The meme being circulated by the Obama mafia says that the Obama-Khalidi association really isnt any big deal. Otherwise, why would John McCain have given over $400,000 to a Palestinian group that Khalidi worked with?
Its true that McCain distributed several grants, including one worth about half a million dollars, to the Center for Palestine Research and Studies, or CPRS, a West Bank organization once associated with Khalidi.
What the 0-bots fail to mention is that CPRS is pro-Western and can be characterized as pro-Israel.
Khalidi left CPRS. The Khalidi organization Obama helped fund as a board member for a nonprofit, alongside domestic terrorist William Ayers, has taken a flagrantly anti-Israel line. Khalidis Arab American Action Network has hosted scores of Israel-bashing events, including at least one reportedly attended by Obama.

Good research.. one of those six degrees of separation issues it looks like.
A pretty far cry from McCain’s kids being babysat by Khalidis...or sitting next to Kahlidi at an Israel bashfest....or dining with Kahlidi multiple times in their home. All this when Barak was a bit older than 8 years old!
it was for elections.
Buying a VW is NOT the same as praising Hitler. The difference is that simple!
excellent!
can i just say....lol...that was good.
LOL. Great thinking BSI.
Thanks for this information. Yesterday on Hannity and Colmes, Colmes wouldn’t stop saying McCain gave $448,000 to Khalidi. Tonight Colmes again said the same thing over and over. No one on the show seemed to know what Colmes was talking about.
Appreciate your work, grandpa jones.
Add to this in comparison that the Woods foundation under Obama gave $40,000 to the Arab American Action Network founded by Khalidi in Chicago, the description and aims of which sound like you’re painting a picture of Acorn but with the focus on the Arab American communities, community activism, social justice etc.
I don’t believe McCain gave any money to Palestinians. And if he did, he probably didn’t know who they were. So he has no responsibility for this.
I told him to stop taking kicks to the testicles over this and kick back!
Doesn't the man have researchers of his own?
no, I think he waits on FR and Debbie Schlussel to feed him leads
Glenn Beck’s research staff is top notch, and it took him a few days to get up to speed on this one, too.
An aside...Beck's show was the only thing I watched on his old station! I'm looking forward to the new show when it begins early next year.
