Barak Hussein Obama - 50 Lies and Counting: Posted on Political forum.com - Elections and Campaigns.

1.) “Selma Got Me Born” - LIAR, your parents felt safe enough to have you in 1961 - Selma had no effect on your birth, as Selma didn’t occur until 1965.

2.) “Father Was A Goat Herder” - LIAR, he was a privileged, well educated youth, who went on to work with the socialistic Kenyan Government.

3.) “Father Was A Proud Freedom Fighter” - LIAR, he was part of one of the most corrupt and violent governments Kenya has ever had

4.) “My Family Has Strong Ties To African Freedom” - LIAR, your cousin Raila Odinga has created mass violence in attempting to overturn a legitimate election in 2007, in Kenya. It is the first widespread violence in decades.

5.) “My Grandmother Has Always Been A Christian” - LIAR, she does her daily Salat prayers at 5am according to her own interviews. Not to mention, she was one of 14 wives to 1 man.

6.) “My Name is African Swahili” - LIAR, your name is Arabic and Baraka (from which Barack came) means blessed in that language. Hussein is also Arabic and so is Obama.

7.) “I Never Practiced Islam” - LIAR, you practiced it daily at school, where you were registered as a Muslim and kept that faith for 31 years,until your wife made you change, so you could run for office.

8.) “My School In Indonesia was Christian” - LIAR, you were registered as Muslim there and got in trouble in Koranic Studies for making silly faces. (check your own book).

9.) “I Was Fluent In Indonesian” - LIAR, not one teacher says you could speak the language.

10.) “Because I Lived In Indonesia, I Have More Foreign Experience” - LIAR, you were there from the ages of 6 to 10, and couldn’t even speak the language. What did you learn, how to study the Koran and watch cartoons?

11.) “I Am Stronger On Foreign Affairs” - LIAR, except for Africa (surprise) and the Middle East (bigger surprise), you have never been anywhere else on the planet and thus have NO experience with our closest allies.

12.) “I Blame My Early Drug Use On Ethnic Confusion” - LIAR, you were quite content in high school to be Barry Obama, no mention of Kenya and no mention of struggle to identify - your classmates said you were just fine...you merely chose to do drugs.

13.)”An Ebony Article Moved Me To Run For Office” - LIAR, Ebony has yet to find the article you mention in your book. It doesn’t, and never did, exist.

14.) “A Life Magazine Article Changed My Outlook On Life” - LIAR, Life has yet to find the article you mention in your book. It doesn’t, and never did, exist.

15.) “I Won’t Run On A National Ticket” in ‘08” - LIAR, here you are, despite saying, live on TV, that you would not have enough experience by then, and you are all about having experience first.

16.) “Voting Present rather than Yes or No is Common In Illinois” - LIAR, That is common for YOU, but not many others have 130 “Present” votes which means you wouldn’t commit yourself because you didn’t want the voters to know the real you and where you stod on the issues!

25.) “My Economics Bill Will Help America” - LIAR, your 111 economic policies were just combined into a proposal which lost 99-0, and even YOU voted against your own bill.

26.) “I Have Been A Bold Leader In Illinois” - LIAR, even your own supporters claim to have never seen any BOLD action on your part.

27.) “I Passed 26 Of My Own Bills In One Year” - LIAR, they were not YOUR bills, but rather handed to you, after their creation by a fellow Senator, to assist you in a future bid for higher office.

29..) “I Am Tough On Terrorism” - LIAR, you missed the Iran Resolution vote on terrorism and your good friend Ali Abunimah supports the destruction of Israel and another friend el Hadi(sp?) was stopped by the Federal Government from collecting and sending donations to the terrorist group Hamas...now he is raising money for you and lists your wife Michelle as a supporter of his and she lists him as one of her friends. Also you and your wife are known co-horts of the man and wife “Weather-Underground” hippie pair who admitted killing people and bombing several federal buildings back in the late sixties or early seventies. The man has written a book saying he and his wife only wish they had done more killings and bombings!

45.) “I Have Always Been Against Iraq” - LIAR, you weren’t in office to vote against it AND you have voted to fund it every single time, unlike Kucinich, who seems to be gutting you, Obama.

46.) “I Have Always Supported Universal Health Care” - LIAR, your plan leaves all of us working taxpayers to pay for the 15,000,000 who don’t have to buy it.

47.) “I Only Found Out About My Investment Conflicts Via Mail” - LIAR, both companies you site as having sent you letters about this conflict have no record of any such letter ever being created or sent.

48.) “I Am As Patriotic As Anyone” - LIAR, you won’t wear a flag pin and you don’t put your hand over your heart during the Anthem... because you have said “you didn’t want to offend muslims and others who don’t like America”!

50.) “Wal-Mart Is A Company I Would’t Support” - LIAR, your wife has received nearly a quarter of a million dollars through Treehouse, which is connected to Wal-Mart.

As a matter of fact, potatoe is not a misspelling, it is an older alternative. I read Atlas Shrugged a few years ago, after the “potatoe” hubbub, and noticed the word spelled that way in the book.

“On what map is Arkansas closer to Kentucky than Illinois?”

Umm, all of them? IIRC, Kentucky’s entire southern border is on the Tennessee line and Tennessee borders Arkansas. Illinois borders neither Tennessee nor Arkansas and you have to go through either Kentucky and Tennessee or Missouri to get to Arkansas from Illinois.

...”Resulting from the bad idea of granting everyone the “right to vote”....”.

I’ll get flamed for saying so, but I agree with John Adams. I believe if an individual does not file a US 1040 tax return in the year prior and current election year, showing actual earned income, he or she should not be allowed to vote, period. I’m not sure college students should be allowed to vote, because their votes are primarily emotion-driven, through on-campus indoctrination by leftist academics and other adverse influences.

Sen. Obama: "Lay off my wife"

On Good Morning America today, Barack and Michelle Obama were talking with Robin Roberts. Barack lets the country know what he thinks about making his wife a campaign issue...


The combined threads should be red meat for the opposition -- if McCain doesn't go on an apology tour.

Ok folks,the Barrack bubble is inflated with methane and after his Denver coronation the RNC is going to give it a little spark making it come down like the Hindenburg in a disastrous conflagration.
That means a McCain win in November no matter how few conservatives vote for him.(Damn! the GOP finally gets a sure thing and McCain is the nominee—talk about getting slapped silly by the karma palm for electing RINOs).
Best for conservatives to vote in droves for the Arizona arsehole now—if you want to have a place at the table.
AND this table has America’s future as it’s centerpiece.
Perhaps in 2010 or 2012,we can make a comeback—which would be hard but easier from a weak position than from no position at all.
Time to go realpolitick,my friends.

Same them for October November so they will be fresh.

I’m not sure if the problem is that people can’t read maps or can’t understand English. Read it this way: “On what map is Arkansas closer to Kentucky than Illinois is to Kentucky?” Illinois and Kentucky share a border about 100 miles long. Arkansas and Kentucky do not touch anywhere.

Illinois and Kentucky share a border... Arkansas and Kentucky do not... so Illinois (BHO’s state) is closer which is what the statement pointed out...

The question you quoted was retorical...

My apologies for so many repeated posts. I spent a LONG time formatting to keep it from posting all in one paragraph, and then it REFUSED TO POST at all.

LOL! And then I just discovered that it had posted, and posted, and posted, but was not showing up at the time.

The question is poorly worded, which was my point. It reads:

On what map is Arkansas closer to Kentucky than Illinois?

He meant:

On what map is Kentucky closer to Arkansas then it is to Illinois?

Or: On what map is Arkansas closer to Kentucky than then it is to Illinois?

I know what he meant, but he goofed, just like Obama did.
