Ayers Comes Clean: "Barack and I are Family Friends"

William Ayers has written a new afterword to his old book, and reveals that he and Barack Hussein Obama were family friends.

Ayers also reveals his involvement in Obama's early political career.

In summary, Ayers proves what we already knew: Obama is a liar.

In a new afterword to his memoir, 1960s radical William Ayers writes that the campaign controversy over their relationship was an effort by Obama's political enemies to "deepen a dishonest narrative" about the candidate.
“We had served together on the board of a foundation, knew one another as neighbors and family friends, held an initial fund-raiser at my house, where I’d made a small donation to his earliest political campaign,” he writes.

You may remember how Obama described their relationship:

Obama said Ayers is "a guy who lives in my neighborhood" and not someone who has endorsed him or talked to him regularly.
"And the notion that somehow as a consequence of me knowing somebody who engaged in detestable acts 40 years ago when I was 8 years old, somehow reflects on me and my values, doesn't make much sense," Obama said.

Obama says he was just a guy in the neighborhood and did not endorse him. Ayers says they were friends and that he held fund-raisers in his house for Obama. One of them is lying. Who do you think the liar is?

Cartoon In 'Al-Sharq Al-Awsat': Obama Scrubs Uncle Sam's Image

More proof that the Islamists just love their brother, Barack Hussein Obama.

I weep for my country at the thought that the American Public was STUPID ENOUGH to vote for the very candidate America's enemies wanted in the White House.

Maybe this is more appropriate:

Hamas: We Met With Obama Advisors

As if his relationship with William Ayers and Tony Rezko wasn't bad enough, now comes word that Barack Hussein Obama authorized high-level meetings with Hamas Leadership several months ago before the election.  Hamas leadership says they were asked to keep the contacts secret until after last week's elections, according to a senior Hamas official.

Ahmed Yousef, Hamas' chief political adviser in Gaza, told the leading Al-Hayat Arabic-language newspaper Hamas has maintained regular communication with Obama aides that even continued during the past week.

"We were in contact with a number of Obama's aides through the Internet, and later met with some of them in Gaza, but they advised us not to come out with any statements, as they may have a negative effect on his election campaign and be used by Republican candidate John McCain (to attack Obama)," Yousuf told Al-Hayat.

Yousef seemed aware his comments may generate some negative publicity for Obama, but he said he feels it important to "reach out and to express our thoughts and engage."

"I praised him six months ago, some people tried to use that against him. But I knew he would win. Like everyone else, we expected this important victory," he said.

Sen. John McCain repeatedly used Yousef's remarks to criticize Obama's judgment foreign policy.

Obama Poised To Ban Guns Via Executive Order

On Obama's www.change.gov website recently the Messiah proclaimed that he would bring back the assault weapons ban, and close the "loophole" banning gun show sales.

Banning gun show sales in reality will ban all private party sales across the nation and turn what are now average, law abiding citizens into felons.  How does this work?  Let us explain.

First, gun shows are in effect, private sales.  Typically it is the sale of a firearm from one private owner to another.  Banning gun show sales in effect bans all private sales as a result.  A father for example, would no longer be able to purchase a gun as a gift for his son.  Areas in the Western United States for example where hunting is a family tradition which often leads to Dad purchasing his son's first hunting rifle, will become a felony.

As the internet is a wonderful thing, here is the ORIGINAL verbage from Obama's www.change.gov site.  This language has since been removed, but the internet cache is a wonderful thing.  This was listed under Obama's "Urban Policy":

“Address Gun Violence in Cities: As president, Barack Obama would repeal the Tiahrt Amendment, which restricts the ability of local law enforcement to access important gun trace information, and give police officers across the nation the tools they need to solve gun crimes and fight the illegal arms trade. Obama and Biden also favor commonsense measures that respect the Second Amendment rights of gun owners, while keeping guns away from children and from criminals who shouldn't have them. They support closing the gun show loophole and making guns in this country childproof. They also support making the expired federal Assault Weapons Ban permanent, as such weapons belong on foreign battlefields and not on our streets.”

So let's bring back gun locks, because it's "for the children."  How stupid is this thinking?

Let us explain yet again.  Obama is from Chicago.  Chicago has the highest murder rate in the country, while having the strictist gun laws in the nation.  In fact, a large percentage of the murders that happen in Chicago are in or around the very district Obama represented as a junior State Legislator in Illinois.  How much proof does this bozo Obama need to understand that when you ban guns, only the criminals have them?  The people of Chicago have been stripped defenseless thanks to Obama, Mayor Daley and a Democrat run state in Illinois, and now it's open season on the public.

I have to wonder why this was placed under "urban policy."  Is Obama suggesting that "Urban folks" (code word for: BLACK) can't be trusted with guns?

Jim Crow laws in the south didn't trust "Urban folks" with guns either.  I suspect Mr. Obama doesn't have a problem with guns, rather he has a problem with gun owners and them being able to defend themselves against not just criminals, but what is an ever increasingly socialist government that encroaches on our rights on a daily basis!  I'm willing to bet good money here that when Obama moves to ban guns via Executive Order, it won't just be for the "Urban folks" it'll be for all races.

No wonder there's been an explosion of gun sales nationwide.  We all know what's coming, and we will not go silently into the dark night.

Obama Sends Man Linked To Terror Groups And George Soros to Negotiate With Egypt & Syria

Talk about making a big mistake - and he's not even President yet, Obama sends one of his advisors, Robert Malley to Syria with a George Soros funded group. 

It has been clamed by the Egyptians that Malley was working as an advance man which angered American Ally, Israel because six months earlier Malley announced that he had held "regular meetings" with US identified terrorist group, Hamas. 

At that time Malley's comment caused the Obama campaign to distance themselves from any connection with Malley, but with the election over it now appears that Obama's claims that Malley didn't really work for him aren't true.  It also seems that we already have the very first example of Obama sticking his finger in the eye of our allies in Israel. Naturally, the U.S. press is not reporting this news as they're completely in the tank for Obama.

Obama Ready To "RULE"

With more than 200 Executive Orders ready to go on Day One, Obama spokesman says he's "ready to rule."

And here we thought we lived in a Representational Republic.

RULE?  That's for socialists.  Oops.  Obama's true colors come out.

REJECT OBAMUNISM

I'm coining the phrase right here, right now.  Nov. 6th, 2008 will mark the day REJECT OBAMUNISM comes to life as a viral campaign.

If the last two days of the stock market dropping a RECORD in terms of percentage and points doesn't convince the Obama-nuts, I'll spell it out for you:

The market is reacting to the election of the Socialist-Redistributionist-anti-Business President-Elect known as Barack Hussein Obama.

Never before in the history of the country has the market dropped 10% in the wake of a Presidential Election.  Most economists actually agree on this, that it's due to the election of Obama who is not deemed "Business Friendly." 

Hang onto your wallets, it's going to be a rough two years until the grown-ups re-take the Senate and House.

 

The Republic Is Dead.

So this is how Liberty dies - with thunderous applause.

When Shall We Know The Republic Is Lost?

A Lesson From Ben Franklin, One Of This Country's Founding Fathers

As Nov. 4th nears, this will likely be my last post on the blog - at least until after the murder and mayhem in Chicago is finished post the Election.  As I live in the Chicago Area, I'm 'hunkering down' for the riots that are sure to ensure - whether or not Obama wins or loses.

I have to say that I really do not understand the fascination with Barack Hussein Obama.  There are those who view him as their "messiah" and the cure for all their ills.  These are the people who I encounter almost daily now that think somehow Obama is going to keep them in the homes they bought but couldn't afford in the first place, or somehow magically fill their gas tanks and put food on their table.  "Obama is going to save me!" I heard someone say at work just the other day.

Wrong.  Obama isn't going to save anyone.  If anything, Obama's election will signal the end of this wonderful experiment we here in America like to call DEMOCRACY.

Ben Franklin had it exactly right when he said (and I quote) "When people find they can vote themselves money, that will herald the end of the Republic."

We stand at the precipice in this country of retaining or losing our most valued possession - our freedom.   The freedom to decide what is yours and what is not.  The freedom to decide what you will willingly share with others, and what will be mandated through governmental control of all monies via the redistribution of wealth to those who have simply voted your money out of your pocket into theirs.

This is what attracts so many to Obama as the 'messiah.'  With nothing more than their vote, Obama will save them from themselves.

How did Obama's supporters come to this conclusion?  Several ways. 

First, Obama as an empty suit has no record to stand on.  His supporters simply attach to him whatever they will.  They've heard nothing to counter what they believe in him so their feelings towards him are thus validated.

Second as a blank slate, Obama has no record to point to that says he won't do the very things his supporters say he will.  In fact, Obama's over-the-top lofty rhetoric directly implies he will do the things that they attach to him - even though he never specifically says that he will. Any sort of lack of positive or negative reinforcement from Obama simply isn't there - he allows his followers to believe what they will about him, all the while shutting down the opposition (See: Obama Truth Squads)

To be clear, in the first and second case these are the very same voters who throughout their lives have waited for the Government to improve their lives.  We've seen this time again in the Welfare state and most recently during Hurricane Katrina where those who refused to leave, then blamed the Government for their situations.

But this election is different and brings us to the third example: the Financial Markets Meltdown.  Those who've worked hard their entire lives and believed that hard work and perseverance would ultimately lead to their success have watched as the very system that rewarded their hard work was manipulated by Wall Street Bankers, Hedge Fund Operators, Oil Speculators, and unscrupulous Mortgage Bankers were rewarded for failure via multi-million dollar golden parachutes and Government Bailouts - at Taxpayers expense.

It is this group of people - the working middle class - that has worked hard and played by the rules that has been screwed by the Government that is supposed to represent them.  Instead, the Banking Industry and Wall Street Executives who have driven our economy into the ground are being rewarded for failure by the US Government using US Taxpayer dollars.  It is this very group - the working middle class that are increasingly beginning to believe that they too, need a "savior" like Obama.

This makes Barack Hussein Obama the worst type of politician - preying on people's fears, telling them that Government must help them because they can't do it on their own.  As a Capitalist, I believe there is nothing that kills the human soul faster than Socialism.  It rewards "bad behavior" and penalizes those who are successful.  With the financial meltdown, it seems everyone is looking for someone to blame and Obama plays this angle perfectly.  Anyone who doesn't want to pay higher taxes is somehow "un-patriotic" or "selfish."    The reality is, paying taxes to a corrupt, tyrannical government - which is what we now have - is un-patriotic!

In my opinion, this election is America's last chance to have a peaceful revolution via the ballot box.  Whatever our political affiliation, we are all American's.  Our Government is supposed to represent and work for US, not the other way around.  Our Government has failed us, both Republican's and Democrats.  It is Us against Them.  The Middle-Class vs. the Political Ruling Class & those they enable - the Welfare Class.

This election day, we as AMERICANS have a choice: to throw-out the current lot of corrupt politicians that infest Washington DC - and vote against all incumbents, or embrase socialism or "Obamaunism."

Obama's supporters are threatening if the 'messiah' doesn't win, there will be rioting in the streets.

I say, independent of who wins, there should be rioting in the streets - unless every single incumbent is thrown out.

This is our last chance to peacefully throw all the bums out, America.  The revolution either happens via the ballot box or its time to bring the tar, rope, and feathers to the steps of the Capital and hang all 537 of the treasonous bastards from the steps of the U.S. Capital. 

In short, it's time to take OUR Constitutional Government Back.

"When people find they can vote themselves money, that will herald the end of the Republic." - Ben Franklin

Obama's Auntie Zeituni Onyango In U.S. Illegally

Family Members Immigrated Here Illegally, Obama Knew!

Besides living in a slum, Democrat Presidential Candidate Barack Hussein Obama's Auntie Zeituni Onyango is living in the United States of America illegally! 

Auntie Zeituni is Obama's long-lost half-aunt from Kenya.  She was discovered this week living in a public housing ("SLUM") in Boston and is here in the United States illegally according to an A.P. Press Report yesterday.

Auntie Zeituni is living in a slum?  So much for spreading the wealth around, eh Senator Government?

In Obama's book Dreams of my Father he states his belief that family has an obligation to take care of each other.  Yet, here we find Auntie Zeituni living in a slum in Boston. 

While 2008 Democratic Presidential candidate Barack Obama has lived one version of the American dream that has taken him to the steps of the White House, his Kenyan aunt and uncle, immigrants who live living in modest circumstances in Boston a few miles from where he studied at Harvard, have quite the contrasting American story.

The Obama campaign confirmed late Friday Evening (Just in time to bury it in the news cycle) that the Times of London story this morning is in fact correct in linking Obama to Auntie Zeituni as a family member.

In what we could only describe as a shameful move on Obama's part, he took $260 in campaign contributions from Auntie Zeituni while she lives in squalor in a slum.  (A search of campaign contributions from the FEC shows Auntie Zeituni's donation.)  What does this say about Obama?   Plenty.  Leaving family members to live in slums while having more than $600,000,000 in campaign funds is simply shameful.  It's also hypocritical based on Obama's own words pertaining to family responsibility in his book Dreams of my Father.

Speaking outside her home in Flaherty Way, South Boston this week, Onyango, 56, confirmed she was the "Auntie Zeituni" in Obama's memoir. She declined to answer most other questions about her relationship with the presidential contender until after the November 4 election.

"I can't talk about it, I just pray for him, that's all," she said, adding: "After the 4th, I can talk to anyone."

Perhaps after November 4th Auntie Zeituni will be given a Presidential Pardon for breaking our country's Immigration Laws and be given citizenship after being here illegally for so many years just like many other millions of illegal immigrants.

In closing, I can't help but wonder if as an illegal alien if she's been registered to vote by ACORN.

Found in a rundown Boston estate: Barack Obama’s aunt Zeituni Onyango

So Much For "Spreading HIS Wealth Around

 

'Auntie Zeituni', who, with Uncle Omar, dropped out of sight after moving to the US, is backing the presidential candidate from her modest flat

Times Online

James Bone in Boston, Rob Crilly in Kogelo and Ben Macintyre

Barack Obama has lived one version of the American Dream that has taken him to the steps of the White House. But a few miles from where the Democratic presidential candidate studied at Harvard, his Kenyan aunt and uncle, immigrants living in modest circumstances in Boston, have a contrasting American story.

Zeituni Onyango, the aunt so affectionately described in Mr Obama’s best-selling memoir Dreams from My Father, lives in a disabled-access flat on a rundown public housing estate in South Boston.

A second relative believed to be the long-lost “Uncle Omar” described in the book was beaten by armed robbers with a “sawed-off rifle” while working in a corner shop in the Dorchester area of the city. He was later evicted from his one-bedroom flat for failing to pay $2,324.20 (£1,488) arrears, according to the Boston Housing Court.

The US press has repeatedly rehearsed Mr Obama’s extraordinary odyssey, but the other side of the family’s American experience has only been revealed in parts. Just across town from where Mr Obama made history as the first black president of the Harvard Law Review, some of his closest blood relatives have confronted the harshness of immigrant life in America.

In his book Mr Obama writes that “Uncle Omar” had gone missing after moving to Boston in the 1960s – a quarter-century before Mr Obama first visited his family in Kenya. Aunt Zeituni is now also living in Boston, and recently made a $260 campaign contribution to her nephew's presidential bid from a work address in the city.

Speaking outside her home in Flaherty Way, South Boston, on Tuesday, Ms Onyango, 56, confirmed she was the “Auntie Zeituni” in Mr Obama’s memoir. She declined to answer most other questions about her relationship with the presidential contender until after the November 4 election. “I can’t talk about it, I just pray for him, that’s all,” she said, adding: “After the 4th, I can talk to anyone.”

A photograph of Ms Onyango was later shown to George Hussein Onyango, Barack Obama’s half-brother in Nairobi, who confirmed that it was their aunt. George Onyango, 26, the youngest child of Barack Obama Sr, said that he had spent weekends with his Aunt Zeituni when he was growing up, and instantly recognised her.

George Onyango said that his aunt had left for the US about eight years ago but sent him e-mails. “She left to find work and I suppose she thought her life would be better there,” he said. “She was kind and caring.”

In his memoir Mr Obama describes the joy of meeting his father’s family during his first visit to Kenya in 1988. Aunt Zeituni, then a computer programmer at Kenya Breweries in Nairobi, is portrayed as a feisty woman who proclaims herself “the champion dancer”. Uncle Omar, by contrast, remains a mysterious figure who left for America and never came back. At one point in the book a half-sister tells Mr Obama that people “like our Uncle Omar, in Boston” move to the West.

“They promise to return after completing school. They say they’ll send for the family once they get settled. At first they write once a week. Then it’s just a month. Then they stop writing completely. No one sees them again.”

Aunt Zeituni and Uncle Omar are the children of Mr Obama’s grandfather Hussein Onyango Obama, by his third wife – the woman Mr Obama calls “Granny” because she raised his father. Mr Obama’s father, Barack Sr, was Onyango Obama’s son by his second wife, Akumu. That makes Zeituni and Omar a half-sister and half-brother of Mr Obama’s father, or Mr Obama’s half-aunt and half-uncle.

While Mr Obama was on his voyage of personal discovery in Africa, his aunt and uncle were engaged in their own journey in his homeland.

Obama: "Supreme Court Should Mandate Redistribution of Wealth"

Recently Uncovered Audio from 2001 Interview On Chicago Public Radio WBEZ Proves Obama's Socialist Intentions

Listen for yourselves as Barak Hussein Obama talks about how the US Supreme Court should mandate re-distribution of wealth and the "failure" of the Great Society.  In this clip, Obama argues not just for redistribution of wealth, he argues for REPARATIONS in the form of wealth redistribution.

Partial Transcript:

OBAMA: You know, if you look at the victories and failures of the civil rights movement and its litigation strategy in the courts, I think where it succeeded was to get formal rights in previously dispossessed peoples — so that I would now have the right to vote, I would now be able to sit at a lunch counter and order, and as long as I was able to pay for it I’d be OK. But the Supreme Court never ventured into the issues of redistribution of wealth, and more basic issues of political and economic justice in this society.

And to that extent, as radical as I think people try to characterize the Warren Court, it wasn’t that radical. It didn’t break free from the essential constraints that were placed by the Founding Fathers in the Constitution, at least as it’s been interpreted, and the Warren Court interpreted it in the same way that generally the Constitution is a charter of negative liberties. It says what the states can’t do to you, says what the federal government can’t do to you, but it doesn’t say what the federal government or the state government must do on your behalf. And that hasn’t shifted. And one of the, I think, tragedies of the civil rights movement was, because the civil rights movement became so court-focused, I think there was a tendency to lose track of the political and community organizing and activities on the ground that are able to put together the actual coalitions of power through which to bring about redistributive change. And in some ways we still suffer from that.

….. Karen (Caller): The gentleman made the point that the Warren Court wasn’t terribly radical with economic changes. My question is it too late for that kind of reparative work economically, and is that the appropriate place for reparative economic work to take place?

Host: You mean the courts?

Karen: The courts, or would it be legislation at this point?

Obama: Maybe I’m showing my bias here as a legislator as well as a law professor, but I’m not optimistic about bringing about major redistributive change through the courts. Y’know, the institution just isn’t structured that way.

You look at very rare examples where during the desegregation era where the court, for example, was willing to, for example, order changes that cost money to local school districts, and the court was very uncomfortable with it. It was hard to manage, it was hard to figure out. You start getting into all sorts of separation of powers issues, y’know, in terms of the court monitoring or engaging in a process that essentially is administrative and takes a lot of time.

The court’s just not very good at it, and politically it’s very hard to legitimize opinions from the court in that regard. So, I mean, I think that although you can craft theoretical justifications for it legally, y’know I think any three of us sitting here could come up with a rationale for bringing about economic change through the courts. …..

The Obama Position on Gun Control

Obama says that he'll protect American Citizen's rights to own firearms for the purposes of hunting and target practice.

But the Second Amendment isn't about shooting ducks or simple "target practice."

The Second Amendment is about the ability of American Citizens to protect themselves from a tyrannical government and self defense.

While serving as an Illinois Junior State Senator, Barack Obama voted against the right of Illinois Citizens to carry firearms to protect themselves.  Today, Chicago is the murder capital of the country.  Only the gang's have guns in Chicago.

Obama also voted to ban the sale of handguns across Illinois, voted to ban the sale of handguns within five miles of any school or public park in Illinois, and voted "present" on a law which would provide mandatory sentencing for any gang member who used a handgun while committing a crime.

Present?  Obama couldn't even vote to punish gang members who used guns?  Nothing racial about that at all now is there?

So what will happen to your right to use a gun to defend youself under an Obama Presidency?  Watch and learn.

 

Barak Obama "Subprime Loans Were A Good Idea"

 

After the Sub Prime Crisis already started, in Sept. 2007, Barak Obama gave a speech to NASDAQ saying sub prime mortgages, which literally gave homes to people who could not afford them was a GOOD IDEA.

Watch further as major Obama Campaign Contributor Franklin Raines (who destroyed Fannie Mae and received a multi-million dollar golden parachute afterwards) admit that subprime mortgages were "targeted to give minorities a home" that they could not otherwise afford.

Finally, someone admits what really got us into all this financial mess - GOVERNMENT RE-DISTRIBUTION OF WEALTH!

If you want more of the same, by all means, vote Barak Obama. 

If you want REAL CHANGE, vote for Senator John S. McCain.

Obama The "Wealth Redistributionist"

What does Barak Hussein Obama really think about wealth redistribution?  What about reparations?

Here's a 1995 interview of Obama promoting his book "Dreams of my Father" interlaced with some of his political positions today.

It doesn't take more than a cursory listen to understand his anti-Capitalism, pro-Socialism politics are dangerous for America.

Listen closely as he describes "white executives who live in the suburbs and don't want to pay taxes for inner city children to go to school."

John Murtagh, child victim of William Ayers speaks out

The Link of Obama-Ayers Exposed as a direct victim of Ayers terrorist acts speaks out

The question on the table is about Obama's Judgement.  Not as an 8 year old when Ayers committed his heinous, terrorist attacks against his fellow Americans, rather Obama's Judgement as a 30+ year old in associating with a known, unrepentant terrorist in William Ayers.

John Murtagh was nine (9) years old when Ayers and his Weather Underground terrorist buddies sent and detonated 4 bombs to the Murtagh home. 

Hear in his own words how Obama is a hypocrite for trying to distance himself from Ayers, and how Obama knew about Ayer's terrorist past.

While you're viewing, think about this question: How is it General Colin Powell, who fought against terrorists, could endorse a terrorist enabling Barack Obama for President.

But Powell says it's not about "race."

We Are All "Joe The Plumber" Today

Joe "The Plumber" Wurzelbacher in his own words, talking about why he won't vote for Barack Obama.

John McCain: I'm with Joe The Plumber!

And this morning, an entire cottage industry pops up around "Joe The Plumber."

Joe The Plumber starts a movement of ONE.  How many other Union Members feel the way Joe does?

McCain's Line of the Night:

And this is what happens if Obama and his corrupt ACORN manage to put him in the White House.

Who's Responsible For The Financial Meltdown?

While Democrats Shunned Responsibility, McCain Tried To Reform Fannie/Freddie

Barak Obama likes to say he "wrote a letter" to the Treasury Secretary to reign-in Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, but has NEVER been able to produce the letter he wrote.  Neither has Obama been able to convene one of the very Senate Banking Sub-Committee's, of which HE IS IN CHARGE, to investigate the fraud that Fannie & Freddie committed against the American Taxpayers.

Now, who did write a letter in an attempt to try and get Congress to investigate the fraud that was being perpetrated on the American Taxpayers?  John McCain, and here's the proof.  Note that NONE of the signatures on this letter are of Barak Obama, or ANY Democrat with authority in the last 2 years to investigate Fannie Mae/Freddie Mac:

 

 

So where exactly IS that letter that Barak Hussein Obama claims to have written?

Once again, the reality is there is only ONE Candidate for President that has truly fought for the American Taxpayer - and that's John S. McCain.

 

 

Obama Trying To Distance Himself From Corrupt ACORN

22 States Now Investigating ACORN Voter Registration Fraud

What amount of influence will a corrupt organization like ACORN have in an Obama Administration?  Look no further than Obama's address to ACORN in December, 2007 as the Primary Season was about to kick off.

Note, this is the SAME ACORN that Obama gave $800,000 to for "voter registration services" under the front organization "Voter Services, Inc."

Barak Obama - Change WE CAN NOT Believe In

Obama's "Tax Cuts for 95% Of American's" Illusion

It depends on what the meaning of 'tax cut' is.

Wall Street Journal, October 13th, 2008

One of Barack Obama's most potent campaign claims is that he'll cut taxes for no less than 95% of "working families." He's even promising to cut taxes enough that the government's tax share of GDP will be no more than 18.2% -- which is lower than it is today.

AP

It's a clever pitch, because it lets him pose as a middle-class tax cutter while disguising that he's also proposing one of the largest tax increases ever on the other 5%. But how does he conjure this miracle, especially since more than a third of all Americans already pay no income taxes at all? There are several sleights of hand, but the most creative is to redefine the meaning of "tax cut."

For the Obama Democrats, a tax cut is no longer letting you keep more of what you earn. In their lexicon, a tax cut includes tens of billions of dollars in government handouts that are disguised by the phrase "tax credit." Mr. Obama is proposing to create or expand no fewer than seven such credits for individuals:

- A $500 tax credit ($1,000 a couple) to "make work pay" that phases out at income of $75,000 for individuals and $150,000 per couple.

- A $4,000 tax credit for college tuition.

- A 10% mortgage interest tax credit (on top of the existing mortgage interest deduction and other housing subsidies).

- A "savings" tax credit of 50% up to $1,000.

- An expansion of the earned-income tax credit that would allow single workers to receive as much as $555 a year, up from $175 now, and give these workers up to $1,110 if they are paying child support.

- A child care credit of 50% up to $6,000 of expenses a year.

- A "clean car" tax credit of up to $7,000 on the purchase of certain vehicles.

Here's the political catch. All but the clean car credit would be "refundable," which is Washington-speak for the fact that you can receive these checks even if you have no income-tax liability. In other words, they are an income transfer -- a federal check -- from taxpayers to nontaxpayers. Once upon a time we called this "welfare," or in George McGovern's 1972 campaign a "Demogrant." Mr. Obama's genius is to call it a tax cut.

The Tax Foundation estimates that under the Obama plan 63 million Americans, or 44% of all tax filers, would have no income tax liability and most of those would get a check from the IRS each year. The Heritage Foundation's Center for Data Analysis estimates that by 2011, under the Obama plan, an additional 10 million filers would pay zero taxes while cashing checks from the IRS.

The total annual expenditures on refundable "tax credits" would rise over the next 10 years by $647 billion to $1.054 trillion, according to the Tax Policy Center. This means that the tax-credit welfare state would soon cost four times actual cash welfare. By redefining such income payments as "tax credits," the Obama campaign also redefines them away as a tax share of GDP. Presto, the federal tax burden looks much smaller than it really is.

The political left defends "refundability" on grounds that these payments help to offset the payroll tax. And that was at least plausible when the only major refundable credit was the earned-income tax credit. Taken together, however, these tax credit payments would exceed payroll levies for most low-income workers.

It is also true that John McCain proposes a refundable tax credit -- his $5,000 to help individuals buy health insurance. We've written before that we prefer a tax deduction for individual health care, rather than a credit. But the big difference with Mr. Obama is that Mr. McCain's proposal replaces the tax subsidy for employer-sponsored health insurance that individuals don't now receive if they buy on their own. It merely changes the nature of the tax subsidy; it doesn't create a new one.

There's another catch: Because Mr. Obama's tax credits are phased out as incomes rise, they impose a huge "marginal" tax rate increase on low-income workers. The marginal tax rate refers to the rate on the next dollar of income earned. As the nearby chart illustrates, the marginal rate for millions of low- and middle-income workers would spike as they earn more income.

Some families with an income of $40,000 could lose up to 40 cents in vanishing credits for every additional dollar earned from working overtime or taking a new job. As public policy, this is contradictory. The tax credits are sold in the name of "making work pay," but in practice they can be a disincentive to working harder, especially if you're a lower-income couple getting raises of $1,000 or $2,000 a year. One mystery -- among many -- of the McCain campaign is why it has allowed Mr. Obama's 95% illusion to go unanswered.

OBama Admits His Tax Plan Increases Taxes

Wants to "Spread the Wealth Around"

 

Is it any surprise that this finally comes out?  Obama admits it in this clip that he's going to increase taxes to "spread the wealth around." 

 

So how will this affect the small business owner in this clip?  Yep, his taxes will go up so "those behind him" will have a shot at some of his "wealth."

 

Make no mistake about it: when the Government says they're going to increase taxes on "the wealthy" they're doing two things.  First, they're playing class warfare.  Everyone seems to want to "sock it to the rich" as a way to blame their own status in life not on their own lack of effort, but on someone else.

 

Second, when the Government aims at the "big guy" they invariably hit the little guy. 

 

Simply put, wealth creates jobs.  The government doesn't create jobs only money can do that.  Consumption, starting up small businesses, hiring people - that all takes money.  If the government were to do it, they'd have to literally print money to make it happen - then you'd see super-inflation as the value of the dollar decreases.

 

So those making more than $250k/year are going to pay more.  What does that mean?  Well, first thing it means is that those small business owners - who comprise the true job engine of this country - won't have the money to pay for an extra worker or two because the confiscatory policies of a potential OBama administration would tax that money away.  Second, any "benefits" that employer may fund will likely be gone.  That means cuts in medical coverage for example, or not funding 401K's.  These are real, tangible benefits that in all likelihood would stop or be dramatically minimized under an Obama administration because Obama wants to "tax the rich."

 

I have but one word for Obama voters - suckers.  I hope you're the first ones to lose your jobs, benefits and medical coverage for being stupid enough for putting the most inexperienced candidate ever to run for office, into the most powerful office in the world.

Obama's Friend, Radical Terrorist William Ayers

Judging Obama By The Company He Keeps

 

Another example of the types of "Friends" Obama keeps.  As we now know, Weather Underground Terrorist William Ayers wasn't just some "guy from the 'hood" as Barack Hussein Obama claimed.  Rather, Ayers helped Obama launch his political career from Ayers own home. 

It was William Ayers that introduced Barack Obama to the liberal elites in Chicago's Hyde Park neighborhood.  It was William Ayers that opened his home up to Obama and invited him in.  It was William Ayers that helped Obama raise hundreds of thousands of dollars for his Illinois State Senate run, and eventually Obama's US Senate run. 

Obama accepted Ayers' help willingly - yet never stopped to learn "who is this Ayers guy anyway?"

Obama likes to say "it's about judgement" in important matters such as Iraq (where Obama refused to back the troops and demanded a timeline for withdrawl.)  Yet, in matters regarding personal friendships, who he  worked with directly to help raise money for his  candidacy, and who Obama served on several left-wing Progressive boards with, suddenly judgement doesn't matter?

Obama can't have it both ways. 

We've written extensively on Ayers and linked to other sites, today we simply make the case with the following quote.  This is the type of people that Barack Hussein Obama "hangs" with in his "hood."

 

"Kill all the rich people. Break up their cars and apartments. Bring the revolution home. Kill your parents, that's where it's really at."

--Bill Ayers, Weather Underground, 1970

 

 

 

 

Simply stated, there is no way on God's green earth that this liberal POS should EVER be allowed anywhere near the White House. 

To think that there are those in this country who ignorantly vote for Obama simply because he "speaks well" sends shivers down my spine.

CNN Finds Extensive Ties Between OBama, Domestic Terrorist Bill Ayers (Weather Underground)

Obama's Claim Ayers "Just Some Guy In The Neighborhood" Is A Lie

Finally, someone in the "mainstream media" goes off and does the homework that many of us in the Blogging community did some time ago.  CNN actually does the homework and uncovers the OBama/Ayers connection. 

Despite OBama saying William Ayers (the founding member of Weather Underground - a domestic Terrorist group that bombed the Pentagon and Capital) was "just a guy in the neighborhood" the fact is OBama's and Ayers relationship is much deeper than OBama has admitted.

As this blog reported, OBama's first political fundraiser for his US Senate Run was in William Ayers' home.  Ayers was responsible for helping raise more than $500,000 for Obama through Ayer's connections.  Ayers also helped Obama's "former" Pastor Jeremiah "God Damn' America!" Wright financially, and is linked with both Obama and Wright.

Obama has been far less than truthful in his statements pertaining to his relationship with a domestic terrorist who's responsible for countless injuries and deaths of innocent American's on our own soil.

It's a matter of judgement, and here we have another documented case of OBama lying about his relationships with some pretty shady characters.

This video runs about 4:30, and speaks for itself.

An Open Letter To The McCain Campaign

It's Time To Talk Directly To The American People: We Deserve To Know The Truth

As someone who worked hard for the "Republican Revolution" in 1994, I've become increasingly distressed as the Republican Party lost its way from the very message that put them in control of Congress for more than a decade - to losing their way, Congress and potentially now the White House at a time when America needs experienced, seasoned leadership - not the empty suit "hype" of the Obama campaign.

Today's entry serves as my "Straight Talk" to the McCain campaign on how to get back on track, back in the lead, and win the White House. 

From my perspective there can be no time more serious for this country than right now.  The decline we face not just for our economy but our stature in the world as the leader - a shining beacon on a hill - matters to those of us who have always loved our country.  What happens in this election will set the course for this country for a generation.

Chris Dodd, the senior Senator (D. CT) said it best two weeks ago when he said on television "The American people deserve to know the truth, and what got us to this point."  I couldn't agree more. I also believe that Dodd issued a challenge he believed the McCain campaign and the Republican Party wouldn't pick up.  After all, the "mainstream media" is clearly in the Democrats corner once again so how would a response to that challenge make it out to the American People?  Surely the "mainstream media" wouldn't dare let the truth really come out now would they?

They would if they didn't have a choice.  And I contend that they don't.

Governor Sarah Palin of Alaska, your VP running mate, proved during the VP debates that she knew how to work around the media and talk straight to the American people.  She followed Ronald Reagan's example.

In answering Gwen Ifill's opening question, Palin announced that she may or may not answer the questions posed to her that evening.  Instead, she was going to take her message directly to the American people.   And that's exactly what she did.

Now THAT's being a Maverick, and it is exactly why Sarah Palin electrifies the Conservatives in the Republican Party.  No doubt, it's also why she has the same effect on so-called "Independents" and "Moderate" Democrats much to the chagrin of the "mainstream" media.

Clearly, Governor Palin knows how to talk directly to the American People.  Senator McCain, it's time you took a valuable lesson from your VP candidate and follow her, and Ronald Reagan's lead.  Be the Maverick, Senator.

In taking the truth to the American people, here's what I believe you should do during the next debate.

First, stop pandering to the media.  They only liked you while you were opposing the Bush Administration and working with the Democrats.  Now that you're matched up against their boy, Obama they're going to do nothing but run interference for him and put obstacles up for you.  Stop playing by their rules.

Second, when the first question is directed your way, follow Palin's lead.  Look right into the camera and tell the American people that you're not going to play the media's game and that you're going to speak directly to them.  American's overwhelmingly have a distrust of the media which tries telling us how to think at every turn.  Be the Maverick.

Third, the American People deserve to know the truth about how we got into this mess and they're looking for you to tell it in plainspoken language.  If that means pointing the finger at the Democrats then they want you to do it.  American's want to know who's responsible for the policies that created this mess.  We have a right to know!

Here's the dirty little secret of this campaign season, Senator McCain: the average voter is looking for a reason to vote against  Obama.  Those of us who live in Illinois know exactly how inexperienced he is, we know about his bad judgement.  What the rest of the country wants to know is WHY they should vote AGAINST him.  If it's true that Obama represents "change" then we the American people deserve to know what "change" Obama will bring.

The fact is this.  As a "community organizer" Obama had a large hand in creating this mess along with the same entrenched liberal Democrats that control the House & Senate today.  The American People deserve - and need to know - how this situation came about.

 

Obama Says Subprime Mortgages Were Good Idea (Sept. 2007)

 

Here's the straight talk that you need to have with the American People during the debate, Senator:

- First, the Community Re-Investment Act of 1977 passed by a Democrat House & Senate, signed by then President Jimmy Carter laid the foundation for the current financial mess we're in.

 

History of Community Re-Investment Act

 

- Second, Obama as a "Community Organizer" in the 80's and 90's  helped to advance ACORN's agenda in suing Banks to give sub-prime mortgages to low and no income borrowers.  In short, people who couldn't repay the loans given to them.  ACORN in Chicago was funded by none other than Theresa Heinz Kerry, wife of liberal Senator John Kerry who lost the 2004 election.   The same Theresa and John Kerry helped to promote Obama in the Democrat Party ranks by obtaining a prime-time speaking slot for him during the Democrat Convention in 2004.

- Third, as a young lawyer and still "Community Organizer" for ACORN, Obama led the charge in suing small to medium sized banks in the mid 1990's through early 2002 to force them to provide loans to low-income/no income families in the Chicago area.  Obama also led the charge to "blackmail" Fannie Mae to back the loans. 

- Fourth, in 1995, the Community Reinvestment Act was re-written by the Clinton Administration and required banks to find ways to provide mortgages to their poorer communities. It also let community activists such as Barack Obama to intervene at yearly bank reviews, shaking the banks down for large pots of money. As a member of ACORN, Obama led the charge to do just this in the Chicago area.  It is this specific re-write of the Community Reinvestment Act that is responsible for today's crisis. Banks that did not comply with the new Clinton Administration mandates were sued for "non-compliance" and faced retribution by the Clinton led Treasury.  In short, Fannie Mae/Freddie Mac were bound by bad Government Regulation to throw their doors open to bad loans that were written by any bank or mortgage initiator.

Fifth, in 1997/1998 Barack Obama as an attorney for ACORN sued many banks in the Chicago area forcing them to lend money to borrowers with less than good credit.  Ultimately, this caused a spike in housing prices which priced those who the Community Reinvestment Act was supposed to help, right out of the housing market.  This also enabled predatory lending practices along with buyers purchasing homes that they - and the banks - knew they couldn't otherwise afford. 

As a lawyer, Barack Obama was all too happy to sue banks and other lending institutions to force them to loan money to those that could never pay it back to advance liberal housing policies, the 1995 re-write of the Community Re-Investment Act, and the goals of ACORN.

In short, Barack Obama was part of the problem.

Now for the solution.

- In 2003 and again 2004, President Bush saw the problem and proposed sweeping regulatory changes to Fannie/Freddie to avoid the collapse we're now seeing. 

- Democrats, led by Barney Frank opposed any regulation of Fannie Mae & Freddie Mac twelve (12) times because they knew that tightening regulations and lending practices would hurt their "constituency" and cost them votes.   Quote Barney Frank the so-called "architect" of the recent bailout directly when he said in 2003 "These two entities -- Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac -- are not facing any kind of financial crisis, the more people exaggerate these problems, the more pressure there is on these companies, the less we will see in terms of affordable housing.'

 

Video of Democrats Blocking Reform of Fannie/Freddie

 

- Again in 2005, just before the Democrats took over Congress in early 2006, you yourself Senator McCain, proposed sweeping changes to Fannie Mae & Freddie Mac as the housing bubble grew forcing an increasing burden on Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac to guarantee bad loans. Once again, Democrats opposed any changes and the number of sub-prime mortgages spiked to an all-time high without the financial assets required in Fannie & Freddie to back them up. 

- These loans did not have appropriate collateral to guarantee their value, so banks and financial institutions split them up and "packaged" them with good loans to sell to unwitting investors.

- The reason this is important is because it's an outcome of the Clinton Administration's 1995 re-write of the Community Investment Act which reduced the amount of data collection and record keeping required by Banks with more than $250 million in assets.  This is exactly why no one knows the amount of "damage" done to our economy or the true value of the "subprime loans" that are out there.  In short Senator, the $700 billion bailout likely isn't enough!

In speaking these simple truth's to the American people it would set the record straight on exactly who's responsible for our current economic problems and why they were not corrected ahead of time.  

At each step it is important to say that the liberal policies espoused by Democrats and Barack Obama are directly responsible for laying the foundation for our country's current economic mess, and also for preventing any regulatory oversight that would've stopped it from happening.

Democrats and Barack Obama are directly linked to this financial disaster.  The American People deserve to know this simple truth.  Many are looking for a reason NOT to vote for Obama, the most in-experienced candidate for President this country has ever seen.

Time in this campaign is running short, Senator McCain.  Are you going to pick up the gauntlet that Chris Dodd threw down and answer it with the facts, or are you going to continue pandering to the media hoping they'll "like" you once again?

The American People deserve an answer. 

That's my straight-talk to the McCain/Palin campaign.

Did Obama Really Write "Dreams of my Father?"

An analysis of Dreams of my Father and Weather Underground Terrorist William Ayers' Fugitive Days reveals Ayers as the Ghost Writer for Obama's Memoir

How is it a relatively unaccomplished writer with no history of publishing anything - despite being the editor of the Harvard Law review - was able to write what Time Magazine called the "best written memoir ever produced by an American Politician?" 

Simple, Obama didn't write it.  Despite Obama's claims that Weather Underground Terrorist William Ayers was just some "guy down the block" an analysis of Ayers book "Fugitive Days" and Obama's "Dreams of my Father" proves that Ayers wasn't just some "guy down the block" - Ayers wrote Obama's memoir.

Jack Cashill is an investigative author who's been writing extensively on this subject and just two days ago he wrote an article proving Obama couldn't possibly have authored his "memoirs."

Prior to 1990, when Barack Obama contracted to write Dreams From My Father, he had written very close to nothing.

As an undergraduate at Occidental College, Obama had composed what he calls some “very bad poetry,” and he does not sell himself short.

In 1981, Occidental’s literary magazine published two of Obama’s poems—“Pop” and “Underground.” These poems are only a little sillier than the average undergraduate’s, but they show not a glint of promise. From “Underground”:

Under water grottos, caverns

Filled with apes

That eat figs.

Stepping on the figs

That the apes

Eat, they crunch.

The apes howl, bare

Their fangs, dance . . .

Los Angeles media critic Kevin Roderick rightly described the exposure of Obama’s two published poems as a “semi-cruel exercise."

In a similar spirit, the Independent of London headlined its article on Obama’s early poetry, “Pop goes myth of Obama the young prodigy.”

It would be another decade before Obama had anything in print and this a heavily edited, unsigned student case comment in the Harvard Law Review unearthed by Politico.

Attorneys who reviewed the piece for Politico described it charitably as “a fairly standard example of the genre.”

Of note, Politico observes that “the temperate legal language doesn't display the rhetorical heights that run through his memoir, published a few years later.”

But then somehow, those few years later, this 33 year-old amateur with no paper trail beyond a hack legal note and a poem about fig-stomping apes produced what Time Magazine has called--with a straight face-- “the best-written memoir ever produced by an American politician.”

The public is asked to believe that Obama did this on his own, almost as though he were some sort of literary idiot savant. I don’t buy this canard for a minute.

Biden's List of Lies From The VP Debate

Assist from CNN helps cover up "Lies" and "Mis-statements"

Whatever happened to objective journalism in this country anyway?  Isn't it bad enough that Gwen Ifill hid the fact that she was releasing a pro-Obama book in January 2009 - on Inauguration day? Now we have CNN and other members of the "mainstream media" covering up his lies and deceptions.

This video from Breitbart.TV is a compilation of Biden's gaffe's, lies and mis-statements from the VP debate.  (Credit Breitbart)

 Most notable:

- Katies Restaurant hasn't been in business for 15 years.  That would make it hard to go with Biden to Katies to talk to his constituents.

- "Joey" Danko would do anything for Joe Biden, but wouldn't talk about his financial situation and why he couldn't state the cost of a gallon of gas.

- "Barak (Obama) never said he'd sit down with the President of Iran" (when in fact Obama did)

- "Go into Home Depot where I spend alot of time" - None of Home Depot's in or near Wilmington Delaware can verify Biden had ever been there.

There are of course more - but after this latest list of lies, gaffe's and mis-statements why should the American Public trust Joe Biden?

The fact is, Joe Biden isn't ready to be Vice President!

Burning Down The House!

Who Really Caused This Mess?  The Truth Democrats Dont' Want You To Know ...

 

Note: I am not the original author of the above video.  YouTube originally pulled this video due to a complaint from Warner Brothers for Copyright infringement.  Apparently, Warner Brothers doesn't understand the "Fair Use" clause, nor do they seemingly know that the Video's for the songs in this video are posted ALL OVER YouTube.

One last comment: Warner Brothers bundled almost $340,000 in donations to Barak Hussein Obama.  Think they have a "vested interest" in their music not being used to expose the sham that is the Obama Candidacy and the Democrat Party?

Just a thought ...

Why The Bailout Failed

Pelosi Tirade Before Crucial Vote Reason

Make no mistake about it, this is now the Democrat's Economy.

Having failed to produce enough votes to bailout Wall Street fat-cats and primary Democrat Donors from Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac and other big  Wall Street Banks that the Democrats have FAILED to regulate these past two years, we present to you the reason the bailout package failed today.

This was Nancy Pelosi, the Democrat House Speaker just minutes before the vote:

Is it any wonder the vote failed?  With rhetoric like this, why would any Republican vote for the abhorrent monstrosity that is the Bailout Package?  The Democrats have all the votes they need in the House to pass whatever legislation they want.  They didn't need a single Republican vote to pass the bill. They failed.  The fallout is squarely on their heads.

And here are the Democrats just last year, stating there's no problem with Fannie Mae & Freddie Mac.  (Notice all the Republican's in the video calling for regulating Fannie & Freddie, and notice the Congressional Black Caucus members in this video protecting "one of their own.")

Democrats need to face up to a few facts here.

First, it was the Jimmy Carter Administration along with a Democrat Controlled Congress that passed the "Community Reinvestment Act" of 1977 that outlawed "redlining" and prohibited banks from refusing to loan money to low-income 'urban' dwellers.

Second, it was the Clinton Administration in 1992 that put massive pressure on Banks to grant more mortgages and loans to the "poor" and "minotrities."  Banks were threatened with punitive action if they did not comply.  Clinton's Secretary of HUD Andrew Cuomo investigated Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac for racial discrimintation and proposed that 50% of Fannie Mae's and Freddie Mac's portfolio be made up of low to moderate income borrowers by the year 2001 (the end of the Clinton Administration.)

Instead of looking at "outdated criteria," such as the mortgage applicant's credit history and ability to make a down payment, banks were encouraged to consider nontraditional measures of credit-worthiness, such as having a good jump shot or having a missing child named "Caylee." Threatening lawsuits, Clinton's Federal Reserve demanded that banks treat welfare payments and unemployment benefits as valid income sources to qualify for a mortgage. That isn't a joke -- it's a fact.

When Democrats controlled both the executive and legislative branches, political correctness was given a veto over sound business practices. In 1999, liberals were bragging about extending affirmative action to the financial sector. Los Angeles Times reporter Ron Brownstein hailed the Clinton administration's affirmative action lending policies as one of the "hidden success stories" of the Clinton administration, saying that "black and Latino homeownership has surged to the highest level ever recorded."

Meanwhile, economists were screaming from the rooftops that the Democrats were forcing mortgage lenders to issue loans that would fail the moment the housing market slowed and deadbeat borrowers couldn't get out of their loans by selling their houses.

 A decade later, the housing bubble burst and, as predicted, food-stamp-backed mortgages collapsed. Democrats set an affirmative action time-bomb and now it's gone off. In Bush's first year in office, the White House chief economist, N. Gregory Mankiw, warned that the government's "implicit subsidy" of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, combined with loans to unqualified borrowers, was creating a huge risk for the entire financial system.

Rep. Barney Frank denounced White House Chief Economist Mankiw, saying he had no "concern about housing." How dare he oppose suicidal loans to people who can't repay them!

The New York Times reported that Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac were "under heavy assault by the Republicans," but these entities still had "important political allies" in the Democrats. And why wouldn't they?  Banking Committee Chariman Chris Dodd (D. CT) had received more than $500,000 in campaign contributions from Fannie Mae, and a rising star in the Democrat Party named Barak Obama received just over $400,000.  Democrats Barney Frank and Hillary Clinton also received massive campaign contributions from Fannie & Freddie Mac.  Surely Fannie Mae & Freddie Mac had allies in the Do Nothing Congress controlled by the Democrat Party!

Now, at a cost of hundreds of billions of dollars, middle-class taxpayers are going to be forced to bail out the Democrats' two most important constituent groups: rich Wall Street bankers and welfare recipients.

Political correctness had already ruined education, sports, science and entertainment. But it took a Democratic president with a Democratic congress for political correctness to wreck the financial industry.

Democrats have accomplished in a few short years what Bin Laden has been trying to do for more than a decade now: Wreck America's economic system.

Thank you, Democrats!

Obama Campaign Now Threatening Wisconsin Broadcasters

Threats of prison time, loss of license for broadcasting "lies" about Obama. 

This is clearly out of control Das Fuhrer, Obama Bin Nazi is now threatening Wisconsin broadcasters with fines, loss of license, and jail time if they broadcast political ads that "lie" about Obama's positions.  If it weren't so funny anymore, its getting scary as we're now getting a preview of just how Obama would seize control of the mainstream media should this country be stupid enough to elect him.

Obama campaign spokesman Damien Thorn warned broadcasters that they will be held accountable for any “lies” they air running up to the election and after, once the Obama Administration takes office on November 5.

The threat was sparked by a series of anti-Obama ads produced by the National Rifle Association. The ads warn voters that if Senator Obama’s past record is any guide, his election should be expected to lead to further abridgements of the Second Amendment’s right to bear arms.

While not challenging the historical accuracy of the ads, Thorn contended that “they misrepresent Senator Obama’s current positions on this issue.” “The Senator is saying that he supports an individual’s right to own a weapon, subject to commonsense regulations,” Thorn claimed. “An Obama Administration will extend the right to own a firearm to those individuals who can demonstrate suffici ent need for such a right.”

“We would never, for example, deny the right of someone like Senator Joe Biden to his Beretta,” Thorn continued. “Senators are important people with many enemies. They have a right to protect themselves. The NRA’s contention that we would interfere with such a right is a lie that will bring consequences down on all who perpetuate it.”

The consequences, according to Thorn, would include loss of broadcast licenses, substantial fines, and even imprisonment for “willful or repeated violations.”

 

"Demonstrate a need for such a right?"  What part of "RIGHT" does the Obama campaign not understand?  We would have to "demonstrate a need" for our right to own a firearm and protect ourselves?

This is flat out MARXISM if we've ever seen it!  This isn't "supporting the 2nd Amendment" Obama is advocating a MEANS TEST to obtain the "right" to own a gun!

Once again, Barak Hussein Obama is DANGEROUSLY INCOMPETENT to be President.

"I Have A Bracelet Too!"

Parents of Ryan Jopek tell Obama to stop wearing their son's bracelet

The parents of Sergeant Ryan David Jopek who was killed in action in Iraq earlier this year have asked Barack Hussein Obama to stop wearing their son's bracelet and using his death to further the Obama campaign.  

Obama is ignoring the family's request.  Newsbusters has the details including the information that Jopek's mother is an Obama supporter who now finds herself in a very uncomfortable position.  Ryan David Jopek's father was on Wisconsin Public Radio yesterday talking about the family's reaction to Obama's using their son's death to further his own political goals. 

Audio of the program can be found HERE.

Transcript:

Brian Jopek: Because of some of the negative feedback she's gotten on the Internet, you know Internet blogs, you know people accusing her of... or accusing Obama of trying to get votes doing it... and that sort of thing.

Radio Host Moberg: Yeah

Jopek: She has turned down any subsequent interviews with the media because she just didn't want it to get turned into something that it wasn't. She had told me in an email that she had asked, actually asked Mr. Obama to not wear the bracelet any more at any of his public appearances. Which I don't think he's...

Moberg: It has been a while since he's brought it up.

Jopek: Right. But, the other night I was watching the news and he was on, uh, speaking somewhere and he was still wearing it on his right wrist. I could see it on his right wrist. So, that's his own choice. I mean that's something Barack Obama, that's a choice that he continues to wear it despite Tracy asking him not to... Because she is a Barack Obama supporter and she didn't want to do anything to sabotage his campaign, so, if he's still wearing the bracelet then, uh, that of course is entirely up to him.

Moberg: Maybe there's a difference between wearing it and making a point to bring it up in your speeches?

I can't think of a more cruel thing to do, than to ignore the request of the family of a fallen soldier and continue to politicize the death of one of America's best.  In Obama's mind, politics must simply be more important than the wishes of a family of one of America's fallen soldiers.

Certainly OBama is banking on the fact that Jopek's mother is an OBama supporter and won't speak out against him.

But we will.

Shame on you Barack Hussein Obama.

Missouri Counters "Obama Truth Squads"

Governor declares it a "violation of Civil rights" to intimidate, threaten with arrest those who disagree with Obama

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Saturday, September 27, 2008 Contact: Jessica Robinson, 573-751-0290 Gov. Blunt Statement on Obama Campaign’s Abusive Use of Missouri Law Enforcement

Gov. Blunt Statement on Obama Campaign’s Abusive Use of Missouri Law Enforcement

JEFFERSON CITY - Gov. Matt Blunt today issued the following statement on news reports that have exposed plans by U.S. Senator Barack Obama to use Missouri law enforcement to threaten and intimidate his critics.

“St. Louis County Circuit Attorney Bob McCulloch, St. Louis City Circuit Attorney Jennifer Joyce, Jefferson County Sheriff Glenn Boyer, and Obama and the leader of his Missouri campaign Senator Claire McCaskill have attached the stench of police state tactics to the Obama-Biden campaign.

“What Senator Obama and his helpers are doing is scandalous beyond words, the party that claims to be the party of Thomas Jefferson is abusing the justice system and offices of public trust to silence political criticism with threats of prosecution and criminal punishment.

“This abuse of the law for intimidation insults the most sacred principles and ideals of Jefferson. I can think of nothing more offensive to Jefferson’s thinking than using the power of the state to deprive Americans of their civil rights. The only conceivable purpose of Messrs. McCulloch, Obama and the others is to frighten people away from expressing themselves, to chill free and open debate, to suppress support and donations to conservative organizations targeted by this anti-civil rights, to strangle criticism of Mr. Obama, to suppress ads about his support of higher taxes, and to choke out criticism on television, radio, the Internet, blogs, e-mail and daily conversation about the election.

*****************************************************************************

It's high time someone stepped up and stopped this Obama nonsense!  "Truth Squads" my ass.  More like propaganda control and intimidating those who don't agree with Herr Obama.  Let's see some of these "lawyers" who volunteered for the "Truth Squad" in Missouri brought up before the Missouri Bar Association and charged with abuse of their law licenses.

Start with St. Louis Circuit Attorney Jennifer Joyce, Jefferson County Sheriff Glenn Boyer and St. Louis County Prosecuting Attorney Bob McCulloch.

Disbar them all, that would be justice.

OBama "Truth Squad"

KMOV-TV in St. Louis reports that the OBama campaign is forming "Truth Squads"  in Missouri and presumably across the country.

Here's the deal.  If the OBama campaign thinks someone not telling the truth about OBama, they're going to sue that someone in a court of law, and demand that person's arrest!

Where have we seen these tactics used before?  How about Hugo Chavez in Venezuela, Russia during the Cold War, and World War II when Joseph Goebbels had those in the media who wouldn't cooperate in spreading Nazi propaganda arrested and often shot to death.

Luckily for us, everything we post here is sourced often in Obama's own words showing his flip-flops and lies.  Gee, I sure hope I don't get sued by the Obama "Truth Squad."

**********************************************************************************

Here's the news report from KMOV in St. Louis linking the Obama campaign with the "truth squads"
