"CHICAGO (CBS) ― President-elect Barack Obama and his inner circle fear that some voters expect him to turn around the economy, wind down the war in Iraq and, perhaps, cure cancer -- all by the Fourth of July.
They know they must manage and lower those expectations, CBS 2 Political Editor Mike Flannery reports. "

Bill Ayers: Barack Obama a 'family friend'
But according to Obama, Ayers was "just a guy who lives in my neighbourhood.
Remember, Ayers is a home grown terrorist who said on 9/11 he wished he had bombed more.
"In a new afterword to his memoir, 1960s radical William Ayers describes himself as a "family friend" of President-elect Barack Obama and writes that the campaign controversy over their relationship was an effort by Obama's political enemies to "deepen a dishonest narrative" about the candidate.
Ayers describes phone threats and hate e-mail he received during the campaign, and he bemoans Obama's guilt by association.
During the campaign, Ayers' friendship with Obama was a favorite subject of conservative bloggers and talk show hosts who insisted the two were closer than the candidate was admitting. Ayers' new description of the relationship seems to contradict Obama's statements."
Remember, Ayers is a home grown terrorist who said on 9/11 he wished he had bombed more.

Barack Obama is looking more like a realist
Aw, you mean "The One" can't live up to the left wing media's expectations?
Don't be so modest LA Times, you and the rest of the media were the cheerleaders for Obama and as such are just as responsible for the false expectations generated.
"Reporting from Washington -- Now that the confetti has fallen, the nascent administration of Barack Obama has come face to face with one of its biggest challenges: living up to the exceptionally high expectations his thrilling campaign produced among supporters and long-suffering Democrats."
Don't be so modest LA Times, you and the rest of the media were the cheerleaders for Obama and as such are just as responsible for the false expectations generated.
Saudi Arabia to Lead U.N. Faith Forum
Notice it says "LEAD".
Notice too that these forums are never held in Saudi Arabia.
"UNITED NATIONS, Nov. 11 -- Saudi Arabia, the oil-rich Islamic kingdom that forbids the public practice of other religious faiths, will preside Wednesday over a two-day U.N. conference on religious tolerance that will draw more than a dozen world leaders, including President Bush, Israeli President Shimon Peres and British Prime Minister Gordon Brown.
The event is part of a personal initiative by Saudi King Abdullah to promote an interfaith dialogue among the world's major religions. The Saudi leader agreed for the first time to dine in the same room with the Israeli president at a private, pre-conference banquet Tuesday hosted by U.N. Secretary General Ban Ki-moon. But Ban hinted that the two leaders -- whose governments do not have diplomatic relations -- were not seated at the same table. "
Notice too that these forums are never held in Saudi Arabia.

Obama to ban drilling
So much for independence from Saudi oil, eh?
""They want to have oil and gas drilling in some of the most sensitive, fragile lands in Utah," Podesta said. Expect Obama to rescind that action and reissue the executive order banning offshore drilling in protected waters."
world has to rethink its image of a racist US
Don't hold your breath.
Don't worry they still have globalization and global warming to fall back on.
"Or, in the words of Ugandan journalist and commentator Charles Onyango-Obbo, in a column written before the election: 'If Obama is elected President, thousands of public intellectuals, radical professors and social activists and nationalist politicians and journalists will be plunged into crisis. Now they will have to explain how it is possible that a black person could be elected in this profoundly racist country.'"
Don't worry they still have globalization and global warming to fall back on.
Obama supporters regretting mistake already
Hey, we told you so.
Ann Althouse is having regrets.
That's what you voted on? Hope? That's it? Didn't Obama's continual flip flops give you just a hint that he would say anything to get elected? Didn't the fact that Obama did not have one major accomplishment in his life give you a clue? He told you he was a socialitst and would raise taxes. Obama has a history of far left friends who hate America. And you went with hope. How stupid can you get?
You people who voted for Obama are going to get burned and burned bad. You were warned.
"But the prospect of Jamie Gorelick heading up the Department of Justice is worth filibustering, if anything or anyone is. She's not "change you can believe in," she's "change guaranteed to cause even more cosmic calamities" because she's done that consistently in the past."
Ann Althouse is having regrets.
"I voted for Obama, as I'm sure my commenters are about to remind me, and I'm hoping for the best. He told me to hope! Please don't crush my hope so early, Mr. Obama."
That's what you voted on? Hope? That's it? Didn't Obama's continual flip flops give you just a hint that he would say anything to get elected?

Hey world, show us the money
The world wanted a far leftist as US president and they backed Obama to the hilt. Now it's time to pay up.
Good luck with that.
"So to everyone overseas I say: thanks for your applause for our new president. I’m glad you all feel that America “is back.” If you want Obama to succeed, though, don’t just show us the love, show us the money. Show us the troops. Show us the diplomatic effort. Show us the economic partnership. Show us something more than a fresh smile. Because freedom is not free and your excuse for doing less than you could is leaving town in January. "
Good luck with that.
Jamie Gorelick - Obama's pick for AG?
Bring in more failed Democrats. Now that's change.
Well somebody has to and it certainly won't be left wing rags like the NYT.
"Carries as baggage: Her work at Fannie Mae, which had to be bailed out by the government in September as part of a $200 billion deal. Ms. Gorelick left the company just as it was coming under attack for huge accounting failures. She has also drawn criticism for her role at the Justice Department, in which she allegedly created an intelligence “wall” that hindered counterterrorism agents in the years before the Sept. 11 attacks. Conservatives called for her removal from the Sept. 11 commission, but her fellow members rallied around her and said critics were distorting her record. The criticism grew so heated that the F.B.I. investigated a death threat against her family, and President Bush had to intervene personally to stop the Justice Department from releasing sealed reports involving her. Some conservative bloggers have already begun trying to derail Ms. Gorelick’s possible nomination as attorney general, pointing to her experiences at both Fannie Mae and the Sept. 11 commission."
Well somebody has to and it certainly won't be left wing rags like the NYT.
The return to reality
Sadly, it will take a long time for that to happen.
I was around a friends house last night for a few drinks and the election came up. One in the group had made a bet with a friend that Obama's middle name was Hussein and they turned to me for confirmation. Raise your hand if you think it is, I said. Only one raised their hand. I then asked them if anyone of them could name any accomplishment by Obama before his election. No one could. I asked them if they knew Obama lived in Indonesia as a child and attended a Madras. Howls of laughter and disbelief ensued - until they looked it up on the internet. I asked if they knew Obama smoked pot and took cocaine. You'll believe anything you read they snorted. Until I showed them passages from Obama's memoirs. These were Obama supporters mind you.
And so the night went. Finally, one in the group turned to me, exasperated that I had exposed their total ignorance of their beloved Obama, and said to me, "well, at least he isn't Bush". And there it was, the real reason they liked Obama.
Ignorance is bliss they say. These people must be real happy.

Stunned Icelanders Struggle
Just in case you think you've got it bad.
The NYT tries to be optimistic.
And just what are those exports? The "fickle fishing industry".
Not a good time to be an Icelander.
The NYT tries to be optimistic.
"Despite all this, Icelanders are naturally optimistic, a trait born, perhaps, of living in one of the world’s most punishing landscapes and depending for so much of their history on the fickle fishing industry. The weak krona will make exports more attractive, they point out. Also, Iceland has a highly educated, young and flexible population, and has triumphed after hardship before. "
And just what are those exports? The "fickle fishing industry".
"Fishing industry is one important industry, which provides 70% of export income and employs 6.0% of the workforce; therefore, the state of the economy remains sensitive to world prices for fish products."
Not a good time to be an Icelander.
Democrat Rangel and his tax scandal
continue.
What say you Obama?
"Rangel in September said he would hire a "forensic accountant" (think: "CSI: Charlie") to untangle a 20-year morass of tax returns and to determine just how much money he's made and how much in unpaid taxes he may still owe.
(Reminder: Rangel's committee writes the nation's tax laws.)
But as The Post's Isabel Vincent reported, two months later Rangel's lawyers claim they can't locate a single qualified firm that hasn't contributed to Rangel's campaigns or has no pending business before Ways & Means.
The same lawyers, incidentally, have already been paid more than $121,000 from Rangel's campaign committee.
Generally, that's a no-no. And though Rangel's staff insists he got a required advance OK from the Federal Elections Commission, the FEC says otherwise: An agency spokeswoman insists that neither Rangel nor anyone representing him even asked for a determination. "
What say you Obama?

How Obama Can Win Over The Media
Obviously CBS doesn't care about its credibility. But after Rathergate we already knew that.
The Washington Post tries meekly to regain some of its credibility.
The Washington Post tries meekly to regain some of its credibility.
Barack Obama is only human, you know
But, but before the election the media promised us Obama was a God - "The One". More lowering of expectations. Now that they helped elect him, know he can't deliver, the media have to lower expectations in order to try and preserve any credibility they have left.
Labour ‘racism’ would block British Obama
Interesting times, eh?
So now Britain is the racist country while America is no longer. Evidently, like America, Britain will remain a racist country until an Obama is elected. How does that feel now the shoe is on the other foot?
Well, Obama did promise to part the seas but I bet no one saw this coming.
"Barack Obama would never have been elected prime minister in this country because of “institutional racism” in the Labour Party, the head of Britain’s equality watchdog has told The Times. "
So now Britain is the racist country while America is no longer. Evidently, like America, Britain will remain a racist country until an Obama is elected. How does that feel now the shoe is on the other foot?
Well, Obama did promise to part the seas but I bet no one saw this coming.
Obama is not President of the World
The lowering of expectations is going global.
Oh, don't worry, it will, it will.
And as a result of the failed gay initiatives, gays are now openly using the N word against blacks who voted overwhelmingly against them.
He fails to mention that 3 out of 4 green initiatives failed as well.
And what does "The One" do at his very first press event since being elected? Insults Nancy Reagan, beloved by most Americans, and has to apologize.
"But answering them is quite another thing. So let's get this straight. Barack Obama has not been elected President of the World; the world is not his constituency; and his responsibilities to the world are secondary. He is President-elect of an important but declining power, and his responsibilities, especially in hard times, are to its citizens. He will anyway be immensely constrained through the mechanisms of the American Constitution, by domestic opinion; his popularity may be at the mercy of the economy; and the American people, though plainly beguiled by his freshness and charm and their own despair at the alternative, have not this week been transfigured into liberal internationalists. In the day they were electing Mr Obama, many states were rejecting gay marriage by clear margins.
And this whole thing could go very sour."
Oh, don't worry, it will, it will.

Obama apologizes to Nancy Reagan
The guys not even in office yet and he's already screwing up. This is why he and Biden stayed clear of the media in the last few months of the campaign. Now that they're elected, they will have to face the press from time to time. Watch, this will only get worse.

Obama Announces Creation Of His Marxist Youth Corps
Is the "change" Obamabots had in mind?
Note the "require".
"Obama will call on citizens of all ages to serve America, by developing a plan to require 50 hours of community service in middle school and high school and 100 hours of community service in college every year. "
Note the "require".
Obama's plan can't help economy
And that's from MSNBC, Obama's most rabid supporter! The lowering of expectations sure is growing large and fast.

Democratic leaders in the U.S. House discuss confiscating 401(k)s, IRAs
Those that voted for Obama are going to get their wish.
"RALEIGH — Democrats in the U.S. House have been conducting hearings on proposals to confiscate workers’ personal retirement accounts — including 401(k)s and IRAs — and convert them to accounts managed by the Social Security Administration."
Russia Warns of Missile Deployment
That didn't take long now did it?
Ah, don't sweat it Ruskies. With Obama in now you can forget about that missile defense system. By the way, while you're at it, go ahead and take Georgia. May as well take the Ukraine while you're at it.
"MOSCOW — President Dmitri A. Medvedev of Russia greeted his future American counterpart, Senator Barack Obama, with bristling language on Wednesday, promising to place short-range missiles on Russia’s western border if Washington proceeded with its planned missile defense system in Eastern Europe."
Ah, don't sweat it Ruskies. With Obama in now you can forget about that missile defense system. By the way, while you're at it, go ahead and take Georgia. May as well take the Ukraine while you're at it.
Asians uneasy over Obama trade stance
But, but, the left wing media told us the world loved Obama.
Too late now suckers.
"He appears to be a protectionist," said Chea Mony, president of the Free Trade Union of Workers in Cambodia, which has an export-driven textile industry. "I am quite concerned about that because most of our clothing products are exported to America."
Too late now suckers.

Obama’s Real Agenda On Coal Now Clear
West Virgina wakes up to the real Obama. Welcome back to reality folks.
Dead voters cast votes in Ohio
More election stealing by Democrats.
"But this isn't the first time we've uncovered dead voters. Two years ago, another 5 On Your Side investigation exposed 13,000 dead voters registered in Cuyahoga County. More than two dozen of them cast ballots.
Back then, NewsChannel5 was told dead voters would be removed from the rolls.
Now, on the eve of an historic election -- when every vote in Cuyahoga County is considered crucial -- our NewsChannel5 investigation has once again uncovered thousands of dead voters still on the rolls, and ballots still being cast from beyond. "
Ohio reacts to Obama "bankrupt" coal industry
People are just now waking up to the real Obama. Let's hope it's not too late, but, we told you so.
Well gee, Biden is on tape saying no to coal.
People better wake up to Obama before its too late.
""Regardless of the timing or method of the release of these remarks, the message from the Democratic candidate for President could not be clearer: the Obama-Biden ticket spells disaster for America's coal industry and the tens of thousands of Americans who work in it.
"These undisputed, audio-taped remarks, which include comments from Senator Obama like 'I haven't been some coal booster' and 'if they want to build [coal plants], they can, but it will bankrupt them' are extraordinarily misguided.
"It's evident that this campaign has been pandering in states like Ohio, Virginia, West Virginia, Indiana and Pennsylvania to attempt to generate votes from coal supporters, while keeping his true agenda hidden from the state's voters.
"Senator Obama has revealed himself to be nothing more than a short- sighted, inexperienced politician willing to say anything to get a vote. But today, the nation's coal industry and those who support it have a better understanding of his true mission, to 'bankrupt' our industry, put tens of thousands out of work and cause unprecedented increases in electricity prices. "
Well gee, Biden is on tape saying no to coal.
People better wake up to Obama before its too late.
Democrat says Obama lacks "political courage"
Watch the video.
"And then, the line that may haunt Nadler for four years or longer: “He didn't have the political courage to make the statement of walking out.
“Now, what does it tell me?” Nadler asked. “It tells me that he wasn't terribly political courageous. Does it tell me that he agreed with the reverend in any way? No. It tells me he didn't want to walk out of a church in his district.”
Who really found Obama's aunt?
The UK media. The left wing media in the US would not dare research anything on "The One".
Obama - "Under my plan .. electricity rates would .. skyrocket"
Listen to Obama admitting it.
That's if you have any left after Obama has spread your income around.
But you don't have to worry about coal because "Barack Obama promised to bankrupt anyone foolish enough to build coal-burning power plants..."
"You know, when I was asked earlier about the issue of coal, uh, you know — Under my plan of a cap and trade system, electricity rates would necessarily skyrocket. Even regardless of what I say about whether coal is good or bad. Because I’m capping greenhouse gases, coal power plants, you know, natural gas, you name it — whatever the plants were, whatever the industry was, uh, they would have to retrofit their operations. That will cost money. They will pass that money on to consumers."
That's if you have any left after Obama has spread your income around.
But you don't have to worry about coal because "Barack Obama promised to bankrupt anyone foolish enough to build coal-burning power plants..."
Obama says he will bankrupt coal industry
Now you know why Biden said there would be no more coal plants in America.
An audio excerpt from the interview can be found at YouTube.
An audio excerpt from the interview can be found at YouTube.
Obama: "So if somebody wants to build a coal-powered plant, they can; it's just that it will bankrupt them because they're going to be charged a huge sum for all that greenhouse gas that's being emitted."

Obama's Watergate Plumbers
Just think what he could to you if elected.
"Democrats refused to act on ACORN's massive vote fraud. Yet they have time to scour the private records of Joe the Plumber. No wonder Barack Obama finds the Constitution an inconvenience."
Obama targeting Alheimer's patients
There is no low that the scum Democrats won't g to.
"In Highland County, 95-year-old Mildred Meddock registered and voted for the first time in her life despite her advanced Alzheimer's disease.
Her granddaughters learned of her newfound patriotism when they visited the nursing home where Meddock lives and saw an "I voted today" sticker on her clothing. "
Obama’s aunt lives in a rundown public housing estate
in Boston.
Obama is all for spreading your income around but not his.
"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. "
Obama is all for spreading your income around but not his.
Democrat caught committing voter fraud
That's the Democrats big plan, steal the election.
Democrats are committing voter fraud on a massive scale.
"NEW PALTZ — Congressman John Hall (D-Dover Plains) fired one of his long-time campaign advisers Tuesday, after learning that she’s embroiled in voter fraud investigations in Ohio.
Amy Little, 49, has been a registered Democrat in New York since 1991, and Ulster County election officials said she voted in the party primary here in February.
But in October, Little registered to vote in Ohio. On her registration paperwork, she indicated she moved from her home at 142 Guilford Schoolhouse Road in New Paltz to a place at 1979 N. 4th St. in Columbus, near Ohio State University.
That Ohio address also doubles as headquarters for a grassroots get-out-the-vote group called Vote Today Ohio."

OBAMA: "WHITE FOLK'S GREED RUNS A WORLD IN NEED" audio
This is why Obama thinks Joe the Plumber is greedy.
Obama - "...bring about redistributive change"
At least the UK media are reporting on Obama's scandals.
That's your income Obama's talking about redistributing.
"Mr Obama said: "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 organising and activities on the ground that are able to put together the actual coalition of powers through which you bring about redistributive change. In some ways we still suffer from that."
That's your income Obama's talking about redistributing.
Obama - "Just tax the heck out of people"
That's the Democrats for you.
"“If you talk to Warren [Buffet], he’ll tell you his preference is not to meddle in the economy at all — let the market work, however way it’s going to work, and then just tax the heck out of people at the end and just redistribute it,” Obama said. “That way you’re not impeding efficiency, and you’re achieving equity on the back end.” He continued by saying that he thought there was some merit in Buffett’s argument. "
Obama gets tax free income
While Obama wants to spread your income and Biden says it's "patriotic" to pay more taxes, Obama plans to spread your income but keep more of his.
DEMS' CAMPAIGN-FINANCE HYPOCRISY
Admits a Democrat.
"The next time we speak of the virtue of level playing fields or state our strong belief that democracy can't survive in the modern age unless big money is taken out of campaigns, we'll be counting on our audience's forgetting our silence this year, when the free market was flowing in our direction.
A hypocrite is a person who puts on a false appearance of virtue - who acts in contradiction to his or her stated beliefs or feelings. And that, it seems to me, is what we're doing now. "
Obama - 'A New Kind of Politics'? Good Luck With That.
Some are starting to see the real Obama - and they don't like what they see. As you read this, remember, this is in the Washington Post - the paper that just backed Obama.
She ends with this.
Obama nerver stood up to the Democrats in the Senate and if elected he would be unable to.
Here's a Democrat speech writer that has realized what a mistake she was making. Let's hope more Americans wake up before it's too late.
"Yet Obama has run a rather standard Democratic campaign, largely obeisant to party constituencies and allergic to difficult choices. Run it brilliantly, yes, but not with much more than a passing hint of the new politics he envisions. Better angels, it seems, do not make the best campaign strategists.
Accepting his party's nomination in Denver, Obama decried the use of "stale tactics to scare voters." A few weeks later, he was airing ads warning that John McCain wanted to privatize Social Security and would slash seniors' benefits almost in half. You can't get much staler than that."
She ends with this.
What evidence is there that a President Obama would govern differently than candidate Obama campaigned? Would a President Obama press policies -- on teacher accountability, on climate change, on trade -- that discomfit Democratic Party interest groups? Does he have the spine to stand up to the inevitably overreaching demands of congressional Democrats? Does he have some magical, Republican-whisperer ability to quell a political opposition that will be determined from Day One to frustrate his program and regain power?
Obama's closing argument offers reassuring words, undergirded by his evident instinct for consensus and pragmatism.
I know how he wants to govern. I'm not convinced he can pull it off.

Audio: Obama - I choose Marxist Professors
Obama can't deny he choose them - it's on tape.
And they taught him well. Now you know why Obama wants to spread your income around.
Listen for yourself.
"To avoid being mistaken for a sellout, I chose my friends carefully. The more politically active black students. The foreign students. The Chicanos. The Marxist professors and structural feminists."
And they taught him well. Now you know why Obama wants to spread your income around.
Listen for yourself.
Here's what we KNOW is on the Obama Khalidi tape
Scroll down to this.
Now you know why the LA Times won't release the tape.
Obama can't claim he hardly knew Khalidi either.
Obama and Khalidi were close friends - just like Obama was with terrorist Ayers.
"He says, "A special tribute came from Khalidi's friend and frequent dinner companion, the young State Senator Barack Obama... Obama reminisced about meals prepared by Khalidi's wife... and conversations that had challenged his thinking."

5 Things You Won't See in Tonight's Obama Infomercial
Gateway Pundit has them.

Hidin' Biden: Reining In a Voluble No. 2
Does this sound like someone who should be VP?
Biden is so bad they have to shrink wrap him. Think about that for a minute. How disastrous would Biden be as VP?
"But traveling with Biden during this campaign has sometimes been like reporting on a politician packaged in shrink-wrap. While his windy, off-point pontification was the stuff of legend among his Senate colleagues, Biden is now leashed to a teleprompter even when he is talking in a high school gym that is three-quarters empty. The exposure hound who in recent years appeared more often than any other guest on the Sunday talk shows is a virtual stranger to the small band of reporters on his plane — less accessible than even Sarah Palin is to her traveling pack of bloodhounds. "
Biden is so bad they have to shrink wrap him. Think about that for a minute. How disastrous would Biden be as VP?
What are Obama's accomplishments?
Even his supporters can't list any. That's because they aren't any.
People are voting for a man who has done absolutely nothing - except campaign.
Here's a video of a Democrat who can't name one Obama accomplishment.
JEFFREY SACHS: This is your extra-credit question. Name the most significant thing Barack Obama has done --
MIKA BRZEZINSKI: There you go.
SCARBOROUGH: -- on the national stage. Just name one. Big one. Big thing.
SACHS: What he's done is bring the country together on a new direction.
SCARBOROUGH: No, no, no, no. That's mish-mash.
SACHS: That's the most important--that's not mish-mash. That is not mish-mash.
SCARBOROUGH: Legislatively.
SACHS: The most important thing for a senator who's been in for a few years is define a direction out of this mess, and that's what he's done. that's why he's going to win the election.
SCARBOROUGH: Not a specific, I can't get a specific. I love your hair. I can't get a specific out of him.
SACHS: The specific is that he's defined a way to achieve energy and new approaches for this country.
SCARBOROUGH: Where do I find that in the Congressional Record?
People are voting for a man who has done absolutely nothing - except campaign.
Here's a video of a Democrat who can't name one Obama accomplishment.
Two quotes from the Obama-Khalidi videotape
Of course the LA Times could prove them wrong.
I'm guessing if they ever do release the tape it will be heavily edited.
"Saw a clip from the tape. Reason we can't release it is because statements Obama said to rile audience up during toast. He congratulates Khalidi for his work saying "Israel has no God-given right to occupy Palestine" plus there's been "genocide against the Palestinian people by Israelis."
It would be really controversial if it got out. Tha's why they will not even let a transcript get out."
I'm guessing if they ever do release the tape it will be heavily edited.
Why Obama and ACORN fear Anita MonCrief
Read the whole thing.
"Bottom line: ACORN has been improperly coordinating with and operating as an arm of the Obama campaign, and "the Senator from ACORN"'s involvement with ACORN has been much more than his lawful representation of ACORN in the motor voter case years ago."
Some in Britain get Obama
More in America need to.
"Obama has approved the bombing of targets inside Pakistan (and presumably now Syria) and proposed invasion to "secure" that country's nuclear arsenal. He has backtracked on compromise with Iran and done nothing to suggest an end to the macho provocation of Russia.
At home Obama would appear from his statements and voting records to be a conventional Democrat, essentially tax, spend and protect with tariffs. While some of this is America's business, the world economy needs a protectionist US like a bullet in the head. American markets open to world goods are vital for recovery, as is America's active participation in the easing of world trade. Obama has shown no sign of accepting this."
Democrat speech writer voting for McCain
Let's hope a lot more of them wake up before it's too late.
The party I believed in wouldn’t look down on working people under any circumstance. And Joe the Plumber is right. This is the absolutely worst time to raise taxes on anyone: the rich, the middle class, the poor, small businesses and corporations.
Our economy is in the tank for many complicated reasons, especially because people don’t have enough money. So let them keep it. Let businesses keep it so they can create jobs and stay here and weather this storm. And yet, the Democratic ideology remains the same. Our approach to problems—big government solutions paid for by taxing the rich and big and smaller companies—is just as tired and out of date as trickle down economics. How about a novel approach that simply finds a sane way to stop the bleeding?
That’s not exactly the philosophy of a Democrat. Not only has this party belittled working people in this campaign from Joe the Plumber to the bitter comments, it has also been part of tearing down two female candidates. At first, certain Democrats and the press called Senator Clinton “dishonest.” They went after her cleavage. They said her experience as First Lady consisted of having tea parties. There was no outrage over “Bros before Hoes” or “Iron My Shirt.” Did Senator Clinton make mistakes? Of course. She’s human.
But here we are about a week out and it’s déjà vu all over again. Really, front-page news is how the Republican National Committee paid for Governor Sarah Palin’s wardrobe? Where’s the op-ed about how Obama tucks in his shirt when he plays basketball or how Senator Biden buttons the top button on his golf shirt?
Obama's fraudulent online donations
are huge. And they're helping him buy this election.
"Largely" untraceable? "Potentially" be used? No, they have been used to evade limits. But not a bad start. Here's a glimpse of the scale of the operation:
So two-thirds of Obama's record haul derives from a website that intentionally disabled all the default security checks that prevent basic fraud like fake addresses and no-name matches.
"Largely" untraceable? "Potentially" be used? No, they have been used to evade limits. But not a bad start. Here's a glimpse of the scale of the operation:
The Obama campaign has shattered presidential fundraising records, in part by capitalizing on the ease of online giving. Of the $150 million the senator from Illinois raised in September, nearly $100 million came in over the Internet.

Where McCain scores over Obama
Where doesn't he?
"McCain is one of the few American politicians in either party with the courage and conviction to stand up to protectionist populism. By contrast, Obama embodies protectionism.
Look at the accompanying chart. It shows that McCain has voted 88% of the time against bills creating trade barriers, and 90% of the time against export subsidies for US producers. Few other senators have such a splendid record.
Obama has served a much shorter time in the Senate, and avoided voting on many key issues. He has voted against trade barriers only 36% of the time. He supported export subsidies on the two occasions on which he voted, a 100% protectionist record in this regard. "
Media paying financial price for Obama bias
They deserve every bit of it and more. The day the New York Times announced it's support for Obama, it's stock was downgraded to junk. There's a connnection.
Obama donors get access to top advisers
This is change? This isn't cange, it's called influence peddling.
"A “Round Table Discussion” in Boston with Robert E. Rubin, who was Treasury Secretary under President Bill Clinton and talked on the phone with Obama as the financial crisis broke out, cost $28,500.
And a reception in Boston with former Sen. Thomas Daschle (D-S.D.), a possible chief of staff in an Obama White House, was offered for $500 or $2,500.
Tickets to a reception in Boston with Sen. John Kerry (D-Mass.), a possible secretary of Defense in an Obama cabinet, were offered for a bargain-basement $250 or $500."
Obama breaks promise on campaign finance
If elected, he'll break a lot more promises.
So much for reaching across the aisle, eh Obama?
The reason for public financing is so no one can buy the election. So, how's that working out?
You ok with Obama buying the election?
"One year ago, he made a promise. He pledged to accept public financing and to work with the Republican nominee to ensure that they both operated within those limits."
So much for reaching across the aisle, eh Obama?
The reason for public financing is so no one can buy the election. So, how's that working out?
"Just to throw a number out: He has raised well over $600 million since the start of his campaign, close to what George Bush and John Kerry raised combined in 2004. "

Obama puts The American dream on hold
by spreading the income.
Now this group of superachievers is being targeted as a cash machine. Barack Obama has pledged to pay for middle-class tax cuts and credits by raising taxes on the HENRYs. Obama and the congressional Democrats frequently refer to households earning over $250,000 as the "rich." But whether the HENRYs are truly "rich," or ever will be, is debatable.
Media/Democrats tried to dig up dirt on Joe
This is what they do if you dare question them. Just imagine the police state Obama would create if elected.
* "The Toledo Police Department announced today that a civilian employee improperly pulled Wurzelbacher's information on behalf of a reporter for a Toledo television station shortly after the Oct. 15 presidential debate. The employee has been charged with gross misconduct and faces a disciplinary hearing, said Chief Michael Navarre. He declined to identify the TV station, but said the reporter confirmed asking for a check on Wurzelbacher's address.
* "The Cuyahoga County Child Support Enforcement Agency also said an employee's computer was used to improperly access Bureau of Motor Vehicles records on 'Joe the Plumber.' The employee denies involvement.
* "Another access of Wurzelbacher's information, by an outside contractor who had access to an attorney general's office test account, is being investigated by the State Highway Patrol.
* "Inspector General Thomas P. Charles is investigating why the director of Ohio Department of Job and Family Services approved a check on Wurzelbacher through the state's child-support computer system. Director Helen Jones-Kelley said that after a 'team meeting,' she OK'd the check because the department often runs inquiries to check for unpaid child support when people are thrust into 'the public spotlight.'"
Jones-Kelly, a Democratic appointee who has given the Obama campaign $2,500, claimed to have had no political motivations when she allowed the check.
Terrorist Ayers Stays Mum on Ties to Obama
Left wing media starting to pay attention to Obama's terror pals - NOW?
And according to eyewitness that were there.
Ayers said as he left court, "Guilty as hell and free as a bird".
"Asked by the student, if he repudiated the actions of the Weather Underground, which carried out a series of 1960's robberies and bombings that killed at least six people, Ayers walked away without answering. "...
Obama served on the board of an education reform group with Ayers in Chicago, where both men were prominent figures.
When Obama first ran for public office, in 1995, Ayers held a fundraiser for him at his house, according to a February 2008 article on Politico.com.
And according to eyewitness that were there.
"Charges against Ayers were dropped in the 1970's after revelations of illegal FBI wiretapping."
Ayers said as he left court, "Guilty as hell and free as a bird".
Democrat Wants Controversial Obama Video Released
Why won't the LA Times release the video? What is the Times trying to hide.
"In the commercial the narrator tells viewers: "Obama says Iran is a 'tiny' country, doesn't pose a serious threat. Terrorism? Destroying Israel? Those aren't serious threats?"
But in addition to the McCain ad, there is the question of Obama's ties to friends of Yasser Arafat raised in the Los Angeles Times. The newspaper has a video, which it is not releasing, of Obama partying and toasting a friend, Rashid Khalidi, who was once a spokesman for the Palestinian Liberation Organization and is now a Columbia professor.
The newspaper reported that during the Khalidi party, "a young Palestinian American woman recited a poem accusing the Israeli government of terrorism in its treatment of Palestinians," and she sharply criticized U.S. support for Israel. If Palestinians cannot save their own land, she said, "then you will never see a day of peace."
"Why isn't the truth being told to the American people so they can really know what the relationship was between Sen. Obama and Rashid Khalidi?" asked New York Assemblyman Dov Hikind (D-Brooklyn). "

Obama Affinity to Marxists Dates Back to College Days
Read the whole thing.
But Obama himself acknowledges that he was drawn to socialists and even Marxists as a college student. He continued to associate with Marxists later in life, even choosing to launch his political career in the living room of a self-described Marxist, William Ayers, in 1995, when Obama was 34.
Obama's affinity for Marxists began when he attended Occidental College in Los Angeles.
"To avoid being mistaken for a sellout, I chose my friends carefully," the Democratic presidential candidate wrote in his memoir, "Dreams From My Father." "The more politically active black students. The foreign students. The Chicanos. The Marxist professors and structural feminists."
Obama's interest in leftist politics continued after he transferred to Columbia University in New York. He lived on Manhattan's Upper East Side, venturing to the East Village for what he called "the socialist conferences I sometimes attended at Cooper Union."
Why did the Democrats ignore the looming crisis
They were paid to look the other way.
Obama is number two on the list who got money from Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, the two companies at the heart of the world's worst financial crisis.
"But Democrats themselves have close ties to the financial industry, as well as to the mortgage industry. Indeed, figures from the nonpartisan Center for Responsive Politics indicate that more than half the campaign contributions that the securities and investment industry has made in the past two years have gone to Democrats -- more than $61 million.
Similarly, when Democrats took control of Congress after the 2006 midterm elections, the securities and investment industry also gave just over half its contributions to Democrats -- more than $36 million."

Socialist of America support Obama
But of course, he's one of them.
Don't forget, the Communist Party of America supports Obama as well.
Now do you see what Ayers saw in Obama and why he picked Obama?

Murtha Calls Western Pa. 'Redneck' - video
That's after he called them racist.
And after Obama said they cling to their Bibles and guns out of bitterness.
And let's not forget how Obama wants to "spread the wealth around".
You see how these liberal elites think they are so much better than us?

Biden harbors doubts about Obama - video
No surprise there. Biden is on record saying Obama isn't ready to be President.
Probably because it's above Obama's paygrade.
Here's a video of Biden saying Obama isn't qualified.
Probably because it's above Obama's paygrade.
"He seems to be predicting some very serious incident that’s going to take place and he seems to think that the reaction isn’t going to be the right one," Giuliani said in a conference call with reporters. "This is an extraordinary statement."
Here's a video of Biden saying Obama isn't qualified.
Proof Obama launched his career in Ayers home
See here for a first hand account.
"When I first met Barack Obama, he was giving a standard, innocuous little talk in the livingroom of those two legends-in-their-own-minds, Bill Ayers and Bernardine Dohrn. They were launching him–introducing him to the Hyde Park community as the best thing since sliced bread."
Democrat Frank: Plenty of people that we can tax
Obama and the Democrats are so sure they are going to win that they're all openly bragging that they are going to raise taxes.
Obama: 'Barack the Income Spender'
Nice to see CNN notice.
Not if Obama gets in Tito. What you "made" Obama is going to spread around. What's left Barney Frank is going to tax and Biden says it's your patriotic duty to pay them.
"Munoz’s stand against the media was detailed by Byron York on the web site of the National Review magazine, and Palin was eager to thrust the tale into the political spotlight.
“Tito is not pleased with how the Barack Obama campaign and some of the media friends there have been roughing up Joe the Plumber,” Palin said, after accusing the Obama campaign of “investigating” Wurzelbacher’s background.
“He has a question of his own, and Barack Obama is not going to like this one either. Tito wants to know, and I quote, he asked, ‘Why the heck are you going after Joe the Plumber? Joe the Plumber has an idea. He has a future. He wants to be something greater. He wants to be something else. Why is that so wrong?’”
“Tito explained that he’s an immigrant from Colombia and he also had this reminder for us,” Palin continued. “He says, quote, ‘Everything is possible in America. I made it.’”
Not if Obama gets in Tito. What you "made" Obama is going to spread around. What's left Barney Frank is going to tax and Biden says it's your patriotic duty to pay them.
Obama admits he heard Wright condemn America in church
Video at the link.
Maybe, but Obama sat there for 20 years while Wright spewed his anti American hate and black supremacy. And I somehow doubt many Americans would sit there for more than one sermon.
"For some, nagging questions remain. Did I know him to be an occasionally fierce critic of American domestic and foreign policy? Of course. Did I ever hear him make remarks that could be considered controversial while I sat in church? Yes. Did I strongly disagree with many of his political views? Absolutely – just as I’m sure many of you have heard remarks from your pastors, priests, or rabbis with which you strongly disagreed. "
Maybe, but Obama sat there for 20 years while Wright spewed his anti American hate and black supremacy. And I somehow doubt many Americans would sit there for more than one sermon.
Obama gets tax free income
While Obama wants to spread your income and Biden says it's "patriotic" to pay more taxes, Obama plans to spread your income but keep more of his.
"Obama has proposed a host of increases that would raise the federal income-tax rate on top earners -- and not just that 1% -- to 52% from 35%, according to an analysis by Investor's Business Daily. That calculation includes applying the 12.4% payroll tax that funds Social Security to some income above the current $102,000 cap, and letting some of President Bush's tax cuts expire.
His former rival for the Democratic nomination, Hillary Clinton, has called his plan to raise Social Security taxes "a trillion-dollar tax hike on the middle class."
Interest on municipal bonds, however, is exempt from tax, which is why Obama's Northern Trust fund generates tax-free income.
Despite repeated requests over several days, the Obama campaign declined to comment."
Obama - "Just tax the heck out of people"
That's the Democrats for you.
"“If you talk to Warren [Buffet], he’ll tell you his preference is not to meddle in the economy at all — let the market work, however way it’s going to work, and then just tax the heck out of people at the end and just redistribute it,” Obama said. “That way you’re not impeding efficiency, and you’re achieving equity on the back end.” He continued by saying that he thought there was some merit in Buffett’s argument. "
Compare McCain and Obama - video
"ANNCR: Your choice...
For higher taxes ... for workin' Joe's.
Spread your income ... keep what's yours.
A trillion in new spending ... freeze spending, eliminate waste.
Pain for small business ... economic growth.
Risky ... proven.
For a stronger America, McCain.
JOHN MCCAIN: I'm John McCain and I approve this message."
Lawyers who supervise voting rights are Obama donors.
Justice and Vote Fraud
"The lawyers at the Civil Rights Division are already falling into line. Justice recently decided to reverse a policy in place since 2002 to send criminal attorneys and other federal employees to monitor polling places. The decision came two weeks after a September meeting to which the Civil Rights Division invited dozens of left-wing activist groups to discuss voter "access" to the polls.
Justice has also failed to enter the fray in Ohio. As many as 200,000 new voter registrations in that state are suspect, yet Democratic Secretary of State Jennifer Brunner is refusing to follow the 2002 Help America Vote Act that requires her to verify these registrations. The Ohio Republican Party sued Mrs. Brunner, but the Supreme Court said the GOP lacked standing. Justice does have standing -- it is charged with upholding that law -- but has ignored the fight. The Justice excuse is that it isn't appropriate to file litigation so close to Election Day."
Obama Lawyer Intimidating Student Journalists
A vote for Obama is a vote for a police state.
Biden bans TV stations and Obama uses lawyers to threaten student jounalists. So when Obama starts to redistribute your wealth, you won't be able to do anything about it.

O'Reilly Factor Reports on the Obama-Khalidi Tape (Video)
LA Times still refuses to release the tape. I'm guessing even if they do release it now, it will be heavily edited so as to protect Obama.
Obama Compared America to Nazi Germany
Wake up America.
“...just to take a, sort of a realist perspective...there’s a lot of change going on outside of the Court, um, that, that judges essentially have to take judicial notice of. I mean you’ve got World War II, you’ve got uh, uh, uh, the doctrines of Nazism, that, that we are fighting against, that start looking uncomfortably similar to what we have going on, back here at home.”
Muslims execute woman by stoning her to death
Islamic Sharia law court found her guilty of adultery
Remember, Britain has now given full legal backing to Islamic courts here in the UK.
"A woman in Somalia has been stoned to death after an Islamic Sharia law court found her guilty of adultery.
The woman was buried up to her neck and then pelted to death with stones in front of a large crowd in Kismayo. "

DUBIOUS DONATIONS for Obama
The New York Post reports.
Just a preview of the illegal activities Obama and his cronies will get up to if elected. And with the left wing media in their camp no one will report it.
"But the Obama campaign is running a system that complicates the discovery of "something wrong." It has chosen to operate an online contribution system that facilitates illegal falsely sourced contributions, illegal foreign contributions and the evasion of contribution limits. "
Just a preview of the illegal activities Obama and his cronies will get up to if elected. And with the left wing media in their camp no one will report it.
Obama has a problem with the constitution
Those thinking of voting for Obama better wake up and fast.
But as Ed points out...
Obama: " It didn’t break free from the essential constraints that were placed by the founding fathers in the Constitution..."
But as Ed points out...
"One more clarifying thought is in order. Barack Obama complains that the Constitution is a “charter of negative liberties”. That’s because the Constitution was intended as a limiting document, to curtail the power of the federal government vis-a-vis the states and the individual. The founders intended at the time to limit the reach of the federal government, and built the Constitution accordingly.
Barack Obama wants to reverse that entirely. And that’s radical change you’d better believe in, or else."
The L.A. Times Suppresses Obama’s Khalidi Bash Tape
But of course.
"Obama, Ayers, and PLO supporters toast Edward Said’s successor, but the press doesn’t think it’s quite as newsworthy as Sarah Palin’s wardrobe."
Barack Obama Targets Kids
I blogged about this the other day but here's a more in depth look.
How disturbing is this?
Use your grandparents as a weapon? Sick.
How disturbing is this?
"The one thing most grandparents have in common is that they have the most wonderful grandchildren in the world - so clever, so handsome, so pretty, ever so precious. Even if you are still unsure of your path in life, and even if your parents and friends occasionally wonder about you, your grandma and grandpa love you and have faith in you.
That is your weapon! “Precious” needs to get on the phone and say, “Grandpa, Grandma, I am asking you to vote for Barack Obama. This is really important to me. It’s about my future. It’s about the world I will be living in. It’s about the world I want for my future children. (They will love that one!) Please! Do it for me!”
Put some urgency in your voice. Sound very disappointed in them if they give you excuses. Come back again, even harder."
Use your grandparents as a weapon? Sick.
Obama: OK for Courts to Redistribute Wealth
Nice to see this getting some attention.
A socialist belief system that is.
"So Obama's comments reflect a core belief system that he's apparently held for years and continues to hold."
A socialist belief system that is.
Barack Obama reignites fears of socialism
At least the UK media are reporting on Obama's scandals.
As President with a Democrat congress and the left wing media on his team, Obama will have that "coalition of powers" he needs to force socialism on America.
"Mr Obama said: "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 organising and activities on the ground that are able to put together the actual coalition of powers through which you bring about redistributive change. In some ways we still suffer from that."
As President with a Democrat congress and the left wing media on his team, Obama will have that "coalition of powers" he needs to force socialism on America.
Obama's ACORN: Tax Deadbeats
Here's another Obama scandal you won't see in the left wing media.
Ironically, ACORN and its affiliates, all reliable cheerleaders for higher taxes, are longtime tax deadbeats. A search of public records found more than 200 tax liens adding up to more than $3.7 million are associated with groups that share ACORN’s address on Elysian Fields Avenue in New Orleans. The most recent lien, in the amount of $23,383, was filed by the IRS against an ACORN affiliate, American Workers Associates Inc., on September 9, 2008.
Protesters rail against Obama’s ‘socialism’
I bet you won't see this in a lot of the left wing media.
"I lived under socialism and we were taxed huge amounts and it was going to people who did not work," said Dijkstra, who moved to the United States in 2003. "That is part of the reason I fled home."
Boonstoppel said he was taxed up to 52 percent and did want to see the same happen here under an Obama administration.
Media's Presidential Bias and Decline
ABC News reports on the media being in the tank for Obama. And puts the story in the business section!
Government computers used to find information on Joe the Plumber
If Obama is elected, you'll see a lot more of this. A Democrat controlled congress won't investigate and neither will the left wing media currently doing all they can to elect him. Obama will create a police state and there will be no one to stop him.
Obama: “I’m not interested in the suburbs. The suburbs bore me.”
There are some other revealing bits in this article from the NYT.
Does this sound familiar?
And this:
"Economic justice"? Sounds like spreading the wealth doesn't it?
"Mr. Obama was modest and careful. (In a rare slip, he told The Associated Press: “I’m not interested in the suburbs. The suburbs bore me.”) "
Does this sound familiar?
"His speeches, delivered in the oratorical manner of a Baptist minister, were more memorable for style than substance, Mr. Mack said.
“It’s the inspiration of the speech rather than the specific content,” he said."
And this:
"In dozens of interviews, his friends said they could not remember his specific views from that era, beyond a general emphasis on diversity and social and economic justice. "
"Economic justice"? Sounds like spreading the wealth doesn't it?
OBAMA: "WHITE FOLK'S GREED RUNS A WORLD IN NEED"
Here's why Obama told Joe the Plumber that Obama wanted to redistribute Joe's money.
After you listen to that, listen to Obama's answer to Joe again.
After you listen to that, listen to Obama's answer to Joe again.
How dare he point out Obama's fraud?
It's not an error. Obama deliberately disabled the most basic security checks.
You know very little about website credit card transactions then. The safeguards are turned on automatically and you have to disable them manually.
"Wondering if we can't prosecute the person who exposed the campaign's error smacks of police state tactics. Yes, I still support Obama, and I have no reason to think that the error was deliberate. But that doesn't mean that I think the Obama team has a right to have its errors protected from public exposure."
You know very little about website credit card transactions then. The safeguards are turned on automatically and you have to disable them manually.
Obama attended anti Israel bash
A blast from the past.
"In bringing professor Khalidi to Morningside Heights from the University of Chicago, Columbia also got itself a twofer of Palestinian activism and advocacy. Mr. Khalidi's wife, Mona, who also served in Beirut as chief editor of the English section of the WAFA press agency, was hired as dean of foreign students at Columbia's SIPA, working under Dean Anderson. In Chicago, the Khalidis founded the Arab American Action Network, and Mona Khalidi served as its president. A big farewell dinner was held in their honor by AAAN with a commemorative book filled with testimonials from their friends and political allies. These included the left wing anti-war group Not In My Name, the Electronic Intifada, and the ex-Weatherman domestic terrorists Bernadine Dohrn and Bill Ayers. (There were also testimonials from then-state Senator Barack Obama and the mayor of Chicago.)"
2001 OBAMA: 'TRAGEDY' THAT 'REDISTRIBUTION OF WEALTH' NOT PURSUED
More proof Obama is a socialist.
With the Democrats controlling both houses of congress and if Obama wins, he'll have that "coalition of powers" to redistribute your money.
Remember, Obama told Joe the Plumber that Obama wanted to spread Joe's wealth around.
And we know why Obama thinks wealth needs to be redistributed. "OBAMA: "WHITE FOLK'S GREED RUNS A WORLD IN NEED" Listen for yourself.
"Barack Obama on Chicago Public Radio WBEZ-FM, 2001: The Supreme Court never ventured into the issues of redistribution of wealth, and of more basic issues such as political and economic justice in society... and one of the, I think, tragedies of the civil rights movement was, um, 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 coalition of powers through which you bring about redistributive change.

Muslim children can't be exempt from compulsory swimming lessons
The Swiss showing some backbone. Britain could learn from this.
Good for them.
"It justified its change of position by saying that society had changed in the last 15 years. Exempting children from compulsory lessons would undermine efforts at integration.
The president of the relevant court said the judgement was not aimed against the Muslim community or against freedom of religion. It was designed to help schools fulfil their task of integration."
Good for them.
Do blogs matter this election?
Charles of LGF dismisses a claim from the left that we do not. It was Charles you may remember that proved Mapes, Dan Rather and CBS used forged documents in an attempt to steal the last election. "Rathergate" as the scandal became known ended both their careers.
Here's what Mapes said.
But is there some truth to what Mapes says? Let's compare the last election with this one and see.
In the last election the majority of the left wing media reported every twist and turn in the Rathergate and Swift Boat furors. Every new fact and rebuttal was reported, analyzed and bloggers behind the revelations were duly noted, or attacked, in the media. Thus, thanks to bloggers and the medias reporting thereof, life was breathed into the stories and the truth came out - Kerry lost.
In this election there is far more scandal surrounding Obama than there was Kerry. Even better, this time there are numerous video and audio tapes to prove Obama's guilt. There's Rev Wright, Ayers, Rezko, Khalidi and ACORN - all well documented scandals. Not to mention the worlds worst financial crisis can be traced directly to the Democrats with loads of video proof.
Now compare how the left wing media have reacted this election compared to the last. Silence. The media are simply ignoring the Obama scandals that would normally end any politicians career. And if the media says anything at all its in defense of Obama or personal attacks on the Republicans. The only ones reporting on the Obama scandals are the bloggers and the media is ignoring them this election.
And it's working. By simply ignoring the scandals and bloggers, the left wing media is insuring the public never hears about them. Worse, since the media reach far more viewers than bloggers, we're almost back to the time before bloggers existed with the media controlling the megaphone.
To be sure bloggers do have an impact but I think there's no doubt the left wing media can still steer the narrative. If we are to change that, bloggers are going to have to take blogging to the next level or develop a new model. And we better do it fast, for if Obama is elected we will be the only checks and balance on the government.
In the kind of sloppy, childish rhetoric that passes for deep thinking on the left, Mary Mapes—the discredited, fired partisan hack who tried to tilt the last presidential election with fraudulent documents—gloats that the Republican Monster is Dying.
Here's what Mapes said.
"Ha, ha.
Nothing makes me happier than seeing once swaggering players like Powerline, Free Republic and Little Green Footballs forced onto the sidelines, left to limply watch this campaign pass by like a parade in which they play no meaningful part.
They just don’t matter anymore."
But is there some truth to what Mapes says? Let's compare the last election with this one and see.

Oliver's Biopic 'W.' Drops Like A Stone
Excellent!
Fantastic!
"There's been tremdous interest by the public in the box office fate of Oliver Stone's W. for its second weekend in release. Well, it ran out of steam. QED International/Lionsgate's Bush biopic sank 58% to No. 8 with $1.5 million Friday from 2,050 dates for what will probably be a $5.2M weekend. The $30M negative cost film should end up with $23M domestic box office gross by the end of its North American run. That means, with a $25M P&A investment and Lionsgate's distribution fees, the film won't recoup."
Fantastic!

So why would any conservative think that Obama—friend of Ayers, Khalidi, Meeks, Pfleger, and Wright, veteran of mysterious campaigns in which rivals in 1996 and 2004 simply dropped out or were forced out, erstwhile advocate of repealing NAFTA, controlling guns, stopping new drilling and nuclear plants, zealot for bringing all troops home by March 2008, advocate of a trillion dollars in new spending, and raising the tax burden on the 5% who now pay 60% of the aggregate income taxes, supporter of more oppression studies and racial reparations—would not likewise try to govern as he has lived the last 20 years?
Why would anyone think that an Obama would not wish to enact the visions of those who first backed him—the Moveon.org crowd, ACORN, The Huffington Post, Sen. Reid, Rep. Pelosi, a Chris Dodd or Barney Frank—rather than the late pilers-on like Colin Powell or Scott McClellan? We should remember that, unlike the cases of Carter and Clinton, Obama would have both houses of Congress, and a (Republican) precedent of the federal government intervening into the free market, in the manner of 1932.

Laser beam spy camera joins war on terrorism
Interesting.
A laser that can scan a crowd and identify people who have been handling explosives is being secretly tested at British airports and railway stations.
The device - no bigger than a shoe box - could also be used by police and MI5 surveillance teams to identify Islamic terrorists outside mosques or community centres.
The laser can pick out suspects in large crowds and highlight explosive residue on their clothing and luggage.

Obama encouraging fraudlent donations
No surprise there. And no surprise the left wing media are ignoring the scandal.
Police killer Ayers calls police for help - video
Now this is irony. I wonder if the police knew Ayers background? Police normally do not like cop killers.
Ayers new book: Race Course Against White Supremacy
Sure to be a hit with the Obama crowd.
They're terrorists.
"White supremacy and its troubling endurance in American life is debated in these personal essays by two veteran political activists. Arguing that white supremacy has been the dominant political system in the United States since its earliest days—and that it is still very much with us—the discussion points to unexamined bigotry in the criminal justice system, election processes, war policy, and education. The book draws upon the authors' own confrontations with authorities during the Vietnam era, reasserts their belief that racism and war are interwoven issues, and offers personal stories about their lives today as parents, teachers, and reformers. "

Obama & Pelosi Plot to Destroy Secret Ballot
Obama doesn't want voter id in the elections but they don't want secret union ballot.
"Just days from now, voters will head to the polls facing the ultimate irony: potentially electing a President and congressional majority prepared to strip millions of Americans of the same right they will exercise on November 4th inside voting booths across the country: the right to a secret ballot. At stake is the American working men and women’s right to preserve their privacy during workplace unionization elections – a right Democratic leaders like Barack Obama, Nancy Pelosi, and Harry Reid are ready to replace with a decidedly undemocratic process known as a “card check.”
