I got an email from a good, undecided friend, asking if this is true. I have heard about Raines, that it is not true, but I don't know about the others, and need the facts for refutation. Please read and help me answer her.

If she got it, so did many others, how can we counter with our own viral emails?

Men who brought down Wall Street....................

Be sure to read the 'where they are now'!!

Here is a quick look into 3 former Fannie Mae executives who have brought down Wall Street.

WHERE ARE THEY NOW?

FRANKLIN RAINES? Raines works for the Obama Campaign as Chief Economic Advisor

TIM HOWARD? Howard is also a Chief Economic Advisor to Obama

JIM JOHNSON? Johnson hired as a Senior Obama Finance Advisor and was selected to run Obama's Vice Presidential Search Committee

This was in today's issue of HaAretz in English, on line.

It reports on a group of high-level ISRAELI security and intelligence experts explaining why Obama would be better than a continuation of Bush's failed policies in the Middle East.

Please send this to ALL of those bubbies in Florida that Sarah Silverstein wants you to visit:

It's totally persuasive -- I persuaded a wobbling New Jersey voter today, just reading her the article over the phone.

I am mainly a lurker but I had to share this!

This article appeared in today's HaAretz newspaper, Israeli's most left-wing newspaper, and one of the best. There are some good quotes about how wrong it is for Israel to appease the Bush administration, and also some good analysis of how bad the Middle East is now that the Bushies have had their way.

I am not exactly a first-timer, but I have been lurking for many years and am seldom moved to diary. But this article seems to be worth sharing with the dkos community.

I found this on the Boston Globe site:

WASHINGTON -- A dozen years after he engineered his party's takeover of Congress, former House Speaker Newt Gingrich is warning that his fellow Republicans could be swept out of power themselves.

''They are seen by the country as being in charge of a government that can't function," he said in an interview last week. ''We could lose control this fall."
