Great job Jim!
Introduction: The LA Times is holding a video that shows Barack Obama celebrating with a group of Palestinians who are openly hostile towards Israel. Barack Obama even gives a toast to a former PLO operative at this celebration. If the American public saw this side of Barack Obama he would never be elected president.
But, the media refuses to release this video.LA Times writer Peter Wallsten wrote about Barack Obama’s close association with former Palestinian operative Rashid Khalidi back in April.
Wallsten discussed a dinner held back in 2003 in honor of Khalidi, a critic of Israel and advocate for Palestinian rights.
Barack Obama has denied his close association with Khalidi, too.According to Wallsten the evening not surprisingly turned into a classic Jew-bash:
“During the dinner a young Palestinian American recited a poem accusing the Israeli government of terrorism in its treatment of Palestinians and sharply criticizing U.S. support of Israel. If Palestinians cannot secure their own land, she said, “then you will never see a day of peace.”One speaker likened “Zionist settlers on the West Bank” to Osama bin Laden, saying both had been “blinded by ideology.”Barack Obama also praised the former PLO operative during the event.
And, Obama confessed that his family often shared dinner with the Khalidis

Recently, I received this e-mail from Los Angeles Times reporter Peter Wallsten, who covers the Obama campaign for the paper, regarding a column I wrote about Barack Hussein Obama:

I’m looking into Obama’s ties to the Nation of Islam and I’m interested in what you’ve reported already. Is there any chance you’d be willing to take a few minutes to chat on the phone with me?

Can you ever expect the L.A. SLIMES to ver print the truth its just another liberal left-wing rag no worth reading anymore=:)
I’m sure if they had video of Sarah Palin being blessed by a witch doctor they would withhold that as well.
As I’ve said before, these sorts of desperate attempts at character assassination aren’t working. The country is hurting too much at the moment for personal attacks to seem anything but childish. Finding proof that Obama’s cousin’s mother’s teacher’s friend once said something anti-American isn’t going to cut it. Obama’s campaign has been run too well; October’s nearly over, and there hasn’t been a surprise.
The right needs to choose: If you really want McCain, you need to start focusing on the positive qualities (if any) he can bring to the country. If you realize that he probably can’t win at this point (as nearly every poll seems to indicate), you need to start focusing on the future direction of the republican party. You also might urge those higher up in the party to sink money into some of the more important state races (so you don’t lose both the presidency and any hope of a legislative check).
I posted this before, but here’s a link to an R.V. post from this day in 2004: http://rightvoices.com/2004/10/26/why-is-he-smiling/
And here’s a link to the same polling site today: http://www.realclearpolitics.com/polls/
I know — anything can happen, right? Still, the RP has limited cash and a lot of battles to fight. Should they sink this money into the (it would appear) failed McCain/Palin campaign or into the still vital struggles for legislative power??
Of course, I don’t expect anyone to take this advice; it’s too much fun to mock Obama’s name, etc., right? You do have to ask yourself, though, if what you’re doing amounts to much more than fiddling while your party burns.
:-&
Gee, another indicator of Obama’s character. What a total unsurprise, it’s not a good one.
God, Israel will be in so much trouble if that anti-semite pinhead takes office.
And for the life of me, I can’t figure out why SO many Americans Jews are such rabid Obama fans. After ww2 some crackpots said that Jews brought the hoalcast upon themselves. It was a stupid anti-Jew remark at that time. But now if America’s Jews help vote this Anti-Jew scumbag Obama into the White House, if this terrible nightmare comes to pass, and Obama helps the Islamic extremist nations of the middle east try to destroy Israel, then it can be rationally said “American Jews brought on Israel’s destruction”.
The book of Revelation makes it clear that Israels enemies will try to destroy the nation, Why would this countries Jews try to help bring this on?

AKD another sample of Liberals stupidity, gotta send the same message three time. Dumb as tree stumps one and all.
Hey, go easy on me. It didn’t show up the first couple times.
The question still stands: Does the money stay on the McCain ship just in case it ain’t sunk? Or do you pump it into the Congressional races where it might do more good?
Libbie, that was my fault..it sat in the spam queue for whatever reason, and I didn’t check it for a couple of hours..AKD tends to repeat himself, but not like that
McCain is on public funds and I do not believe he can turn it over..The Republicans have more money than dems for the congressional races..
It the Senate races that bother me. I would hate to see the Democrats with over 60 seats.
I hope all you Republicans realize how fortunate you are that the Republican’s didn’t use the “Nuclear”or “Constitutional”option and change Senate rules to disallow a Filibuster.
If the Republican’s had changed the Senate rules (as so many here said they should) the Democrats would now be free to lay waste to our County.
O.K. Pam
But still does’nt change the fact that Libbys are as dumb as tree stumps now does it?
:d=)):)=)):):d=))
If the video really exists, then why would the media allow it to be hidden, but will drag McCain and Palin through mud? Is it true that terrorists fund American media? I was sent to the following 4-part interview with a former member of Islam, concerning Obama. It’s horrifying that if even a fraction of what his being said in these videos is true, that Obama is even a Senator, and unthinkable that he may be our president.
It’s also disturbing that Americans who support Obama don’t care to find out the truth. They are either voting blindly, or they willingly support what he stands for. Abortion, socialism, hatred of Jews, hatred of Whites (even though he is also White and Black but plays the race card on his Black side), deceptive campaigning, teaching sex to kindergardeners, etc.

AKD, just out of curiosity, are you voting in support of what he stands for, or do you vote for Party loyalty? Other?
I favor his tax plan and his geopolitical strategy. Plus, I’m pro-choice. Also, most of the crap you’ve posted above has been debunked.
Which tax plan? It changed, or hadn’t you taken the time to learn that? And what has been debunked? Who debunked it?
During the debates, Osama kept repeating that his plan would help the middle class. Then he stated several times it wouldn’t raise their taxes at all. So NOT raising your income taxes is helping you?
)
What’s been debunked? Let’s see… that he supports sex ed for kindergartners: “Nobody’s suggesting that kindergartners are going to be getting information about sex in the way that we think about it,” said Obama in 2004, according to a Daily Herald clip provided by the Obama campaign. “If they ask a teacher ‘where do babies come from,’ providing information that it’s not a stork is probably not an unhealthy thing. Although again, that’s going to be determined on a case by case basis by local communities and local school boards.’”
I guess that since there’s absolutely no evidence that he hates Jews or whites, it doesn’t really have to be debunked.
As for his tax plan changing: http://marcambinder.theatlantic.com/archives/2008/10/stunning_obama_changes_tax_pla.php
If, like so many on the right, you still don’t understand Obama’s tax plan: http://www.usnews.com/blogs/john-farrell/2008/10/29/the-facts-about-barack-obamas-and-john-mccains-tax-plans–no-socialism-here.html
As for the socialism charge…please.

Obama: Did We Say $250K? More Like $150K..Stunning! Obama Changes Tax Plan Seven Days Out *
We do understand Obama’s socialistic tax plan..
Um, did you actually read the article that you linked to? Look again at the asterisk…
The Right’s inability to distinguish between any criticism of Israel and Anti-Semitism would be mind-blowing if it wasn’t so obviously a political ploy. Thankfully, American jews aren’t actually fooled (which is why they’re overwhelmingly supporting Obama).
Like all good Socialist/Marxists, Obama hates EVERYTHING about traditional America…
Incidentally, since polling became a modern science (in 1948), no candidate has ever come back from as large a deficit as McCain faces this late in the game. It looks like the right might not get Amnesty! Amnesty! after all.
(
Edited by Pam:
Again, take a look at other posts:
Jimmy Carter led Ronald Reagan with eight days left in the race in 1980 outside the margin of error.
AKD, incidentally, since America started with presidents (in 1776), no candidate has ever gotten away with such large cheating as Obama has in this game. It looks like the left might get away with their Treason! Treason! after all.
AKD you keep shooting from the hip and missing…:)>-
Note: I didn’t say that no one has ever come back from a deficit in the polls this late in the game; I said that no one has come back from the deficit that McCain now faces. The election is in less than a week. Obama’s (average) lead according to RCP is 6.2. You can try to cherry-pick polls that make it look closer, but you could also pick one of the many polls that have Obama leading between 8 and 15. The situation in the Battleground states isn’t even this close, which is ultimately more important.
There was only one television debate between Carter and Reagan, and it took place a week before polling day. Reagan emerged the clear victor — running as the candidate of change — and assuaged the doubts of many voters that he was up to the job of president. Reagan presented a clear plan; he didn’t stand up and say that Carter hates America and pals around with terrorists. Consequently, people were happy about voting FOR Reagan and not just voting AGAINST Carter.
C’mon, let’s start a rousing chant of Amnesty! Amnesty! Amnesty!

How could my fellow Americans be so foolish to have elected Osama Obama a racist Black Nationalist to be the President of the USA! Americans here in SE Asia cannot understand why Americans are supporting Osama Obama! I f Israel falls then America and Europe will become Islamic by 2100! God Bless America hccc1000@yahoo.com

YOU REALLY THINK SO?! The man can get away with murder and the Obamanauts would still see him as the second coming! During the next election I engaged many such kool-aid drinkers… It was more an endeavour of curiosity, I wanted to understand this nationwide, no – WORLDWIDE – Obsession!
I’ll be honest: I expected us to disagree but never would I have expected such passion to be shown by those absolutely ignorant to the man’s policies, past & plans for the future. Less than a handful were able to cite one specifc plan or policy, fewer than that knew of the man’s past – as in how long he’s been a senator, what his record was etc… I expected a certain degree of holes but I was shocked that people who were preaching about the man as if he was the actual Messiah knew so little…

Have no fear, Obama’s silver tongue will surely pacify them!

The so-called Settlers don’t even make up 1% of 1% of 1% of 1% of 1% of the Arab population. While Arabs blame them for everything from their rampant overpopulation, illiteracy and outright hopelessness Israel has been able to ABSOLUTELY THRIVE while it’s democracy is made up of 20% ARABS. Yes, there are over A MILLION Israeli Arabs living in Israel. They vote, sit in parliament, one sat on Supreme Court, they are the most literate, healthiest, longest lived Arabs in the MidEast. They are also the only Arabs to vote in a real democracy with regular elections, run for seats in parliament (Knesset) and have freedom of sexuality, religion (Israel is made up of Jews, Christians, Muslims, Buddhists, Bahais and Hindus!), speech, assembly and self-determination! Their passports and ID cards are identical to Jewish citizens which totally flies in the face of claims of ‘Apartheid’ (if this is Apartheid I know a few hundred million Arabs in the MidEast that would trade ths “Apartheid” for their current miserable conditions.
As for comparison to Osama Bin Laden… That comparison is so devoid of fact or logic that it’s barely worth responding to. Bin Laden has launched countless attacks on INNOCENT populations that have never wronged him. The “Settlers”, although sometimes going overboard are fighting an enemy that has MOST CERTAINLY wronged them. They are constantly the target of attacks.
Bin Laden was sheltered by Afghanistan and now (Arguably) by Pakistan.
The Settlers on the other hand, are routinely arrested, charged & held by Israeli authorities.
Bin Laden had no reason to be in Afghanistan, no precedent made it “his”, he was abusing Afghanistan and brought devastation upon its people!
The Settlers have every right to the land they inhabit as they payed for it and it is MOST DEFINITELY NOT THE PROPERTY OF SO-CALLED Palestinians”! The ENTIRE area of the British Province of Palestine (has never been an Arab country, not in the history of planet Earth) including Judea and Samaria & Gaza were promised to the Jews in the Balfour Declaration which was ratified into law by the League of Nations. In 1918-22 Brits broke the declaration & gave OVER 70% OF THE LAND TO THE HASHEMITES. Then, in 1948 they took the remaining 30% of land and decided to split it for YET ANOTHER ARAB COUNTRY (after 99% the MidEast was already given to ARabs with new countries like Syria, Lebanon, Jordan, Iraq, Saudi Arabia, Yemen and more being created with NO HISTORICAL PRECEDENT!). They offered the Arabs Judea & Samaria, lands lived on by Jews for thousands of years. The Arabs rejected the deal, the Jews accepted it. A day after Israel declared independence ALL ISRAEL’S ARAB NEIGHBOURS ATTACKED IN UNISON. After the ’48 war, Egypt occupied Gaza, Jordan occupied Judea/Samaria…
THE POINT: These areas we NEVER EVER taken from any Arab Land (a legal prerequisite for “occupation” requires a nation to take land that belongs to t its rightful & legal owner… This “was no mans land” after the Arabs rejected it, then it was held by Egypt/Jordan (also not legal or recognized rulers!))
Comparing Jewish settlers in their homeland to the scurge that is Al Qaeda (Everywhere they go there is destruction, ruin and death of innocents!) is like comparing a sometimes over-aggressive puppy to the SS!
