President Obama Continues Hectic Victory Tour
Washington Post ^ | 7/30/08 | Dana Milbank

Posted on 07/30/2008 5:24:29 PM PDT by dervish

Barack Obama has long been his party's presumptive nominee. Now he's becoming its presumptuous nominee.

'snip'

On his presidential-style visit to the Western Wall in Jerusalem last week, Obama left a written prayer, intercepted by an Israeli newspaper, asking God to "help me guard against pride and despair." He seems to have the despair part under control, but the pride could be a problem.

I am stunned. To use an obamanism - this is not the Washington Post I know.

It’s just the obligatory ‘negative’ article 4 MONTHS before the election. The plan is to spout this ONE article as some kind of proof they are not biased until November 4!

Don’t be fooled....LOL

A bunch of us started to comment on the nascent obama-press tensions a few months ago. The MSM’s collective ego matches his. When he started scolding them and referring them with a sarcastic ‘that's what you guys do’ the blooming rose started to fade.

Obama has become the Bridezilla of politics.

Lord help our nation if this meglomaniac becomes president.

This article is very significant, I believe. Dana Milbank knows THE IDIOT will cut her off for questioning his egocentric actions. That would be the kiss of death if she really believed he could win. Osama Obama is cutting his own throat and she knows it. Osama Obama Bin Ladin HUSSEIN will Loose in Nov in a massacre and the Clintoon Shadow Government will continue to run the Country for an additional 4 years until Hitlery wins in 2012:-)

JULY 30,2008
HILLARY LOYALIST WAS MAKING HER MORNING INTERNET ROUNDS AND WAS SICKENED BY FURTHER DOCUMENTATION OF THE TERROR ATTEMPTS TO SILENCE THOSE OF US WHO WILL NOT BACK DOWN AND WILL MAKE OUR VOICES HEARD. THERE ARE A LOT AND A LARGE GROWING NUMBER OF CITIZENS IN AMERICA THAT QUESTION THE JUDGEMENT AND EXPERIENCE THAT OBAMA HAS TO BE THE 44TH PRESIDENT. WE STRONGLY BELIEVE HE IS NOT QUALIFIED AND HAD HE BEEN ANYONE OTHER THAN A BLACK LIBERAL HE WOULD BE UNDER THE BUS. I DOCUMENTED A COMMENT MADE BY ANDY MARTIN ON APRIL 4TH, 2007 THAT SENATOR CONYERS KNOWS SOMETHING THAT WE DON’T. (READ THE GREAT AMERICAN RACIAL DIVIDE).
THIS PRIMARY WAS A FAKE SELECTION FOR THE GOLDEN BOY.

HIS CULT FOLLOWING IS USING UNFAIR VIOLENCE TO SILENCE QUESTIONERS.

THE FOLLOWING IS WRITTEN BY CITIZENS WELL:

I first began closely scrutinizing Barack Obama after reading the Larry Sinclair allegations about drug use and sex with Obama in November 1999. The more I searched, the more alarming information I found and the more concerned I became. I also noticed the personal attacks and then death threats made on Larry Sinclair, his family and those following his story. The more questions I asked, the more attacks I received and the more vicious they became.

I am not part of the Larry Sinclair organization, but I have gotten to know him through the course of investigating and asking questions. Many lies have been spread about Larry Sinclair. Larry has been direct and consistent in providing information and answering questions. Larry has been open about his past. Obama has not been open about his past. Obama has consistently lied and used diversions to hide his crime filled past and dubious associations.

I have helped Larry Sinclair on multiple occasions. I have done this for several reasons. His story needs to be spread to more Americans and the Obama Camp has consistently attempted to discredit him, silence him and make him a political prisoner. I am doing my part to keep the story alive and I do not like seeing people bullied. The Nazi Brownshirts bullied anyone that did not fit the party profile.

Many people and bloggers are part of an orchestrated attempt to discredit and silence anyone questioning Obama and his past. One of these blogs, a blog that attracts the lowest type of humanity, has viciously attacked Larry Sinclair, other bloggers and people questioning Obama. They are focusing on this blog after trying multiple times to shut down Larry Sinclair sites. This blog is reporting news, news that the MSM has failed to report. Think about it. This blog, other blogs and individuals are being attacked for asking questions and reporting.

Recently this disgusting pro Obama blog, stepped up their attacks on Larry Sinclair and those following his story. A few weeks ago they attempted to link the Citizen Wells blog to a prominent NC attorney. I contacted the attorney for a heads up, since these bloggers are capable of anything. More recently they linked this blog to a real estate agent in NC. They have posted personal information about this person and family members.

A real estate agent in Little Rock Arkansas is a regular commenter on this blog. A short visit to this blog immediately reveals that no one with integrity would have any part of it. This AR broker is part of the orchestrated attacks coming from this blog. The broker has made threatening comments and emails. Here are some sample comments from the AR broker:
““One question, isn’t there anything we can do to get totally rid of Larry Sinclair?? Perhaps put out a contract on him???”
Lynne D.on 28 Jul 2008 at 6:47 pm”

“I just saw this new post as I was posting below and believe me I can find out most anything about quote “Citizen Wells” I will find out everything about him for I am a member of several special designation groups of the National Association of Realtors.”
“Thank you to Pete and “Make Noise who helped me with the process of shutting down Sinclair’s “Snake Pit”

I hope he doesn’t resurface but we all know that snakes do that and down here in the south we shoot em.”

“Mitch and Nan and all of the group, keep the heat on Larry and try to get his SSI taken away, he does not deserve it”

“LET ME BE CLEAR ABOUT THIS, I HAVE A LIVING MADE FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE NO MATTER WHAT . Have fun maggots defending a loser criminal and you can’t deny that nor can Larry Sinclair.”

Three of the people contacting this site regarding this AR broker are real estate brokers in different parts of the country. At least one of these real estate brokers has contacted the Arkansas Real Estate Commission. Many other people were outraged at this person’s words and attacks.

Obama and the Obama Campaign must be stopped. Everyone must do their part to spread the message. It happened in Nazi Germany. It is already happening here. Read this poem and think about it:

First they came for the Jews
and I did not speak out
because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for the Communists
and I did not speak out
because I was not a Communist.
Then they came for the trade unionists
and I did not speak out
because I was not a trade unionist.
Then they came for me
and there was no one left
to speak out for me.

Pastor Martin Niemöller

Do your part to stop Obama and his thugs. Sign the online petition to impeach Obama. Make sure your friends and associates are aware of Obama. Most importantly, write your senators and representatives.

http://obamaimpeachment.org

THE PETITION READS AS FOLLOWS. PLEASE SIGN IT AND MAKE A DIFFERENCE!

A PETITION
for
The Impeachment of Senator Barack Obama
TO THE CONGRESS OF THE UNITED STATES

Whereas: Senator Barack Obama is an admitted illegal drug user and
is believed to have used illegal drugs as recently as November 1999
or more recently. Mr. Obama has maintained contact with other
admitted illegal drug users.

Whereas: Senator Barack Obama has maintained regular contact
with known criminals such as Antoin (Tony) Rezko and other
criminal elements in Chicago and Illinois. Mr. Obama has
conducted business with these criminals and received campaign
donations from them. Mr. Obama was compelled to return an estimated $250,000 in
donations related to Tony Rezko.

Whereas: Senator Barack Obama has consistently lied about his
contact with convicted criminal Tony Rezko. The Tony Rezko
corruption trial revealed that FBI mole John Thomas helped investigators
“build a record of repeat visits to the old offices of Rezko and former
business partner Daniel Mahru’s Rezmar Corp., at 853 N. Elston, by
Blagojevich and Obama during 2004 and 2005,” according to the February
10, 2008 Chicago Sun-Times.

Whereas: Senator Barack Obama has engaged in unscrupulous business
practices, in particular with Mr. Robert Blackwell. Mr. Obama
received an $ 8,000 per month “legal retainer” from Mr. Blackwell
for a total of $112,000 and reported the income through his law firm
in a manner not unlike money laundering. Obama, along with Obama
campaign manager Dan Shomon, procured $ 320,000 in state grants
for Blackwell’s company Killerspin. Blackwell companies contributed
over $ 32,000 to the Obama campaign in 2007.

Whereas: Senator Barack Obama used the office of IL Senator to
facilitate the vote rigging in Chicago as chairman of the Illinois Senate
Health and Human Services Committee. Mr. Obama pushed legislation in Senate Bill
1332 to reduce the number of members of the Health Facilities Planning Board
from 15 to 9. Mr. Obama did conspire with Stuart Levine, Tony Rezko and
Rod Blogojevich to rig the committee and was rewarded with campaign
contributions. The new members appointed included 3 doctors who contributed to
Mr. Obama. On April 21, 2004, Stuart Levine explicitly advised Dr. Robert Weinstein,
who is now indicted, of Tony Rezko’s role in manipulating the Planning Board’s vote.

Whereas: Senator Barack Obama has engaged in lies and deception
about his past. Mr. Obama lied about his contact level with
convicted criminal Tony Rezko, the amounts and sources of
campaign contributions and encounters with the law. A complaint
has been filed with the Bar Association of Illinois alleging
that Mr. Obama did not answer truthfully all questions on the
application to the bar.

Whereas: Senator Barack Obama has invoked the FOIA in Illinois
when it was politically expedient and ignored or violated the
FOIA at other times. In the Illinois Senate proceedings of
Mr. Obama, in Senate Bill 1416, pleads the importance of businesses
bidding on state contracts having improved access to FOIA data. When
later questioned about his records during his term in the IL
Senate, Mr. Obama gave evasive answers or refused to supply records.

Whereas: The First Amendment provides a right for the people “to
petition the government for a redress of grievances.” Precedents
exist for impeachment and expulsion of a US Senator. Senator William
Blount was impeached by the House on July 7, 1797 and expelled by
the Senate the next day.

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that we, the People, Undersigned,
being citizens of the United States and residents in the Cities and States so
indicated, HEREBY Demand that the Congress of the United States begin
immediate impeachment and/or expulsion proceedings against Senator
Barack Obama.

If you are tired of watching a democracy at work, limp and sore and bruised, then vote for the Socialist/Communist and he’ll nationalize everything and will end the politiocal bickering over legislation...In the process, kiss your freedoms good bye, along with the sacrifices mailions of American men and women made over past centuries to keep this fragile dream of democracy alive..

Kruschev was right: America will fall into communism’s hands like a ripe apple...The apple is ready to fall Nov ‘08

The Dana in question is nominally a “he” not a “she.” However, I can forgive the confusion.
