The scary part is
who gave the money? A billion bucks does not come from $5 donations. He

Pretty serious list of malcreants, there.

Sad that to see universities, et al on top contributor list. Obama's
handlers removed most checks and balances on the contributions page. Name
of the donor did not have to match the credit card, etc. Lyndon LaRouche
went to jail for the same thing. Between those top contributors there is a
large gap to be filled to $1 Billion bucks.

LOL. Larouche went to jail for tax fraud. He was tried for fraud
associated with fundraising, but that did not stick. The charges were
based on his allegedly claiming that book sales and 'loans' were
reported as donations so he could claim matching federal monies. (BTW,
I got this from wikipedia...if you have more accurate facts, I am
happy to hear them). AFAIK, Obama specifically did not claim any
federal monies, nor did he misrepresent any donations as anything
else.

If you are making the claim that Obama ran a scam or was somehow in
the same category as Lyndon Larouche, history awaits you and your
lawsiut, my man.

I am just stating that a Billion bucks does not come from $5 donations. He
owes some people big time. We are going to be screwed anyway. We have the
Fed driving the interest rates down, at the same time Obama and the next
administration are promising Billions, towards of a 1000 billion in new
spending. Driving the interest rates down and printing money will cause
massive inflation. Maybe, most likely Carter years inflation. 18%. This
will do a couple of things. Some slightly OK, but most bad. The
governments will get a big increase in tax revenue. About 1.2% for every 1%
of inflation. Houses will go up in value, so the loans may not be upside
down. This will be the somewhat OK part, but the real value will have
decreased. Probably the best thing Obama could do would be to kill the
Federal Reserve System. It has no reserves and is not Federal, but controls
the money supply. The only way we are going to really get out of the mess,
is for the governments to quit overspending. Is not the Iraq war as lots
claim. That is less 4% of the Federal Budget and we would be spending part
of that money on the military anyway. It is the other 96% that needs
control. We have not been fixing the infrastructure for many, many years.
Lots more than the last 3 administrations. The Federal Department of
Education controls education in the USA. Has not done a good job, but an
expensive poor job. Most of the controls are via grants of money taken from
a state and sent back at maybe 76% with strings attached. Look at the
dismal graduation rates, and the poor performance of lots of those
graduates. We did not even have a DOE until 1980. I actually liked the
Libertarian platform the best. If were are going to do income
redistribution, lets bring back the WPA. At least we will get something for
our money.
