ABC News Sunlen Miller Reports: Presidential hopeful Sen. Barack Obama D-Ill., stopped for a little soul food with Al Sharpton in Harlem Thursday evening. Arriving together in the same car, the two were flanked by people on the street outside the popular soul food restaurant, "Sylvia's" in the heart of Harlem. Obama yelled, "We gon’ shake up the world," as he entered the restaurant side by side with Sharpton. The two sat down at a table alone and ate cornbread after greeting a few people eating in the restaurant.

"Nooses, the 'n' word, a Klansman's hood, and the burning cross are the clearest symbols of hate for black America," --Al Sharpton, in remarks prepared for the House Judiciary Committee Chutzpah is often defined as murdering one's parents and then asking the court for mercy as an orphan, although the image of a violent pimp who beats and rapes his women and then talks about chastity and women's rights also comes to mind. The above statement probably takes the grand prize for chutzpah, not merely this year but for all time. If Sharpton dislikes the N word so much, perhaps...

The National Jewish Democratic Council is again trying to downplay, deny, and whitewash the vicious anti-Semitic hate speech that is coming from the Democratic Left. We are surprised that the NJDC would again bring itself to our attention in this manner, noting its own publication of anti-Semitic and anti-Christian hate propaganda. Nonetheless, we are always delighted to accommodate them, and we will take this opportunity to remind them that we asked them for their position on Al Sharpton, MoveOn.org, and Jeremiah Wright.

It is inconceivable that any candidate could expect to be elected President after making statements like these or similar ones, but Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama, and John Edwards have done exactly that. They have openly endorsed a prominent racist and anti-Semite whose hate speech played at least an indirect role in inciting two violent incidents in which people were killed: the Crown Heights riots and the arson of a Jewish-owned store in Harlem. The source is not some Republican blog, but the racist and anti-Semitic hate organization itself. It is vital that readers circulate this information as widely as possible...

The "diamond merchants" sure got a clue, When my mob rampaged and screamed, "Kill the Jew!" They found one, name of Yankel Rosenbaum The brother that knifed him was no Uncle Tom. They rioted and screamed, that was a fact Like the Nazis did, on good old Kristallnacht.* Four years later, we gave Whitey straight dope Harlem's a...

I have enjoyed a long and positive relationship with David Duke and the Ku Klux Klan, and I don’t ever remember saying “no” to them and I intend to remain their partner in civil rights as I clean the dirt from under the carpet in the oval office when I am elected President. David Duke is a voice for the voiceless, and a voice for the dispossessed. What the Ku Klux Klan has done is so important to change America, and it must be changed from the bottom up. It is inconceivable that any candidate could expect to be elected...

anti-Semitic riots in Brooklyn's Crown Heights section erupted after 7-year old Gavin Cato, a black child, was accidentally killed by an out-of-control car driven by a Hasidic Jew. Within three hours, a black mob had hunted down and killed an innocent rabbinical student, Yankel Rosenbaum. Sharpton fanned the flames of racial hatred by publicly announcing that it was not merely a car accident that had killed Gavin Cato, but rather "the social accident of apartheid." He organized angry demonstrations and challenged local Jews -- who he derisively called "diamond merchants" -- to "pin their yarmulkes back and come over to...

arack Obama's and Hillary Clinton's recent attendance of Al Sharpton's National Action Network raises some disturbing questions, especially given allegations about Clinton's past record of making anti-Semitic statements. Jews Divided on Hillary Slur reports an allegation that, in 1974, she called Bill Clinton's campaign manager Paul Fray, whom she apparently blamed for losing a Congressional race for her husband, a "f**king Jew bastard." Meanwhile, stories about Obama's attendance at a madrasa, and his connection with a Black separatist minister, take on added seriousness in light of his recent visit to Al Sharpton's racist and anti-Semitic hate group. Under standards set,...

Sterling, Va., Feb. 4, 2007 – The sky was the limit for five wounded Iraq war veterans who met here Feb. 2 at Sport Rock Indoor Climbing Center. Disabled Sports USA and Wounded Warrior Disabled Sports Project sponsored the event that brought three double-leg amputees, one single-leg amputee and one soldier blinded during combat together to transcend their handicaps and climb toward recovery. Volunteers from Walter Reed Army Medical Center sat the amputees in wheelchairs and modified their prosthetic legs for the climb. Carbon-fiber foot shells, designed to absorb the impact of physical activity, replaced standard rubber feet. Rock-climbing...

LANTANA, Fla. Sep 13, 2006 (AP)— It seems a father's plan to cure his daughter's fear of heights fell short. Troy Stewart and his 10-year-old daughter were on their daily bike ride about 7:45 p.m. Monday when Stewart, 31, suggested they jump off a 15 foot bridge. Stewart held his daughter Meagan Stewart's hand as they jumped off the bridge into the Intracoastal Waterway, authorities said. "At first he said, `Do you want to do it or not?'" Meagan said. "I thought, `It's kind of high,' and then he's like, `Trust me.'" Meagan made the jump safely, but her father...

Syrians demand military action to reclaim Golan Heights By Patrick Bishop in Beirut (Filed: 18/08/2006) Bashar al-Assad praised Hizbollah's 'victory' Pressure is mounting on Bashar al-Assad, the Syrian president, to follow Hizbollah's example and consider force to eject Israel from Syrian land that it has occupied for nearly 40 years. The public appetite for action is just one of the uncomfortable consequences regional rulers are facing, as Arabs compare their leaders' performances over Israel with the Lebanese "resistance". Mr Assad, who supports Hizbollah, was quick to praise the militia's "victory" in a post-conflict speech and to bathe in its reflected...
