Breakthrough on the Authorship of Obama's 'Dreams' !!!!!

angkor,

I support a direct, uncomplicated approach:

“Where Are The Notes And The First Draft?”

That should make a nice companion billboard for “Where's The Birth Certificate?”

[WhistlingPastTheGraveyard]

“Dreams” is the foundation of the President’s political career. That it was written almost entirely by a Maoist terrorist is indeed news. In the eight months Jack has been “flogging” this story, he’s made a devastating case that that is exactly what happened.

If you expect Jack Cashill to be one of the thousand pundits writing opinion pieces on cap and trade or Obamacare, you don’t know the man very well. That’s not what he does, it’s not what he’s ever done. Cashill works to expose lies. Whether it’s TWA 800, Oklahoma City or the authorship of “Dreams”... that’s what he does. And many of us think he does a damn good job of presenting the facts and making his case.

You don’t like Jack Cashill, that much is obvious. What strikes me as odd is the fact that you’ve spent more time attacking him and his story in this thread (70 posts by you, and counting) than you have on any other thread dealing with the issues you say he should be writing about. Just looking at your recent posts, you seem to have written more about Michael Jackson than you have about cap and trade. But somehow Cashill and the authorship issue are a frivolous distraction?

You’ve gone above and beyond any reasonable dissent and into thread hijacking. One out of every four posts in this thread belongs to you. Did you really need 70+ posts to let it be known that this story isn’t worthy of your time? Because it seems like shouting it down as frequently as humanly possible is your top priority.

Obama Gave Bill Ayers' Book a Rave Review

From The Weekly Standard, 'Barack Obama's Lost Years', 08/11/2008:

"Ayers opposes trying even the most vicious juvenile murderers as adults. Beyond that, he'd like to see the prison system itself essentially abolished. Unsatisfied with mere reform, Ayers wants to address the deeper 'structural problems of the system.' Drawing explicitly on Michel Foucault, a French philosopher beloved of radical academics, Ayers argues that prisons artificially impose obedience and conformity on society, thereby creating a questionable distinction between the 'normal' and the 'deviant.' The unfortunate result, says Ayers, is to leave the bulk of us feeling smugly superior to society's prisoners. Home detention, Ayers believes, might someday be able to replace the prison. Ayers also makes a point of comparing America's prison system to the mass-detention of a generation of young blacks under South African Apartheid. Ayers's tone may be different, but the echoes of Jeremiah Wright's anti-prison rants are plain."

We can focus on more than one thing at a time. Please, do not put YOUR limitations upon us.

capntrade passed by 7 votes. if all the energy put into birth certs and ghost authors was brought down as pressure on those reps capntrade would have never made it out of the house..AND IT WOULDNT HAVE BEEN CLOSE! and you know it.

You don't seem to understand how the House works. If all eight republicans had switched their votes, a sufficient number of democrats in vulnerable districts would have switched their votes and it would have passed anyway. The republican votes did nothing but provide political cover to an equivalent number of democrats in competitive districts.

Besides, no one was talking about the BC or "Dreams" authorship last week. We were all 100% focused on cap and trade.

And oh yeah... welcome to FR. Glad you managed to sign up in time to lecture us on what's really important.

You don’t even know how to compose a coherent sentence. Everything you write comes across like a teenage girl texting her peeps.

But you know how the House works? “LOL”, indeed.

Protest! Protest now! before the Senate goes off to “think” about it for the summer.

a newbie who SHOUTS like at DU, who uses the name "goldwater republican", whose tagline whines "stay out of my bedroom, doctors office and wallet" sounds very suspicious.

pissant, man your threads have both legs and entertainment value.

“We must not let our rulers load us with perpetual debt. We must make our selection between economy and liberty or profusion and servitude. If we run into such debts as that we must be taxed in our meat in our drink, in our necessities and comforts, in our labors and in our amusements, for our callings and our creeds...our people.. must come to labor sixteen hours in the twenty-four, give earnings of fifteen of these to the government for their debts and daily expenses; and the sixteenth being insufficient to afford us bread, we must live.. We have not time to think, no means of calling the mis-managers to account, but be glad to obtain subsistence by hiring ourselves to rivet their chains on the necks of our fellow suffers. Our landholders, too...retaining indeed the title and stewardship of estates called theirs, but held really in trust for the treasury, must...be contented with penury, obscurity and exile.. private fortunes are destroyed by public as well as by private extravagance.

This is the tendency of all human governments. A departure from principle becomes a precedent for a second; that second for a third; and so on, till the bulk of society is reduced to mere automatons of misery, to have no sensibilities left but for sinning and suffering... And the fore horse of this frightful team is public debt. Taxation follows that, and in it’s train wretchedness and oppression.”

Thomas Jefferson on Taxation and pubic debt
