Rudy Giuliani: Press Avail 01/27/08

2008-11-19T14:47:43Z

Rudy Giuliani
Press Avail, Paisano's Gourmet Pizza
Port St. Lucie, FL 01/27/08

Transcript: RUDY GIULIANI: We should be talking about what we can accomplish for the people of Florida and then the people of the United States. We should be talking about accomplishing a major tax reduction, to stimulate the economy of Florida and the United States. We should be talking about reducing spending. We should be talking about, and debating, the national catastrophe fund, which people all over Florida have brought to my attention. I learned about this from them, because of their difficulty being able to get insurance for their homes, either get it or afford it. I'm the only candidate that supports it, I'm the only candidate who has already put together a tax program that has been introduced in congress as legislation. It would be the largest tax cut in American history. It would cut a whole range of taxes that would stimulate business and bring in more revenues.

Thanks for viewing. Thank all the supporters of my videos. To all critics and those who blindly trust the media! Turn that television, radio and internet smear machine off. Let real media analysis do the work for you. I am not a fact-checker, journalist or media analysis. I am expressing an honest opinion about the general election and the corrupt mainstream media. And as always, if present any errors in the making of this video, please don't hesitate to send a message and I will correct the record on the next video. For all the critics watching worldwide, "Prove Me Wrong"!

We are expecting an October Surprise, right?

We are hearing talk about Washington Week's Gwen Ifill being in the crosshairs of Matt Drudge and the radical right wing. She will moderate the vice presidential debates at Washington University in St. Louis, Missouri.

We are still watching President Bush and Congress come to a compromise over the $700 billion bailout of corporations.

We are expecting the governor of Alaska Sarah Palin to debate Delaware senator Joe Biden.

We are expecting Senators Barack Obama, John McCain and Joe Biden to cast their judgment on $700 billion bailout of corporations.

We are expecting the decision to determine the fate of former football star OJ Simpson. The man, who was acquitted for murder of Ronald Goldman and his former wife Nicole Brown, is now on trial for alleged kidnapping and aggravated assault with a weapon.

We see men and women who make stupid accusations that Senator Barack Obama is a Muslim. Even one man in Florida said Senator Obama is a Half-Breed Muslin [sic]!

The only Muslims serving in the United States Congress are Keith Ellison of Minnesota and Andre Carson of Indiana. They are both Democrats.

Remember I said soft news stories! Well this one will bring back the boogeyman! Cause many Americans already cast guilt on the man and hope for him to finally be placed behind bars. But if the jury finds Simpson, not guilty, I bet you the right wing pundits will try to tie this decision to Senator Obama.

I have the feeling that Senator Barack Obama will have to respond to the jury's decision. The right wing will make more mountains out of mole hills, like they forced the Jeremiah Wright, pigs in the lipstick and his wife onto the campaign.

The Electoral College is showing a strong shift in the electoral votes. Senator Barack Obama is leading by 353 to 185 for Senator John McCain.

Some [Republicans] are expressing strong concern for Governor Sarah Palin and the lack of strong attacks against Senator Barack Obama. Most of the conservative talk radio pundits want the McCain campaign to push more of the so-called radical associations [Jeremiah Wright, Bill Ayers, ACORN, Tony Rezko, and Franklin Raines].

In my city of Dayton, Ohio, The Clarion Group mailed a DVD to my sister. Its called Obsession: The Radical Islam War Against The West. The DVD is being disturbed into swing states, Florida, Pennsylvania, Ohio, and Michigan. The FBI is looking into a hate crime committed in my community. Two men had sprayed a foreign substance into a Dayton, Ohio Mosque. That video may have inspired these men to cause harm to innocent people.

I have nothing personal against any conservative minded person. But I do have a problem with the hate on radio, television, and newspapers. We credit this movement of conservatives as The DUMB Right.

I thank WTMA's The Southern Avenger for pointing out the very thing many intelligential conservatives and libertarians fear will hurt the Republicans chances at recapturing The White House and Congress. And of course, thank your talk radio commentators and Fox News for allowing the conservative movement to go down in flames!

John McCain: Roundtable 09/30/08

John McCain
Round Table
Des Moines, IA 09/30/08

TRANSCRIPT:
JOHN MCCAIN: In light of the houses failure to act this morning, I spoke to the president about two things that the administration has not done but should do following the inaction of congress. First, the Treasury has already used its exchange stabilization fund to back money market accounts. I encourage it to use this fund as creatively as possible to provide backstop for accounting, accounts across our financial system to maintain confidence on the part of savers and investors. And second, the recent housing bill gave the government nearly $1 trillion dollars and authority to purchase mortgages. Housing and mortgages are at the root of this crisis. I encourage the treasury to take action to shore up mortgage values. The administration can take these actions with the stroke o a pen. To help alleviate the crisis gripping our economy, I urge them to do so.

To all critics: [You] Take Pride In Being Ignorant!

2008-10-23T16:49:46Z

Next video: McCain comes to Dayton: Who will be his choice for VP?

I had to steal the words from a Harvard educated man who became a U.S. Senator and the Democratic presumptive nominee for president. After months of reading comments, I decided to fight back and make sure that everyone who is a critic of the Illinois Senator need a straight up fact check.

Thanks for viewing and post comments at the bottom. As always take a stand against the corporate owned media. Turn that television, radio and internet smear machine off. If you have all your facts together, make logical points, debunk rumors, and take criticism to head: then it's worth the fight. Critics will rate the video poor and attack you personally, but ignore that and keep fighting until you can't fight no more.

Dr. Jerome Corsi, co-author of the infamous book, Unfit for Command: Swift Boat Veterans Speak Out Against John Kerry, is back in the saddle and his target is Senator Barack Obama. The New York Times bestseller Obama Nation: Leftists Politics and the Cult of Personality, is out and has made it to the number one spot. Click on these links: www.nytimes.com and www.nytimes.com

But with all things, the Obama campaign fights back. [Obama campaign] is teaming up with Media Matters for America, to fight against Corsi with their own print: Unfit for Publication: An Investigative Report on The Lies In Jerome Corsi's: Obama Nation. Click on this link: my.barackobama.com

Media Matters for America is a non-profit group that monitors conservative information.
Click on this link mediamatters.org

Here are the links to debunk the most common rumors like: "Oh, he's a Muslim", "He doesn't salute the flag", "He's a racist" or "He doesn't wear his flag lapel".
Click on these links snopes.com and factbeat.com

Here is the link to check Senator Barack Obama's (D-Illinois) voting record and his statements www.govtrack.us
http://www.projectvotesmart.org

Here is the daily tracking of political contributions for Senator Obama and Senator John McCain (R-Arizona): www.newsmeat.com and opensecrets.org

Rick Warren of the Saddleback Church in California hosted a forum on issues in the faith; both presidential candidates attended the event. I will mention some points and highlights of the forum. Speculation of the forum being a set up is being claimed. As Senators Barack Obama and John McCain were questioned by Pastor Warren, word on the street, the McCain campaign didn't heed the word of obliging to the "cone of silence". The Obama campaign did poor job when it came to faith, and it will give ammunition to conservative critics. Liberal critics are amazed how successful McCain joked, and sped through the questions so gracefully when most of the questions required some form of example to why you are a believer in faith. McCain was so good it may have been considered "too good to be true"! Andrea Mitchell of NBC News stated and The New York Times reported on McCain not being in attendance of the forum and could have "cheated" the questions. On my computer, there lies Cindy McCain wife of Senator McCain to the right of her is Kay Warren, the wife of Pastor Warren.
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=132x6654634

So it's clear that McCain may have cheated because a few months back he urged Senator Obama to appear in a town hall in New York. Fox News covered it and then at the end of his town hall, Shepard Smith told the audience that there were no Obama supporters, just McCain supporters, Independent mayor Michael Blomberg, and some independent-leaning McCain supporters.

So that's what the game is. Well Mr. McCain if you are to cheat on your wife , you are more likely to cheat in debates, forums and disadvantaging poor, Black, Latino and Native American voters. Those who vote Democrat, of course. I'll see you in Dayton, Senator John McCain.

Critics: For months I read your comments and responded back to you through messenger. I have debated and debunked myths and falsehoods about Senator Barack Obama. I guess for all the stuff you say about me and those who support the videos, it really becomes infuriating that some Americans are stooping to the level of attacking their fellow man. There is no point in debating those who are blindly [or evenly] ignorant. For every racial epithet, snide comment and poor rating, I will continue to push back with the truth. And for all the hard work and a sense of dedication to my subscribers and friends, I will continue on stronger [and harder].

John McCain: Speech 12/10/07

2008-10-27T03:30:44Z

John McCain
Speech
Aiken, SC 12/10/07

TRANSCRIPT:
MCCAIN: "Great nations, great nations don't leave the lifeblood of their economy in the hands of foreign cartels or bet their future on a commodtiy located in countries where authoritarians repress their people and terrorists find their main support. Terrorists understand the seriousness of our vulnerability. Al Qaeda plans for attacks on oil facilities in the Middle East to destroy the American economy. My friends, a little over year ago a suicide attack at a major Saudi Arabian oil refinery came very close to disabling its target. We are one successful attack away from an economic crisis. The flow of oil has many checkpoints; pipelines, refineries, transit routes, and terminals, most of them outside our jurisdiction and control. Our enemies understand the effects on America of a significant disruption in supply; a crippled transportation system, gasoline too expensive for many Americans to purchase, and businesses closed. Al Qaeda must revel in the irony that America is helping to fund both sides of the war they caused. As we sacrifice blood and treasure, some of our gas dollars go to the fanatics who build the bombs, hatch the plots, and carry out attacks on our soldiers and citizens. Iran made over $45 billion in oil sales in 2005, and it is the number one state sponsor of terrorism. The transfer of American wealth to the MIddle East helps sustain the conditions on which terrorists prey. Some of the most oil-rich nations are some of the most stagnant nations on earth. At $100 per barrel, the United States will spend $400 billion a year purchasing oil from foreign countries. As long as petrodollars flow freely to them, these regimes have little incentive to open their politics and economies so all of their people can benefit from their country's wealth."

How to Write a Grant Proposal that Works - Part 1

2008-10-28T15:30:51Z

For many organizations, grants can be an essential source of capital and funding. However, there are only a limited number of government agencies and foundations offering grant assistance so competition for funding can be fierce. So, it is essential that any grant proposal should contain all the necessary information and be presented in the right manner for it to be successful. In this two-part article I look at the elements that make a successful grant proposal.

Most funders will provide their own application forms and instructions for any grants that they make available. So the first thing you should do is to request the proper forms. In some cases they may accept a generic application form but it won't increase your chances of success. Be sure to read all instructions before you begin preparing your application. If you have doubts about anything or any questions you should contact the funder for advice.

How to Secure Technology Funding Online

2008-10-29T03:29:47Z

Securing technology funding may not be as difficult as you think. While traditional sources of funding such as grants and donations from government agencies and private foundations can be an excellent source of funding, there are other alternatives. And with the competition for grants being so competitive, it is well worth considering some online funding tactics for your technology needs.

Of course this is not an effective method for private businesses. However, for non-profit organizations it is a perfectly legitimate and potentially lucrative source of funding. There are a number of different strategies for raising technology funding online.

At the most basic level, you can simply add a button to your website and the facility for visitors to donate to your organization. This is often done using PayPal and PayPal even provides a ready-made button you can put on your website to facilitate this. This can be an ongoing source of funding with no upper or lower limits on the amount people can donate.

Tips for Securing Technology Funding

2008-10-29T03:29:47Z

Gaining funding from outside sources is essential for non-profit organizations if they are to keep their technology up to date. However, there are countless organizations in competition for limited funding so it is important to have a good knowledge of the grant funding landscape before submitting an application.

One of the most important things to remember when seeking technology funding is that funders want to help non-profit organizations improve and reach their goals. However, any technology spend should be practical and within reasonable financial limits in relation to the size of the organization.

For this reason, the greater the apparent need for the technology the better the chances of securing funding. For example, a school with very old or defunct computers for students will have an excellent chance of securing funding, whereas an application for funding to improve the school's already strong online presence may fail.

The most important points to consider when seeking funding are to submit an excellent grant application and to have a good knowledge of possible funding sources.

Technology Research Funding

2008-10-29T03:29:46Z

Some of the most significant technological advances in our society have depended on funding to make them a reality. For the most part, research funding comes from governments and usually stands at somewhere between 1.5% and 3% of GDP in developed countries.

However, it can be even higher than this in more progressive countries. Of course, not all of this money is dedicated to technology funding. Science and social science research projects also get their fair share.

In fact, competition can be fierce both between and within disciplines when it comes to securing funding. In general, securing funding is a competitive process where the most suitable applicants get the money.

How to Increase your Chances of Securing Technology Funding

2008-10-28T15:30:49Z

In the first part of this article, I gave some basic advice on how to boost your chances of securing technology funding. Here are some more tips that should help your cause.

For an organization to be really successful it needs to be pro-active. This involves making the best use of the resources at hand and making every effort to boost its effectiveness by creating its own revenue (if it is a non-profit organization) and teaming up with other organizations with a view to bringing it closer to its goals.

This will benefit an organization on two fronts. First, it will have the direct benefit of bringing the organization closer to its goals. Second, a funder will always look more favorably on an organization that is pro-active and is likely to put its funds to the best possible use. So, there are some tips on how your organization can make the right impression when it comes to securing technology funding.
