Awesome Campaign Video: Nancy Pelosi, Wicked Witch of the West (More Anti-Bailout Political Theology)

Newest campaign ad from Pelosi's opponent, John Dennis.  More evidence that anti-bailout political theology is the dominant theme this election cycle.  Here's a suggestion.  Start fresh.  Vote them all out in 2010.

A look at John Dennis and his chances against the Pelosi Spending Machine:

That optimistic dominoes theory was greeted with applause, but the biggest cheer of the two-hour forum occurred when John Dennis walked to the podium and said, “I’m John Dennis. I’m running against Nancy Pelosi.” As the hall erupted in applause, Dennis smiled, said, “Thank you” and pretended to walk away as people laughed, then adding, “Do I have to say anything else? She’s God’s gift to applause lines. A lot of people are running and doing fundraisers and saying, ‘My opponent votes 94 percent of the time with Nancy Pelosi.’ This is one thing I can promise you: My opponent votes 100 percent of the time with Nancy Pelosi.”

Dennis gave the crowd what they wanted to hear, criticizing the mixed economic signals from the White House and Congress: “We have regime uncertainty. Which is a polite way of saying, ‘We don’t know what these nuts are going to do next.’ They talk about stimulating the economy. Nancy Pelosi is saying she knows how to spend your money in a way that can magically get the economy going. The American people can do better; they don’t need Nancy Pelosi’s help. It’s time to get her out of the way.”

Dennis, a businessman who grew up in a Jersey City public housing project, acknowledged that people come up to him and say, ‘Why are you dong this? What is the point?’ I’m fed up. And sick of hearing people like Nancy Pelosi lie to our faces about what they are doing. This is not about trying to help people. It’s about her trying to grow the corporation she works for, which is the federal government. I’m fed up with it.”

It remains to be seen whether there are enough like-minded voters in the 8th Congressional District, but Dennis said internal polling indicates that Pelosi’s base is soft. “We are in a fight,” he said. “Can I win? You bet. You watch the world’s attention turn to San Francisco, and they are going to wonder, ‘Oh my God, what’s happening?’ Because we are coming to take Washington D.C. back. Washington D.C. is destroying America. Everything this country was built on has been destroyed by them.”

Dennis, who touts the support of Ron Paul, differed from the other Republican candidates by calling for an end to the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan and criticizing Pelosi for not having done more to end them sooner.

Boston University professor Laurence Kotlikoff, who warned as far back as the 1980s of the dangers of a public deficit, lent credence to such dark predictions in an International Monetary Fund publication last week.

He unveiled a doomsday scenario -- which many dismiss as pure fantasy -- of an economic clash between superpowers the United States and China, which holds more than 843 billion dollars of US Treasury bonds.

"A minor trade dispute between the United States and China could make some people think that other people are going to sell US treasury bonds," he wrote in the IMF's Finance & Development review.

"That belief, coupled with major concern about inflation, could lead to a sell-off of government bonds that causes the public to withdraw their bank deposits and buy durable goods."

Kotlikoff warned such a move would spark a run on banks and money market funds as well as insurance companies as policy holders cash in their surrender values.

"In a short period of time, the Federal Reserve would have to print trillions of dollars to cover its explicit and implicit guarantees. All that new money could produce strong inflation, perhaps hyperinflation," he said.

The state of Pennsylvania has stepped in to help its capital city Harrisburg avoid a default by advancing next year’s state aid so that the money can be used to make a $3.3m bond interest payment due this week.

The minimum common equity level requirement was lifted to 4.5%, from 2%, and banks will also now be required to hold a capital conservation buffer of 2.5% "to withstand future periods of stress," the group of governors and supervisory heads in the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision announced.

Global regulators pushed through a historic remake of the world's banking regulations—forcing financial institutions to increase protections against unexpected losses—with the ripple effects likely to impact everything from mortgages to commercial loans to credit cards in coming years.

The new rules are designed to rein in the kinds of risky activities that contributed to the financial crisis that upended Wall Street and shook the global economy to the core.

But under pressure to avoid derailing the stuttering economic recovery by crimping credit, regulators agreed to phase in the rules over more than eight years—a longer time frame than U.S. regulators had hoped for.

"The recovery is slow and we want to move to these higher standards in a gradual way," said Stefan Walter, secretary general of the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision, which coordinated the negotiations. "It's a balanced approach."

The White House press secretary is accusing former House Speaker Newt Gingrich of pandering to a minority of people that don't believe President Barack Obama was born in the US.

Gingrich sparked controversy Saturday when he told National Review that the president had a "Kenyan, anti-colonial" attitude.
