This was the feeble attempt by Michelle Obama to convince voters that they shouldn’t vote for McCain/Palin but rather Obama/Biden. Her theory? That the Obama ticket actually owns the issues and the McCain ticket only has a pretty face. Or at least that was the intent of the veiled warning.
In fairness, Obama covered her words by stating that she was referring to herself but as we all know, she’s not all that good looking to begin with, so I don’t see anything resembling the truth in her cover. But knowing that she meant to instruct voters that they should not vote for McCain/Palin because she’s cute, that also means that voters shouldn’t vote for Barack Hussein Obama simply because he’s black. Truth be told, and it has by many on the left as well as the right, the only reason why BO is where he is – is because he’s black. He is unqualified for the position that he seeks and those who are willing to leave history and race out of this election know this fact.
The leftards* of this country are willing to put “historical nature” or some twisted sense of reparations ahead of the good of the nation. We’ve seen in the past where this has led to terrible consequences. For instance, the historical nature of John F. Kennedy’s election.
Kennedy is the man who first sent troops into South Vietnam. A fact that is often overlooked by the Camelot dreamers left over from the 1960s. His assassination led to the ascension of Lyndon Johnson to the Presidency, Johnson’s escalation of the Vietnam Conflict, the fragmentation of the country because of the Conflict, AND the Great Society. Failure, Failure, Failure, and Failure. All because history needed a Catholic to be elected President. It was wrong then and it is wrong now.
Now we have threats of race wars if we don’t elect Barack. Anyone who doesn’t vote for Barack is already being referred to as racist. This nation is going to be torn apart along racial lines because a grossly unqualified black man got himself nominated by the Party of feelings.
On November 4th, the nation will go to the polls and make a decision in the question who is most qualified to lead this nation for the next 4 years. So let’s take Michelle’s advice and not vote because she’s cute, but let’s also not vote because he’s black. Voting for Barack because he’s black is racist. Not the other way around as others have suggested. And anyone who encourages race wars if Obama isn’t elected, Fatimah Ali, are more interested in dividing this nation along racial lines than electing anyone to the Presidency.
It seems to me that if the African-American community fails to accept the loss of Barack Hussein Obama in a civil manner, then perhaps this nation is not ready for an African-American as President. Threats cannot determine the outcome of this election. For if they do the nation cannot survive.
We also must consider the source of this warning. It comes from a columnist from the Philadelphia Daily News named Fatimah Ali. Hmmm… That doesn’t sound Arab does it?
Should we expect anything less from the radical left than threats of violence if they aren’t put into power. Just look at the events yesterday in St. Paul. Anarchists and anti-war protesters get violent in the streets. Trash bins knocked over and set on fire. Car and business windows smashed.
It seems to me that if the African-American community fails to accept the loss of Barack Hussein Obama in a civil manner, then perhaps this nation is not ready for an African-American as President. Threats cannot determine the outcome of this election. For if they do the nation cannot survive.
A news story on Newsmax.com yesterday suggested that Barack Obama was in attendance at the Trinity Church of Christ in July of 2007 where Rev. J. Wright delivered one of his divisive sermons tin foil hat wearing/race baiting rants.
In fact, Obama was present in the South Side Chicago church on July 22 last year when Jim Davis, a freelance correspondent for Newsmax, attended services along with Obama. [See: ”Obama’s Church: Cauldron of Division.”]
In his sermon that day, Wright tore into America, referring to the “United States of White America” and lacing his sermon with expletives as Obama listened. Hearing Wright’s attacks on his own country, Obama had the opportunity to walk out, but Davis said the senator sat in his pew and nodded in agreement.
Addressing the Iraq war, Wright thundered, “Young African-American men” were “dying for nothing.” The “illegal war,” he shouted, was “based on Bush’s lies” and is being “fought for oil money.”
Obama’s most famous celebrity backer, Oprah Winfrey began attending Wright’s church in 1984. Last year, Newsmax magazine reported that Winfrey abruptly stopped attending years ago, and suggested that she did so to distance herself from Wright’s inflammatory rhetoric. She soon found herself a target of Wright, who excoriated her for having broken with “traditional faith.”
Didn’t Barack wonder why? I mean if the most famous member of my church defects, I’d wonder why?
Today Obama is claiming that he wasn’t at the church on July 22, 2007 citing that his schedule had him in Miami. But the Newsmax Freelancer was in attendance and claimed in August of 2007 that he was indeed there. Who are we to believe? The man on the hot seat who claims now that he wasn’t there? Or a witness who wrote in an article in August of 2007 that says he was there?
Barack Obama issued a firm denial Monday to a report that he was in church in Chicago last July when his controversial pastor delivered an anti-white sermon.
Doubts were cast on the story Monday as records showed the Democratic presidential contender was in Miami that day.
On the “fact check” portion of Obama’s campaign Web site, the campaign states: “Fact: Obama Did Not Attend Services on July 22.”
Reports circulated over the weekend that Obama had attended the fiery sermon by the Rev. Jeremiah Wright Jr. But a copy of Obama’s schedule viewed by FOX News as well as video of Obama speaking appear to place him in Miami that day at a convention of the National Council of La Raza.
A National Council of La Raza official recalls Obama arriving on time that day for a 1:30 p.m. event that was part of the group’s annual national convention.
There ya go. He skipped his own Pastor’s anti-American racist rhetoric to address a group who is racist. La Raza?!? I mean if you are going to have an alibi for not attending a racist speech it really shouldn’t be that he was giving a speech to another racist organization. But that is where he says he was.
At this point I think we can agree that the only substance in Obama’s rhetoric is being refuted. The only substance in his campaign has been the character angle. Between Wright and La Raza, Obama is proving that he lacks character.
Beware Barack, you are reaching maximum temperature. The fork is about to be inserted.
Note:
Newsmax has issued a clarification above the linked article.
I know I know, I’m late with this. But we all can’t be in front of the computer 24/7.
Barack Hussein Obama finally got around to issuing a definitive denunciation of his Pastor, the Rev. Jeremiah Wright. After first sending out a statement from a surrogate, then giving Major Garrett from Fox News Channel some cock and bull story stating,
“None of these statements were ones I had heard myself personally in the pews.”
and
“Once I saw them I had to be very clear about the fact that these are not statements that I am comfortable with. I reject them completely they are not ones that reflect my values or my ideals.”
I’m sorry Senator, if you attend a church, one is logically to deduce that you agree with the teachings of that church. Wright was the “spiritual” leader of that church and you attended it for 20 years. Your children were baptized by the man, and it has taken you weeks to denounce the idiot, this all tells me that your statements are politically motivated including Friday afternoon’s doozy.
“Let me say at the outset that I vehemently disagree and strongly condemn the statements that have been the subject of this controversy. I categorically denounce any statement that disparages our great country or serves to divide us from our allies. I also believe that words that degrade individuals have no place in our public dialogue, whether it’s on the campaign stump or in the pulpit. In sum, I reject outright the statements by Rev. Wright that are at issue.”
Wright is a racist and a September 11th Conspiracy Theorist who used his position at the pulpit to politically proselytize his congregation. He is likely to be hung out to dry by the IRS and the FEC and your choice of a church will likely feel the ill effects of that as well.
The Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. was someone who had a dream of unity. One where blacks and whites could live as one. Conditions today are closer to that dream than ever. But there is that certain element on both sides of the issue that will never in their narrow minded thought processes ever accept this truth. Wright is one of these people.
He is a divider. He is a hater. And he hates America first. You Senator are a product of Wright’s teachings for the past 20 years and no amount rhetoric will you be able to muster will distance yourself enough from the moron’s words of hate.
Liberals say that Conservatives are full of hate. The truth is I find the opposite is true. Just look what leftist sites write about Conservative bloggers including myself. Hate is a tool for them and they use it well.
Democrats in Washington hate the Bush Administration. Democrats nation wide hate America. Liberals are ashamed of everything American but yet they want to run America as if under their control America suddenly becomes some sort of utopia.
The race baiters of this nation use hate. Like their white supremacist counterparts they are ignorant. People like Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton, Louis Farrakhan, and yes Jeremiah Wright are race baiters. To them it is the constant pounding of racism that rules their lives and without it to rant about, their lives would be insignificant.
Wright, Jackson, Sharpton, and Farrakhan never wore chains but will say “we” as if they had. They were never lynched, but will say “we” as if they had. They were never subjected to being forced to pay a poll tax but will say “we” as if they had. The list goes on and on and on.
Here is a fact that you all need to understand. There is no one alive in this country who lived as or who owned slaves. It is time that we put the divisive subject of slavery in our past where it belongs and remember that our daily intercourse with each other is governed by our own character or lack of it. Race plays such an inconsequential role in the lives of a vast majority of Americans and it is time those who can’t let it go to do so or be subject to public ridicule.
I live in a town where racially I’m probably a minority. Do I care? No. To be honest I don’t let it rule my life and the bulk of the people that I encounter on a daily basis are nice, law abiding people who just want to eek out a living in this cruel world. Beyond that, we don’t give a crap what color we are. And neither should Wright, Farrakhan, Sharpton, Jackson, David Duke, or any other race baiting moron in this country.
Obama’s campaign announced that the minister, the Rev. Jeremiah Wright Jr., had left its spiritual advisory committee after videotapes of his sermons again ignited fierce debate in news accounts and political blogs.
Obama did not clarify whether Wright volunteered to leave his African American Religious Leadership Committee, a loose group of supporters associated with the campaign, or whether the campaign asked him to leave.
There was no formal reaction from the Clinton campaign, but Lanny Davis, a senior adviser, said he took Obama at his word.
“I give Senator Obama completely — completely — the benefit of the doubt that he has nothing to do with this bigotry that’s being spewed forth by this man,” Davis said on MSNBC’s “Tucker.” “For me, that’s all he has to say.
“I think we should stop this guilt-by-association thing, because some of our supporters say stupid things,” Davis said.
eated a firestorm among political observers and commentators.
“Mr. Obama obviously would not choose to belong to Mr. Wright’s church and seek his advice unless he agreed with at least some of his views,” Wall Street Journal columnist Ron Kessler, publisher of the conservative Web site NewsMax.com, wrote Friday.
Kathryn Jean Lopez, editor of the Web site of the conservative magazine National Review, wrote Friday that “now we know he’s contributed money to, voluntarily listened to, and publicly defended a cleric who peddles racial warfare.”
Others saw an attempt to “smear” Obama.
“How come righteous Republicans are rarely asked about the views of their spiritual advisers? Or why wasn’t George W. Bush (and the presidents preceding him) forced to distance himself from the anti-semitic comments of Billy Graham?” Ari Berman wrote Friday on the Web site of the liberal magazine The Nation, for which he is a contributing writer.
This fact is precisely why the right side of the sphere needs to keep up the pressure on Obama. If Hillary is unwilling to capitalize on an obvious character flaw and laps in judgement, then we must. Obama is making judgement a campaign point. His choice in pastors shows a lack of sound judgement. Is this the kind of person we want in charge of nuclear weapons? I say no.
Obama’s experience deficiencies and lack of sound judgement could combine and lead to an even larger loss of human life at the hands of radical Islamic Terrorists should he be elected President of the United States. It is my belief that if the moment of truth were to come during his term as President, that he would hesitate and get people killed. It is my belief that should it become necessary for the United States to use our nuclear arsenal that a President Obama would fail to do his duty because he lacks the judgement necessary to detach himself from his humanity in order to make the required decision to destroy our nation’s enemy (ies) at that moment of truth.
Lack of experience and sound judgement makes Obama’s empty shell rhetoric even more dangerous because the Politically Apathetic American Lemmings of this country are likely to nominate then elect that shell of a human being willing to follow his former pastor down into the abyss of hell. It is our duty on the Conservative side to forget our differences with our nominee and back him the nth degree in order to prevent an Obama Presidency. This is not the time for lessons. One was taught in 2006 and Republicans in Congress, at least the House anyway, have learned the lesson taught. No more earmarks. But this is a Presidential year with the liberal party in power it is not a time where we give them the 3 most powerful positions in the world.
Let us not forget as well, that a President John McCain has promised to veto pork spending packages and to appoint Conservative judges to the bench. He has promised to appoint John Roberts and Sam Alito type Justices to the Supreme Court which would shift the balance to the Conservative side and perhaps Roe v Wade would get revisited for a reversal as the plaintiff in the case has asked. A President Obama would allow the pork spending to flow like Mexicans over the border and appoint Ginsburg style judges and Justices. Is that what we truly want? Then we must not get into the habit of teaching lessons on game day.
This was the feeble attempt by Michelle Obama to convince voters that they shouldn’t vote for McCain/Palin but rather Obama/Biden. Her theory? That the Obama ticket actually owns the issues and the McCain ticket only has a pretty face. Or at least that was the intent of the veiled warning.
In fairness, Obama covered her words [...]
The Drudge Report headline reads – “Philadelphia Columnist Warns: ‘If McCain wins, look for full-fledged race war’…” Oh yeah… That’s the way to put forth your candidate. Threaten a race war. That is a terrorist tactic if I’ve ever heard one. Threaten something bad if you don’t get your wish.
We also must consider the source [...]
