Joe Biden to return to Missouri this week
Fresh off his widely praised debate performance last week at Washington University in St. Louis, Democratic Vice Presidential Nominee Joe Biden will return to Missouri this week to spend two days holding events that will focus on the economy. The Obama campaign has not yet said where the events will be held.
Barack Obama and Joe Biden have a plan to offer 95% of America’s working families tax relief, keep good paying jobs from going overseas and strengthen our economy. John McCain is only offering four more years of the same failed Bush economic policies that have sent Missouri’s jobs overseas and burdened middle class families.
Senator Biden will discuss the choice that American families face in this election at events across the state. Additional details to be announced as they become available.

Most low to moderate working class families do not pay federal income taxes but receive refunds on their federal return because of the Bush tax credits such as earned income tax, childcare, child tax, addtional child tax and education “hope and lifetime learning” credits that are set to be repealed in 2010.
McCain’s tax plan will increase these Bush tax credits that currently benefit working class families and lower taxes on small business and corporations to create jobs in America.
Obama’s tax plan will increase taxes on small business which is the engine of the American economy that creates jobs for working class families. Obama’s tax plan will also include more government sponsored programs that allow crooked politicians and abusers to receive more money from these programs than the poor people they handicap!
Case in point, Obama received more money from the failed financial institutions FannieMae, FreddieMac and Lehman Brothers that contributed to the mortgage meltdown/economic crisis facing America and the world today. FannieMae and FreddieMac were quasi-government companies that purchased more than 80 percent of the subprime loans that were made through government sponsored mortgage loan programs such as no down payment, no documentation and 100 percent financing that were designed to help the poor become homeowners.
Due to the lack of oversight of FannieMae and FreddieMac blocked by the democratic party opposition, greedy loan officers, mortgage brokers and real estate professionals took advantage of these poor people and sold them homes that were not worth the paper they signed at closing with unconscionable loan terms that contributed to the skyrocketed foreclosures and inflated home values seen today.
President Bush warned Congress in 2003 of FannieMae and FreddieMac’s wreckless behavior and John McCain introduced legislation to increase regulation of these financial institutions in 2005, but democrats like Lacy Clay, played the race card and suggested that their actions were nothing short of a modern day lynching!
Barack Obama is the politician who received the most money from FannieMae, FreddieMac and Lehman Brothers and blocked oversight to reign in spending to protect taxpayers from their high risk of collapse due to subprime loans that benefitted crooked politicians and abusers at the taxpayers expense.
How the hell can you put the fox in the hen house and expect the hens to survive? McCain/Palin for people who don’t want BIG government that keep people poor while making crooked politicians and abusers rich!

Man, Thanks Notalacyfan, I thought I’d have to tune into Fox News to get verbatim Sean Hannity talking points, but you’ve spared me the mouse over effort. Thanks buddy.
