There are more gangs in this country that are not with people of color and you very seldom see them dragged in by the hands RICO. When its people of color organizing in any manner its a called a gang when its the Brothers of the confederates or the Arian nation wearing their military attire its an organization. Children of color are being targeted as gangs whether or not they are trully in them and the RICO law is being applied at the school house. We need to educate ourselves and neighbors and our childre on this trend and ask yourself is this the solution to the problem. We need to mobilize ourselves to stand up against such injustice. Stand up for one and stand up for all. Free Andre Scott!

The Case of Andre Scott PLEASE HELP STOP THIS MADNESS IN GEORGIA - THEY ARE COMING FOR OUR CHILDREN IN MORE WAYS THAN ONE. GENOCIDE AT ITS FINEST. Andre Scott a 17 year old up and coming youth in Fayettville Georgia has been sentenced to 4 years in Prison. This Young Man who was about to finish High Scool was expelled and arrested some time after a fight in the school bathroom that he did not even participate in. Although there was no serious injury to any of the participants in this fight, and the incident was filmed, the police department still proceeded to destroy The lives of some of these children, and in particular Andre Scott. He was charged with a ridiculous state statute which is designed to incarcerate Our Youth as "gang members". Although Andre who has had no prior arrests and was not and is not a member of a gang, he was sentenced to 4 YEARS ??? The "street gang statue" ocg916-15-4 is being challenged by community activist who have seen many young people abused by this color of law. Those who live in Georgia or are interested in helping the family with legal expenses around this case can contact : Families Against Legalized Violence by emailing FALV44@yahoo.com. You can also write to Andre Scott at : 2 Center Drive Fayettville, Ga 30214 And let him know that People are concerned about him. Andre had finished High School through a homestudy course, and had been working until he was sentenced. The family is thankful for all help that is given

Date / Time: 10/5/2008 12:43 PM SOME CROOKS GO TO JAIL OTHERS RUN FOR PRESIDENT The WakeUpCallshow intends to remind every voter on need to know information about John Mccain. It was awfuly smart of him to pick such a controversial VP to keep all eyes off of him as he slithers his way in as to keep us from be reminded about some skeletons in his closet. Do you remember his role with S& L scandal with the Keaton Five. He and his buddies cost the American people billions of dollars with this ethic scandal. Wow he has always been good at manuevering his way out once the shi@#$ hits the fan. It was nice of him to ask to suspend the debate but Mccain needed to be reminded that people in hell want ice water. We can no longer just turn the other cheek while John McCain continues his lies in public. Do your homework its all there on record. John Mccain once admitted to intentionally filing false income tax returns to defraud the IRS by not claiming thousands of dollars in gifts McCain and his family received from Charles Keating and Keating’s company. Yes the same buddy in the keaton five scandal. Years later, when the IRS noticed Keating’s company had written the gifts off to McCain as business expenses, McCain fessed up and admitted filing false returns and made a “donation” to the U.S. Treasury to cover the amount he defrauded American tax payers. McCain also leaked information about the Keating Five to the press multiple times in an effort to appear above the other Senators in the scandal. This is his history of behaviour simillar to how he played his fellow POWs in Vietnam. A 1989 Phoenix New Times article summed it up best with thier title - McCain: The Most Reprehensible of the Keating Five. Well the fruit is not falling far from the tree either with his wife, Cindy McCain, along with her father who made a $359,000 investment in retail property owned by Charles Keating in 1986, a year before John McCain first met with federal regulators on behalf of Keating. Keating was later convicted on 73 counts of fraud, conspiracy, and other crimes. Years later, Cindy McCain sold her investment for $15,000,000. For anyone not aware of the Keating Five, here’s a very simple summary: Charles Keating owned a savings and loan in California. He was illegally using the money of his bank’s customers to give loans to himself and friends that they didn’t have to repay, and to speculate on risky real estate investments, which was strictly forbidden by U.S. law (and was one cause of the Great Depression). When the feds found out what was going on and launched an investigation into Keating and his company, Keating called five U.S. Senators whom he had wined, dined, and lavished with hundreds of thousands of dollars in campaign donations and personal gifts. Keating asked the five Senators to tell the feds to bug off, and the five Senators, later known as the Keating Five, obliged, meeting with federal investigators twice and pressuring them to stop investigating Keating’s crimes. They bought Keating some time, but the feds didn’t give up and eventually Keating was nailed. The reason the feds were so persistent was because Keating wasn’t playing with mere chump change. Keating blew $3.4 billion through illegal personal loans and bad investments, and the FDIC had to reimburse Keating’s customers who had been ripped off. (Background Info - Keating wasn’t the only Savings and Loan owner who was committing fraud, 20% of the S&L’s that failed during that three year period were found to have been caused by fraud and/or insider trading. The failure of the Lincoln Savings and Loan and other S&L’s pushed the country into a recession, costing the U.S. government $126 billion dollars in FDIC insurance payouts to investors. All of this came to a crescendo during the first year of the presidency of George H.W. Bush, who pushed through the S&L bailout plan to keep the economy afloat.) When the involvement of the Keating Five was made public, a scandal erupted and the Senate Ethics Committee launched their own investigation into whether the Keating Five had violated Senate ethics rules. The other four Senators left office either immediately or within one term. John McCain was formally rebuked by the Senate Ethics Committee for exercising “poor judgment” for intervening with the federal regulators on behalf of Keating, but because McCain accepted Keating’s gifts of travel and vacations to Bahama while McCain was a member of the House of Representatives (he served one term there before moving to the Senate), the Senate claimed they had no jurisdiction to censure McCain. (However the meetings to pressure federal regulators occurred during the first few months of McCain serving in the Senate in 1987, so that excuse doesn’t hold up). John McCain then went back to the drawing board and re-invented himself as “the Straight-Talk Express” and the media gobbled it up. “Tax-Evading-Criminal” doesn’t sound as catchy as “Straight-Shooting-War-Hero”. Ever since the scandal, when McCain lies today, it’s never questioned, because he’s a “straight talker”. The man has more skeletons in his closet than any politician in history. The Keating Five is just one bone. After reading the Slate article, ask yourself: if Obama or any other candidate had a scandal such as the Keating Five in their past, would the mainstream media never question it? Could any other candidate even have a political career after the Keating Five? For the other four Senators, the answer is no. And while Charles Keating went to prison for his role in the scandal, John McCain swept it under the rug and could soon be President of the United States of America. Perhaps while he is so busy digging a hole for Obama to fall in with all these great ads tying Obama to the detroit mayor and Kenya leaders, Rev Wright. He may fall in it himself when people begin to really look closely at this crook. Its no wonder our economy is in shambles look at the folks we have operating our goverment. Look at thier background. We should be reminded of Mccain's circle of close friends and business partners such as Graham, and Karl Rove and some of these others in his group that are behind deregulation and taking money from lobbyist and much more. LOOK AT THE VIDEO on wakeupcallshow profile screen ON WHY MCCAIN SHOULD NOT BE VOTED IN AS PRESIDENT IT REMINDS OF THE OLD AND THE NEW. IT IS VERY MUCH ON POINT AND A COULD REMINDED OF MCCAIN'S EXTREME BEHAVIOUR, HIS LIES AND LACK OF GOOD JUDGMENT AND IMPULSIVENESS. He glorifies his own military service while voting against veterans, he opposed the additional funding for safe military equipment for amored vehicles for soldiers in Iraq costing many thier lives. He didnt support the increase on the GI Bill. He has also voted against increases in veterans healthcare while supporting price cuts for the wealthy though. Well John why dont you support your fellow veterans, since you are proud of military service? Lets keep it real and not be fooled by this man who only will put us in another war. Host Wake Up Call

Exclusive: Obama to hit McCain on Keating Five Mike Allen Sun Oct 5, 11:09 PM ET Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.) on Monday will launch a multimedia campaign to draw attention to the involvement of Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) in the “Keating Five” savings-and-loan scandal of 1989-91, which blemished McCain’s public image and set him on his course as a self-styled reformer. ADVERTISEMENT Retaliating for what it calls McCain's “guilt-by-association” tactics, the Obama campaign is e-mailing millions of supporters a link to a website, KeatingEconomics.com, which will have a 13-minute documentary on the scandal beginning at noon Eastern time on Monday. The overnight e-mails urge recipients to pass the link on to friends. The Obama campaign, including its surrogates appearing on radio and television, will argue that the deregulatory fervor that caused massive, cascading savings-and-loan collapses in the late ‘80s was pursued by McCain throughout his career, and helped cause the current credit crisis. Obama-Biden communications director Dan Pfeiffer said: “While John McCain may want to turn the page on his erratic response to the current economic crisis, we think voters will find his involvement in a similar crisis to be particularly interesting. His involvement with Keating is a window into McCain’s economic past, present, and future.” Obama’s offensive comes after McCain’s running mate, Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, spent two days telling voters, donors and reporters that Obama showed poor judgment in his relationship with the former radical William Ayers. McCain’s campaign has vowed to make a major issue of Obama’s Chicago relationships in coming days, with a senior McCain official telling Politico that they are “the vehicle that allows us to question Obama’s truthfulness about his past and his plans for the future.” The McCain campaign also plans to invoke money launderer Tony Rezko. Officials say they will not bring up Obama's former minister, the Rev. Jeremiah Wright, because McCain has forbade his campaign from using that as an attack. But the officials said outside groups supporting McCain might highlight Wright. Responding to the Keating blast from the past, a Republican official said the Obama team seemed "frantic" at "the mere mention of the word 'Ayers.'" “The fact that the Obama team is recycling this old garbage 24 hours after Bill Ayers entered the race is a testament to how worried the Obama camp is of an unfettered airing of his associations," the official said. "Obama is a clever enough politician to know that his unexplored relationships with terrorists and felons are a serious liability in a race this close.” The Obama website says: “The current economic crisis demands that we understand John McCain's attitudes about economic oversight and corporate influence in federal regulation. ... The Keating scandal is eerily similar to today's credit crisis, where a lack of regulation and cozy relationships between the financial industry and Congress has allowed banks to make risky loans and profit by bending the rules.” In 1991, the Senate Ethics Committee cleared McCain of corruption charges but cited him for “poor judgment” in meeting with federal regulators on behalf of Charles H. Keating Jr., a political patron who went to prison for fraud in connection with the collapse of the California-based Lincoln Savings and Loan Association, which at the time was one of the biggest financial failures in the nation’s history. A trailer for the campaign-produced documentary features William K. Black, a former bank regulator who McCain met with in the Keating case, saying: “The Keating Five involved all the things that have brought the modern crisis. Senator McCain has not learned the lesson, and has continued to follow policies that are going to produce a disaster.” The Obama website has news clips and a narrative explaining the scandal and McCain’s involvement for voters and reporters. The Keating episode took a searing toll on the senator and his wife, Cindy. Robert Timberg, in his 1999 biography “John McCain: An American Odyssey,” wrote that the trouble began with the senator “carelessly choosing his friends.” “McCain had stumbled into a scandal of immense proportions,” Timberg wrote. “Charles Keating, it turned out, had built his financial empire on the life savings of elderly retirees, men and women who watched helplessly as their dreams were snuffed out along with the assets of Keating’s Lincoln Savings and Loan Association. “The story was complicated, but the press found a tag line that simplified it. McCain and four other senators with ties to Keating were dubbed ‘the Keating Five.’ The label stuck, imputing to all the same degree of guilt even though it soon became evident that at least two, McCain and former astronaut John Glenn of Ohio, were far less culpable, if they were culpable at all.” Rep. Rahm Emanuel (D-Ill.), a close Obama adviser who is the fourth-ranking House Democratic leader, brought up McCain’s association with Keating on CNN’s “Late Edition” on Sunday. “John McCain got admonished by the Senate Ethics Committee for that,” Emanuel said.

IS IT YOUR RESPONSIBILITY AS A PARENT TO RAISE A SUFFERING NEWBORN AGAINST YOUR WILL AND RESOLVE AS A PERSON FIRST, PARENT SECOND. SHOULD A PARENT HAVE THE RIGHT TO MAKE A DECISION ON THE ABUNDANCE OF LIFE ON AN UNBORN INFANT WITH ILLNESS AND BIRTH DEFECTS? JOIN SOUNDOFF NOW AND ANGEL EYES FOR THIS EMOTIONAL SEGMENT!
