What's additionally bothersome is that Bill & Barry's Chicago has one of the largest populations of Muslim-African-Americans in America.

IMO Greta is not the knee jerk liberal she was when she began her Fox career. And I think she is taking an interesting tack in asking for audience input into her “investigation”. IMO, compared to the rest of the so-called Fox all-star debate analysts (emphasis on anal) she did a credible job dealing with the spin in the “spin room”.

Three Members of Obama's Church Killed May 26, 2008 12:06 AM EDT

Investigator close to case believes there's more to the brutal murders than mainstream press is letting on

By Victor Thorn

Is a Barack Obama bombshell lurking in the shadows, waiting to derail one of the biggest Cinderella stories in recent history?

While most political prognosticators in the mainstream press presume that Obama is the presumptive Democratic nominee for president, they still wonder aloud if Hillary Clinton (or some other entity) has something up their sleeve.

The bombshell may involve the murder of Donald Young, a 47-year-old choir master at former Rev. Jeremiah Wright's Trinity United Church of Christ—the same congregation that Obama has attended for the past 20 years. Two other young black men that attended the same church—Larry Bland and Nate Spencer—were also murdered execution style with bullets to the backs of their heads—all within 40 days of each other, beginning in November 2007. All three were openly homosexual.

What links this story to Barack Obama is that, according to an acquaintance of Obama, Larry Sinclair, Obama is a closet bisexual with whom he had sexual and drug-related encounters in November 1999.

Further, Sinclair claims that Obama was friendly with at least two of these deceased parishioners, and that choir director Donald had contacted him shortly before being murdered from multiple gunshot wounds on December 23, 2007.

These killings are receiving a number of different reactions. Mike Parker, reporting for CBS in Chicago, wrote, "Activists fear gay African-Americans are being targeted for murder," while Marc Loveless of the Coalition for Justice and Respect queries, "Are we under attack? Is this a serial killer?"

An even more sinister aspect of this case is being investigated. According to Sinclair in an affidavit to the Chicago Police Department, Donald Young had informed him that he and Barack Obama were "intimate" with each other. Sinclair, it should be noted, declared on a January 18, 2008, YouTube video that on two separate occasions in November 1999, he engaged in sexual acts with Obama, and that Obama smoked crack cocaine—once in a limousine and the other time at a hotel in Gurnee, Ill.

Sinclair has also asked: why would Young—whom he had never met—initiate these calls by contacting him on cell phone numbers known only in the Obama camp? Further, a private investigator connected to the Chicago Police Department told the Globe, "Donald Young was silenced because of something he knew about Obama. Donald was in a position where he heard a lot of things and saw a lot of things concerning Barack."

Another questionable Obama associate is openly homosexual. That person is Stanford law professor Lawrence Lessig, who was listed during the 2008 campaign as being part of Obama's "technology initiative."

In April, Lessig showed a video at a Google seminar entitled Jesus Christ: The Musical where "Jesus Christ lip-syncs Gloria Gaynor's late 1970s disco hit I Will Survive during which he strips down to just a diaper, effeminately struts along a city street, and finally gets run over by a speeding bus."

Are three murders within the span of 40 days among members of America's most discussed church—one run by the controversial Rev. Jeremiah Wright—enough to arouse the suspicions of Chicago law enforcement officials and members of the national media?

Or, as Sinclair wrote in a May 18 email, was the murder of Young "made to look similar to other recent murders as to make it look as if it were a hate crime" because he had become a political liability?

One can only hope that this isn't the beginning of another body count eerily reminiscent of that associated with Bill and Hillary Clinton.

Lots of interesting connections in this article, The Tides of Socialims are Upon us. According to the article.....

"The Tides Center/Foundation is a major source of funding at the center of a bunch of very bad actors, all dedicated to defeating free market capitalism and replacing it with socialism. Below, I detail some of the connections I have noticed between ACORN, Tides, Democrat Socialists of America, CAIR, and the Congressional Progressive Caucus. If you have ever wondered where the apparent Democrat/Socialist/Islamist collaboration originates from, this looks like a major center of gravity."...........

...................."Refresher course - The Chairman of the Board of the Tides Center is none other than ACORN founder wade Rathke.

So, the same organization (ACORN) that is financially supported by Barack Obama, Bill Clinton, and the federal government is directly connected via Wade Rathke, to support for the American chapter of the Socialist Party, and the Congressional Progressive Caucus, via the Tides Center/Foundation. What a cesspool.".....

According to the article:

............"Who funds the Tides Center/Foundation? The list is long but here are some that jump off the page:

1) The Woods Fund (An Obama directed donation?)
2) ACORN (Go figure)
3) The Federal Government
4) George Soros
5) Theresa Heinz Kerry
".....

Interestingly, the author contends that not only is TIDES funded by ACORN, but it also supports ACORN.

The entire nation is listening to McCain’s words, wanting to see if he “gets it” enough to be President especially at age 72, and if conservatives can trust him on domestic policy, and he throws out a clear-sounding “out-of-touch” line about the lack of threat from Ayers???

Just so he can tweak Ayers??

If so, very, very poor judgement indeed.

Personally, I don’t believe that’s why he said it.

Which is why I wrote that somebody needs to clue him in.

To each his own.

I watch Greta occasionally, mostly the crime stuff. Politically, how do you think Greta votes? I can’t remember any overt statements either left or right.

It all comes back to SDS... those are the ties that expose this whole web. What the Weather Underground failed through violent methods, ACORN now is attempting to accomplish through fraud and subversion.

This is a multi-decade operation coming to fruition now.

I don’t know who you mean “some Wiley lady in Arkansas that Bill Clinton raped”...

Or what connection that has to the subject of this thread.

But I’m thinking you might have confused the name of the woman in Washington DC who supported Clinton politically and held fund raisers for him in her home. Her name was Kathleen Willey.

Then her husband got in financial trouble and was very depressed, so she went to the Oval Office and asked Clinton to give her a paying job so she could relieve her family’s financial distress. Clinton took the opportunity to grope her in a most demeaning way, before she could leave. And never responded to her job request. When she got back home she found that her husband had committed suicide.

When she came forward and told her story the Clintons came after her in all their fury, to ruin her if they could.

She was also intimidated and threatened when first, her beloved cat disappeared, followed by a stranger who jogged by her house and spoke to her in an oddly menacing fashion, then said, “by the way, did you ever find out what happened to your cat”? And she believes now she knows who that stranger was and that he was threatening her on behalf of the Clintons.

Is that where you are getting the name “Wiley” from?

http://organizersforum.org/index.php?id=362

Wade is the Chair of the Organizers’ Forum.

The Organizers’ Forum also became a project of the Tides Center based in San Francisco in order to handle our administrative affairs and house the operation. This development dovetailed nicely with Barbara’s location in the Bay Area which allows us to coordinate directly and effectively with the Tides Center there while directing the operations from there and New Orleans. In 2000 we received a planning grant to begin the development process of the Organizers’ Forum from the Frontera Fund which enabled us to move to a fuller range of activity in 2001.

Board

As a first, and critical, step, we have convened a Board from among those who have participated in our initial discussions. The following people have agreed to serve as the Board of the Organizers’ Forum:

• Andy Stern, President, Service Employees International Union, Washington DC

• Mark Splain, Special Assistant, Department of Organizing, AFL-CIO, San Francisco/DC

• Mary Gonzales, Associate Director, Gamaliel Foundation, Chicago

• John Calkins, Executive Director, Direct Action Research Training, Miami

• Miguel Contreras, President, Los Angeles County AFL-CIO, Los Angeles

• Rev. Jim Sessions, Executive Director, Union Community Fund, Knoxville/DC

• Ken Johnson, Southern Regional Director, AFL-CIO, Atlanta

• Drummond Pike, President, Tides Foundation, San Francisco

• Pat Sweeney, Executive Director, Western Org Resource Councils, Billings, MT

• Michael Kieschnick, President, Working Assets Funding Service, San Francisco

• Tho Thi Do, Secretary-Treasurer, Local #2, Hotel Employees and Restaurant Employees Union (HERE), San Francisco

• Deepak Bhargava, Executive Director, Center for Community Change (CCC), Washington DC

• Phaedra Ellis-Lamkins, Executive Officer, South Bay AFL-CIO Labor Council & Executive Director, Working Partnerships, USA, San Jose, CA

• Wade Rathke, Chief Organizer, ACORN, HOTROC, & SEIU 100, New Orleans

The board has committed to an annual meeting and planning process in New Orleans, which allows direct discussion and decisions, and allows us to most efficiently utilize the time availability of the very busy people who have consented to this stewardship for the Organizers’ Forum.

Staff, Organization, Office, and Seed Money

We were fortunate to find and hire a coordinator for the Organizers’ Forum: Barbara Bowen. Barb is an organizer whose career spans thirty years of work with the National Welfare Rights Organization, ACORN, Project VOTE, SEIU, and the AFL-CIO. We could not have found anyone with more breadth of organizing experience, so this serves us exceptionally well in translating the many voices of organizers into a solid, dynamic program.

I watch her enough to strongly sense that she supported Hillary not Obama.

And that now she is likely for McCain, not Obama.

She hasn’t said this, but I sense it from watching what she does with political stories.

And we know for a fact that her husband supported Hillary and now is openly for McCain.

I agree. This election I feel Greta has maintained objectivity, while her "dig for the truth" instincts have led her to the obvious that we all have concluded. Let's hope she is allowed to pursue this and report it before being squelched...and before the elections.

However, if by some horrible result, Obama does win, let's hope these investigations do not stop. With Obama's connections to ACORN (who are now saying they are Obama's "economic advisor" - FreeRepublic Oct 16 2008 ) Ayers; his Fannie/Freddie relationship; and his other close ties to anti-American hate-mongers, maybe impeachment won't be just a hope. Biden would be less of a threat to our nation, but more importantly, Obama will be outed for the fraud and Marxist that he really is.

And, there is always still the question of Obama's non-produced birth certificate. I know many feel this is not important any more - but, if it is not a big issue to cover up, then why hasn't Obama shown the actual original? And why is there still the story that his African grandmother said she was "in the room" when Obama was born in Africa? Has anyone asked his white grandmother in Hawaii, where she was when Obama was born? Why has no one talked to her or her husband? I would think Obama's American grandmother would have been with her only daughter when she was having the first grandchild. That is, of course, if the daughter was actually in Hawaii - which seems to be doubtful. And the point some try to make that if Obama was born to a U.S. citizen, even in a foreign country, he is still a citizen must not apply for some undisclosed reason. Again, if that is true, and his mother had maintained her U.S. citizenship and not renounced it for citizenship someplace else, then...again...why the hesitation to produce the birth certificate? Producing the actual certificate would clear up the question - but there must be a reason that Obama has not done so and left this issue unclear.

If you mean the spelling of the name, that’s ok, only one letter “l” was different.

But the key to it is, was there an Arkansas connection?, because that is what you were asking about.

No, because the famous Kathleen Willey was not from Arkansas but from Virginia just outside DC, and the incident in question happened in the Oval Office.

They are a well-known couple in legal and political circles. Both are attorneys and politically active, apparently most recently for Bill Clinton and then for Hillary. Her husband is supporting and raising money for McCain.

No, I had the connection and the name wrong. It looks as there was no connection to anything in this thread topic.

I just made a mistake.

All,
Either a 527 comes out to akin to the Swift Boats and mentions:

* birth certificate
* Ayers
* Acorn
* etc.

or, “a tree has fallen in the woods and no one cares if it made a sound or not”...our side says it did, but our side is already informed...

It’s the 6% or so, undecideds that McCain is playing to...and, he seems to have placed his bets that discussing these items from HIS mouth won’t win over anyone.

I’m convinced it’s the LOCAL commercials that mention these items that he’s playing to...in the BATTLEGROUND states.

Otherwise, I think he would have hit on these in the debates.

You see, I believe he knows he can count on our votes and mentioning these things won’t do any good to the 44% of the vote that will still vote for Obama even if he commits a felony (heck, he likely has already).

That’s my take...we’re wasting energy complaining to ourselves...let’s start a thread on what 527 ads they’re seeing which mention the aforementioned items.
