Think you SERIOUSLY misread my post. I don’t attribute bombings to Obama, but he shares with them the same idiotic, misguided and immoral objective of “ending” a just war through defeat. Hope that is clearer.

“But — unlike some other fringe figures of the era — they’re also flatly unrepentant about the bombings they committed in the name of ending the war, defending them on the grounds that they killed no one, except, accidentally, their own members.”

The bomb killed their own members but it was intended for US servicemen. Give me a break-if it had not gone off accidently
dozens of servicemen would have been murdered.

Have been listening for the past hour plus to John Batchelor and he has been on this and Resko, etc. re Obama.
I and others have been on this info for some time.

McCain may not be our version of a 100% conservative but he is a hell of a lot better than Marxist Obama who will destroy our country period.

Mr. Obama’s relationship with these radicals may just be a bit overstated.

Obama's Bill Ayers problem
http://marathonpundit.blogspot.com/2008/02/obamas-bill-ayers-problem.html

...Jump ahead to 2000...In addition to his professoship, Ayers is The Woods Fund board chairman, and a young state senator, who like Ayers is living in Chicago's Hyde Park neighborhood, is a fellow board member--that person of course is Barack Obama. Why any organization would have Ayers serving on their board (he's not chairman any more, but Ayers is still on The Woods Fund board), is astonishing to me and any other person with common sense. And who'd want to serve with him? That year, Ayers and Obama (who should've abstained) voted to invest $1 million in Woods Fund money into a firm run by a former boss of the then-state senator, Allison Davis. In a different business venture, Davis partnered with Tony Rezko...

I got a feeling the next 10 days are going to be the dirtiest in American Politics.

The Clinton's are not going to go down to Obama without a fight. No way will the let a political amateur win the White House after beating her. They would gladly see him lose in November in order to retain a tad of her legacy as well as his. If he wins in November, he will be more remembered for beating Hillary than McCain. Even if the ship is taking on more water, they’ll dump whatever trash they can on Obama in order to make their buds in the media cover it and ask questions about , even after the primary is considered over.

He was buds with these guys, who to this day are PROUD of being terrorist bombers.

Here's a picture of Obama, with Raila Amolo Odinga, in Kenya, in August of 2006:

A year later, in August of 2007, Raila Amolo Odinga signed an agreement with Sheikh Abdullahi Abdi to implement Sharia law if Odinga were to win the Muslim vote:
Kenyan Christians could be subjected to Sharia law
http://www.christiantoday.com/article/kenyan.christians.could.be.subjected.to.sharia.law/15638.htm

Concerns Raised Over Alleged Vow to Enforce Islamic Law in Kenya
http://www.christianpost.com/article/20071218/30541_Concerns_Raised_Over_Alleged_Vow_to_Enforce_Islamic_Law_in_Kenya.htm

Now, a mere five months later, we've got Odinga supporters burning and hacking Christians to death:
Children torched in Kenya church
http://www.theaustralian.news.com.au/story/0,25197,23000292-601,00.html

In broad daylight, a crowd of Kenyans set a church filled with hundreds of terrified families on fire and listened to their screams as flames engulfed them. According to witnesses including police and a Red Cross volunteer, those who escaped the Assemblies of God Church in Eldoret, about 300km west of Nairobi, were hunted down with machetes; others hid inside pit latrines...

The December 27 presidential election was narrowly won by the incumbent, Mwai Kibaki, amid allegations from defeated challenger Raila Odinga that the vote was rigged.

The violence is the worst Kenya has witnessed since a failed coup in 1982.

With Mr Kibaki belonging to Kenya's largest tribe, the Kikuyu, and Mr Odinga to the second-largest, the Luo, the violence has taken on a distinctly ethnic hue, with tit-for-tat killings and targeted arson attacks.

"What I saw was unimaginable and indescribable," said the director of the Kenyan Red Cross, Abbas Gullet, after visiting several of the worst hit areas of western Kenya. "This is a national disaster."

Those massacred in the church were mostly Kikuyus...

This, of course, is the same Raila Amolo Odinga who claims to be Barack Hussein Obama's cousin:
Odinga says Obama is his cousin
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/africa/7176683.stm

Obama urges talks in phone call to Kenya's Odinga
http://www.brisbanetimes.com.au/news/world/obama-urges-talks-in-phone-call-to-kenyas-odinga/2008/01/09/1199554690401.html

...Odinga told the BBC radio that he had spoken twice with Obama, whose father was from Kenya and like Odinga was a member of the Luo tribe, and added that he and Obama are relatives.

"He called me twice yesterday to express his concern and to say he is also going to call president Kibaki so that Kibaki agrees to find a negotiated satisfactory solution to this problem," said Odinga.

"Barack Obama's father is actually my maternal uncle," said Odinga, who is battling to overturn disputed presidential elections which have plunged Kenya into turmoil...

Amid allegations of vote-rigging, violence erupted 10 days ago leaving 600 people dead and 250,000 displaced and sending diplomats scurrying for a political solution to the crisis...

Obama graduates as editor of harvard law review, is courted by every major law firm in the country, has no wealth, and decides to be a “community organizer” in south side chicago.
How far out of the mainstream do you think he is??

“Unfortunately, this only matters to a few of us. Most people in the street have no idea what this is about and most of those who do, such as the media see it as a positive.”

I would imagine that most people under the age of 40 think that the Weather Underground is the name of a website about the weather.

No not overstated. He has not moved to the center. He is just too smart and he knows the MSM will protect him.
