Here is video of a CNN Investigative Report on the tactics Barack Obama used to launch his political career in Chicago. It's shocking that the report is coming from CNN. What Obama did is worse than "politics as usual," and it does not fit in with the false image he has, so far, passed off to the American people that he is a unifying, inclusive candidate. (see video)

Whoa! Little harsh on the poster don’t you think? This was a video about Barack Obama. Show me where he mentioned John McCain.
One of the interesting things about his initial political massacre is that he immediately blamed it on everyone else - he was “just doing what his lawyers told him,” etc. But he was the one who had to decide to go ahead on this, and obviously he simply asked his attorneys for the best way of eliminating his opposition and then did it. He later blew his claim of innocence by apologizing to the black “civil rights icon” he knocked out of the box through lawyering and then claimed that, in any case, she had said she wasn’t going to run again so she was the vicious one, not he.
Obama is stupid, but, like Al Sharpton, not dumb. He knows how to manipulate, when to take “credit,” how to shift blame, and most of all, how to keep his followers (97% of US blacks, supposedly) at such a fever pitch that nobody will even dare to contest his claims. I have already seen people here dreading what will happen if he loses the general election or if he by some fluke he is actually rejected in Denver.
It comes from a site called blogs for McCain.
McCain awards bloggers to spead his vile form of Socialism on the web with points that allow them to buy stuff from his website.
It’s a weekday now and these pro-McCainer’s will be posting this crap every 10 minutes.
I think Obama is the single most dangerous figure in American politics in more than a century. He is “the Mule” from Isaac Asimov’ “Foundation Trilogy.” He is a demagogue, willing to do anything for power. He may even be more power hungry than the clintons, and believe it or not, is far less qualified by experience, intelligence or character to be entrusted with it. Slick Willie was at least governor of a state, and while something of a corrupt southern bubba in the White House, he at least knew enough to not seriously push plans that would entirely wreck the American economy. Obama does not have any such sense. In the pursuit of power, he’ll gladly kill the Golden Goose. Probably by his usual modus operandi: by throwing it under the bus.
Better the McCain I know than the Obama I don’t...
McCain is awful and I am sorry that he’s our candidate, but Osama Obama would be a heck of a lot worse. McCain’s appointments would be better (for one thing, Al Sharpton wouldn’t be a Supreme Court justice) and his cabinet will be better.
There is no way anybody should (a) vote for Obama or (b) vote for a third party. That’s just another vote for Obama.
You’re working hard to get Obama elected, stockpirate, and I’d say people like you will be posting garbage like yours every 10 minutes.
Obama uses dirt to eliminate the State Senate opponents. Then he uses dirt to get the opponent’s divorce files opened to put the final hit on the Illinois US Senate seat race. Now the empty suit talks about a change and new tone in Washington.
I just hope dirt can sink that blank resume’ as quickly as it sent him up.
In the septic tank of politics, the big chunks rise to the top.

One of these candidates will determine what we are going to do to stop Iran from going nuclear-- or whether we are going to do anything other than talk, as Western leaders talked in the 1930s.
There is one big difference between now and the 1930s. Although the West's lack of military preparedness and its political irresolution led to three solid years of devastating losses to Nazi Germany and imperial Japan, nevertheless when all the West's industrial and military forces were finally mobilized, the democracies were able to turn the tide and win decisively.
But you cannot lose a nuclear war for three years and then come back. You cannot even sustain the will to resist for three years when you are first broken down morally by threats and then devastated by nuclear bombs.
Our one window of opportunity to prevent this will occur within the term of whoever becomes President of the United States next January.
At a time like this, we do not have the luxury of waiting for our ideal candidate or of indulging our emotions by voting for some third party candidate to show our displeasure-- at the cost of putting someone in the White House who is not up to the job.
Senator John McCain has been criticized in this column many times. But, when all is said and done, Senator McCain has not spent decades aiding and abetting people who hate America.
On the contrary, he has paid a huge price for resisting our enemies, even when they held him prisoner and tortured him. The choice between him and Barack Obama should be a no-brainer.

I agree, the Clintons were awful but they were awful within the normal range of awful Dem possibilities. Obama goes way, way beyond that, and he has a personal desire for power that I don't think even Bill had. Bill just wanted the bimbos and other perks. Hillary wanted to be a liberal star and get her socialized medicine through, but even she didn't see herself with sea of upraised arms (which Obama clearly wants in his future).
You hit the nail on the head! That is exactly what is so downright frightening about Obama winning the American presidency.
