Al Gore said in San Jose Saturday that the climate crisis deserves the same type of attention and money from Washington that the financial meltdown is getting.
"Instead of a focus only on a bailout, we need to bail in renewable energy," Gore said during a 50-minute speech at the Civic Auditorium. Remember to wear your hip waders when bailing. And bring a shovel.

When will the MSM start holding him accountable - whre other peopel can see it?
THAT is the major problem, our media has become an advocate and is MAL-informing tha nation so as to induce a result they, the lefty liberals, want in the election, regardless of the truth.
These press people should be executed en masse if they bring about this huge betrayal of our democracy.

Noticed that flip-flop, did you? I about fell out of my chair when he said it. It's been one of the key issues for the authoritarian liberal Left. When they couldn't say 'no' outright, they'd always weasel about not wanting it until it was 'proven' -- and then always vote no on further research and development.
Sure wish McCain would have clobbered Obama on the spot when he said it.

Obama doesn't mean it. Standard tactic of the left. Say anything to get in power.

"I'm mad as hell and I won't take it anymore"
Put these sleezeballs in jail. It was bad enough when Enron wiped out the savings of millions of employees, these people are taking down an economic system.

Though she had no training or experience in finance, Gorelick was appointed the Vice Chairman of Fannie Mae and served in the role from 1997 to 2003. During that six-year period, she earnedwas paid over $26 million.
Fixed it for 'em. There's a huge difference between being paid and having earned.

Gorelick and Clinton/Gore Campaign cash from foreign sources In case anyone was in doubt, Janet Reno herself affirmed the policy several months later in a July 19, 1995, memo that we have unearthed. In it, the then-Attorney General instructs all U.S. Attorneys about avoiding "the appearance" of overlap between intelligence-related activities and law-enforcement operations. Recall, too, that during the time of Ms. Gorelick's 1995 memo, the issue causing the most tension between the Reno-Gorelick Justice Department and Director Freeh's FBI was not counterterrorism but widely reported allegations of contributions to the Clinton-Gore campaign from foreign sources, involving the likes of John Huang and Charlie Trie. Mr. Trie later told investigators that between 1994 and 1996 he raised some $1.2 million, much of it from foreign sources, whose identities were hidden by straw donors. Ms. Gorelick resigned as deputy attorney general in 1997 to become vice chairman of Fannie Mae.
And I thought this comment from that site was of interest: Ms. Gorelick has written numerous scholarly articles and is the co-author of a leading treatise on the maintenance of corporate documents, Destruction of Evidence (Wiley 1983)"
Sounds like Duke got sound advice when they hired her. She's a specialist in what to destroy and how to get away with it. Comes from working for the Clintons I guess.

wow. That's one for a bookmark. One silver lining is that we are starting to see that a very small group of traitors have really managed to do serious damage in their attempts to bring down our government. I can see why they are pulling out all the stops on this election. While they are very powerful, they are very small in numbers and support. Since the 60's they have relied on the media to cover for them and to advance only their agenda. Their heyday is over if they don't win this election.
Hard to believe that such a small group of traitors can do so much damage to a society.

A pity they'll have to die unsatisfied, then. Even if Candidate Obama wins, he won't be able to put in place the pieces they want; we aren't Europeans to allow our rulers to do wholly as they please.

After clicking on Berndine/Bernadette Dohrn, Bill Ayre's wife and finding her Wikipedia entry that led to Kathy Boudine who did time for taking part in a bank robbery that resulted in the killing of three people and then that led to SDS and Tom Hayden who was married to Jane Fonda and was a Congressman from California and at that point my head began to spin and my eyes rolled around in my head and I started to tilt.
It seems that BO had more than a "I might have met Bill Ayres one time. He was just a guy in the neighborhood." It seems that Ayes was fairly involved in BOs community organizing.
Why is it that the trangressions of this group of radicals seems to be relatively easily forgiven for some serious criminal activity. Many of these people have fairly good jobs in our universities and in other parts of our society. I read where a guy that steals a car, or steals some copper wire, or runs a moonshine still, or smokes some pot gets more in the way of time than this group of American grown terrorists.

Beautiful.
I would like to mention that Mr. Raines did lower his handicap to the single digits while he was out of work. C'mon, that's gotta count for something, no?

Wolf Dog,
Please watch the video. It shows Bush tried to fix the problem early on. Senator Dodd was a major culprit and Barak Obama esq. was a major litigant in making the problem worse.

Maybe I'm cynical but it seems more and more like the risky, no money down, full price house financing loans was a largely Democratic plan to buy low income votes (Dodd, Franks, Obama, and others) and to get kickbacks campaign fund donations from Fannie and Freddie.

JQC, I do believe you are right. That and allowing certain Congresscritters and CEOs to make a killin'.

The liberties of our country, the freedom of our civil Constitution, are worth defending at all hazards; and it is our duty to defend them against all attacks. We have received them as a fair inheritance from our worthy ancestors: they purchased them for us with toil and danger and expense of treasure and blood, and transmitted them to us with care and diligence. It will bring an everlasting mark of infamy on the present generation, enlightened as it is, if we should suffer them to be wrested from us by violence without a struggle, or to be cheated out of them by the artifices of false and designing men.
A multi-volume chronology and reference guide set detailing three years of the Mexican Drug War between 2010 and 2012.
Rantburg.com and borderlandbeat.com correspondent and author Chris Covert presents his first non-fiction work detailing
the drug and gang related violence in Mexico.
Chris gives us Mexican press dispatches of drug and gang war violence
over three years, presented in a multi volume set intended to chronicle the death, violence and mayhem which has
dominated Mexico for six years.
Rantburg was assembled from recycled algorithms in the United States of America. No
trees were destroyed in the production of this weblog. We did hurt some, though. Sorry.
