Obama's Fishy $200 Million

Who will investigate before Election Day? Also: Barney and Fannie.

According to a former Democrat staffer working for the House Committee on Financial Services, there were a number of stories involving Democrat members of the committee, as well as staffers for those Democrats, participating in retreats and getaway weekends paid for by Fan and Fred executives and lobbyists.

"Republicans were in the majority, and they weren't getting invited on these trips," says the former aide, who now works for an investment house in New York. "It's not that Republicans weren't enjoying themselves, but not the way my guys were. If I were a Democratic member in the mid to late 90s and dealt with financial services or housing issues, I'd be real nervous right now."

Frank has not hidden the fact that he was in a romantic relationship with a former executive for Fannie Mae. Frank now chairs the Financial Services Committee and was one of several longtime Democrat members who sought assurances from Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi that no action would be taken on Fan or Fred investigations until after the election in November.

Is there any new information on the investigation of the $200 million in potentially illegal donations? Individuals or organizations don't just give money like this away because they like someone-they are expecting something in return! This should not be ignored! It could be potentially determintal to the Country as a whole and we should all be concerned!

Why do we need such a SWF to MP4 Converter Mac software?
As you know, MP4 formats are popularly used in many portable players, such as iPod, itouch, and even the mobile phone. Most people make every attempt to find MP4 files on Mac, such as wonderful movie, MTV, or Flash and hope to put it onto the portable player. However, things always turn out the way you want.
now, things turn on the way you want because we have SWF to MOV Mac,
