Not surprisingly the Big Media have kept the American public blind to the truth about Obama, including...
We at HUMAN EVENTS are set to embark on a massive truth-telling mission to unmask the real Barack Obama. And just like in 2004 when concerned Americans exploded John Kerry's presidential aspirations by helping the Swift Boat Veterans get out the truth about him. . .
We're going to stop the Obama campaign juggernaut dead in its tracks!
Just wait until Americans read the special editorial supplement produced (together with our sister company, RedState.com) by our HUMAN EVENTS team called "The Truth about Obama: What Every Citizen Needs to Know".
You see, while the Obama campaign is dying to keep the skeletons in Obama's closet hidden for just three more months, we plan to tell the truth to the American public before November.
Sadly, money talks when it comes to reporting the truth today. And we at HUMAN EVENTS have barely enough to stay afloat in today's difficult economy -- a situation I'm sure you can appreciate.
In addition, HUMAN EVENTS just bore the cost of including this special supplement into the 5,000 issues of HUMAN EVENTS we distributed at the Republican National Convention.
With the money we do have left, we vow to expose the dangerous liberalism of Barack Obama in the pages of HUMAN EVENTS every week and on our website HumanEvents.com every day.
But we need your help, my friend, to cover the costs of printing and delivering boxes of our special editorial supplement, "The Truth about Obama: What Every Citizen Needs to Know" to activist conservative students on college campuses and to selected media outlets across the country.
Why college campuses and media outlets? Simple...Young voters -- including our own children and grandchildren -- are today being indoctrinated by biased liberal "educators" who distort the truth about terrorism, the reason for the energy crisis, spending, education and Barack Obama.
Our friends at key conservative organizations are providing us with the names and addresses of the conservative student leaders who are fighting on the front lines this election year.
By sending "The Truth about Obama" to conservative student leaders at every college campus in America, we're arming young conservatives with the facts about Barack Obama that they need to know.
And just as it's our responsibility to ensure that America's young voters know the straight facts about Obama, so too with the American public.
That's why we're sending "The Truth about Obama" to major media outlets across the country. Because we simply cannot let the Big Media from New York, Washington, Los Angeles and other large cities continue to have their way, covering up the truth about Obama, the man who repeatedly promises "change" but will give us the same old liberal policies that have failed for 40+ years.
As our loyal friend, you know that HUMAN EVENTS has been the stalwart defender of conservative principles and traditional values since 1944 -- longer than any other newsweekly.
Help us spread the conservative message even further by making it possible for us to deliver the report to every college campus and every media outlet in America as soon as possible.
Your contribution to this campaign will allow us to deliver boxes of "The Truth about Obama" to conservative student leaders on college campuses and to the opinion leaders at major media outlets. Just imagine the impact if we could afford to deliver one box to every campus and media outlet in America!
To express our gratitude for your donation of just $50 or more, we'll send you a complimentary copy of David Fredosso's brand-new New York Times bestseller, The Case Against Barack Obama: The Unlikely Rise and Unexamined Agenda of the Media's Favorite Candidate. Freddoso's comprehensive book serves to remove, once and for all, the halo from a man with fewer qualifications, and a more radical agenda, than the mainstream media lets on.
Of course, we'll send you a copy of our special report, "The Truth about Obama: What Every Citizen Needs to Know", to thank you for your contribution big or small. Any amount will be appreciated and will help "The Truth about Obama" reach more fact-hungry Americans.
These are critical times for our country. We must not allow the Big Media and liberal college campuses to succeed in placing one of the most liberal an inexperienced candidates ever in the White House.
Dear Conservative Friend,
They say the truth hurts. In Barack Obama's case, it is simply devastating.
Why college campuses and media outlets? Simple...
Young voters -- including our own children and grandchildren -- are today being indoctrinated by biased liberal "educators" who distort the truth about terrorism, the reason for the energy crisis, spending, education and Barack Obama.

Fannie Mae Eases Credit September 30, 1999 To Aid Mortgage Lending By STEVEN A. HOLMES In a move that could help increase home ownership rates among minorities and low-income consumers, the Fannie Mae Corporation is easing the credit requirements on loans that it will purchase from banks and other lenders. The action, which will begin as a pilot program involving 24 banks in 15 markets -- including the New York metropolitan region -- will encourage those banks to extend home mortgages to individuals whose credit is generally not good enough to qualify for conventional loans. Fannie Mae officials say they hope to make it a nationwide program by next spring. Fannie Mae, the nation's biggest underwriter of home mortgages, has been under increasing pressure from the Clinton Administration to expand mortgage loans among low and moderate income people and felt pressure from stock holders to maintain its phenomenal growth in profits. In addition, banks, thrift institutions and mortgage companies have been pressing Fannie Mae to help them make more loans to so-called subprime borrowers. These borrowers whose incomes, credit ratings and savings are not good enough to qualify for conventional loans, can only get loans from finance companies that charge much higher interest rates -- anywhere from three to four percentage points higher than conventional loans. ''Fannie Mae has expanded home ownership for millions of families in the 1990's by reducing down payment requirements,'' said Franklin D. Raines, Fannie Mae's chairman and chief executive officer. ''Yet there remain too many borrowers whose credit is just a notch below what our underwriting has required who have been relegated to paying significantly higher mortgage rates in the so-called subprime market.'' Demographic information on these borrowers is sketchy. But at least one study indicates that 18 percent of the loans in the subprime market went to black borrowers, compared to 5 per cent of loans in the conventional loan market. In moving, even tentatively, into this new area of lending, Fannie Mae is taking on significantly more risk, which may not pose any difficulties during flush economic times. But the government-subsidized corporation may run into trouble in an economic downturn, prompting a government rescue similar to that of the savings and loan industry in the 1980's. ''From the perspective of many people, including me, this is another thrift industry growing up around us,'' said Peter Wallison a resident fellow at the American Enterprise Institute. ''If they fail, the government will have to step up and bail them out the way it stepped up and bailed out the thrift industry.'' Under Fannie Mae's pilot program, consumers who qualify can secure a mortgage with an interest rate one percentage point above that of a conventional, 30-year fixed rate mortgage of less than $240,000 -- a rate that currently averages about 7.76 per cent. If the borrower makes his or her monthly payments on time for two years, the one percentage point premium is dropped. Fannie Mae, the nation's biggest underwriter of home mortgages, does not lend money directly to consumers. Instead, it purchases loans that banks make on what is called the secondary market. By expanding the type of loans that it will buy, Fannie Mae is hoping to spur banks to make more loans to people with less-than-stellar credit ratings. Fannie Mae officials stress that the new mortgages will be extended to all potential borrowers who can qualify for a mortgage. But they add that the move is intended in part to increase the number of minority and low income home owners who tend to have worse credit ratings than non-Hispanic whites. Home ownership has, in fact, exploded among minorities during the economic boom of the 1990's. The number of mortgages extended to Hispanic applicants jumped by 87.2 per cent from 1993 to 1998, according to Harvard University 's Joint Center for Housing Studies. During that same period the number of African Americans who got mortgages to buy a home increased by 71.9 per cent and the number of Asian Americans by 46.3 per cent. In contrast, the number of non-Hispanic whites who received loans for homes increased by 31.2 per cent. Despite these gains, home ownership rates for minorities continue to lag behind non-Hispanic whites, in part because blacks and Hispanics in particular tend to have on average worse credit ratings. In July, the Department of Housing and Urban Development proposed that by the year 2001, 50 percent of Fannie Mae's and Freddie Mac's portfolio be made up of loans to low and moderate-income borrowers. Last year, 44 percent of the loans Fannie Mae purchased were from these groups. The change in policy also comes at the same time that HUD is investigating allegations of racial discrimination in the automated underwriting systems used by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac to determine the credit-worthiness of credit applicants.
So, come on America!
