The
Grand Republican Swing to the Left… Swing and a Miss!
Over the past several years, as
government grew, and the media bashed conservative views, the
Republican party embarked on an experiment to attempt to gain a
greater “market share” of the electorate. This experiment was
launched with many theories and assumptions, and was doomed before it
began. I would like to suggest that in light of the November 4th,
2008 defeat… the experiment is over, a total failure. Let’s
break down experiment together and try to find out what went wrong,
and why.
Theory
1: In order to get more voters to vote
Republican, The GOP needs to try to influence the independent voters,
the moderate voters as well as conservative Democrats.
Assumption
1a: Moderates, independents, and
conservative Democrats are “between” the Republican and Democrat
parties, somehow more conservative than Democrats, however more
liberal than Republicans.
Assumption
1b: In order to influence them, you need to
compromise your views and move your views and talking points closer
to the more liberal Democratic party.
The End Begins november 22, 2008 End the Fed! will announce the initiation of a
grassroots, unfunded, transpartisan citizens movement for Sound Money with rallies at every Federal Reserve Bank and office.
This will begin a campaign of support for the passage of H.R. 2755, Federal Reserve Board Abolition Act

The financial crisis currently facing our nation is a complex issue leaving many citizens wondering what is the primary cause and who is responsible for this crisis.Having worked in financial services industry as a licensed Chartered Financial Consultant and business owner for over 25 years I would like to try to offer a brief explanation on the current financial crisis.
The scenario leading up to the crisis breaks down like this:ACORN, a left wing “housing-rights organization”, partially subsidized by your tax dollars, is one of the primary culprits.In 1994 ACORN filed a law suit against traditional financial requirements used by banks and lending institutions when approving home loans.The lawyer representing ACORN was Barack Obama.Because of this lawsuit, in 1995, the Clinton administration pushed through new regulatory revisions that greatly expanded the Community Reinvestment Act or “CRA”.CRA was a law enacted under the Carter administration to help poor individuals obtain home mortgages.These 1995 home mortgage regulatory revisions led to the development of the sub prime mortgage market.These changes resulted in “NINJA loans”, home loans given to people with “no income, no job and no assets“. HUD reported recently that over 5 million illegal immigrants fraudulently qualified for these sub prime loans.
