Obama's fishy associations: Do we really know who Barack Obama is? »

Posted By Wolfie2007 8 months, 3 weeks ago in News

Who is Barack Obama? Is he the thoughtful, moderate guy he's appeared to be in the first two presidential debates? Or is he a closet radical? The election is less than a month away, and we still don't know.

    FTA
    Both Sen. Obama and Mr. Ayers spoke at a testimonial dinner for Rashid Khalidi, a former member of the Palestine Liberation Organization and a founder of the rabidly anti-Israel Arab American Action Network, when Mr. Khalidi left the University of Chicago for Columbia University. Sen. Obama lectured part time at the University of Chicago law school from 1993 until his election to the U.S. Senate in 2004.

    It's time to move on from Ayers, It's already been proven he lied about their relationship.

    Now we have Rashid Khalidi a former member of the PLO he is another buddy of Obama's I wish someone would ask Barry about him. Also, is Khalidi the one who paid Barry's tuition at Harvard Law School? Someone did because we know that Barry's grades were too low at Columbia to get a scholarship and too low for even an affirmative action placement. Barry didn't have the dough so who paid the tuition?

    "Khalidi and Obama lived in nearby faculty residential zones and the two families dined together a number of times," a source on the University of Chicago faculty told Worldnet Daily. "The Obamas even babysat the Khalidi children."

    We can't spend too much time on Khalildi either because Obama has lots of other smelly, fishy friends to talk about.

    FTA-In "Dreams From My Father," Mr. Obama writes fondly of "Frank," a mentor while he was growing up in Hawaii. "Frank" was Frank Marshall Davis, a member of the Communist Party USA, and who was on the FBI's list of subversives.
    I am just guessing but I'd vote he is a closet radical?
    The communist party usa has a nifty spin on things, while they do NOT endorse a candidate they sure give favorable press to one of them.

    The media is ALL OVER Palin who is running for the VP spot but, when it comes to Obama who is running for the President spot the media might casually or hardly even mention his name along with his crooked friends and associates and the crooked things they have done that were actually against the law.

    No one really knows who Obama is because he wants it like that so we don't find out just how bad and crooked he is.

    On Friday, McCain's campaign released a memo saying that Obama's affiliations with ACORN "raise serious questions about his judgment and ability to lead this nation." We know, we know ... this is a racist statement because Republicans are referring to Obama's days as community organizer. The McCain campaign has also posted a video which points to the connections between ACORN and the current mortgage crisis – the fact that ACORN, with the blessing of our own government, bullied banks into giving loans to people who they know could not pay for them. Question ... where was all of this information in the last debate? Why has John McCain waited until now to make these connections?

    Naturally, the Obama campaign responds with my favorite line ... these attacks from the McCain campaign attempt to "'turn the page from the issues that matter to American families." So there you go. The people don't want to talk about this, they want to talk about the economy! Hey, Barack, how about explaining the fact that an organization you worked for and have hired to get out the vote for your campaign is partly responsible for the current economy, thanks to the mortgage meltdown. Here's a picture of Our Savior at an ACORN meeting!

    http://www.clevelandleader.com/node/7203

    Look at the picture and remember that some Obama mouthpieces say that he wasn't involved with ACORN. Yeah ... we're buying that.

    Oh and the other response from Democrats ... the only reason the McCain campaign is hitting on ACORN is because McCain and Republicans are "hostile to the group's political agenda." Rep. Jesse Jackson Jr. says, "They're scared of too many poor people preparing to vote this year." So now the McCain campaign is engaged in class warfare and the only reason they are attacking ACORN is because they don't want poor people to vote. That is the logic of a Democrat.

    Wrong-Barack Obama is a Patriot who will fix the economic woes facing America. He has been on the campaign trail with leadership on the issues and a step ahead of his rivals. Tax Breaks for Middle America, Business credits, Foreclosues 3 Month Holiday, 401k IRA 10k without penalties. These are solutions to help us all

    Obama today said that people should get out of debt and save more. Then he comes up with a plan where people can take up to $10K from their 401K's early without a penalty. That sounds more like spending than saving. He forgot to tell them that the money from the 401 will be taxed. Ten thousand dollars can land you in a higher tax bracket,too. Beware!

    Americans have been blinded by the liberal media's deliberate avoidance of Obama's previous associations. My parent's always taught me "You are who you associate with" A life long lesson that I continue to teach my children... We have sold ourselves down the river of socialism by avoiding and overlooking this man's past. Our freedoms and way of life will no longer matter. Mark my words, if Obama wins, this country is doomed. Our civil liberties will Obiliterated, we will be subject to the left wing liberals who what to disarm us, tie our hands and make us subservient to their control.

    I pray that there will be an awakening in the weeks to come.
    While none is perfect, we can not ignore the writings of Obama. Read his book! read of his travels! his associations! Then tell me "Oh, he's a true blue American" Bull Crap. No man is perfect, all have sinned, but... give me a break. WAKE UP AMERICA BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE. Oh by the way.. talk to a Canadian about their lovely healthcare system.. try waiting 6 months for a CT scan because you have a brain tumor... think about that when Obama Osama H. Barak signs in his healthcare reforms.
    God Bless US ALL! LaQuintaDoc

ENTITLEMENT CITY HERE I COME. Thanks in advance to all you Obama supporters. I already get a food card (no embarrassing food stamps). I also get cash monthly. Wow, now i will even get free medical and Obama will be paying my mortgage. Thanks, ka-ching..ka-ching. I can't wait to see what else I will get with an Obama presidency. I am sure he won't raise your taxes...After all he promised...He does keep his promises,,right???

    It makes no difference whether Obama and Odinga are related. What does make a difference is that Obama campaigned for Odinga, while insulting the government of Kenya. He was on a fact finding mission from the United States paid for with our tax money. Talk about abuse of power. There are videos, real videos of Obama in Kenya. After Odinga lost, he encouraged people to protest in not such a friendly way. A senator from the United States campaigning for Odinga on our hard earned dollar.

      Wolfie, I had a French teacher a long time ago who, when the class had finally driven her to distraction through repeated...and repeated...and repeated NONSENSE would scream,

      "CA SOUFFIT!!!!"

      ...which means, for those whose French is rusty,
      "ENOUGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

      Get my drift?

      We understand that you and others think Obama is:

      A Muslim
      A terrorist
      A pinko-socialist-commie-liberal
      Satan
      All of the above, even as you keep raising the faux-question, "Who IS Obama, really?"

      So (and I repeat):

      CA SOUFFIT!

      Enough? A person who is going to be President of the United States deserves to be investigated. Oh yea he was vetted, apparently not good enough. The American people have the right to investigate, ask questions and have their questions answered. Oh yea, he lives in my neighborhood is not an answer. We are not looking for someone to be poster boy for Acorn, we are looking to fill the highest position in our country.

        It has nothing to do with the boogey man. People investigate baby sitters for their kids. There are background checks on hospital workers and bus drivers. They are done to protect people. There is nothing wrong with investigating someone who is going to lead our country. Investigations are being done, by the people, on both sides. The media has an obligation to not be biased. That is their job. Things that are wrong are wrong whether you are a republican or a democrat. In the end we are all just Americans, no hyphens. If it was wrong for Palin to try to have her ex brother-in-law fired, then why is it right for Obama to travel to Kenya, on your hard earned money, to campaign for a radical and try to influence another country, which by the way is one of our allies. Both are wrong.

          My point, myquerty, is that Wolfie (and others who share his...opinion) keep posting stories that make the same "points" about Obama--that spill and spread the same rumors, again and again and again and again and again and again...

          ...and again.

          Those who believe them do and will. Those who don't, don't and won't. Few on either side are suddenly going to "see the light" and change their opinion about whom to vote for. So these posts are a way of indulging one's hate, fear and prejudice in public and getting corroboration of same. They're masturbatory. (And believe me, I have nothing against masturbation, appropriately performed.)

          So, for those of us who contribute to Propeller daily, and have already read tons of Woolfie's stuff:

          CA SOUFFIT!

              To say otherwise is KKK slander.
