Revolution By Any Means Necessary: Barack Obama
DUBIOUS DONATIONS - New York PostCandidate Obama, who lied about public financing, often boasts that his millions in contributions are from "small contributors." Fact is that many of these "small contributors" have multiple identities. Fortress Obama continues to copy the tactics of Leni Riefenstahl and Albert Speer, and the MSM follows in lockstep.
LA Times Refuses to Release Tape of Obama Praising Controversial Activist - FOXNews.com Elections
LA Times Refuses to Release Tape of Obama Praising Controversial Activist - FOXNews.com ElectionsThis should be required reading for American voters, especially those on U.S. campuses. Of course, "academic freedom" does not apply in many of them which, like Columbia University, are afraid to expose their students to anything that is not left, left-liberal, ultra-left-liberal, Marxist, Socialist, or anti-U.S. Hence, Obama's alma-mater, Columbia University invites fascists on the left into its sanctums but won't permit ROTC to put one foot on campus. So much for "academic freedom."

My Favorite Sarah Palin Stump Speech Line
Obama’s campaign rhetoric is hyperbolic and often meaningless. “Change You Can Believe In” becomes “Change We Need” because bringing up the concept of “believe” in the former slogan calls his credibility into question. That’s not a good thing when Obama’s credibility IS in question. So we excise the issue in “Change We Need.”
Another great weakness of the Obama lexicon is when Obama tells the hypnotized ignorati that “I will fight for you.” Or “I will fight for America.” He uses the term “fight” so often that it becomes a dull and cheap word rather than an enlivening, engaged word.
Now I love many things about Sarah Palin but I get a chill running down my leg every time I hear her utter my favorite Sarah Palin stump speech line. Palin’s utterly clear perception of the meaning of the word “fight” is evident in that line and at every time she utters it:
“There is only one man in this presidential race who has really fought for America.”
Obama can talk the talk all he wants to but John McCain’s the only guy who can walk the walk. John McCain. Now and forever!
Obama Loves ACORN and ACORN Loves Voter Fraud
Has Massive Voter Fraud Become Politically Correct?
One strong indication of the impending rot of our Republic is that the Justice Department is turning a blind eye to massive voter fraud sanctioned by Barack Obama and his supporters. If you think I’m kidding, just try to remember the name of the current attorney general. I mean, hell, if he/she were doing anything, you’d know his name, wouldn’t you? It’s Michael Mukasey—if you don’t know. And it is a “he.” I had to look it up. I remembered every attorney general going back to A. Mitchell Palmer but the current one may be little more than a projection on a screen, given a name.
It’s likely that Barack Obama is thinking of giving a future A.G. job as a sop to Hillary Clinton, indicating a too late pro-woman change of heart. It’s likely he’ll need Hillary to get both legitimacy and expertise. I mean, would the high-profile senator from New York take a job at DHHS? No. I mean...after the tee-shirt beating Obama and his people gave her, Hillary deserves something important, doesnt' she?
Anyway, back at the ranch, Obama the lawyer has dispatched other teams of lawyers to badger Mukasey’s office about ACORN and accusing them also of consorting with McCain’s people. Wouldn’t you think McCain’s people had an interest in deterring voter fraud? It’s b.s.—a complete smokescreen—designed to prevent Justice from looking into the massive Obama voting fraud organization most evident in the activities of groups like ACORN. ACORN is the left- wing “community organization” which launched ballot stuffing and fake voter registration initiatives in about 30 states.
In Ohio, Secretary of State Jennifer Brunner is brazen enough to defy Congress’s election laws. She refuses to verify 200,000 suspect registrations and to screen them for address, felony convictions, and so on. This is just a single example. Think of similar goings-on in many other states.
So how then does Obama get away with this? One reason, according to a recent article in the Wall Street Journal, theorizes it’s because many Justice Department attorneys are Obama supporters and contributors. The Journal mentions those lawyers by name and lists their contributions to the Obama campaign. The editorial is called “Justice and Vote Fraud” and appears in the Oct 27 edition of the paper.
Another reason is that Lawyer Obama has enlisted the aid of Civil Rights organizations to tie up the Justice Department in “amicus” style lawsuits with the aim of protecting against “voter intimidation.” You’d think that meant sweating white sheriff’s men standing around the voting booth with shotguns and police dogs. What it really means is that, unless the government pays for transporting Obama supporters to the polls in stretch limos, the Justice Department will be investigated for a range of infractions not to include phony registrations.
The U.S. needs to prosecute voter fraud, first and foremost. Obama needs to condemn voter fraud and distance himself (in more than words) from organizations like ACORN.

Is Obama Driving the Stock Market Down
Well, no. Not all by himself anyway. Obama had help from Senate pals Chris Dodd and Barney Frank and his cronies who worked for Freddie and Fanny. The mortgage debt crisis is at the bottom of it all. That can’t be said often enough, to my way of thinking. Because maybe saying it over and over will get someone to do something, to stop dreaming of a utopian cornucopia where everyone has a smart phone, a house in the country, an apartment in the city, an SUV and a Prius, and a house at the shore. And if you don’t have the money, Obama’s pals will make sure someone lends it to you.
But Obama’s “spread the wealth” comments, coupled with his planned increase of capital gains tax is not making it easy for the market to rebound. Investors who made money in the stock market over the past decade, and that includes the “little guy” with a 401K or similar pension plan, continue to sell off. The panic is not likely to abate soon as the government is heavily involved now in propping things up artificially. Obama’s sure to make a bad situation worse, and the sell-off is the result, even though Howard Dean appeared on CNBC this a.m. to say that the “stock market always did better under Democratic administrations.” Like Obama claiming he was too young to know anything about Ayers, Howard Dean conveniently forgot about Jimmy Carter. A far-left Obama administration, ironically, will have revisionist historians describing Carter as a conservative when compared to Obama.

Obama is a Left-Wing Academic
Someone sent me an email praising Barry Obama and describing him as "ethical" and "progressive" and also said he was a conciliator. Is a conciliator someone who agrees with anything, and says anything in order to get elected? Perhaps then the man's partially right.
But I don’t know how anyone could use the words “ethical” and Obama in the same paragraph. The devil is always in the details and Mr. Obama seems to have strung a bunch of platitudes and bumper slogans together and mated them with some left-wing ideas from Marcuse. Where the leftist self-styled academic “intelligentsia” really loses me is in the traditional anti-Israel/pro-Palestine cant. It’s not so much that I couldn’t accept a new Arab state called “Palestine” so much as that many left-liberal academics have this rather idealized view of a West Bank Palestine. They have only to look to Gaza to obtain a more realistic picture. Obama tried to make a lawyerly case in front of AIPAC but Farrakhan, Fleger, Wright, and Ayers speak otherwise and it is the traditional left which will hold sway over Obama. He’s been in bed with such people for too long. It seems to me that Obama is very much the type of person to feed America’s friends to the alligators in the hopes of being the last one eaten.
Inasmuch as the original comments were about the economics of an Obama administration, Obama’s generous trillion dollar expenditures in new programs, his intended expansion of government, and his reactionary tax policies are hardly “progressive” and can only considered “conciliatory” by self-loathing Americans. In typical “class warfare” fashion, Obama believes you win the race by hamstringing your fastest runners. Obamanomics will send a massive blood clot to America’s economic heart.

Free Reporter Barbara West! Imprisoned and Tortured by Fortress Obama
WFTV-Channel 9 has our hero of the day, Barbara West, who is right now being ripped apart by the Fortress Obama Media Suppression Squad. Watch Biden's eyes blink multiple times as he tries to beguile and intimidate the bold and courageous woman reporter with jive-ass remarks such as "Are you joking."
No, Joe, we're not joking. You need to answer the questions, and you need pwn up to what you said about Barack Obama during the primaries and recently, that Obama's not up to the job. Why else would he be so sequestered, shielded, protected? You can't hide all of it behind a smile, eye-blinking, and the peripatetic,pathetic verbiage which is your stock in trade.
It's just garbage, Joe, garbage. And you're trying to pull off the biggest scam in modern history.
Female Canadian Reporters Laughing At Obama and Biden
Honest Questions: Beyond Joe Biden’s Pay Grade!I thought Obama and his verbose sidekick were supposed to make America popular again outside the United States. I guess popularity in Gaza or Berlin is not the same as popularity in Canada where Judi McCleod dishes it about the "vile smile" of Joe Biden.
It's a great story Judi's written, but here in America we're getting used to Fortress Obama, a high and very dark wall which emits no light and very controlled information. Most of the American media is marching in lockstep to the Obama tune, but the press is stil free and independent in Judi McCleod's part of the world.
We'll have more on the Barbara West story later but read Judi right now. It's very accurate as well as entertaining.

Pennsylvania Doctors Running from Obama, Clinton, Rendell
I was wondering why there were so few young doctors in my home town in Pennsylvania until I read a Wall Street Journal article entitled "Pennsylvania is Driving Its Doctors Away" by Frederic Jarrett. Jarrett points out some startling bad news. It seems that Governor Rendell, who once supported lessening the insurance burden on Pennsylvania physicians, is now toadying up to Obama in the hope of getting a job. The photo of the grinning trio above should tip you off that something fishy is in the works. Jarrett says it's because Rendell wants to divert funds originally intended to protect PA Doctors from outrageous malpractice insurance premiums and use the money to expand Medicaid coverage. It's a really whackjob idea to expand the pool of medicaid coverage patients who must beg for treatment amidst a diminishing pool of doctors who feel the need to flee the state. Here's some of what Jarett points out:
The state Department of Health reported earlier this year that the number of practicing physicians in Pennsylvania is down 6% from a few years ago.
Younger doctors just are not as willing to settle down in a state where liability payouts are twice the national average and physician income is 44th out of the 50 states.
Today, about 7%-9% of PA doctors are under 35. A few years ago, the number was 15%.
In some specialties, more than 40% of the practicing physicians are more than 50 years old.
Less than 80% of physicians with active licenses are engaged in patient care.
Newly minted doctors educated here are setting up their practices elsewhere. In 1992, 60% of residents stayed in Pennsylvania when they finished their training. Now only 20% do so.
What will Obama, Hillary, and Rendell dream up next? A cabinet level agency (comprised of lawyers like Obama, Clinton, and Rendell) to administer the millions in tort revenues sucked out of the blood of Pennsylvania physicians? Of course, if you earn three times the poverty level at your job, you will have to get your own medical insurance and vist your doctor who probably moved to a state like New Hampshire where doctors are respected and appreciated.
I'm a Bitter Gun Owner and I Vote in Pennsylvania
NRA-ILA :: Grassroots ActivismThis is funny considering Barack Obama's demonstrated contempt for Pennsylvanians who hunt, own handguns, or read the bible. It was at a fancy San Francisco soiree that Obama issued his now famous condemnation of Pennsylvanians when he thought that nobody was in earshot.
"They're bitter in Pennsylvania and all they can do is cling to guns and religions."
Playing the part of the urban hipster, Obama went on to brag about his coolness and distance from the uglier facts of life which most of us have to endure. Sucess in politics, as in life, was all a matter of how you said things, according to Obama. Surely, the most viscious tryants would readily succumb to his Chicago style inside politics wit and hyperbolic rhetorical flourishes. So believes Obama.
Anyway, buy a yard sign, if only to stick it up Obama's skinny rear end. The money goes for a good cause--2nd Amendment Constitutional rights. And Join the NRA. Do it now, before Obama stations a gun warden inside your living room.

We've created a new yard sign that will send a message from all of you "bitter" gun owners to Obama this election season with our own slogan: "I'm a Bitter Gun Owner and I Vote!"
It has been estimated that well-placed campaign signs can account for four percentage points on Election Day. Think back to the 2000 presidential election, where 537 votes in Florida separated George W. Bush from Al Gore, and four points seems like a landslide! While you are focused like a laser beam on the November 4 election, some gun owners may not be aware of what's at stake for the future of the Second Amendment on Election Day.
To help us raise gun owner awareness of the impending election, and to market NRA's campaign efforts, we have three colorful, patriotic campaign yard signs for sale featuring our "I'm the NRA & I Vote," "Vote Freedom First," and our newest, "I'm a Bitter Gun Owner and I Vote!" slogans.
These high quality signs are bold, durable, and easy to assemble. Everything needed to assemble the sign is contained in one compact package, and all components are made in the USA.
Each sign costs a very reasonable $15.95, or you can order a combination pack of two signs for $26.95, or three signs for $38.95 (includes shipping and handling). A portion of the proceeds goes directly to NRA-ILA to assist our efforts to protect, preserve, and strengthen our Second Amendment rights!
By proudly displaying your NRA yard sign, and showing your support for the Second Amendment, you will greatly enhance our ability to deliver victory for pro-gun candidates on November 4!

Obama's Illinois Gun Ban Record
It's hunting season in Pennsylvania and elsewhere and Obama's legal teams are waiting in the blinds to shoot down 2nd Amendment Constitutional rights of citizens to bear arms. To say so, of course, is to be accused of scare tactics but Obama's pencil-necked geeky anti-gun lawyers are the real scare. Because they lead pampered and indulged live in the Ivory Towers of a liberal-left Utopia, they are certain that they can do your thinking better than you can.
But Obama and his shady retinue of anti-2nd Amendment jockstrap caddies are lying when they tell you they are looking for a handgun ban. For that matter, it's hard to find an issue upon which Obama hasn't lied, isn't currently lying, or is planning to lie. Here's an open leter from Illinois State Rifle Association Executive Director Richard Pearson written in October 2008:

For that matter, it's hard to find an issue upon which Obama hasn't lied, isn't currently lying, or is planning to lie. Here's an open leter from Illinois State Rifle Association Executive Director Richard Pearson written in October 2008:
Fellow Sportsman,
Hello, my name is Rich Pearson and I have been active in the firearm rights movement for over 40 years. For the past 15 years, I have served in the Illinois state capitol as the chief lobbyist for the Illinois State Rifle Association.
I lobbied Barack Obama extensively while he was an Illinois State Senator. As a result of that experience, I know Obama's attitudes toward guns and gun owners better than anyone. The truth be told, in all my years in the Capitol I have never met a legislator who harbors more contempt for the law-abiding firearm owner than does Barack Obama.
Although Obama claims to be an advocate for the 2nd Amendment, his voting record in the Illinois Senate paints a very different picture. While a state senator, Obama voted for a bill that would ban nearly every hunting rifle, shotgun and target rifle owned by Illinois citizens. That same bill would authorize the state police to raid homes of gun owners to forcibly confiscate banned guns. Obama supported a bill that would shut down law-abiding firearm manufacturers including Springfield Armory, Armalite, Rock River Arms and Les Baer. Obama also voted for a bill that would prohibit law-abiding citizens from purchasing more than one gun per month.
Without a doubt, Barack Obama has proven himself to be an enemy of the law abiding firearm owner. At the same time, Obama has proven himself to be a friend to the hardened criminal. While a state senator, Obama voted 4 times against legislation that would allow a homeowner to use a firearm in defense of home and family.
Does Barack Obama still sound to you like a "friend" of the law-abiding gun owner?
And speaking of friends, you can always tell a person by the company they keep. Obama counts among his friends the Rev. Michael Pfleger - a renegade Chicago priest who has openly called for the murder of gun shop owners and pro-gun legislators. Then there is his buddy Richard Daley, the mayor of Chicago who has declared that if it were up to him, nobody would be allowed to own a gun. And let's not forget Obama's pal George Soros - the guy who has pumped millions of dollars into the UN's international effort to disarm law-abiding citizens.
Obama has shown that he is more than willing to use other people's money to fund his campaign to take your guns away from you. While a board member of the leftist Joyce Foundation, Barack Obama wrote checks for tens of millions of dollars to extremist gun control organizations such as the Illinois Council Against Handgun Violence and the Violence Policy Center.
Does Barack Obama still sound to you like a "friend" of the law-abiding gun owner?
By now, I'm sure that many of you have received mailings from an organization called "American Hunters and Shooters Association(AHSA)" talking about what a swell fellow Obama is and how he honors the 2nd Amendment and how you will never have to worry about Obama coming to take your guns. Let me make it perfectly clear - everything the AHSA says about Obama is pure hogwash. The AHSA is headed by a group of left-wing elitists who subscribe to the British view of hunting and shooting. That is, a state of affairs where hunting and shooting are reserved for the wealthy upper-crust who can afford guided hunts on exclusive private reserves. The AHSA is not your friend, never will be.
In closing, I'd like to remind you that I'm a guy who has actually gone nose to nose with Obama on gun rights issues. The Obama I know cannot even begin to identify with this nation's outdoor traditions. The Obama I know sees you, the law abiding gun owner, as nothing but a low-class lummox who is easily swayed by the flash of a smile and a ration of rosy rhetoric. The Obama I know is a stony-faced liar who has honed his skill at getting what he wants - so long as people are willing to give it to him.
That's the Barack Obama I know.
The ISRA is the state's leading advocate of safe, lawful and responsible firearms ownership. Founded in 1903, the ISRA has represented the interests of millions of law-abiding Illinois firearm owners.

My Republican Vote for John McCain Doesn’t Count: ACORN
I guess there’s no point in voting but I’m going to vote for John McCain anyway. There’s no point in my vote because ACORN has been around the country stuffing registration databases with phony names, pet names, Dallas Cowboy team members, dead people and visitors from Outer Space. No doubt my McCain vote will be cancelled out by a gerbil named John Smith.The latest ACORN attack on democracy is in Alabama. Six counties in Alabama have more registered voters than they have voters of eligible voting age. This is typical of the ACORN attacks on democracy in other states, and it’s well known that the Obama Dirty Tricks Squad has been very active in my state, Pennsylvania. With the race so close, and with a dismissive attitude by the atrophied pro-Obama liberal media, it is very likely the New and Old Left politicians will be able to pull off a ballot box coup d’etat.
A Google search shows ACORN fraud across the country and it is interesting that the media is so “in the bag” for Obama that there are actually far-left news articles claiming that federal investigations of massive ACORN voter fraud are Republican attempt to “suppress the vote.” Yeah, well right!.... Let’s not suppress the fraudulent voters. We might do permanent damage to their self-esteem.
But I’m mad, even madder than that guy who told McCain he was mad. I’m so mad my head could explode in the voting booth, leaving brain matter all over the place. It’s likely your head will explode, too, and then what? That will be the only brain matter used by the officials who manage and enforce the legal provisions of a voting democracy.
We need to implement some system of photo or BIO ID voting IMMEDIATELY!
Obama Pal Gov. Deval Patrick has tie$ to embattled ACORN - BostonHerald.com
Gov. Deval Patrick has tie$ to embattled ACORN - BostonHerald.comThere were some people in the Chicago Area saying that Obama and close friend Deval Patrick were on the "down-low." I don't know exactly what that means but maybe it means that Deval Patrick is Barack Obama's BBF. It's kinda' cute really, except that the friendship was such that Obama felt comfortable enough to borrow a campaign speech from Deval Patrick and deliver it when he was running against Hillary clinton. The conservative press caught Obama on that one and he was embarrassed. I guess they'll both be embarrassed by the ACORN connection of the two politician. Click the headline and read the Boston newspaper.

Obama's Millions Could Shrink U.S. Budget Deficit
How much money does it really cost to buy an election? No kidding, I'd really like to know. I'd imagine there is a finite sum that one could spend to ensure that one's candidate could become president, no matter the qualifications. I'd like to know what that figure is.
I know one thing. Barack Hussein Obama has raised $150 million in September alone. I've no idea where the money comes from and Obama's not about to tell us, but that's a good chunk of change. If Obama's lied about "public funding," he owes us at least some "public information" about where the money comes from.
When you add the $150 million in September with the small chunks of about $50 million in other months, he could shrink the budget deficit entirely by himself. So why does he have to use our taxpaying money to fund his future trillion dollars in new spending?
But Obama's not going to use his fundraising abilities to shrink the deficit or put it to other good use. He says it is more important to get himself elected. I'd rather Obama kept his word about public funding and used the money to either shrink the deficit or give it directly to people who need it far worse than the political ad agencies.

Colin Powell is a Stark Contrast with Barack Obama
The buzz around Colin Powell’s expected endorsement of Barack Obama will thrill the Obama camp followers but, at the same time, they’ve got to worry about the contrast between Obama and Powell. So far as I can tell, they have only a single thing in common.
General Colin Powell was an architect of the Gulf Wars and, like McCain, long served his country with selfless patriotism. Obama talks about his “humble origins” and frequently mentions that his mother was on food stamps for a while. But in the Sixties and Seventies, a lot of people were on food stamps, and “living off the fat of the land” was common among middle class hippies and others who felt the collective need of a long break from the nine-to-five work-a-day Johnnie world. Obama’s mother was such a Bohemian, a left-liberal activist, and rebelled against her Midwestern roots.
Colin Powell, on the other hand, grew up poor and ambitious in a New York Borough neighborhood. He took one long look around in his Harlem neighborhood and decided to make something of himself. Here’s what a quick bio from Wiki has to say about him:
•
I can understand why Powell would join the 92 percent of African-Americans who supported Obama in the primaries. And I admire the other 8 percent who supported Hillary and who may now support McCain. Both positions reflect courage, given their respective statuses and the incredible political pressures generate by this election campaign.
But the most striking thing about the Colin Powell endorsement is the sharp contrast between men like Powell and McCain who dedicated themselves to America and men like Barack Obama who dedicated themselves to convenient, and ethically suspect (if not outright corrupt), political opportunism. I would worry about that contrast if I were one of the Obamanites.

•
Powell was born in Harlem, a neighborhood in the New York City borough of Manhattan in 1937 to Jamaican immigrant parents and was raised in the South Bronx. He also has Scottish, and other ancestries.[1] Powell attended Morris High School, a former public school in The Bronx, New York City, from which he graduated in 1954. While in school, he worked a local shop where he picked up Yiddish from the shopkeepers and some of the customers. He remembers some of his Yiddish to this day.[2] He gained a bachelor's degree in geology from City College of New York attaining a "C" average, according to his 2006 graduation address at Marymount University. He later obtained an MBA from The George Washington University after his second tour in Vietnam in 1971.
I can understand why Powell would join the 92 percent of African-Americans who supported Obama in the primaries. And I admire the other 8 percent who supported Hillary and who may now support McCain. Both positions reflect courage, given their respective statuses and the incredible political pressures generate by this election campaign.
But the most striking thing about the Colin Powell endorsement is the sharp contrast between men like Powell and McCain who dedicated themselves to America and men like Barack Obama who dedicated themselves to convenient, and ethically suspect (if not outright corrupt), political opportunism. I would worry about that contrast if I were one of the Obamanites.

McCain Champions Boxing Regulations in Lonely Fight - WSJ.com
McCain Champions Boxing Regulations in Lonely Fight - WSJ.comSenator John McCain has been a long time boxing supporter. I've seen him ringside at many events over the years--on big fight televised events. McCain boxed at the Naval Academy many years ago--he sees the sport as a character builder. It seems to have worked where he's concerned.

Obama's Gun Control Mania
Behind the shady goings on in the Obama campaign is the looming figure of internationalist America hating George Soros. It's no secret that Obama is trying to buy this campaign and he has plenty of money to stifle the airwaves and soffocate the opposition. He's spending millions to buy whole hourly segments of television time to carpet bomb voters with an Obama propaganda film. This is in addition to the 3 million daiily dollars in regular campaign ads. Obama believes far more in the power of money to buy the votes than he does in his so-called "platform." The world hasn't seen such a whitewash since Lenni Reifenstahl used film to aggrandize the Hitler regime at the 1939 Olympics. Film at 11.
George Soros and Barack Obama are big gun control freaks who support the U.N initiatives on world gun control. Actually, they support any and all gun control efforts.
You can understand how then I "laughed and cried" at the radio ad I heard yesterday which conveys the "testimonial" of an imaginatory "NRA member" who "supports Barack Obama." It went something like this:
Let me tell you somoething: Real NRA members and many other responsible gun-owning Americans don't support Barack Obama. If you're not an NRA member, I would urge you to join it as I did. If you don't have the money, join it when you get some. But here's the truth abot the Obama anti-gun mania:
Obama wants to overturn the recent Supreme Court Decision reinforcing the 2nd Amendment. He wants to interpret the decision in a peculiar way which will allow you to own single-shot shotguns.
Obama would ban all auto and semi-auto weapons and anything that looks like an "assault weapon" even though criminals would be able to obtain "ghettoe sweepers" easily on the black market.
Even though Obama will "allow" single-shot rifles, you will have to climb a high mountain of red tape to get one. Since you can't be trusted, you will have to be registered in a national data base for single-shot shotgun/rifle owners.
If you own guns that do not fit into Obama's gun-control mania, you will be a criminal in your own country and subject to arrest and prosecution. Your arrest and prosecution will be a political issue rather than a legal one since the U.S. constitution guarantees your right to bear arms under the 2nd Amendment.
Keep in mind that Obama supported a total ban on civilian ownership of handguns while he was a state senator from Illinois. He would have you think he "changed" his views but "changed" views from Obama are designed to gain votes. Keep in mind that he changed his mind about Farrakhan, Wright, Fleger, Ayers, Rezko, Auchi, and others who would cause people not to vote for Obama.

The Long and Short of the Palin Alaska Investigation
The following is plagiarized from the Fox News Website. I'm in a damn hurry--go to the website to read the whole thing at :http://elections.foxnews.com/2008/10/10/palin-pre-empts-state-report-clears-self-trooper-probe/
But this is the condensed long and short of it:
The McCain-Palin campaign's report instead blames former campaign opponent, Andrew Halcro, who has a blog, of conspiring with Wooten to pin Monegan's dismissal on the family's dispute with Wooten. Three days after Monegan was fired, they say, Wooten told his ex-wife, Palin's sister, that: "You guys are going down. Get ready for the show."
Two days after that confrontation, they say, Halcro and Wooten met at a hotel bar in Anchorage for more than three hours -- and that evening, Halcro posted the first accusations on his blog that Monegan had been fired because of a vendetta against Wooten by the Palin family.
"It is tragic that a false story hatched by a blogger after drinks with Trooper Wooten led the legislature to allocate over $100,000 of public money to be spent in what has become a politically driven investigation," the 21-page report concludes.
Although the report describes Wooten as a separate issue, the McCain campaign goes into great detail about the "rogue" state police officer and his "long history of unstable and erratic behavior."
The campaign describes allegations of violence, including threatening Palin's family and shooting his stepson with a stun gun.
The report also includes allegations that Wooten cheated the workers' compensation system.

CNBC Reports Wall Street Drop is Reaction to Obama Presidency
Okay, the headline is the usual eye-catching crap required of internet-media market attention getting. But it's TRUE. Carlos Quintanilla mentioned it to galloping guest reporter and NBC headcaster John Harwood. Here's the almost direct quote:
"
Harwood tried to mute the issue with his response, though he did acknowledge that the economy was tracking opposite to yesterday's polls favoring Obama, That, too, is a way of saying things, but in the fast changing world which sees the world economy suffocating, Harwood was using yesterday's vomit to gauge today's menu.
I've never been a big believer in polls and this year has to be the worst. So far as the polls go, McCain jumped 6 points in one day as the world beocmes more aware of Rezko, Wright, Fleger, Ayers, Auchi, and that Palestinian extremist whose name I can't recalll right now. But I don't believe that either--too many people have been screwing with the polls and with public opinion and with broadcast media to be right or reliable.
The only thing I'm clear on is that things are bad, really, really bad, bad on a whole lot of levels, and I ain't voting for Obama and his Baloney Brother, Joe Biden.

So hey, John...many people around here are saying that the market is reacting to the prospect of huge tax increases which would result from an Obama presidency. What do you think?"
