Can We Really Be Sure What Obama Isn't?

Barack Obama will spend part of the day today in Middletown , which is very nice of him when you stop to consider that he should really spend the day in Florida persuading Jewish voters that he would not ...

Great article and the 'Dear Mr. Dershowitz.....' letter was pitch-perfect hilarious!

Hilarious! The Dershowitz letter is priceless. We do have some scarey citizens out there - if you didn't laugh about it you'd have to cry.

I'd love to see you do a piece like this about the supporters who claim they will switch parties if their person doesn't win the nomination.
I could tear my hair out on these dimwitted nuggets, so if there's any way you can make me laugh....

I laughed till I cried! Great job. Now please do a piece on the misguided Hillary supporters who are still donating to her fated campaign. When it's all over, Barack will have to pay off her campaign debt at the cost of his own and REIMBURSE HER for her loan! Do any of those slightly less educated white women who are still supporting her understand the implications of this? It means THE DEMOCRATS HAVE LESS MONEY FOR THE GENERAL ELECTION THANKS TO HILLARY.

Please consider that many older, white, working-class people voted for and still support Senator Clinton because they really want Bill Clinton back in the White House, running the country, that is, running the President! Historical sexism prevails in Senator Clinton's appeal as much as racism.
Surely Senator Clinton's embracing racial bigotry disqualifies her from the Vice Presidency as much as from the Presidency.

Hey Nottingham, MD...

Throwing your insane anti-Obama rhetoric in with your pro-Clinton rhetoric is tipping your hat just a little bit.

At lease seperate them into different posts so we can go to sleep thinking this idiocy is coming from the other party.

Your anti-Islam stuff is about as bad as McCarthyism by the way (hope you're proud).

This article made my day.

I don't ever post things, but you, unlike most political writers, seem to have both intellect and humor. Good combo.

Re: the "Dershowitz Letter" (hilarious)-- I know 18th century estate planning is not the professor's forte, but given Dershowitz' ego I bet he would take it on

As an urban woman voter who used to listen to Obama's podcast, he'll have to do a lot better than make sweet (respectful) love to Hillary to get my vote, "sweetie."

How hypocritical of you to stand up for a politician who now has to defend against what he is not, while flaming that fire for another. You just couldn't help it though could you?

Obama's campaign is one of the most political and machinated that I have seen. While I did believe at one time that he had potential to be a great leader, I now think his ego has obliterated any chances of Americans seeing that potential realized.

An amusing and entertaining article. This campaign certainly can use an interjection of levity from time to time.

This is for iThought: Obama must defend himself because the false claims about/against him are being flamed (using your words) by Hillary fans, neo-cons, right-biased media.. Doesn't matter what he says, some just won't let go.

QUOTES FROM BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA'S BOOKS

.

Disdain for whites:
.

From Dreams of My Father, " I FOUND A SOLACE IN NURSING A PERVASIVE SENSE OF GRIEVANCE AND ANIMOSITY AGAINST MY MOTHER'S RACE".

From 'Dreams of my Father', "THE EMOTION BETWEEN THE RACES COULD NEVER BE PURE...THE OTHER RACE WOULD ALWAYS REMAIN JUST THAT; MENACING, ALIEN AND APART."

From 'Dreams of My Father',
"I CEASED TO ADVERTISE MY MOTHER'S RACE AT THE AGE OF 12 OR 13, WHEN I BEGAN TO SUSPECT THAT BY DOING SO I WAS INGRATIATING MYSELF TO WHITES."

From Dreams Of My Father, "NEVER EMULATE THE WHITE MEN and brown men whose fates didn't speak to my own. IT WAS INTO MY FATHER'S IMAGE, THE BLACK MAN, SON OF AFRICA, THAT I'D PACKED ALL THE ATTRIBUTES I SOUGHT IN MYSELF".

From Dreams Of My Father:
"THAT HATE HADN'T GONE AWAY," he wrote, BLAMING "WHITE PEOPLE— some cruel, some IGNORANT, sometimes a single face, sometimes just a faceless image of a system claiming power over our lives."

From Dreams Of My Father;
"There were enough of us on campus to constitute a tribe, and when it came to hanging out many of us chose to function like a tribe, staying close together, traveling in packs," he wrote. "IT REMAINED NECESSARY TO PROVE WHICH SIDE YOU WERE ON, TO SHOW YOUR LOYALTY TO THE BLACK MASSES, TO STRIKE OUT, AND NAME NAMES. "

From Dreams Of My Father, "I HAD GROWN ACCUSTOMED , everywhere, TO SUSPICIONS BETWEEN THE RACES."

.

Appreciation of Islam:
.
Quote from Barack Obama's book, Dreams Of My Father:
"THE PERSON WHO MADE ME PROUDEST OF ALL, though, was [HALF BROTHER ] ROY .. HE CONVERTED TO ISLAM" .

From 'Dreams of my Father', "IN INDONESIA, I HAD SPENT TWO YEARS AT A MUSLIM SCHOOL."
"I STUDIED THE KORAN."

From 'Audacity of Hope: "LOLO (Obama's step father) FOLLOWED .. ISLAM..." "I LOOKED TO LOLO FOR GUIDANCE".

From 'The Audacity Of Hope, "I WILL STAND WITH THE MUSLIMS SHOULD THE POLITICAL WINDS SHIFT IN AN UGLY DIRECTION."

From The Audacity Of Hope, "WE ARE NO LONGER just A CHRISTIAN NATION..We ARE also a Jewish nation, A MUSLIM NATION, a Buddhist nation, a Hindu nation, and a nation of nonbelievers."

This election is too important to be voting based on genitalia or skin color. We need a skilled leader that has proven that he can bring people together. Obama has electrified the electorate and motivated millions to participate in the process. He has earned the spot, he has played fair, and he has gained respect form all corners of our society.Ferraro is such a "feminist" she would claim he was trying to "get a little" if he offered to row her around the lake.

What about Lieberman who is pushing America in to war with Iran? For whome he is doing it? Certainly not for America. Where should you send him to? Israel? Can you refute the fact that Liberman is not loyal to America?

Great article! Refreshing to see the solidarity of the liberal elite behind the Obama Hoax realizing they still have work to do selling their fraud.
