| Before You Vote… (Barack Obama and his allies in the press have buried these facts and are hoping they stay buried.) |
| 10.29.08 (4:39 pm) [edit] |

THE ECONOMY Barack Obama has been blaming the current economic crisis on Bush, yet he fails to identify even one specific policy that can rationally be linked to this crisis.[1] Likewise, the New York Times in their endorsement of Obama laid the blame at the feet of Ronald Reagan.[2] If this is so, why don’t they detail the specific causes and effects? Because the hard reality is that the situation can be directly traced to a law passed in the Carter era, regulations imposed by Clinton, and Democratic cronyism at Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac that incentivized and even forced banks to make high risk loans to people who could not afford them.[3] To add fuel to this economic fire, the mainstream media, who have donated money to Obama at a rate of 20 to 1 over McCain,[4] have done immeasurable harm to the economy by stoking fear.[5] TAX INCREASES Just this year ABC News reported that Obama supported “hundreds of tax increases” in the Illinois Senate.[6] His promise that he will provide a tax cut to 95% of Americans is misleading and mathematically impossible.[7] Remember, Obama also promised he would use public financing for his campaign, and then broke his word without blinking an eye.[8] How many times can people be hoodwinked before they learn this simple lesson? You cannot trust what politicians SAY. You can only observe what they DO. Speaking of actions versus words, despite Obama’s attempts to portray himself as a moderate, the National Journal looked at 99 key votes in the U.S. Senate during 2007 and found that Obama had the most liberal voting record in the Senate.[9] This is the same Senate inhabited by Ted Kennedy, Diane Feinstein and Bernie Saunders, the only self-avowed Socialist in this body.[10] To vote to the left of these people requires a radically liberal agenda. RADICAL INNER CIRCLE Obama’s radicalism goes far beyond his voting record. In his book “Dreams from My Father,” Obama wrote that he chose his friends “carefully” in college. Who were these friends? In his own words, this included “Marxist professors.” [11] In a 2004 interview with the Chicago Sun-Times, Obama identified three people by name as his spiritual mentors.[12] The first, Jeremiah Wright, was Obama’s “close confidant,” pastor of twenty years, and the person who married him and baptized his daughters.[13] By now, most everyone has seen videos of Wright preaching that the U.S. government invented AIDS to exterminate black people, referring to our country as the U.S. of KKKA [Ku Klux Klan America], and repeatedly shouting, “G-d damn America!” [14] Despite his close friendship with Wright and the fact that he stated in the 2004 interview that he was a regular attendee at the church, Obama claimed he never heard Wright say these words and would have probably confronted him if he did.[15] To swallow this requires willful gullibility. These comments were made on multiple occasions before large audiences who enthusiastically applauded his every word. If your pastor was saying such things, do you think you would have heard about it even if you happened to miss church every time he did so? In fact, Obama’s book, “The Audacity of Hope,” is named after a sermon preached by Wright in which he declared that “white folks’ greed runs a world in need.” [16] The second mentor he identified was the Reverend Michael Pfleger, who Obama said helps him keep his “moral compass” set.[17] This year, from the pulpit of Obama’s church, Pfleger declared that “we must be honest enough to expose white entitlement and supremacy…” He then proceeded to mock Hillary Clinton by crying and putting these words into her mouth: “I’m white! I’m entitled! There’s a black man stealing my show!” [18] The third mentor, Reverend James Meeks, starred in a radio commercial for Obama and was visited by Obama the night after his victory in the U.S. Senate primary.[19] This is the same James Meeks, who from the pulpit of his church, declared, “You got some preachers that are house n—gers! You got some elected officials that are house n—gers! … they're gonna fight you to protect that white man!” [20] These three people were explicitly identified by Obama as part of his religious inner circle only four years ago. It strains credulity to believe he was not aware of and did not share their views. Inner circles are made for this reason. ABORTION No matter where you stand on this issue, it used to be a safe assumption that anyone short of Stalin or Hitler drew a line as to where innocent life should be protected by law. Obama refuses to. In his own words, “It’s above my pay grade.” [21] The truth is that he just doesn’t want to say what his voting record clearly shows. Obama voted against a bill requiring that babies born alive as a result of an abortion are treated as a “person.” His oft-repeated excuse that the bill would have undermined Roe v. Wade is deceitful, as the bill specifically stated that it did not apply under any circumstance except when a baby was “born alive.” [22] His other justification for this vote is equally deceitful. He states that there was already a law that required providing lifesaving treatment,[23] but neglects to mention that this law was unenforceable because it ultimately left all judgment in the hands of the abortionist. This is shown by the text of the law, which is laden with the word “judgment,” [24] and more importantly, by the live birth atrocities that were taking place in Illinois at the time. Two registered nurses described these sickening events in testimony before Congress long before Obama was a national figure.[25] The bill Obama voted against was intended to stop these events, and as such, it contained a simple and straightforward definition of what it means to be “born alive.” [26] Thus, the notion that he voted against this bill because it was redundant with existing law has no objective basis in reality. In concurrence with this, Obama voted against a ban on partial birth abortion and promised Planned Parenthood that the “first thing” he would do as President is sign an act that overturns the current law banning this brutal procedure.[27] His excuse that such bans must have an exception for a woman’s “life” and “health” rings hollow.[28] The law already has an exception for a woman’s life,[29] and what Obama fails to reveal is that the word “health” can mean practically anything. As spelled out in Roe v. Wade, it even includes the “stigma of unwed motherhood” and the “distress” “associated with the unwanted child.” [30] In reality, it doesn’t matter what Obama tells the public about his stance on this issue because of the five Supreme Court judges who ruled to uphold the law banning partial birth abortions, Obama voted against the nomination of two of them and identified two of the others as judges he would not have nominated.[31] These are the same judges who ruled that American citizens have an individual right to keep to bear arms.[32] Both of these decisions were decided by a tight 5-4 margin, and if Obama has the chance to replace only a single judge in the majority with one of his nominees, the results will be reversed. If you believe in the right to life or the right to defend yourself, know that in all probability these rights will not be honored by the vast majority of judges that Obama would appoint. Perhaps worse than all this, Obama voted against and opposes laws that require parents be notified when abortions are performed on their daughters.[33] Thus, if Obama gets his way, anyone (including a rapist as occurred in Obama’s home state) can take your 14 year-old daughter for an abortion and you will never even know about it.[34] CORRUPTION AND FRAUD Obama’s campaign has been awash in illegal donations, including those from foreign sources. In fact, his campaign weakened fraud protection measures to the point where they accepted plainly suspect donations from the likes of “Bart Simpson,” “Daffy Duck” and “King Kong.” This, however, is not the worst of it — more than a third of Obama’s war chest comes from donors he refuses to identify.[35] Also, despite Obama’s claim that he rejects corrupt, insider politics of Washington, he has been caught red-handed funneling taxpayer money to his political operatives.[36] The cartoon celebrities donating to Obama have also been registering to vote. ACORN, a leftist organization of community organizers has submitted untold thousands of voter registration forms that are clearly fraudulent. The number of registered voters in at least one area where this group operates exceeds the voting age population. Documented cases of fraud include registered dead people, numerous voter registration forms in the same handwriting, voter addresses that correspond to vacant lots, and multiple registration forms with names appearing in the same order as a Philadelphia area phone book.[37] In the most recent debate, Obama shamelessly lied when he stated that his “only involvement” with ACORN was a lawsuit in which he represented them. Furthermore, he shook his head in denial when McCain correctly noted that Obama’s campaign paid $832,000 to this organization.[38] That this occurred is an undeniable fact.[39] Moreover, Obama’s campaign originally mislabeled the money and later filed an amendment to correct the record.[40] Most disturbingly, a 2004 article written by a Chicago ACORN leader reveals that Obama ran their “leadership training session” on “power.” [41] In concurrence with this, a 1995 article states: “Obama continues his organizing work largely through classes for future leaders identified by ACORN and the Centers for New Horizons on the south side.” [42] The Obama campaign has stated they are “committed to protecting the integrity of the voting process,” but this is pure propaganda. Obama has been a consistent voice against requiring voters to present any form of identification when they vote.[43] In fact, the Democratic Party platform specifically states they “oppose laws that require identification in order to vote or register to vote…” [44] INEXPERIENCE Despite the media’s savaging of Sarah Palin for an alleged lack of experience, the fact remains that Obama has far less. See this entertaining video of Newt Gingrich embarrassing a reporter who asserted Palin’s resume is thin: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WC8J2DbcxtQ" title="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WC8J2DbcxtQ" target="_blank"http://www.youtube.com/watch?... Newt is clearly partisan, so listen instead to Obama’s running mate Joe Biden, who little more than a year ago stated that Obama was not yet qualified to be president and that “the presidency is not something that lends itself to on the job training.” Biden also stated he would be “honored” to serve with John McCain and that the country would be “well served” with McCain as President. Don’t believe it? See it with your own eyes: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N3VBAbqjhvA&a mp" title="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N3VBAbqjhvA&a mp" target="_blank"http://www.youtube.com/watch?...;feature=related

Keep whining. I don't know if Obama will win, but I really hope he does just so you justify posting utter bullshit for four more years. I'd hate for you to have to do something constructive.

What's wrong with you do you think the more you stirr old feces the worse it stinks. Your allegations are nothing more than old partisan stuff that has been printed previously by the right wing fanatics. and you have the audacity to print this stuff as facts, is lying a pathology with you.

Reply to: thoolou What we are wishing for can't be near as bad as what we trying to get rid of and what we are trying to prevent.
