" Obama – Black is Wright
Obama attracts thugs and bullies to his campaign and personal life and is able to do so with impunity.
If Obama where Caucasian, he would have been bulldozed by the media long ago.
Look at Obama’s affiliations:
- Senator Meeks who openly hates whites and gays and is listed prominently on Obama’s campaign website as a major Obama supporter and backer and is one of Obama;s super-delegate. Mr. Meeks has been integral in helping Mr. Obama succeed in politics.
- Mr. Ayers of the Weather Underground, a group that killed police and tried to bomb the US Capitol, served with Obama on the board of the leftist foundation called the Woods Fund.
- Robert Malley a close senior adviser to Obama who advocates negotiations with Hamas and providing international assistance to the terrorist group.
- Larry Sinclair alleges in 1999 Senator Obama’s arranged to meet him in a limousine, sold Senator Obama cocaine and then gave Senator Obama oral sex. Larry then claims that he and Obama went to a hotel and preformed oral sex again. Mr. Sinclair is testifying in court under oath that these allegations are true.
- Mr. Auchi is an Iraqi billionaire and major financial sponsor and closely connected to Obama’s rise to power.
While working with Saddam Hussein, Auchi made his fortune through the selling of arms in Iraq and the funneling off of money from the Oil for Food program.
- Mr. Rezko an Iraqi citizen and Obama’s and Auchi’s long time friend and a major mob figure. Rezko is NOT known for his civic sense of duty and does not do favors without asking something in return. Coincidently in the Chicago Times today it was reported that Rezko was negotiating to purchase rehab buildings in Obama’s district.
- Mr. Wright a racist who hates America and whites with Hitleresque triads. Mr. Wright has been Mr. Obama’s spiritual mentor for over 20 years. Before the media exposed Mr. Wright, Mr. Wright was on Obama’s campaign staff as Obama's chief religious advisor. Mr. Wright and Mr. Meeks are ideologically closer to Karl Marx and Black Nationalism, than to Christianity.
- Rashid Khalidi a fundraiser for Obama and is one of Obama’s close friends. Khalidi Khalidi claim Israel as a "catastrophe", and supports Palestinian terrorist groups.
- Mr. McPeaks is Obama’s military adviser and national campaign co-chairman who publicly states that American Jews are the "problem." and “Christian Zionists were driving America's policy in Iraq to benefit Israel.”
- Michelle Obama trumpets Obama as “the second coming of the messiah,” and also states that she “has never been proud to be an AMERICAN in her adult life".
The list goes on…
How can Obama’s bad judgment to choose to affiliate with criminals and fanatics be justified?
Had Hillary Clinton had any of the above ghosts in her closet, she would have been thrown out of the election long ago.
Hey everybody - am I missing something here?
Are we so in love with the color black that we forget to see the man?

" Jeremy,
The Ron Paul racist letters were a big controversy. I firmly believe he did not know about them, he says he didn't know about them, even the president of the NAACP says Ron is a stand up guy who has always treated those, that the racial remarks would apply to, with utmost respect. If you listen to Dr. Paul you will quickly learn it is not in his character or his interest to defamate an innocent group. "

" As a Jew, and someone totally not in line with the conversation between Billy Graham and Nixon, I do have to add that all "paranoia" is based on some thing out of whack that produces a distorted fear. Certainly, the moneyed now have control of the press. I am currently listening to CNN where many, many commercials are about "clean" enery...and these energies are awful, dangerous, energies like nuclear. The pros are presented by the owners of the companies, the cons are never mentioned by the news commentators.
In the same vein, Reverend Wright has point, too. There is a history many Americans don't know or choose not to accept re: medical experiments on Black people (syphilis for sure), and it is true we need to look at why we are so hated world wide, when we get attacked.
As a licensed psychologist, I know healthy families love each other and are "proud to be" a member of their family, despite apparent problems. They are most likely to heal and overcome these problems if they acknowledge them, and don't put their heads in the sand.
Likewise, denying our country's history is not a good "patriotic" thing to do, but rather embracing the good and the bad leads to progress.
I support Barack Obama because I believe he is a healer, and will be the only one to move us forward. Hillary's win at any cost "kitchen sink" campaign has been destructive to our country, as has Bill Clinton's presidency (many of the "paranoid" statements of Wright re: imprisoning of black men with stiff sentences for minor crimes have been brought to us by Bill.
This is a truly exciting election, and the involvement of young people, across the racial and economic spectrum is the best part of all. "

" Barack Obama is a fraud and a liar. It's so disgusting to see people fall for this empty suit soundbyte. If he didn't have excellent speechwriters and teleprompters where would he be today? He never was faced in a serious election before. In Chicago he court challenged every signature of his rivals (even his own former mentor Alice Palmer) and had them kicked off the IL Senate ballot until he was the last person standing. He is a fraud and eats his own. He played the race card and now even I, living in Chicago, have to walk on eggshells and watch what I say. Just this past Saturday one of Obama's own delegates was fined 75 dollars in a Chicago suburb for telling some neighborhood black kids to get down from a tree and stop playing like monkeys. A nosey neighbor called the police on her!!! WTH???
Obama has destroyed the Democratic party. I am 100% Hillary Clinton and if she is not the nominee I will not only vote for McCain, I will raise money for him and campaign for him.
Obama is a repulsive shell of a man that aligns himself with racists and America haters. He's even married to one. "

" All of the sudden white America cares about what is happening in black churches. It's nice to see such great concern. We have people who have never stepped foot in a black church a day in their lives that now write articles as if they are experts on the subject. 2 cent bloggers will try to keep this story alive for months, but there's really nothing here. Ron Paul has said most of what Wright said and nobody ever questioned his patriotism. "

" The best article on the Hillary campaign is by Dick Morris who knows the Clintons better than any of us:
http://www.realclearpolitics.com/articles/2008/04/hillarys_biggest_mistake.html
"From the very beginning of her solo political career, Hillary Clinton has manifested a consistently low opinion of the intelligence of voters. Sometimes the bet has paid off -- as when she tried to convince New Yorkers that she wanted to become one of them (when, in fact, she would have run in Montana had there been a vacancy). But lately, it hasn't. Her entire decision to predicate her campaign on the basis of her so-called "experience" reflected a belief that she could put one over on us by co-opting Bill's experience and making it her own."

" Two years after Bill Clinton cleaned up the first Bush, democrats lost Congress. Then they lost the presidency. Hillary is not half the negotiator as Bill but twice the fighter. The more she succeeds at first in “cleaning up after the 2nd Bush,” the harder the conservative pendulum will swing against her blocking future change.
Barrack's 800+ bills from 8 years in the Illinois senate are far more extensive than Hillary's entire elected record. Barrack is the ONLY candidate to pass Healthcare reform.
http://www.nytimes.com/imagepages/2007/07/29/us/politics/20070730_OBAMA_GRAPHIC.html
His first year in the U.S. Senate, he authored 152 bills and co-sponsored another 427. These included:
**the Coburn-Obama Government Transparency Act of 2006 (became law),
**The Lugar-Obama Nuclear Non-proliferation and Conventional Weapons Threat Reduction Act, (became law),
**The Comprehensive Immigration Reform Act, passed the Senate,
**The 2007 Government Ethics Bill, (became law),
**The Protection Against Excessive Executive Compensation Bill, (In committee), and many more.
Here is Hillary's entire record from six years in the US Senate from the Library-of-Congress website http://thomas.loc.gov
1. Establish the Kate Mullany National Historic Site.
2. Support the goals and ideals of Better Hearing and Speech Month.
3. Recognize the Ellis Island Medal of Honor.
4. Name courthouse after Thurgood Marshall.
5. Name courthouse after James L. Watson.
6. Name post office after Jonn A. O'Shea.
7. Designate Aug. 7, 2003, as National Purple Heart Recognition Day.
8. Support the goals and ideals of National Purple Heart Recognition Day.
9. Honor the life and legacy of Alexander Hamilton on the bicentennial of his death.
10. Congratulate the Syracuse Univ. Orange Men's Lacrosse Team on winning the championship.
11. Congratulate the Le Moyne College Dolphins Men's Lacrosse Team on winning the championship.
12. Establish the 225th Anniversary of the American Revolution Commemorative Program.
13. Name post office after Sergeant Riayan A. Tejeda.
14. Honor Shirley Chisholm for her service to the nation and express condolences on her death.
15. Honor John J. Downing, Brian Fahey, and Harry Ford, firefighters who lost their lives on duty.
16. Extend period of unemployment assistance to victims of 9/11.
17. Pay for city projects in response to 9/11
18. Assist landmine victims in other countries.
19. Assist family caregivers in accessing affordable respite care.
20. Designate part of the National Forest System in Puerto Rico as protected in the wilderness preservation system.
Barrack gets more done than Hillary BECAUSE he never gives up a chance to work with his opponents to move the ball in the general direction of our democratic goals. You see it in the way he has setup Healthcare, talking with enemies, his Iraq stance, NAFTA, on and on. Hilary's “shoot-for-the-moon” solutions kill pretty good ones without every getting implemented themselves. And then she cannot reach compromise because she has burned her bridges. Now is the time for a top notch negotiator, sales-person, uniter and visionary. "

" darkHillBilly has written outright lies about Barack Obama.
Barack Obama's father, Barack Obama Sr., was born and raised in a small village in Kenya, where he grew up herding goats.
Obama's parents met at the University of Hawaii. His mother was a student there, and his father had won a scholarship that allowed him to leave Kenya and pursue his dreams in America.
Barack's father eventually returned to Kenya, and Barack grew up with his mother in Hawaii, and for a few years in Indonesia. After high school, he moved to New York, where he graduated from Columbia University in 1983.
Barack moved to Chicago in 1985, where he became a community organizer with a church-based group seeking to improve living conditions in poor neighborhoods plagued with crime and high unemployment.
The group had some success, but Barack had come to realize that in order to truly improve the lives of people in that community and other communities, it would take not just a change at the local level, but a change in our laws and in our politics.
He went on to earn his law degree from Harvard in 1991, where he became the first African-American president of the Harvard Law Review. Soon after, he returned to Chicago to practice as a civil rights lawyer and teach constitutional law. Finally, his advocacy work led him to run for the Illinois State Senate, where he served for eight years. In 2004, he was elected to the U.S. Senate.
Amid the partisanship and bickering of today's public debate, Obama believes in the ability to unite people around a politics of purpose - a politics that puts solving the challenges of everyday Americans ahead of partisan calculation and political gain.
In the Illinois State Senate, this meant working with both Democrats and Republicans to help working families get ahead by creating programs like the state Earned Income Tax Credit, which in three years provided over $100 million in tax cuts to families across the state. He also pushed through an expansion of early childhood education, and after a number of inmates on death row were found innocent, Senator Obama worked with law enforcement officials to require the videotaping of interrogations and confessions in all capital cases.
In the U.S. Senate, he has focused on tackling the challenges of a globalized, 21st century world with fresh thinking and a politics that no longer settles for the lowest common denominator. His first law was passed with Republican Tom Coburn, a measure to rebuild trust in government by allowing every American to go online and see how and where every dime of their tax dollars is spent. He has also been the lead voice in championing ethics reform that would root out Jack Abramoff-style corruption in Congress.
As a member of the Veterans' Affairs Committee, Senator Obama has fought to help Illinois veterans get the disability pay they were promised, while working to prepare the VA for the return of the thousands of veterans who will need care after Iraq and Afghanistan. Recognizing the terrorist threat posed by weapons of mass destruction, he traveled to Russia with Republican Dick Lugar to begin a new generation of non-proliferation efforts designed to find and secure deadly weapons around the world. And knowing the threat we face to our economy and our security from America's addiction to oil, he's working to bring auto companies, unions, farmers, businesses and politicians of both parties together to promote the greater use of alternative fuels and higher fuel standards in our cars.
Barack Obama is a great American and he will be a great president. "

" Barack Obama fits a mold that is relatively new to the American scene: Radical Arab-American Ultra-Liberal Extremist POSING as an African (slave-descendent) American. Though he has been mislabeled as Muslim, he is undeniably of Arab descent; as evidenced by his numerous non-religious private ARAB associations. Other than for political expediency, the reasons he is publicly POSING as an African (slave-descendant) American, and concealing his sinister connections to the Arab world, of which a small portion we are currently at war, is a mystery and could be potentially devastating to the U.S.of A. If his Arab connections where with the moderate, non-radical Arab world, would he so zealously conceal them.
Why was he so adamantly against, as evidenced by his 2002 speech, the removal of Saddam Hussein from power and against freedom for the Iraqi Shiites and Kurds, even before the lies for justification were told and the bungling of the occupation came to past? If it was up to him, would Saddam Hussein still be in power? Was he satisfied with and supported Saddam paying $25,000 to the families of suicide bombers that attacked Israel; or the targeting of U.S aircraft enforcing U.N. imposed 'no-fly' zones; or Saddam threatening and invading his neighbors at every opportunity; or the corrupt 'oil for food' program, illicit funds to which Obama has indirect connections and has benefited from (see Nadhmi Auchi)? Just what would Obama say to Iran and Syria as President of the U.S.??? Just WHAT is Obama saying when he 'too loudly and too often' orates that he was never for the Iraq War II? Was he for the unfinished Iraq War I? Did he approve of Saddam's behavior during the interval between Iraq War I and Iraq War II? These and many other questions we need answers to before this MAN can become President of our beloved Country!!!
We label Iraq War II as preemptive but it was, rather, a continuation of Iraq War I.
The prevailing thought in the lead-up to Iraq War I was that Iraq could not militarily defeat the West but merely had to withstand the onslaught of two or three waves of War before the West lost its WILL to fight. Right now, we are in the middle of wave two. The Eastern War plan is to fight for five or six generations, In the meanwhile, sporadic 'cat and mouse' attacks, exceedingly high oil prices, 'wear and tear' on the U.S. war machine, and subversive political infiltration (enter 'PARROT' Barack Obama; so pretty and so able to eloquently repeat anything he's heard) would so weaken the U.S., financially, militarily and morally, that it could not and would not be able continue the fight. All of this is coming to past. If we give up the gains that we've made so far and quit the war now; will the fight be over; or will Iraq WAR III, in about five years or so, be even wider, more costly and bloodier? They will certainly be better prepared for the U.S. next time round; having gone to school on our military for six years and probably will be nuclear armed to boot.
The only way to, possibly, maybe, END this War is to negotiate a TRUCE with the Arab world, withdraw our troops and personnel from ALL Arab lands, abandon our allies (Israel, Saudi Arabia. U.A.E.) and ALL national interests in the area and then, hopefully, maybe, bygones can be bygones; none of which we are willing to do at this time. Maybe after Iraq War III??? Anything short of meeting these conditions, we might as well 'buck' up our WILL and settle in for a long, long FIGHT. Simply quitting Iraq War II, as leaving Iraq War I unfinished, will NOT do it!!!
