Uh, what?

I seem to recall Kissinger dropping off the 9/11 commission, for instance, rather than disclose the clients list for Kissinger & Associates…

We have a very influential pro-Israel lobby here in Australia, but there is no way in hell that this sort of bias would be permitted to go to air. That said, one our most famous exports to the US, Rupert Murdoch, owns Fox and it is hardly surprising that this despicable attempt to degrade Obama continues unabated.

I’m glad I’m here and not there.

That first video is ridiculous. “Obama’s father is part Arabic” – really, what is he, a taa marbuuta? Seriously.

Good point. I wrote below what she basically said in full (which the video above does not fairly show I just realized):

Question: “I gotta ask you a question. I do not believe in… I can’t trust him…. I read about him, and he’s not, he’s not, eh… He’s an Arab… He’s not… no?”

McCain: “No, maam. No maam. He’s a decent family man, citizen, that I just have disagreements with on fundamental issues and that’s what this campaign is all about.”

My friend convinced me that it is hard enough to cross a supporter, especially a room of them booing you.

I agree with you that it was likely staged, or atleast they knew McCain could use this to appeal to the middle. It is strikingly at odds with what Palin is saying, and what they are suggesting in the Ayers ads, really. So it could seem they are doing what most presidential candidates do, try to look presidential when their underlings do the dirty work.

So far, Obama’s campaign seems to me at least to running a much cleaner campaign. Then again, who know what they had planned in case he was down far in the polls this close to election day.

Not much evidence for much of it that I can find. “Proof” on a blog is usually a link to another blog.

The real problems with the chap I think are:

a) He is inexperienced.

b) He has made very bad judgements in those he has backed, like the reverend whatsit and Odinga, simply because of superficial allegiances of being black or Luo origin.

c) Mainly, he is a lefty. I suspect he will pour vast sums into ill thought out and innefective schemes to improve the lots of blacks. The last thing any group needs is indiscriminate state handouts, it destroys incentives.

On the other side, while McCain seems ok, he is 72 and Palin would be VP. Enough said. That repulsive woman should be shot.

Was that really a hate crime? Chicago can be a really nasty place; both discriminate and lavish in social order.

So this is saying: “You may be my enemy, but you aren’t my friend?”

Obama, whether Muslim or African-American is “from Illinois, via Chicago Political system.”

Do you remember the riots in Detroit that destroyed the city…? Look again at background scenes from RoboCop in the burned out city. Those are the result of liberal governance of the time. The “liberal” mayor of Detroit did nothing to insure the safety and indemnity of the city dwellers back then. On the other hand…

Those same riot organizers then went across the lake to Chicago and his honor the mayor Richard Daley, Sr met them at the border and drew a line. He defined conservative political machine for the next century in Chicago. Re: Daley’s son is now the mayor, and indefeatable.

In short that system that faced down riotous anarchists puts each “sect” in its own neighborhood. It draws lines for each Irish, Polish, Swedish, Muslim, Hindi… and so on. This segregation is the dynamic behind Obama’s group. Divide, segregate and conquer is a better motto for Obama.

Now if Obama’s sentiment is in the ball court of the Muslim, well it might have more to do with Chicago’s aspect of separatist, anti-rugged individualism that is contrary to affirmative action USA.

For example: You see, Texans do not like New Yorkers as much as The New York Yankees do not like the Boston Red Sox…

Is that a confusing analogy? Well, how about this one: as it is with Zionists it is with Palestinians. The dislikes run in segregationist lines… no?

Hey, Texans and Zionists even try building walls to define isolationist thinking.

I truly think at this point in the campaigns that the voices you are hearing in those Town Meetings are real voices of people who normally stay quiet, and pay their taxes.

I also know that some high-roller somewhere told McCain he could run for president this time… but he couldn’t win. And I truly think that same high-roller expected Hillary to have been the Democrats’ candidate.

So, in context of larger arena as you have here: “This is frighteningly close to the types of hysteria that has caused serious violence and destabilization in other parts of the world…
… I conclude that yes this current of people in the United States is a melting pot of the whole world, and all that hysteria travels with those who come here.

I think Obama will follow segregation rules of organization and attempt to control Muslims and all others in Business as usual, and will not as you say: This may sound like a mirror image of their alarmism, except that the logical end of my alarmism is tolerance and rational discourse.

Rather we will continue to see: “..The logical end of their’s is a exclusivist society with no tolerance for difference.”

Good stuff for debate, eh? Thanks
