Palin Says Obama Should Delay ‘Coronation’

ABC News’ Imtiyaz Delawala reports: Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin criticized Sen. Barack Obama as "getting a little bit ahead of himself" in expecting a win on Election Day, saying the Democratic presidential nominee should delay the "coronation" until after voters have cast their ballots.

At rallies in Tampa and Kissimmee, Fla., Palin said Obama was already preparing for post-election plans, citing an inaccurate report Saturday in the New York Times that Obama’s inaugural address had already been written. Former President Clinton chief of staff John Podesta is leading transition preparation efforts for the Obama campaign, and had written a generic inaugural address for a book earlier this year — when he still supported Sen. Hillary Clinton for the Democratic nomination.

"And you know that elections — they’re not decided until the votes are counted. But our opponent, he sure seems, once again to be getting out a little bit ahead of himself," Palin said at the Tampa rally. "John McCain and I, we’re out here asking for your vote so we can get to work for you, and a lot of folks are still undecided. And you know, Barack Obama and I, we both have spent quite some time on the basketball court. But where I come from, you have to win the game before you start cutting down the nets."

Palin cited other instances — such as Obama’s use of a faux presidential seal for a day this summer, and his attempt to speak at Germany’s Brandenburg Gate — as signs of Obama’s presumptuousness leading up to Election Day.

"Remember the presidential seal that he made for himself a few months back? Or his plans to speak at the Brandenburg Gate until the German government had to remind him, ah, nah, that’s an honor reserved for heads of state?" Palin asked the crowd. "Or the stadium that he’s already rented out for the victory party that he has planned."

In fact, Obama has not rented out a stadium for Election Night — he has reserved a green space known as Hutchinson Field in Chicago’s historic Grant Park.

"You kind of get the feeling that the Obama campaign thinks this whole election process is just a formality," Palin continued. "And I know that judging by media coverage, it does seem that the coronation is already set. But as for John McCain and me, we don’t take any vote for granted, and we are not assuming that we have your vote, we are respectfully asking for it."

Palin also defended herself on what she called "the whole clothes thing," saying that the $150,000 in clothes purchased for her and her family by the Republican National Committee were not her property, and that she’s back to wearing her own clothes from Alaska.

"It is so nice to be back here in the Sunshine State and quite warm which I love, and grabbed a jacket this morning to put on not realizing how warm it would be. My own jacket," Palin said, emphasizing the word own, which drew laughs from the crowd.

She was prompted to address the clothing issue by an introduction by Elisabeth Hasselbeck, in which The View co-host called the questions on Palin’s wardrobe "deliberately sexist," and instead turning the focus from her clothes to the flag pin Palin wears.

"As you can see, Sarah Palin sure is a woman who knows how to dress," Hasselbeck told the crowd. "I’m actually personally most impressed by her accessories, you know, like the flag pin that she wears in honor, she wears it in honor of her son and our military men and women fighting abroad. And they fight for our very right to be here today, in her support."

"This whole thing with the wardrobe you know I have tried to just ignore it because it is so ridiculous, but I am glad now that Elisabeth brought it up cause it gives me an opportunity without the filter of the media to get to tell you the whole clothes thing," Palin responded at the top of her Tampa remarks. "Those clothes they are not my property, just like the lighting and the staging and everything else that the RNC purchased. I am not taking them with me, I’m back to wearing my own clothes from my favorite consignment shop in Anchorage, Alaska."

Palin then went on to describe some of the accessories she was wearing, including a pair of earrings from her mother-in-law, her $35 wedding ring, and her Blue Star mother pin.

"And my wedding ring, it’s in Todd’s pocket cause it hurts sometimes when I shake hands and it gets squished, a $35 wedding ring from Hawaii that I bought myself, and ’cause I always thought with my ring it’s not what it’s made of, it’s what it represents and 20 years later happy to wear it," Palin said.

Can that woman not open her mouth once without lying or smearing? No wonder decent Republicans are leaving the party in disgust.

Maybe someone should check and see if Palin has booked a flight home to Alaska yet. But then, she does plan on getting a job at Fox, maybe she’ll hang around for O’Reilly to chase her around his desk.

She should delay her coronation too.
The descriptions of her jewelry are silly. (Palinesque)

McCain and Palin have Obama measureing drapes at the white house, writing his inaugural speech and setting up a coronation, maybe someone should tell them that he’s actually in Colorado speaking before 100,000 people.
But then, they haven’t seen that many people at all their rallies combined.

So tell me what was the smear exactly ????? Because I sure as heck missed it . She is speaking the truth It is a little arrogant to forget that the American people have voted him in as President yet ,and I for one hope they don’t .but maybe he is just assuming he has it won afterall it was his campaign who gave Acorn 832,000 and of coarse as we all know Acorn is under federal investigation for their practices .Or maybe he is assuming he will win because he has the mainstream media pulling for him (cnn ,msnbc,cbs who constantly go on the attack of the McCain/Palin ticket yet refuse time and time again to report anything negative of the Obama Campaign…
I find it funny that so much has been made of the amount that was spent on clothes which will be donated to charitybut nothing was said when Obama spent 140,000 dollars on Greek columns for the dnc convention .Wonder if those were donated ????? or the fact that Obama spent 105 million dollars between October 1-15 thats 105 million dollars spent in 15 days and you want to trust Mr.Obama the big spender with the economy ?????????

McCain/Palin harp on Obama having celebrity, that didn’t hurt Reagan or Schwarzenegger.
Maybe they’re confusing celebrity with the notoriety they have, McCain’s ill tempered tantrums and Palin thievery.

Tammy, Obama didn’t wear the columns or try and put them in his closet nor did he include his family in the graft. It would be one thing if this was the first time Palin was caught with her hand in the till, but it isn’t.

It would be helpful if she actually read the news before making such stupid claims. Of course, what she doesn’t want to hear is about 100k in Denver, 45k in Albuquerque, 100k in St Louis, 75k in Kansas City. Her advisors think she might get depressed. Hundreds of thousands of good reasons for that.

When do you know that Sarah Palin is lying?
When she opens her mouth and starts talking.
The number of lies and debunked rumors in that little speech of hers just proves it. I guess Sarah cares more about mindless gossip and spiteful rhetoric than actual facts. No wonder her ticket is plummeting in the polls.

It is amusing to hear a Republican speak in terms like “coronation.” The Republicans have always been of the noble class – and there was nothing wrong with this – but today’s GOP forgets the Latin Noblesse Oblige – the obligation of the nobles. It is OK to claim nobility – but it requires that one act nobly. McCain has failed to act nobly. ……………

Do you people not have minds of your own???? You have all let the Obama Media make your minds up for you . This is still America we have rights and can think for ourselves .
You want to talk about smears lets talk about how after Obama gave Joe the answer of spread the wealth and they realized that was a gaffe and could hurt Obama they Smear Joe to take the focus away from the answer of spread the wealth that Obama gave. Or maybe we can look at the Reporter at wftv who asked Joe Biden serious legitimate questions the Obama campign immediately canceled further interviews and started talking and questioning the ability of the reporter . Thats a scarey glimpse into the future if Obama is elected the media will not have the right to report and we as Americans will not have the right to question for fear of retalliation .

The Anchorage Daily News endorsed Obama. She has soiled her own nest.

Posted by: helloworld | October 26, 2008, 6:48 pm 6:48 pm

the Democrats had a more interresting primary than the Republicans did this year. That is why there are more registered Democrats than Republicans this year. Also, ACORN fraudulently acquired voter registration cards as well to vote for Sen. Obama in the Democratic primary, too, that is why there are so many more registered Democrats than Independents and Republicans. The polls “weigh” the results they get from their random calls against the voter registrations they know as a “fact” from the office of the Secretary of State. that is why the polls show such a significant Obama lead. He is definitely behind, and he definitely won’t win on 11/4, but if he does, it will be as a result of voter fraud committed by ACORN and other Obama allies like the United Trinity Church of Christ, and it will be our patriotic duty as Americans to ensure that the fraudulently acquired Office of the President goes down in history as a colossal, nationally-damaging failure of monumental proportions, and to make sure that if it is an Obama administration, he becomes the worst President in the history of the United States of America, ever.

Quite a pair, aren’t they??? Poor little Sarah having to buy her clothes from her favorite consignment shop in Anchorage!! The Palins combined worth is over one million dollars–they live in a $552,000 lakefront house, 2 vacation retreats, a float plane, snow machines!!! I really feel sorry for her!!! I’m sure the Republican campaign had to dress her to keep up with Cindy McCain’s $300,000 outfits! Dressing Sarah was one thing—but dressing her husband and children is another–also, read where even the father of her daughters baby got outfitted!!! And, don’t forget the makeup!! Ridiculous!!! It will be a sorry, sad day for America if McCain/Palin win this election!! An old man (and I am 67) who changes his thinking from day to day–even hour to hour-lieng thru his teeth, acting erratic, running the dirtiest campaign ever and as for Sarah Palin, she is so out of her league-just a joke!!

Hey Jr get your facts straight Palin didnt try to put those in her closet they were bought for her to use and then donate to charity …..yes the clothes were used by Palin on the trail day in day out but lets see those columns were used one time 140,000 for one time use seems a waste of money there but maybe Obama donated the greek columns to a movie set .

I know, right. Barack Obama keeps on saying, “The Chicago Tribune is conservative and it supports my plan” and “The Chicago Tribune isn’t exactly friendly to Democrats yet it supports my plan” just to turn around and get an endorsement from The Chicago Tribune. Look guys, there is no such thing as a “conservative” newspaper, and there is no such thing as a “not friendly to Democrats” mainstream-media outlet. It’s all in the tank for Barack Obama, and if there was a fair-and-balanced one, Sen. Obama and his $600M campaign can’t find it.

This story has been debunked, at the very least, there should have been a footnote stating that fact–ofcourse, unless the intent of this article in the first place is to misinform.

Obama seems to have a Teflon quality because the American public is hesitant to criticize an African American. If Obama were white, he would have been crucified a long time ago.
All Obama says in his speech is empty hyperbole. And like a Gumby without integrity, he bends his words to fit what the public wants to hear, prostituting his words for a vote.
We know nothing about Obama, the only thing we know is that it is politically correct to vote for a black man and not ask questions. This need to vote for someone because of their race is an insidious and destructive form of discrimination.
But what the populous fails to consider is Obama’s past actions and associations which clearly demonstrate a hatred for this country and horrendous bad judgment. And Instead of addressing the accusations of associating with terrorist and mob members, Obama reacts like a terrorist by threatening all who dare to criticize or challenge him.
I have never given credence to the idea of an Anti-Christ, until now.

If we have an all democratic government, we may get much more than what we may think. Joe Biden said Obama will be tested for sure, and if the terrorist will destroy a few big oil tankers in the open sea, that will destroy all our economy, we would also go into big depression and a lot of upset.All of Obama’s background and all his past assosiations are American haters, muslim redicals, Marxist, black supremists. We may get an all democratic, unamerican, Marxist, black supremist governmet,with more problems for the American people.Joe Biden said, we are not going to like what is ahead, and he assured us, of all this.

Obama seems a bit over-confident…but then he does have unrighteous wind of the liberal mainstream media behind his back.
By the way, the Anchorage Daily News is owned by McClatchey (a company out of California)and that is the ONLY reason it endorsed Obama and endorsed Kerry in 2004. Sarah Palin has an 80% approval rating from the people of Alaska. One Alaskan said the Anchorage Daily Newsrag is only good for wrapping their fish….
I would appreciate if the liberal media would keep their biased opinions to themselves,quit trying to sway the voters to the Left, and let the people of America decide the next President of the US!
McCain/Palin….the choice for our children and grandchildren!!

Obama tells his people to not get cocky while McCain guarantees victory. Meanwhile, Palin suggests that Obama is getting ahead of himself. Pleaaaase. This was supposed to be Palin unplugged. Unplugged from reality is more like it.
But whatever… More coverage of Palin means less spotlight on McCain. And that’s not what McCain needs. Palin’s negatives are higher than her positives. So she’s stuck in a permanent version of Opposite Day. Whatever she says, independents — who are the really the only ones who matter at this point — are twice as likely to think the opposite.

Americans deserve more than mere survival and if corporations have their way, this is all we’ll get. Government is there to represent the people, not to abandon us to the forces of corporate authority and this is the reason I will not buy into GOP “market-knows-best” ideology. If the GOP really believed in a free market, they wouldn’t work so hard to create union-hostile legislation but instead would accept unions as a naturally-occurring element of free market economics.

One should not forget that if Obama had applied for a job with the FBI, the Secret Service, the CIA, or any police agency that he would be denied a job because of his ties with a domestic terrorist named William Ayers. Obama’s name would also be added to the terrorist watch lists of the FBI, CIA and Secret Service. He wouldn’t pass his background check to become a police officer, but yet he can run for President? We just got rid of a crook of a mayor in Detroit, looks like another one is heading to Washington.

It sickens me to read that someone believes the vote would be given to Obama because he is of another race. He is an American. Maybe we should be worried because McCain is too pale and we don’t know what Palin is because of all the makeup. Intelligence and confidence shine through Obama’s skin and that is what scares the McCainites and Palinites.

I love it when Republicans take the Joe Biden comment totally out of context for their own use. If you will take the time to listen to the entire commentary, you will notice that Joe Biden was making a point that history shows that all newly-elected presidents are “tested” in their first year…and that Obama has a “spine of steel”, so he will pass the test with flying colors. Biden’s comment was NOT made to insinuate that there will be some kind of attack on the US if Obama is elected. If we are to believe that McCain was referring to “American workers” when he said, “The fundamentals of the economy are strong!”, then why can’t Biden’s comments be taken for what they really divulge? I will be SO glad when Election Day is done and over with – we’ll have Obama/Biden in the White House in January, and a whole host of new Democrats in the House and Senate!!!

You people must be retarded if you think that what happened with ACORN is going to effect the election. ACORN is required by law to turn in every single votor regitration card, whether it is valid or not, which is a regulation that was put in to place because of a scandle decades ago where Republicans threw out voter registration cards of Democrats.
Are you actually dumb enough that because a voter registration card was turned in from “Mickey Mouse” that “Mickey Mouse” is actually going to cast a vote? Every state has to verify that registration information is valid before they can allow that person to vote. More importantly, that said person has to present valid ID when they go to the voter booth. People working for ACORN sent in bogus registrations to make a buck. None of those will turn into votes.
Don’t be stupid America.
But then again, there were enough Americans that were stupid enough to vote George W. into office- TWICE.
Now that’s scary.

That’s interesting that Palin would claim Obama put off a “coronation.” Just today Senator John McCain said: “I guarantee a victory on election day.” So it’s obviously the McCain camp that is out in front of themselves.
I read this great quote about Palin today:
“Apart from my affection for her as Little Miss Mooseslayer, I like her for bringing into the open the Republican base – the gun freaks, the abortion absolutists, the anti-tax dervishes, the Christians waiting for the Rapture, the rednecks hollering for Obama’s head. The whole I’m-ignorant-and-proud-of-it crowd, which had previously remained half-hidden on the fringes. It has been great fun to see the base howling in public. “

I am saddened as I read these comments. It shows how polarized our country has become.
For those that say we have a liberal-biased media: where do you get your information? The candidates? The internet? If you feel all media outlets in the US are left biased, look outside at the BBC or other foreign coverage. If you only watch Fox news – then I am sorry for you. Fox is not fair and balanced. As for the “reporter” who “interviewed” Joe Biden, it was totally unprofessional. She didn’t ask questions so much as made statements. If you watch the interaction, she doesn’t even seem to hear Senator Biden’s response.
And I for one, will take “socialism” over the fascist government we’ve had for the past 8 years.

The USA has the 4th largest discrepancy in wealth distribution in the world. The Republicon coalition of Fascist jinGOPigs and the wealthy are the only reason why the Republicon Party even exists. 90% of those that vote Republicon vote against their own best interests, and as rabid Fascist jinGOPigs, they remain too stupid to realize this. Even today, Reagan/Bush/McCain economics has diminsihed the USA to a 3rd world country, while the Fascist jinGOPigs continue to vote for more of the same.

Somebody duct tape her mouth shut before Nov 4th. I can’t believe the Republicans are actually considering Palin 2012. Someone needs to have a word with them about keeping out the crazies. However, on a lighter note, Palin 2012 would pretty much guarantee Obama four more years.

Posted by: lisa | October 26, 2008, 7:56 pm 7:56 pm

The only one who is using the term coronation is Palin. She has an extreme case of over entitlement but the carriage is going to turn back into a giant pumpkin on November 5. The public should have an entitlement to some sense in her remarks, but so far it is recycled lines and lines lifted as lyrics from the song books of Karl Rove, Richard Nixon, George W Bush and Joe McCarthy. And Obama has not written his inaugural address, although I think he’s capable of writing one by himself.

Posted by: bhciapol | October 26, 2008, 7:57 pm 7:57 pm

Anyone that believes that ACORN committed crimes is mistaken. Furthermore, Barack Obama gave money to an affiliate of ACORN, not ACORN.
Bill Ayers is a pretty respected man in Chicago. The guy committed some pretty despicable acts in the 60s, but because Barack Obama knows the guy now it makes everything Bill has done his problem? That is sick. If you have a real problem with Bill Ayers, take it up with Bill Ayers. Remember, he’s a terrorist. I guess every student he taught is a terrorist too.

I find it interesting that those who support McCain and Palin do so not by explaining WHY their candidates are better but by knocking Obama and Biden.
And it will be a nice change to have this country move more towards the middle than remain in the muck of the far right wing.
Remember to ask yourself: are you and your country better off now than you were 8 years ago? If so, by all means, vote to continue. If not, I would suggest a change. And McCain/Palin do not offer a change.

Posted by: Mark | October 26, 2008, 8:02 pm 8:02 pm

Something to about.
By Obama’s own count there are 12 million illegal aliens in the U.S. and he wants them all getting government benefits.
Obama has stated he also wants to give each and everyone of them amnesty and citizenship.
As for them learning English, he has stated he thinks American kids, your kids, should learn Spanish.
There is no doubt this man is the most radical leftist ever nominated by the Democratic party.
We have already exposed Obama’s shocking plan to give illegals driver’s licenses – even though everyone knows the 9/11 plot began with 13 of the 19 terrorists getting driver’s licenses.
What next?

Much is made of McCain’s age. Has anyone brought up the fact
that Obama smokes and both of his parents died at an early age. Plus
Biden has had two brain aneurysms which could have killed him. If they
both died while in office that would leave Nancy Pelosi as president. I

I love the supposed “lies” pointed out by Obama’s supporter. The first (regarding the inaugural address) was pointed out by none other than the New York Times. As for the stadium, she was actually doing Obama a favor. In fact, the little “green space” noted above is where Lollapalooza was held and will cost upwards of $3 million to hold. Mayor Daley had actually suggested renting out the United Center because it would be a cheaper alternative — and less burden on the city of Chicago police force — but Obama turned it down. Glad he’ll be the guy spending our money — or giving it to others who don’t pay taxes — over these next 4 years.

Right wingers get real. Stop the HATE and use your brain to think logically.
1. Do you really think someone would be allowed to run for President if they weren’t an American citizen?
2. I use to have a great deal of respect for McCain, but even I can’t fix up the erratic and out of touch behaviour he has shown, not to mention the hypocrisy.
2. He keeps repeating he’s been tested. But can anyone tell me HOW he’s been tested? Does being a POW make you ready to be president? Does sitting in a plane follwoing orders make you ready to be president? If so, there are thousands of veterans out there who should be running.
3. He claims he has no mental issues from being a POW. I challenge everyone to speak to a veteran who’s been a POW or experienced combat to say they have no mental issues. Anyone who works in a VA Hospital (which I do)can tell you he’s feeding everyone a bunch of baloney.
4. ‘m tired of the talk that the media will not talk about Ayers or Wright. How about the media not takling about domestic Watergate terroist G. Gordon Liddy. Yes, he went to jail, but he has never repented anything he’s done. He advocated shooting Federal agents and bombings. He held a fundraiser for McCain in 1998 and they are friends. Why McCain not called a terroist. McCain has associations with mob gamblers and he’s a big gambler. Does the religious right not have a problem with that? He’s associaed with Falwell and another religious way-out ther guy whose name I can’t remember. Yet, is all this covered by the MSM? McCain has even hired advisors who worked with Saddam Hussein and the robocall comapnie who spwed all the filth about him in 2000.
5. How many outright lying robocalls have you recieved from Obama?
6. Has anyone ever thought that the reason Obama refused federal funds is because of the past history of the Republican party for rigging voting and dirty politics that have netted the current joke we have a President x 2. He needed to prepared for exactly what is happening with the robocalls.
7. McCain keeps talking about tax cuts for companies. Has that stopped them from taking jobs out of the country? I can’t call my credit card card company without talking to someone in India. That premise hasn’t worked so well for us thus far. And we give them more without tax cuts to help them take more jobs out of the US to slave labor countries.
8. Then you has Palin who can lie with a straight face while reading what the commission report stated. She was cleared of all ETHICAL and legal impropriorities. Maybe she needs a couple of more new glasses. Who in good conscious could vote for her?
8. Tell me the last President who actually had experience. I don’t know about anybody else, but I would take the way Obama has organized his campaign and surrounded himself with outstanding personnel over the chaos of the McCain campaign.
9. Of course, Republicans who are voting for Obama are not real Republicans. Maybe not, but I consider them real Americans who believe in “putting country first”.

Posted by: DMR | October 26, 2008, 8:14 pm 8:14 pm

Would you want our First Lady to have such a track record?
In her senior thesis at Princeton, Michele Obama, the wife of Barack Obama
stated that America was a nation founded on ‘crime and hatred’.
Moreover, she stated that whites in America were ‘ineradicably racist’. The
1985 thesis, titled ‘Princeton-Educated Blacks and the Black Community’ was
written under her maiden name, Michelle LaVaughn Robinson.
Michelle Obama stated in her thesis that to ‘Whites at Princeton , it often
seems as if, to them, she will always be Black first…’ However, it was reported
by a fellow black classmate, ‘If those ‘Whites at Princeton ‘ really saw Michelle
as one who always would ‘be Black first,’ it seems that she gave them that
impression’.
Most alarming is Michele Obama’s use of the terms ‘separationist’ and
‘integrationist’ when describing the views of black people.
Mrs. Obama clearly identifies herself with a ‘separationist’ view of race.

Posted by: Mark | October 26, 2008, 8:28 pm 8:28 pm

Why do we care about the MOUTHPIECE and the $150,000? My only question regarding that whole thing is why were her kids entitled to new clothes? The $150,000 dollars is just a drop in the bucket in the big scheme of things and if they say that they will be donated then so be it.
In an earlier post I included these items
TrooperGate – ABUSE OF POWER
$300 MILLION dollar bridge to nowhere – THANKS, BUT NO THANKS BUT KEPT MONEY
$900 MILLION dollar bridge from Anchorage to Wasilla – BENEFITS LAND DEVELOPER FRIENDS OF HERS
$40 BILLION dollar pipeline – MANIPULATES BIDDING PROCESS
$41.2 BILLION DOLLARS – Palin / Alaska
$900 MILLION DOLLARS – Obama / Illinois
which to me says a lot more about her than the money for clothes. We’re talking about $41.2 BILLION DOLLARS.
Let’s break that down even a little more
Alaska has a population of 626,932 people. Do the math and per person equals $65,716.00
Illinois has a population of 12,419,293 people. We do the math and come up with $72.50 per person.

No her husband didn’t belong to a seperationist group (but then again neither did Palins husband)
But Michelles husband does have a very long list of shadey characters in his past Ayers Rezco and lets not forget Jermiah Wright who preached hatred towards America . And no I am not saying that because he launched his Politics in the living room of a dometic terrorist that Obama is a terrorist what I am saying is that what kind of character does that show ??? or that because he was friends and worked with a slumlord crook like Rezco that he himself is a crook but again what kind of judgement does that show ???? Although I do question Obamas faith in America for sitting in a church for 20 years while the preacher preached of hate torward America .You can not tell me Obama didn’t hear what the preacher was preaching for 20 years or is Obama deaf ????? maybe thats it as we haven’t seen full medical records on Obama . There is a pattern only when these things comes to light and could cause damage to Obamas ambition does he disassociate himself .That to me leaves alot to be said .

Let’s be real. There are still a large number of white Americans who will not vote for Obma because he’s Black and as per the News have admitted it.
That is today. So what do you think about the state of race relations in 1985?
If indeed what you say is true about Michelle’s “separationist” view, I think you may not have a good understanding. A separationist view would be what is held by some WHite Americans in that they would prefer to keep schools and anything else they could get away with, separated base on race. An “integrationist” view would be more in keeping with they view of most Black Americans that we are one integrated people living in nation built on the pursuit of happiness for all people regardless of race.

President with a Democratic Congress. But, this woman scares me more because of what she
stated in her Thesis.
Here is another passage that is uncomfortable and ominous in meaning:
‘There was no doubt in my mind that as a member of the black
community, I am obligated to this community and will utilize
all of my present and future resources to benefit the black
community first and foremost.’
What is Michelle Obama planning to do with her future resources if she’s first
lady that will elevate black over white in America ?
The following passage appears to be a call to arms for affirmative action
policies that could be the hallmark of an Obama administration.
‘Predominately white universities like Princeton are socially and academically
designed to cater to the needs of the white students comprising the bulk of
their enrollments.’

And once again, I learned nothing from her speech about the McCain/Palin platform. I was at the Obama rally last night in Albuquerque, and trust me, Obama did not say one word about moving into the White House. In fact, he said that we have to work hard the next 10 days, very, very hard. Furthermore, he talked about his policies and what he stands for; something McCain and Palin just can’t seem to do. To stand up there and talk about clothes and rings with a fluff ball from The View seems to be all that Palin can muster up.

Why should the President wait to act like the President? The Republicans have had plenty of time to act like respectable leaders. The Republicans have opted to say they will show us the goods when they get into office. President Obama has gotten up every day and acted like a President. I want a President that acts like a President even in the face of fools. We have seen Obama do just that. Thank you Mr. President Obama!

Instead of talking about Obama’s presidential transition team, why doesn’t Governor Palin talk about McCain presidential transition team chief William Timmons?

Irrespective of the fact that her statements are full of inaccuracies and inconsistencies, what Sarah Palin says is relevant only to those who have been fooled by her and the operatives who manage her. Most of us tuned out long ago when we first discovered she was not a competent candidate and her political and personal disposition was too inflexible to acquire the political competency necessary to assist John McCain.
I am reminded of something John Kerry said four years ago, something about “crooks and liars.” It seems that for some time now and in large part, the Republican Party has been literally and figuratively run by just that, “crooks and liars.” Which is not to say there are no “crooks and liars” in the Democratic Party, but the Republican Party seems to have amassed more than its share of “crooks and liars,” a lion’s share. And that share has grown steadily since 1964 when the civil rights laws began passing in greater number.
Now that is where we Americans have made our biggest mistake over the last 50 years or so; we simply did not notice that “crooks and liars” go where the pickings are good, and the pickings have always been good among folks who are frightened of and or hateful toward people outwardly unlike themselves.
Well, maybe it is about time for us “real Americans” to stand up for real American values. Maybe it is time to say to the “crooks and liars” that we want straight forward, honest, ethical representatives in our congress, judiciary, and presidency. And we want those kinds of people in those offices now, so you “crooks and liars” had better find someplace to go other than the Republican or Democratic parties. Maybe someplace else to go that is not America. What do you folks think?

“Donna, the separationist group her husband belonged to wanted to secede from the government of the US not blacks BUT the black liberation theology church that THE ONE sat in for 20 years wants separation from whites!!”
I ask you then:
What’s wrong with that?
How many groups in the United States to this day has that type of mentality?
Groups of all whites that do not want African Americans, Jews, Chinese and the list goes on and on. There is one World famous golf course located in Monterey, CA that was that way up until a few years ago or more and there are plenty of others located in the States.
What’s the difference?

Biden announced for the presidency early and wore custom suits to the debates. Obama has been running for President all his life and wearing custom suits. Does anyone think Michelle Obama doesn’t get professional makeup before her tv appearances?
Sarah was minding her own business doing a great job in Alaska till she got the job of VP candidate on short notice. So the GOP supplied a wardrobe — not even custom, just off the racks!
I hope she shows up next time wearing sweats and boots! But then they would criticize her for that.
The crazy hatred against this popular effective governor is ridiculous! It reminds me of the way Hillary was treated for years.
I hope they BOTH become President. Palin 08, Hillary 2012, HIllary/Sarah 2016!

silkwool if Palin is unbelieable, this must be more your style.
Her thesis provides a trove of Mrs. Obama’s thoughts and
world view seen through a race-based prism. This is a very
divisive view for a potential first lady that would do untold
damage to race relations in this country in a Barack Obama
administration.
Michelle Obama’s intellectually refined racism should give all
Americans pause for deep concern.
Now maybe she’s changed, but she sure sounds like someone with an axe to
grind with America . Will the press let Michelle get a free pass over her obviously
racist comment about American whites?

You are right. Clothes should not be an issue (in fact, McCain included in his campaign reform bill an item prohibiting the use of funds for clothing). However, the Republicans made it an issue when they criticized John Edwards for a $400 haircut. What most people are tired of is the hypocrisy of the Republican party.

Check out her house ” reports claim that the house was actually built by the Spenard Builders Supply that was hired for the $12.5 million Wasilla Sports Complex. Check out the use of the government’s plane that is used for prisoners.Check out the free and uninvited trips of her children and their friends.Check out the price of the clothes. (I cannot see the difference in her looks). Check out all these expenses at the broken backs of taxpayers, and Joe and Jane the Plumbers.
Believe me at least under Obama Joe will have a business of his own, making money. Under McCain /Palin he will have nothing, NADA,Non, to pay tax on. Palin and McCain will have flushed down everything deep into thei

I never see ABC News correct Obama’s false claims about McCain helath care plan. I have yet to see ABC news report that a New York Times report on Palin or McCain was erroneous, not matter how much it actually was.
You see, the New York Times said Obama wrote his voctory speech. Obama denied it and that’s the end of the story for ABC. This is a standard it does not apply for the Republican ticket.

He acts like he was the only POW
that was taken.

I agree with Sarah! I think Obama is, as we country folks say, “counting his chickens before they hatch”! The election hasn’t happened yet. A few people have voted but the majority won’t vote until Nov. 4th. There’s a silent majority in this country who haven’t taken part in any of the polls but will be voting on election day. Obama is not considering them. He’s only looking at the polls and getting way too confident and sure of himself. He just might be letting himself in for a awful shock on election night. He would be wise to have his writers write both an acceptance speech and a concession speech because he hasn’t won this election yet even though he might think so!

How can Palin be so naive. No wonder they kept her incommunicado for so long, but they should have kept her so till after the election is fully done with, instead of allowing her to keep on expressing her folly openly. As a Christian she should have learnt from the Holy Bible that “Even a fool is thought to be wise if he keeps quiet.” Surely, this woman would teach her children to wait until the exam day or somehow get the questions before they start preparing for the exam, because according to Palin wisdom it is foolish to prepare beforehand. But it seems her handlers have better ideas, so they have prepared for her a very extensive wardrobe for her coronation before the crowning day, even though all the recent polls appear to suggest Obama is likely to win. Quite understandably, Palin hates anything that may suggest that Obama could win, but she ought to think before she speaks, or else, just shut up as her handlers have suggested. To prepare for POSSIBLE realization and possible outcomes of your goal as a result of your efforts is what wise people do, and failure to prepare for the LIKELY realization of your goal is foolish. THAT IS THE BITTER LESSON THAT THE MILITARY INVASION OF IRAQ IS TEACHING US TODAY IN TERMS OF THE HUGE NUMBER OF LIVES THAT HAVE PERISHED AND THE ECONOMIC, SOCIAL AND FINANCIAL COSTS AND OTHER COSTS, DOMESTIC AND EXTERNAL. Furthermore, as a Christian, if indeed she is one, she ought to know that walking by faith as Obama is doing is the right way to live, and not walking by sight as she is preaching.

own brains to tell them anything, they listen to whoever they choose and believe it. Use your own brains not others of
your own kind. Like McCain and Palin.
Obama never ever said he had won. I went
to one of his rally’s on Saturday and he
tells us not to get excited that we still
have a lot of hard work ahead. So believe
all the lies you want to about Obama and
listen to your own kind Republicans
never learn anything or read and study
on your won. This is how I believe we

I see you all have not lost your fight :
GOOD! Because we have a lot to do. You! (the American people) are going to have to take back control of your elected government at every level, and set your government back on the right path of service to you, and the greater good of the World.
Barack Obama and the democrats are your best hope of doing that now. Tell your family, friends, and everyone you know to support them as best they can. Because the Bush McCain vote fraud, vote cheating, vote buying, vote manipulation machine is already hard at work to cheat you again. And we all know what a disaster that has been the past 8 years of Bush McCain.
Barack Obama and the democrats will need all the power you can give them at every level of government (Federal, State, County, and local City elected governments). Obama and the democrats will have an enormous mess to fix for the American people, and the rest of the World. A mess caused by the corrupt Bush McCain administration.
You see, starting back in 2000, and before 911, it was mostly the Republican governors, Republican legislatures, and county elected Republican officials that conspired with the corrupt Bush McCain administration to raise college, and university tuitions by the fastest, and highest rate increases in American history. Some state tuitions went up by as much as a WHOPPING! 30% in one year.
The reason the Bush McCain administration did this was to force struggling working class kids into the military to pay for the sudden jump in tuition. Which was forced on them by the corrupt Bush McCain administration, and their corrupt Republican Governors, and republican controlled state legislatures.
See, Bush McCain had plans to get us into all these immoral, foolish, criminal, and unnecessary wars from the start. So they could use these wars to seize power, and later to get reelected. But, for their evil plan to work they needed more volunteer soldiers struggling to pay for an education whose blood they could spill to help them seize more power. Remember Bush McCain’s “MISSION ACCOMPLISHED!” theatrics.
The exploitation, and lost lives of these finest Americans is despicable, disgusting, immoral, corrupt and criminal. And it makes me SICK, and ANGRY!
You will have to vote for Obama, and the democrats in overwhelming numbers to overcome the Bush McCain vote fraud machine. Vote early if you can. Then help your fellow Americans cast their votes now, and on through election day. Vote for Obama, and the democrats like your life, and the lives of your loved ones depends on it. Because it does. You will not survive 4 more years of “Let Them Eat Cake” Bush McCain, and their republican allies.
Just look at the mess we have now.
You can fix this mess with your votes for Obama, and the democrats. And REMEMBER, no matter which of us may stumble or fall, the rest of you must continue to surge forward for Barack Obama, and the democrats, and for your-selves most of all. The children, and the World are counting on us.
It’s in your hands now. And I know you will get it done.
God bless all of you.

Sammy,
Okay, I’m the first one to agree with you but how does that bear any relevance? Just to have been a POW is bad enough. I would not want anyone to have to go through that.
A very good friend of mine (we were the same age) had an older brother that fought in the Vietnam War. He did not come home alive. A plaque in the town that we lived in has his name with about twenty or so others from that town on it with an Eternal Flame.
My friend was NEVER EVER the same and he wasn’t there (VIETNAM)
I respect John McCain for what he did in the war albeit I still have some questions about it.
Really, what happened in that UGLY war has no bearing on whether he could be a good leader….My only question that I really have about his service IS WHY DID HE HAVE HIS MILITARY RECORDS SEALED?
If in those he’s hiding something then it could be of relevance but don’t we deserve to know those answers especially since he uses that war and the Cuban Missile Crisis as being “TESTED”

Jacksmith,
Thank you for that, I agree 150%.
We have got to get Obama/Biden in
the White House not just for ourselves
but for our children and their children.
The world deserves it and we must come
through for them.

You know who it is,
I was very young when the Vietnam war
was going on. But when I grew up and
studied about it. I was so saddened
that the American people treated them
so badly, I used to tell my family if
I had been older I would have been there
and showed them how much I appreciated them. War is terrible.
I appreciate McCain’s service but I don’t think it should have bearing on
his leading this country. I don’t
appreciate him lying about things that
happened to him, why doesn’t he tell the
truth. I think he owes it to us to see
his record. What is he hiding??

Jules you don’t even know who Elizabeth Hasselback is! She’s not a game show runner up! She’s one of the hosts of ABC’s morning talk show The View with Barbara Walters and Whoopi Goldberg and Joy ? (I can’t remember Joy’s last name). Whoopi and Joy are democrats and they give their opinion often enough on the show. Elizabeth is the lone republican. She has just as much right to speak and give her opinion as Whoopi and Joy do! If you don’t want to hear her opinions then don’t watch the show! I personally agree with her and I like to hear her opinions!

Obviously Joe Biden needs to lay off the Botox so he can think better. Anybody else out there thinks he looks like Bert from Bert and Ernie and the whole Sesame Street gang? Notice how his eyebrows are almost falling into his eyes and his smile only goes out to the side and doesn’t curl up at the edges? His forehead is rock solid and he doesn’t have the natural creases. No wonder he can’t answer “tough question.” Give me a break! His neurogsurgeon should have told him not to have Botox injections after he had two aneurysms repaired. After having brain surgery could change a person’s personality and their “common sense” thinking. Been a long day putting people back together and working in neurosurgery today. Good night.

JACK SMITH – WORKING CLASS… :-)
Hey, I know where you’re coming from. Bush should never ever have been President (I call him a DICTATOR because he does what he wants when he wants) in 2000. How convenient that Florida had problems. Then in 2004 they called it that Ohio was going to be the problem state as the day wore on. How on GOD’s Green Earth did they know?
I’m all for the BUSH regime being formally charged after he’s out of office for starting a war that never should have happened. Afghanistan was the first and only place we should have gone. WEAPONS OF MASS DESTRUCTION turned into LIBERATING THE PEOPLE OF IRAQ….give me a f#@king break!
BUSH, CHENEY, ROVE, LIBBY, RUMSFELD they had their reasons for doing what they did.
How many thousands of innocent lives were lost because of the marbles rolling around in that idiot of a DICTATOR’s head?
The way we elect our PRESIDENT (use that loosely) needs to change….

And wasn’t it Palin who said we should delay the investigation in Alaska regarding her abuse of power and ethics law violation? Hmmm.. now it seems the investigation has been widened to look at other ethics violation charges and to include her staff as well..
And this from the woman who is still not quite sure what the job of VP is, and thinks that seeing Russia from an Alaskan Island constitutes foreign policy experience.
I think Obama can safely ignore any ‘advise’ she may offer on pretty much anything except perhaps how to hunt game from a helicopter. After November, she will be lucky if she even has a job left to go back to.

sammy…
Thank you! Very well put. War is a terrible thing and I HATE IT. I think that BUSH was just to quick with his decision when he started the war in IRAQ. It had NOTHING to do with Afghanistan and Osama Bin Laden at that time.
As great as Democracy is, we had no right to impose that on Iraq. They weren’t asking for it at the time that BUSH started the war! What they had in place took thousands of years and here we are, the U.S. with a couple of hundred years plus trying to dictate (hence DICTATOR) how to run their country.
AS you can see, we’ve done a hell of a job!!

Barack Obama’s trips to Hawaii on a chartered Boeing 757 each cost more than twice the price of Sarah Palin’s new clothes.
Brad Blakeman, who was in charge of scheduling for President Bush, says a Boeing 757 costs about $20,000 an hour for fuel, crew, and maintenance.
Since a trip to Hawaii entails 10 hours of flying time from Chicago, the total cost for each round-trip comes to about $400,000.

– Jules you don’t even know who Elizabeth Hasselback is! She’s not a game show runner up! –
Her claim to fame before hosting the view was being a runner-up on survivor. She is about as clueless as Palin, actually even more so, as you would know if you have ever listened to her on the show. She exemplifies the typical ‘stupid blond’ persona that many women have fought to remove themselves from, and is hardly a spokeswoman for anyone but herself.

Posted by: You know who it is | October 26, 2008, 11:18 pm 11:18 pm

I really fear for this country if Barack Obama is elected! He has no idea at all about how to run our millitary! The thought of him being the commander-in-chief is frightening! He has no millitary experience, NONE! He never spent even one day in the millitary. He has no understanding of it at all! He also wants to “negociate” with our enemies! He will make this country look like a world wide wimp! Our enemies, people like the Osama bin Laden and Al Queda and the president of Iran, will think we’re weak and won’t hesitate to attack us again! John McCain knows and understands the millitary and he won’t “negociate”! We need John McCain as president!

Posted by: carlyonsue | October 26, 2008, 11:20 pm 11:20 pm

This is what I do know about Sarah Palin ….
The Alaskan EarMarks Queen, of the Frozen Tundra.
She has no [Executive Experience]
Her greatest contribution to Wasilla is the Hockey Rink she had erected and she Built the Hockey Rink before purchasing the land to build the road that leads to the Hockey Rink, she built the road on land, she Did Not purchase and now those same landowners whose land was used to lead to the Hockey Rink, now have her A!! in litigation….
Big Note: For using the Land Owners land Without Purchasing the Land First !!
The Town of Wasilla, population 9,000 or Less, was only 1 Million Dollar in Debt, when Palin took Office, When Palin left her office as Mayor of Wasilla, she left the Town of Wasilla with a 20-25 Million Dollars in DEBT !!!
Sounds like Bush-Cheney in a Dress, she’s like Bush in this regard….
She’s like Bush entering office with Less Debt and leaving office in Greater Debt than Before !!!
She’s like Cheney when it comes to the [Hunting]…
America will not allow her the Chance or Witness another Cheney Hunting Incident, in the Body of Sarah Palin .
Todd Palin was an is Sarah Palin’s Shadow Mayor and now Shadow Governor, with the Paper Trail to prove it too.
Palin Lied about her turning down that Ketchikan “Bridge To Nowhere”
She sure as hell, Never Returned the EarMarks Millions given for the Project, an used the Millions for other Projects.
If she turned the Project Down, why did’nt she Return the Funding [EarMark Millions]
Her Gas-Oil Pipeline, via a Canadian Gas-Oil Company, she claimed had been started in Alaska, during the GOP Convention, was a LIE and it Does Not Exist and is now in Litigation as I peck away !!!
The Native Canadian Indians are also taking the Canadian Gas-Oil Company, Palin is using, are beig Dragged into court, based on these Native Canadian Indians taking them to court, because they REFUSE to have their Land used in this Gas-oil Venture.
Palin is not a Feminist at all, based on her Husband Controling her Mayoral and Governorship. A feminist will stand on her own an not allow her Husband to Involve himself in her Business and on her Business Affairs.
Palin and her Husband are AIP members and have their own Agenda’s
She has No National or International Experience, she’s not well read or Educated and these are just a few facts about Sarah Palin, The EarMarks Queen of the Frozen Tundra.
Troopergate Proves that McCain Gambled on this Wildcard Alaskan and like most [Maverick's]…
McCain’s A!! is feeling the Pain of Sarah Palin and he Deserves Every Bit of Grief he’s recieving.
He Gambled with the American People and you don’t Gamble with America when it comes to the Economy An especially International and National Affiars, by presenting a Good Looking, Political Novice like Sarah Palin.

soldiers everyday of my life.
I think of the innocent Iraqi people.
I am so troubled how Bush and his
Administration has been able to stay
in the White House after all they have
done to the American people and our
Military and their families.
Iraq never deserved what Bush has done.
It will always bother me what really

All I know is he is a disaster and I
can’t wait until his time is up.
We need Obama!!!

Hey “Katie” — Are you sure about “Eisenhower’s Granddaughter” endorsing McCain. I’m asking because I was at the DNC when Obama accepted the nomination and I’m pretty sure “Eisenhower’s Granddaughter” (also known as Susan Eisenhower) was there giving an endorsement for Obama. You might also want to check out the February 2,2008 Washington Post — particularly an article entitled: “Why I’m Backing Obama” by Susan Eisenhower. Nice try Katie, but no cigar.

McCain’s Top Financial Adv. Says [He Will Raise Your Taxes]
http://www.time-blog.com/swampland/2008/09/the_mccain_tax_increasescontin.html
McCain Top Economic Adviser: [McCain Will Raise Taxes] …Fact !!!
“Whether you’re a Republican, Democrat President or a Martian, Taxes will be Raised”
Though Mccain has said Throughout his campaign
“I will Not, Raise Your Taxes”
His Top Economic Adviser says that a LIE….
Obama will Raise Taxes on those that make More than 250,000…
The 250,000 per year and Under, will have a Tax Break and Tax Cut.
——————————————
Douglas Holtz-Eakin, a former Director of the Congressional Budget Office and current chief McCain economic advisor, is an honest man–which means he’s something of a liability on the Straight Talk Express. A few months ago, he admitted to my colleague, Michael Scherer, that Barack Obama’s economic plan would reduce taxes for most people.
And now, in a forthcoming book by Fortune columnist Matt Miller, he makes it clear that the next President is going to have to raise taxes.
“If you do nothing on the spending side, you’re going to have to RAISE TAXES whether you’re a Republican, a Democrat or a Martian,” he tells Miller…and then he immediately makes it clear that the “spending side” part of the argument is nothing more than a ……………
“POLITICAL FIG LEAF”.
——————————————————–
YOU REPUBLICANS ARE SUCH GULLIBLE FOOLS…MCCAIN WILL RAISE YOUR TAXES…PERIOD
TAXES WILL BE RAISED…PERIOD…
2 WARS AT THE COST OF BILLIONS, HIGH UNEMPLOYMENT, RECORD HIGH FORECLOSURE RATES, THE BIGGEST WALLSTREET BAILOUT EVER, INFLATION, ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION, OVER POPULATION, ALL LEAD TO MORE [TAXATION] !!!
THE SPENDING END IS A ..BIG JOKE !!
SIMPLE, DAMN !!!
——————————–
PS: THE GOVERNMENT’S 2 WARS ARE NOT FINANCED BY THE USA, BUT BY STILL VERY ….
[COMMUNIST SOCIALIST- RED CHINA] !!!
QUESTION: IS PRESIDENT BUSH A [SOCIALIST COMMUNIST SYMPATHIZER] ?
BECAUSE IF WE ARE THIS TRULY SELF SUFFICIENT, A TRUE WORLD POWER….
WHY ARE WE NOT FINANCING OUR 2 WARS, OURSESELVES, WITH OUR OWN MONEY ?
THAT IS WHAT [INDEPENDENT COUNTRIES] DO …
OR WHY ARE WE NOT BORROWING MONEY FROM OUR ALLIED NATIONS, OPPOSED TO A STILL VERY ….
[COMMUNIST-SOCIALIST COUNTRY] LIKE [RED CHINA] ….HMMM
———————————————————–
WOULD’NT THAT MAKE THE US GOVERNMENT [SOCIALIST-COMMUNIST] ALSO…
AND THE BUSH ADMINISTRATION [SOCIALIST-COMMUNIST] AS WELL…
THIS [SOCIALIST-COMMUNIST] ACT MUST BE A TITLE OR TAG OF CONVENIENCE OR IS INTERCHANGEABLE, DEPENDING ON WHOSE USING IT TO HIS OR HER NATION’S ADVANTAGE OR DISADVANTAGE….

And don’t forget that McCain was one of the major supporters of our unprovoked invasion of Iraq, more so than any other Congressional member. Having been in the military, he should have known better. It is the duty of our leaders to only put our armed services in harms way when absolutely necessary and required to protect our freedoms. Iraq was neither necessary nor threatened our freedoms. He is a disgrace to the military and to our countries ideals, and has cost the lives of thousands who have died in vein.

Posted by: Natasha | October 26, 2008, 11:25 pm 11:25 pm

Yes, we really need McCain running our
military. He is a warmonger like Bush.
Our military is not to be used for the
President’s vindetta’s. Bush abused his
power. Please go tell all of our soldiers
families that they deserved all of this
that Bush has done. Tell the wounded,

There is no requirement for military experience to be President. In fact, 24 of our previous presidents were lawyers, just like Obama. The primary duty of the president is to execute and uphold the laws of our land. He is comander in chief of the armed forces in name only, and the chiefs of staff are the ones advising the president on important decisions regarding engagement.
Your fears are irrational and unfounded.

I used to think Republicans were bad. That was until Obama, his surrogates, supporters and the MSM showed up during the primaries.

How much military experience does she have? The Alaska National Guard does not count as she has given the commander carte blanche in the daily operations. And what military experience does McCain have besides being a POW? And for that matter, I don’t believe Bush had any military experience!! That is why they have advisors such as Colin Powell.

You know who it is,
I would sanction them first, but it
would matter what threat they were
given to us.
But I would work with the United Nations
to determine what could be done first.
I would not want to use military force
unless it was absolutely necessary knowing
that military force would become very
dangerous for us and our military.
I would try everything else first.
I would definately listen to what other

“I’m going to the Middle East,” Dramesi says. “Turkey, Kuwait, Lebanon, Iran.”
“Why are you going to the Middle East?” McCain asks, dismissively.
“It’s a place we’re probably going to have some problems,” Dramesi says.
“Why? Where are you going to, John?”
“Oh, I’m going to Rio.”
“What the hell are you going to Rio for?”
McCain, a married father of three, shrugs.
“I got a better chance of getting laid.”
Dramesi, who went on to serve as chief war planner for U.S. Air Forces in Europe and commander of a wing of the Strategic Air Command, was not surprised. “McCain says his life changed while he was in Vietnam, and he is now a different man,” Dramesi says today. “But he’s still the undisciplined, spoiled brat that he was when he went in.”

Are you actually dumb enough that because a voter registration card was turned in from “Mickey Mouse” that “Mickey Mouse” is actually going to cast a vote? Every state has to verify that registration information is valid before they can allow that person to vote. More importantly, that said person has to present valid ID when they go to the voter booth.
Posted by: Annoyed | Oct 26, 2008 7:23:18 PM
why wouldn’t ACORN opperatives walk into an Ohio voting booth with a “Mickey Mouse” voter registration card? because it’s too ridiculous? how about a dude named “Chad Ocho Cinco”? that’s ridiculous, isn’t it. except he’s real, and it’s a legal name. Chad Johnson, wide receive #85 on the Cincinnati Bengals (they suck, and they’re going to lose, yet they still draw 100,000+ crowds… like Barack Obama) changed his legal surname to “Ocho Cinco.” True, every Secretary of State by law has to verify each registration as legitimate before a voter identification card is issued, but as you can see, the Secretary of State of Ohio, in cooperation with ACORN, refuses to verify the validity of voter registrations before sending out voter registration cards. It is factually false that you have to have an ID to vote. Many states as a matter of state constitution don’t require drivers licenses, voter IDs, passports, or even utility bills. In many states, the possession of a live voter registration card is sufficient, and in the interest of universal suffrage, so it should be, as long as voter registration fraud isn’t being committed with the complacency of one of the two major office-holding political parties (i.e. Democrats) in the land.

Update America:
The Greatest Show On Earth!
Come One! Come All!
There are tricks, deceptions and misdirection to fool you all!
You we be thrilled by the oratory of empty words and empty promises!
Obama’s presidential campaign that is full of tricks, deceptions, and misdirections!
In Ring Number 1: You be thrilled by the lies created by the Democrats. You will be thrilled to know how they sat on their butts for the past two years and did nothing with Obama leading the way. You will be thrilled at the magic of the Democrats to cause a worldwide financial $10,000,000,000 melt down.
In Ring Number 2: You will be thrilled at seeing Obama’s membership in a church that preaches anti-American policies and a church that has stronger ties to Africa than to America.
In Ring Number 3: You will see the slight of hand of Obama as he makes all-important information about his past disappear. You will be amazed at the disappearance of his birth records and his birth certificate, the disappearance of his connection to money and Rezko’s slum housing in Obama’s 13th district at the cost of $500,000,000 and the disappearance of his connection to known unrepentant terrorists Ayers.
In Ring Number 4: You will see the reasons quoted by past President Ronald Reagan about the kind of destructive government that will be caused by the Democrats and Obama.
Yes, there is a need for four rings because Obama has too many unknowns in his life.

Ask Sarah who pays for her family’s ins? Who is paying for her daughter’s prenatal care? Why do you think she’s not already married? pre-existing pregnancy & the bf probably doesn’t have ins since I’m sure he didn’t work ft in hs & hasn’t been on a job for the 3mo-1yr; oh but I’m sure there’s some decent $5000 private ins out there, right? WRONG! Who’s paying for her disabled sons services? Heck, who does she bill for her housing & airfare?
Sarah Palin gladly takes TAXPAYERS’ money for her personal gain but god forbid some other family might need some assistance with a sick child or a unplanned pregnancy. Sarah “I’ll charge ‘em for the rape kit” sold her soul a long time ago.

In Florida, you do not need to present a voters registration card. You need to present a government issued ID which will be matched to a computer generated list of registered voters. You are then asked your registered address and phone number for verification and required to sign indicating that you have cast your ballot. I hardly doubt Mickey Mouse would be able to vote, but for those of you desperately clinging to any excuse, feel free to keep clinging all the way to November 4th.

If he stays in good health he could even run for a second term! Remember President Reagan was past 80 in his second term! Also John McCain’s mother is still living! She’s in her 90′s! Longevity runs in his family!

In its broad strokes, McCain’s life story is oddly similar to that of the current occupant of the White House. John Sidney McCain III and George Walker Bush both represent the third generation of American dynasties. Both were born into positions of privilege against which they rebelled into mediocrity. Both developed an uncanny social intelligence that allowed them to skate by with a minimum of mental exertion. Both struggled with booze and loutish behavior. At each step, with the aid of their fathers’ powerful friends, both failed upward. And both shed their skins as Episcopalian members of the Washington elite to build political careers as self-styled, ranch-inhabiting Westerners who pray to Jesus in their wives’ evangelical churches.
In one vital respect, however, the comparison is deeply unfair to the current president: George W. Bush was a much better pilot.

After the “Coronation”…
Will the neo-communists censor the Net?
Anybody who is listening or reading knows that a President Barack Obama would yank America toward socialism by the largest margin since FDR’s New Deal. Thanks to Joe the plumber, we know Obama wants to redistribute wealth, spread it around like it belongs to the government instead of the people who earned it.
Draconian tax increases are just the tip of the socialistic agenda Obama has waiting for us. Obama’s cheerleaders, Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid and other leftists, plan an all-out assault on the First Amendment. Sadly, that doesn’t mean that they’re going to cease the unending gaseous gaffes. Instead, it means they want to go back to pre-Ronald Reagan days when the government controlled what was said on radio and TV.
The Democrats, as they did in 1934 prompted by FDR, want to re-enact the Fairness Doctrine, which has nothing to do with fairness in communication. This doctrine simply allows the government to decide whose speech is free and whose isn’t. It forced broadcasters to give equal time to what the government deemed were opposing views.
President Ronald Reagan saw the evil behind the Fairness Doctrine and vetoed a bill in 1987 that would have made it law. The bellyaching from the far left has persisted since then, especially since my friend Rush Limbaugh saved AM radio with his style of talk radio. Thin-skinned liberals can’t take Rush’s straight talk, so they want to shut him down. That’s why some call the latest push for the doctrine the Hush Rush law.
I know this sounds like something from Nazi Germany or Castro’s Cuba, but it’s already in the hopper. New Mexico Sen. Jeff Bingaman let the cat out of the bag about the left’s plans to silence its dissenters, according to Brian Maloney of Radio Equalizer.
“With the possibility of a Democratic Party supermajority after the upcoming elections, Jeff Bingaman may soon get his wish to quash dissenting viewpoints,” Maloney reports. ”During an interview with KKOB Albuquerque host Jim Villanucci, Bingaman overtly stated his full support for imposing Fairness Doctrine restrictions on free speech which would effectively shut down talk radio as we know it today.”
If the leftists succeed under the nightmare scenario with Obama in the White House, this time it won’t just be about radio and TV, but could include content on the Internet. You got it – the jackbooted thugs from the left will monitor what you and I write on the Web and let us have it if they don’t think it’s “fair.”
Jeff Poor of NewsBusters wrote about this scary socialistic scheme, reporting that FCC Commissioner Robert McDowell ventured that the feds under the governmental Democratic trifecta (presidency and both houses of Congress) could thrust itself into regulating speech on the Internet.
“He told the Business & Media Institute there’s a possibility the next Congress and administration might attempt to package the renewal of the Fairness Doctrine with Net neutrality regulation,” Poor wrote.
“‘I think the fear is that somehow large corporations will censor their content, their points of view,’ McDowell said, suggesting some conservatives might support Net neutrality legislation based on corporate censorship fears. ‘I think the bigger concern for them should be if you have government dictating content policy, which by the way would have a big First Amendment problem.
“‘Then, whoever is in charge of government is going to determine what is fair, under a so-called “Fairness Doctrine,” which won’t be called that – it’ll be called something else,’ McDowell said. ‘So, will websites, will bloggers have to give equal time or equal space on their website to opposing views rather than letting the marketplace of ideas determine that?’”
The Democrats, who look more and more like neo-communists, should tread lightly here. I don’t just say that because I’ve made my living on talk radio. This is truly a First Amendment issue, so Pelosi and the rest of her minions better break out that Constitution they swore to protect and read up.
The Supreme Court did rule in an earlier day that the previous incarnation of the Fairness Doctrine was constitutional. But the Supreme Court concluded in another case that the doctrine “inescapably dampens the vigor and limits the variety of public debate (Miami Herald Publishing Co. v. Tornillo, 418 U.S. 241),” according to an article at the Heritage Foundation.
Obama and the Democrats’ new deal is a bad deal for every American who believes in the Constitution and the First Amendment. It is a dangerous step to the left that will stifle free expression and, ultimately, democracy.

“If you don’t think John McCain is just as dangerous in the White House as George W. Bush, think again.”
“McCain will not reverse the foreign policy mistakes of George Bush. He is content to leave us in Iraq, saying it’d be ‘fine by me’ if we were in Iraq for another 100 years. He is rash on using military force with Iran. He overplays the military card and doesn’t seem to appreciate that the real strength of the nation lies in our economy and in our values.”
Retired General Wesley Clark
Former Supreme Commander Allied Powers Europe, United States European Command,
United States Southern Command and valedictorian of his class at West Point,
He spent 34 years in the Army and the Department of Defense, receiving many military decorations, several honorary knighthoods, and a Presidential Medal of Freedom. He might know what he is talking about.
Clark accuses McCain and fellow Republicans of turning the threat of terrorism into “a rallying cry for military adventurism.”
He concludes: “John McCain and any Republican senator who supports his presidential candidacy are offering more of the same. And they have got to go.”

WASHINGTON — Al Qaeda supporters suggested in a Web site message this week they would welcome a pre-election terror attack on the U.S. as a way to usher in a McCain presidency.
“This requires presence of an impetuous American leader such as McCain, who pledged to continue the war till the last American soldier,” the message said. “Then, Al Qaeda will have to support McCain in the coming elections so that he continues the failing march of his predecessor, Bush.”

That is why despite being a battleground state, Florida has no ACORN activity; former Gov. Jeb Bush, former Secretary of State Katherine Harris, and current Gov. Charlie Crist conduct elections right. However, other states embrace electoral fraud. This year, ACORN activity is in: Ohio (battleground, Democrat Secretary of State), Nevada (battleground, Democrat Secretary of State), Colorado (battleground, Democrat Secretary of State), Pennsylvania (battleground, Democrat Secretary of State), Virginia (battleground, Democrat Secretary of State) et al…

akskimo: I had skin cancer, too, about 8 years ago. I had melanoma. I caught it early and had it removed and I’m still living! Melanoma is a serious cancer but if you get it treated early enough, before it gets into your lymph nodes, it’s not a death sentence. Just because John McCain has had skin cancer in the past does not mean that he’s going to die anytime soon!

LEHRER: .. when should the United States deploy its armed forces abroad, and what criteria should be used? Are you comfortable with the decision-making that would – that a Bush-Cheney- Powell triumvirate would make?
McCAIN: Yes. I’m extremely comfortable and basically it’s when American interests and values are threatened. And sometimes when our values are threatened, over time our interests can be threatened. I can’t make an argument to you that Kosovo posed an immediate threat to our national interest. But I can argue that it offended our values to a degree that if allowed to go unchecked, then unrestrained, once Milosevic started to do his ethnic cleansing, then sooner or later our interest would be threaten because that same kind of scenario would transpire in other places in Europe.

“John has made a pact with the devil,” says Lincoln Chafee, the former GOP senator, who has been appalled at his one-time colleague’s readiness to sacrifice principle for power. Chafee and McCain were the only Republicans to vote against the Bush tax cuts. They locked arms in opposition to drilling in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge. And they worked together in the “Gang of 14,” which blocked some of Bush’s worst judges from the federal bench.
“On all three — sadly, sadly, sadly — McCain has flip-flopped,” Chafee says. And forget all the “Country First” sloganeering, he adds. “McCain is putting himself first. He’s putting himself first in blinking neon lights.”

BOZO: You are making your Obama camp look stupid, if you think that people here do not know that you are writing with 2 dozen names! In the end, you are achieving just one thing: you are making an “As—le” out of That One, his campaign, and yourselves!
Your tactic includes copying other people’s names and write comments on their behalf – thinking that the rest of the bloggers here are as STUPID AS YOU ARE – not realizing your games.
O’DUMMIES: Get out of your parents home and Obama’s “play-ground” and go get a real job – one that pays better than Obama.

The Boston Herald
October 11, 2008
It is what it is: Obama allied with scoundrels
In the best tradition of Bill Clinton’s declaration that the answer to the question of whether he was having an affair depended on “what the definition of is is,” Sen. Barack Obama was clearly concealing the truth when he said that William Ayers was “just a guy who lives in my neighborhood.”
The Ayers-Obama connection was, in fact, an intimate collaboration that it led to the only executive or administrative experience in Obama’s life.
After Walter Annenberg’s foundation offered several hundred million dollars to American public schools in the mid-’90s, Ayers applied for $50 million for Chicago. His purpose was to “raise political consciousness” in schools.
After he won the grant, Ayers’ group chose Obama to distribute the $50 million, and the future senator raised another $60 million from other civic groups to augment it. In doing so, he was following Ayers’ admonition to grant the funds to “external” organizations, like American Community Organizations for Reform Now (ACORN), to pair with schools and conduct programs to radicalize and politicize the students.
Reading, math and science achievement tests counted for little in the grants, but the school’s success in preaching a radical agenda determined how much money it got.
Obama should have run screaming at the sight of Ayers and his wife, Bernardine Dohrn. Ayers has admitted bombing the U.S. Capitol and the Pentagon, and his wife was imprisoned for failing to cooperate in solving the robbery of a Brink’s car in which two police were killed. Far from remorse, Ayers told The New York Times [NYT], in September 2001, that he wished he “could have done more.” Ayers only avoided conviction when the evidence against him turned out to be contained in illegal wiretaps. He was, in fact, guilty as sin.
So let’s sum up Obama’s Chicago connections. His chief financial supporter was Tony Rezko, now on his way to prison. His spiritual adviser was the Rev. Jeremiah Wright, of “God damn America” fame. And the guy who got him his only administrative job is former terrorist Ayers.
Not a good recommendation for a president.

The Washington Post
Obama’s Iffy Numbers On McCain Health Plan
Wednesday, October 22, 2008
“How would your golden years turn out under John McCain? His health-care plan would cut Medicare by $800 billion. That means a 22 percent cut in benefits. Higher premiums and co-pays. More expensive prescription drugs. Nursing home care could suffer. . . . After a lifetime of work, seniors’ health care shouldn’t be a gamble. John McCain’s plan? It’s not the change we need.”
– Obama campaign’s “Your Golden Years” ad
Barack Obama has been telling seniors that their hard-won Medicare benefits are at risk if his rival wins the election. The message has been hammered home in a series of speeches and television ads, including the one shown above, set against a backdrop of spinning lottery balls. Is it true, as the Democratic senator asserts, that his Republican opponent is planning to “gamble” with Medicare benefits?
THE FACTS
The Obama claim rests primarily on a Wall Street Journal interview with McCain’s top economic adviser, Douglas Holtz-Eakin, that was published Oct. 6. Holtz-Eakin told the Journal that McCain would pay for his health plan “in part” by looking for “savings” in Medicare and Medicaid. He was vague about where the savings would come from, other than talking about the need to cut fraud and waste in the programs.
“It’s about giving [Medicare and Medicaid recipients] the benefit package that has been promised to them by law at lower cost,” Holtz-Eakin told the newspaper.
In other words, contrary to the claim in the Obama ad, the McCain campaign was specifically promising not to “cut benefits” but to provide the promised benefits at a lower cost. The Obama ad misleadingly cites the Wall Street Journal interview as the source for the alarming “22 percent cut in benefits.”
How did the Obama campaign come up with the claim of an $800 billion cut in Medicare (described in another Obama ad as an $882 billion cut)? Answer: some back-of-the-envelope calculations by a liberal think tank, the Center for American Progress.
The think tank bases its findings on the assumption that McCain will need to save around $1.3 trillion over 10 years to pay for his health-care plan. (This is based on an analysis by the independent Tax Policy Center that has not been challenged by the McCain campaign.) The senator from Arizona has promised to give Americans a $2,500 refundable tax credit to be spent on health care in exchange for taxing the health benefits they receive from their employers.
It may be that McCain is wildly optimistic in believing that he can find sufficient savings in Medicare and Medicaid to pay for his promised refundable health-care tax credit. But such a criticism also applies to Obama, who is relying on similar cost cuts to fund his health-care plan. The senator from Illinois says that a shift to electronic health records will generate savings of around $120 billion a year, a claim termed “wishful thinking” by many independent experts.
THE PINOCCHIO TEST
John McCain has not provided a convincing explanation for how he will fund his health-care plan. But it is a huge stretch for the Obama campaign to argue that the McCain plan will inevitably result in an $800 billion (or $880 billion) cut in Medicare programs over 10 years, or a “22 percent cut” in benefits paid to American seniors. McCain’s top economic adviser has specifically promised not to cut benefits.
THREE PINOCCHIOS: Significant factual errors.

Obama has his tenuous connection with Ayers.
McCain on the other hand has direct involvement and has provided support for terrorist activites throughout the years. He sat on the advisory board of the US Council for World Freedom, which along with it’s parent organization has been called by the Anti-Defamation League as a gathering place and forum for extremists, racists and anti-Semites. It was used covertly to circumvent US law by Oliver North to provide funding and arms to the Contras in an effort to overthrow the Nicaraguan Government, which resulted in some of the most brutal and savage actions agains innocent men, woman and children in that country.
In 1999, McCain and Joe Lieberman co-sponsored the “Kosovo Self-Defense Act” with the goal of arming the KLA – An Islamic militant group that, according to a white paper written by the Senate Republican policy committee, are an extensive Albanian crime network, derives most of its financing from drug trafficking and is motivated by the ideology of radical Islam and has ties to Al-Qaeda and Osams Bin Laden.
http://www.fas.org/irp/world/para/docs/fr033199.htm
The KLA was responsible for beheadings, torture, rape, burning of churches, and other atrocities. To this day, the KLA insurgency continues the systematic persecution and genocidal cleansing of Serbian civilians residing in Albania, and John McCain continues to support them, and the Albanian American Citizens League continues to provide campaign funding and praise for McCain and his help in arming and funding the KLA. McCain reiterated his support in the 2nd presidential debate.

I get a sense of creepiness whenever I listen to Campbell Brownose – the witch of CNN – or Keith Olberman that pig with lipstick at MSNBC.
Tabloid news is what brings revenue from adevertising sources. And, the “24-hour-news-for-dummies-networks” compete with each other based on what most American viwers love to watch – tabloid news.
CNN would NOT dear presenting to the rest of the world the “mickey mouse” news that they are presenting to us here. They know better than that…No wonder CNN International is a heck of a lot more serious news source. They do not even want us to have access to CNN International (available to only 6 million households in the US) because they know darn well that we would stop watching CNN-domestic. In that case Jon Clown’s ekhmmm, Jon Klein’s CNN-domestic would go out of business.
And the funny thing is the LIARS blame the cable companies and satellite companies for not making CNN International available to the entire US! That’s OK, I am not complaining…I get both BBC World News and BBC America and that is what I watch most of the time. BBC World News is my favorite. They cover the Presidential election much better – less biased – than CNN, MSNBC, FOX, etc.
Also, I get the news on line from Deutsche Welle, Reuters, BBC, Voice of America, and of course reading the major domestic and foreign newspapers online as well.
Call your cable and satellite companies and ask them to carry BBC World News (not the same as BBC America) or see if you can convince them to carry CNN International (remember CNN is not really making it easy – they do not promote it because “comrade Jon Klein (Clown)” does not like to compete with CNN Int’l.
Well, we as viewers have the power to get them to change their pathetic news coverage. Tune them out – get your news on line or PBS.
Better yet – bombard them with letters and phone calls, and make sure you contact their major advertisers. Tell their advertisers that you will stop bying their products if they continue to do business with ABC, CNN, MSNBC etc.
I am a member of an organization for children with disabilities. ABC, CNN, MSNBC and the rest of the sexist media clowns will be crying pretty soon (after election is over) due to the boycotting by their advertisers whom we are contacting to protest Palins’ treatment regarding her family, her child Trigg, etc.

“I’m going to the Middle East,” Dramesi says. “Turkey, Kuwait, Lebanon, Iran.”
“Why are you going to the Middle East?” McCain asks, dismissively.
“It’s a place we’re probably going to have some problems,” Dramesi says.
“Why? Where are you going to, John?”
“Oh, I’m going to Rio.”
“What the hell are you going to Rio for?”
McCain, a married father of three, shrugs.
“I got a better chance of getting laid.”
Dramesi, who went on to serve as chief war planner for U.S. Air Forces in Europe and commander of a wing of the Strategic Air Command, was not surprised. “McCain says his life changed while he was in Vietnam, and he is now a different man,” Dramesi says today. “But he’s still the undisciplined, spoiled brat that he was when he went in.”

Measured against these broad principles, Obama’s proposal for mixed private–public group insurance with a shared responsibility for financing has greater potential to move the health care system toward high performance than does McCain’s proposal to encourage individual market coverage through the use of tax incentives and deregulation (Figure ES-4). Compared with McCain’s approach, Obama’s approach could provide more people with affordable health insurance that covers essential services, achieve greater equity in access to care, realize efficiencies and cost savings in the provision of coverage and delivery of care, and redirect incentives to improve quality.

Update America:
President Ronald Reagan quotes that make Obama a ZERO:
The best minds are not in government. If any were, business would hire them away.
The government’s view of the economy could be summed up in a few short phrases: If it moves, tax it. If it keeps moving, regulate it. And if it stops moving, subsidize it.
The nine most terrifying words in the English language are, ‘I’m from the government and I’m here to help.’
Abortion is advocated only by persons who have themselves been born.
All great change in America begins at the dinner table.
Entrepreneurs and their small enterprises are responsible for almost all the economic growth in the United States.
I don’t believe in a government that protects us from ourselves.
Government’s first duty is to protect the people, not run their lives.
Governments tend not to solve problems, only to rearrange them.
Republicans believe every day is the Fourth of July, but the democrats believe every day is April 15.”
Reading the endorsements of Obama in the liberal media should strengthen the determination of all believers in American self-government and greatness to fight this election campaign to the end. Time magazine’s Joe Klein tells us that Obama “seems a grown-up, in a nation that badly needs some adult supervision.” To the contrary, we are a nation
of adults. We don’t need the “supervision” of a conventionally liberal and totally untested junior senator whose most impressive lifetime achievement has been the construction of an effective narrative about himself.

In contrast, Sen. McCain, who constantly repeats his no-new-taxes promise on the campaign trail, proposes a big tax hike as the solution to our health-care crisis. His plan would raise taxes on workers who receive health benefits, with the idea of encouraging their employers to drop coverage. A study conducted by University of Michigan economist Tom Buchmueller and colleagues published in the journal Health Affairs suggests that the McCain tax hike will lead employers to drop coverage for over 20 million Americans.

Wrong.. Socialized medicine is NOT Obamas health plan. Just shows your ignorance.
The Obama plan’s large net increase in coverage is the result of small increases in employer-sponsored and public insurance, and large enrollment (almost 30 million) in the new national insurance pool. This pool would offer insurance at “community-rated” prices, that is, prices that do not discriminate based on health status. This large pool would have substantial administrative and marketing cost-savings relative to the existing non-group market, creating potential savings not just for those judged to be bad risks by insurance companies, but for all purchasers who do not currently have access to employer or public programs.

Americans of Albanian heritage collected a million dollars in one evening for the presidential campaign of Republican Senator John McCain, said the Albanian American Civic League yesterday, the lobby group headed by former Congressman Joe DioGuardi. A reception for McCain was held January 22 at the Saint Regis Hotel in Manhatten, and the senator, who is now leading in the runoff for the Republican party candidacy in the November elections, cut his campaign in Florida by one day to attend this gathering.
“Even in 1998 when we had problems with Milosevic, McCain did everything that we asked of him to the benefit of the Albanian people, including arming the KLA”, announced DioGuardi. “We are American Albanians and we need a leader who will strengthen this country… We must support John McCain because he did everything we asked of him for Kosovo, from supporting the Kosovo Liberation Army to supporting the independence of Kosovo. Two years ago he spoke in Brussels and said that independence is the only solution”, concluded this former congressman who has been fighting for the independence of Kosovo and Metohija for more than twenty years.
And just who are the KLA that McCain is so fond of-
“The KLA – The Kosovo Liberation Army – is an Islamic terrorist group responsible for beheadings, torture, rape, burning down churches filled with Christians, and other atrocities. To this day, the KLA insurgency continues the systematic persecution and genocidal cleansing of Serbian civilians residing in Albania. The former leaders, enjoying life as high paid politicians in the Albania Government, are unapologetic for the crimes committed.”
McCain continues to support the KLA to this very day.

MCCAIN AND THE U.S. COUNCIL FOR WORLD FREEDOM…. On “Meet the Press” the other day, Tom Brokaw asked Paul Begala about the political implications of McCain trying to smear Obama with William Ayers. Begala argued that this whole approach may backfire, given McCain’s background with the “very right-wing” U.S. Council for World Freedom, an offshoot of the radical World Anti-Communist League.
McCain “does not want to play guilt by association or this thing could blow up in his face,” Begala concluded.

I’m one of those people who sent certified mail and told him to his face that repairs were never done and his friend was freezing us to death. Yet now he says he didn’t know. My aunt is still waiting seven years for housing after she was kicked out for the building demolition. The little scheme (you can ask Val Jarrett and Nesbitt on his campaign as well, they’re involved), was to build combo low income and co-ops (smart right), one problem, when it was time to move in there was a board and many couldn’t come back… they forgot to share that. Rezko cried bankruptcy to the judge while we froze while he gave Obama donations. If you had any idea how many got kicked out of horrible buildings in the middle of winter and how many stories were out on it, you wouldn’t look at him twice for that lie.
He’s about him, nothing else. You guys need to look at Chicago to see what the country will be like.

Update America:
T. Boone Pickens made billions of dollars in the oil business. Today, he’s selling a plan to get America off foreign oil dependence, turning instead to natural gas and wind power. He’s spent millions promoting what he calls “The Pickens Plan.”
Exactly why Governor Sarah Palin went after the big oil companies and that is the reason big oil hates Governor Sarah Palin.
Conoco, which is a partner in a Darwin LNG project and ALASKA LNG plant, entered the spot trading business this year to bid for LNG cargoes and resell them, Schuppert said.
You Betcha Palin Is A Tough Governor and a great brainy executive:
Alaska could revoke leases for oil fields like Prudhoe Bay if top energy companies refuse to participate in a government natural gas pipeline plan, Gov Sarah Palin told Reuters in an interview.
Exxon Mobil Corp, BP Plc and ConocoPhillips together control more than 35 trillion cubic feet of known gas reserves on the Alaska North Slope.
But the companies declined to participate in a process backed by Palin to jump-start a long-delayed gas pipeline, arguing they needed a long-term tax deal from the state first.
Palin called the refusal “unconstitutional.”
“When the conditions of these leases are not met, especially after decades, it is time to open them up and allow other companies to come in here and compete for the right to tap the resources,” the Republican governor told Reuters this week in an interview.
The companies have said they are interested in developing the reserves, with ConocoPhillips studying a separate plan.
Sarah Palin more than talks about the future, she pushes to get it.
Japan, Buyers Face LNG Shortage After 2012, ConocoPhillips Says
By Dinakar Sethuraman
Oct. 23 (Bloomberg) — Japan, South Korea and Spain, the world’s three biggest buyers of liquefied natural gas, may find it difficult to secure supplies of the fuel between 2012 and 2015, pushing prices higher.
There may be a shortage of the cleaner-burning fuel after 2012 because of a lack of new projects, Gerard Schuppert, manager for global LNG marketing at ConocoPhillips, told reporters at the LNG Supplies for Asian Markets conference in Singapore.
“Only one project was sanctioned this year at Arzew in Algeria,” Andy Flower, a consultant and a former employee at BP Plc’s LNG business, said at the conference yesterday. “It takes about four years now to build a new train.” Three projects were approved in 2006 and 2007.
The decline in new project approvals, and the current financial crisis that’s reduced lending to projects, may slow growth in LNG supplies to between 4 percent and 5 percent annually in 2013 to 2020, Flower said. That’s down from growth of as much as 9 percent in 2007 to 2012. Output may grow 4.5 percent to about 177 million metric tons this year, he said.
Conoco, which is a partner in a Darwin LNG project and Alaska LNG plant, entered the spot trading business this year to bid for LNG cargoes and resell them, Schuppert said.
Only six of the world’s 17 LNG-producing countries showed an increase in exports of the fuel in the first nine months of this year, Flower said.
Send Sarah Palin to Washington, D.C. Obama will never equal Sarah Palin ‘s qualification for an executive position. Obama is all empty talk and empty promises. Sarah Palin is an action person and she gets results.

We have now watched McCain run twice for president. The first time he positioned himself as a principled centrist and decried the politics of Karl Rove and the influence of the religious right, imploring voters to judge candidates “by the example we set, by the way we conduct our campaigns, by the way we personally practice politics.” After he lost in 2000, he jagged hard to the left — breaking with the president over taxes, drilling, judicial appointments, even flirting with joining the Democratic Party.
In his current campaign, however, McCain has become the kind of politician he ran against in 2000. He has embraced those he once denounced as “agents of intolerance,” promised more drilling and deeper tax cuts, even compromised his vaunted opposition to torture. Intent on winning the presidency at all costs, he has reassembled the very team that so viciously smeared him and his family eight years ago, selecting as his running mate a born-again moose hunter whose only qualification for office is her ability to electrify Rove’s base. And he has engaged in a “practice of politics” so deceptive that even Rove himself has denounced it, saying that the outright lies in McCain’s campaign ads go “too far” and fail the “truth test.”

Responding to the collapse of several major investment banks this week, John McCain reassured us, “I think still — the fundamentals of our economy are strong.” That move comes from an old playbook: On Oct. 25, 1929, Herbert Hoover declared, “The fundamental business of the country, that is the production and distribution of commodities, is on a sound and prosperous basis.”
The day before Hoover insisted that the fundamentals were strong was the day that came to be known as Black Thursday, when in heavy trading the Dow Jones Industrial Average lost about 9 percent of its value. And while, in endless stock-footage documentaries showing images of dumbfounded traders over a soundtrack of mournful jazz clarinets, the crash is supposed to begin the Great Depression, it wasn’t quite so. The real cause was the collapse of the banking system, which followed the crash in part because Hoover believed strong fundamentals would protect the economy from disaster.

Santorum: McCain Presidency Very Dangerous
“It’s amazing to hear what John McCain is trying to convince the voters he is all about. The bottom line is, I served 12 years with him, six years in the Senate as one of the leaders of the Senate, trying to put together the conservative agenda, and almost at every turn, on domestic policy, John McCain was not only against us, but leading the charge on the other side.”
As Newsmax reported at the time, Santorum said in an interview: “I don’t agree with him on hardly any issues. I don’t think he has the temperament and leadership ability to move the country in the right direction.”

The real reasons for the large corporations moving out of America and moving to Canada, Mexico and the Far East: Unions winning big wage and benefit packages and American companies paying high taxes. Big business needs to be competitive with the rest of the world. When unions call for big wage increases and big benefit packages, America can NOT compete with the rest of the world.

There has been a great deal of work on why individuals or groups resort to terrorism. There has also been a growing literature on whether terrorism “works.” But there has been virtually no systematic analysis by policymakers or academics on how terrorism ends. This gap is troubling.
Seven years after the September 11, 2001 attacks, the United States cannot continue conducting an effective counter-terrorism campaign against al Qa’ida without understanding how terrorist groups end.
To help fill this gap, Martin Libicki and I examined 648 terrorist groups that existed between 1968 and 2006. We found that they ended for two major reasons: members decided to adopt non-violent tactics and join the political process (43 percent of the time), or local police and intelligence agencies arrested or killed key members of the group (40 percent). Military force has rarely been the primary reason how terrorist groups have ended (10 percent), and few groups have ever achieved victory (7 percent). The results are also revealing for religious groups, as shown in Figure 2. Only 16 percent have ended because of military force, and another 11 percent have ended because they joined the political process. By far the most effective strategy against religious groups has been the use of local police and intelligence services, which were responsible for the end of 73 percent of groups since 1968.

McCain on the other hand has direct involvement and has provided support for terrorist activites throughout the years. He sat on the advisory board of the US Council for World Freedom, which along with it’s parent organization has been called by the Anti-Defamation League as a gathering place and forum for extremists, racists and anti-Semites. It was used covertly to circumvent US law by Oliver North to provide funding and arms to the Contras in an effort to overthrow the Nicaraguan Government, which resulted in some of the most brutal and savage actions agains innocent men, woman and children in that country.
In 1999, McCain and Joe Lieberman co-sponsored the “Kosovo Self-Defense Act” with the goal of arming the KLA – An Islamic militant group that, according to a white paper written by the Senate Republican policy committee, are an extensive Albanian crime network, derives most of its financing from drug trafficking and is motivated by the ideology of radical Islam and has ties to Al-Qaeda and Osams Bin Laden.
http://www.fas.org/irp/world/para/docs/fr033199.htm
The KLA was responsible for beheadings, torture, rape, burning of churches, and other atrocities. To this day, the KLA insurgency continues the systematic persecution and genocidal cleansing of Serbian civilians residing in Albania, and John McCain continues to support them, and the Albanian American Citizens League continues to provide campaign funding and praise for McCain and his help in arming and funding the KLA. McCain reiterated his support in the 2nd presidential debate.

Update America:
ABC News Did Not Report This:
Obama’s Hawaii Trips Cost More Than Palin’s Clothes
Sunday, October 26, 2008 3:21 PM
By: Ronald Kess
Barack Obama’s trips to Hawaii on a chartered Boeing 757 each cost more than twice the price of Sarah Palin’s new clothes.
Brad Blakeman, who was in charge of scheduling for President Bush, says a Boeing 757 costs about $20,000 an hour for fuel, crew, and maintenance. Since a trip to Hawaii entails 10 hours of flying time from Chicago, the total cost for each round-trip comes to about $400,000.
Obama used the Boeing 757 for trips to Hawaii over the summer for a vacation and again last week to see his failing grandmother. Admirable though that visit was, “By Obama using a private jet to go on a purely personal visit to see his grandma, he’s wasting not only energy, but he’s using the money that his supporters have given him for campaign purposes,” Blakeman says. “It’s a purely personal visit paid for with campaign funds.”
On the other hand, the media are highlighting the Republican National Committee’s purchase of $150,000 in clothes for Palin, even though the dresses will be donated to charities. The New York Times played the story on page one.
“They’re picking on Palin, who was provided a wardrobe by the RNC strictly for political purposes, and it was always intended that these garments would be then given to charity,” Blakeman says. “So there’s a benefit that’s going to charity, not a benefit that Palin will have after the election. There was a need for it because she’s a modest person who didn’t have an extensive wardrobe to do 24/7 campaigning.”
To pick on Palin without going after Obama’s plane trips is “an absolute journalistic abuse,” Blakeman says. “This is the same plane that he took to Hawaii when he went on vacation. In the summertime, when gas was soaring and Americans were having to pinch their pennies, this guy gets on his campaign plane and goes to Hawaii on vacation. He did a couple campaign stops in a state that is not a swing state and is a guaranteed win for Obama. That was clearly to cover the tracks of this vacation.”
Blakeman notes that at the height of the gasoline price surge, Obama suggested that Americans check their vehicle’s tire pressure as a way of conserving fuel.
“I wonder if he checked the tires on his jumbo jet before taking off for a purely personal visit?” Blakeman says. “The way he spends campaign money is a direct reflection of how he will spend ours. He could have easily flown commercial or taken a much smaller corporate aircraft that would cost a fraction of a 757.”
Ironically, it was Palin as governor who saved money for Alaskans by selling the state’s jet and instead flying commercial.
Kellyanne Conway, one of the most respected Republican pollsters, says the media’s attack on Palin’s clothes is an example of elitist snobbery or “classism.” Noting the media’s treatment of her, “I can’t believe her own family still approves of her, after the unprecedented, personal and relentless attacks that this woman has undergone,” Conway says.
Besides attacks on Palin over her clothes, Conway cites snide remarks about “the way she speaks, her husband’s lack of a college degree, the barefoot and pregnant 17-year-old daughter, you know who hunts moose anyway? The classism is so raw and unapologetic, so unconsidered and so undisguised.”

Would the Last Honest Reporter Please Turn On the Lights?
By Orson Scott Card
Editor’s note: Orson Scott Card is a Democrat and a newspaper columnist, and in this opinion piece he takes on both while lamenting the current state of journalism.
An open letter to the local daily paper — almost every local daily paper in America:
I remember reading All the President’s Men and thinking: That’s journalism. You do what it takes to get the truth and you lay it before the public, because the public has a right to know.
This housing crisis didn’t come out of nowhere. It was not a vague emanation of the evil Bush administration.
It was a direct result of the political decision, back in the late 1990s, to loosen the rules of lending so that home loans would be more accessible to poor people. Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac were authorized to approve risky loans.
What is a risky loan? It’s a loan that the recipient is likely not to be able to repay.
The goal of this rule change was to help the poor — which especially would help members of minority groups. But how does it help these people to give them a loan that they can’t repay? They get into a house, yes, but when they can’t make the payments, they lose the house — along with their credit rating.
They end up worse off than before.
This was completely foreseeable and in fact many people did foresee it. One political party, in Congress and in the executive branch, tried repeatedly to tighten up the rules. The other party blocked every such attempt and tried to loosen them.
Furthermore, Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae were making political contributions to the very members of Congress who were allowing them to make irresponsible loans. (Though why quasi-federal agencies were allowed to do so baffles me. It’s as if the Pentagon were allowed to contribute to the political campaigns of Congressmen who support increasing their budget.)
Isn’t there a story here? Doesn’t journalism require that you who produce our daily paper tell the truth about who brought us to a position where the only way to keep confidence in our economy was a $700 billion bailout? Aren’t you supposed to follow the money and see which politicians were benefiting personally from the deregulation of mortgage lending?
I have no doubt that if these facts had pointed to the Republican Party or to John McCain as the guilty parties, you would be treating it as a vast scandal. “Housing-gate,” no doubt. Or “Fannie-gate.”
Instead, it was Senator Christopher Dodd and Congressman Barney Frank, both Democrats, who denied that there were any problems, who refused Bush administration requests to set up a regulatory agency to watch over Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, and who were still pushing for these agencies to go even further in promoting sub-prime mortgage loans almost up to the minute they failed.
As Thomas Sowell points out in a TownHall.com essay entitled “Do Facts Matter?” ( http://snipurl.com/457townhall_com ): “Alan Greenspan warned them four years ago. So did the Chairman of the Council of Economic Advisers to the President. So did Bush’s Secretary of the Treasury.”
These are facts. This financial crisis was completely preventable. The party that blocked any attempt to prevent it was … the Democratic Party. The party that tried to prevent it was … the Republican Party.
Yet when Nancy Pelosi accused the Bush administration and Republican deregulation of causing the crisis, you in the press did not hold her to account for her lie. Instead, you criticized Republicans who took offense at this lie and refused to vote for the bailout!
What? It’s not the liar, but the victims of the lie who are to blame?
Now let’s follow the money … right to the presidential candidate who is the number-two recipient of campaign contributions from Fannie Mae.
And after Franklin Raines, the CEO of Fannie Mae who made $90 million while running it into the ground, was fired for his incompetence, one presidential candidate’s campaign actually consulted him for advice on housing.
If that presidential candidate had been John McCain, you would have called it a major scandal and we would be getting stories in your paper every day about how incompetent and corrupt he was.
But instead, that candidate was Barack Obama, and so you have buried this story, and when the McCain campaign dared to call Raines an “adviser” to the Obama campaign — because that campaign had sought his advice — you actually let Obama’s people get away with accusing McCain of lying, merely because Raines wasn’t listed as an official adviser to the Obama campaign.
You would never tolerate such weasely nit-picking from a Republican.
If you who produce our local daily paper actually had any principles, you would be pounding this story, because the prosperity of all Americans was put at risk by the foolish, short-sighted, politically selfish, and possibly corrupt actions of leading Democrats, including Obama.
If you who produce our local daily paper had any personal honor, you would find it unbearable to let the American people believe that somehow Republicans were to blame for this crisis.
There are precedents. Even though President Bush and his administration never said that Iraq sponsored or was linked to 9/11, you could not stand the fact that Americans had that misapprehension — so you pounded us with the fact that there was no such link. (Along the way, you created the false impression that Bush had lied to them and said that there was a connection.)
If you had any principles, then surely right now, when the American people are set to blame President Bush and John McCain for a crisis they tried to prevent, and are actually shifting to approve of Barack Obama because of a crisis he helped cause, you would be laboring at least as hard to correct that false impression.
Your job, as journalists, is to tell the truth. That’s what you claim you do, when you accept people’s money to buy or subscribe to your paper.
But right now, you are consenting to or actively promoting a big fat lie — that the housing crisis should somehow be blamed on Bush, McCain, and the Republicans. You have trained the American people to blame everything bad — even bad weather — on Bush, and they are responding as you have taught them to.
If you had any personal honor, each reporter and editor would be insisting on telling the truth — even if it hurts the election chances of your favorite candidate.
Because that’s what honorable people do. Honest people tell the truth even when they don’t like the probable consequences. That’s what honesty means . That’s how trust is earned.
Barack Obama is just another politician, and not a very wise one. He has revealed his ignorance and naivete time after time — and you have swept it under the rug, treated it as nothing.
Meanwhile, you have participated in the borking of Sarah Palin, reporting savage attacks on her for the pregnancy of her unmarried daughter — while you ignored the story of John Edwards’s own adultery for many months.
So I ask you now: Do you have any standards at all? Do you even know what honesty means?
Is getting people to vote for Barack Obama so important that you will throw away everything that journalism is supposed to stand for?
You might want to remember the way the National Organization of Women threw away their integrity by supporting Bill Clinton despite his well-known pattern of sexual exploitation of powerless women. Who listens to NOW anymore? We know they stand for nothing; they have no principles.
That’s where you are right now.
It’s not too late. You know that if the situation were reversed, and the truth would damage McCain and help Obama, you would be moving heaven and earth to get the true story out there.
If you want to redeem your honor, you will swallow hard and make a list of all the stories you would print if it were McCain who had been getting money from Fannie Mae, McCain whose campaign had consulted with its discredited former CEO, McCain who had voted against tightening its lending practices.
Then you will print them, even though every one of those true stories will point the finger of blame at the reckless Democratic Party, which put our nation’s prosperity at risk so they could feel good about helping the poor, and lay a fair share of the blame at Obama’s door.
You will also tell the truth about John McCain: that he tried, as a Senator, to do what it took to prevent this crisis. You will tell the truth about President Bush: that his administration tried more than once to get Congress to regulate lending in a responsible way.
This was a Congress-caused crisis, beginning during the Clinton administration, with Democrats leading the way into the crisis and blocking every effort to get out of it in a timely fashion.
If you at our local daily newspaper continue to let Americans believe — and vote as if — President Bush and the Republicans caused the crisis, then you are joining in that lie.
If you do not tell the truth about the Democrats — including Barack Obama — and do so with the same energy you would use if the miscreants were Republicans — then you are not journalists by any standard.
You’re just the public relations machine of the Democratic Party, and it’s time you were all fired and real journalists brought in, so that we can actually have a news paper in our city.

Both John McCain and Barack Obama have proposed tax plans that would substantially increase the national debt over the next ten years, according to a newly updated analysis by the non-partisan Tax Policy Center. Compared to current law, TPC estimates the Obama plan would cut taxes by $2.9 trillion from 2009-2018. McCain would reduce taxes by nearly $4.2 trillion. Obama would give larger tax cuts to low- and moderate-income households and pay some of the cost by raising taxes on high-income taxpayers. In contrast, McCain would cut taxes across the board and give the biggest cuts to the highest-income households.

It’s going to be, What is in the best interest of all Americans? And I think if history is our guide, we’ve had stronger economies, more wealth creation, under Democratic presidents than we have under Republican presidents. So I don’t understand why all my capitalist friends aren’t Democrats.

Does Obama have NPD?
September 30, 2008
The 2008 presidential election in America is the most crucial election in this country’s history, not because the issues are that critical but because of Sen. Barack Obama. The Democratic presidential candidate’s language, posture and demeanor suggest that he may suffer from narcissistic personality disorder, or NPD. NPD is a pervasive pattern of grandiosity, need for admiration and a lack of empathy. The following are some of the symptoms of NPD that can be seen in Sen. Obama:
He subtly misrepresents facts, opportunistically shifts positions, ignores data that conflict with his fantasy world, is overly confident and acts presidential despite commensurate merits and his modest life achievements, considers himself above the law, talks about himself in the third person, has a messianic vision of himself and his “mission,” displays false modesty while often evincing haughtiness, sublimates aggression, holds grudges and behaves as an eternal adolescent. These are narcissistic traits as seen in Sen. Obama by Dr. Sam Vaknin. The author of “The Malignant Self Love,” Vaknin states, “Barack Obama appears to be a narcissist.”
NPD is the prime disorder experienced by all the madmen of history – from Hitler to Stalin, Mao, Kim, Pol Pot, Osama, Khomeini, Saddam and Idi Amin. These men wreaked havoc and killed millions. They looked normal. Few suspected their insanity until it was too late.
Obama shares something else with these infamous narcissists: a chaotic childhood. One determining factor in the development of NPD is childhood abuse, such as the neglecting of his or her emotional needs.
Pathological narcissism is not run-of-the-mill narcissism – someone with a hedonistic or self-centered sense of self – but rather someone with a very weak sense of self. A child who feels inferior, due to real or perceived social rejection, will try to compensate his feeling of inferiority by a subconscious neurotic mechanism, which the pioneering psychiatrist Alfred Adler coined “Superiority Complex.”
Such a person compensates his devalued and injured self with puffery, pomposity and by projecting a false image of majesty and authority. He retreats into a bubble universe of fantasy, in which he is loved, respected and omnipotent. All children create such a fantasy world. Narcissists simply don’t leave it. Since, due to their extreme feeling of inferiority, they don’t fit in the real world, they refuge into this bubble world of fantasy and never get out. This world of pretence becomes to them as real as the real world, to the point that they can’t tell the difference. When Obama acts presidential, he is simply acting out his childhood fantasy of omnipotence and grandeur. Emotionally, he is still a hurt little boy neglected and unloved, in the body and mind of a grown up man.
Narcissists have the emotional maturity of a child, or even an animal, but the intellect of a man. They feel like a beast, but think like a human. What makes narcissists dangerous is their lack of conscience, combined with their superior intelligence and their superb performance ability that fool many. They are predators that outsmart you.
To a narcissist, reality and fantasy are intertwined. He does not just pretend to be omnipotent, omniscient and superior to others; he actually believes it to be so. His delusions of grandiosity are real to him. That is why Obama acts presidential, despite his nugatory life achievements, lack of experience and complete ignorance in economic, political and military matters, as his flip-flopping shows. Obama is a cipher, but in his mind and those of his worshipers, such as Oprah Winfrey, he is “the One,” the messiah who holds the key to all human sufferings.
Narcissism is not just a character flaw, but a mental disorder. Pathological narcissists are dangerous because they look normal and they are intelligent, when in reality they live in a bubble world of fantasy. It is this incoherence, this disjunction between reality and fantasy that makes them overly confident, self-assured and authoritative.
Narcissists disguise their feeling of inferiority by projecting unusual calmness, confidence, assertiveness, dominance and focus, and almost always possess superb thespian, communication and oratorical skills. These are traits that make one charismatic and attract a stampede of votaries like flies to sugar. Narcissists are needy people who crave attention. They develop these skills and act them out with regal exquisiteness to attract love, respect and admiration. They are performers, actors, slick chameleons.
Sadly, all the grace, exuberance, equanimity, charm, positive energy and magnetism that narcissists project, are pretence. They have the same function that the Styrofoam Greek columns at the Democratic National Convention had – to impress. The world of the narcissist is the magical world of smoke and mirrors. He is an illusionist.
NPD, and people’s lack of understanding of it, has made it possible for many insane individuals to rise to the pinnacles of power. It is to this disorder that we owe most of the carnage of history.
When the Bible describes Satan, it gives a textbook definition of narcissism. Narcissists are charming, charismatic, intelligent, persuasive, but deceitful and ruthless. They can seduce multitudes.
When World War II ended and its horrors became known, the world said, “Never Again.” “Never Again” can only work if we choose our leaders wisely. Once a madman is in power, it is already too late.
In an article entitled “Understanding Obama: The Making of a Fuhrer,” I have shown many narcissistic traits that can be observed in Sen. Obama. Should the senator have NPD, all issues in this election would pale in comparison to what is at stake.
Imagine someone with the mindset of Hitler, Khomeini or Kim Jong-il in the White House, with Congress and Senate at his feet. Can you think of a more dreadful scenario?
In the case of Hitler, the only issue that really mattered was his sanity. Instead, the Germans were hoodwinked by his charisma, his oratorical skill and his vacuous promises of change. They paid a hefty price for their negligence. Shouldn’t we learn from their mistakes?
It makes no sense that cops and pilots should be required to take psychiatric evaluation prior to being trusted with a gun or an aircraft, whereas there is no such requirement for those aspiring to run a country and be commander in chief, in charge of weapons of mass destruction.
It is time for the people of the world to demand that those who want to become head of any country submit to rigorous mental checkups. Millions of lives depend on the sanity of these leaders. If the physical health of presidential candidates is important, how much more important is their mental health?
There is no basis upon which to assume Obama would become a murderous tyrant, but there are a number of disturbing traits he shares with murderous world leaders that are worrisome. He can dispel our fears by submitting to a mental checkup.
In the spirit of fairness, I am asking all candidates to submit to this test. Psychiatric evaluation for leaders seeking positions of authority must become mandatory in all countries. Without it we are playing Russian roulette with war and our lives. Imagine how many millions of lives would have been spared only in the last century if aspiring leaders were screened and madmen barred from gaining power.
If you agree this is a vital issue, which transcends all other issues, whatever your political affiliation, I urge you to please sign this petition (follow link below) and invite others to do the same. If enough people become concerned about Sen. Obama’s mental health, they may think twice before casting their votes for him.
Knowledge is Power. Power be with you.

Obama Takes Europe by Storm
Gary Smith, executive director of the American Academy in Berlin, says that although Obama is still far from the White House, he’s accentuating what’s good in American politics — if not in America itself, particularly as the end of the Bush era looms.
“Europeans are tired of the image of a divided America,” said Smith. Obama’s rise “gives a sense of hope and optimism of a more inclusive America that is likely to mend fences abroad, particularly in Europe.”

In the air, the hard-partying McCain had a knack for stalling out his planes in midflight. He was still in training, in Texas, when he crashed his first plane into Corpus Christi Bay during a routine practice landing. The plane stalled, and McCain was knocked cold on impact. When he came to, the plane was underwater, and he had to swim to the surface to be rescued. Some might take such a near-death experience as a wake-up call: McCain took some painkillers and a nap, and then went out carousing that night.

Update America:
McCain’s link to group in Iran-Contra affair is so weak it is hardly worth mentioning. However, when you look at Obama”s anti-American church, the visits to Africa with a passport not issued by the US, his direct ties to Muslim radicals and American terrorist Ayers, then you have strong unforgiving relationships that can not be denied. Moreover, Obama likes to throw everything under the rug and state he is reborn a different person. Yea, sure.
Obama does not display the honesty of John McCain. Obama is a proven liar time after time.

An Arrogant Unmannered Hypokrite. He embarassed our country just because the Audacity wanthe to promote – not America but his Big Ego!
I was on a business trip in Europe at that time – trust me …I was trying to hide my face – that is how embarasses I was when the Europeans got wind of the fact that the Audacity gave a speech in Berlin but he did not visit our wounded troops at Ramstein Military Base!

Thank you Palin for reminding us of “Obama the Audacity – Trip to Berlin”
Americans of course heard very little about this…
Oh yes! Europe was buzzing with the news and in the end Obama ended up having the Socialists, Radicals, Anarchists of Europe cheering for him!
I was so sad and embarassed when I heard that the Audacity was not going to visit our wounded troops in Germany. That is exactly when I decided NOT to vote for that one. (It makes me sick every time I remember that Berlin trip -of his and how he ignored our wounded troops)…The only thing that he cared about was the his “pretty Berlin speech” …The only thing he cared about was his Big Ego – not America!

International Herald Tribune:
Merkel ally opposes Obama speech in Berlin
The Associated Press
Sunday, July 13, 2008
BERLIN: A conservative ally of Chancellor Angela Merkel said that Barack Obama should not speak at Berlin’s Brandenburg Gate because he played no role in German reunification.
Erwin Huber, chairman of the Bavarian sister party to Merkel Christian Democrats, accused Foreign Minister Frank-Walter Steinmeier of pandering to the U.S. presidential candidate by inviting Obama to speak in the center of Berlin.
Obama’s tentative plans to hold a speech in late July at the Brandenburg Gate, a symbol of German unity, have exposed simmering tensions in the German government, an uneasy alliance between the main conservative and center-left parties.
Merkel and Steinmeier, who are from rival parties, may face off in a federal election next year.
“Obama didn’t do anything for German unification,” Huber told the Welt am Sonntag newspaper. “That’s not a criticism, but as a result there is no reason to grant him such a privilege.”
Huber said American presidents such as Ronald Reagan, who spoke at the Berlin Wall in 1987, and his successor George H.W. Bush, president when the wall was breached in 1989, deserved the credit for their roles in reuniting Germany.
Obama said Saturday that he hoped to resolve concerns expressed by Merkel.
“I want to make sure that my message is heard as opposed to creating a controversy,” Obama said.
“So, you know, our goal is just for me to lay out how I think about the next administration’s role in rebuilding a trans-Atlantic alliance, so I don’t want the venue to be a distraction. What I want to do is just work with folks on the ground to find some place that’s appropriate.”
The German government has denied that Washington put pressure on Merkel to block the proposed Obama speech.
Leading German newspapers, including Bild and Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung, reported that Bush administration officials attending a G-8 summit meeting in Japan last week expressed reservations to the German delegation about Obama’s speaking at the landmark.
“The reports are completely unfounded,” Merkel’s spokesman, Ulrich Wilhelm, said when asked about the reports and a suggestion from Mayor Klaus Wowereit of Berlin that the Bush administration had put pressure on Merkel.
“There were no expectations whatsoever expressed either outright or tacitly in that regard from American President Bush or his staff. It’s pure fiction.”
He said last week that she frowned on any speech at the gate.
Merkel was not happy to see “electioneering” at the gate, calling the idea “odd.” That snub prompted a sharp response from Steinmeier, who said Germany would be honored.
“Steinmeier is just trying to curry favor with Obama,” Huber said.
“He thinks he can gain an advantage by showing his support for Obama early,” he continued. “That’s pretty naive, if you ask me.
“What’s next? Should Republican John McCain come next – should the American campaign be fought out in Germany?”

I find it weird how people who are saying that sarah palin isn’t not a stupid liar is beyond me. I live in anchorage alaska and know she is lying. the tax payers money is paying for the clothes sarah palin is buying and wearing. she is charging the state of alaska for those clothes andplane rides for her whole entire family. everything she says is making tje state of alaska look bad. the only reason why she was voted governor was because we didn’t want the previous governor again. she is not qualified to run a country. she is barley qualified to run a state and she can’t run her own household and stop her 17 year old daughter from getting pregnant. the only thing she has done for the state of alaska was give us extra money on our dividends and gave it to us a month sooner. I think she did that so she would get our electoral votes.
now sen. mccain is just too old to become president.
sen.obama is qualified to become president and he’s not cocky, or saying he one. that’s coming from sarah palin. if it didn’t come out of his mouth then ur the dumb ones to believe it. november 4th will show who won and I pray its obama. atleast he doesn’t have a negative and angry campaign like mccain/palin. its sad when ur own party doesn’t endorse u or vote for u.

Quick question: How much is Sen. Obama spending to fly to HI and back in his customized Boeing 757? Will he repay the DNC or the campaign for his personal usage of the aircraft?
Answer: Brad Blakeman, who was in charge of scheduling for President Bush, says a Boeing 757 costs about $20,000 an hour for fuel, crew, and maintenance. Since a trip to Hawaii entails 10 hours of flying time from Chicago, the total cost for each round-trip comes to about $400,000.
Obama used the Boeing 757 for trips to Hawaii over the summer for a vacation and again last week to see his failing grandmother. Admirable though that visit was, “By Obama using a private jet to go on a purely personal visit to see his grandma, he’s wasting not only energy, but he’s using the money that his supporters have given him for campaign purposes,” Blakeman says. “It’s a purely personal visit paid for with campaign funds.”

I get a sense of creepiness whenever I listen to Campbell Brownose – the witch of CNN – or Keith Olberman that pig with lipstick at MSNBC.
Tabloid news is what brings revenue from adevertising sources. And, the “24-hour-news-for-dummies-networks” compete with each other based on what most American viwers love to watch – tabloid news.
CNN would NOT dear presenting to the rest of the world the “mickey mouse” news that they are presenting to us here. They know better than that…No wonder CNN International is a heck of a lot more serious news source. They do not even want us to have access to CNN International (available to only 6 million households in the US) because they know darn well that we would stop watching CNN-domestic. In that case Jon Clown’s ekhmmm, Jon Klein’s CNN-domestic would go out of business.
And the funny thing is the LIARS blame the cable companies and satellite companies for not making CNN International available to the entire US! That’s OK, I am not complaining…I get both BBC World News and BBC America and that is what I watch most of the time. BBC World News is my favorite. They cover the Presidential election much better – less biased – than CNN, MSNBC, FOX, etc.
Also, I get the news on line from Deutsche Welle, Reuters, BBC, Voice of America, and of course reading the major domestic and foreign newspapers online as well.
Call your cable and satellite companies and ask them to carry BBC World News (not the same as BBC America) or see if you can convince them to carry CNN International (remember CNN is not really making it easy – they do not promote it because “comrade Jon Klein (Clown)” does not like to compete with CNN Int’l.
Well, we as viewers have the power to get them to change their pathetic news coverage. Tune them out – get your news on line or PBS.
Better yet – bombard them with letters and phone calls, and make sure you contact their major advertisers. Tell their advertisers that you will stop bying their products if they continue to do business with ABC, CNN, MSNBC etc.
I am a member of an organization for children with disabilities. ABC, CNN, MSNBC and the rest of the sexist media clowns will be crying pretty soon (after election is over) due to the boycotting by their advertisers whom we are contacting to protest Palins’ treatment regarding her family, her child Trigg, etc.

ABC News Did Not Report This:
Obama’s Hawaii Trips Cost More Than Palin’s Clothes
Sunday, October 26, 2008 3:21 PM
By: Ronald Kess
Barack Obama’s trips to Hawaii on a chartered Boeing 757 each cost more than twice the price of Sarah Palin’s new clothes.
Brad Blakeman, who was in charge of scheduling for President Bush, says a Boeing 757 costs about $20,000 an hour for fuel, crew, and maintenance. Since a trip to Hawaii entails 10 hours of flying time from Chicago, the total cost for each round-trip comes to about $400,000.
Obama used the Boeing 757 for trips to Hawaii over the summer for a vacation and again last week to see his failing grandmother. Admirable though that visit was, “By Obama using a private jet to go on a purely personal visit to see his grandma, he’s wasting not only energy, but he’s using the money that his supporters have given him for campaign purposes,” Blakeman says. “It’s a purely personal visit paid for with campaign funds.”
On the other hand, the media are highlighting the Republican National Committee’s purchase of $150,000 in clothes for Palin, even though the dresses will be donated to charities. The New York Times played the story on page one.
“They’re picking on Palin, who was provided a wardrobe by the RNC strictly for political purposes, and it was always intended that these garments would be then given to charity,” Blakeman says. “So there’s a benefit that’s going to charity, not a benefit that Palin will have after the election. There was a need for it because she’s a modest person who didn’t have an extensive wardrobe to do 24/7 campaigning.”
To pick on Palin without going after Obama’s plane trips is “an absolute journalistic abuse,” Blakeman says. “This is the same plane that he took to Hawaii when he went on vacation. In the summertime, when gas was soaring and Americans were having to pinch their pennies, this guy gets on his campaign plane and goes to Hawaii on vacation. He did a couple campaign stops in a state that is not a swing state and is a guaranteed win for Obama. That was clearly to cover the tracks of this vacation.”
Blakeman notes that at the height of the gasoline price surge, Obama suggested that Americans check their vehicle’s tire pressure as a way of conserving fuel.
“I wonder if he checked the tires on his jumbo jet before taking off for a purely personal visit?” Blakeman says. “The way he spends campaign money is a direct reflection of how he will spend ours. He could have easily flown commercial or taken a much smaller corporate aircraft that would cost a fraction of a 757.”
Ironically, it was Palin as governor who saved money for Alaskans by selling the state’s jet and instead flying commercial.
Kellyanne Conway, one of the most respected Republican pollsters, says the media’s attack on Palin’s clothes is an example of elitist snobbery or “classism.” Noting the media’s treatment of her, “I can’t believe her own family still approves of her, after the unprecedented, personal and relentless attacks that this woman has undergone,” Conway says.
Besides attacks on Palin over her clothes, Conway cites snide remarks about “the way she speaks, her husband’s lack of a college degree, the barefoot and pregnant 17-year-old daughter, you know who hunts moose anyway? The classism is so raw and unapologetic, so unconsidered and so undisguised.”

Hmmm, perhaps the trip to Hawaii was NOT so “personal”
Perhaps the campaign spent $400,000 dollars (one way) so Obama can get his “birth caertificate” case taken care off!
Yeah, I hope he and his grandma are always in good health but the trip to Hawaii is “suspicious”
How much money did he cost the American tax-payers to foot the bill for Secret Service etc for Obama’s trip to Hawaii?
Can you imagine if McCain Palin had pulled something like this? The media clowns worry about Palin’s children travelling with her and now we have The Audacity travelling who is not even President yet travelling to Hawaii on both campaign money as well as taxpayers money – (Secret Service) on top pf the cost for the aircraft/fuel etc. And, don’t they use any cars in Hawaii? Who is paying for them (motorcades, etc).

Fools. It’s to demoralize the opponent and to dupe the public into thinking Obama has a real chance, which he doesn’t.
The polls are bogus: 80% hang up rate this year and dems and minorities are being over-sampled.
Crowds: The get bussed in and the Obama camp and Obama-media lie about the numbers. On Sunday, the Obama camp estimated 100,000 crowd. An investigative blogger interviewed many gov. officials, cops, and campus security: Only 40,000 estimate.
Pocket endorsements are bull. Newspaper endorsements are bull as well–bought off.
Huge newly registered dem #’s: bull, ACORN lies. McCain is ahead in early voting.
MSM is lying to people; polls have always showed a dem winning by a lot and almost always wrong.
PUMA effect, Bradley Effect, Third Party liberal Effect, Racist effect, and the Silent Majority will win.
If Obama fights the election results, we will know he is copying Raila Odinga and we will NOT ALLOW IT HERE.

The McCain-Palin ticket will go down in history as one of the worst-run ever.
So Hasselbeck goes from dismissing the issue about the obscene amount of money the RNC has spent on Palin’s campaing clothes to highlighting the fact the Palin was wearing a flag pin. Wow. I wonder if she also noticed that in at least 2 of the 3 presidential debates, Obama wore the U.S. flag on his suit lapel but McCain didn’t. And this is the snarky stuff they choose to talk about at campaign rallies.

Update America:
The Greatest Show On Earth!
Come One! Come All!
There are tricks, deceptions and misdirection to fool you all!
You we be thrilled by the oratory of empty words and empty promises!
Obama’s presidential campaign that is full of tricks, deceptions, and misdirections!
In Ring Number 1: You be thrilled by the lies created by the Democrats. You will be thrilled to know how they sat on their butts for the past two years and did nothing with Obama leading the way. You will be thrilled at the magic of the Democrats to cause a worldwide financial $10,000,000,000 melt down.
In Ring Number 2: You will be thrilled at seeing Obama’s membership in a church that preaches anti-American policies and a church that has stronger ties to Africa than to America.
In Ring Number 3: You will see the slight of hand of Obama as he makes all-important information about his past disappear. You will be amazed at the disappearance of his birth records and his birth certificate, the disappearance of his connection to money and Rezko’s slum housing in Obama’s 13th district at the cost of $500,000,000 and the disappearance of his connection to known unrepentant terrorists Ayers.
In Ring Number 4: You will see the reasons quoted by past President Ronald Reagan about the kind of destructive government that will be caused by the Democrats and Obama.
Yes, there is a need for four rings because Obama has too many unknowns in his life.

Update America:
Obama’s Hawaii Trips Cost More Than Palin’s Clothes
Sunday, October 26, 2008 3:21 PM
By: Ronald Kess
Barack Obama’s trips to Hawaii on a chartered Boeing 757 each cost more than twice the price of Sarah Palin’s new clothes.
Brad Blakeman, who was in charge of scheduling for President Bush, says a Boeing 757 costs about $20,000 an hour for fuel, crew, and maintenance. Since a trip to Hawaii entails 10 hours of flying time from Chicago, the total cost for each round-trip comes to about $400,000.
Obama used the Boeing 757 for trips to Hawaii over the summer for a vacation and again last week to see his failing grandmother. Admirable though that visit was, “By Obama using a private jet to go on a purely personal visit to see his grandma, he’s wasting not only energy, but he’s using the money that his supporters have given him for campaign purposes,” Blakeman says. “It’s a purely personal visit paid for with campaign funds.”
On the other hand, the media are highlighting the Republican National Committee’s purchase of $150,000 in clothes for Palin, even though the dresses will be donated to charities. The New York Times played the story on page one.
“They’re picking on Palin, who was provided a wardrobe by the RNC strictly for political purposes, and it was always intended that these garments would be then given to charity,” Blakeman says. “So there’s a benefit that’s going to charity, not a benefit that Palin will have after the election. There was a need for it because she’s a modest person who didn’t have an extensive wardrobe to do 24/7 campaigning.”
To pick on Palin without going after Obama’s plane trips is “an absolute journalistic abuse,” Blakeman says. “This is the same plane that he took to Hawaii when he went on vacation. In the summertime, when gas was soaring and Americans were having to pinch their pennies, this guy gets on his campaign plane and goes to Hawaii on vacation. He did a couple campaign stops in a state that is not a swing state and is a guaranteed win for Obama. That was clearly to cover the tracks of this vacation.”
Blakeman notes that at the height of the gasoline price surge, Obama suggested that Americans check their vehicle’s tire pressure as a way of conserving fuel.
“I wonder if he checked the tires on his jumbo jet before taking off for a purely personal visit?” Blakeman says. “The way he spends campaign money is a direct reflection of how he will spend ours. He could have easily flown commercial or taken a much smaller corporate aircraft that would cost a fraction of a 757.”
Ironically, it was Palin as governor who saved money for Alaskans by selling the state’s jet and instead flying commercial.
Kellyanne Conway, one of the most respected Republican pollsters, says the media’s attack on Palin’s clothes is an example of elitist snobbery or “classism.” Noting the media’s treatment of her, “I can’t believe her own family still approves of her, after the unprecedented, personal and relentless attacks that this woman has undergone,” Conway says.
Besides attacks on Palin over her clothes, Conway cites snide remarks about “the way she speaks, her husband’s lack of a college degree, the barefoot and pregnant 17-year-old daughter, you know who hunts moose anyway? The classism is so raw and unapologetic, so unconsidered and so undisguised.”

I don’t think anyone that shops at a consignment shop is wealthy. It appears Palin has a better understanding of the average woman than the Obama campaign wants to admit. If she is shopping in a consignment store then she obviously has to be very careful with the family money;it shows her priorities are in the right place and she is fiscally responsible.

It is unfortunate that many voters are not aware of Obama’s record and votes in the Senate, or his active collaboration with ACORN and other groups. It seems the voters are bent to the far left, and comfortable trying to elect a socialist. What a sad day for our republic. Democrat voters were more interested in attacking Palin and ignoring the total lack of credible experience of Senator Obama for the Presidency and yet protest too much the executive experience and energy experience of one Governor Palin. It is most unfortunate that experience, judgment, character, patriotism and basic support of low taxes and capitalism by Senator McCain is not enough for so many misled and misinformed voters. If they prevail, we will all pay the price, and there will be a price to be paid. It is called socialism.

Sarah Palin – I no longer believe anything she says. Originally I was excited when I heard a woman had been selected. Immediately started my research on her in Alaska. I reviewed her whole political life, stances she had taken, how she managed, was she a prudent financial manager. Discovered the legislative investigation. Then I found the whole police investigation of her brother in law she attempted to fire. The nasty divorce of her sister and her evident strong involvement. She appears to have practiced “cronyism” placing friends in her posts with little experience, donors received special contracts with bids written to favor those she supported. Donors to her receive government subsidized loans. She manages in secrecy, and does not incorporate advice of experts when decisions are made.
My excitement turned to alarm!!! This lady is a “wolf in sheeps clothing.” She lied in Alaska and continued through whole presidential race now. Recently she was just found to have abused her power as Governor of Alaska. Questions are now arising on her new house that was built at same time the new sports complex in Wasilla, Alaska was being built. Contractor of complex had a lien on their house. Questions if they received free building materials, free labor, etc. Questions about the actual lot house was built on. She is friends of Ted Stevens now being tried. Seems he accepted free remodels for his house. FBI has indicted 11 Republicans for political corruption. Abuse is high in Alaska. FBI is still there. This small state of 267,000 residents has had many problems with crooked politician practices.
Sarah Palin list of problems go on and on!!
Sarah Palin should never be supported. Her beauty and excellent speech do not hide the truth that she does not manage with honesty and integrity and sound business skills. Just the opposite – she demonstrates glaring vindictiveness towards those who oppose her.

In interviews, Mr. Obama was modest and careful. (In a rare slip, he told The Associated Press: “I’m not interested in the suburbs. The suburbs bore me.”)
Translation: Obama doesn’t care about the middle class or white people except to take their income and redistibute it.
No wonder Obama refuses to release his records. The real Obama comes through in these rare slip ups

Republican Sarah Palin is an energetic but inexperienced outsider who stood up to her ethically challenged party leaders. Independent Andrew Halcro is a maverick former legislator who isn’t afraid to say what’s politically unpopular. Democrat Tony Knowles is a former two-term governor who ran a capable, clean administration during lean economic times”

If people thought Joe the Plumber was some kind of stumble for Barack Obama, a rediscovered interview from 2001 should dispel any doubts about Barack Obama’s redistributionism. Seven years ago, Obama told Chicago Public Radio that the Warren Court was too conservative and missed its opportunity to redistribute wealth on a much grander scale. In fact, Obama wanted them to break the Constitution and reorder American society far outside of what the founders intended.
“If you look at the victories and failures of the civil rights movement and its litigation strategy in the court. I think where it succeeded was to invest formal rights in previously dispossessed people, so that now I would have the right to vote. I would now be able to sit at the lunch counter and order as long as I could pay for it I’d be o.k. But, the Supreme Court never ventured into the issues of redistribution of wealth, and of more basic issues such as political and economic justice in society.
To that extent, as radical as I think people try to characterize the Warren Court, it wasn’t that radical. It didn’t break free from the essential constraints that were placed by the founding fathers in the Constitution, at least as its been interpreted and Warren Court interpreted in the same way, that generally the Constitution is a charter of negative liberties. Says what the states can’t do to you. Says what the Federal government can’t do to you, but doesn’t say what the Federal government or State government must do on your behalf, and that hasn’t shifted and one of the, I think, tragedies of the civil rights movement was, um, because the civil rights movement became so court focused I think there was a tendency to lose track of the political and community organizing and activities on the ground that are able to put together the actual coalition of powers through which you bring about redistributive change. In some ways we still suffer from that.
I’m not optimistic about bringing about major redistributive change through the courts. You know, the institution just isn’t structured that way.”
One more clarifying thought is in order. Barack Obama complains that the Constitution is a “charter of negative liberties”. That’s because the Constitution was intended as a limiting document, to curtail the power of the federal government vis-a-vis the states and the individual. The founders intended at the time to limit the reach of the federal government, and built the Constitution accordingly.
Barack Obama wants to reverse that entirely. And that’s radical change you’d better believe in, or else.

Illinois State Senator Barack Obama voted 4 times against laws to protect babies who survive abortions. Meanwhile, U.S. Senators voted 98-0 for Born Alive Infant Protections. Senator Obama says deciding when babies get human rights is ABOVE HIS PAY GRADE. Tell him abortion survivors deserve legal protections too.
Senator Obama has attempted to cover up his abysmal voting record, saying that there were already protections in IL state law for babies born alive after abortions. However, existing laws had loopholes and the IL Attorney General at the time determined the practice of abandoning infants born alive during late-term abortions was NOT COVERED by the law.
Obama had several chances to close that loophole in IL law and give babies the necessary medical care they need to survive after a failed abortion, but he didn’t do it. In fact Obama voted against bills to close the loophole.
What kind of President would Obama be if he refuses to give infants basic human rights?
What kind of President? In terms of abortion—the most radical President in American history. He has already told Planned Parenthood that one of his top priorities in his administration will be signing the Freedom of Choice Act, which will essentially federalize all aspects of the abortion issue. It will ELIMINATE any restrictions at the state level, even those that have survived the scrutiny of the Supreme Court. FOCA will also repeal the Hyde Amendment and restart federal FUNDING for abortions.
Obama likes to speak in soothing tones about abortion, claiming that “no one is pro-abortion” while promising radical change on behalf of the abortion industry — which is what Planned Parenthood represents and to a large extent comprises. His record shows how radical he is. While the Illinois AG told the legislature that the existing law could not be enforced, Obama actively blocked efforts to rewrite it so that abortionists could not simply stuff living infants into closets for them to die from neglect.

Why doesn’t everyone visit that and compare facts instead of spreading the hate.
Why can’t we all agree to disagree as there are things we don’t like personally about each candidate and things we believe to be true about each candidate despite evidence to the contrary.
To use a quaint term, we’ve all been “sipping or drinking the kool-aid”.
No matter who wins, as a nation, we have a enormous struggle ahead of us. No matter what any candidate says they will do, what they will actually be able to do once they get in office is a completely different story. That should be one thing we can all agree on.

Just to refresh your memory American fellows…
No hand over heart from Obama during national anthem
David Edwards and Jason Rhyne
Monday October 22, 2007
Weeks after coming under fire for his refusal to wear an American flag pin, Democratic presidential contender Sen. Barack Obama is again facing questions about his patriotism from some conservative blogs — this time for apparently failing to put his hand over his heart during a rendition of the national anthem at an Iowa campaign event.
A video of the event in question, obtained by ABC News, shows Obama with his hands firmly clasped in front of him during the song. Meanwhile, rival Democratic candidates Gov. Bill Richardson (D-AZ) and Sen. Hillary Clinton (D-NY) strike a traditional anthem pose beside him, holding their right hands over their hearts.
The conservative NewsBusters media watchdog group first reported on the story, linking to a Time Magazine photo of Obama at the event. “Does [Obama] perhaps believe that, like wearing the flag pin, the hand on the heart isn’t “true patriotism?” asked the site’s Mark Finkelstein.
The episode took place during a Sept. 16 steak fry hosted by Sen. Tom Harkin (D-IA) in Indianola, Iowa.
The following video is from ABC.com, broadcast on October 22, 2007.

No Natasha, the answer is equal tariffs, not destroying the unions that helped the American worker to make a decent living during the industrialization of our nation. If you don’t learn from history, you are doomed to repeat it.
“The real reasons for the large corporations moving out of America and moving to Canada, Mexico and the Far East: Unions winning big wage and benefit packages and American companies paying high taxes. Big business needs to be competitive with the rest of the world. When unions call for big wage increases and big benefit packages, America can NOT compete with the rest of the world.

Wow! Alright! Finally a paper is endorsing McShame. Take that Obama, McShame finally has a paper rooting for him, and it is in a red state too. He must be proud of that. Things are looking up. Did you see where the Anchorage newspaper, from the state that Palin is from is backing……. oh, the are picking Obama too. What’s up with that???
President Obama! Get used to it!

Natasha,
You keep calling Obama a Marxist and a Communist and have directed people here to a video that expresses concern over his middle name, Hussein.
As a McCain supporter, I thank you for your efforts. But I must also request that you withdraw your name from these boards and refrain from posting elsewhere. Or, for that matter, from sending in contributions to Senator McCain’s campaign under your name.
Because you see Natasha, YOUR name is a Russian name. Which, of course, makes it a Communist name. Which of course makes it a deeply suspicious anti-American name. It calls into suspicion your loyalty to the Republican Party, but most of all, to the United States of America.
Can you tell me, Natasha, WHY your parents decided to have you share a name with literally millions of plain, roundish, moon-faced, stroganoff-eating, peasant Bolsheviks? Why did your parents hate America so much as to do that? And isn’t it true that your last name is Lenin? Or maybe Krushev? Or how about Smirnoff? Admit it, they were HAPPY when Krushev hammered his shoe on the table at the United Nations and told everyone in this wonderful country, “We will bury you!”
Why do YOU hate America so much to keep these names, names that only that Stalin would love?
And if by chance they’re only nom de plumes, why would YOU pick some with Communist overtones? What does this say about your psyche, and your deep-seated subconscious hostility toward America and Americans?
But given your take on Obama’s “Hussein” name, I’m sure you understand my concern, and I’m sure that you’re patriot enough–at least on the surface (comrade)–to do the right thing and not associate John McCain’s good American name with your unpatriotic, subversive, Communistic one.
Thank you, and God Bless America.

The republicans keep repeating the same lies about Obama – this business of hin “measuring the White House for drapes” being amon them.
Their lies, exaggerations and lack of a coherent platform are the reason that Obama will indeed get those drapes – and it’ll be curtains for them.

Hey Missy, we all know what the last 8 years have been liked, so we the American People that care about the United States do fact checking we do not rely on peoples mouths moving. Then the Repubs want to put someone like Palin in our faces and act like hey if we put a woman on the ticket we will get the woman vote. You have so many flip flops on Palin, that Saturday night live has enough material to last a long time. First the Bridge to no where, she ran on it to be governor, then she was agaist it. Then you have the Plane on E-Bay, which in reality did not sell on E-Bay, Palin had to Hire a broker that sold it for a loss of 4 million. Then you have the AIP that her hubby belonged to, these people that contacted IRAN for $$$ Help to denounce the United States of America at a UN meeting. Or how about the 70% cut to the Special Olympics, but now she is for special need Kids. How about the Bid to build that natural gas pipeline, which was rigged to give the Canada company the bid all along, Palin’s advisor was contracted to this same company. There is more just waiting to come out.

Sarah Palin does not seem to have any problem telling lies, or abusing power. Her lack of knowledge about the exact role of the VP is astounding.

Is Obama a Natural Born Citizen?
By Colonel Bob Pappas, USMC, Retired
October 26,2008
Article II, U.S. Constitution states, “No Person except a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President; neither shall any Person be eligible to that Office who shall not have attained to the Age of thirty five Years, and been fourteen Years a Resident within the United States.”
The issue is so fundamental that it defies reason that any patriotic American would not want to clarify a candidate’s status before an election. If there were no problems in Obama’s case it would not rise to significance, but he and his attorney’s have maneuvered the Court to rule in their favor, albeit as a legal maneuver not as a matter of substance. U.S. District Judge R. Barclay Surrick ruled that a suit brought by Phillip J. Berg, a Pennsylvania attorney, was, “too vague and its effects too attenuated to confer standing on any and all voters,” and dismissed the case for lack of “Standing.” But it will only delay, not stop the inevitable. Click here to see.
In my opinion, now that the Judge has dismissed the case, others, perhaps the Attorney General, or even those who support Obama will pursue it. In the supporters’ instance it would be to prove that he is eligible, and in the Constitutionalists’ instance it will be to clarify whether or not Obama is eligible to be President. The entire matter could be resolved if the State of Hawaii produced the original copy of Obama’s birth certificate, or if Obama has one, if he would produce it; not the one posted on his website because it is by expert accounts, a fake. See the posting on Obama’s website Click Here
And compare it to the following which is an authentic birth certificate from the State of Hawaii. It was copied from an article in NewsMax.com titled, “Obama Refuses to Answer Birth Certificate Lawsuit.”
The one above is authentic, so where does that leave Obama? The obvious answer is that it leaves him in a hoax or another lie, and this one disqualifies him to be President.
This has already been, and may prove to be an even more interesting election, because if Obama should win the electoral votes to become President, which he won’t, and between the election and inauguration he is found to be ineligible, that would put the entire matter into a cocked hat. Would Biden automatically “ascend,” or would Hillary be “crowned?” Or, would the entire matter be back to the Supreme Court and the entire Democrat Party process be invalidated, and the election handed to Senator McCain by default? Wouldn’t the left love that?
Judge Surrick’s dismissal of the case raises the question of who or what entity would have standing to bring a suit? Having read Berg’s complaint one is astonished at the poor legal writing skills, but that aside the case is intriguing. Read, my previous article on this subject.
In the world of legal justice in the contemporary United States, it evidently matters not that there is a legitimate question about Obama’s citizenship status, because in the legal world everything hinges on whether or not one has “standing” to bring suit. If an American Citizen who is subject to the Constitution, brings a suit so fundamental to the heart of the elective process about the qualifications of a Candidate for the Presidency, does not have “standing,” no person can have standing given the wording of Judge Surrick’s ruling, and that portends a fight potentially of a different sort.
If the ruling means that only another candidate for the Presidency can bring suit, then one would think that a man of integrity would do it, but in this instance that man might just be a woman.
“John McCain is a giant of a man, a man of integrity, a man of valor, and a man of experience; a man who endured the unendurable, was tried in the crucible and emerged an authentic American patriot and hero. He may not be an eloquent speaker, he may not have the most charismatic personality, and, although John McCain has manifest his human failures along the way, I will support him, I will work for him, I will vote for him and I will salute him in victory!”
Semper Fidelis

“Carlyonsue” whines: “You don’t know me at all! The fact is carlyonsue is the name that my mother gave me at my birth!”
Lying commie scum. No it isn’t. Your real name is Carly and you spend your time lying on top of Sue. Thus, “Carlyonsue.” We get it. Lesbian imagery. Very clever.
She says, “It is on my birth certificate! It has nothing at all to do with homosexuality!”
First, your birth certificate isn’t even legal in the United States. Second, it has EVERYTHING to do with homosexuality. See the above.
Carlyonsue further says, “That is just a figment of your filthy demented imagination! Also for your information I am straight! I have never slept with a woman in my life and I have absolutely no desire to! I am indeed a registered Republican. I’ve voted Republican for over 30 years! I am also a born again Christian.

Suuuuuure! Methinks you doth protest too much on all counts!
She says, “I don’t even believe that a woman should have an abortion even in cases of rape or incest!”

I agree wholeheartedly with Sarah Palin in that Obama should delay his coronation! I think him to be extremely arrogant to think that just because he is a few points ahead in the “polls” that he will be president!
I look at the picture of Obama on the campain trail, Hillary standing behind him, while the Pledge of Allegiance is being said. Hillary and all other people on the stage are reciting the Pledge, and have their hands on their hearts…showing respect. Obama? Stands silent, mouth still, and hands gently folded in front of him. WHAT???? And HE wants my vote?
Then there is his campain logo….the blue rainbow over the red and white striped “road”. He tore apart our flag and redesigned it for himself. This happened early on in his campaign and he was so proud to show it off on his campaign aircraft….on his banners. If he is willing to complete redesign the flag to suit himself and his campaign, can you imagine what he wants to redesign in this country? Our government? Will he redesign it so far away from what our founding fathers invisioned and fought so very hard to establish and protect? Frightening!
Then there are his comments regarding our active military. He has discounted their efforts many many times which brings back memories and hauntings of protesters from the Vietnam era. My son volunteered and is presently serving in the United States Navy aboard an aircraft carrier that is forward deployed. When I hear Obama’s comments about our military men and women and how their efforts are “fruitless and without hope”, I want to explode! He evidently is NOT getting the true reports from the war areas, or other areas in the world where our military is stationed. He evidently doesn’t know that our military is now a strong presence in unstable areas of conflict. Sarah Palin and John McCain both have children serving in the military. John McCain knows first hand the sacrifice of military service. Until Obama has “been there, done that” I think he has NO right to condemn something that he evidently knows little to nothing about!
And this Obama wants to sit down and “talk” to the leaders in these militant, conflicted countries to try and discuss and come to some resolution of the ongoing conflicts in these regions. Does that mean that he wants to sit and “talk” to Osama Bin Laden? The man who masterminded the murder of thousands of people in 2001?
People need to realize that an Obama presidency brings socialism, and military shame. It will bring further financial deteriation. No security.
I agree with you Governor Palin—Obama put your crown away….your celebration is entirely too premature and inappropriate. It will never happen!
I am frightened that if Obama is voted president that life as we know it in the United States of America will NEVER be the same….and not for the better!
God Bless America and please keep us from harm!

$150,000 for clothes? I would bet that $10,000 would buy her 10 outfits, and all the trimmings.
And regardless of whether she or the repub party paid for it, I would ask the average middle class American what they budget for clothes in a year. Bet $5000 does it for 95% of the people.
But the prize must seem well worth it to Ms Palin. Hey, they might just resurrect the Alaska bridge to nowhere. Wasn’t it $323,000,000 if I remember correctly, to connect two Islands that between them have about 200 residents.
Talk about pork. Maybe the residents of Alaska should have paid for it with their own money, all that oil money that runs a state without an income or sales tax.
Or do you think it was fair that the rest of the nation should pay.
And Ms Palin didn’t get off the “build the bridge bandwagon”, until it was publically exposed.
Got to admit she knows how to get things started, probably with the help of convicted on all counts Senator Ted Stevens of Alaska.
