Siegel continues: "Some of Obama's advantage came from the efforts of his political ally, the flame-throwing reverend James Meeks, who mocks black moderates as "ni**ers" and is an Illinois state senator and pastor of a mega-church which has put its vote-pulling muscle behind Obama. Then, Obama appeared before a supposedly closed San Francisco audience and made his infamous remarks about small-town Pennsylvanians who "cling to guns or religion or antipathy towards people who aren't like them, or anti-immigrant sentiment or anti-trade sentiment as a way to explain their frustrations." This remark about bitter, white, working-class small town voters came fom a man who belongs to a church built on bitterness, rancour and conspiratorial fear. Wright's "black theology" is essentially a Christianized version of Malcolm X's ideology of hate. Obama and Michelle earned over a million dollars between 2000 and 2004. But the man who preaches compassion and mutuality gave all of 1 percent to charity during those years - and most of that to WRIGHT'S CHURCH! In the Illinois Senate he made a speciality of voting present but was considered more liberal than 86 percent of his colleagues His voting record has moved even further Left since then. The National Journal ranks him the MOST liberal member of the Senate. And the radical Left Americans for Democratic Action (ADA) gives him a 97.5 percent rating."

Even Aussies down under know that B.O. Hussein is a lying, corrupt, immoral, racist empty suited fraud of a stinking politician from the cesspool of Chicago government that makes Al Capone look like an ANGEL! Why dont Our Demorat supposidly compatriots see this bulldunger for what he really is? I heard he has already promised to put foot baths in the Wnite House, the Capital, and ALL Federal Courts! AS an alleged CHRISTIAN, why would B.O. Hussein want to do that??????????? May God Bless Our America and our Republican Party and relocate the demorats to amother part of the Universe :-)

[muir_redwoods]

Can anyone point to a single accomplishment that makes B. Hussein Obama more qualified than the Dan Quayle the left laughed at 20 years ago?

Anyone? Anything?

Stanley Ann Dunham was a willful wild child of the Baby Boom generation, who took up with a foreigner as much to make a point with her parents, as to be out on some new frontier of social evolution. Barack Obama, like all of us, had no choice in selection of parents. It is what he made of the situation of his upbringing that makes the difference.

Certainly Obama was offered a vast number of choices in what he could do in his situations, far more, probably, than the typical child of mixed marriages. But given a choice, he still gravitated toward some of the “easy” pathways, exerting less than optimal effort to really become something. Up to now, he has been a very big frog in a relatively small pond. That leads to personal complacency and heightened expectations.

The pond is now MUCH larger, and the relative advantage is much diminished. Has Obama discovered that he may be comparatively unprepared for some the challenges that are coming? Is he doing anything to make himself more prepared when those challenges do arise?

Winning the confidence of large numbers of people is not a matter of avoiding criticism, it is MEETING the criticism with valid and reasonable rebuttals. Or even getting out ahead of potential criticism, and making your detractors look foolish and unprepared to challenge you.

There is a fine line out there, between being a seasoned statesman and a demagogue. And so far, Obama seems ready and willing to go for the demagogue.

[Always Right]

Never in our history has a man so unqualified come so close to being President.

[Amendment10]

The TV Obama is a product of the selfish-interest groups who control the MSM.

A great article, one to keep and refer too.

Once again we owe the Australians, Thanks.

osama hussein cut his political teeth on Chicago politics and we’re expected to believe that he’s pure as the driven snow? Give me a break! (sarc)

[Salvation]

But this is not an illusion! It is an authentic photograph!

[JCG]

He engages in doubletalk when, on free trade and Iraq, he tells the yokels one thing and the policy people another.

Apparently, he can "doublesing," too...

 

Obama: Man of the World
By NICHOLAS D. KRISTOF
Published: March 6, 2007

Mr. Obama recalled the opening lines of the Arabic call to
prayer, reciting them with a first-rate accent. In a remark that
seemed delightfully uncalculated [...], Mr. Obama described the
call to prayer as "one of the prettiest sounds on Earth at
sunset."
