unless you want the country to face a crisis within the first 6 months. I kid you not, Joe Biden is not doing Barack any favors but Republicans love him. Check this link for the story.

Spread WHAT around?
Ok, here’s a video showing Obama saying what I’ve been saying that he’s been saying all along. If these aren’t the words of a Socialist then I don’t know what Socialism means.
I’m waiting for Daryl to factcheck this one. đ

I agree with Hillary
Hillary is going around saying “jobs, baby, jobs” in response to the Republican chant, “drill, baby, drill”. I couldn’t agree with her more, and the best way to get those jobs going is to drill, baby, drill.

New Presidential Candidate
I saw this on Tioga George’s blog and thought it was spot on.

Democrat’s fault?
Lots of pundits are suggesting this crash of the market is because people think if Obama wins and then has a Democratic House and Senate they will raise taxes causing a much worse recession and probably depression.
I have no idea if that’s true but it certainly makes sense to me.

Sounds like a joke, but no
What do Osama bin Laden and Barack Obama have in common?
They were both friends of people who bombed the Pentagon.
Sad, but true.

William who?
William Ayers and Bernadette Dohrn are a couple of acquaintances of Barack Obama. Obama says they just happen to live in the same neighborhood. Here’s an article by Dick Morris that might help with the truth.
THE OBAMA-AYERS CONNECTION
By DICK MORRIS
Published on TheHill.com on October 7, 2008
In the best tradition of Bill Clintonâs famous declaration that the answer to the question of whether or not he was having an affair with Monica depended on âwhat the definition of âisâ is,â Barack Obama was clearly splitting hairs and concealing the truth when he said that William Ayers was âjust a guy who lives in my neighborhood.â
The records of the administration of the Chicago Annenberg Challenge (CAC), released last week by the University of Illinois, show that the Ayers-Obama connection was, in fact, an intimate collaboration and that it led to the only executive or administrative experience in Obamaâs life.
After Walter Annenbergâs foundation offered several hundred million dollars to American public schools in the mid-â90s, William Ayers applied for $50 million for Chicago. The purpose of his application was to secure funds to âraise political consciousnessâ in Chicagoâs public schools. After he won the grant, Ayersâs group chose Barack Obama to distribute the money. Between 1995 and 1999, Obama distributed the $50 million and raised another $60 million from other civic groups to augment it. In doing so, he was following Ayersâs admonition to grant the funds to âexternalâ organizations, like American Community Organizations for Reform
Now (ACORN) to pair with schools and conduct programs to radicalize the students and politicize them.
Can McCain Stop Obama? Reading, math and science achievement tests counted for little in the CAC grants, but the schoolâs success in preaching a radical political agenda determined how much money they got.Barack Obama should have run screaming at the sight of William Ayers and his wife, Bernadette Dohrn. Ayers has admitted bombing the U.S. Capitol building and the Pentagon, and his wife was sent to prison for failing to cooperate in solving the robbery of a Brinkâs armored car in which two police officers were killed. Far from remorse, Ayers told The New York Times in September 2001 that he âwished he could have done more.â
Ayers only avoided conviction when the evidence against him turned out to be contained in illegally obtained wiretaps by the FBI. He was, in fact, guilty as sin.
That Obama should ally himself with Ayers is almost beyond understanding. The former terrorist had not repented of his views and the education grants he got were expressly designed to further them.
So letâs sum up Obamaâs Chicago connections. His chief financial supporter was Tony Rezko, now on his way to federal prison. His spiritual adviser and mentor was the Rev. Jeremiah Wright, of âGod damn Americaâ fame. And the guy who got him his only administrative job and put him in charge of doling out $50 million is William Ayers, a terrorist who was a domestic Osama bin Laden in his youth.
Even apart from the details of the Obama/Ayers connection, two key points emerge:
a) Obama lied and misled the American people in his description of his relationship with Ayers as casual and armâs-length; and
b) Obama was consciously guided by Ayersâs radical philosophy, rooted in the teachings of leftist Saul Alinksy, in his distribution of CAC grant funds.
Since Obama is asking us to let him direct education spending by the federal government and wants us to trust his veracity, these are difficulties he will have to explain in order to get the votes to win.
Now that Obama is comfortably ahead in the polls, attention will understandably shift to him. We will want to know what kind of president he would make. The fact that, within the past 10 years, he participated in a radical program of political education conceptualized by an admitted radical terrorist offers no reassurance.
Why did Obama put up with Ayers? Because he got a big job and $50 million of patronage to distribute to his friends and supporters in Chicago. Why did he hang out with Jeremiah Wright? Because he was new in town, having grown up in Hawaii and Indonesia and having been educated at Columbia and Harvard, and needed all the local introductions he could get to jump-start his political career. Why was he so close to Rezko?
Because he funded Obamaâs campaigns and helped him buy a house for $300,000 less than he otherwise would have had to pay.
Not a good recommendation for a president.
