Harry Reid Implies Radio Host Is Racist For Tying Fannie Mae watch!

breitbart.tv — Franklin Raines who you're talking about worked for Fannie Mae was there for a while. The only connection that people could bring up about Raines and Barack Obama is that they both are African-American other than that there is nothing.

  • doctorf1956, on 10/09/2008, -1/+25Oh Harry its going to get WORSE for you and Obama. McCain has just named names! McCain, "The same people taking credit for this bailout are the same Democrats responsible for the collapse and are co-conspirators in the Fannie and Freddie scandal, there names are Barney Frank, Chris Dodd." YES! YES! This is what needs to be done. Obama the socialist who "had no problem" with subprimes is up to his elbows along with the Democrats and their failed policies of that past. Barney Frank, Maxine Waters, Chris Dodd all stalled investigation into Fannie and Freddie's subprime house of cards. Its not a matter of race Harry. The issue transcends race. If you are so confident in your 60 seat majority and the Republicans are making a mistake by these attacks then encourage more of the same. But, you are very uneasy dingy Harry and you do NOT have this election sown up.

  • exgop, on 10/09/2008, -1/+21Go to hell Harry, I'm sick and tired of the race card being played all the time. Its getting to the point where you might as well be a racist. Everything white America does these days is considered racist anyway. I'm sick of this *****.
  • demicritter, on 10/09/2008, -1/+15Reid, alias Ickabod Crane, has some stones to call someone a racist. His anti-war rhetoric and antics earned him the full-blown label of seditious b@stard numerous times during the election run-up. Reid is a polemic of the highest order. His conduct is less than honorable and his motives are purely selfish. This leech has been sucking the life out of US constituents for over 22 years while adding more useless laws and regulation. Reid is a one-man assault on the freedom and intelligence of US citizens everywhere.
  • tcbishop12, on 10/09/2008, -16/+1Obama’s first book is valuable in the way that it reveals his fundamental attitudes of mind and spirit. “Dreams from My Father” is an illuminating memoir not only in the substance of Obama’s own peculiarly American story but also in the qualities he brings to the telling: a formidable intelligence, emotional empathy, self-reflection, balance, and a remarkable ability to see life and the world through the eyes of people very different from himself. Obama's life has been full of tests—personal, spiritual, racial, political—that bear on his preparation for great responsibility.

    Obama is a man of rigorous honesty, impeccable character, compassion, authenticity and integrity.

    In contrast, John McCain has become a pathetic, twisted shell of a man having no moral or ethical compass. Stooping to lynch mob mentality only confirms the fact that McCain's journey to the dark side - begun long ago -- is now complete.

    Barry Yourgrau said it best: "There is a seething proto-violent ugliness that McCain and Palin are whipping up in their dead enders. Republican politicians with half a soul or brain left better tell McCain to shove the dark genie back in the bottle that is Steve Schmidt's catastrophic bullet head."

    • diggface5000, on 10/09/2008, -0/+9your comment, while amusing, was completely irrelevant.
    • bossm4n, on 10/10/2008, -0/+1Since you're simply trolling around, copying and pasting the exact same comment on any thread that will have you, allow me to paste my comment that I typed the last time I replied to your steaming pile of logic.

      "Obama is a man of rigorous honesty, impeccable character, compassion, authenticity and integrity."

      However, nothing he has done in his political career proves that. For example, he says he will take the public financing route, then changes his mind. His entire philosophy and campaign is built on "change", yet he selects a typical "Beltway Boy", Washington insider for a running mate. In addition, he's taken more in political contributions from those corporations who created our economic crisis than anyone except Chris Dodd. He's shown he's just like every other corrupt politician who piles on the pork to legislation, loading up $350 million in his short career as a senator. How about saying he's against FISA then voting for it. So many more examples of this behavior. Can you not see he's saying what people want to hear, then changing his mind when it suits his political career?

      In regards to all his "friends". It's one thing to point out the policies and practices of those people like Ayers, Wright, etc., but the way Obama has gone about avoiding questions about them, denying their existence or flat out lying about his relationships with them shows anything but integrity. There is simply nothing the man has done that convinces me he is the agent of change he says he is.
  • these3remain, on 10/09/2008, -2/+13"The only connection that people could bring up about Raines and Barack Obama is that they both are African-American other than that there is nothing." Wow! Directly taken from the demonrats party line ~ just keep playing that race card! The reality is that Barack ACORN Uh-bama has a direct connection w/ Raines, who is now one of his advisors. They also have something else in common - both received money from Fannie Mae - although Raines managed to pillage far more. But Uh-bama was the 3rd largest recipient of funds from Fannie Mae's PAC - and he's only been in the senate 2 years - he even beat out John Kerry!
    • mathewsjw1, on 10/09/2008, -1/+7besides the almost $200,000 campaign contributions to NObama from Raines, besides the long term adviser Raines to the NObama Campaign, besides Raines being a paid NObama Staffer, besides ....

    • Psalms83, on 10/09/2008, -0/+8need to find those in congress who opposed regulating fanniemay and other problem banks in the last ten years and vote them out...take close look at your congressman and senators....
  • Gandalff, on 10/09/2008, -0/+12This radio host got it exactly right. He only asked a question about a person and what do you think, and Harry Reid took it to a whole different place. If you did not know the color of his skin before the question it was just a question on financial dealings and links or potential problems for Senator Obama. Then Harry took the NAACP play book out and read right from his script as he cleared his throat.

    Way to keep your composure after being called out as a racists. Also good job also linking Obama at the same time to ACORN.

    I'm sorry
    For something that I didn't do
    Lynched somebody
    But I don't know who
    You blame me for slavery
    A hundred years before I was born
    Guilty of being white
    I'm a convict
    Of a racist crime
    I've only served
    Nineteen years of my time
    =====================
    This song has been popping into my head more and more of late.
    • TruthinessHurts, on 10/10/2008, -0/+1That's because Republicans are determined to never admit any white responsibility for the black condition in America.
      It's hardly surprising that you latch onto a song that you think absolves you of any involvement.
      Yet you still cheer for the GOP and their policies?
      So you ARE part of the problem.

      Yeah, I get that you are saying YOU personally didn't own slaves. That doesn't mean you get to opt out of fixing it.
      Or, since you are GOP, I guess it does.
      Yeah, just leave it up to everyone else.

  • timbo4, on 10/09/2008, -0/+7Looks to me like all Harry Reid sees is skin color. He can't see the issues, just race.

    So if you mention the name Frank Raines your a racist?
  • a2j101, on 10/10/2008, -0/+1Wow, well THIS is encouraging! Guess we might just mop the floors with the Dems asses after all! Sweet! Ok, let's chant: "COMMUNITY REINVESTMENT ACT OF 1977, SIGNED INTO LAW BY JIMMY CARTER" 24 years before Bush even took office. The year the U.S. was brought to its knees and it didn't even know it. And then the Clinton Administration made it even worse! (big surprise, right!) And then the perp list: Raines, Dodd, Barney Frank. They used to hang men like this in public squares for lesser crimes! Maybe we should bring that back, eh?
  • revolter08, on 10/10/2008, -0/+0I would love to say that Harry Reid is at the top of that list also, aj, but he isn't worth the trouble. In the coming revolt, we will all have choose our sides carefully because the enemies of the people are all around. Down with Obama, down with ACORN, down with government regulation!!!
  • Mandinka, on 10/10/2008, -2/+0Dog gone it,if wasn,t for those poor folks and minorities all this stuff wouldn,t be happening.I can,t believe they want to put that scary Black man in the White House , you know the one I mean, THAT ONE. I hear when he was eight years he was running around with Bill Ayers and was member of the Weather Underground that must have been hard on an eight year old.I hear he is Muslim/Christian with a crazy pastor who preached the same sermon every Sunday .Can you believe those Socialist Democrats would back THAT ONE.Its time for good White folks to take a stand you betcha
