Wrong forum. What does this have to do with elections?

Maybe at the mosque ? Why all the secrets this president keeps from us ? If he didnt want people to suspect him why not come out and tell America who he is ? No records of passports, education transcripes, or long term b-certificate . What he hiding ? Why did he spend 2 milion of his own money to hide all this ?

They've probably seen eachother in passing, as prominent city figures often do, but I doubt there has ever been a formal meeting.

Why are you blaming Bush for what Barney Frank was and still is in control of.

When did it all start to fall apart?


As chairman of the House Financial Services Committee, beginning in 2007, Frank "sits at the center of power"


Once control shifted to the Democrats, Frank was able to help guide both the Federal Housing Reform Act (H.R. 1427) and the Mortgage Reform and Anti-Predatory Lending Act (H.R. 3915) to passage in 2007.[53] Frank also said that the Republican-led Gramm–Leach–Bliley Act of 1999, which repealed part of the Glass–Steagall Act of 1933 and removed the wall between commercial and investment banks, which contributed to the financial meltdown.

In an interview quoted in the New York Times, Barney Frank acknowledged supporting the continual increase of FHA loans despite an unprecedented rise in defaults: "I don't think it's a bad thing that the bad loans occurred," he said. "It was an effort to keep prices from falling too fast.


So, Blame Bush all you want. Try to educate yourself on the cause and where the finger really points.

I've seen Farrakhan on the street in the neighborhood, so it is surely possible.

Do you guys realize this thread is over 2 years old??

But if we really must revisit it. . .

Obama Decries Farrakhan Statements | 44 | washingtonpost.com

"I decry racism and anti-Semitism in every form and strongly condemn the anti-Semitic statements made by Minister Farrakhan," Obama said in the statement. "I assume that Trumpet Magazine made its own decision to honor Farrakhan based on his efforts to rehabilitate ex-offenders, but it is not a decision with which I agree."
