With Colin Powell now repeating the lie that Barack Obama has "always been a Christian," despite new information further confirming Obama's Muslim childhood (such as the Indonesian school registration listing him as Muslim), one watches with dismay as the Democratic candidate manages to hide the truth on this issue.
Instead, then, let us review a related subject Obama's connections and even indebtedness, throughout his career, to extremist Islam. Specifically, he has longstanding, if indirect ties to two institutions, the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), listed by the U.S. government in 2007 as an unindicted co-conspirator in a Hamas-funding trial; and the Nation of Islam (NoI), condemned by the Anti-Defamation League for its "consistent record of racism and anti-Semitism."
First, Obama's ties to Islamists:

I never liked McCain, but...I've never doubted his loyalty to AMERICA.
Could you imagine administrating a full scope polygraph on him?
“All of your government computers are belong to us!”
Line 3 (Citizenship) Indonesia
Line 4 (Religion) Islam
Apparantly half of the country according to the polls. Now it is my understanding that ELECTED OFFICIALS are the will of the people and do not have to have any security clearances. And Bush has had both McCAin and Obama to national security meetings..go figure.
Obama couldn’t qualify to be his own bodyguard!
Folks who think religion is irrelevant have no difficulty justifying lies about the candidate’s religion. It’s sort of like “He lied about sex.”
He could not even qualify for the secret clearence I had in the Marines. Avaition electronics tech. Electronic Counter Measures. F-4J
I had a conversation recently with an Army veteran who had the highest security clearance when he served. I asked him if he thought Obama would have been able to get that security clearance, and the vet responded, “absolutely not”. They do a thorough check of your background...including your family and friends, etc.
Also, I was listening to an online radio show the other day and they played an advertisement for the CIA seeking people who might be interested in a job with them. At the end of the ad, they state that you must be a citizen of the United States...and I highly doubt they just take your word for it. And yet Obama can run for president and refuse to show his! Maybe he was born here, maybe he wasn’t...but the fact that he refuses to show a document that every other citizen has to show in a miriad of circumstances, is beyond audacious.
Well, here’s the good news. Consider that because they aren’t subject to security clearances (I know, seems ludicrous), presidents likely don’t get black program top secret military clearances. So BHO’s promise to cut specific defense programs and militarization of space would be tough to do, if he won’t be granted access to most of what the military is working on currently. So maybe we should be grateful he can’t get a security clearance, and therefore maybe he’ll never know about some of the most important defense strategies going on behind the “wall.” LOL...I love our military. Defend the constitution against ALL enemies, foreign or domestic (even if it’s the president!)
One of the questions I had to answer yes or no to on a polygraph for security clearances was whether or not I ever associated with anyone who supported the overthrow of the USG. If I had been Obama I would have had an impossible time getting through that question. His associations with Ayers go way beyond just having him as a neighbor.
As Commander in Chief the President presides over all of the military, and there isn’t anything he is not entitled to know about. However there are things that could not be changed without Congress..so don’t think he won’t be able to make defense and military changes, if Dems get a non filibuster number.
Maybe he’s entitled to know, but that doesn’t mean he does. I know for a fact, you can’t know anything about black defense programs unless you’ve been cleared. I don’t think Obama would be cleared. It currently takes a year to get the first lowest level of security clearance...longer for deep black programs. Our defense department is very thorough. If he has all these red flags, I guarantee you, they won’t tell him anything he can’t know without the highest level of clearance. I trust our defense department.
“Of course, the CIA needs folks. The smart people are raking in the money through the private sector.”
It appears as though you missed my point. I mentioned the ad because they clearly stated in that ad that one must be a citizen of the United States of America.
There really is a new site called youth4obama.com
I got your point. I was just making an off topic point. : )
