Obama may damn well succeed in pulling this country down. I have been writing about Soros for a long time and I am relieved to see others recognizing his nefarious machinations in this election.
Soros Bets on U.S. Economic Collapse
We may not know much about Paulson, but we know a lot about Soros.
Senators Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama favor government support for people losing their homes because they can’t repay their sub prime mortgages. But what about the financial wheeler-dealers in the hedge fund industry who may stand to make billions of dollars from this terrible debacle? Foremost among them is billionaire hedge fund operator George Soros, who has committed his life and immense financial resources to bringing the Democrats to power in the White House.
Ties to the controversial and mysterious hedge fund industry could become a major problem for the Democratic Party. Hedge fund money “appears to be tilting toward the Democrats of late,” the New York Times reported last year.
OBAMA IS OWNED BY GEORGE SOROS
Barack Obama is a wholly-owned subsidiary of madman financier George Soros, the shadowy multi-billionaire who is credited with destroying the entire economy of Britain a few years ago while making a fortune betting against the British currency. For his trouble, he was convicted of insider trading, stock manipulation, and trading fraud. Sound familiar?
Now Soros, along with a conspiracy of Asian and European currency traders, is betting against the dollar. He hopes to bring down the economy of the United States and control the White House, all within the next eight weeks. Already there is talk in international financial circles of lowering the credit rating of the United States from AAA, for the first time in history. That would skyrocket our cost of borrowing. Soros is quoted as having said, “The main obstacle to a stable and just world order is the United States. . . . We must puncture the bubble of American supremacy.”
But first he must get Obama elected at all costs. And to that end he has managed to enlist many of the nation’s union bosses to commit more than $1 billion to the election. Soros plans a one-two punch against our economy, the first in New York in October (did we already see it?) the other in Hollywood just before the election in November.

Second Update: Now we know why the Jr. Senator from Illinois - who has spend most of his time in office campaigning for the presidency - dragged his feet about coming back to Washington to help with the current financial meltdown. He probably already knows about how the Dems created this mess:
How the Democrats Created the Financial Crisis: Kevin Hassett
Was his reluctance to come back to Washington due to guilt? Or was it due to his desire for complete evasion? I'd bet it was the latter reason...
Excerpt:
Now that the collapse has occurred, the roadblock built by Senate Democrats in 2005 is unforgivable. Many who opposed the bill doubtlessly did so for honorable reasons. Fannie and Freddie provided mounds of materials defending their practices. Perhaps some found their propaganda convincing.
But we now know that many of the senators who protected Fannie and Freddie, including Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton and Christopher Dodd, have received mind-boggling levels of financial support from them over the years.
Throughout his political career, Obama has gotten more than $125,000 in campaign contributions from employees and political action committees of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, second only to Dodd, the Senate Banking Committee chairman, who received more than $165,000.
Clinton, the 12th-ranked recipient of Fannie and Freddie PAC and employee contributions, has received more than $75,000 from the two enterprises and their employees. The private profit found its way back to the senators who killed the fix.
There has been a lot of talk about who is to blame for this crisis. A look back at the story of 2005 makes the answer pretty clear.
Oh, and there is one little footnote to the story that's worth keeping in mind while Democrats point fingers between now and Nov. 4: Senator John McCain was one of the three cosponsors of S.190, the bill that would have averted this mess.

Lest we forget:
Soros-Obama Connection from LGF archives.
Someone once chastised me for "writing the first comment on my own blog." Well...here I go again!
ReplyDeleteI was just listening to Shepard Smith interview a Democratic Senator - Menendez - who is all for this bailout. Then he interviewed a Republican Senator (can't recall name) who is one of the conservative Republicans who has had 44 economists tell him DON'T DO THIS BAILOUT!
Supposededly, Menendez objects to Senator McCain coming back to Washington to help with this debacle.
Hmmm...isn't it strange that the Democrats are "all for" this deal (surprisingly...going along with President Bush...whom, all this time THEY HAVE HATED...of all people!!) while some of the Conservative Republicans are concerned that it isn't the correct course of action?
I wonder.
Is this a "damned if you do - damned if you don't" scheme where Soros will rise victorious (and by default, Obama too?) in the midst of this horrible mess?
I pray to God it isn't!!
I'm just asking questions...
The fund manager "Soros" did spend $400,000 to decriminalize pot in Massachusetts and spent $24 million of his money to deaf Bush in 2004.
ReplyDeleteWikipedia says he broke the bank of England and was invesitgated in France for insider trading.
He gave $5 million to Move On.
He promotes regime change in Africa.
Sounds like your thinking is in his ballpark. I'll leave you with this Wikipedia quote:
"The bulk of his enormous winnings is now devoted to encouraging transitional and emerging nations to become 'open societies,' open not only in the sense of freedom of commerce but - more important - tolerant of new ideas and different modes of thinking and behavior."
Hi. Thank you for the links and hat tips, but I have to thank you for concentrating on Soros. I am buried in a new job and haven't had time to dig into it as I want. I have over 300 links on the bastard and it is a fascinating journey to follow him through every country that he inserts his agenda and minions into. I am sure you have seen it, but our suspicions are further confirmed with this post from the American Thinker. I knew this so called "crisis" stunk of Soros.
ReplyDeleteKeep up the excellent work.

Hi Zee,
ReplyDeleteThanks for the encouragement and for sharing that additional link!
If the MSM was doing it's job, Obama's candidacy WOULD BE OVER! Unfortunately, they are all (except for Fox News Channel) in the tank with this would-be, and should-be pariah and will not report on all of these important corruption issues surrounding this radical leftist socialist/Marxist man.
It appears that the Obamabots "Truth Squad" now have to back off from their intimidation and terror tactics.
ReplyDeleteProsecutors on Obama 'Truth Squad' sound retreat
However, there is no doubt that they would have tried to get away with it if they were not caught and called out about it.
Excerpt:
What Senator Obama and his helpers are doing is scandalous beyond words," wrote Gov. Matt Blunt in a statement. "The party that claims to be the party of Thomas Jefferson is abusing the justice system and offices of public trust to silence political criticism with threats of prosecution and criminal punishment.".
Hugo Chavez anyone?
Barack [Saddam] Hussein Obama?
