Here’s a summary that you can share with everyone you know.

8,597 posted on Sunday, June 08, 2008  What follows are a number of yourtube vidoes, many of them in Obama's own words, and those of his close associates for over 20 years, and other supporters, which make clear who Obama is and what he reperesents.

Now, although virtually all of this will not matter to Obama's ardent followers who are not swayed by logic, reason, or truth, and to whom, regardless of his positions, his gaffes, his past, or his associations, he is an idol, it can make a difference in educating others.

OBAMA CLAUS. "Once you get past the soaring oratory, to experience a speech by Sen. Barack Obama, D-Ill., is to be hit with an astoundingly lengthy list of promises." How lengthy? Follow the link and see the list. No wonder some people think he'll pay for their mortgages and gas.
 
Posted by Kate at 10:39 AM | Comments (50) "To the earlier comments, I've lived in Zimbabwe, and to be quite honest there are a lot of similarities in political philosophy between Obama and some of the more unsavoury characters on the African continent.

He has certainly demonstrated that he can be a bit of a thug. He is comfortable in the company of anti-white racists. He is friendly with people who lean toward the extreme left, socialist, Marxists, and so froth. He is eloquent (Mugabe for example used to be considered very eloquent when he first hit the scene). He can draw large crowds of people who think he is a savour (see video in Kate's post). He is educated well-above the level of his brethren (Mugabe has how many degrees again?), and is quite happy to put as much distance between himself and those he claims to support (no public Chicago schools for his kids, no sir, private school only).

Note too that his campaign has spent a small fortune trying to get him elected. It's all about image. The game of propping him up can only go on for so long, and I'm pretty sure in the next 72 hours his team will desperately try to keep the momentum going. You can only prop up a fake for so long.

Those voting for him are blind to what really lies behind the glamour and rhetoric. I find him more and more creepy by the day."

Some related thoughts here: "The more expensive housing is, the more politicians can buy votes by offering to make it more affordable (via cheap credit, lower down payment requirements, etc.); same with education. Notice a pattern? Government distortions increase costs of living, and politicians run for government on promises not to remove those distortions, but to add new distortions that will supposedly ameliorate those high costs."

Rush Limbaugh's Gut (Transcript)

Rush In a Hurry - Rush's Gut: Turn Out, Vote, and We Will Win (10/31/08)

I Was Invited To Speak As Hillary Supporter For McCain At Campaign Rally(get your tissues)

In 1982 when Sen. McCain was first elected to the House, Arizona Democratic Congressman Morris “Mo” Udall took him in hand and Sen. McCain has said Mo reached out to him in 50 different ways. Four years later when he was elected to the Senate, Sen. McCain said he felt his greatest debt of gratitude was to Congressman Udall, saying “There was no way Mo could have been more wonderful and there was no reason for him to be that way.”

In the late 1990’s, Sen. McCain made the trip every few weeks to a veteran’s home not far from our nation’s capitol to visit Congressman Udall, who by then lay ill and crippled with Parkinson’s Disease, twisted and disfigured. Udall was rarely conscious and even when he was, showed no signs of recognition.

On one particular day, a nurse entered and said “Almost no one visits anymore.” Once one of the most sought-after men in the Democratic Party, Udall lay dying and was visited regularly by only one single old political friend – Sen. John McCain.

If Barack Obama is elected into office as the 44th president of the United States on Nov. 4 and voters, in tandem, give the Democrats 60 seats in the Senate and give them a solid majority in the House. What happens after Inauguration Day?

Single-party rule is inherently totalitarian whether the people consent to it or not. In most cases, one-party states rise out of authoritarian regimes, including former monarchies, or socialist revolutions. There are currently seven - China, Cuba, Eritrea, Laos, Vietnam, Syria, Korea. The United States would become the eighth.

Obama’s illegal alien aunt (and campaign donor!) is a deportation fugitive; Bush administration moves to protect her

By Michelle Malkin  •  November 1, 2008 01:13 AM

Well now.

Turns out Aunti Zeituni Onyango, one of Democrat presidential candidate Barack Obama’s many relatives made famous in his memoir, is an illegal alien. And not just a run-of-the-mill illegal alien on welfare.

She’s one of the hundreds of thousands of deportation fugitives — absconders – whom I’ve been reporting on for the past six years. After 9/11, the government vowed to crack down on absconders. They’ve failed abysmally.

Aunti’s story:

As I’ve pointed out countless times since 9/11, systemic immigration loopholes and deportation failures that have benefited peaceful illegal aliens have also benefited illegal aliens with nefarious intent.

Reminder from 2004:

Via cjburch, this Ace of Spades commenter sums it all up: “Obama’s aunt is here ILLEGALLY living in poverty, and is a deportation FUGITIVE. She’s collecting WELFARE and has DONATED to Obama’s campaign, ILLEGALLY! Obama. Family in poverty as he makes millions. Complete lawlessness. Giveaway your hard earned tax payer money to illegal fugitives. CHANGE WE CAN BELIEVE IN.”

What I'm Voting Democrat

I've personally given up on issue arguments though. Went to a function tonight full of Obama voters and I've got a new simple closing argument.

When someone says they're voting for Obama I say Oh!, you're voting for the Obama brand.

I then explain that Obama is just a huge marketing campaign with catchphrases, celebrity endorsements and even an infomercial.

Obama aunt from Kenya living in US illegally

Seriously, though, it looks to me like just another variation on “community organizer.” Boston seems to be shot through with these groups (although it appears that the education program she was involved with was actually a federally sponsored group).

So Obama’s aunt was being supported by the taxpayers of Boston while she worked as a “community organizer,” hmmm?

MEET THE PEOPLE WHO WILL DEFEAT BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA
JEFFHEAD.COM ^ | November 1, 2008 | Jeff Head

Posted on Saturday, November 01, 2008 8:58:29 AM by Jeff Head

The Obama campaign, the DNC, the MSM, and others have gone to considerable length, including push polls, mistatements, lies, fraud, and deceit to convince Americans that Barack Hussein Obama has essentially already won the Presidency.

But common, every-day Americans are not buying it.

Meet the people who don't buy it and who will be the principle reason Barack Hussein Obama goes down to defeat on November 4th.
















































The truth is that the left, the Obama campaign, the DNC, and the MSM will lie, fabricate, misquote, commit fruad, beg, borrow, or steal in their effort to slow down what is happening on the ground with the McCain campaign right nowwhere John McCain, Sarah Palin and Joe the Plumber are burrowing underneath all of the hype and drawing 25-30,000 people to rallies everywhere they go and getting the message of hope and conservative values out.

Barack Hussein Obama and his ilk know it, they fear it, and they will do anything they can to stop it...but they shall also fail in the attempt.

The American people are about to show again what they are made of, that theu recognize truth when they see it...and that they also recognize lies, distortion, and deceit when they see them.

The truth has a way of shining all the brighter in darkness, and it is now shining brightly across the American political landscape and gathering strength.

We urge ALL patriotic minded, traditionally valued, committed Americans to do all in their power to help defeat Barack Hussein Obama. Talk to others, volunteer to work at polling place, help find and take others to the polls, and educate them as friends, relatives, and neighbors, use the internet, email chains, blogs, forums, talk radio, editorial pages to spread the word, vote, and have faith in God and the American people.

JOIN US! Make November 3rd a day of prayer, and even fasting if you are so inclined for the welfare and future of our Republic.

Obama’s Campaign Is Layered With Lies

Photobucket 
 
 

Time line of Barak Hussein Obama’s involvement with radical leftists - RESEARCH!

This is the result of countless hours of research, Over 90% of the dates and events can be easily documented. What happened during his Occidental and Columbia colleges days are exceptions. Forward this to as many people! There is no attempt to exaggerate, no need to.

Any open minded, undecided voters reading this will find it troubling! Are there 2 Obamas? A man is known by the company he keeps and the mentors he has had! I highlighted the more important ones in BOLD. Worth reading even for you informed researchers. I have a longer version with some documentations.

Let me quote here and jump to my conclusion, Numerous of these radicals/communists were Obama’s mentors and close friends, even political allies! How could he NOT be influenced? You become who you admire. You Are Who You Choose To Associate With. A man is known by the company he keeps! My conclusion is that Obama felt perfectly at home with these and more because they all shared a similar view of America and goals, to change capitalistic America into a Socialistic America!

Connect the dots. Obama is obviously, after you follow the trail and long list of communists/socialists association & alliances, at the very least, a leftist Fellow Traveler, and at the worst, a Stealth Candidate. It is not an isolated case or an occasional dabbling into socialism or he just happened to be in the same room with the wrong person! These radical leftists are not just casual acquaintances.

He poses the MOST DANGEROUS SECURITY RISK in America’s history! He WILL NOT even pass a low security clearance as an agent for FBI or State department!

 
1970, Obama’s grandfather introduced him to Frank Marshall Davis when Obama was ten, Obama had an admitted relationship with a father mentor figure, someone who was publicly identified as a member of the Communist Party USA. Obama never disputed this relationship. 1975-1979- Frank Davis was Obama’s mentor during the critical years. (AIM) 1980- Both terrorists William Ayers & wife Bernadine Dohrn were in hiding until December, 1980.

1979-1981- He attended Occidental college and tried drugs. It was at Occidental where he stopped being called “Barry” and became Barack . Professor Roger Boesche became Barack’s '1983's intellectual political mentor at Occidental.

Obama’s first public speech was at Occidental, sponsored by the Students for Economic Democracy, a branch of the Campaign for Economic Democracy, chaired by Radical Tom Hayden.

1981-1983.- Professor Steve Diamond believes the origin of Obama’s ties to Weatherman Underground terrorists William Ayers and his wife. could be traced back at least to Occidental College.

Is it just a coincidence that Obama and Ayers were at Columbia together? A plethora of anti-American rallies took place there. Both admit to attending these rallies. Ayers studying for his M.Ed in Early Childhood Education and Obama his B.A. in political science..They are LIKELY to have met.

There is strong evidence now that Obama’s DREAM was written by a ghost writer- Ayers! Similarity between their writings and phrases used! (Freerepublic) Early 1980s -Carter national security adviser Zbigniew Brzezinski became the candidate's "guru and controller" while at Columbia. Brzezinski is Obama’s foreign policy advisor.

In his “Dreams From My Father”, he reveals that at Columbia he “went to socialist conferences …in Brooklyn.” 1983, worked as Full time organizer in Harlem, New York 19851988- he began working as a community organizer in Chicago, working for an Alinskyite group called the Developing Communities Project. a subsidiary of Gamaliel, with McKnight as a board director. Alinsky was the “father of community organizing” and a notorious far-leftist. Later Obama himself taught workshops on the Alinsky method.

Professor John L. Mckight, a Marxist follower of Alinsky, and former ACLU director, mentored Obama on the agitation tactics of Alinsky, who wrote the organizing manual, “Rules for Radicals,” which he dedicated to mankind’s “very first radical, Lucifer.” Under McKnight , Obama says he got the “best education I ever had, better than anything I got at Harvard Law School.” (remark in 2007 while campaigning in Iowa). “My views are not so much more refined than they were when I labored in obscurity as a community organizer,” Obama wrote in his 2006 autobiography.

Mid 1980s, Obama worked with ACORN and Project Vote. 1987 William Ayers links up with Obama in Chicago 1988 Ayers solicits Khalid Al-Mansour to raise money for Obama’s Harvard law School education

Fall, 1988- went to Harvard and took advanced training at the Industrial Areas Foundation, a group founded by Alinsky

1988- he joined racist, America hating Rev. Jeremiah Wright’s Trinity Church of Christ in Chicago and one Sunday was brought to tears by Rev. Wright’s “Audacity of Hope” sermon. Wright admittedly became his mentor and spiritual advisor for the next 20 years.

1988- The ABCs Coalition was coordinated by Bill Ayers, whose father was a key member of ABC. Another member of the ABCs was Obama’s Developing Communities Project.. The two must have crossed paths again.

1988- In his "Why Organize?" essay, Obama planned to politically organize "liberationist" black churches. He saw the black church as a slumbering giant in cities like Chicago.

1989 Tom Ayers (father) and William Ayers got Obama a summer job at Sidley & Austin (where he meets Michelle Obama); Ayers’ wife Dohrn also worked there the same time.

April, 1992- Obama, Ayers & Dohrn had their documented public gathering sponsored by the U. of Illinois, Chicago 1992 - Obama graduates from Harvard and returns to Chicago

1992, Obama became director of Project Vote, Illinois. 1992-New Party was founded- a Marxist political coalition whose objective was to endorse and elect leftist officials — mostly Democrats. They want to move the Democratic Party leftward.

1993-2004 worked as associate in Chicago Law firm. In time, the job would bring him support from slum landlords. Remember Rezco?

1993 Ayers places Obama on Woods Foundation, which gave sizable grants to ACORN, Rev. Wright’s church , etc. 1995 -publishes “Dreams From my father”

1995 Ayers made Obama Chairman of Chicago Annenberg Challenge (CAC)

1995-1999- Obama served as President of CAC

1999-2001- Obama served as Board of Director, CAC After CAC closed down, Obama served on a successor group called the Leadership Council of the Chicago Public Schools Education Fund. Ayers’ brother John and their father Thomas served with Obama. By now, news all over about Ayer’s boasts of his terrorist acts.

1995 Ayers hosts a coffee fundraiser for Obama’s political debut (Obama falsely claims this is when he first met Ayers when he has met him AT LEAST 8 years earlier!) -Chicago Times interview: 10-7-08 Lynn Sweet Obama’s advisor, Axelrod , claim that Obama did not know Ayers’ history when he went to his home (Fox interviews, Oct. 08) 1996-Ayers began to contribute money to Obama’s campaign. How is it possible that Obama in writing two autobiographies could ignore his 13 year-long association with Ayers if he were not purposely trying to hide it?

1996, Ayers played a significant role within the Democratic party in Chicago. Democrats were proud to be allied with him. ( Chicago Tribune, Aug 27, 1996) David Lytel, who set up President Clinton's Web site said,” There is a lot of room for different ideas in progressive politics, and we're proud to be associated with Bernardine Dohrn and Bill Ayers," Ayers & , Henry DeZutter consider themselves "The Progressive Wing of the Democratic Party hasn't gone underground. . . . We're on the Internet!"

1995- Obama, along with Rev.Wright, helped organize the Farrakhan’s famous Million Man March in DC. Farrakhan is a longtime friend of Wright and comrade of Michael Pfleger. Yeah, birds of the feathers flock together! It's evident that the liberationist preachers were also Obama’s valued political allies.

1995- he sued, on behalf of ACORN, for the implementation of the Motor Voter law in Illinois. ACORN later invited Obama to help train its staff on how to shake down banks.

1995- Obama sought the New Party’s (socialistic) endorsement for his 1996 state senate run. Democratic Socialists of America founded the "New Party" He got it and he used New Party volunteers as campaign workers. The New Party rigorously evaluated its candidate endorsements & Obama HAD to sign a contract that he agrees with its goals! The contract mandates that they must have a visible and active relationship with the NP

1997-Ayers published his radical book, A Kind and Just Parent, in which he brags of his terrorist acts Dec 97, Obama wrote a positive review of Ayers's book in the Chicago Tribune the following month. He did not know Ayer’s past?

1997- another joint appearance with Ayer

1988- In his "Why Organize?" essay, Obama planned to politically organize "liberationist" black churches. He saw the black church as a slumbering giant in cities like Chicago.

1990’s-Obama was a card carrying documented active member, participant and a direct political beneficiary of the Chicago New Party and, importantly, the Chicago Democratic Socialists of America (DSA). Newsletter said Obama “walked the walk & talked the talk” ( Newsletter , New Ground 45, March-April , 96.)

Democratic Socialists of America - as “the principal U.S. affiliate of the Socialist International,” DSA is the largest socialist organization in US. Weatherman Underground splintered from SDA in 1969

1996-when Obama ran with the blessings of the Marxist New Party and Chicago Democratic Socialist Party April 11, 1996- Obama attended membership meeting where he expressed his gratitude for their support.

1996-Obama was speaker at meeting of the Democratic Socialists of America (Sponsored by: University of Chicago Democratic Socialists of America)

1998- Connie Chung ABC interviewed Ayers & wife & they said,” We were young, idealistic, and We would do it (bomb) again. I wish we have done more!” This was HUGE news! Obama must have watched news!

2000- Obama was supported by leftist catholic priest, Rev. Michael Pfleger of Saint Sabina Catholic Church, in his House of Rep. race. He was another Obama’s spiritual adviser . 1995- 2001, Pfleger contributed $1,500 to his campaigns. Obama later sponsored a $100,000 earmark to help finance Pfleger’s youth center

2001- Ayers was photographed stepping on American flag and I guess Obama missed the news again? In his “Fugitive Days”, Ayers boasts that he “participated in the bombings of New York City Police Headquarters in 1970…” All told, responsible for some 30 bombings. Ayvers bragged, “I don’t regret setting bombs”, “I feel we didn’t do enough.” Was Obama blind, deaf, incredibly naive?

2001-2002, Woods Fund with directors Ayers and Obama, made grants of $40,000 and $35,000 to the Arab American Action Network, founded by radical Kashid Khalidi . Rashid is a professor at Columbia. he was strongly identified with PLO. Khalidi hosted a fundraiser for Obama in 2000.

April-2002, Obama & Ayers spoke at another panel. 2002 through 2005, the two regularly exchanged emails and phone calls.

2004- the Communist Party USA campaigned to elect Obama to the US Senate (People's Weekly World 4-24-.04).

2004 interview-(Chicago Sun-Times) Obama described racist minister , Rev. James Meeks of Chicago’s Salem Baptist Church as an adviser to whom he looked for “spiritual counsel.” In 2007 Meeks served on Obama’s exploratory committee for the presidency

April 5, 2004- He came out and declared, “I am a Christian,”, “I’m rooted in the Christian tradition. I believe that there are many paths to the same place, and that is a belief that there is a higher power”, “I am a big believer in the separation of church and state.” 2007

Top Marxist praise Obama in article “Obama’s Audacious Foreign Policy, 6-18-07, Political affairs.net, By Joel Wendland, managing editor Wendland is one the world's top Marxist-Leninists. He heaps praise on Obama. Is he sending a clear signal to thousands of Communist Party members that Obama is the party's favored candidate? It looks that way.

Dec. 2007, Obama sought Rev. Wright’s counsel before formally declaring his candidacy in 2007. Wright was named as member of the campaign’s African American Religious Leadership Committee.

2007-2008 The structure of Obama’s presidential campaign increasingly resemble an Ayers-designed national “community organizer matrix” straight out of Maoist theory. 2008 Obama tells a national TV audience he was “six years old” when Ayers bombed federal buildings, and they are only casual neighborhood acquaintances. He was 40 when supported by Ayers for his Senate seat!. 2004 -Frank Chapman called Obama a communist mole? Chapman, a CPUSA supporter, has written a letter to the communist party newspaper hailing obama’s victory in the Iowa caucuses.

“Obama’s victory was more than a progressive move; it was a dialectical leap ushering in a qualitatively new era of struggle,” Chapman wrote,” Marx once compared revolutionary struggle with the work of the mole, who sometimes burrows so far beneath the ground that he leaves no trace of his movement on the surface. This is the old revolutionary ‘mole,’ not only showing his traces on the surface but also breaking through.”

2004 –present - ACORN and its sister group Project Vote ran nationwide voter drives, which were marred by voter frauds.

2005 - Obama purchases land from neighbor and now-indicted political fundraiser Antoin "Tony" Rezko

June, 06- Jim Wallis - A socialist “Christian” preacher and founder of Sojourners, Jim has long championed the cause of communism. On June 28, 06, Obama spoke at a Sojourners-sponsored Conference, calling Wallis, “my friend.”

2006 Obama flied to Kenya to campaign openly for his radical, leftist, pro-violence cousin Raila Ordinga. Obama never condemned the violence and bloodshed instigated by Ordinga after his narrow election loss.

December, 2006, George Soros met with Obama in his New York office. Soros had hosted fund-raiser for him back in 2004. In 2007, within hours of Obama’s announcement of his presidential exploratory committee, Soros sent $2,100, the maximum amount allowable. Soros believe America is an oppressive nation.

April 2007- The Nation reported, “Today Obama continues his organizing work largely through classes for future leaders identified by ACORN and the Centers for New Horizons…” In Oct. 08, Obama denied his involvement in ACORN.

2008- Obama named Professor West of Princeton to his presidential campaign’s Black Advisory Council. A member of the Democratic Socialists of America, and a Marxist and admirer of Rev. Wright.

June-08-Mohamed Salim Al-Churbaji - a Syrian University student who served as a fundraiser and organizer for Obama’s campaign. His father, Mohammed Al-Churbaji, is a member of the Muslim Brotherhood with close ties to such terrorists as Abu Amatallah; leading mujahideen fighters Abu Rawdha; and Bassam Ahmad, the latter fought for Osama Bin Laden !

08- Valerie Jarrett, Michele Obama's boss, became Obama's chief advisor and he doesn’t make any major decisions without first talking to her. She was born in Shiraz, Iran.

2008- Obama was forced to cut ties with Robert Malley, his foreign policy advisor after the latter told the Times of London that he had been in regular contact with Hamas.

January , 2008 on - Joyce & Tim Wheeler, known commusis campaigning for Obama! – Joyce is Baltimore’s longtime C Py activist. Both became prominent figures in his campaign, helping to organize local canvassing and visibility events for the candidate. Tim is a National Board member of the Communist Party (CPUSA). He chronicled his experiences on the campaign trail in a blog that appeared on the Obama campaign website.

4/25/2008 (Judicial Watch)-The chairman of an Islamic “charity” shut down by the U.S. government for funding Middle Eastern terrorists has dedicated himself to raising money for … Obama.”

September 23, 2008 – After pouring through thousands of pages of newly released documents from archives of the Chicago Annenberg Challenge , they reveal that Obama and Ayers were “partners” in a radical education program.

2008- Four Weatherman Underground leftists have signed and endorsed Obama online for Progressives for Obama, including Mark Rudd, a founders of the WU.

2008- The racist leader Louis Farrakhan who earlier lavishly praise on Obama, “this young man is the hope of the entire world”, “America will change and be made better.” Latest remarks at Nation of Islam rally (on U-tube), says “When Obama talks the Messiah is absolutely speaking.” and "I love my BROTHER and I want to see that brother successful. I don't want to say anything that would hurt that brother, and I don't want them to use me or the Nation of Islam."

Conclusion & vital questions:

Numerous of these radicals/communists were Obama’s mentors and close friends, even political allies! How could he Not be influenced? You become who you admire! You Are who You Choose to Associate with! A man is known by the company he keeps! Even if 10% of these relationships are true, it should disqualify him from the Presidency!

Obama felt perfectly at home with these dangerous people, because they all share a similar view of America and goals, to change capitalistic America into a Socialistic America! Obama is obviously, to the objective mind, at the very least, a leftist Fellow Traveler, and at worst, a Stealth Candidate.

He WILL Not even pass a security clearance as an agent for FBI or State department.! He poses the MOST DANGEROUS security risk in America’s history!

Erica Jong speculates on the outcome of an Obama electoral loss in terms which set the standard for the word hysteria.

Yesterday, Jane Fonda sent me an email to tell me that she cried all night and can’t cure her ailing back for all the stress that has reduces her to a bundle of nerves.”

“My back is also suffering from spasms, so much so that I had to see an acupuncturist and get prescriptions for Valium.”

“After having stolen the last two elections, the Republican Mafia…”

“If Obama loses it will spark the second American Civil War. Blood will run in the streets, believe me. And it’s not a coincidence that President Bush recalled soldiers from Iraq for Dick Cheney to lead against American citizens in the streets.”

“Bush has transformed America into a police state, from torture to the imprisonment of reporters, to the Patriot Act.”

Beer, boys, beer. It’s time to drink a beer. Even in the unlikely event that what Erica Jong predicts happens, I would rather die drunk than die insane.
(more…)

3. wretchard:

In the last two months I’ve received a lot of emails from people who were distraught about the probable outcome of these elections. But not a single one of them suggested, even remotely, indirectly or tangentially, that they would not respect the laws. An electoral outcome would break their heart, but it would not break their loyalty. One got the sense that although they might seek other employment or enter politics full time to take a hand in public life no one was going to go berserk.

I think most people are like that: sane, even on the liberal side of the aisle until you get to the edges, where all the bets are off. That knowledge provides a great of confidence.

But it’s also a fact that events can come, seemingly bolt out of the blue, to upset a seemingly rock-solid situation. Niall Ferguson makes the point that the bond markets never anticipated the First World War. The more interesting question to me is what the pathology if hysteria is — hysteria as opposed to realism — and what societies defenses are against it. My own feeling is that the best defense against hysteria is a span of relative uneventfulness. Panic’s ally is the feeling of time running out, of walls closing in, of things falling apart. We live from the energies of the day; but we are sustained by the repose of sleep.

The idea that popping a beer might help is only half-facetious. Just don’t pop so many that you break them off at the necks and pour them down your throat.Oct 31, 2008 - 6:01 pm

Investigating Obama: Career Path Toward a Neo-Marxist Presidency” http://investigatingobama.blogspot.com/:

Obama also shared an office for apparently three years with Ayers and fellow SDS member Michael Klonsky (a self-described Maoist communist) while taking Annenberg millions and devoting much of it to ACORN and other insurgent-socialist "community organizations" fitting the terrorist Weathermen's model. The goal? "Raise political consciousness," chiefly among black school kids. (Historically, an SDS and Weathermen objective has been to piggyback upon any black revolt in America, for their Marxist ends.) What "political consciousness?" One attractive to Ayers, a self-proclaimed anarchistic Marxist. Ayers secured the purse, thus presumably played a responsible role in setting up young Mr. Obama as chairman. They apparently formed a small circle of Chicago's education radicals.

This Is What a Vote for Obama Gets You [Must Read]
New Media Journal ^ | October 31, 2008 | Frank Salvato

Posted on Sunday, November 02, 2008 6:03:57 AM by Zakeet

I live in Illinois, just outside of Chicago. I live in the state that incubated the political career of Barack Obama and for that, as a resident of the State of Illinois and a conservative, I apologize. But this puts me in a unique position to afford you a glimpse of things to come for our nation should Barack Obama attain the Oval Office, and especially if Democrats maintain or increase their control in Congress. I present to the citizens of the United States the State of Illinois; a working model that illustrates the consequences of a government run by the Progressive-Left.

In 2003, five short years ago, the State of Illinois went blue; not light blue or royal blue but Daley Machine, Chicago Democrat, Progressive-Left cobalt blue. For decades our state existed in a symbiotic political state; the Daley Machine Chicago Democrats controlling Cook County and most of the lesser “urban areas” and the Illinois GOP holding sway in the collar counties and rural areas. But the failure (and I believe cowardice) of Republican Governor George Ryan to take one for the party by stepping down before he was convicted of corruption, ushered in a dark era of Progressive-Left, Democrat political control in Illinois. Democrats now hold all statewide offices and control both houses of the legislature. This being said, everything that has happened since 2003 is attributable to Democrat and Progressive-Left action and leadership.

The governor of the State of Illinois, Rod Blagojevich, has an approval rating of 4 percent. Rasmussen Reports ranks Blagojevich as the country’s least popular governor. He is embroiled in the Tony Rezko/Stuart Levine corruption probe. Levine pled guilty and Rezko was convicted for scheming to obtain kickbacks from investment firms seeking business from two state boards. The governor’s wife, Patricia, was a business partner of Rezko. Of course, we know the name Tony Rezko from his shady relationship with Barack Obama.

Under Blagojevich, the state’s unfunded pension debt is the largest in the United States. In 2005 that amounted to $35 billion. But that didn’t stop Blagojevich from raiding the State University Pension System to the tune of $1.2 billion in order to “balance the budget,” something that still eludes the governor. Additionally, Blagojevich raised licensing fees on auto dealers almost 20-fold, required small businesses to print all of their own forms when filing state paperwork and proposed raising the fee for the Illinois Firearm Owners Identification Card from $50 to $500. He said the increased FOID fee, “...was necessary so people would think twice about wanting to own a gun.” Of course, it also put the ability to purchase a gun – to defend oneself with a legally purchased firearm – out of range for many middle and lower-middle income families, the Second Amendment be damned.

Because of the ever expanding entitlement mentality possessed by the Chicago City Council, Chicago now has a $420 million budget deficit for the year and the highest sales tax in the United States at 9 percent. The sales tax is causing Chicago residents to flee to the suburbs to buy big ticket items, thus decreasing the tax revenue earmarked for the city. The $420 million budget deficit – hot on the heels of a 2006 $217 million budget deficit – has caused Mayor Richard M. Daley to institute mandatory furlough days for non-critical, union, city employees, as well as numerous other gimmicks to generate revenue. Shedding surplus entitlement programs and/or trimming the budget of unnecessary programs or agencies would make too much sense.

The City of Chicago, being the caring, diverse, tolerant, progressive city that it is, has achieved a rare distinction among American cities: Chicago is the new murder capitol of the United States. Chicago has experienced 426 homicides this year to date. This compares to 417 in New York City and 302 in Los Angeles, California (both of those cities have Progressive-Left friendly mayors and city councils as well). In fact, Chicago is home to a number of fine, upstanding young Progressive citizens in the form of a plethora of street gangs. From the Latin Kings to the Gangster Disciples, the Insane Deuces to the Insane Gangster Satan Disciples, street gangs that deal drugs, enforce protection schemes and offer a culture of fast-living, easy money and early death reign in Chicago’s neighborhoods. Meanwhile, owning a handgun in Chicago is forbidden and Mayor Daley has shamefully used the murder of a young child to call for a complete ban on civilian owned firearms, usurping the Second Amendment of the US Constitution. Incidentally, the Chicago City Council has also passed a resolution that makes Chicago a “nuclear weapon free zone,” so we’ve got that going for us.

Chicago’s education system is also a jewel. Chicago’s Board of Education pats itself on the back for achieving a 51 percent graduation rate, while sending “graduates” to institutions of higher learning whose proficiency in reading, writing, math and science is arguably insufficient. In fact, an inordinate number of Chicago Public School graduates must take rudimentary classes in math and English in order to be fully accepted to College or University. Violence, including gang related shootings, is not unheard of in the schools of Chicago. In fact, there are special police that are assigned to schools throughout the city and metal detectors adorn many a school’s doors.

To be fair, this disturbing reality is more the result of union interference in matters of curriculum creation, teacher quality and classroom instruction and special interest group and civil rights organization influence and interference – along with parental apathy – than it is anything else. Chicago Public School Chief Executive Officer Arne Duncan has made an admirable attempt to maximize the learning experience for Chicago’s students and teachers alike in the face of special interest tyranny, even if he has had to do so with one hand tied behind his back, the other under the critical and political eye of Mayor Daley.

And as Chicago, the city, becomes inebriated in decay, Mayor Daley and the Cook County Board are feverishly trying to salvage their entitlement-based regimes by capitalizing on the process of “community rehabilitation” – the exportation of residents who previously lived in “undesirable,” non-revenue generating “affordable housing” to the collar counties and suburbs. As old high-rise “affordable housing” units are destroyed to make way for the tax-revenue generating condominiums, townhouses and Olympic venues, the stench of Progressive-Left entitlement, along with the consequences its ideology brings, is infecting the rest of the state in a destructive way.

An aggressive “urbanization" of the once peaceful and amiable Chicago suburbs is causing a rise in problems traditionally found in urban areas: struggling schools, overcrowding, crime, traffic congestion, elevated costs of living, municipal budgetary woes, stagnant development, and ideological confrontation, complete with special interest influence from outside the community. Just as with the National Education Association’s encroachment upon local control of schools and their curriculums, the “urbanization” of the suburbs, collar counties and progressively (no pun intended) the rural areas of Illinois is facilitating a culture of urban morality; a society ruled by moral relativism, victimhood and the caretaker nanny state.

We here is Illinois understand the pitfalls of a one party, Progressive-Left, socialist system of government. In a state where the largest urban locale accepts as unavoidable the notion that dead men can vote, sometimes twice, the art of committing voter fraud and eliminating opposition candidates – sometimes of the same party – is handed down from generation to generation in a quest to maintain a stranglehold on power for “the machine.” From precinct captains, aldermen and community organizers to special interest activists, racially biased religious leaders and former Weather Underground terrorists, Illinois, because of the unyielding aggression of the Progressive-Left, has been transformed from a land where individual rights were guarded and constitutional liberty was valued at all costs – the Land of Lincoln – to the home of religious zealots like Rev. Jeremiah Wright, Fr. Michael Pfleger and the Nation of Islam’s Louis Farrakhan and political opportunists like Jesse Jackson, Dick Durbin, Rod Blagojevich and Barack Obama. Conservatives are left with no voice on the national stage and small quarter in the state where we live.

This is just a limited glimpse into what it is like to live in a cobalt blue state; where Progressive-Left Democrats wield the tenets of socialism – including wealth redistribution and the limitation of constitutional rights – with impunity. Should the voters of America foolishly opt to discard liberty, opportunity and self-reliance in a self-centered quest for unearned wealth and a fraudulently engineered societal equality, we will come to rue the rhetoric of “hope and change,“ just as we will all soon be weeping for the freedoms we so imprudently cast aside.

Government must come before politics. The sanctity of the Constitution must trump political ideology. Country first.

From Sept. 2:

Wall-to-Wall “Palinsanity” & BUTTONS!


Buttons thanks to Shana!

Althouse coined the word “Palinsanity” and one of her commenters made a palindrome to describe the whole movement of the left and the press: Harassarah….that would be, Harass Sarah. It’s all they can do, because the left is clearly out of its collective mind over this woman, and they’re only going to get worse. And it’s all going to backfire on them. Big time. And the left is utterly destroying their own credibility with regards to women and family issues. As I wrote yesterday:

Ace writes: Don’t believe a damn word the lefties write about the Palins. Don’t worry, I won’t. Their credibility is finally, utterly, used up with me. If there was ever a time to ask, “have you no shame. Finally, have you no shame,” this is it.

Do you get the impression I am getting, that if Sarah Palin does not learn her place and “go home” soon, the members of the press, especially on tv, are going to begin shaking and screaming, and totally losing it? That’s the impression I am getting; that Andrea Mitchell and Chris Matthews, and Olbermann and Alter, (and all the rest) their heads are literally going to explode soon if - after this relentless journalistic jihad, meant to destroy Palin in a matter of days - McCain does not drop her or Palin does not collapse. I think I’ll pray for Mrs. Palin and for McCain. I wouldn’t mind seeing members of the media have on-screen breakdowns. Not after this. Hang on, Sarah! Hang on, McCain!

And no, I have never seen anything like this in 40 years of watching politics. The hatred being spewed for Palin is like the combined hate for Hillary, Bill and Dubya. Except all of those hates took time to build. Sarah Palin has been on the national scene for about 125 hours. HOURS. It seems unnatural to me, and intellectually dishonest.

I was just thinking today, how much Chris Matthews would LOVE Sarah Palin if she were a Democrat: “This woman is the stuff! She hunts! She fishes! She runs a state! She fights corruption in her own party! She raises a family! She came up from the ranks, she’s not an elitist, she’s not a professional politician! Her husband is in the union! She can speak without teleprompters!” He’d be spitting all over himself and his leg would be trembling.

Lost in all of this Palinsanity is a very important story that we’re losing site of: the US - terrible, Imperial America - has returned the Anbar Province to the control of the Iraqis. Please take the time to read this important piece by Steve Schippert, which helps us to understand and appreciate what that really means. If you’re too bug-eyed with Palin-mania right now, print it out and read it in bed, tonight. You’ll be glad you did.

Where is the sane Democrat who is going to stand up and say “that is enough?” Is there one? Is there a Democrat out there who is not simply marching in lockstep goose-step, and who will stand up and say, “you have crossed all kinds of lines, now…”

You’d think Hillary - champion of women and children - would be standing up for Palin and Bristol, wouldn’t you?

Meantime, my son asked me to put all of my Palin post up to now in one place. He can always go to the category Sarah Palin, but I will list them all, below. Enjoy some fun buttons designed by my friend Shana, and below you will find yet another collection of Palin links.

All my Palinpieces so far:
AnchorPoll: Has Sex Ed Eliminated Teen Pregnancy? Lib Men: Foul, Vile & Ignorant on Palin, Sarah & Bristol Melt Down the Haters, Bristol Pregnant: Watch “tolerant” & “intolerant”, Sew the Scarlet A for Sarah Palin, Palin; Bad Mother, Bad Woman!, Telethon Convention & More, Gov. Palin, Talkin’ Energy, (and making too much damn sense!) Obama/McCain/Palin & Generosity, Sarah Palin & a servant’s heart, Palin brings GOP Flavor in ‘08, Liveblogging Palin!, Palin or Pawlenty, Does Brokaw remember Carter?, Kennedy, Obama, Palin, Hillary’s Screams!

Bloomberg: McCain is figuring it out, the press only loved him when he was going against his own party… Hmmm…by that reasoning…they should LOVE Sarah Palin, who fought corruption in her own party!

Someone sent this to me, I don’t know who said it first:

On Thursday Barack Obama made an acceptance speech and the Democrats obediently fell in line. On Friday, John McCain introduced Sarah Palin; when she made her speech, the GOP fell in love.

There is some truth in that.

Politico: New Palin details may help rather than hurt. Uh, yeah, especially as the left reveals themselves to be women-hating, narrow-minded sexists and misogynists who never meant all the things they said about powerful, smart women and the choices they make.

Mirabile Dictu Mommy Wars, well Hillary DID say that there was more sexism than racism in the nation (and in the media, didn’t she? Or was that Ferraro?

Ace: Nation in Crisis, Day 2 (Yes, look what a youthful pregnancy and the family values that support her and love her have wrought among the “sophisticated, edumacated and enlightened!”)

Newsweek’s Jonathan Alter: when asked to defend the press’ overboard hysteria about Bristol Palin (and how her mother should “go home and parent her”) vs Al Gore’s son being picked up for driving 100 mph while on pot, (which did not necessitate concerns about Gore’s parenting); he justifies it all! After all, Gore’s son’s pickup was “in the papers…”. Yes, I recall a few lines about it, in section B. Some comparison. Can I say that Alter is a bit of an asshat? Is that allowed?

Dems: make it easy to screw with Palin’s Social Security Number. Yes, this is beyond anything I’ve ever seen. This really may justify using the word FASCISM, after all.

I need to get away from this for a little while. This seems quite evil to me. Prayers are important.

NEED TO WATCH THE VIDEOS ABOUT FRAUD IN DEMOCRAT SITE

The last straw
Pagan Power ^ | November 2, 2008 | Pagan Power

Posted on Sunday, November 02, 2008 7:21:55 AM by Pagan Power

I shamelessly stole the video below from Ms Placed Democrat, a wonderful, insightful person I had the opportunity to meet in Denver this summer. And quite honestly, if I hadn't seen the video I wouldn't have believed it existed. It's one thing to hear whispers about alleged voter intimidation, about attempts at voter suppression. It's quite another to make that charge publicly when you are supposedly a non-political entity.

So the truth is out there now. Proven truth. ACORN is squarely in the Obama camp and they make no effort to hide it. Even worse, they have made these accusations against their verifiable voter registration fraud a referendum on racism, which this ad makes no effort to conceal. In their view, requiring blacks to live up the same standards as whites is racism. That's the long and the short of it. And this particular white person that has fought for and respected equal rights for everyone my entire adult lifetime has finally had enough.

Requiring that people prove they have the legal right to vote is not racism. It is a commonly accepted practice. We are required to prove who we say we are in order to obtain a driver's license. We are required to prove who we say we are in order to obtain a social security card. We are required to prove who we say we are when we apply for a reputable job. We are required to prove who we say we are when we get a loan. So just how is it any form of discrimination to prove who we say we are when we register to vote?

Quite evidently it is not.

I don't know about the rest of you, but I have been accused of being a racist one too many times. And frankly, it's hard not to become one considering the frivolous manner in which the accusations fly. It challenges me on a daily basis. But I remember my core and do my absolute best to treat everyone as an equal regardless of these heinous accusations. I owe it to myself, the Goddess and humanity.

I wish I could tell you that this troubling trend will end at the conclusion of this election cycle. But I am certain that this is merely a prelude of what is to become. No matter who wins, this is only going to get much worse. And I don't look forward to it.

Hope you’re happy with the result - double digit unemployment and no jobs for your kids.
