The next round of debates will be tomorrow night and it seems to me that only one candidate is willing to discuss the issues facing us today, but I am interested to see what the average voter would like to hear the Presidential candidates discuss.   Personally, I will be listening for the following:

 

1.       Job Loss in the US – currently taxpayers have lost approximately 750,000 jobs in the last nine months

2.       The Bailouts or Rescue plans – currently taxpayers have given up about 1 trillion dollars to large corporations

3.       The Iraq/Afghanistan Wars – currently taxpayers are sharing the burden of 10 billion dollars a month to fund both wars and we are borrowing the money from China for this bill

4.       Healthcare – currently, most citizens cannot afford the rising costs of healthcare and it could be made affordable had our leaders used taxpayer money wisely

5.       Energy  - this is becoming a big problem as many taxpayers are facing rising costs this winter

Now, I can list many more, but right now this is the main focus for me, and I wonder what other voters think, give me your list and let us pay attention to see if either candidate address our concerns.

In a well-hidden story over the weekend probably due to the bailouts of several corporations, seven Palin aides have now agreed to testify in the abuse of Power scandal, according to Matt Apuzzo, Associated Press Writer on Sunday.  In his article, Mr. Apuzzo stated, “Lawmakers subpoenaed seven state employees to testify in the inquiry but they challenged those subpoenas. After a judge rejected that challenge last week, the employees decided to testify, Alaska Attorney General Talis Colberg said”, wow it seems as though we are going to finally get to this bottom of this scandal.  To view the entire story, please visit http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20081006/ap_on_el_pr/palin_

I ask you, if she were to become VP, would she also abuse the powers allowed by the US Constitution as she stated during her debate with Sen. Joe Biden of Delaware, let me know what you think.

I, one of millions of taxpayers, would like to thank you Congressional Leaders for the wonderful treatment bestowed upon me for the bailouts, or rescue of the largest corporations in America, you were too kind in your generosity of our money, but next time before you decide to get in bed, can you take us to dinner first?  First, it was the $29 billion bailout of Bear Stearns, which transpired on March 14, 2008, however, by March 20, 2008 the Securities and Exchange Commission Chairman Christopher Cox said the collapse of Bear Stearns was due to a lack of confidence, not a lack of capital, for this I want to thank you for wasting more of our money.  Consequently, the Bear Stearns bailout that has been seen as an extreme-case scenario continues to raise significant questions about Fed intervention, and on May 29, 2008 Bear Stearns shareholders approved the sale to JPMorgan Chase at the $10-per-share price.

Now, after taking billions of dollars to help a company like Bear Stearns in May you all decided to assume control of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, for another $25 billion dollars because the US Secretary of Treasurer ascertained "that conservatorship was the only form in which I would commit taxpayer money to the GSEs".  This bailout was also approved by Federal Reserve Bank Chairman Ben Bernanke but who did not state that it would cost us taxpayers up to $200 billion.  Now, if anyone is keeping track that is two bailouts in a matter of months worth more than $225 billion thus far, but wait, there is more as AIG and Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008 worth $700 billion dollars but could rise to trillions once everything is settled, again, could you take us to dinner first?

Hold the line as many taxpayers are not aware of the secret bailout pending of the auto industry that transpired last month around September 18, 2008 in which GM, Chrysler, and Ford want at least $25 billion in guaranteed loans, when were you going to tell us this tidbit of information.  However, “that plea ignited a firestorm of questions for CEO Rick Wagoner, who insisted that the government incentives he seeks - in the form of a proposed $25 billion loan to GM, Ford and Chrysler that's now before Congress - are not a bailout”, well what would you call it as a taxpayer, maybe its label could be rescue plan, that works better, right.  Let us now tally the bailouts or rescue plans thus far, wow, that would be too much for the average Joe Six Pack who is working just to pay the rent or feed his children or pay for the rising cost of gas to get around.  I personally am sick of bailing out or rescuing some corporations who have for years wasted their money and now want me and other taxpayers to pay for these severance agreements while the employees of these organizations are on the unemployment line or close to it.  I, a taxpayer, am requesting that not one CEO get a dime in severance pay, as it is unfair to take our money to give them another big check.

I am urging all taxpayers, let us put our differences aside and see that we are getting no dinner prior to giving away all that we own to bailout corporations who by the way make more in a few days than most of us make in lifetime.  We the taxpayers are looking at giving up more than one trillion dollars to help stabilize the economy, now I ask each one of you, who is going to help stabilize us when the need arise as it will not be the government as they have no money which is why they are using ours, right.  Tell me what you think about this mess, can you really afford to continue down this economic road to nowhere, as I would like these leaders to take me to dinner first, what about you?

According to the Associated Press moments ago, John McCain is suspending all activities in the state of Michigan as he is continuing to lose ground in a key battle ground state, wow, things go from bad to worse with the GOP campaign as it appears that America is speaking loud and clear.  The article by Jonathan Martin states “McCain will go off TV in Michigan, stop dropping mail there and send most of his staff to more competitive states, including Wisconsin, Ohio and Florida. Wisconsin went for Kerry in 2004, Ohio and Florida for Bush”, well good riddance as it seems this is a plus for Michigan voters who have seen the light.

Now, I am asking the American voting public, do you think this is the first of many others to come or is this an anomaly, you decide and let me know what you think.  The entire story can be found following this below link from a very reputable news source, you know the kind the McCain camp cannot recall (lol).

According to Fox 5 Website John McCain’s reply to why he has been losing in the polls since the financial crisis was “because life is not fair”, well Mr. McCain did you ever stop to think that no one has faith in you to lead this country?  Did you ever stop to think that although you have many supporters in the GOP party, you are not very popular with the American Public as a whole?  Did you ever stop to think that losing in 2000 to the current president makes you even less likely to win this time around?  Did you ever stop to think that the ideology you have is resulting in the poll loss?  Personally, I do not put much stock in poll numbers and know from history what the Bubba vote can do, but I do believe that some of America has opened their eyes and the way you showed the disdain for your opponent during the debate clearly showed what kind of leader you would be.  Now I am fully aware that you have a base that thinks along the same lines as you do, but I am confident that common sense will prevail in the general election as America realizes we need someone who will bring unity to this country and restore America’s values in the global world.  Mr. McCain goes on to say that “"Look, we're doing fine,” as well as “But I'm very happy with where we are", however, I beg to differ even though I do not put much stock in poll numbers it is easy to ascertain that the more the McCain campaign speaks, the more and more America shouts, NO HOW, NO WAY, NO McCain or Palin!

You stated:

The host of PBS'"Washington Week" and senior correspondent on "The NewsHour" said she did not tell the Commission on Presidential Debates about the book.

Now, I ask since you have omitted comments:

Well, if the GOP campaign had of read the newspapers and countless other news sources which include Time magazine who covered the story about the book on August 21, 2008.  It reads:  The Barack Obama and John McCain campaigns have agreed to hold three presidential debates and one vice presidential debate in September and October sponsored by the Commission on Presidential Debates. The campaigns have come to the earliest agreement on presidential debates reached in any general election in recent history. This announcement reflects the presidential campaigns' agreement on dates, locations, and the formats for the fall debates. Campaign-appointed debate negotiators House Democratic Caucus Chairman Rahm Emanuel (D-IL) and Senator Lindsey Graham (R-SC) said they were pleased to have reached an early agreement to provide the American people with the opportunity to see and hear the candidates debate the critical issues facing the country. The two campaigns have accepted sponsorship of the debates by the Commission on Presidential Debates, subject to the debates being conducted under the terms of their agreement.

Y3, I am close behind you. We are at a great site, with people who are educated and do not hide behind their race, their color and their creed. We do not have to deal with ignorance, stupidity, shrews, twits and the dregs of society who seem to troll this blogging site. Some of them are part of the problem plaguing this country. They waste their employers time, blogging their personal BLEEP and have the nerve to collect a paycheck. It is nice to know that these fools are of the same color, spewing their left wing garbage to the like minded left winging morons.  They do not have the gumption, nor the scruples to examine the issues for what they are and blog in an educated fashion.  Now why is that not surprising?

The black KKK  on this Board is alive and well. They wield their version of racism and hide behind the skirts of Fox.  They post inciteful blogs and expect the rest of us to respond in a mild fashion. Your hypocracy is a beacon for the rest of you. Instead of burning crosses, they lob molotov cocktails. Sadly they fall short. They are so blinded with their racism and hate, they cannot see straight. When they cannot debate in a civilised fashion, out come the feigned cries of racism ... oh Puh .. Leez ...shove that song of racism that you sing, so out of tune, up your veritable pieholes. 

Some of you are so pathetic,  you sing out of both sides of your mouth. Some of you may have left the ghetto, but the ghetto has not left you.  When you are cornered, your ghetto upbringing shines thru.

I for one am glad I was invited to join this other group. What a diverse group they are!  Without the distraction of the stupidity that reigns supreme on this Board, I have learned so much !  It is a place where great ideas have been exchanged and views have been challenged in a civilised manner. This is what separates us humans from the primates on this Board. Just becareful. Ensure you knot your tail really, really tight around that branch. You may fall on your head and destroy the few brain cells you posses, even if those brain cells control the stupid side of your character.

 My comments that I cannot post to your blog:

Well, I am a 100% black woman and according to you, I fall in the category of wasting my employer’s time, blogging my personal BLEEP and have the nerve to collect a paycheck.  Well, let me tell you something, it is so sad that you people believe that blacks do not own anything and must use other avenues to do the same things that you do daily, how sad for you.  This world was created by One for all of us and what makes you or any of the others think that blacks do not have a place in it.  It seems to me that this election as brought a lot of hate towards one race to the forefront, now please do not give me that mess that you are not a racist, just look at your own words which blames blacks for your shortcomings.  You go on to state that the black KKK is alive and well on this site, wow, is there such a thing as I was under the impression that this is the kind of group that some whites created because of their personal feelings towards blacks back in the day, but now applies to any minority.  Are you blaming blacks for creating the KKK as well as your reason for leaving this site, how sad to blame others for your problems, if a black had posted this mess you people would be up in arms.  Now, I use those words because they have been used to describe blacks our entire life, but when one of us use them on you people then we are labeled a racist, well you are what you are.  If any of you feel as if I am a racist, well, I did not write the original blog, so just look in the mirror.

Thank you so much Milu for the kind words as you have spoken exactly what was in your heart and because you feel this way about me means nothing, but your words will come back to haunt you for God said, Do unto others as they do unto you. May God be the greatest force in your life.

Over the past several days there have been various bloggers stating that they are leaving Fox 5 Website due to the racism that is spewed, well I have one question, if you are leaving why do you find the need to keep posting blogs that will not accept comments?  Furthermore, why do you feel the need to blame blacks for your misguidance, hell, why blame others when you have the issues, as I am just curious.  One blogger stated “We do not have to deal with ignorance, stupidity, shrews, twits and the dregs of society who seem to troll this blogging site. Some of them are part of the problem plaguing this country. They waste their employers time, blogging their personal BLEEP and have the nerve to collect a paycheck.”

Personally, I feel as though you are blaming others for your problems and because some on this site do not agree with you then you must place blame somewhere, well, have you ever thought about looking in a mirror.  This blogger went on to say “he black KKK on this Board is alive and well. They wield their version of racism and hide behind the skirts of Fox.  They post inciteful blogs and expect the rest of us to respond in a mild fashion”, now I ask again, where the problem lies really as you make statements such as this only shows your true colors.  Now, since you all keep posting after suspending your blogging activities, which appears to be a McCain like tactic, would you say that you are following the GOP curriculum in creating a bunch of nothing.  Good bye, good riddance, and get the hell off the site as you have moved on to what you consider being better than this one, well get the hell out!

 P.S.

 Personally, I think the ones who are screaming of leaving Fox 5 Website is afraid that their candidate has already lost and using this site as their excuse for supporting losers.  I do not think that any one of us could hurt Fox 5 Website by leaving and these people who have threatened, yes, I said threatened, as they are still here, to leave is just searching for attention as they are losers who blame blacks for all their problems in life.

After days of turmoil and child like tantrums regarding this massive taxpayer bail out, John McCain’s camp announced moments ago that he will debate Mr. Obama tonight as if this big surprise.  It was highly irregular for a presidential candidate to suspend his campaign and use the debate as a hostage to get a bill passed in Congress, but when we are speaking of a man who has called himself a “maverick” or an unconventional person, these actions have proved true to form. 

According to the AP, this story says it all and if any person that was undecided should have all facts to decide, this man is not ready to lead.

By NEDRA PICKLER, Associated Press Writer 3 minutes ago

WASHINGTON - Republican John McCain agreed to attend the first presidential debate Friday night even though Congress doesn't have a bailout deal, reversing an earlier decision to delay the forum until Washington had addressed the financial crisis.

A teacher in Jackson, Mississippi asked her 6th grade class how many of them were McCain fans.

Not really knowing what a McCain fan was, but wanting to be liked by the teacher, all the kids raised their hands except for Little Johnny.
 
The teacher asked Little Johnny why he decided to be different... Again.
 
 Little Johnny said, "Because I'm not a McCain fan."
 
The teacher said, "Why aren ' t you a McCain fan?"  Johnny said "Because I ' m a Democrat."
 
 The teacher asked why he's a Democrat.
 
 Little Johnny answered "Well, my Mom's a Democrat and my Dad's a Democrat, so I'm a Democrat."
 
 The teacher asks, "If your Mom was a moron, and your Dad was an idiot, what would that make you?"
 
 With a big smile, Little Johnny replied, "That would make me a McCain fan."
 
 I always liked Little Johnny!

I am appalled that this current administration and the McCain camp would even attempt this latest move of holding the Presidential Debate hostage in order to quickly pass a bailout bill that would put billions of taxpayer dollars into the pockets of those Wall Street companies who have already failed Americans. Yes, I see this as a hostage negotiations when the McCain camp announced moments that he must drop everything and head back to Washington to work on the bailout, well Mr. McCain, I have a question, did you do that same thing for the hurricanes that tore up the South and other areas, no.  Did you do that same thing with these wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, no, why because you were not losing in the polls at that time, correct? 

I cannot believe for the life of me that you Mr. McCain and our current President would insult the American people as you have done last night, as I am trying to figure out who would consider the mess that you two are touting to be gospel, as this current crisis has been going on for weeks now, but you want us to act quickly, why, is it the fact that there are only 40+ days left before you get those cronies of yours richer? I, an American Taxpayer, do not want to bailout these rich folks any longer, you have taken all of our money to bail out Fannie and Freddie, used it on these wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, who by the way, is hoarding 80 billion taxpayer dollars as it is and possibly more, now you want us to bail out others, well, as I asked previously, who will bail us out when we can’t afford the basics?  Personally, I see this latest move by the GOP party as nothing short of a hostage situation in which the American Taxpayers need to start paying attention to as this is going to ruin this country if we allow these politicians to conduct themselves in this manner, please do not think for one moment this has anything to do with the crisis, this is nothing short of John and George strong armed robbery of us, which in my opinion is a crime as well as hostage taking.

Wow, I thought I had seen it all over years when it comes to politics, but to my surprise the best is yet to come as they say, now let us welcome our VP Nominee Mrs. Sarah Palin into the mix.  First, Mrs. Palin comes into the equation by reason of default, as it seems apparent that no one else was qualified to run as GOP VP Nominee, or so the party has led us to believe.  Then, Mrs. Palin prior to accepting the nomination, states “she does not know what a VP does”, wow, and she wants me to vote for her because I am a woman, not today, not tomorrow, not ever as I would like to have access to my VP in theory.  Next, she is accusing the media of being biased but has yet to make herself readily available for interviews as others in her line of work has, as I wonder why, does she not have a script handily available to speak from talking points, or is it that the McCain camp does not have anything to tout but Country First? 

According to an article by Kenneth P Vogel, (http://news.yahoo.com/s/politico/20080923/pl_politico
/13791
) “Palin, whose meetings here were all to be private, has yet to hold a press conference with her traveling press corps, and her campaign has tightly restricted which media outlets have gotten face time with the candidate”.  Now I ask voters is this the fault of the media or the campaign for not allowing us to get to see this woman in her true persona, because as a voter who is tired of the Republicans asking me to switch parties this time around and does not give me any reason to want to go against the grain. If you disallow the media to cover events held by you, then what is it that you expect from the media, as this seems really simple to me, stop allowing script reading and answer questions.

Yes, it is a historic election to have the first woman VP on the ticket, however, it is not an election that can be won because you are a woman at least in my opinion.  Mrs. Palin, if you want anyone to consider you as genuine then open up to the media as the voters cannot learn who you are until you do, plain and simple.  It is not the media that is denying you access, but rather you denying them access to you, so I ask you, if you want me to jump on the gender bandwagon, stop using our gender to promote your own ladder climbing and open up access to the media.

I too conducted my own test to see if I made derogatory comments if it would indeed expose the individuals who decided to pretend to be me and after having to get really disgusting and mean, it worked. It was the only way that I could get some help as I sent request after request to the moderators at Fox to no avail so I took matters into my own hands. Most of the stuff was just gibberish to expose the culprits and the other stuff was lyrics to Young Buck and Westside Connections, groups that some would know and others would have no idea who they are. Did I mean any of the things that I said, no, but it did expose those who were responsible and if Fox allows you all do to what you do to me, then I have a right to do what I need to expose hypocrites.

Say what you want, I could care less what you all post about me as I know who I am and am not afraid of how others feel about me, hell, I have been through this mess my entire life. I do not have any problems, but it is clear that you all do to go through such measures, well, one set of measure cause another set of measures. Tick for tack, you play with me and I will play with you, bottom line. I have told you people back in July, if you do not want others to do these things to you, stop doing them to others. Now, if this means that others on this site will adopt the attitudes that you all have for me so be it. I am not the only one you all have targeted but am the one who will do whatever to expose hypocrisy.

Please know that I do not make threats but promises and those words involved in the chicken blog are in no way a threat or promise but used to depict exactly who this might be doing this to me, as I cannot understand why did you have to resort to such, as if you did not do what you did, neither would I had to resort to such tactics, right. Again, my insistence to the Fox 5 moderators went unanswered, so you all got what you asked for to bring to light that a person would resort to something of this caliber, does that make you all better than me, no.

No one man sin is greater than the other, that is all I am trying to get you all to see, but the difference between you and I is that I did not have to resort to pretending to be someone that I was not, unlike whomever created the experiment, as I did everything as me, the original Lilbits!

Wow, I have made you remove comments to this blog, which is a win for me.  I am the original LilBits and you cannot obtain this greatness as GOD created only one and anyone can see that you are trying desperately to be me, well it will not work.  If Fox 5 wants to allow you to copy my bio, use my screen name, oh well, I AM NOT GOING TO LET YOU OR ANYONE ELSE run me away from this site.  You are nothing short of a racist with your intentions of the stereotype posts and I will not tolerate it.  If you post derogatory statements you better ensure that you will not accept comments as I do not understand your issues with me, but it is clear that you need to get a life.  Yes, I am a 100% Black woman, however, I do not appear as the photos you are using, but do seem them as depicting how you view blacks, as it is okay. 

God has my back and no weapon formed shall prosper as I hope you enjoy your little fun but please know that what GOD has sat upon HIGH, the devil cannot bring down low.

Do as you must and know that I will be a throne in your side for as long as GOD keeps you alive.  You cannot be ME, as GOD created only one and you are nothing but a racist bastard with no life and must hide behind a computer screen to be mean, but that is okay, make me laugh as you are nothing short of a bad joke

Sincerely,

The Original LilBits
