When this is all over (this Presidential campaign) it’s going to be obvious that what we are experiencing is a new level of liar in politicians.

His brazen lying about his present and his past beats anything I have ever seen, even in a politician. He lies about things that can be CHECKED, and his lies openly refuted. He seems to believe that if he keeps on lying about it, his media and leftist posse will cover for him. Of course, the Clintons did too (and still do).

It seems part of his arrogance is believing he can sell anything to the American people when he has the complicit media with him.

What I don’t understand is why the dirt digging started only in June? Everybody knew his position. Throughout the 2007 and early 2008 nobody in RNC or conservative blogs looked at those files?

The "new level of liar" is only possible because we're also seeing a new level of bias and side-choosing from the MSM, which seems to be reacting to the dimunition of their power as a result of the internet by dropping any pretense of objectivity and turning themselves into an off-budget propaganda department for the far left of the Democrat party. Which, to be fair, is pretty much all of the Democrat party.

But, you know, I remember 1992 reasonably well, and the MSM was whole-heartedly behind Bill Clinton back then. I mean, to the extent they're doing things today they weren't doing back then, it's only because they handn't thought of them yet.

You're right. If they could just figure out how to shut off all opposing viewpoints, we would quickly descend into Soviet Union or Red Chinese territory. Can anyone say 'Fairness Doctrine'?

Thank God for talk radio and Fox News (despite all the grousing about them, they will still allow the truth to get out about the Dems). No wonder Obama is yelling about them, that ability to still get the truth out is what is killing him right now.

Where did the money come from? How were the awards decided....and then, where did it really go??

The run for president of the United States can be summed up as a long, arduous and exhausting job interview. We have the right and the responsibility to know EXACTLY what makes Barack Hussein Obama fit for the job of leader of the free world.

And Barack Hussein Obama is holding out. He's hiding behind a terrorist and expecting the American people to hire him.

The UIC Library says it is acting on behalf of the donor, whom it refuses to name.

Wouldn't the donor be Bill Ayers?

It was his enterprise.

And he flopped big time, squandering lots of money and the time of many public employees in the process.

Since when has total and utter failure of a program made a liberal decide that it was a waste of money? This is the 'Rats' plan on a mini scale. Click here for Michelle Malkin's column on the Democrats' publicly funded slush fund to reward liberals

Add in the fact that former Weatherman and admitted terrorist William Ayers (whom Obama described in the Philadelphia debate as merely a "neighbor") was head of the operating arm of the CAC

Wouldn't that make the CAC a terrorist organization?

To: Renfield; All
From David Horowitz's FrontPageMag.com/DiscoverTheNetworks.org:
"FBI files from 1976, recently made public under the Freedom of Information Act, confirm the connections between Weatherman, Havana, and Moscow. Weatherman leaders like Mark Rudd traveled illegally to Havana in 1968 to engage in terrorist training. There, camps set up by Soviet KGB Colonel Vadim Kotchergine were educating Westerners both in Marxist philosophy and urban warfare."

"It seems part of his arrogance is believing he can sell anything to the American people when he has the complicit media with him."

His arrogance is just the epitome of the arrogance of all Democrats. Each one knows he or she is the smartest person in the room. They make little jokes to themselves and think they're the only ones that truly get it.

Most importantly, they they can sell anything to the American people if they package it right and sell it with sufficiently floral words because there IS a sucker born every minute.

The worst part is that, in a way, they're right. If the left couldn't sell $hit in a shiny gold wrapper to the American people, the race wouldn't be so close.
