Early, but: Sarah for President

Yes, I understand that Sarah Palin is the VP nominee. As such, there is no guarantee she will become VP let alone President. However, there is the chance that her nomination has woken a REAL sense of HOPE and a legitimate opportunity for CHANGE.

However, lets assume that McCain and Palin win this November. There is little expectation that McCain will be a two term president. In some circles, there is little expectation that McCain will live long enough to server a full term.

Regardless of how that plays out, a McCain/Palin win in 08 would likely be the beginning of Palins election in 2012 (running against Hillary of course).

Of course she would probably have no competition if she were to have to fill in for McCain for health related issues during their first term. But, if she didn't, I'm pretty confident that she could play her cards right, get some action instead of talk, and have the entire country BEGGING her to run in 2012.

So, there you have it. My latest conspiracy theory. Of course the conspiracy this time is that not only is America ready for a woman president, but we're ready for the RIGHT woman president. Take that how you will, but we truly seem to be on the verge of a good thing here.

The Mortgage Crisis

The mortgage crisis could not have been an accident. The people that "approved" the mortgages KNEW that:

  1. Were going to have prohibitive payments in 12 to 24 months
  2. Were going to be on property worth far less than what they sold for within 12 to 24 months
  3. Would be forclosed on because they couldn't sell for the amount of the mortgage

Bankers blame it on homeowners making bad decisions or not having foresight. However, those bankers get very uncomfortable when you point out that these mortgage were all approved by bankers that get PAID to know the market and it's trends.

When you point out that regular people like you and I saw this coming back in 2004/2005, they start to tap their fingers and look around nervously.

The short answer is that they set us up and we don't know "why".

Mortgages traditionally require people prove they can make the payments even when the market is not headed down. The banks knew exactly what they were doing...

The Media On It's Knees

Why is it that the mainstream media is clamoring on their knees in front of Obama as if their unwarranted affection will somehow lower his zipper and give them what they so desperately seem to want?
