UPDATE 10/7/2008 5:00 PM: We just posted a video that casts new light on the financial meltdown. Is it possible that some proponents of the dramatic expansion of sub-prime mortgages knew it would cause a financial meltdown and, indeed, was that their goal? Here’s the link…Video Presentation of Marxist Ideological Subversion in U.S. (video embed–very interesting)

UPDATE 10/7/2008 11:00 AM: The Obama Truth Squads pulled it…but we found another copy!

UPDATE: Here are links to two other videos we have posted that will be most likely pulled by the Obama (Stamp out the) Truth Squads…The “Obama Youth” Video! (embed–scary!) and Obama, ACORN, and the Financial Meltdown (Stanley Kurtz on Fox–video embed)

This is an absolute must see for anyone who wants the truth about the financial meltdown. In a very straightforward way, this video traces the problem to its source (hint, hint…the Community Reinvestment Act plays a pivotal role). And guess who the major players were?

Poor Joe! His 737 is so empty it has an echo…

As Air Joe flew from Wilmington to Charlotte Sunday, the only reporters onboard were off-air reporters from the five television networks and correspondents from NBC and Politico. There was only one camera crew. The back of the plane, reserved for press, sat totally deserted.

The New York Times? Gone. The Washington Post? Not seen since the first days of September. The otherwise ubiquitous Associated Press? Left even before that.

There was a time when the MSM made sure that Obama avoided any unpleasant glare due to the facts. But that was then…and this is now.

Apparently, the MSM is smarting for their non-coverage of the now famously guilty John Edwards and mistress–and have now decided to actually shed some light on Obama.

The NY Times does just that in their article, Obama’s 2003 Stand on Abortion Draws New Criticism in 2008. Here’s a brief excerpt…

Mr. Obama’s critics to accuse him of playing fast and loose with the truth when he says he “would have been completely in, fully in support of the federal bill that everybody supported” if it had been offered at the state level.

“I don’t know whether he is lying or whether he forgot, but with his words, he is condemning himself, “ said Jill Stanek, a nurse in the Chicago area who was a main proponent of the federal measure and writes an anti-abortion blog. “He voted one way and then covered it up, and he has to explain that, not just to me, but to the American people.”

We had a post last week, Obama–Abortion Radical?, that presented a video embed and some powerful information from Jill Stanek’s website that clarifies this entire issue beyond that point from which Obama’s obfuscation and nuance can rescue him.

Discussion of Obama’s work as a law prof at Chicago is making the rounds lately and the conclusion is much the same as it was at the Harvard Law Review…he assiduously avoids taking a stand in print and/or leaving a paper trail.

Teaching Law, Testing Ideas, Obama Stood Apart
NY Times
By JODI KANTOR
Published: July 30, 2008

The young law professor stood apart in too many ways to count. At a school where economic analysis was all the rage, he taught rights, race and gender. Other faculty members dreamed of tenured positions; he turned them down. While most colleagues published by the pound, he never completed a single work of legal scholarship.
