It's Getting Interesting... Too Interesting.

Obama not a natural citizen?

Well if that is case, then I would have to say that a "congratulations!" is in order for John McCain and his victory. He can stop campaigning because this means that he's the only viable contender left: He's won!

- If this is legitimate and it actually goes to the Supreme Court: McCain wins. 7 of the 9 Justices were appointed by Republican Presidents, 5 of them almost always vote conservative. Well, 4 of them always do, 1 of them almost always does. So I would say it's in the bag for McCain.

- The McCain Campaign must truly be missing out on a gem here. The McCain campaign Along with the RNC must be a little slow in order to not make this an issue... OR perhaps they have looked into it and it is a conspiracy theory rather than anything true.

Bottom line, if this were true, McCain would be an idiot to not pursue this NOW. Start running major t.v. ads, start a probe, start DOING SOMETHING.

- From what I know about court cases, you actually have to break a law before you can be sued. This is called "having standing": A.K.A. Obama would have to win the election, as you cannot be found guilty of something if you haven't yet violated a law. There could be an unprecedented exception here considering the magnitude of the issue at hand

Obama & Socialism

Socialism Test -1: any of various economic and political theories advocating collective or governmental ownership and administration of the means of production and distribution of goods.

Collective or governmental ownership under Obama - NOPE.
Administration of the means of production and distribution of goods - NOPE.

Socialism Test -2 a: a system of society or group living in which there is no private property b: a system or condition of society in which the means of production are owned and controlled by the state

No Private Property under Obama - NOPE.
Means of production are owned and controlled by the state - NOPE.

- Although I've already blogged on this issue:

What we have already in this nation is a tax system that takes money from people and redistributes it to programs that are made to (or at least supposed to) help the country and it's citizenry. There are pluses and minuses to our system (read that blog post linked above).

Economic Crisis

As I've said before: I firmly believe that the problem was Democrats pushing for loans to be given out to people who could not pay them back AND AND AND vast deregulation pushed by Republicans, allowing these big companies to run wild and unchecked.

Both sides are to blame.

I'm examining every eyebrow-raising claim that I'm hearing about each side. So far not much of it sticks.
