He is also a charlatan and, by his own willful associaitions of long standing with the likes of Bill Ayers and Jeremiah Wright, a militant anti-American.

More ties to the radical left have surfaced in Barack Obama's past. The latest stem from his involvement with the activist group, ACORN...
ACORN...is the nation’s largest community organization of low- and moderate-income families, working together for social justice and stronger communities.
Obama was a member of ACORN and taught leadership conferences for the group while working for Miner, Barnhill & Galland... Obama actively sought and received the endorsement by ACORN for his local campaigns. He has now done the same in his bid for the USA presidency...
So what is ACORN all about?
In a Spring 2003 article for City Journal, titled, ACORN’s Nutty Regime for Cities, Sol Stern reported on the organization:
If you thought the New Left was dead in America, think again. Walk through just about any of the nation’s inner cities, and you’re likely to find an office of ACORN, bustling with young people working 12-hour days to “organize the poor” and bring about “social change.” The largest radical group in the country, ACORN has 120,000 dues-paying members, chapters in 700 poor neighborhoods in 50 cities, and 30 years’ experience...
[ACORN]promotes a 1960s-bred agenda of anti-capitalism, central planning, victimology, and government handouts to the poor....
ACORN’s bedrock assumption remains the ultra-Left’s familiar anti-capitalist redistributionism. “We are the majority, forged from all the minorities,” reads the group’s “People’s Platform,”...“We will continue our fight . . . until we have shared the wealth, until we have won our freedom . . . . "
At times, ACORN opts for undisguised authoritarian socialism, as when it proposes that “large companies which desire to leave the community” be forced to obtain “an exit visa from the community board signifying that the company has adequately compensated all its employees and the community at large for losses due to relocation...

I shudder at the prospect of having a man who openly associated with hate-America terrorists and those who preach racial hatred become president.
It’s staggering to think that such a thing could even be a possibility. But it is, and it is left to us to inform and educate others so we can all help prevent it.
Look to Zimbabwe as a model and example of where Obama and his friends will be leading US.
Or Kenya, with his relative, Ortinga.
The sheeple will just be herded along....
Now that will put a scare into you.
Last July, ACORN settled the largest case of voter fraud in the history of Washington State. Seven ACORN workers had submitted nearly 2,000 bogus voter registration forms. According to case records, they flipped through phone books for names to use on the forms, including “Leon Spinks,” “Frekkie Magoal” and “Fruto Boy Crispila.” Three ACORN election hoaxers pleaded guilty in October. A King County prosecutor called ACORN’s criminal sabotage “an act of vandalism upon the voter rolls.”
The group’s vandalism on electoral integrity is systemic. ACORN has been implicated in similar voter fraud schemes in Missouri, Ohio and at least 12 other states. The Wall Street Journal noted: “In Ohio in 2004, a worker for one affiliate was given crack cocaine in exchange for fraudulent registrations that included underage voters, dead voters and pillars of the community named Mary Poppins, Dick Tracy and Jive Turkey. During a congressional hearing in Ohio in the aftermath of the 2004 election, officials from several counties in the state explained ACORN’s practice of dumping thousands of registration forms in their lap on the submission deadline, even though the forms had been collected months earlier.”
In March, Philadelphia elections officials accused the nonprofit advocacy group of filing fraudulent voter registrations in advance of the April 22nd Pennsylvania primary. The charges have been forwarded to the city district attorney’s office.
Oh, I do agree with you there. I am always sick of the GOP campaigning by the Queensbury Rules while the democrats are street fighting.
When Ortinga lost, his followers went on a rampage of pillaging, rioting, rape, and murder until the new Kenyan government gave in and appointed Ortings Prime Minister.
That is what Obama represents. Underneath the smooth talking teleprompter guided speeches, IMHO, is a monster.
His own talk in his books about how he learned to become "accepted" by whites by talking defentially and smooth to them is, IMHO, indicative of the anger beneath the surface.
It comes out in unguarded moments like in San Francisco when referring to the bitter rural folks clinging to their guns and religion. It comes out when his wife tells people that Obama will not allow them to support him and remain unchanged.
Each of us must do all in our power to defeat this charlatan and anti-American, and to defeat him, hopefully, soundly.
They're also responsible for registering more illegal aliens, dead people, and pets to vote than any other organization.
Brocco was too busy ignoring 20 years of Jeremiah Wright's vitriol to pay attention to the ACORN escapades. And this unconscious idiot thinks himself to be Presidential material. Light another Kool fool.
Make no mistake about it, these people (Obama and the leftest controller DNC) are fully capable and willing to do everything they accuse the Bush administration of doing with regards to infringing on civil liberties. Their accusations are mirrors of their intentions.
ACORN-good name for a bunch of nuts!
Obama – It’s Not About the Man
Obama is a young bright well spoken politician. It’s not about him. It’s about his policies stupid, or rather his stupid policies. McCain is going to have to talk about how Obama wants to double almost every tax on business and investments, capital gains, dividends, and the inheritance tax to name a few. He will weaken our national security by destroying the Patriot Act, stop wiretapping, and loose the war on terror. He is going to give free healthcare to illegal’s, allow the children of illegal’s to attend public school, collect workers’ compensation, and unemployment.
Many of the falsified voters registrations and voting across the country were perpetrated by Acorn ‘community activists’
I hope someone at the McCain camp has this info and can connect the dots and then USE it as a reason why this liberal cannot be trusted with the Presidency.
I think you underestimate these people. We just just be told that the real enemy is an internal threat (not external) and the real war must be waged against the Global Warming skeptics and the Patriot Act must be redirect to address the real enemy. Watch for it, it will happen. They have already signaled their intentions. It will start with the show trials of many folk in the Bush administration regrading the WOT "ABUSES".
I really believe that is what the Klintoons were doing in 1993 when they began the siege on the Branch Davidian compound near Waco, TX. Hitlery and Slick, along with their hench(wo)man, Janet Rhino, were embarking on an effort to convince the American people that US conservatives (what they called right wing extremists) were a threat to America. Unfortunately for the 80+ Branch Davidian men, women and children who were burned to death, but fortunately for the rest of us, this event put an end to the Klintoon’s program of warfare against US conservatives.
In my hometown of La Crosse, Wisconsin ACORN was instumental in getting the city council to pass a bill ordering city businesses to pay “a living wage” to its employees. Every city firm that does business with the city will have to pay every employee a wage far above the minimum wage. ACORN has been involved with a great many American cities doing the same thing. A great way to attract business, huh? (smirk)
