BARACK'S BAD BUDS (What did Barry Hussein really know - and when did he really know it?)

BARACK'S BAD BUDS
June 8, 2008

If people are best judged by the company they keep, then Barack Obama has got some explaining to do.

There's his long-term relationships with extremist preachers like Jeremiah Wright and Michael Pfleger. And his association with '60s radical terrorists William Ayers and Bernardine Dohrn.

And then there's his links with Tony Rezko - the Chicago political power broker who faces up to 20 years in prison after his conviction last week on 16 counts of wire fraud, mail fraud, money-laundering and soliciting bribes.

Rezko was found guilty of corrupting two state boards as part of a scheme in which he collected millions in kickbacks from companies seeking government contracts. Rezko, prosecutors charged, was "the man behind the curtain, pulling the strings."

The Obama-Rezko ties aren't ideological - they're just old-fashioned Chicago street politics at work.

Over the years, Rezko has raised as much as a quarter of a million dollars for Obama's political campaigns.

**SNIP**

All in all, Obama apparently was one of the few people in Chicago who was blind to the fact that Tony Rezko was a key political-influence peddler.

Just as he was about the only person in Trinity United Church who missed every one of Jeremiah Wright's regular militant anti-American sermons.

No wonder Obama's reaction to Wednesday's jury verdict was, "This isn't the Tony Rezko I knew" - just as he maintained that Wright's now-infamous diatribe was "not the person I met 20 years ago."

All of which makes us wonder: What did Barack Obama really know?

And when did he really know it?

Nah, he's the first Reform Democrat from Chicago. He had to take the name Barack Obama because Bigfoot and Sasquatch were already taken.

Yet another area where my Lib friends are squirming to explain why Obama’s relationships are different, given that they all regularly roasted GW over his relatively minor relationship with Ken Lay.

Obama don't see nuthin’, and he don't now nuthin.
He can be intimately involved with a guy like Jeremiah Wright for 20 years, have him do his wedding, baptize his children, go to his church and hear him preach for 20 years, and still manage “not to know” the guy.

Fill in the blanks here of the rest of the Obama spiritual adviser/close buddies, who are going to be exposed as race-hate, America-hating, antisemitic lunatics in the coming months, and Obama is gong to give the same old dishonest stock answer he's been giving : “This isn't the -—————— I knew”

I saw Michael Medved speak last week and his opinion is that the way to beat Obama is to point out that he wants to 1) raise taxes and increase the size and scope of the federal government, and 2) cut the military and retreat from our enemies. Mr. Medved’s point is that if we choose to make the campaign about Obama’s associations and past then we will fail to inspire the electorate to vote for McCain. I think Mr. Medved makes a good point although I think we should do both, that is talk about taxes and defense but also remind people of Obama’s unsavory associations.

Obama’s sole acomplishment as a Senator was co-sponsoring the 2008 Ethics bill. You just can’t make this stuff up.

Excellent posts...we can start by sending out this vid to friends and family:



Obama Vows to Disarm America

RUSH: That's Barack Obama in 2007 with a taped video appeal to a group called the Caucus for Priorities, getting ready to gin up for the Iowa cauci, the Hawkeye Cauci in early January 2008. This is truly bizarre. This is the first step toward disarming the United States -- and of course it presumes that the world will follow our lead in everything we do. It is not just bizarre. It is ignorant, it is risky and at the same time it is arrogant -- and when I saw this, when it was first shown to me yesterday, I said, "This has gotta be... I need proof of this. I can't believe that this hasn't gotten out. I cannot believe that this has not been more widely disbursed and distributed." I said, "I need some proof on this." We went out and we researched it. We found it is true, a story here from March the 4th: "Senator Barack Obama is facing renewed criticism," and this is from the Cybercast News Service, "regarding his national security policies is he continues his campaign for the Democrat nomination."(cont.)

THE AUDACITY OF TRUTH - BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA'S CIRCLE OF FRIEND AND SUPPORT

Barack Hussein Obama is the apex of the hate-America, domestic enemy in this country. His election as president would be the greatest coup any enemy has ever scored against this country and could easily lead to the worst, horrific disaster in our nation's history.

Well darn....clicked onto “Obama going to Disarm America” and of course got sent right over onto Rush's site. Unfortunately, I'm not one of those paid up 24/7 members....so I couldn't access the video.

What is the most annoying to me tho is our so and so blasted media...if they were doing their job instead of covering Hussein's backside, this would be all over their evening news...you can sure bet if it was a Conservative or a RINO even..it would be drummed out onto the airwaves 24/7.

If and when the rumored Michelle Whitey tape comes out, look for him to say, "That's not the Michelle I know."

He spent time in France taking part in labor riots, has written for a socialist magazine, hung a communist flag in his home, and was a fan of Marx while at Harvard.

“Obama Youth” had as its logo the Islamic crescent and stars (until word got out on the net and they had to clean it up)

"Fishy Obama" matured in the polluted waters of Chicago politics.

He's contaminated. Too bad he doesn't glow green so everyone realizes he's toxic.

Thanks a lot for trying to help....I couldn't access this site either...comes up address error, but I'm not quick to accept that, as I don't have a computer...I'm on a web TV, and there are so many times it's just “goofy”, tho it's sure better than not having access to the internet at all.

Again, thanks for being so thoughtful...

You need to show Obama’s associates to prove that Obama is an outoftouch outside-the-mainstream leftist who doesnt have America’s values as his own.
