Obama as You've Never Known Him
Washington Post ^ | 5/23/04 | Dana Milbank

Posted on 05/24/2008 8:36:29 AM PDT by goodnesswins

Here are some things we can look forward to learning about Barack Obama:

• That he was mentored in high school by a member of the Soviet-controlled Communist Party.

• That he launched his Illinois state Senate campaign in the home of a terrorist and a killer.

• That while serving as a state senator, he was a member of a socialist front group.

• That his affiliations are so dodgy that he would have trouble getting a government security clearance.

• That there is reason to doubt his "loyalty to the United States."

At first I thought “there’s no way this is in the comPost”, but then you read the article and realize it’s a hit on the “vast right wing conspiracy” getting ready to swiftboat Barak Hussein.

Milbank is assclown:

”The Vast Right-Wing Conspiracy took a blow with Hillary Clinton's collapse. But it is regrouping, and finding plenty of sinister things to say about Obama -- even if he didn't trade cattle futures.”

He's just trying to minimize the damage when the DBM is forced to report these revelations.

Never apologize for them.
Never appease them.
Never forget.

Newsweek is currently trying to paint anyone opposed to Obama as a white racist. This is clearly the Post’s attempt to paint all of us who are alarmed at his socialist leanings as a bunch of idiots.
The push by the MSM to get Kerry elected will pale to what they will do to get Obama elected. Someday they will look back in shame on their profession.

Nothing but the DBM scraping litter over the stinking POS that is Odumbo. The piece is preemptive discrediting of real facts about the Marxist candidate, with an attribution of “... like a UFO conference.”

I love a desperate MSM.

Here’s all any Conservative needs to know about Barrack Hussein Obama:

Special Interest Group Ratings:

Planned Parenthood - 100% Support
National Right To Life - 0% Support
NARAL - 100% Support
Americans for Tax Reform - 0% Support
ACLU - 83% Support
NEA - 100% Support
NOW Hags - 100% Support
Citizens Against Government Waste - 13% Support
Gun Owners of America - 0% Support
NRA - “F” Rating
Federation for American Immigration Reform - 0% Support
US Border Patrol - 8% Support
Unions - 82% - 100% Support
Population Connection - 100% Support (These are the ‘Zero Growth’ freaks)

http://vote-smart.org/issue_rating_category.php?can_id=BS030017

[Barrack Hussein Obama’s record in the Illinois senate:]

- Opposed the Defense of Marriage Act; would work to repeal it in the U.S. Senate; would not vote for any legislation that would restrict the ability of gays and lesbians to marry.
- Opposed the Born Alive Infant Protection Act four times in Illinois. A similar bill passed the U.S. Senate 98-0. The Born Alive bill would have prohibited a baby from being born alive but left to die according to the mother’s wishes. Obama inexplicably opposed this bill not once, twice, or three times, but four times.
- Obama took almost $90,000 in bundled contributions from the Council for a Livable World. The council is a well-known anti-defense organization.
- Obama puts rigid ideology before what’s best for the people of Illinois, and presumably he would do that as President as well. He has on several occasions made public his opposition to the NAFTA trade agreement and his belief that it must be negotiated. All the while thanks to NAFTA, Illinois exports $1.3 billion in agricultural goods to Canada.
- Obama refused to vote for a bill in the Illinois State Senate that would have increased penalties for drug traffickers.
- Obama voted against a bill that would have delivered the death penalty to gang members who murder first responders.
- Finally, just in case you thought it couldn’t get any worse, Obama was the only member of the Illinois State Senate to vote against a bill that prohibited early release for sexual predators.

Can’t kill the innocent fast enough, can’t free the guilty soon enough!

I’m still waiting for the promised (last week at least) ‘whitey’ rantings of Mrs. O. The MSM isn’t just carrying Barrack’s water...they are toting the honey bucket when he’s finished w/ it.

"They're hallucinating if they think this guy can win."

The Demos will hook both Hillary and Hussein together and will beat McCain.

Watch it happen.

The smoking gun? Obama's "mentor" during his teens, according to Kincaid, was "a key member of a Soviet-controlled network that was sponsored by Moscow and active in Hawaii."

This mentor has a name. I wonder why the Washington Post didn't mention it? Barry did in his book. He called him "Frank". Just "Frank". The Commie mentor's full name is Frank Marshall Davis.

More info about Davis here. So what is it that the Post disputes? Was Davis not Barry's mentor? Was he not a Communist? Why don't they say?

I doubt that this media will ever be ashamed of trying to destroy this nation. Their behavior can only be attributed to agents of our enemies. Their support of this empty suit is more than ample evidence of the source of their loyalty.

BTW, Are they denying any part of those descriptions by the “Great Right Wing Conspiracy” or are they just calling them absurd because they don’t want to defend his anti-American stance?

Is this W-P employee considered a "reporter" or a columnist?

A "reporter" passes judgment on the plausibility of a story's details?

.. and (I'm old) that cute little CP/USA 1950s trick of changing the name of a House Committee on Un-American Activities to "[House] Un-American Activities committee" (HUAC). Wouldn't it have been (and still is) more correct to simply use HCUAA, kew-ah instead of who-act?

.. and the usual (sob, sob) our John Kerry was a victim of swift boating's "absurd to the merely questionable" accusations. The employee left out that it's been revealed that Kerry served in Viet Nam. The employee is probably self-shielded from the public challenge to Kerry to prove he was "swift-boated."

Kerry could collect at least a million dollars to prove he was a victim of swift boating -- maybe he's not interested in the money because there's no woman attached.

On the whole I give the employee an A++ for making it absolutely clear WHY WE NEED A TRULY FREE PRESS TO COUNTER THE MSM. Thank you, Mr. Milbank!

Getting called a racist is already ineffective. Obambi has played it too often during the primary. We could use Geraldine Ferraro as a human shield. This gives the right free license to attack him.

Note that Milbank never makes an effort to deny any of the allegations -- because they are actual facts.

Instead, he's undertaking to diminish them by attacking the messengers.

The reference to "Swift-boating" is ironic -- in that this is exactly how the left tried to deal with the SBVT allegations, which were also actual facts.

Interesting that Milbank didn't take the alternate Clintonian propaganda approach: sure the charges are true, they just don't matter.

The MSM remains America's most dangerous single enemy.
