40 Days til US Election & to save the Womb stop a Desert!

Today begins 40 Days for Life campaign and 42 days until the Election in Honor of Our Lord's time in the Desert. Bishops, such as Archbishop Chaput are strongly behind this Lent for Life and here is a Video that Sets it off.  It is a great Idea!
From Arbp. Chaput site   


 
40 Days for Life prayer campaign begins Wednesday, Sept. 24
Sept. 24, 2008 (Denver) - Archbishop Chaput has approved the Archdiocese of Denver’s participation in a nationwide prayer and fasting campaign called “40 Days for Life.”  He encourages all Catholics to unite their prayers with other participants, living in over 170 cities throughout the country.
The 40 days of prayer will begin on Wednesday, Sept. 24 and end Sunday, Nov. 2. Specifically, prayer is to focus on all elected officials, and their commitment to protect and defend all human life, particularly the life of the unborn.
There are three parts to the prayer campaign: a Novena prayer (click here to download), various periods of fasting throughout the 40 days and peaceful prayerful witness at the Planned Parenthood Clinic at 7155 East 38th Avenue in Denver.
Two dozen parishes in the Archdiocese of Denver have committed to formal involvement in the campaign, in addition to Catholic organizations such as Fellowship of Catholic University Students (FOCUS), Educating on the Nature and Dignity of Women (ENDOW), Archdiocesan Catholic Homeshoolers and schools such as Regis University and Machebeuf High School.
Click here to download a form through which people can sign up to participate in the prayer campaign. Please email the completed form to the Respect Life Office at respectlife.office@archden.org.
For more information, please see the article in the Sept. 17 issue of the Denver Catholic Register, located on page 8, or go to the local website at www.40daysforlife.com/denver.
40 Days from Today is the Election...40 Days to stop a Mother's Womb from turning into a Child's Desert! All of us need to have the Darkness in our Souls illuminated by the Light from Heaven by the Love of God.  America with an 0bama Administration will turn in the Goshen of the Old Testament....

The 0bamas need this light too for they would kill their very own grandchildren if one of their daughters was unwed as they view the birth of a grandchild in this situation as a punishement.  Need I remind all that Rev. Jesse Jackson was the child of an unwed Mother?  Barack 0bama's mother was not married until Barack was ~3-4 month old baby in his mother's womb.  God help the 0bamas and help us all....

~1,500 African American Babies in the womb are hit by a violent Scirocco seen only in Desert Storms caused by Abortion....How many Martin Luther King Juniors, Booker T. Washintons, Frederick Douglasses, George Washington Carver, Margret Walker, Walter Paytons, Charles Drew MD's(American Blood Bank Pioneer), Ray Charles, Sammy Davis Juniors, Condelisa Rices, Clarence Thomases, Thurgood Marshalls, Bill Cosbys and Barack Obamas will be killed under Barack's unenlightened Administration?.....How many wonderful gifted African Americans will never see the light of day. 

How many of the ~5000 Americans like our children..like you and me will be killed under Barack's Presidency?  Will the inventor of a car that runs on Cold Fusion or Water never be born?  Will the cure for Cancer and Heart Disease continue til the end of time because we turned the WOmb into a Tomb?

I choose not to disdain Liberals(unlike the way they loathe Sarah Palin & her babies) but to love them with Prayer and Fasting during the next 40 days! I can not change Liberals....Only God can change Hearts and Minds hardened by the Lies of Liberalism!

Demcrats Conspiring US into Socialism 360!

I knew a little about Fannie Mae before but because I've bought property before.  However because of my desire to be a competent Blogger and Talk Radio I've learned so much.  This Financial Crisis is due mostly to the fact that Clinton put the Jimma Carter Era Community Re-Investment Act on Steroids!  Barney Franks and Chris Dodd should be impeached as they continue to claim that Fannie Mae has nothing to do with this Crisis. Raines, Johnson, Gorelick(Millionaire Civil Servant who was involved in 911 WTC and this Economic One!)  McCain should be hammering the Dems on this one!  He fears they come back at him with Keating 5 issue of the 80's is my guess.

The Democrats are insidiously turning our Capitalistic System into a Socialist One.  All the people who are high risk for Mortgages are in homes Thanks to the Fact that Franks, Dodd, Clinton have pushed for this.  A Bailout will occur in a another decade or 2. 

This reminds me of the Medicare Drug Program which is unnecessary,  Remember the Democrat lead State Children's Health Insurance Program, or SCHIP which would cover the Middle Class and College Students.

Social Security is on the verge of Collapse and the Feds will come to the rescue with a new bigger SSA type program.

Socialism by Creep is what is taking Place. Home Mortgages are not and forever backed by the FEDS.  Health-Care and Drugs backed by the Feds expanded during each Administration.  Education is basically funded by the FEDS. Wall Street is headed towards Welfare too. Our Capitalistic System like a Caterpillar is turning into a Moth which will destroy industry and our economy like it destroys fabric!

If more people blogged they'd use the Internet to learn the truth about how the Democrats are destroying FREE Enterprise and Capitalism! 
The Democrats are much more conniving, manipulative and pro-active about turning America into a European styled country.  Their latest move to allow the off shore drilling moratorium to expire is a calculation to win the White House after the US Public slammed them on this and favored the GOP position.  If 0bama gets in they'll reinstate the moratorium again!
 

We need People to become bloggers for the education that they'll receive alone as the MSM is eating our BRAINS!

Freedom of Choice Act Deceptive per Cardinal Rigali

The Culture of Death Marches on in Washington...I guess we can US Tax Payers Monopoly Money that the Democrats created with Fannie Mae and Freddy Mac to Kill more American Babies!

  From Life News

 

WASHINGTON, September 23, 2008 In a letter to all members of Congress on September 19, Cardinal Justin Rigali warned against enactment of the proposed "Freedom of Choice Act" or "FOCA" (S. 1173, H.R. 1964).

"Despite its deceptive title," he wrote, "FOCA would deprive the American people in all 50 states of the freedom they now have to enact modest restraints and regulations on the abortion industry. FOCA would coerce all Americans into subsidizing and promoting abortion with their tax dollars. And FOCA would counteract any and all sincere efforts by government to reduce abortions in our country."

Cardinal Rigali, chairman of the U.S. bishops' Committee on Pro-Life Activities, wrote that under FOCA"abortion on demand would be a national entitlement that government must condone and promote in all public programs affecting pregnant women." While some have said the bill would simply codify the Supreme Court's 1973 decision in Roe v. Wade, Cardinal Rigali responded, pointing out that supporters of FOCA say it "would sweep away hundreds of anti-abortion laws [and] policies" that are now in effect because they do not conflict with Roe. These include bans on public funding of abortions as well as "modest and widely supported state laws" protecting women's safety, informed consent and parental rights.

"However," wrote Cardinal Rigali, "there is one thing absolutely everyone should be able to agree on: We can't reduce abortions by promoting abortion…. No one who sponsors or supports legislation like FOCA can credibly claim to be part of a good-faith discussion on how to reduce abortions."

Cardinal Rigali urged all members of Congress "to pledge their opposition to FOCA and other legislation designed to promote abortion," so that "we can begin a serious and sincere discussion on how to reduce the tragic incidence of abortion in our society."

Astroturfing 0bama/Axelrod's Finger Print

I know the Wikipedia stuff I posted on is laborious to get thru.  Here is the key.....David Axelrod's use of Astroturfing is the common denominator to the "Viral" like approach to Barack 0bama's campaign.  Basically these NetR00Tnuts are 0bama's Jihadists like Suicide Bombers...Case in Point is David Kernell the Palin Yahoo Email Hacker!
 
Astroturfing in American English is a neologism for formal public relations campaigns in politics and advertising which seek to create the impression of being spontaneous "grassroots" behavior, hence the reference to the artificial grass, AstroTurf.
The goal of such a campaign is to disguise the efforts of a political or commercial entity as an independent public reaction to some political entity—a politician, political group, product, service or event. Astroturfers attempt to orchestrate the actions of apparently diverse and geographically distributed individuals, by both overt ("outreach", "awareness", etc.) and covert (disinformation) means. Astroturfing may be undertaken by an individual pushing a personal agenda or highly organized professional groups with financial backing from large corporations, non-profits, or activist organizations. Very often the efforts are conducted by political consultants who also specialize in opposition research.

Jawa & Wikipedia Cross Checked=David Axelrod Tactics!

I was curious about David Axelrod when he appeared on Fox News Sunday last Sept 7, 2008.  I wandered over to Wikipedia and now remembered that I was amazed by this Axelrod's Spider-Web like strategies!  I think Jawa's report is spot on for Wikipedia gives enough info about Axelrod that confirms the finger prints Rusty found!  I have excerpted the important clues in yellow below!  Everything that has happened to Sarah Palin has this "Viral" like Bird Flu take over the Conservative Host while the Liberal Agitator is immunized.  Even the Yahoo Email hack by the son of a very Liberal Tennessee Senator's son fits into this Axelrod Model!
 
From Jawa Report Today
Evidence suggests that a YouTube video with false claims about Palin was uploaded and promoted by members of a professional PR firm.
  • The family that runs the PR firm has extensive ties to the Democratic Party, the netroots, and are staunch Obama supporters.
  • Evidence suggests that the firm engaged in a concerted effort to distribute the video in such a way that it would appear to have gone viral on its own. Yet this effort took place on company time.
  • Evidence suggests that these distribution efforts included actions by at least one employee of the firm who is unconnected with the family running the company.
  • LINKS TO THE "KING OF ASTROTURFING" -- DAVID AXELROD
  • We believe the voice can also be heard on these AKP&D Message and Media produced videos.
  • In fact, all of the female voice overs showcased on the AKP&D website seem to belong to the same woman. That's right, all of them. The same voice heard in some Barack Obama ads, and which was used for the "eswinner" slime campaign.
  • More importantly, though, what is AKP&D? It's the Chicago based political consulting firm headed by David Axelrod. Yes, that David Axelrod. As in the David Axelrod who is Barack Obama's chief media strategist.
 
 
David Axelrod is an American political consultant based in Chicago, Illinoisand is the top adviser to Barack Obama, first in Obama's 2004 campaign for the U.S. Senate in Illinois and currently as chief strategist for Obama's 2008 presidential campaign.
  • Axelrod is the senior partner of AKP&D Message and Media
  • and was a political writer for the Chicago Tribune.
  • He operates ASK Public Strategies, a company that allegedly engages in "astroturfing" [12].
  • He is also a supporter of Cook County Commissioner Forrest Claypool , who helped Axelrod found his firm (under the name Axelrod and Associates).
  • Axelrod was born to Jewish parents in 1955 in New York City and grew up in Stuyvesant Town in Manhattan.
  • He went to P.S. 40.
  • Axelrod's father was a psychologist and avid baseball fan.[1]
  • His mother worked as a journalist at PM, a left-wing 1940s newspaper.
  • Axelrod traces his political involvement back to his childhood.
  • he told the Los Angeles Times, "I got into politics because I believe in idealism. Just to be a part of this effort that seems to be rekindling the kind of idealism that I knew when I was a kid, it's a great thing to do. [2]
  • So I find myself getting very emotional about it." At just 13 years old, he was selling campaign buttons for Robert F. Kennedy.
  • After attending Stuyvesant High School[1] in Manhattan, Axelrod attended the University of Chicago, where he majored in political science. 
  • As an undergraduate, Axelrod wrote for the Hyde Park Herald , covering politics, and picked up an internship at the Chicago Tribune.
  • At the age of 27, Axelrod became the City Hall Bureau Chief and a political columnist for the Chicago Tribune. He worked at the Tribune for eight years, covering national, state and local politics. He became the youngest political writer there in 1981.[3]
  • Unhappy with his prospects at the Tribune, in 1984 he joined the campaign of US Senator Paul Simon as communications director; within weeks he was promoted to co-campaign manager.[4]
  • He formed a political consultancy, Axelrod & Associates, in 1985.
  • In 1987, he worked on the successful reelection campaign of Harold Washington, Chicago's first black mayor.
  • Axelrod is a longtime strategist for Chicago mayor Richard M. Daley and styles himself a "specialist in urban politics."
  • In 2004, Axelrod worked for the presidential campaign of John Edwards. During the campaign, he lost responsibility for making ads, but continued as the campaign's spokesman. Regarding Edwards' failed 2004 presidential campaign,
  • In 2006, Axelrod consulted for several campaigns, including for the successful campaigns of Eliot Spitzer in New York's gubernatorial election and for Deval Patrick in Massachusetts's gubernatorial election.
  • Axelrod also served in 2006 as the chief political adviser for Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee chair U.S. Representative Rahm Emanuel for the U.S. House of Representatives elections, in which the Democrats gained 31 seats.
  • Axelrod and Barack Obama's ties reach back a decade.
  • Axelrod met Obama in 1992 when Obama so impressed Betty Lu Saltzmann, a woman from Chicago's "lakefront liberal crowd," during a black voter registration drive he ran that she then introduced the two.
  • Obama also consulted Axelrod before he delivered his famed 2002 anti-war speech[8] and asked him to read drafts of his book, The Audacity of Hope.[9]
  • Axelrod currently serves as the chief strategist and media adviser for Barack Obama's 2008 presidential campaign.
  • Axelrod contemplated taking a break from the 2008 presidential campaign, as five of the candidates—Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, John Edwards, Chris Dodd, and Tom Vilsack—were past clients.
  • Personal ties between Axelrod and Hillary Clinton also made it difficult, as she had done significant work on behalf of epilepsy causes for a foundation co-founded by Axelrod's wife, Citizens United for Research in Epilepsy (CURE).
  • (Axelrod's daughter suffers from developmental disabilities associated with chronic epileptic seizures.) Axelrod's wife even said that a 1999 conference Clinton convened on finding a cure for the condition was "one of the most important things anyone has done for epilepsy."[10]
  • Ultimately, however, he viewed Obama's potential candidacy as inspirational and historic.
  • He often likens Obama to Robert F. Kennedy and told The Washington Post, "I thought that if I could help Barack Obama get to Washington, then I would have accomplished something great in my life."[1]
  • Axelrod contributed to the initial announcement of Obama's campaign by creating a five-minute Internet video released January 16, 2007. [13] He continued to use 'man on the street' style biographical videos to create intimacy and authenticity in the political ads.
  • Axelrod helped to craft the Obama campaign's main theme of "change
  • The change message played a factor in Obama's victory in the Iowa caucuses. "Just over half of [Iowa's] Democratic caucus-goers said change was the No. 1 factor they were looking for in a candidate, and 51 percent of those voters chose Barack Obama...
  • Axelrod also believed that the Clinton campaign underestimated the importance of the caucus states. "For all the talent and the money they had over there," says Axelrod, "they - bewilderingly - seemed to have little understanding for the caucuses and how important they would become."[12] In the 2008 primary season, Obama won a majority of the states that use the caucus format.
  • Axelrod is credited with implementing a strategy that encourages the participation of people, a lesson drawn partly from the effectiveness of Howard Dean's 2004 presidential campaign as well as a personal goal of Barack Obama.
  • Axelrod explained to Rolling Stone magazine, "When we started this race, Barack told us that he wanted the campaign to be a vehicle for involving people and giving them a stake in the kind of organizing he believed in."[13]
  • This includes drawing on "Web 2.0" technology and viral media to support a grassroots strategy.
  • Obama's web platform allows supporters to blog, create their own personal page, and even phonebank from home.
  • Axelrod's elaborate use of the Internet has helped Obama to organize under-30 voters and build over 475,000 donors in 2007, most of whom were Internet donors contributing less than $100 each.[14]
  • The Obama strategy stood in contrast to Hillary Clinton's campaign, which benefited from high name recognition, large donors and strong support among established Democratic leaders.
  • The Politico described Axelrod as 'soft-spoken' and 'mild-mannered'[15] and it quoted one Obama aide in Chicago as saying, "Do you know how lucky we are that he is our Mark Penn?"[16]
  • Democratic consultant and former colleague Dan Fee said of Axelrod, "He's a calming presence."[17] "He's not a screamer, like some of these guys," political advisor Bill Daley said of Axelrod in the Chicago Tribune.
  • "In late April and early May, Barack Obama's former pastor Jeremiah Wright criticized Axelrod's influence on Obama.
  • Axelrod operates a second business from the same office, ASK Public Strategies, that discreetly plots strategy and advertising campaigns for corporate clients to tilt public opinion their way.[20]
  • He and his partners are secretive about operations and won't reveal the client roster or revenue. [21]
  • Customers and public records confirm agency has run campaigns for the Chicago Children's Museum, ComEd, Cablevision, and AT&T.[22]
  • The firm helped set up front organizations that were listed as sponsors of public-issue ads, a practice that industry insiders call such practices "Astroturfing" (manufacturing grassroots support). [23]
  • Eric Sedler, 39, a former public relations director at AT&T and corporate-reputation specialist at PR giant Edelman, is the "S" in ASK and the company's managing partner. The "K" is John Kupper, 51, a former congressional press secretary and ad-industry consultant, while the "A," of course, is Axelrod.[24] One TV commercial, penned by ASK, warned of a ComEd bankruptcy and blackouts without a rate hike and was sponsored by a group known as CORE, which describes itself on its Web site as "a coalition of individuals, businesses and organizations," but after a complaint was filed with state regulators, ComEd acknowledged that it had bankrolled the entire $15 million effort.[25] Employees of the utility and its parent, Exelon, have contributed $181,711 to Obama's presidential bid, more than workers at any other company in the state.[26] When Illinois utility Commonwealth Edison wanted state lawmakers to back a hefty rate hike two years ago, it took a creative lobbying approach, concocting a new outfit that seemed devoted to the public interest.[27] The firm also worked on behalf of Madison Square Garden's to stop plans for the contructions of a football stadium for the Jets on New York's Westside. [28] ASK's $1.1 million fee was listed as the "largest lobbying contract" of the year in the annual report of the state's lobbying commission.[29]
  • ASK last year proposed another "front" group campaign to help Illinois hospitals block a state proposal that would have forced them to provide more medical care to the indigent.
  • One part of its plan: create a "grassroots" group of medical experts "capable of contacting policymakers to advocate for our position," according to a copy of the proposal. (ASK didn't get the contract.) Public-interest watchdogs say these grassroots campaigns are state of the art in the lobbying world.
  • "There's no way with a straight face to say that's not lobbying," says Ellen Miller, director of the Sunlight Foundation, which promotes government transparency.[30] The firm's work has also involved Michelle Obama's employer, the University of Chicago Hospital. She helped create a program, called the Urban Health Initiative, that hired ASK Public Strategies in 2007 to assist in marketing the plan to the community as a better alternative for poor patients. The plan has critics in the community, however, who see at as a way to dump costly patients and increase the hospital's bottom line. [31][32

Obama @ Odds with Black Pro-Life Union

Day Gardner, National Black Pro-Life Union, on Planned Parenthood racismDay Gardner, president of The National Black Pro-Life Union, a leading African-American pro-life advocate group says presidential candidate Barack Obama continues to mislead the public about his votes on an abortion-infanticide bill. Obama has been tagged over the bill all election, and it involves making sure infants who survive abortions get proper medical care.Washington, DC (LifeNews.com)

Obama voted four times against the bill during his tenure in the Illinois legislature and was the only member of the body to speak against it on the floor.

  • The issue has been involved in back-and-forth television ads, with a woman who survived a failed abortion saying Obama's votes targeted her and Obama's campaign responding, calling the woman,Gianna Jessen and McCain, "sleazy, despicable liars."
  • Gardner also chides Obama for the ad blasting the Ms. Jessen young woman who survived the abortion.
  • Obama's comments about why he voted against the bill don't square up with the facts.
    • "He misrepresented his vote, saying that the bill he opposed in the Illinois State Senate was different from the bill that was passed by the US Senate and signed into law by President Bush," she said.
    • "However, the National Right to Life Committee has produced documents that confirm the two bills were exactly the same."
  • "It is hard to believe that this man vying for the highest office in America would not only oppose legislation to protect children born alive, but would then lie about it for 4 years stating that he did not oppose it," she continued.
  • "To make matters even worse, Obama is now attacking Gianna Jessen, a young woman who by some blessing, miraculously, survived being killed by abortion," she said.
  • "Rather than applaud her life, he totally disregards her and ignores her passionate plea for the lives of babies who after surviving abortion--are strangled, suffocated, stabbed to death, or shelved until dead-- which amounts to infanticide," she added.
  • Gardner said Obama is acting like a child and she urged him to admit he was wrong on voting against the bill.
  • "Mr. Obama behaves like a small child caught with his hand in the cookie jar--instead of telling the truth, he continues to deny the obvious and spouts tall tales like some children do," she told LifeNews.com.

Nutshell-Fannie Mae problem caused by Dems!

The Fannie Mae debacle basically is a Balloon Payment that has popped/exploded for high risks borrowers who were given negative amortization type loans whose home appreciation could not keep with the increasing loan amounts they owed.  Responsible are some Republicans but mostly Franklin Raines, Jamie Gorelick and James Johnson all Democrat appointees cooked the books and walked away from the Quasi-Goverment run Fannie Mae & Freddi Mac with ~$135 MILION dollars in bonuses over their base pay. This was possible because former President Bill Clinton twisted the arms of lending institutions to either give High Risk Borrowers loans to buy homes or lose their charter to be Mortgage Lenders.  When the Fannie Mae backed Balloon got so large and Republicans souned the alarm bells Democrats like Barney Frank, Chris Dodd and Barack Obama ran cover for Fannie Mae.  All this is EXPLAINED by Limbaugh, the American Thinker and Invester's Business Daily. 
 
Explained by Rush Limbaugh:
  • "The untold story in this whole national crisis is that President Clinton put on steroids the Community Redevelopment Act, a well-intended Carter-era law designed to encourage minority homeownership. And in so doing,
  • he helped create the market for the risky subprime loans that he and Democrats now decry as not only greedy but 'predatory.'" See, the very people that designed the program that led to all of this mess now get to blame the private sector and they're put back in total control and charge of it. "Yes, the market was fueled by greed and overleveraging in the secondary market for subprimes, vis-a-vis mortgaged-backed securities traded on Wall Street.
  • But the seed was planted in the '90s by Clinton and his social engineers. They were the political catalyst behind this slow-motion financial train wreck. And it was the Clinton administration that mismanaged the quasi- governmental agencies that over the decades have come to manage the real estate market in America. A
  • s soon as Clinton crony Franklin Delano Raines took the helm in 1999 at Fannie Mae, for example, he used it as his personal piggy bank, looting it for a total of almost $100 million in compensation by the time he left in early 2005 under an ethical cloud."
  • Can I translate that for you?  Franklin Raines was a Treasury employee, some sort of cabinet secretary in the Clinton administration.  He ends up at Fannie Mae and pays himself a hundred million bucks from 1999 to 2005, and they finally had to get rid of him because the scandal could not be contained.  Democrats propped up this, Carly!  Bush didn't do any of this. 
  • "Other Clinton cronies, including Janet Reno aide Jamie Gorelick, padded their pockets to the tune of another $75 million." Gorelick again. 
  • "In the end, Fannie had to pay a record $400 million civil fine for SEC and other violations, while also agreeing as part of a settlement to make changes in its accounting procedures and ways of managing risk. But it was too little, too late. Raines had reportedly steered Fannie Mae business to subprime giant Countrywide Financial, which was saved from bankruptcy by Bank of America."  Hello, Mr. Chris Dodd, number one receiver of campaign contributions from Fannie Mae. 
  • "At the same time, the Clinton administration was pushing Fannie and her brother Freddie Mac to buy more mortgages from low-income households.
  • The Clinton-era corruption, combined with unprecedented catering to affordable-housing lobbyists.

        • Then he joined Lazard Freres and Co., where he worked for 11 years and became a general partner.
      2. In 1991 he became Fannie's Mae's Vice Chairman, a post he left in 1996 in order to join the Clinton Administration as the Director of the U.S. Office of Management and Budget, where he served until 1998. In 1999, he returned to Fannie Mae as CEO, "the first black man to head a Fortune 500 company."[1]
      3. On December 21, 2004 Raines accepted what he called "early retirement" [2] from his position as CEO while U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission investigators continued to investigate alleged accounting irregularities.
        • He is accused by The Office of Federal Housing Enterprise Oversight (OFHEO), the regulating body of Fannie Mae, of abetting widespread accounting errors, which included the shifting of losses so senior executives, such as himself, could earn large bonuses [3].
      4. In 2006, the OFHEO announced a suit against Raines in order to recover some or all of the $50 million in payments made to Raines based on the overstated earnings [4] initially estimated to be $9 billion but have been announced as 6.3 billion.[2].
        • Civil charges were filed against Raines and two other former executives by the OFHEO in which the OFHEO sought $110 million in penalties and $115 million in returned bonuses from the three accused.[5] On April 18, 2008, the government announced a settlement with Raines together with J. Timothy Howard, Fannie's former chief financial officer, and Leanne G. Spencer, Fannie's former controller. The three executives agreed to pay fines totaling about $3 million, which will be paid by Fannie's insurance policies. Raines also agreed to donate the proceeds from the sale of $1.8 million of his Fannie stock and to give up stock options. The stock options however have no value. Raines also gave up an estimated $5.3 million of "other benefits" said to be related to his pension and forgone bonuses.[6]
      5. An editorial in The Wall Street Journal called it a "paltry settlement" which allowed Raines and the other two executives to "keep the bulk of their riches." [7] In 2003 alone, Raines's compensation was over $20 million.[3]
      6. A statement issued by Raines said of the consent order, "is consistent with my acceptance of accountability as the leader of Fannie Mae and with my strong denial of the allegations made against me by OFHEO."[4]
      7. In a settlement with OFHEO and the Securities and Exchange Commission, Fannie paid a record $400 million civil fine. Fannie, which is the largest American financier and guarantor of home mortgages, also agreed to make changes in its corporate culture and accounting procedures and ways of managing risk. [8]
      8. In June 2008 The Wall Street Journal reported that Franklin Raines was one of several public officials who received below market rates loans at Countrywide Financial because the corporation considered the officeholders "FOA's"--"Friends of Angelo" (Countrywide Chief Executive Angelo Mozilo). He received loans for over $3 million while CEO of Fannie Mae. [5]
  • From Slate reveals the Offenders from the Republican side too but it mentions all the money that the DemoRats got paid and not the Republicans...I wonder why?...the DemoRats became MultiMillionaires!

  • At the top of the list we must place Franklin D. Raines, chairman and chief executive officer of Fannie Mae from 1998 to 2004. Raines, who served as director of the Office of Management and Budget under President Clinton, had previously worked at Fannie Mae as vice chairman. Before that, he worked on the Clinton transition team following the 1992 election. Before that, he was a general partner at Lazard Freres & Co. Raines, as the Wall Street Journal reported, was forced to leave Fannie Mae in 2004, when regulators discovered it had broken accounting rules "in an effort to conceal fluctuations in profit and hadn't maintained adequate risk controls." The New York Times reported two year ago that regulators "have said that of the $90 million paid to Mr. Raines from 1998 to 2003 at least $52 million—more than half—was tied to bonus targets that were reached by manipulating accounting." Raines agreed to a $24.7 million settlement with a federal regulator in exchange for charges being dropped, but he admitted no wrongdoing.

  • Next up is Jamie S. Gorelick, whose official résumé describes her as "one of the longest serving Deputy Attorneys General of the United States," a position she held during the Clinton administration. Although Gorelick had no background in finance, she joined Fannie Mae in 1997 as vice chair and departed in 2003. For her trouble, Gorelick collected a staggering $26.4 million in total compensation, including bonuses. Federal investigators (PDF) would later say that "Fannie Mae's management directed employees to manipulate accounting and earnings to trigger maximum bonuses for senior executives from 1998 to 2003." The New York Times would call the manipulations an "$11 billion accounting scandal." Gorelick, it should be noted, has never been charged with any wrongdoing.

    Republicans also proved willing to serve Fannie Mae. Robert B. Zoellick, current head of the World Bank, has served President Reagan, President Bush 1, and President Bush 2 as a trade representative, deputy secretary of state, deputy secretary of the treasury, deputy chief of staff, and so on. Zoellick's first Fannie Mae tour of duty was from 1983 to 1985, when he was a vice president. His second tour was 1993 to 1997, and his title was executive vice president in charge of lobbying, public affairs, and affordable housing. According to a July 23, 1997, report in the American Banker, Zoellick "has used his close ties to Republicans in Congress, such as Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich, R-Ga., to defend Fannie Mae from new taxes."

    John Buckley worked at Fannie Mae for almost 10 years (1991-2001) but took a leave of absence to serve as Bob Dole's communications director during his 1996 run for the presidency. Before Fannie Mae, he worked at the National Republican Congressional Committee, served as press secretary to Rep. Jack Kemp, R-N.Y., deputy press secretary during the Reagan-Bush 1984 campaign, and press secretary to Lewis Lehrman when he ran for governor of New York. He hails from the political Buckley family, his uncles being William F. and James.

    Moving back across the aisle, let's say hello to Mr. Democrat James A. Johnson, who ran Fannie Mae from 1991 to 1998, served as vice chairman from 1990 to 1991, and earlier worked as a managing director at Lehman Bros. and for Vice President Walter F. Mondale. He currently leads the American Friends of Bilderberg and made news earlier this summer when he had to resign as vice-presidential-candidate vetter for Barack Obama "as new details emerged about loans Mr. Johnson received from mortgage lender Countrywide Financial Corp.," according to the Wall Street Journal. In his 1997 profile of Johnson, "The Velvet Fist of Fannie Mae," by Richard W. Stevenson writes that Johnson "hires lobbyists from both sides of the political aisle—last year the company had 36 registered lobbyists making its case in the hallways and hearing rooms of Congress. ... And Mr. Johnson has made Fannie Mae both a launching pad and a landing strip for officials moving in and out of politics and Government in Washington." According to the voluminous "Report of the Special Examination of Fannie Mae" by the Office of the Federal Housing Enterprise Oversight (warning, extra large PDF!), Johnson earned nearly $21 million from Fannie Mae in 1998.

    Moving down the Democratic Party food chain, we meet William M. Daley, son of former Chicago Mayor Richard J. Daley and brother of current Chicago Mayor Richard M. Daley. Daley worked as special counsel to President Clinton and chairman of Al Gore's 2000 presidential campaign. He also served as a Clinton secretary of commerce from 1997 to 2000, and earlier as president of Amalgamated Bank in Chicago. He is now an executive at JPMorgan Chase & Co. Daley was appointed to the Fannie Mae board in 1993 by President Clinton.

  • As part of the "leave no Democrat behind" campaign, Johnson's Fannie Mae hired Walter Hubbell, son of Webster L. Hubbell, in 1994. Walter Hubbell got his job, the Times' Stevenson reports, "after Mr. Johnson and other executives received calls from Administration officials—including Mickey Kantor, who was then the United States trade representative—urging them to do so. At the time, the White House had undertaken an effort to help the Hubbell family financially after the senior Mr. Hubbell's resignation from the Justice Department." He got a slot in the marketing department, where Johnson said he was an ''outstanding" employee.

    But Fannie Mae is nothing if not ecumenical. According to the Associated Press, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac have spent $170 million on lobbying in the past decade. "Fannie Mae's 51-member lobbying stable" includes "former Reps. Tom Downey, D-N.Y., and Ray McGrath, R-N.Y.; Steve Elmendorf, a Democratic political strategist and former congressional aide; and Donald Fierce, a longtime GOP operative. Freddie Mac's list of 91 lobbyists includes former Reps. Vin Weber, R-Minn., and Susan Molinari, R-N.Y." The AP notes the Fannie Mae ties enjoyed by McCain campaign manager Rick Davis and Arthur B. Culvahouse Jr., who helped in McCain's veep search. According to Politico, McCain economic adviser Aquiles Suarez worked as Fannie Mae's director of government and industry relations, and McCain finance co-chairman Frederic V. Malek spent time on the Freddie Mac board.

    A totally brilliant and prescient Washingtonian article from 2002 by Ross Guberman harvests a bunch of politicos who benefited from and supported Fannie Mae. Arne Christenson, a former Newt Gingrich aide, was senior vice president for regulatory policy. Tom Donilon was Fannie Mae's executive vice president for law and policy and secretary to the board of directors until 2005. He worked in the Clinton State Department and as part of the 1992 Clinton-Gore transition. William Maloni, Fannie Mae senior adviser, worked on the Hill as chief of staff for Rep. Richard Baker, R-La. Of Fannie Mae's board of directors, Guberman writes that it is "political by design."

    The company's charter gives the President the right to appoint five of the board's 18 members. The idea was to ensure that Fannie fulfilled its public mission. Today the five appointees, considered big winners in the capital's game of spoils, promote the interests of Fannie's shareholders. Recent directors include Ann McLaughlin Korologos, Ronald Reagan's Labor secretary; Ken Duberstein, Reagan's chief of staff; Bill Daley, former Commerce Secretary and Gore spokesman during the 2000 election controversy; and Jack Quinn, counsel to Bill Clinton and lawyer to pardoned fugitive Mark Rich. [Emphasis added.]



    The bipartisan Fannie Mae gang appears to have broken few, if any, laws. Their crime was to have practiced—without any thought of the consequences—"access capitalism," which Michael Lewis defined in the New Republic as "a neat solution for people who don't have a whole lot to sell besides their access, but who don't want to appear to be selling their access."

    The easiest way to end this article—and I'll take it—is to cite Michael Kinsley's tidy formulation: "The scandal in Washington isn't what's illegal. It's what's legal."

    Addendum, Sept. 17: International Economy magazine identified additional Fannie Mae enablers in its July-August 1999 issue in an article by Owen Ullmann titled "Crony Capitalism: American Style." Ullmann fingers Duane Duncan, a Fannie Mae vice president who previously worked as staff director for Rep. Richard Baker, R-La., who chaired the House banking subcommittee; Ellen Seidman, Fannie Mae senior vice president, who worked as director of the Office of Thrift Supervision; Wendy Sherman, president of the Fannie Mae Foundation, who was counselor to Secretary of State Madeleine Albright; Dan Crippen, who lobbied for Fannie Mae after heading the Congressional Budget Office; Ann Logan, executive vice president, who was a policy adviser to Sen. Edward Kennedy, D-Mass., in the 1980s; Thomas Nides, senior vice president, who served as chief of staff to both U.S. Trade Representative Mickey Kantor and Speaker Tom Foley, D-Mass.; and Eli Segal, director, who was a senior adviser to President Clinton.

  • Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac Invest in Democrats

    Published by Lindsay Renick Mayer on July 16, 2008 5:27 PM

    (For an updated chart that includes contributions from Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae's PACs and employees to ALL lawmakers back to 1989, including to their leadership PACs, go here.) and data The federal government recently announced that it will come to the rescue of Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae, two embattled mortgage buyers that for years have pursued a lobbying strategy to get lawmakers on their side. Both companies have poured money into lobbying and campaign contributions to federal candidates, parties and committees as a general tactic, but they've also directed those contributions strategically. In the 2006 election cycle, Fannie Mae was giving 53 percent of its total $1.3 million in contributions to Republicans, who controlled Congress at that time. This cycle, with Democrats in control, they've reversed course, giving the party 56 percent of their total $1.1 million in contributions. Similarly, Freddie Mac has given 53 percent of its $555,700 in contributions to Democrats this cycle, compared to the 44 percent it gave during 2006.

    Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac have also strategically given more contributions to lawmakers currently sitting on committees that primarily regulate their industry. Fifteen of the 25 lawmakers who have received the most from the two companies combined since the 1990 election sit on either the House Financial Services Committee; the Senate Banking, Housing & Urban Affairs Committee; or the Senate Finance Committee. The others have seats on the powerful Appropriations or Ways & Means committees, are members of the congressional leadership or have run for president. Sen.
    Chris Dodd (D-Conn.), chairman of the Senate banking committee, has received the most from Fannie and Freddie's PACs and employees ($133,900 since 1989). Rep. Paul Kanjorski (D-Pa.) has received $65,500. Kanjorski chairs the House Financial Services Subcommittee on Capital Markets, Insurance and Government-Sponsored Enterprises, and Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae are government-sponsored enterprises, or GSEs.

Privacy 4 Left ONLY-Bill O'Reilly Hack Exposed!

Why is that the Left not only campaigns against the Bush Admistration for alleged violations of Privacy rights against Americans and our enemy Jihadists but goes to the extreme length of blowing the cover of Covert US activities like those used by the National Security Agency used to track terrorist financial activity on this pretext(Thank You Eric Lichtblau of the New York Times)?  Additionally Dana Priest also of a MSMer exposes the existance of secret prisons to hold Terrorists in Eastern European Countries thus weakening our Allies' resolve to help us fight the War on Terror.  The Left claims that the US Government is using Public Library Cards to spy on American citizens but to date the only Americans who have had their privy rights violated are  those working to protect us in our National Security Agencies and Center Right Conservatives like Governor Palin and Bill O'Reilly.  The Factor's website was hacked into exposing the Privacy of Fox News' Audience.  The Left among other things is guilty of the Pot calling the Kettle Black.  Here is the Story on O'Reilly's Website Hack from the Uk Register:
 

  • Two days after someone broke into the email account of vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin, unknown intruders have hacked the website of conservative commentator Bill O'Reilly and posted personal details of more than 200 of its subscribers.
  • The breach into BillOreilly.com came as retaliation for remarks O'Reilly made on Fox News condemning the attack on Palin's Yahoo email account, according to Wikileaks, a site that makes it easy for whistleblowers, hackers and anyone else to leak documents.
  • As proof, Wikileaks posted a screenshot of the BillOreilly.com administrative interface that showed the names, email addresses, passwords, and home town of 20 subscribers of the website. In all, information belonging to 205 subscribers was intercepted, according to Eric Marston, CTO of Nox Solutions, the company that maintained the O'Reilly website.
  • The hack came in response to comments O'Reilly made on Fox News about the posting of contents of Palin's email account, including pictures of her daughter and her contact list.
  • "I'm not going to mention the website that posted this, but it's one of those despicable, slimy, scummy websites," O'Reilly said, according to this snippet from YouTube. "Everybody knows where this stuff is, OK, and they know the people who run the website, so why can't they go there tonight to the guy's house who runs it, put him in cuffs and take him down and book him?"
  • It's evident from the remark that no one bothered to tell O'Reilly that Wikileaks, the first site to publish the Palin email, is a multi-national, bulletproof organization that has successfully withstood serious take-down efforts before.
  • According to Marston, the hackers were able to access the unsecured list by trying a large number of variations of the website's administrative URL. He said all affected members have received an email and a phone call informing them of the breach and urging them to change their password anywhere they may have used it. No credit card information was stolen, and the site has since been completely locked down, Marston said.

  • While the information exposed on Wikileaks may seem minimal, it has the potential to imperil the BillOreilly.com subscribers listed in ways they may not have anticipated. A case in point is Carolyn Carpenter, 68, of Henderson, Nevada. The list showed she used a six-letter word from the English language to access her account. Early Friday evening, when told she should change all accounts that used the password, she replied: "Oh damn, I use it all over the place." ®

0bama heckled by African Americans in Miami


Please visit www.michaeldefeatssatan.com for information
on Oprah and Obamas destruction of the black race and the rest of the world.

CBS
(CORAL GABLES, FLA.) - Barack Obama’s rally at the University of Miami was briefly interrupted today after a dozen or so protestors began to wave homemade signs.
The group of mostly African American men held signs that read, “Blacks against Obama”, “Jesse Jackson hates Obama”, “Obama for abortions”, “Obama for gay marriage” and “Obama endorsed by the KKK.”
They are said to be part of a Miami based group called “Michael Warns”.
The crowd of over 5,000 people at the event shouted the hecklers down by chanting “Yes we can!”
Obama briefly paused and tried to calm the crowd down by telling the crowd to hold on. “Hey young people out there – it’s no problem for you to put your signs up, but let everybody – let me finish what I have to say, alright?,” he told the protesters as he stood on stage.
The group was escorted out shortly afterwards by security. “Alright guys, see ya,” Obama said as they left, “Alright, let’s get back to work.”
A similar group of hecklers appeared at an Obama event in Tampa in August.
 
CNN writes reports on this group too
 
From Michael Warns website.
Reasons not to vote for 0bama
1.  Make Child Support Federal
2.  Believes in Abortion
3.  Believes in Gay Marriage
 Michael is an African American who heads up a group based in Miami and is against Barack 0bman and 0prah.  Michael Warns is the leader of Blacks Against 0bama who protests 0bama during speeches.  Michael Warns theology is really out there he does represent a segment of the African American population who against 0bama.  This is Most interesting and although Michael(audio here) has some very very usual theories he does represent a list a small subset of African Americans whose heart is in the right place.  This group along with MLK jr's niece Alveda King and other ProLife American Americans like Rev. Clenard Childress of www.BlackGenocide.org.

Video of ??Hacker's Dem Dad who's a "Victim"!?

Here is video from News Channel WREG-TV in Memphis on the investigation:
 
HT Gateway Pundit who has blown this story out of the Water!
 
David Kernell has an APPARENT Connection with Barack 0bama's camping Manager, David Plouffe
per Terry Franks' reader who has amazing info on this story

There is an apparent connection between David Kernell and David Plouffe. If you do a Technorati search for “david kernell” (http://www.technorati.com/search/%22david+kernell%22?authority=a4&language=en) and then click on Videos about David Kernell, the first video you see if of David Plouffe (Campaign manager for Obaman). He probably did the video for Plouffe.

This is not a casual connection.

Best regards,

Dave Kittley

 
 

Update to my Previous Post of the concerning the UK Register who Introduced us the Gabriel Ramglia the Proxy Server Administrator whose serve provide the info which helped in track possible connection with Kernell!

  • Within hours of this story posting, Ramuglia received a phone call from an FBI special agent from the Anchorage, Alaska, field office.
  • "He just wanted to make sure I wasn't losing the logs," Ramuglia said, referring to the special agent. The two are scheduled to speak again soon to coordinate the turning over the logged information.

Mike Kernell Says Son David Kernell Contacted
Photos of David Kernell, the son of democratic state representative from Tennessee Mike Kernell, have begun to surface online.

But it is the reason why these pictures are showing up on the web that has sparked interest.

20-year-old David Kernell is at the center of an online investigation into who broke in to the email account of Republican vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin and posted some of the contents to Wikileaks.According to a report from The Tennessean, representative Mike Kernell told a reporter that his son, David, is the individual believed to be among those reponsible for the hacked account.

According to the newspaper, David Kernell is a student at University of Tennessee-Knoxville. The FBI and Secret Service have yet to publicly identify David Kernell as a suspect.Post Chronicle

 
From Wired Yesterday:
The story was briefly posted Wednesday to the 4chan forum where the hack first surfaced. Bloggers have connected the handle of the poster, "Rubico," to an e-mail address, and tentatively identified the owner as a college student in Tennessee.

The student by phone because his number is unlisted. His father, when reached at home, said he could not talk about the matter and would have no comment. The father is a Democratic state representative in Tennessee.

Webmaster of a proxy service called Ctunnel.com, which may have been used by a hacker to illegally access the e-mail account of Republican vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin, is working with law enforcement authorities to track down the person behind the break-in.

Gabriel Ramuglia, the Athens, Ga.-based Webmaster of Ctunnel, said today that URLs in screenshots of Palin’s e-mail — photos were posted online yesterday on 4chan.org and other sites — suggested that whoever accessed her Yahoo! account had used his proxy service.

Ramuglia said in an interview that he was contacted by FBI officials last night and asked to retain computer logs of the last few days’ activity on his service and make sure nothing is deleted. Ramuglia, who normally stores only a week’s worth of log data, said he would not have deleted anything anyway because of the illegal nature of what had happened.

Ramuglia is now in the process of importing more than 80GB worth of log data into a database for analysis. He said he’s reasonably confident he can help authorities sift through the logs and trace access back to the originating IP address — especially because the self-professed hacker has admitted using just one proxy service to access Palin’s account.
