IS ACORN RESPONSIBLE FOR CHASE BANK'S DECISION TO RAISE MONTHLY MINIMUM PAYMENTS ON OVER A MILLION "BITTER" AMERICANS WITH EXCELLENT PAYMENT RECORDS?

You might not know somebody who has been affected by Chase Bank's decision to raise the monthly minimum payment requirement from 2% to 5% on over a million of their most trustworthy and reliable customers, to repeat...

You might not know somebody who has been affected by Chase Bank's decision to raise the monthly minimum payment on over a million of their most trustworthy and reliable customers, simply because they are afraid or ashamed to say anything to you about it.

It is amazing to me that Chase Bank can create so much concern and anxiety over their hostile financial actions that hits to Daily-Protest.com have tripled in just the past few days.

It will be disappointing to me if more PUMA's don't get involved in the Chase Bank protests simply because this is a financial swindle being pulled off in the worst of economic times, and I believe that PUMA's are bearing the brunt of this economic swindle.

What you personally think about how other people have used credit is not the issue, what matters MORE is giving everybody a FAIR chance to pay down their debts.

ACORN may be the reason that over a million Chase Bank Customers are in danger of losing either their home or their excellent credit score.

Did Chase Bank go after a million of their best, most reliable customers in an effort to damage these customers credit rating so they will PAY HIGHER INTEREST RATES on their future debt?

It is possible that Barack Obama and the same people who manipulated the 2008 elections figure that "bitter, middle america" will not fight them over the Chase Bank 150% Increase in the Monthly Minimum Credit Card Payment Swindle that is currently going on.

It is also possible that the money Chase Bank is swindling from over one million of their most trustworthy, reliable, "BITTER" customers will go to help ACORN members get better deals on their home mortgage deals.

It would not surprise me to learn that ACORN ACOLYTES KNOW they can run away from credit card debt more easily than unmanagable mortgage debt, whereas us "bitter americans" will try with all of our might to pay ALL of our debts.

Even when companies like Chase Bank try to ruin our credit history with gargantuan increases in the monthly minimum payment that over a million Chase Bank customers MUST now shoulder, Chase bank believes we will continue to be law abiding sheep and pay the higher interest rates that comes with ruined credit.

It may be a very bad sign for "Bitter" Americans if ACORN is only fighting for home mortgage issues and AVOIDING the credit card controversies. I have googled the Chase Bank Monthly Minimum increase issue, and ACORN outrage does not show up at all! This is a very troubling sign.

While the media plays up the mortgage crisis, there may be millions of americans slowly losing their homes because of Chase Bank and unfair credit card practices and the freezing of home equity lines at drastically undervalued prices. My grave concern is that the people being affected are not ACORN people, and that may be why Chase Bank is going full steam ahead to potentially ruin well over a million american's and their families lives, you know, the "bitter americans" that Barack Obama spoke of during the 2008 democratic race.

I find it odd that a person putting up MORE collateral than the amount of the loan they are requesting will still be denied the loan unless they have substantial income! It appears to me that collateral loans are a profile that doesn't fit the typical ACORN member, therefore there are NO COLLATERAL LOAN PROGRAMS at this point in time? I don't know for sure if collateral backed loans fit ACORN members, but I bet collateral backed loans fit many Hillary Clinton supporters snugly.

To put this in perspective, Chase Bank is going to EXTRACT FROM these over one million americans who are never late on THEIR payments MORE MONEY PER MONTH than GEORGE BUSH and Barack Obama gave these same americans in stimulus and rebate checks!

Read about what may be happening to fellow PUMA's all over the country... Consumer Affairs has over 1,000 Chase Bank Complaints from just the past 6 months.

If I were to guess, I would bet that MOST of the people writing Chase Bank complaint letters to Consumer Affairs, DID NOT VOTE for Barack Obama, and that is why they are being left unprotected by our "team of rivals". Consumer Affairs has over 1,000 Chase Bank Complaints from just the past 6 months.

My Desperate Plea to all Bloggers, PLEASE do not do what this blogger did.

The above article is not a puma article. This is just advice in general for all bloggers. PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE, do not ask "where's the anger?", yet not allow any way for readers to leave a comment!  Most of you know already know this. I just find this type of title completely contradictory.

Thankfully, this writer at least left a contact email address. Asking "where is the anger" while not allowing people to respond, is pretty much a self fulfilling prophecy and an unintentionally preposterous supposition.

I wonder if the AP will ever allow comments in response to articles written by their own reporters. 

I probably should not have made the title so dramatic sounding as many people probably won't appreciate the frustration it brings out in me when I see a source that makes a plea but doesn't allow public interaction.

PROJECT WONDERFUL, a creative way to advertise on other PUMA blogs while keeping the income within the PUMA community.

I THINK THIS IS REALLY A BIG DEAL!

Edit Update: I just took out an ad on the very website where I learned about PROJECT WONDERFUL. It is costing me five cents a day for the ad with a maximum bid amount that I have allocated so far of 5 cents a day, 3.50 cents total, or 10 weeks worth of ad time. The site I am advertising on is not a PUMA BLOG but I wanted to advertise where I found out about Project Wonderful first.  Plus it matches the content of my Daily-Protest blog nicely. I also don't know if any PUMA Blogs offer ad space via Project Wonderful.

I would just like to add that I stumbled upon Project Wonderful because I do daily research on several topics and just happened to notice this interesting way of advertising. I don't know the creators or owners of Project Wonderful, nor was I solicited in any way. 

...If someone outbids me I lose my ad spot and either rebid or just let it go. I had to register and then add funds to my Project Wonderful account via PAYPAL before I could start bidding. I started my Project Wonderful account with 11 dollars.

I think one can just be a "publisher" and accept ads from other sources without having to be an advertiser.  However, what goes around comes around. If PUMA blogs decide to sign up, then it becomes a way to circulate advertising dollars within the PUMA community. If anybody has any concerns please leave a comment. So far I think Project Wonderful is a great idea based on what I know about it.

-------------------------------

(Below is the original article when I had just learned of Project Wonderful)

I may have stumbled upon a method of internet advertising that may give the blog owner control over ad content while letting the advertiser know exactly where their ad will appear on the blog or website.

An example of what can happen when the blog owner's approval for an advertisement is not necessary would be the placement of an advertisement promoting a politician next to an article voicing displeasure over that same politicians policy.

Even when some blogs offer ad space for sale, the ad does not necessarily end up where the advertiser wants it.  Apparently "targeted ads" still only get randomly placed within the desired website, but not specifically where the advertiser wants the ad to appear, at least that is how it work last summer when I inquired.

In my opinion, the ideal scenario for both blog owner and advertiser alike is to have an open space available on the blog, and anybody can bid on that space. Highest bidder gets the space until they are outbid. The bidder controls the highest they will bid, and the total amount they are willing to pay for the life of the ad. 

If the blog owner disapproves of the ad, I presume there is a mechanism to discontinue the ad, even if it means discontinuing the auction entirely.  In essence, both sides get exactly what they require before consummating the deal.

Enter Project Wonderful. It appears Project Wonderful meets my criteria for the kind of advertising that allows the blog owner control over the content of advertisements on their website, and the advertiser the exact placement of the ad.  The wildcard to this scenario is that the advertiser can be "outbid" for the space and then either lose the spot or have to rebid a higher amount to retain the spot. 

I don't mind the bidding aspect because that should mean the ad eventually reaches its level of "worth", but before reaching that level of worth, the ad space may just prove an excellent value to those who advertise there first.

I just discovered Project Wonderful and have not had a chance to try it out yet, but I LOVE the concept and wanted to share it with any PUMA blog Owner that wants more control over the content of advertisement that appears on their blog.

Part of the way those in power stay in power is to only frequent and publicize each others websites. Project Wonderful might be a way to support other PUMA blogs with advertising dollars while helping your own blog grow as well. The starting auction prices appear to be so low that we can probably all afford to advertise on at least one other PUMA blog.

To PUMA Bloggers, please comment here if you think your new blog articles take longer than 30 minutes to update on Daily PUMA.

Daily PUMA does not directly control when your articles update. Sometimes DailyPUMA can delete and then re add a blog and the blog will update, but it is not a sure thing that that will work.

There are a few blogs that don't seem to update as quickly as other blogs. Maybe we can figure out if it is the same blog service that is having the delay by getting a tally on which blogs don't update relatively quickly.

If you feel your blog is not updating quickly enough on DailyPUMA, please leave a comment along with the name of your blog and how long you think it takes for the updating to actually occur.

Thanks!

Google News Search Option, just who is "newsworthy" to be listed, and who is the decider?

I am trying to figure out how Google knows the difference between a news article, and a newscraping article. In general, many blogs are of the newscraping variety.

Newscraping means the blog writer reads an already existing news story, or watches a program on television, and then writes about it. This would be considered "newscraping". The blogger didn't create the news story, instead they re-interpreted an existing story from their own viewpoint.

But wait a minute. What if you or I actually do come up with a news story? What if we are the first to report something of note? Will Google News know to include the blog on their Google News search service? I suggest fellow PUMA bloggers do some google research. Write a story about something that you personally witnessed, and then use search words from your article and search Google "news" to see if your story appears.

Daily PUMA wrote an article about the KFI Tax Protest and the content was based on what was being said on a radio program. In many respects this is no different than a press conference in which a reporter never gets to ask a question but uses the responses from other reporters questions to write their own story.

Even though Daily PUMA reported key facts from the radio show that were NOT reported by anybody else anywhere on the internet, the Daily PUMA article DID NOT appear on Google News Search.

Example. KNBC reported that hundreds showed up to the KFI Tax Protest Rally in Fullerton, California. Based on estimates from police officer estimates, it is believed that as many as 15,000 people actually showed up. Daily PUMA was reporting on how inaccurate the television news station was in reporting the attendance, this IS a news story worthy of being on Google News.

Most subscribers to google's key word service are actually subscribing to google news, which appears to mean that our blogs may never be worthy of inclusion to the millions of internet users who use google key word search.

Daily PUMA releases its own PUMA STIMULUS PACKAGE and Daily PUMA readers are the beneficiaries!

After watching Congress effortlessly add money to the United States economy, Daily PUMA wondered if extra width could be added to the two, far right PUMA Blog columns. After playing with column width numbers, Daily PUMA is pleased to announce its very own PUMA STIMULUS PACKAGE! If you look to the right you will notice BOTH PUMA COLUMNS ARE NOW WIDER!

DailyPUMA hasn't quite mastered the art of creating column width out of non-existent space with the same ease that congress creates wealth out of thin air. It appears that when the right two PUMA columns were widened, the center, main column shrank by an equal amount.

In an effort to appease all points of view, the left column of the blog, the non PUMA blog column, was also widened just a tad, resulting in even more shrinkage (aka tax cut) of the center column.

For some reason, DailyPUMA can't seem to master the concept of increasing all the columns that demand increases while also maintaining the original size of the center column.

John Ziegler's Documentary, "Media Malpractice", Good News, Bad News?

I have mixed feelings about John Ziegler's documentary "Media Malpractice", primarily because it has not been released yet and I don't know what is in it.

(Edit update - Hey, RumpRoast gave my opening line an award. Probably deserved too. lol, I still haven't seen the video as of Oct. 19th, 2009, but I do want to.)

Here are my hopes about Media Malpractice. Mr. Ziegler was really able to demonstrate how the media and the democratic party worked against Hillary Clinton to give the race to Barack Obama, and that Hillary Clinton will end up looking like the real winner who was literally robbed of the democratic nomination by the united but unethical actions from several different, but connected sources.

Here are my concerns. The film is going to focus more on Sarah Palin and less on Hillary Clinton. My second concern is that Mr. Ziegler's use of PUMA blogs for critical information may have been underutilized or under acknowledged. For now, the above is speculation, it will be interesting to see what made it into Mr. Ziegler's final cut and if any PUMAs or PUMA blogs get credited.

However, the strange thing is it may not matter whether PUMA's are credited or not in Mr. Ziegler's documentary. If PUMA's are credited, that could feel very validating and somewhat empowering. If PUMA's are not credited, yet Mr. Ziegler comes up with his own examples of media bias that favored Barack Obama over all others, this will further validate PUMA talking points about the 2008 primaries and beyond.

I think the media, led by Keith Olbermann, definitely excreted a form of georacism against the state of Alaska and Sarah Palin. Part of the reason this georacism was accepted was because Alaska is comprised of primarily white people. According to the media, white peopl can't be the victim of georacism, especially when it is the media slinging the disparaging remarks, Keith Olbermann, take a bow.

The cynical side in me thinks the doc will be more about Sarah Palin because Palin is more likely a shooting star still rising and therefore there is more to gain by sucking up to the future rather than setting the past straight. I do hope I'm wrong.

Supreme Court Will NOT Review Barack Obama's citizenship. Are background checks for becoming president less restrictive than a blue collar job?

In striking down a review of Barack Obama's citizenship, has the supreme court basically stated that the background check criteria for becoming president is lower than applying for and getting a blue collar job?

You walk into a Bar, See a Big Screen TV, and...on the big screen TV is DailyPUMA! It's a PUMA social meeting. But rather than compete with the music and clusters of different discussions going on at the same time, a moderator with a microphone asks people to choose a headline on Daily PUMA. The moderator clicks on the headline, and reads the article out loud to the PUMA's who are gathered.

Far Fetched? Ahead of it's time? Think about it. Think about how hard it is too conduct political meetings in public settings as the meeting quickly disengages into 8 different discussions among 20 people. Now think about how easy it would be too conduct a meeting using the DailyPUMA as your focus point.

(Updated Friday, July 7, 2017, 2:15pm) Ok, so it was a dumb idea.)

The Philosophy of Not Moderating Blog Comments (Short Version)

Not moderating comments fosters more interaction. As proof, I accidentally left my Daily PUMA blog setting on the do not show until moderator approves setting, and only allow registered bloggers to post comments. I got six responses (half were my answers), and then the comments dried up. After I changed the moderator setting to let anybody reply without moderator approval, even Barack Obama, I noticed a new surge in comments to the same topic.

The Philosophy of Not Moderating Blog Comments...

I can only go by me experience, but I think I have only deleted one comment out the hundred or two that have been posted to my various blog articles. Unless you are being spammed by really awful stuff, consider letting your readers comments go unmoderated and reviewing them as needed.

I think not moderating comments and letting anyone reply fosters more interaction. As proof, I accidentally left my blog setting to DailyPUMA.com on the do not show until moderator approves setting. I got six responses (half were my answers), and then the comments dried up. I then realized the comments default was automatically set to moderator approval and registered users only. After I changed the moderator setting to let anybody reply, even Barack Obama, I noticed a new surge in comments to the same topic.

I think people like to read back what they just wrote after they post it, moderating comments eliminates that small joy on some blogging platforms. Now if the person doesn't know that their response is being held, until after they hit the reply button, odds are they never responded in the first place if prior comments haven't been already moderated. People tend to reply when they see that others have already replied. If you have your reasons for moderating comments before they appear, please share them here so the entire PUMA community can learn.

Kudos to all you PUMA bloggers who didn't give up because of November 4. I plan on keeping this blog overwhelmingly PUMA, but I might slip in a couple of non PUMA blogs if I think they are a benefit to all PUMA's, such as the consumerist blog. If you have a PUMA website or forum, the DailyPUMA blog can apparently track blogs only, sorry. In the meantime, keep Roaring the Good Roar. (I'll soon add a forum links section).

I just thought I would do an update to this article 5 plus years later. I was a bit disappointed by the lesbian/ultra pro woman blogging portion of Hillary Clinton's supporters. I discovered after the fact that they were a small but close knit group that frequently gossiped with each other and who mistrusted virtually any male blogger who supported Hillary Clinton.

The few male bloggers who support Hillary Clinton are for the most part ignored by the lesbian ultra pro female blogger, or viscously ripped apart both in public and in private.

I have not counted the exact number but there were at least 5 or 6 bloggers of the type I describe above who just decided they didn't like me. It took me a while to realize that there were some Hillary Clinton bloggers who were haters. 

For the most part I believe that that Hillary Clinton supporters are the nicest people on the planet, so nice they actually don't have time to blog or even be bothered to post, they live their lives, help their family, neighbors and friends, and they like Hillary Clinton.

I hope that will be enough to get Hillary Clinton elected president in 2016. Hillary Clinton for president in 2016 certainly will not happen because of lesbian ultra pro woman's rights Hillary Clinton blogging supporters, it will happen in spite of them, if it happens.
