|

Ladies and Gentlemen,
I think Obama is being revealed as far worse than John Kerry. Kerry may just be a garden variety opportunist, using questionable associations and political theatre to achieve power.
It seems Obama, however, by his associations may be a true radical.
See these posts and listen to the audio:

Couple these with the fact he has a personality and on the surface, he is a lot worse than Kerry.
Fortunately for us, he is not nearly as astute or cagey as Kerry. People, even the MSM are waking up to this. _________________ Why ask? Because it needs asking. |

Unfortunately Goophy, those "waking up to this" are most probably in the Clinton camp. As we have all learned first hand through our experience in support of SVPT, objectivity and the MSM are no longer synonymous.
Witness the following from yesterday's Fox News...then grab a shovel and toss some dirt on the grave of journalisticly principled, objective news...

Cover Controversy
Business & Media Institute reports that Time magazine managing editor Richard Stengel continues to defend the controversial cover showing a doctored version of the classic World War II raising of the flag at Iwo Jima — used to promote an advocacy piece on global warming.
As we told you last week, many veterans are incensed. Stengel says the cover was a way to "grab people by the lapels and say, 'Hey, pay attention.'"
Stengel also dismisses the idea that his magazine should not take sides: "This notion that journalism is objective -- or must be objective -- is something that has always bothered me, because the notion about objectivity is in some ways a fantasy. I don't know that there is as such a thing as objectivity… I don't think people are looking for us to ask questions, I think they're looking for us to answer questions."
As for the journalistic standards he observes at Time, Stengel said, "We sort of make it up as we go along and I think that is what will continue to happen."

You are absolutely right, BE.
I remember a letter to the editor of Time Magazine about 30 or 40 years ago bemoaning the lack of objectivity in an article about gun control.
Time's response was that "the issue was just too important for objectivity".
I haven't read that bilious rag since. |

Obama reminds me of Pol Pot. The only difference is Pol Pot liked the Khemer people, whereas I believe Obama hates black people and wants to further degrade their status in the society.
The issues most pressing for black society, Obama never discusses. I never hear him talk about the need for black women to practice abstinence to avoid disease and early pregnancy. He never discusses the importance of the husband and wife and marriage.
Never do I hear about the need to father and mother the children and spend time nurturing their development.
He talks about community, where the emphasis should be on the immediate family. A man who could care less about problems in the black family.
Just another radical leftist who has nothing but pl;ans for blacks to clean the toilets of their masters.
Another elitist who has nothing but disgust with black America and will never sit at the table with them, unless it is for a photo opportunity. _________________ "An activist is the person who cleans up the water, not the one claiming its dirty."

If Obama is the nominee, which is very likely, will there be Unfit for Command II?
Agree, the guy is far far worse than Kerry. I just don't know what and whose accounts can constitute the UFC II.
Perhaps...detail descriptions and implications of his relationships and contacts with the radicals. Hopefully any good and authoritative writer can put together these elements for publication in the summer or fall. _________________ All truth passes through three stages. First, it is ridiculed. Second, it is violently opposed. Third, it is accepted as being self-evident. |

Is that plagerized from Dan Rather's resume?
I just can't work up a good hatred for Obama, considering the two opponents are as bad or worse. McCain's POW/MIA issues lost him my vote, so I'll sit this one out. |

Obama is about race now because Wright and the left blacks are making it all about white vs black. Then they get out there and say a black can't be racist because the power is not on the side of the black race. Maybe that is why Wright really wants to derail Obama. |

No, the Chinese communists got to Wright. I am sure Putin is livid.
Lets face it, the Russians are down to 150 million people with a land mass twice the size of America and the average life expectancy for men is 55 and women 77.
70 percent of all pregnancies in Russia end in abortion.
I am sure Hillary and Bill's chinese handlers explained this and more to Wright and "convinced" him he was backing the wrong horse. _________________ "An activist is the person who cleans up the water, not the one claiming its dirty."

I think...........20 odd years ago, young Barry, fresh out of law school, and his eye on politics, arrived in Chicago, knowing no one and wanting to get in on a fast track to success.
He joined up with the Reverend because it was the largest black church in Chicago and the place to become known. Through the reverend he landed a job "helping" the pore folks, became known and (again) through the reverend met the folks who could further his political aspirations.
After taking this young fella under his wing, herding him through the Chicago political machine to the doorsteps of the ultimate political position in the world, he gets kicked off the bus and made an object of national disgust.
Of course, he is bitter, and now wants to "get back" at Obama for kicking him aside. _________________ "In a word, I want an American character, that the powers of Europe may be convinced we act for ourselves and not for others; this, in my judgment, is the only way to be respected abroad and happy at home." --George Washington |
