Gov. Sarah Palin’s closing remarks at Debate

.

What They’re Saying About Governor Sarah Palin at Wash U. Debate
Source: McCain/Palin website
“She Was Every Bit His Equal”
The New York Times’ David Brooks: “I thought she was every bit his equal. I thought she was fluid, confident, she struck her theme, just the regular old mom. But she handled the foreign policy issues. She did fine with Iraq. She did fine with Iran. She certainly hit energy often enough. I suspect Republicans are going to be quite pleased.” (David Brooks, PBS’ “Post-Debate Analysis,” 10/2/08)
Brooks: “She could do policy, she did quite well on the gubernatorial issues and did quite well on mentioning John McCain all the time, much more than Joe Biden who scarcely mentioned Barack Obama, she did quite well with that. I thought was just that style of me versus Washington. I thought it was quite effective for her in general. I suspect most people, there are a few more hallmark moments, Norman Rockwell moments but I suspect most people will really like that.” (David Brooks, PBS’ “Post-Debate Analysis,” 10/2/08)

“She’s Articulate, Quick, Detail-Oriented” With “Everyday American Appeal”
ABC’s Rick Klein: “[W]here has this Sarah Palin been? She’s articulate, quick, detail-oriented tonight.” (Rick Klein, “Live Debate” Blog, blogs.abcnews.com, 10/2/08)
Klein: “9:03 pm CT: ‘It’s so obvious that I’m a Washington outsider,’ Palin says. Again, better done than said, but undeniable. This line of attack, driving a wedge between Biden and Obama, is legit, though it can seem forced at times.” (Rick Klein, “Live Debate,” ABC News’ “Live Debate” Blog, blogs.abcnews.com, 10/2/08)

CNN’s Bill Schneider: “Palin is going after Biden over his comments that the wealthy should pay more taxes as a patriotic move. The Alaska governor has come to this debate fully armed.” (Bill Schneider, “Schneider: Attack, Counter Attack,” CNN’s “Political Ticker” Blog, www.cnn.com, 10/2/08)

The Washington Post’s Chris Cillizza: “Palin to Biden: ‘Can I call you Joe?’ GENIUS.” (Chris Cillizza, “Twittering The Showdown In St. Louis,” The Washington Post’s “The Fix” Blog, Washington Post Fix Blog, 10/2/08)
Cillizza: “Palin starts with a ‘kids soccer game’ story in regards the economy. Folksy — playing to her strengths.” (Chris Cillizza, “Twittering The Showdown In St. Louis,” Washington Post Fix Blog, 10/2/08)
Cillizza: “State of Alaska…taking on oil companies…this is good ground for her. The more she talks about reform, the better.” (Chris Cillizza, “Twittering The Showdown In St. Louis,” Washington Post Fix Blog, 10/2/08)

MSNBC’s Carrie Dann: “Here’s that folksy, everyday American appeal right out of the gate with Palin’s first answer. She says you can hear about the consequences of the tough economy just by asking parents at a hockey game on a Saturday afternoon … ‘You’re going to hear some fear’ about ‘the few investments some of us might have,’ she says.” (Carrie Dann, “The Palin McCain’s Been Talking About,” MSNBC’s “First Read” Blog, firstread.msnbc.msn.com, 10/2/08)

MSNBC’s Domenico Montanaro: “Good start on the first question from Palin. She was crisp and went right to those … soccer moms, if you will. She brought the economy to the middle class and said the barometer is how parents on the sidelines feel. There are likely a lot of nodding heads in some living rooms at home.” (Domenico Montanaro, “Palin, Off To Good Start,” MSNBC’s “First Read” Blog, firstread.msnbc.com, 10/2/08)

NBC’s Matthew Berger: “Those who have seen Palin debate in Alaska say she is very efficient, and you’re seeing that now. She’s taking Biden on directly, speaking at him and then turning to the camera to make her points.” (Carrie Dann, “Palin’s Efficiency,” MSNBC’s “First Read” Blog, firstread.msnbc.com, 10/2/08)

The New York Times’ Katharine Q. Seelye: “Ms. Palin makes a grab to be more pro-Israel than Mr. Biden, which seems to tick him off.” (Katharine Q. Seelye, “A Tense Moment,” The New York Times, 10/2/08)

The Atlantic’s Ambinder: “Palin is adept at keeping Biden on the offensive.” (Marc Ambinder, “The Debate: Liveblogging I,” The Atlantic’s “Marc Ambinder” Blog, marcambinder.theatlantic.com, 10/2/08)

Commentary’s Linda Chavez: “Palin is easier to listen to than Biden. First answer was, if not a home run, at least a double.” (Linda Chavez, “VP Mom,” Commentary’s “Contentions” Blog, www.commentarymagazine.com, 10/2/08)

Commentary’s Eric Trager: “Palin reminds Biden that he has often differed with Barack Obama on the Iraq war, and offers her respect for Biden’s previous positions. ‘I don’t know how you can defend his positions now.’ Brilliant.” (Eric Trager, “Her Best Moment Yet,” Commentary’s “Contentions” Blog, www.commentarymagazine.com, 10/2/08)
Trager: “She calls Biden out on voting for the war before he was against it. Biden has only himself to blame for setting Palin up with a meek explanation of why he authorized the war without (supposedly) supporting it. This is the knockout punch of the night thus far.” (Eric Trager, “I’m Such A Washington Outsider,” Commentary’s “Contentions” Blog, www.commentarymagazine.com, 10/2/08)

The Politico’s Jonathan Martin: “She knows all the wedges between Biden and Obama, including their votes on troop funding, and even drops in a reference to that Jon Stewart interview where the Delaware senator said he’d be honored to run with his colleague from Arizona.” (Jonathan Martin, “Palin Got Good Oppo Brief,” The Politico’s “Jonathan Martin” Blog, www.politico.com, 10/2/08)

Townhall’s Amanda Carpenter: “Palin says Obama’s vow to meet with foreign enemies goes ‘beyond naivate, [sic] beyond poor judgment. Diplomacy is hard work by serious people’ with guidelines and sanctions ‘before any kind of presidential summit would take place.'” (Amanda Carpenter, “Palin’s Smoking Obama On Foreign Policy,” Townhall.com, www.townhall.com, 10/2/08)

Commentary’s Jennifer Rubin: “Sarah Palin takes us back to the Bush-Cheney energy plan and reminds him that Obama voted for it. Then she goes back to her own record of getting tough with the oil company. Forget expectations, she might just be winning this. At least for now.” (Jennifer Rubin, “Energy Plan,” Commentary’s “Contentions” Blog, www.commentarymagazine.com, 10/2/08)

Wild Thing’s comment……..
I love how Fred Thompson put it like he did.
Many in the media are trying to say Biden won, but imo there is no way.

McCain Defends Sarah Palin…..The video is superb!

.

US Senate resoundingly passed Wall Street bailout Wednesday and now they hope the House of Representatives will follow suit.

Sen. Jim DeMint (Part 1)

Sen. Jim DeMint (Part 2)

Some of what he said transcribed but please if you can watch both videos they are not long. Thank you — Wild Thing

“This is why people are so upset. It’s because Congress is being dishonest and arrogant. We’re not being honest with them about how we got into this mess and we’re not being honest with them about what we need to get out of it. Mr. President, I strongly oppose this legislation. It takes our country in the wrong direction. It forces innocent taxpayers to bail out government policies and Wall Street mistakes. It asks the American people to take a leap of faith and trust people who have consistently misled them. Mr. President, I am deeply saddened by the tone of this debate. I’m afraid that many of the supporters of this bill have bullied people into supporting it and using fear. There may be good reason for fear. But I think that most people will agree that some of the statements have been reckless an irresponsible. Mr. President, I hope I’m wrong. And this bill will truly solve the problem. Let me say again i know every one of my colleagues are doing what they believe is right for America. But based on what I know I cannot in good conscience support it.”

Here are some of the special-interest provisions that are now part of the Wall Street bailout legislation. The bill started at 3 pages, grew to 106 pages, and is now 451 pages.
HERE is the PDF file of the bill.
New Tax Breaks ( So these are tax breaks, not earmarked spending. These things get tax breaks under this bill)
* Wooden Arrows designed for use by children (Sec. 503)
* 6 page package of earmarks for litigants in the 1989 Exxon Valdez incident, Alaska (Sec. 504)
Tax Breaks
* Virgin Island and Puerto Rican Rum (Section 308)
* American Samoa (Sec. 309)
* Mine Rescue Teams (Sec. 310)
* Mine Safety Equipment (Sec. 311)
* Domestic Production Activities in Puerto Rico (Sec. 312)
* Indian Tribes (Sec. 314, 315)
* Railroads (Sec. 316)
* Auto Racing Tracks (317)
* District of Columbia (Sec. 322)
* Wool Research (Sec. 325)

Roll Call VOTE names and States

Here’s a rundown of the recent government actions to help the economy, which have not worked and are driving our nation deeper and deeper into debt.
source: Senate Conservatives
Even a conservative estimate of these actions shows that at least $1.4 trillion in new debt has been imposed on American taxpayers.
And some quotes from Treasury Secretary Paulson where he predicts these actions will help the economy and protect taxpayers. His predictions have been wildly off the mark and have rightly destroyed his credibility.
The Stimulus Plan
Cost: $152 billion in direct spending

“I talked with knowledgeable people in all parts of the economy and reviewed the data with our economic team…. the potential cost of not acting has become too high. We must act now to support our economy this year. The president laid out today clear principles that should guide the creation of an effective growth package. We are focused on working with Congress to quickly reach consensus on a plan that gets cash to consumers and gives businesses incentives to invest, to grow and to hire. We know from experience that these policies work to stimulate growth in the short term. The package should be robust enough to make an impact this year and should be temporary, so that it doesn’t significantly impact our long-term fiscal position.” – Secretary Paulson, January 18, 2008

Bear Stearns
Cost: $29 billion in Federal Reserve non-recourse loans

“For some months now, reduced access to short term funding and liquidity issues have created turmoil in our capital markets. In the midst of these conditions, Bear Stearns found itself facing bankruptcy. The Federal Reserve acted promptly to resolve the Bear Stearns situation and avoid a disorderly wind-down. It is the job of regulators to come together to address times such as this; and we did so. Our focus was the stability and orderliness of our financial markets.” – Secretary Paulson, March 26, 2008

Housing Bill (H.R. 3221)
Cost: $42.5 billion in direct spending

“I commend the Senate for moving swiftly to pass important GSE legislation that will provide temporary authorities to give confidence to markets and will create a strong, independent regulator better able to address the risks these enterprises pose. [I]t is of the utmost importance to our market and economic stability that the GSE portions of this bill become law. These components are orders of magnitude more important to turning the corner on the housing correction.” – Secretary Hank Paulson, July 26, 2008

Fannie and Freddie Takeover
Cost: $200 billion in stock warrants

“I strongly endorse both the decision by FHFA Director Lockhart to place Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac into conservatorship and the actions taken by Treasury Secretary Paulson to ensure the financial soundness of those two companies. These necessary steps will help to strengthen the U.S. housing market and promote stability in our financial markets. I also welcome the introduction of the Treasury’s new purchase facility for mortgage-backed securities, which will provide critical support for mortgage markets in this period of unusual credit-market uncertainty.” – Federal Reserve Board Chairman Ben S. Bernanke, September 7, 2008

“Based on what we have learned about these institutions… I concluded that it would not have been in the best interest of the taxpayers for Treasury to simply make an equity investment in these enterprises…. And let me make clear what today’s actions mean for Americans and their families. Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac are so large and so interwoven in our financial system that a failure of either of them would cause great turmoil in our financial markets…. This turmoil would directly and negatively impact household wealth: from family budgets, to home values, to savings for college and retirement. A failure would affect the ability of Americans to get home loans, auto loans and other consumer credit and business finance. And a failure would be harmful to economic growth and job creation.” — Secretary Hank Paulson, September 7, 2008

Lehman Brothers
Cost: $87 billion in advances backed by the Federal Reserve
Other Costs: $70 billion (from Federal Reserve & FRBNY)

“I strongly support the actions announced tonight by SEC Chairman Chris Cox, Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke and market participants. These changes will strengthen and enhance our financial markets. These initiatives will be critical to facilitating liquid, smooth functioning markets, and addressing potential concerns in the credit markets.” The SEC action included requiring segregation of customer securities and case from those of Lehman. – Secretary Hank Paulson, September 14, 2008

AIG Bailout
Cost: $85 billion in loans

“We are working closely with the Federal Reserve, the SEC and other regulators to enhance the stability and orderliness of our financial markets and minimize the disruption to our economy. I support the steps taken by the Federal Reserve tonight to assist AIG in continuing to meet its obligations, mitigate broader disruptions and at the same time protect the taxpayers.” – Secretary Hank Paulson, September 16, 2008

Money Market Mutual Fund Backings
Cost: $50 billion in pledged assets

“The U.S. Treasury Department today announced the establishment of a temporary guaranty program for the U.S. money market mutual fund industry. For the next year, the U.S. Treasury will insure the holdings of any publicly offered eligible money market mutual fund – both retail and institutional – that pays a fee to participate in the program. President George W. Bush approved the use of existing authorities by Secretary Henry M. Paulson, Jr. to make available as necessary the assets of the Exchange Stabilization Fund for up to $50 billion to guarantee the payment in the circumstances described below.” – Treasury Department Press Release, September 19, 2008

Latest Plan: Socializing Bad Loans
Cost: $700 billion for the latest proposal

“The federal government must implement a program to remove these illiquid assets that are weighing down our financial institutions and threatening our economy. This troubled asset relief program must be properly designed and sufficiently large to have maximum impact…. I am convinced that this bold approach will cost American families far less than the alternative – a continuing series of financial institution failures and frozen credit markets unable to fund economic expansion. I believe many Members of Congress share my conviction. I will spend the weekend working with members of Congress of both parties to examine approaches to alleviate the pressure of these bad loans on our system, so credit can flow once again to American consumers and companies. Our economic health requires that we work together for prompt, bipartisan action.” – Secretary Hank Paulson, September 19, 2008

Total Paulson Bill to Date: $715.5 billion
New Requested Authority: $700 billion
Total Since January 2008: $1.416 TRILLION

“Wooden Arrows designed for use by children”
How does an emergency bill in order to avert an overnight collapse of the American way of life and of mom & apple pie get wool research, car racing and wooden arrows for children?
Are you kidding me!!?!
Get this Feinstein said out of the 95,000 calls to her office, 85,000 have said NAY. But she voted for it anyway. I guess forget what the people want and the people that voted for her.
I sent McCain a message. Not that it makes any difference, but I just wanted to tell him how disappointed I am in his voting for this. Especially when he says he is against pork.
Various contact information in case anyone wants it.
Here’s a link to the contact page on McCain’s campaign website:

Ho-bama voted for this as well, so both our Presidential candidates agreed.

A Special Message FROM……. Barack Obama’s Teleprompter

Wild Thing’s comment……….
LMAO this is sooooo great!!
I just love a teleprompter that has a mind of it’s own when it comes to B. Hussein Obama!
Besides all the other horrible things about HO-bama, to think of his meeting with leaders of other countries ( without his teleprompter) he will be a total embarrassment to our Nation.
If I was going to run for President of the USA, and had a speech problem like Obama has with his stammering I would go to a speech therapist and see if I could overcome this terrible communication problem. But then Obama is a person that cannot be told he is wrong, as we have seen in his special blog just for his whine about being picked on and his Obama Truth Squad in PA and MO.
Those on the left made a big deal of George W. Bush’s way of speaking, I actually like it. His way of lowering his voice and also making it breathy with the Texas drawl I love, to emphasis something he is saying reminds me of John Wayne.
What Obama does is something completely different, it shows his brain is not functioning. LOL I mean it, like it is skipping beats and unable to have a complete thought when he tries to speak and think at the same time. LOL I know that may sound weird but that is how I describe it.
Obama is NOT qualified for the job of President and this is yet just another thing to add to his list of how horrible the next 4 years would be if he does attains that goal.

Sing For Change

“Sing for Change chronicles a recent Sunday afternoon, when 22 children, ages 5-12, gathered to sing original songs in the belief that their singing would lift up our communities for the coming election. Light, hope, courage and love shine through these non-voting children who believe that their very best contribution to the Obama campaign is to sing.”

“Sing for Change was a confluence of hard work, good will, and shared vision. Inspired by ideas raised at a grassroots Obama fundraiser, a music teacher, Kathy Sawada, and the children composed and rehearsed the songs in less than two weeks. Several musicians heard of the effort and volunteered to accompany the children. Parents and older siblings designed and provided the T-Shirts and the banner. There’s a first for everything, but rarely do so many firsts come together at once: for the children and their parents, this is their first performance, first video, first banner, and first involvement with grassroots work on a presidential campaign.

As Sunday approached, a neighbor volunteered a home. Production wizards got wind of the project and offered their help in recordingit. The likes of Jeff Zucker, Holly Schiffer, Peter Rosenfeld, Darin Moran, Jean Martin, Andy Blumenthal, and Nick Phoenix rearranged schedules to participate. Holly Schiffer was able to get three High Definition cameras (Panasonic HVX250’s), and an AVID editing facility. When Jeff Zucker went to pick up the camera package, Ted Schilowitz happened to be there and offered a RED camera set up on a SteadiCam.

What we accomplished in a few hours on a Sunday afternoon embodies the nature of the Obama campaign: its grassroots inspiration, its inclusiveness, its community building. People pitched in quickly for a cause that resonated with them. There were not many conditions: “Think this is a good idea? Want to help? Great. Sunday at 12:00.” At the heart of the project were 22 children and their music. The willingness of all involved to come together for them was a testament to our hope, unity, courage, joy and belief in the future represented by these children.”

WE’RE GONNA CHANGE THE WORLD
Music and lyrics by Lily Campbell, age 9
We’re gonna spread happiness
We’re gonna spread freedom
Obama’s gonna change it
Obama’s gonna lead ’em
We’re gonna change it
And rearrange it
We’re gonna change the world.

SING FOR CHANGE
Music and lyrics by Kathy Sawada
Now’s the moment, lift each voice to sing
Sing with all your heart!
For our children, for our families,
Nations all joined as one.
Sing for joy and sing abundant peace,
Courage, justice, hope!
Sing together, hold each precious hand,
Lifting each other up;
Sing for vision, sing for unity,
Lifting our hearts to Sing!

Wild Thing’s comment………….
They’re seriously forming a CULT around Obama.
As part of their schoolwork, young children had to write poems praising Stalin, the Great Leader. They had poem writing contests, and the winner got to personally meet the Great Leader himself. Most of the poems were nauseating in how they fawned over this brutal murderer.
They wrote poems to this monster praising him, even as he condemned their parents to death or slave labor in Siberia.
It is creepy to watch the same cult build around 0bama.
This is overt political indoctrination of children isn’t cute at all, as it robs them of their very childhood. Not that the left hasn’t done that through the hypersexualization of society.
McCain will make the world a better place for children because he’s going to kill the terrorists. Obama would have some kind of sick love in with them.

….Thank you Mark for sending this to me.

Gov. Palin talks taxes and energy on Hannity’s radio show

Wild Thing’s comment……….
She is wonderful and I wanted you all to be able to hear this.

Nonpartisan???? Bias BIG TIME! ………..I say BS to this Gwen Ifill!
This totally biased woman should NOT be moderating the debate. it’s a complete sham. As far as “shedding light” on Obama – i doubt if her book will “shed light” on his communist associations and anti-American opinions.

The moderator of Thursday’s vice presidential debate between Democrat Sen. Joe Biden and GOP Gov. Sarah Palin is writing a book, to come out about the time the next president takes the oath of office, to “shed new light” on Democratic candidate Barack Obama.

Here she discusses her new book, “The Breakthrough: Politics and Race in the Age of Obama.”
Yes it is a book about her dear friend B. Hussein Obama and it will be released on January 20, 2009… Inaugural Day.
“veteran journalist Gwen Ifill surveys the American political landscape, shedding new light on the impact of Barack Obamas stunning presidential campaign and introducing the emerging young African American politicians forging a bold new path to political power. ”

Gwen Ifill on Sarah Palin speech at GOP Convention.Whhile watching this from the convention I sure don’t feel anything BUT BIAS!

Wild Thing’s comment………..
Sorry but ……………. WTF??!!!!!
When Gwen starts to show her obvious bias, Sarah should stop, read the excerpts and simply state,
“Gwen, I’d like to answer your question, but as you and America can see by these quotes your obviously an Obama voter. How fair is that ladies and gentleman? “
This is a HUGE conflict of interest. Doesn’t the McCain campaign have a research staff? I get so sick of watching republicans willingly play the part of punching bag. I read Gwen has a broken ankle, can’t she bow on and use that as an excuse. A flimsy one but all the same it could be an excuse.
How was she ever allowed to be selected to moderate this debate, and what kind of total absence of integrity allowed her to accept?
Oh, wait, silly me, why do I even ask such questions?
If the country wanted to be fair, we’d let Ifil do her thing, but then Rush Limbaugh gets to moderate the second Presidential debate.

The U.S. Senate will vote on the $700 billion financial rescue bill on Wednesday, just two days after the House of Representatives rejected it. The vote will take place around 9PM ET tonight..
Market Watch
The package before the Senate will be similar to the House version, with these additions, the New York Times reported in its online edition:
* The higher limit for insured bank deposits sought by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp., which asked to raise the cap to $250,000 from $100,000, to quell opposition by individual and small-business depositors.
* Tax breaks for businesses and alternative energy, part of a package that has been caught in a stalemate in the House of Representatives. The Senate version of the gridlocked tax legislation would cost more than $100 billion and extend and expand many individual and business tax breaks, including tax credits for the production and use of renewable energy sources, like solar energy and wind power, the Times said. It would also extend the business tax credit for research and development, expand the child tax credit, protect millions of families from the alternative minimum tax and provide tax relief to victims of recent floods, tornadoes and severe storms, according to the Times..
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., said details of the proposal wouldn’t be available until Wednesday, the Times reported.
If the Senate approves the package, it would go to the House, which doesn’t reconvene until noon Eastern on Thursday.

(1)Motion to concur on the House message, H.R. 2095, Rail Safety;
(2)a Dorgan amendment relating to H.R. 7081, the U.S. – India Nuclear agreement;
(3)a Bingaman amendment relating to H.R. 7081, the U.S. – India Nuclear agreement;
(4)passage of H.R. 7081, the U.S. – India Nuclear agreement;
(5)a Dodd amendment to H.R. 1424, relating to the bailout package;
(6)passage of H.R. 1424, the bailout.

from Quin Hillyer at The American Spectator

“The Senate tomorrow will attach the Wall Street bailout to a “must pass” tax extender bill. This is dirty pool. When you are talking about the single most significant growth of government power EVER, you should let it sink or swim on its own. You don’t attach it to a goodie basket and dare the other chamber to vote against it. To do so is a cheap, despicable tactic. It is the tactic of people without the courage of their convictions — the tactic of cowards. Yes, cowards. I am utterly disgusted with McConnell and the entire Senate leadership. This is not the way to handle legislations as serious as this is. If the House GOP had any guts, then if the Senate sends the House the bill in this form — thus also making a mockery, via legerdemain, of the requirement that such financial bills should start in the House — MORE of the House GOP than before should vote against it, in protest against this sort of hardball pressure.

I think every conservative in the country should raise holy hell about this. AGAINST this tactic. WHATEVER you think about the underlying bailout, this BS is utterly insulting.”

Wild Thing’s comment…….
Attaching this to another piece of legislation is just wrong.
Check out this section of the bill;

SEC. 112. COORDINATION WITH FOREIGN AUTHORITIES AND CENTRAL BANKS.

The Secretary shall coordinate, as appropriate, with foreign financial authorities and central banks to work toward the establishment of similar programs by such authorities and central banks. To the extent that such foreign financial authorities or banks hold troubled assets as a result of extending financing to financial institutions that have failed or defaulted on such financing, such troubled assets qualify for purchase under section 101.

This means we’ll be buying the bad loans of FOREIGNERS, not just us.
On Kudlow he said it was revealed Paulson would not support it and Bush would veto it if it had in it a provision to stop the above from happening!
Who do they represent, us Americans or some set of globalist masters?
I always thought that the rumors of globalism was tinfoil-hat material but what was tinfoil yesterday seems to be breaking news today!
They don’t deserve $700 billion, they deserve jail if anything.

Cynthia McKinney says 5000 executed Katrina used as cover.

Newsvine

Presidential candidate for the Green Party, Cynthia McKinney announced for the first time on Sunday that she has received information that some 5000, mostly male, possibly prisoners were killed execution style, by single gunshot to the head, using the tragic events of hurricane Katrina as a cover.

Candidate McKinney made the announcement at a conference in Oakland, Ca, for the Critical Resistance 10 on Sunday. While speaking she informed the audience that she has received information from a sources that were involved in the clean-up and disposal of the thousands of bodies. According to the source; who wishes to remain nameless at this time, he was charged by the Department of Defense with the task of processing the personal information into DOD computers and then dumping the bodies into a Louisiana swamp. McKinney also claims she has spoken to unnamed members of the Red Cross that this event did in fact take place.

Wild Thing’s comment………
LOL So where are the friends and relatives wondering where they’ve disappeared to? No letters since 2005? She’s barking at the moon insane.
Maybe she can be the next “moderator” for the presidential debates.
Democrat Culture Of Corruption….and fruitcakes that nobody wants….LOL
Not to worry, the 5000 dead felons will STILL be casting a vote for 0bama. It’s only fair.
