So, we need YOUR ideas for protest signs - asap.
What do YOU think?
Please post your SIGN IDEAS here!
Thanks Ron. You’re a ton of help.
“The TRUTH is never a smear.”
I need something that is concise and will fit on my sign board and makes the point. What do you think about: “WHY IS THE L.A. TIMES COVERING FOR OBAMA?”
That’s a good one. There are several I’ve seen in 3 threads.
The most important thing is to show and bring your sign.
Thx,
Joe
Great idea...looking forward to hearing how it goes.
I am just a PROMOTER, though...This FReep was the idea of others.
I will do my best to provide PICTURES and VIDEO from this event here -- soon.
Perhaps we could meet for lunch somewhere -- while we wait for Part TWO...
The more the merrier. ;)
BHO himself will hear of this before the day is out.
I can’t wait. I feel like a kid at Christmas.
There’s going to be people coming and going all day probably.
The people who can’t make the LAT site need to stay on the media and get more bodies there. There will be PUMAs there in the AM as well.

Very good. Sounds like you folks are on a roll. All the best to you.
A newspaper without credibility =
a hooker without a _ _ _ _ _ _!
Because he has promised them a government bailout if they do?
Go Pajama Patrol!
Please keep this thread BUMPED for the next few hours -- while I am off-line, preparing. :o)I will report back with PHOTOS and VIDEO -- here, and on a post-FReep thread, later today.
THANK YOU!FReep Obama, and his "pet" newspaper, the L.A. Times:
RELEASE THE
OBAMA
VIDEO
NOW!
This really disappoints me, but I have business that I cannot change.
THANK YOU!
As conservatives, we must always balance our "FReep time" with the higher priorities of a JOB, a LIFE and a FAMILY...
...unlike many of our opponents, who have none of the above. :o)We will MISS you, but as we say, there is ALWAYS a "next" time.
If you do have time to call of few of your talk radio producer buddies, though -- sometime today -- that would be GREAT!

L.A. Times Has Video Of Obama At Jew Bashing Party
Posted by jtfdotorg on October 26, 2008
A very well deserved hat tip to Gateway Pundit.
According to Gateway, the L.A. Times is holding a video of Obama attending a going away party for former P.L.O. operative Rashid Khalidi, who was then moving to New York to accept the position at the fakestinian loving Columbia University.
The L.A. Times actually wrote about this Jew bashing orgy in April 2008.
CHICAGO — It was a celebration of Palestinian culture — a night of music, dancing and a dash of politics. Local Arab Americans were bidding farewell to Rashid Khalidi, an internationally known scholar, critic of Israel and advocate for Palestinian rights, who was leaving town for a job in New York.
A special tribute came from Khalidi’s friend and frequent dinner companion, the young state Sen. Barack Obama. Speaking to the crowd, Obama reminisced about meals prepared by Khalidi’s wife, Mona, and conversations that had challenged his thinking.
His many talks with the Khalidis, Obama said, had been “consistent reminders to me of my own blind spots and my own biases. . . . It’s for that reason that I’m hoping that, for many years to come, we continue that conversation — a conversation that is necessary not just around Mona and Rashid’s dinner table,” but around “this entire world.”
{snip}
At Khalidi’s 2003 farewell party, for example, a young Palestinian American recited a poem accusing the Israeli government of terrorism in its treatment of Palestinians and sharply criticizing U.S. support of Israel. If Palestinians cannot secure their own land, she said, “then you will never see a day of peace.”
One speaker likened “Zionist settlers on the West Bank” to Osama bin Laden, saying both had been “blinded by ideology.”
Obama adopted a different tone in his comments and called for finding common ground. But his presence at such events, as he worked to build a political base in Chicago, has led some Palestinian leaders to believe that he might deal differently with the Middle East than either of his opponents for the White House.
{snip}
Among other community events, Obama in 1998 attended a speech by Edward Said, the late Columbia University professor and a leading intellectual in the Palestinian movement. According to a news account of the speech, Said called that day for a nonviolent campaign “against settlements,against Israeli apartheid.”
{snip}
Ali Abunimah, a Palestinian rights activist in Chicago who helps run Electronic Intifada, said that he met Obama several times at Palestinian and Arab American community events. At one, a 2000 fundraiser at a private home, Obama called for the U.S. to take an “even-handed” approach toward Israel, Abunimah wrote in an article on the website last year. He did not cite Obama’s specific criticisms.
Anyway, getting back to Rashid Khalidi:
In the 1970s, when Khalidi taught at a university in Beirut, he often spoke to reporters on behalf of Yasser Arafat’s Palestine Liberation Organization. In the early 1990s, he advised the Palestinian delegation during peace negotiations. Khalidi now occupies a prestigious professorship of Arab studies at Columbia.
{snip}
While teaching at the University of Chicago, Khalidi and his wife lived in the Hyde Park neighborhood near the Obamas. The families became friends and dinner companions.
In 2000, the Khalidis held a fundraiser for Obama’s unsuccessful congressional bid. The next year, a social service group whose board was headed by Mona Khalidi received a $40,000 grant from a local charity, the Woods Fund of Chicago, when Obama served on the fund’s board of directors.
{snip}
The event was videotaped, and a copy of the tape was obtained by The Times.
Though Khalidi has seen little of Sen. Obama in recent years, Michelle Obama attended a party several months ago celebrating the marriage of the Khalidis’ daughter.
Furthermore, Gateway posts that Khalidi was also good friends with William Ayres.
Gateway then writes:
So, there you have it.
The LA Times has video of Obama toasting a former PLO operative at a Jew-bash but will not release the video.
This is outrageous.
Obviously, this video would do great damage to Obama who struggles with Jewish voters due to his circle of close anti-Semitic friends.
Maybe this is the reason it is not being released?
I totally agree that this is outrageous.
