Veterans for Freedom (The Big Bang)

July 6, 2008 · 2 Comments

 

Veterans for Freedom is going to do a little fighting on their own soon!  Watch out for them all over your TV sets in the coming weeks.  These men and women should know what they’re talking about cause they have been there and did that.  These brave men and women has put their lives on the line for their country The United States of America and is our Hero.

 

Its being reported by ABC that Vets for Freedom is spending $1.5 million on ads that will run on national cable television and in five states in July — the first set of ads in a multimillion dollar campaign in coming months touting the troop buildup, Pete Hegseth, the 25,000-member group’s chairman, said in a telephone interview Saturday. Aimed at “informing the American people about the truth regarding progress in Iraq and Afghanistan,” the issue ads will feature veterans of the war describing the accomplishments they’ve seen since the buildup began in early 2007.

 

Obama has had problems with his comment that the surge wasn’t working and that he would pull troops out of Iraq within 16 months of his term as president.  He then changed that to he would first check with the military leaders in Iraq and would change according to whats happen on the ground.  Now the last couple days he seem to want to change his word again.  No one knows what Obama will do or say next!  He is such a flip-flopper and lier!

 

If we want protection and freedom to go about our lives without government telling us everything we can or can not do we better vote for a known candidate that is proud of his country and has a wife that’s proud of The United States of America.  Vote; Sen. John McCain for President!

Obama joins Chris Dodd by getting a sweeter than normal mortgage deal

July 6, 2008 · 1 Comment

Christopher Dodd and Kent Conrad, Democratic presidential contender Barack Obama got a sweeter than normal deal on his mortgage: If VP is out for Chris Dodd for this, then shouldn’t president be out for Obama? 

The freshman Democratic senator received a discount. He locked in an interest rate of 5.625 percent on the 30-year fixed-rate mortgage, below the average for such loans at the time in Chicago. The loan was unusually large, known in banker lingo as a “super super jumbo.” Obama paid no origination fee or discount points, as some consumers do to reduce their interest rates.

Compared with the average terms offered at the time in Chicago, Obama’s rate could have saved him more than $300 per month.

Since 1990, Northern Trust employees have donated more than $739,000 to federal campaigns, including $71,000 to Obama, according to the Center for Responsive Politics.
