We want change!

It was a time of economic panic. The government had first caused a downturn and then meddled until the economy collapsed completely. The people demanded change.

Along came a glib, smooth talking newcomer. He had no governing experience to speak of, but promised the change his people sought. He also promised free health care, strict controls on guns and a massive redistribution of wealth from the few rich to the many poor. The people praised him, the press extolled him and vilified his opponent. Children sang songs about him and university students chanted his name.

He was elected, and all those changes came to pass, but not in the way most had imagined.

Because it was Germany, in 1933.

If that scares you, it should.

Thanks for the history lesson. Those who do not recall history are doomed to repeat it!

The largest input to the financial mess is the mishandling of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. There was one man who tried to stop it by putting on regulatory brakes. That was John McCain. He was stopped by the leadership of the banking committee. There are four people who received most of the funds from Fannie and Freddie as political contributions. Cristopher Dodd, Charles Schumer, Barrack Obama, and Barney Franks.
Remember. These four guys need to go. Don't elect Obama and then get the other three.
