As requested.
I screwed up the date. It should have been Feb 28.
D-13??!!!
Like that kick a** French movie?
Cool.
Thank you so much. This is my favorite part:
“He was just 35 when in 1996 he won his first bid for political office. Even many of his staunchest supporters, such as Black, still resent the strong-arm tactics Obama employed to win his seat in the Illinois Legislature.
Obama hired fellow Harvard Law alum and election law expert Thomas Johnson to challenge the nominating petitions of four other candidates, including the popular incumbent, Alice Palmer, a liberal activist who had held the seat for several years, according to an April 2007 Chicago Tribune report.
Obama found enough flaws in the petition sheetsto appear on the ballot, candidates needed 757 signatures from registered voters living within the districtto knock off all the other Democratic contenders. He won the seat unopposed. “
So much for letting people make their own choices on a level playing field.
It’s pathetic that I’m reduced to cheering for Hillary Klinton and/or Juan McCain to put down this sleazebag.
Yeah, I’d vote for either in a heartbeat over this particular communist.
I didn’t think anyone was lower than the clintoons. I should have known better to think a dem had morals or character.
“Three years later, in January 2003, Obama announced his bid for the U.S. Senate, in which he cruised to victory thanks to the self-destruction of his top opponents in both the primary and general elections.
Obama joined a field of seven candidates vying to fill an open Senate seat being vacated by retiring two-term incumbent Peter Fitzgerald. For months, he polled in the middle of the pack behind frontrunner and former securities trader Blair Hull, who spent $30 million of his own fortune on the primary.
But Hull’s campaign imploded just weeks before the election when his divorce files were unsealed, revealing an ex-wife’s charges of verbal and physical abuse.
Later:
In the general election, Obama squared off against another multimillionaire: Jack Ryan, who later dropped out of the race after a judge ordered his divorce files unsealed. “
ALL OF HIS VICTORIES WERE MADE BY THE USE OF DIRTY TRICKS.

Wow, three years? And gee, Obama's got twice as much time on the job?
Anyone who has the audacity to run for president with such a non-existent track record is a bit too credulous for the job, I'd think.
Good read. Thanks for posting..

So you post a 2/28/08 story and change the date on it??
Cliff’s Notes version of article:
“Time and again he’s proven to me that he’s a corrupt a$$hole. But I like him anyways.”
Yep, that’s exactly what I did. But mark the date and the time, because that’s my first mistake this year.
Obama is a slime.
