You know what…all I ever hear from Fox these days is “anything” on Obama. Where is your fair and balanced. Everytime Obama is speaking you cover it for what seems an eternity…when McCain speaks you have someone on the side “interpreting” what he is saying without letting us see it for ourself. You appear to be slanting, and appear to be courting the left for ratings. It won’t be too long before I turn off Fox like I have NBC, ABC and CBS…it’s all up to you…be fair and balanced…all the time…for all the candidates and news or your the loser.

S2433 threatens US Sovreignty-bill sponsor Obama
The latest that you won’t hear in the msm, (aka – mainstream media)

(the major media’s cover-up of the bill, which makes levels of U.S. foreign aid spending subservient to the dictates of the United Nations, demonstrates the media’s desire to see Senator Obama elected to the presidency. ) http://bearcreekledger.com/2008/02/1…ax-bill-s2433/

An extremely dangerous bill sponsored by Senator Barack HUSSEIN Obama (reminder-his wife is on the board of the Council of Foreign Relations, and is why Obama has risen to such sudden stardom.) We are already throwing enough money into foreign aid without literally losing our sovreignty to the UN under this bill.

http://www.familysecuritymatters.org…php?id=1386596

Excerpts:

The legislation would commit the U.S. to spending 0.7 percent of gross national product on foreign aid, which amounts to a phenomenal 13-year total of $845 billion over and above what the U.S. already spends.

AND

In addition to seeking to eradicate poverty, that declaration commits nations to banning “small arms and light weapons”

AND

A global tax will clearly be necessary to force American taxpayers to provide the money.

For the actual bill, search for bill #S2433 at thomas.loc.gov
You can check on the bill’s status at the LOC site too.

Call your senators today and urge them to vote against this bill! when it comes up for a vote!! It won’t be long so call today!

http://www.senate.gov/general/contac…nators_cfm.cfm

Richard Lugar of Indiana – (202) 224-4814 is head of the committee that is rushing this bill through – so rather than urge him not to vote – you should voice your disgust of his treasonous act.

If you have friends and family in other states, pass this on. Especially those whose senators are up for re-election in ‘08:

If economy issue nr 1 it is not the best approach to advocate more free trading, thats a mojor drawback of MCCain. First you have to fix contructively your own house, otherwise nothing chances.

Jeremy- I can. How slight? Tell me that first? How much is “slight?” These people that make over $250, 000, well, if they own businesses they will have to make cuts to their workforce, meaning cutting the higher salaried people an/or number and then higher cheaper laborers. There’s one “logical” argument for you.

Laughing,
Jan,
Congress has made themselves a laughing stock. All puffed up about what they were going to do when they over took the place. oil/taxes/the war, on and on, they have done squat. It has nothing to do with Bush, they out number.
Congress’s rating are much lower than Mr. President.
The only idiots are those that believed they would do something, they never did before, oh yes, they get everyone to buy into the ROBIN HOOD theory, take my money and give to to others so they can sit home and eat drink and be merry.
not any more

It is in the Presidents interest not to accept any of the Democractic led bills. This way congress’s approval ratings hang around where his is at. President Bush is an idiot!!

Louise
So how does a slight increase in taxes for people making over $250,000 hurt the American people? It seems that one of our biggest economic problems right now is that there is a huge and growing schism between the rich and the poor in this country. To help the average American, it seems necessary to enact policies that close this gap. Can you find a logical error in my argument?

Rudy NYC- Bush vetoes? Give me a break. So what you are trying to tell me is that he needs to pass each and every bill that is proposed to him? Even the ones he didn’t like? Well, friend, how about also admitting that congress is at fault for not proposing bills that he would agree to? Huh? No? Of course not. It’s all his fault. Whatever.

The fact of the matter is the jobless rate wouldn’t be so bad if not for the rising costs of fuel. You’ve got to cut somewhere to offset the cost of the fuel prices.
