Do People Give Ron Paul Enough Credit?
Posted by Sal Traina Categories: US Economy, Videos, Wall Street
He predicted this mess we’re in now in 2003, almost three years before John McCain predicted it. Ron Paul is not my first choice for President, but he deserves way more credit than he gets. His strong suit is economics, and he could mop the floor with McCain and Obama on this subject.
On Sept. 10, 2003, U.S. Rep. Ron Paul, R-Texas, testified before House Financial Services Committee, which was holding hearings regarding special privileges extended to government sponsored enterprises (GSEs). Think Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. In his testimony. Paul criticized such privileges in general and warned of the potential for disaster posed by government involvement with Fannie and Freddie specifically.

Be afraid… be VERY afraid! Either this kid is going to be a great comedic actor when he grows up OR he’s going to be the downfall of mankind.
Jessica Alba + Hayden Panettiere + A Muzzle = HOT!
Posted by Dennis Velasco Categories: Elections, Humor, Videos
Okay, I get the message… I need to vote. Considering that I already plan to vote as I have every single time when I’ve HAD TO (yes, I say it like my life depends on it because it sort of does), I can totally ignore the depth behind the surface of this video and totally just focus on the facade. And that facade is HOT! Seriously, you have Jessica Alba and a bubbly Hayden Panettiere (she’s legal now, right?) promoting A MUZZLE! I’m not saying I’m into S&M or anything like that (but check out the website for this - TheMuzzler.com), nor do I approve of the symbolic “a girl should just look pretty and not speak” (remember, I’m not about depth in this post), but these two can make anything look HOT!
Have I emphasized the hotness of this yet?
In all seriousness, I can appreciate it when people, whoever they are, can go against the grain and make fun of themselves to whatever degree. And while Alba and Panettiere do it well, in the end, it really is a funny video with a very strong message for people, especially the youth, to go out there and vote. SO young people, please register and vote. Damn, I guess I lied about not looking for the depth in this video.
I just figured that your life depended on voting as well.
PSA - 5 Friends Uncensored - Celebs Speak On It!

What better way to start a politics blog other than to urge all of you to vote. And who better to do it than the “gods” of our society - celebrities. Usually, the more outspoken celebs lean towards the left, but this video is a non-partisan pitch for the youth to register and use their power to elect the next President of the United States of America. In the video you will see (in alphabetical order): Amy Adams, will.i.am, Jennifer Aniston, Kevin Bacon, Halle Berry, Kate Bosworth, Kevin Connolly, Courteney Cox, Ellen DeGeneres, Leonardo DiCaprio, Jamie Foxx, Jonah Hill, Dustin Hoffman, Anthony Kiedis, Ashton Kutcher, Adam Levine, Laura Linney, Eva Longoria, Tobey Maguire, Demi Moore, Natalie Portman, Giovanni Ribisi, Ethan Suplee, Kyra Sedgwick, Michelle Trachtenberg, Usher, and Forest Whitaker. Check it out and get off your butts! Registration deadlines for some states are only a day or two away! Let’s make a difference.
In the latest edition of his Diddy Vlog (this would apparently be #24, if we want to be exact), hip hop mogul Diddy seems to have resorted to lunacy in his attempts to get his fans to get out there to register and vote this November. As you’ll see in the video, Diddy is scared. The culprit? Sarah Palin. Hey, I’m as scared of her as the next guy, but at the very least, I can articulate why I’m scared. It would have been nice if Diddy would have went that extra mile to actually put a message out there.
In the video, he does show that clip of Sarah Palin talking with Katie Couric about which magazines and newspapers she reads to keep up with everything going on - you know, the one where Sarah couldn’t name one single source? But still, that isn’t enough. At least at the end he throws out the call to action. Get out there and vote, peeps.
