GM, Ford, and Chrysler are important to a strong America, as are all other manufacturing. Over the last approximately forty years, organized labor, i.e. the AFL-CIO, the United Auto Workers, and other Unions have demanded unwarranted hourly pay and benefits. Many in manufacturing businesses throughout America have become less competitive, forced into bankruptcy, and/or required to relocate to other countries, to compete in a global market. Average compensation of $141,000 plus, is excessive in a competitive market.
Democrat leaders on Capitol Hill dispatched the Big 3 automakers’ CEOs. Members examined the CEOs on their corporate losses. These CEOs were grilled on their requests and/or demands for a bailout. Where was UAW President Ron Gettelfinger? Where was AFL-CIO President John Sweeney? Why were other Union leaders not subpoenaed? Why are these Union leaders not being probed? Are Unions partly responsible for our declining manufacturing? Should our legislators on Capitol Hill be demanding organized labor to slash wages and benefits; to protect our US economy? Will Capitol Hill legislators demand Union leaders to reduce employees’ pay and benefits? Are Democrats on Capitol Hill protecting Unions because so many Union dues are campaign dollars, who specifically, support the majority Democrat Party and their candidates?
Legislators are now heading in an abusive direction, adding support to Unions, which will further damage our economy. Very soon, you will see the Democrat majority pass legislation which will allow labor leaders to ‘bully’ other businesses’ fellow employees into signing a Union card which will force business owners to accept labor Unions ‘without’ secret ballot elections. America’s manufacturing will die further, or Presidential Executive Orders, and/or other legislation, will force tariffs upon imports that will increase our goods at the markets; increasing further inflation. UAW leaders must decrease employees’ pay and benefits to protect Americas’ automobile manufacturing.

Bailing Out This Capitol Hill & UAW Plan Is Socialistic Insanity.
Dr. Mark J. Perry, Professor of Economics and Finance in the School of Management at the Flint campus of the University of Michigan http://mjperry.blogspot.com/2007/07/uaw-pricing-themselves-out-of-market.html, says United Auto Worker employees earn, hourly and annually, including benefits: Ford: $70.51 ($141,020 per year), GM: $73.26 ($146,520 per year), Chrysler: $75.86 ($151,720 per year), Toyota, Honda, Nissan (in U.S.): $48.00 ($96,000 per year).
Your may note from this report that UAW employees earn more than University Professors who are averaging salaries’ nationally at $92,973 ($73,207 + 27% benefits).
Dr. Mark J. Perry holds two graduate degrees in economics (M.A. and Ph.D.) from George Mason University in Washington, D.C. In addition, he holds an MBA degree in finance from the Curtis L. Carlson School of Management at the University of Minnesota. Since 1997, Professor Perry has been a member of the Board of Scholars for the Mackinac Center for Public Policy, a nonpartisan research and public policy institute in Michigan.
Many elected legislators on Capitol Hill, and UAW President Ron Gettelfinger, are asking US taxpayers to bail out our three failing US auto manufacturing business, without recourse.
All active UAW member/emoloyees should rollover their entire retirement programs to provide necessary funding for the survival of GM, Ford, and Chrysler. Capitol Hill legislators who supports this giveaway, should rollover their own retirement programs. Their actions will assure America as to the astuteness of our leaders, and prove to the taxpayers the wisdom, or the socialistic insanity, in protecting these exorbitant employees salaries and their benefits.
In lieu, all legislators on Capitol Hill should vote “NO”. Capitol Hill legislators and UAW management should demand a major decrease in hourly wages and benefits, rather than having the taxpayers bail out a private corporation whose employee wages and benefits compensation is in excess of $100,000 annually.

Is It Stimulas Or Is It Socialism?
Some short years ago, almost all showed more responsibility in life. Individuals purchased homeowners and/or home renters insurance to protect against unexpected losses. Private business owners, local governments, and state governments purchased insurance to protect against their unanticipated losses. What has happened?
Today, it seems as if in event of any personal, business, local government, and/or state government unforeseen losses, everyone calls upon the Federal Government to bail them out.
It first became so overtly evident with the bailout using taxpayers’ dollars of private industry, AIG. After this government (taxpayers money) bailout, the AIG business officers took a corporate vacation junket. Then these same corporate officers needed more of (y)our taxpayer’s monies, so they again called on Capitol Hill legislators and the US Treasury. Again, the government provided AIG for many additional ten of millions of dollars. Now again, the AIG corporate officers took another vacation junket. Now, and in addition to these two government bailouts, you need to know that in the first process, AIG asked New York Governor David Paterson to allow AIG insurance reserves to use as their own assets. What I am saying is insurance reserves include (y)our cash values and/or extended life insurance coverages in your life insurance policies. What you thought in your cash value life insurance policy was your own assets, you may be wrong. Governor Patterson allowed AIG to assume insurance reserves as AIG assets. Do these assets now belong to AIG? That is still not the end. What started up with the US Treasury with an $85 million loan has now increased to $150 million of taxpayers’ debt, through the US Treasury, with the purchase of additional preferred stock. Where are the investigations on Capitol Hill?
Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, and the US Treasury called for a $750 million bailout. Capitol Hill legislators voted No on the first round. After negotiations, the Capitol Hill approved the bailout. No legislation was included to provide for any US Senate and/or US Congressional hearings, investigation, and/or prosecutions of ethical and/or illegal activities. A short time ago, many on Capitol Hill were so aggressive in investigating and prosecuting the Enron Corporation scandal officials. Why not now? Is it because so many on Capitol Hill themselves, are tied up in the Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac scandal of scamming taxpayers’ fund? Follow the money. See where the Fannie and Freddie corporate and executive officers monies ended; right on Capitol Hill. Now many others banks have opened their hands for some of these same Federal Stimulus funds of taxpayers’ money.
Where does it end? Now, GM, Ford, and Chrysler are calling on the US Government to bail them out. Is there going to be anyone to ask AFL-CIO President John Sweeney and his Labor Union members to take a look and see if the demands by Labor Unions, because of their demanding increases in salaries, hourly pay wages, and benefits have caused this financial failure? Auto manufacturing personnel are now among the highest paid employees in US industry. Are AFL-CIO members willing to take a pay cut to save this American industry? Is President John Sweeney willing to compromise with the American taxpayers? If Organized Labor is not willing to compromise in decreased wages and benefits, American taxpayers should tell their elected officials to vote No on saving GM, Ford, and Chrysler. These manufacturing jobs should be saved, but not at all taxpayers’ expense.
What is next? When will it end? Is this just more examples of our growing Socialism in America? A stable growing economy in a free society takes individual, corporate, and government responsibility. When the younger folks, and especially when the college students graduate and go out to make a living for themselves, each will sadly learn as Thomas Jefferson said, “A government big enough to give you everything you want, is big enough to take everything you have”.

Obama’s Representations, Misrepresentations, and/or Anti-American Radical Issues
Every day on TV and in the print media, reports are provided of Barack Obama embellishing and/or lying on his record, or practicing and/or believing in a radical left-wing system of government. May I provide one of Obama’s absolute outright misrepresentation in which I personally witnessed? Then, I will address a few other issues about Obama in which his ideals frighten me concerning an intrusion of our freedoms as we now routinely practice.
On September 20, 2007, Obama had a planned town hall meeting at the Freedom Center, Rock Hill, SC. On September 19, that town hall meeting was cancelled. According to the Rock Hill, SC The Herald, “Obama originally planned to hold a town hall meeting at the Freedom Center Sept. 20, but canceled his visit the night before. Obama later apologized for missing the trip, saying he needed to be in Washington for votes on Iraq.”
On October 6, 2007, the Rock Hill, SC, The Herald reported that Barack Obama had rescheduled the September 20 town hall meeting. The new visit to Rock Hill, SC was to be an 8:00 PM rally at Northwestern High School.
On October 7, 2007, the Rock Hill, SC The Herald reported in reference to Obama’s remarks about the war in Iraq, ‘"We don't need somebody to play the game better, we need somebody to put an end to the game playing," he said.’ Obama went on to say, "I apologize for having to reschedule, but I've got a day job," he joked at the rally. "I can't be running for president all the time. Sometimes I've got to vote."
On September 20, 2007 The State, http://thestatecom.typepad.com/ygatoday/presidential_politics/index.html
Columbia SC said, “Sen. Barack Obama has postponed a town hall-style meeting scheduled for today in Rock Hill because of business in the U.S. Senate. The Democratic presidential candidate’s campaign says Obama needs to stay in Washington to cast votes on bills about the war in Iraq. A new date for the town hall meeting has not been set.”
The issue at hand on September 20 was the US Senate voting on the MoveOn.com advertisement critical remarks about Gen. Petraeus and the surge, which is now proven, did work. I watched C-Span-2 live and watched Obama leave the floor some I5 minutes before the vote. Obama did not vote on the issue in the US Senate as to why he cancelled the trip to Rock Hill, SC. The question is why did he lie to the people of Rock Hill concerning his vote on the September 20 vote; only not to vote on the issue, and failing to admit it.
MSNBC http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2007/09.aspx reported, ‘Obama's presidential campaign gives First Read this statement from Obama about not voting today on the Senate measure condemning the MoveOn.org print ad criticizing Gen. David Petraeus. "The focus of the United States Senate should be on ending this war, not on criticizing newspaper advertisements," Obama says. "This amendment was a stunt designed only to score cheap political points while what we should be doing is focusing on the deadly serious challenge we face in Iraq. It's precisely this kind of political game-playing that makes most Americans cynical about Washington's ability to solve America's problems. By not casting a vote, I registered my protest against this empty politics. I registered my views on the ad itself the day it appeared.”
The big question is again, why did Obama lie when it would have been so simple, just to tell the truth?
There are so many reports of Obama’s lies. One on the Internet is 50 Lies and Counting http://www.truthinourtime.com/2008/04/barack-hussein-obama-50-lies-and.html . Many have been verified. Some, of course, can not be proven and/or unproven. Click on the “link” and read all.
Another issue is of concern of Obama’s associates as I summarize a small amount of illegal activity from The Conservative Voice http://www.theconservativevoice.com/article/34211.html. One of Obama’s first meetings prior to entering partisan politics was in the home of William “Bill’ Ayers. Ayers has acknowledged illegal activities including bombing of ITT headquarters in New York and Rome, Italy, Bombing of the Department of Health, Education and Welfare offices in San Francisco, Bombing of The Office of the California Attorney General, Bombing of Gulf Oil's Pittsburgh headquarters, Bombing of Anaconda Corporation (part of the Rockefeller Corporation), Bombing of the State Department, of Banco de Ponce (a Puerto Rican bank) in New York, of Banco de Ponce (a Puerto Rican bank) in New York, Bombing of the Kennecott Corporation. In addition, Brinks robbery in which several members of the Weather Underground stole over $1 million from a Brinks armored car near Nyack, New York. The robbers murdered 2 police officers and 1 Brinks guard. Several others were wounded.
Recently in a September 11, 2001 report, “I don't regret setting bombs. I feel we didn't do enough.” Ayers is quoted in a New York Times article.
Why should anyone consider supporting any candidate, like Obama who ever buddies around with such a wicked criminal, like Bill Ayers, after the criminal activity was known?
From World Net Daily http://www.worldnetdaily.com/index.php?fa=PAGE.view&pageId=76170, “Guess who recommended Obama to enter Harvard” tells as to the late socialist agitator Saul "The Red" Alinksy wrote a letter of recommendation for Obama when he applied to Harvard Law School. Obama approached Northwestern University professor John L. McKnight – a loyal student of Alinsky's radical tactics – to pen the Harvard letter in the late 1980s. McKnight serves on the boards of radically anti-American groups in Chicago, including one accused of thuggery.
Obama in his 2006 memoir alludes to McKnight – whom he describes as an "older man who had been active in the civil rights efforts in Chicago in the sixties" – but stops short of identifying him by name. He referred to him only as "my friend."
And another, according to the LA Times, Fidel Castro endorses Obama. Does that scare you?
http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/washington/2008/05/obamacastro.html, An 'endorsement' no candidate wants: Fidel favors Barack, Just what the presidential candidates have been waiting for: Cuba's Fidel Castro is weighing in on the campaign. The 81-year-old leader of the Cuban revolution may have given up his position as the country's president, but he writes regularly for the Communist Party newspaper, Granma -- and in a column in Monday's edition ...he calls Barack Obama "the most advanced candidate" in the race.
Everyone should view and study Michelle Obama’s Thesis at Princeton http://www.americanconservativedaily.com/2008/08/michelle-lavaughn-robinson-obama/ as how she allegedly illustrates her racism and her hating America. Barack Obama has refused to allow any of his personal educational records while at the University of Columbia in New York. Why? What has Obama got to hide? Other candidates’ records are open for review. Why not Obama?
According to the World Net Daily of August 29, 2008, http://www.worldnetdaily.com/index.php?fa=PAGE.view&pageId=73719 , Islamic leaders tied by federal investigators to the radical Muslim Brotherhood in America – including one under active investigation for alleged terror-financing – have recently donated to Sen. Barack Obama's campaign for president, according to Federal Election Commission records reviewed by WND.
From CBN http://www.cbn.com/cbnnews/348569.aspx, Any Obama suggesting a pregnancy is a penalty. ... saying “he didn't want his daughters prematurely forced to be penalized with a baby”. Barack Obama Date – April 7, 2008, “I’ve got two daughters — 9 years old and 6 years old. I am going to teach them first of all about values and morals, but if they make a mistake, I don’t want them punished with a baby”. - Barack Obama.
As for me Mr. Obama, in the event of a pregnancy, a baby is life; really real breathing life. A baby is a blessing from God, not a penalty.
From Reuters: http://blogs.reuters.com/trail08/2008/08/16/obama-says-pointed-abortion-query-above-his-pay-grade/. Asked at what point a baby gets “human rights,” Obama, who strongly supports abortion rights, said: “… whether you’re looking at it from a theological perspective or a scientific perspective, answering that question with specificity … is above my pay grade.”
From the Free Republic of February 29, 2008 “Obama Pledges Cuts in Missile Defense, Space, and Nuclear Weapons Programs”. For me, America must protect our American flag, our US Constitution, and our freedoms from within, by stopping any and all military missiles, and any other weaponry from any enemy nation and/or terrorist groups. Obama says, “I will cut investments in unproven missile defense systems. I will not weaponize space. I will slow our development of future combat systems”.
From Human Events: Never before in the history of our nation have we faced such a grave crisis: one of the most radical political figures ever to be nominated by a major party is just minutes away from becoming President of the United States.
That man is Barack Obama.
He promises to change America forever. If elected, he will do just that - but in ways you may not like.
Remember Obama is the most liberal member of the United States Senate.
He received a 100 percent Liberal Rating from the National Journal, making him the most left-wing Senator in Washington - more liberal than even Democratic senators like Ted Kennedy.
If you look at Obama's record, you will understand just how dangerous this man is.
He even has terrorist friends he won't denounce. One such man is William Ayers, a leader in the radical terrorist group the Weatherman Underground. The group bombed several government buildings, including the Pentagon, killing civilians and police officers.
In 2001, Ayers said he had no regrets for his actions and wished he could have done more.
The ties between Obama and Ayers are tight. Both served on two non profit boards and they worked closely together. Ayers even hosted a political event at his home for Obama.
Obama has acknowledged he is a friend of Ayers and defends his association by saying he, Obama, was only 8 years old at the time of the Pentagon bombing.
However, Obama has no explanation as to why he is still a friend of Ayers.
Obama has even been endorsed by radicals such as Nation of Islam Leader Louis Farrakhan.
No one can deny hearing about Obama's relationship with the America-hating Rev. Jeremiah Wright.
There should be little doubt that William Ayers and Louis Farrakhan and the Rev. Jeremiah Wright are rooting for Obama - because he is one of them.
In keeping with such friends, Obama has promised to meet with radical leaders like Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad without "preconditions" even though Ahmadinejad has promised to "wipe Israel off the map" and "destroy" America.
Even radical Hamas terrorists have praised him. "We like Mr. Obama and we hope he will win the election," Ahmed Yousef, senior Hamas leader was quoted by ABC radio as saying.
Below are a few lines from Obama's books; In his words!
From Dreams of My Father: 'I ceased to advertise my mother's race at the age of 12 or 13, when I began to suspect that by doing so I was ingratiating myself to whites.'
From Dreams of My Father: 'I found a solace in nursing a pervasive sense of grievance and animosity against my mother's race.'
From Dreams of My Father: 'There was something about him that made me wary, a little too sure of himself, maybe. And white.'
From Dreams of My Father: 'It remained necessary to prove which side you were on, to show your loyalty to the black masses, to strike out and name names.'
From Dreams of My Father: 'I never emulate white men and brown men whose fates didn't speak to my own. It was into my father's image, the black man, son of Africa , that I'd packed all the a tributes I sought in myself , the attributes of Martin and Malcolm, DuBois and Mandela.'
And FINALLY the Most Damming one of ALL of them!!!
From Audacity of Hope: 'I will stand with the Muslims should the political winds shift in an ugly direction.'
In closing, this enclosed info is a small amount of left wing radical issues on and about Barack Obama’s life and/or beliefs. I find is difficult to understand how any true blooded loving American can support Obama, based on his history with the issues. How can any American vote for any candidate who refused to recite our “Pledge of Allegiance” and/or cross his heart with our American Flag is being presented. I find it difficult to understand how anyone who believes and/or practices Judeo-Christian values who supports the radical Muslim community who calls for the killing of all Jews and Americans, whom they refer to as “infidels’; then turn around and support candidates with those values.
In this issue, I have failed to provide information supporting you to vote for the John McCain / Sarah Palin team, I certainly hope you will see more than adequate reasons to reject any vote for the Barack Obama / Joe Biden team.
While Obama criticizes John McCain for his associations with business professionals and lobbyists, you and I can certainly criticize Barack Obama for his associations with so many in his personal, professional, and political circles with questionable moral, ethical, and/or criminal failures. While I have provided a few of so many questionable issues, there seems to be many true, endless conclusions with Obama’s corrupt associations.
My issue is asking you to remember who have served in the US Military to protect our American Flag, our US Constitution, and all of our freedoms from within. The more important issue is to remember our military who are currently serving in a war fighting international terrorism in Iraq and Afghanistan, and over 600,000 Americans whom have given their lives in battle to protect the Democratic Republic system of government of which we are blessed to be governed under. The ultimate blessing is in God Bless America and what America stands for. America was founded upon Judeo-Christian values. We must work for it, and support it, to keep it; lest we lose it.

From Reuters: http://blogs.reuters.com/trail08/2008/08/16/obama-says-pointed-abortion-query-above-his-pay-grade/. Asked at what point a baby gets “human rights,” Obama, who strongly supports abortion rights, said: “… whether you’re looking at it from a theological perspective or a scientific perspective, answering that question with specificity … is above my pay grade.”
From the Free Republic of February 29, 2008 “Obama Pledges Cuts in Missile Defense, Space, and Nuclear Weapons Programs”. For me, America must protect our American flag, our US Constitution, and our freedoms from within, by stopping any and all military missiles, and any other weaponry from any enemy nation and/or terrorist groups. Obama says, “I will cut investments in unproven missile defense systems. I will not weaponize space. I will slow our development of future combat systems”.
From Human Events: Never before in the history of our nation have we faced such a grave crisis: one of the most radical political figures ever to be nominated by a major party is just minutes away from becoming President of the United States.
That man is Barack Obama.
He promises to change America forever. If elected, he will do just that - but in ways you may not like.
Remember Obama is the most liberal member of the United States Senate.
He received a 100 percent Liberal Rating from the National Journal, making him the most left-wing Senator in Washington - more liberal than even Democratic senators like Ted Kennedy.
If you look at Obama's record, you will understand just how dangerous this man is.
He even has terrorist friends he won't denounce. One such man is William Ayers, a leader in the radical terrorist group the Weatherman Underground. The group bombed several government buildings, including the Pentagon, killing civilians and police officers.
In 2001, Ayers said he had no regrets for his actions and wished he could have done more.
The ties between Obama and Ayers are tight. Both served on two non profit boards and they worked closely together. Ayers even hosted a political event at his home for Obama.
Obama has acknowledged he is a friend of Ayers and defends his association by saying he, Obama, was only 8 years old at the time of the Pentagon bombing.
However, Obama has no explanation as to why he is still a friend of Ayers.
Obama has even been endorsed by radicals such as Nation of Islam Leader Louis Farrakhan.
No one can deny hearing about Obama's relationship with the America-hating Rev. Jeremiah Wright.
There should be little doubt that William Ayers and Louis Farrakhan and the Rev. Jeremiah Wright are rooting for Obama - because he is one of them.
In keeping with such friends, Obama has promised to meet with radical leaders like Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad without "preconditions" even though Ahmadinejad has promised to "wipe Israel off the map" and "destroy" America.
Even radical Hamas terrorists have praised him. "We like Mr. Obama and we hope he will win the election," Ahmed Yousef, senior Hamas leader was quoted by ABC radio as saying.
Below are a few lines from Obama's books; In his words!
From Dreams of My Father: 'I ceased to advertise my mother's race at the age of 12 or 13, when I began to suspect that by doing so I was ingratiating myself to whites.'
From Dreams of My Father: 'I found a solace in nursing a pervasive sense of grievance and animosity against my mother's race.'
From Dreams of My Father: 'There was something about him that made me wary, a little too sure of himself, maybe. And white.'
From Dreams of My Father: 'It remained necessary to prove which side you were on, to show your loyalty to the black masses, to strike out and name names.'
From Dreams of My Father: 'I never emulate white men and brown men whose fates didn't speak to my own. It was into my father's image, the black man, son of Africa , that I'd packed all the a tributes I sought in myself , the attributes of Martin and Malcolm, DuBois and Mandela.'
And FINALLY the Most Damming one of ALL of them!!!
From Audacity of Hope: 'I will stand with the Muslims should the political winds shift in an ugly direction.'
In closing, this enclosed info is a small amount of left wing radical issues on and about Barack Obama’s life and/or beliefs. I find is difficult to understand how any true blooded loving American can support Obama, based on his history with the issues. How can any American vote for any candidate who refused to recite our “Pledge of Allegiance” and/or cross his heart with our American Flag is being presented. I find it difficult to understand how anyone who believes and/or practices Judeo-Christian values who supports the radical Muslim community who calls for the killing of all Jews and Americans, whom they refer to as “infidels’; then turn around and support candidates with those values.
In this issue, I have failed to provide information supporting you to vote for the John McCain / Sarah Palin team, I certainly hope you will see more than adequate reasons to reject any vote for the Barack Obama / Joe Biden team.
While Obama criticizes John McCain for his associations with business professionals and lobbyists, you and I can certainly criticize Barack Obama for his associations with so many in his personal, professional, and political circles with questionable moral, ethical, and/or criminal failures. While I have provided a few of so many questionable issues, there seems to be many true, endless conclusions with Obama’s corrupt associations.
My issue is asking you to remember who have served in the US Military to protect our American Flag, our US Constitution, and all of our freedoms from within. The more important issue is to remember our military who are currently serving in a war fighting international terrorism in Iraq and Afghanistan, and over 600,000 Americans whom have given their lives in battle to protect the Democratic Republic system of government of which we are blessed to be governed under. The ultimate blessing is in God Bless America and what America stands for. America was founded upon Judeo-Christian values. We must work for it, and support it, to keep it; lest we lose it.
