Excerpted:

“While John McCain was being tortured as a prisoner of war in Hanoi, First Unitarian Church of Honolulu — at which the elementary-age Obama would later attend Sunday school after returning from Indonesia in 1970 or 71 — was sheltering deserters and AWOLs...

“The deserters’ exploits were front page news for months on end in mid-1969 Honolulu. They were also proudly trumpeted by the Honolulu SDS tabloid, “The Roach”.

“The contrast between the war hero POW and the Obama deserters’ church would have made a pretty good campaign commercial.

“But nobody in Honolulu spoke up to claim Obama’s First Unitarian connection until after Election Day. Even then it was hush-hush.”

[snip]

“Contemporary accounts of the SDS Resistance use of First Unitarian and nearby Church of the Crossroads as part of the 1968-70 sanctuary for deserters movement shows why Obama would not have wanted this information exposed.

“Starting in 1966 University of Hawaii students and professors began raising funds to donate directly to the Viet Cong.

“These activists eventually won their war against America in Southeast Asia. They and those who admired them are now our professors, our journalists, our ministers, moviemakers, and politicians.

“One of their understudies is President of the United States.

“In 1973 and 1974 Nixon withdrew US troops from South East Asia. When the US war ended the real killing began. The Democrat-controlled Congress cut off US funding to the South Vietnamese and Cambodian governments.

“By April of 1975 Pol Pot took over Cambodia and began murdering as many as 3 million Cambodians. The Vietnamese communists murdered as many as 1.6 million people and forced millions more into exile as “boat people”.

“Those deaths and the domestic political means which made them possible are the most accurate reflection on the generation of activists who raised Barack Obama and created his values.”

Like, ummm, Bill Clinton, the draft dodger who loathes the military?
Why...yes.
Oh, wait. He didn’t go to Hawaii. He went to Moscow.
Much later on, barry went to Pakistan. See a trend in the loyalty department here?

Would that have made his base less likely to vote for him, or more likely?

This was taken on McCain's stopover to the Clinton Global Initiative fund raiser while he was SUPPOSED to be rushing, I say, RUSHING back to DC to "help" with the finacial meltdown.
