Great Minds and the 2008 Election

Saturday I wrote a letter to Sen. John McCain pleading with him to let Gov. Sarah Palin be who she is and go on the offensive against Sen. Barack Obama.  While I did not get a personal response from the McCain camp, it seems somebody is listening to voters like me.  Today Palin is taking on not only William Ayers but also Rev. Jeremiah Wright.  Remember that Bill Ayers said of himself, "Guilty as hell,...  free as a bird,  ...  America is great."

The United States is at war against an enemy who wants to destroy our way of life, our democracy, our freedoms, and who wants to spread Islam across the globe.  This truly is "A War Of Destiny Between Infidelity And Islam".  The United States is also in a war at home, between Conservatism and Socialism, Communism, Marxism, and the teachings of Saul Alinsky, considered to be the founder of modern community organizing in America.  Sen. Hillary Clinton and Sen. Barack Obama are both devotees of Alinsky, author of Rules for Radicals.  Hope and change to the rescue???

Obama supports radical Islam and Communism in Kenya.  He wants to raise taxes, create more socialist programs, have the government be your caretaker.  Barack Obama was a slumlord, and the Black Republicans have put out a new radio ad here.

Obama's Vice President candidate, Sen. Joe Biden, has a problem with telling the truth.  ACORN, Obama's former "community organizing" group, is in much trouble for shady voter registration tactics.  Voters coast-to-coast are receiving e-mails from the Obama campaign encouraging them to sign up to learn pre-election agitation tactics at "Camp Obama."  Hope and Change?

The United States wants John McCain while the "world" wants Barack Obama, from Bob McCarty Writes:

Respondents living in the United States favored Republican presidential nominee John McCain over Barack Obama by a narrow margin in a recently-conducted Reader’s Digest poll, according to a news release issued this morning by the Pleasantville, N.Y.-based magazine.

Meanwhile, respondents living overseas voted overwhelmingly for the Illinois Democrat in every country except the United States.  That might explain some of Obama’s “fishy” campaign contributions documented by Pam Geller in a post today at Atlas Shrugs.

It should be noted that 100-Plus Former Ambassadors Endorse McCain and Sarah Palin for president and vice president. To be announced by the McCain campaign later this week, the endorsements counter Barack Obama’s claims that McCain is inflexible when it comes to diplomacy and negotiations with other countries , Newsmax has learned.  See all 100 names here.

I'm not the only one trying to help McCain out with advice.  Carol Platt Liebau says: "John McCain confronts a choice: He can either start telling the public about the real Barack Obama, or he can lose. ... Barack Obama – the most radical presidential nominee ever. "  Do voters know...

Barack Obama has multiple ties to those responsible for the present economic crisis?:

Franklin Raines, the immediate past CEO of Fannie Mae – who has collected a $90 million golden parachute while driving Fannie into the ground – has advised Obama on housing issues.

Jim Johnson, yet another former Fannie Mae CEO, resigned from Obama’s vice presidential search team when it was revealed he had received a sweetheart home mortgage deal.

Despite serving in the Senate for only four years, Obama himself has been the second-largest recipient of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac largesse in the entire Congress, ahead even of former presidential candidate John Kerry, who’s spent two decades in the Senate?

Obama’s long-time political ally, radical group ACORN, played a key role in pressuring banks to offer loans to those who were unlikely to be able to pay them back. ACORN has taken credit for pressuring banks to accept undocumented income as a basis for offering loans, for offering loans without using credit scores, and for making 100% financed loans available to low-income people.

There is more, of course. Do voters know:

That, in apparent defiance of federal election law, the Obama campaign refuses to identify individual donors who have provided almost half the funds for his campaign, including obvious fakes like “Mr. Good Will” and “Mr. Doodad Pro”? And that 11,500 donations to his campaign – totaling almost $34 million – may have come from overseas? Or that two Palestinians living in a Hamas-controlled refugee camp spent $31,300 in Obama’s online store? Who are all these people, and why won’t the Obama campaign obey the law and identify them? Continued...

The RNC is demanding an investigation of Obama's campain contributions.

Burt Prelutsky writes:

For openers, I’d tell him to quit treating Obama like an equal. When he keeps calling you “John,” you don’t keep calling him “Senator Obama.”  ...   Obama’s background as a community organizer ...  everybody knows, or certainly should know, that’s code for a left-wing activist.

There was no reason for McCain to avoid tying Obama to Bill Ayers, Tony Rezko, the current economic crisis and ACORN, just as there was no good reason to neglect pinning the earmark tail on this particular donkey; especially when Obama has rapidly become one of Washington’s leading pork merchants. Furthermore, when debating their opposing views on taxes, why didn’t McCain mention the fact that Obama has signed on in support of the U.N.’s multi-billion dollar plan to erase global poverty?  [snip]

I’d love to know what positions Jesse Jackson, Charles Schumer, Richard Durbin, Barney Frank, Barbara Boxer, George Soros and Charles Rangel, would hold in an Obama administration. Of course, I’m assuming that Bill Clinton would be the official food taster.

Salena Zito also writes to McCain, saying BE YOURSELF.  (sigh)

Time to shed the over-handling and carefulness and go at it.   [snip]

Tactically, you should be talking about your plans for America to escape its psychological mess and its very real economic and foreign policy morasses. And be upbeat. No more whining. Whining only gets in the way of your message about how you will move the country forward and demonstrate leadership.

McCain is listening.  Today from The Page:

“Who is the real Senator Obama?” the Arizona Senator will ask Monday afternoon in Albuquerque.

“I don’t need lessons about telling the truth to American people. And were I ever to need any improvement in that regard, I probably wouldn’t seek advice from a Chicago politician.”

“My opponent’s touchiness every time he is questioned about his record should make us only more concerned… Where other candidates have to explain themselves and their records, Senator Obama seems to think he is above all that.”

Essential reading:  Read the full, tough speech– click here.

Obama seems to be changing what he has said in the past, the media continues to cover up for Obama, yet we will continue to fight.  See here, here, here, here, here.

When you think of great minds, do you think of Barack Obama?  Do you consider Saul Alinsky a great mind?  How about Rev. Jeremiah Wright?   Maybe Bill Ayers?  Perhaps Joe Biden?  Any member of the NO USA crowd?   NO?  What about John Mccain?  .... Sarah Palin???    The great minds in this election may turn out to be the informed voters.  Exercise your personal responsibility and inform your neigbors, friends, relatives on what you know about the candidates.

The next Presidential Debate tomorrow, Tuesday, October 7, 2008, could be a defining moment in this election.  It's up to McCain now to do his part.  Voters like you, and like me, will continue to do our part.  Say a prayer my friends.

"Who is the real Senator Obama?”

It is about time that McCain started asking that question. He should have done it long ago, but hopefully, it is not too late!

Great post as usual! :-)

Debbie,

Once again you have nailed the point. I was so disappointed that Saracuda did not call Joe Biden a liar right there and then. My god, how many lies can one utter in a 90 minute debate.

If Biden and Palin each had the exact amount of time and the moderator spoke for only 5 minutes of the 90, then Biden lied about once every three minutes. Ifill did nothing of course and the general audience watching did not know there were lies and would never research it to find out.

The media just covers up for that Gaffe-Machine day in and day out.

It is astounding how Oblahblah gets away with so much. Its time to take the gloves off and let that wind bag empty suit cry all he wants.

all this stuff about ACORN and watching their proxies work on campus kinda make me think the election may have tons of voter fraud chicanery in it to win it for the American Unexceptionalist Party.
