REMEMBER JAN 3 2007 !!!!!

 I usually don't  dive into Party politics as I'm an independent.  However, I've noticed a lot of misinformation coming from various folks from the Democrat party and I want to lay some facts on  you.  Instead of blaming EVERYTHING on Bush! Bush! Bush! How about we remember that

 on January 3rd, 2007, the day the Democrats took over the Senate and the Congress: The DOW Jones closed at 12,621.77 The GDP for the previous quarter was 3.5% The Unemployment rate was 4.6% George Bush's Economic policies SET A RECORD of 52 ...STRAIGHT MONTHS ...of JOB CREATION! Remember that day... January 3rd, 2007 was the day that Barney Frank took over the House Financial Services Committee and Chris Dodd took over the Senate Banking Committee. The economic meltdown that happened 15 months later was in what part of the economy? BANKING AND FINANCIAL SERVICES! THANK YOU DEMOCRATS (especially Barney ) for taking us from 13,000 DOW, 3.5 GDP and 4.6% Unemployment...to this CRISIS by (among MANY other things) dumping 5-6 TRILLION Dollars of toxic loans on the economy from YOUR Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac FIASCOES! (BTW: Bush asked Congress 17 TIMES to stop Fannie & Freddie -starting in 2001 because it was financially risky for the US economy). Barney blocked it and called it a "Chicken Little Philosophy" (and the sky did fall!) And who took the THIRD highest pay-off from Fannie Mae AND Freddie Mac? OBAMA And who fought against reform of Fannie and Freddie? OBAMA and the Democrat Congress, especially BARNEY!!!! So, when someone tries to blame Bush... REMEMBER JANUARY 3rd, 2007.... THE DAY THE DEMOCRATS TOOK OVER!"

Quick look at whitehouse race.

The election later this year will, no doubt, be the most important one in our respective lifetimes!.   We will decide what course this  ship called the United States  will set sail.   You have three choices.

1. sail toward a European style socialist state by re-electing the President.
2. sail toward a  constitutional based conservative & capitalistic state.
3. drop anchor and stay status quo.

There you have it.   Whatever you decide, just put some honest thought in to it and  DO SOMETHING!  My best advice is to not get hung up on  one or two causes and make them deal breakers for any particular candidate.  Look at the whole person and pick whichever one you think (not feel) will captain this ship the way you want.
I will be posting mini-blogs about the various candidates. Please take a peek and I encourage your dialogue.       Anchor's AWAY!!!
