POPSPentagon Wants $450 Billion Increase in Spending ...realizing that Obama might come in with a knife. Note the quote from Rabbi Dov Zakheim (neoconservative and PNAC member) on who's watch billions were lost and "unaccounted for" , in the Pentagon's black book-keeping. (On Sept. 11th the side of the Pentagon destroyed included the accountants and records of the Pentagon Budget Office!) Talk about Wall Street fraud, here is another black hole. Zakheim should be brought up on fraud charges. No comptroller of any corporation would get away with the kind of loss and unaccounted for spending (e.g. Enron). There is no accountability in government, especially the Pentagon. Everything is just fine is the message we get when outrageous abuses take place with taxppayers' money.

POPSIllinois, The State That Lags Economically
As a resident of Illinois, I have seen first hand what the effects of Obama's "change" have been. In 2003, Obama voted to raise the state corporate income tax by $59 million for industries that use heavy machinery. The tax hit consumers of oil, coal, other natural resources Voted for a property tax hike to increase patronage employees' pay. The bill, costing taxpayers $31 million per year, was vetoed only to be overridden by the senate and house. In 2004, Obama voted for yet another state income-tax increase that hit Illinois businesses for an additional $29 million per year. In addition, Obama also voted for increased real estate sales taxes and a computer software sales tax hike that cost Illinois consumers and home buyers a combined $95 Million. Obama also supported a 33% increase in licensing fees on Illinois Residents. In a single massive bill in 2004, Obama voted to increase over 300 TAXES AND FEES Assessed on professionals and businesses operating under state license

We are on the verge of rewarding the party and the man who laid the groundwork for this fiasco with control of the government. Yes, Wall Street was greedy, but the Democratic Party and people like Barack Obama, Barney Frank, Chris Dodd, Greg Meeks, Franklin Raines and so many more plowed the field so that greed could grow. Remember that on election day. Get angry. :mad: LINKS: More from AJ Strata, who notes Obama saying that the point was to spread the risk not just across America, but the globe. That turned out real good, didn't it?
