It's amazing, but true.

Yes, what's believed is amazing, especially when coupled with the Obama campaign. "I won't have to worry about putting gas in my car and I won't have to worry about paying my mortgage" is what she says makes her so enthralled with Obama. I wonder who is going to pay for those things?

Redistribution of the wealth, Obama 2001

It isn't a new thing with Obama to want to take from them that have and give it to them that don't have.  Classic Marxism at work.

Barbara West interview with Joe Biden

Well, someone finally has started asking some tougher questions of the Democrats.  Here's Barbara West of channel 9 in Orlando interviewing Joe Biden and asking about the "Marxist" connection to "spreading the wealth".  There's also a question about the Obama connection to ACORN, which we know exists, even though they deny it.  There may not be a direct connection to ACORN, but their subsidiary is certainly in play.

William Ayers and a state senator, Barack Obama

A searing and timely account ... of a state senator who glorified a domestic terrorist turned radical "educator"

[H]ere is a photograph of the short book review written by then Illinois state senator Barack Obama for Bill Ayers' then-new book, 

A Kind and Just Parent: The Children of Juvenile Court, as published on page 5 of section 14 of the Chicago Tribune on Sunday, December 21, 1997:

Pages 81-82 of the book:

Just guys in the neighborhood.

"economic policy" = Capitalism

Here's a video from Japan, of all places. However, they seem to have it pegged pretty well, especially Obama's use of a surrogate phrase, "economic policy", when he's actually talking about "capitalism".

Here we go again.

I keep wondering why there is such a problem with Obama and the Pledge of Allegiance and the National Anthem?  Surely he knows better than pulling this type of bonehead stunt.  But then again, maybe he's so confident in victory he doesn't have to try to conceal his real feelings of contempt. 

Bencal, who sings the anthem for a number of school events and is actively involved in local community theatre, had been contacted by the Obama campaign to sing the anthem. He agreed to do so, then was told later in the evening the anthem had been scratched from the program. Bencal said he was told by the campaign the decision was a simple programming change to make room for another speaker.

"I guess it just wasn't meant to be," Bencal said.

Sandra Abrevaya, communications director for the Obama campaign's Manchester office, confirmed the choice had simply been a last-minute scratch from the rally's program, which included the Pledge of Allegiance.

"Failed economic policy"

One of the mantras I heard several times last night, I didn't stop to count them, was Obama's repetition of "failed economic policies of the last 8 years." I have to wonder how failed those policies actually were and what can truthfully be attributed to the Bush administration.

In my memory, I don't remember the economy being an issue, until the last couple of years. Prior to that, we enjoyed a robust stock market and it even reached 14,000 last year. It has only been in the last year that some problems have become evident and they can be mainly attributed to Barney Frank, Chris Dodd and others of the same ilk. It has been the Democrat Congress that seems to have been the primary instigator of economic woes and credit problems. Problems stemming from their insistence on extremely risky loans, when they knew those people didn't have the means to repay what they borrowed.

In my opinion, this has not only been the height of stupidity, but it is an example of a "failed economic policy". So, let's put the shoe on the proper Democrat feet and see how they like wearing what they created!

Final debate

I listened to the majority of the debate tonight on C-Span. My satellite connection doesn't always run smoothly, so I missed a few things, but not many.

One thing I was amazed by was the claim so many make about Obama's "eloquence". I find his stammering and making noises, while he's fishing for a reply, to be less than eloquent.

I also find his basic dishonesty to be appalling. Obama said something like, Ayers and he had served on a committee together and that was about the extent of their contact. John McCain responded by reminding him of The Woods Fund that Obama and Ayers serve on together, which isn't the Chicago Annenberg Challenge committee Obama had admitted to.

Then there was Obama advoiding any continuing association with ACORN, the group that registered the same man 72 times, even though the Annenberg Commission, which Obama was chairman of, granted the Grassroots School Improvement, a group operated by the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now (ACORN), $350,000 from 1998-2002. The Chicago ACORN Received Grants Of $45,000 (2000), $30,000 (2001), $45,000 (2001), $30,000 (2002), And $40,000 (2002) from The Woods Fund. In 2008, the Obama Presidential Campaign paid $800,000 to an ACORN subsidiary, Citizen Service, Inc., to operate “get out the vote” efforts, according to the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review. That sounds like a whole lot more involvement than what Obama admitted to.

Is there something about Democrats that attract this type of devious individual? I'm reminded of the Bill Clinton years and that isn't a good memory.

Redistribution of wealth?

Here's the plumber that confronted Obama about the tax hike Obama is proposing.



I like the observation of the Marxist/socialist ties to this approach.

Obama's wrong values

Our Country Deserves Better is now running an ad that is essentially a compilation of most of the character and association attacks made against Barack Obama throughout the year. Here's what it looks like, as being run in Nevada right now.



Then there's this Howard Stern piece from January of this year, but maybe we should say something more like wrong values attributed to Obama?

Obama, the companion of terrorists? Continued

Well, it seems like Hannity isn't the only one who has covered the connection. Here's what CNN, yes CNN, has to report to the consternation of Anderson Cooper.



It seems there is a much deeper relationship than what the Obama campaign is willing to admit. As the chairman, Obama has demonstrated some of his "executive" experience by doling out large sums of money to Jeremiah Wright's church and a project where Ayers' wife's worked. In my part of the world, we call that nepotism, "Favoritism granted to relatives or close friends, without regard to their merit."

Obama, the companion of terrorist?

Hannity had this report on Fox News, but I don't see a lot of other sources taking any interest in Obama's continuing connection to terrorist. It's hard to fathom the degree of bias the media is exhibiting, trying to hide the facts surrounding his choice of people to associate with.

Ayers, who is that?

We're beginning to see Obama backing down from having anything to do with William Ayers, but is that really the case?

From Nov. 6, 1997 in the University of Chicago Chronicle,

"Ayers will be joined by Sen. Barack Obama, Senior Lecturer in the Law School, who is working to combat legislation that would put more juvenile offenders into the adult system;"

But that's not all,

"Michelle Obama, Associate Dean of Student Services and Director of the University Community Service Center, hopes bringing issues like this to campus will open a dialogue between members of the University community and the broader community.

"Students and faculty explore these issues in the classroom, but it is an internal conversation," Obama said. "We know that issues like juvenile justice impact the city of Chicago, this nation and -- directly or indirectly -- this campus. This panel gives students a chance to hear about the juvenile justice system not only on a theoretical level, but from the people who have experienced it."

To use a couple of cliches, I can't figure out if it's "guilt by association" or "birds of a feather flock together." Either way, it seems like Barack Obama has a real problem in chosing associates that exhibit any sort of normal rationality.

Vets for Freedom ad "Skipped"

I saw this on http://mudvillegazette.com/ and thought you might like to see it too. I need to figure out this "trackback" stuff, because I just parrot a lot of what I read from other sites.

Economic Crisis and the friends of Barack Obama

Contrary to what Barack Obama, Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid, Barney Frank and the rest of liberal Washington wants you to believe, they are the cause of the current economic problems.
