Obama: Rev. Wright is ‘the BEST of What the Black Church has to Offer’
-By Warner Todd Huston
In a 1995 interview Obama we find out what he really thinks for his “spiritual mentor,” Reverend Jeremiah Wright. In that interview, Obama said Wright’s a “wonderful man” and said that he represents “the best of what the Black Church has to offer.”
Now, after Wright is seen screaming for God to “damn America” and now that Wright has become problematic, Obama throws him under the buss and the man Obama’s known and professed love and admiration for is suddenly “not the man he thought he knew”!
Which Obama is telling the truth, though. The one pandering for votes or the one that agrees that God should damn America?

All They Need is Love — Obama’s Record Doesn’t Matter To Many
-By Warner Todd Huston
There is little doubt that Barack Hussein Obama is an empty suit. You know it and I know it. In fact, I know it even better because I am from Illinois. I’ve watched Barack do practically nothing for an entire political career in State government, save vote on the extreme left every time he bothered to — which wasn’t too often. He has the worst absentee and “present” vote record of any Illinois politician.
But, when he did vote it was usually for two purposes. The first one was to follow the hard-left line, and the second to gather influential friends that would give him money.
He is well known, for instance, for his vote to withhold emergency care to babies who suffered the failed attempts of an abortion but were born anyway. The legislation called the “Born-Alive Act” in Illinois would have made it illegal to allow babies born in such horrid conditions to die of neglect. He did this because he felt there was a long-shot chance that the bill might be used to undermine abortion. This bipartisan bill had a lot of supporters, but Obama was not one of them. He has been a strong abortion advocate since day one. The man has a 100% rating from Planned Parenthood.

Guess What An Obama Halloween Costume Is? Yep, RACIST!
-By Warner Todd Huston
Well, last week we discovered that saying Obama is a socialist is racist code. For quite a while we’ve been told that saying his middle name is racist. Saying he pals around with terrorists is racist. Not voting for him is racist. Wanna know what else is racist? Dressing as Obama for Halloween…. but only if you’re a white kid. So says the Columbus Dispatch (Ohio), anyway.
This’ll break the hearts of little Obamatons and their sycophantic parents all across the nation for this Halloween season, sadly enough. But, if you don’t want to be considered a low-down, four-flushing racist, you little Obamites better not do it. Just say nO, kids. The Dispatch’s Kathy Lynn Gray has saved the day, though. She’s warned us ahead of time that Dressing like The One is racist as all get out.

Mock the Vote
-By David Heleniak
Jesse Ventura, when he’s not talking about 9-11, makes a lot of sense.
Describing the two party system to Larry King, he said: “[W]hat you have today is like walking into the grocery store and you go to the soft drink department, and there is only Pepsi and Coke. Those are the two you get to choose from. There is no Mountain Dew, no Root Beer, no Orange. They’re both Colas; one is slightly sweeter than the other, depending on which side of the aisle you are on.”
In an interview with Newsmax, he described politicians in the two party system as pro wrestlers. “In pro wrestling, out in front of the people, we make it look like we all hate each other and want to beat the crap out of each other, and that’s how we get your money, [and get you to] come down and buy tickets. They’re the same thing. Out in front of the public and the cameras, they hate each other, are going to beat the crap out of each other, but behind the scenes they’re all going to dinner, cutting deals. And [they’re] doing what we did, too — laughing all the way to the bank. And that to me is what you have today, in today’s political world, with these two parties.”

Governor Warns of Massive Vote Fraud in Missouri
-By Warner Todd Huston
A few days ago, Missouri Governor Matt Blunt issued a warning to the state that, contrary to recent claims, vote fraud was happening in Missouri.
Gov. Blunt reminded everyone that he’d became Sec. of State right after the 2000 election and investigated the massive fraud that happened in that election and he sees it all happening again, especially in St. Louis.
Contrary to assertions that voter fraud has not occurred in Missouri, my report found that well over 1,000 improper ballots were cast in St. Louis City and St. Louis County. Further my report found that there was in St. Louis an organized and successful effort to generate improper votes in large numbers.
And guess what organization Blunt found was responsible for vote fraud in 2006?

Ohio Vote Fraud: Obama Lawyer Threatening Bloggers
-By Warner Todd Huston
Greta Van Susteren had an interesting one the other day. Student journalists Tiffany Wilson and Shelby Holliday have been following and ably reporting on Ohio vote fraud issues for the student journalist site Palestra.net. (See their latest report)
The pair’s hottest story is the tale about a house full of out-of-state “voters” that have illegally registered to vote in Ohio. By their reporting, Wilson and Holliday have forced the Ohio Sec. of State to investigate and invalidate these fraudulent registrations.
Well, it seems that a lawyer with the Obama team has sent the girls a threatening letter warning them in ominous overtones that he’ll be watching them and that they better “watch what they say.”

Philly Inquirer: All Whites are Racists, ‘Shouldn’t be Allowed to Vote’
-By Warner Todd Huston
Did you know that all white people are so racist that they shouldn’t be allowed to vote? Did you know that people who are armed are stupid? Did you know that President Bush caused 9/11? Oh, and did you know that most of Pennsylvania is a “long dark chicken dance of the national soul”? Well, the Philadelphia Inquirer would like to school you in these “facts.” And, if you disagree? Well, who cares what you think anyway? You’re a gun loving, bitter racist, so who cares what you think? So proudly says PI columnist Jonathan Valania.
This is probably one of the most shocking, hate filled columns I’ve seen outside a KKK website, or the Communist Party Daily, for a long, long time. And that it comes from a leading national newspaper in one of our founding American cities, well, that makes it all the more outrageous. But right there in the Philly Inquirer we see it: “White people shouldn’t be allowed to vote.” And in case you are confused, the subhead brings it into sharper focus: “It’s for the good of the country and for those who’re bitter for a reason and armed because they’re scared.”
This unAmerican piece of elitist hectoring is brought to us in the name of “tolerance” and for the singular purpose to elect the most radically leftist candidate for president this nation has seen since Eugene Debbs and Norman Thomas.

MSNBC/AP say Player Injury Palin’s Fault
-By Warner Todd Huston
Well, that mean ol’ Sarah Palin ruined everything for the St. Louis Blues hockey team, darn it all. That’s right the media’s newest Cheney replacement must have been planning this monstrous attack on the Blues’ goalie for weeks. Her next trick: world domination. At least this seems to be how MSNBC and the Associated Press feel about it all.
What am I talking about? Well, Palin visited the Blues’ arena to see a game on October 24 and it seems that Blues goalie Manny Legace tripped on the carpet that the team laid on the ice so that Palin and her family could walk safely out to address the crowd. Because of that injury, the AP and MSNBC both decided that this accident was all Palin’s fault. Really.
Right on the MSNBC homepage is a link to the story in the sports section and on that homepage the story is headlined “Goalie’s injury linked to Palin’s puck drop.” (see screen shot below) It’s as if Palin’s “puck drop” caused the injury. Though, one easily gets the feeling that the situation is closer to an outbreak of PDS (Palin Derangement Syndrome).

Union Chief Forced Charity Employees to do Political Work
-By Warner Todd Huston
It the investigation into the corruption of Calif. SEIU head Tyrone Freeman keeps getting better… well, actually worse. Now it is being revealed that Service Employees International Union chief Freeman regularly forced employees of a charity he headed to do political hack work — a practice barred by law.
Six people who worked for either the union or the charity told The Times that Freeman, and others at the labor organization acting on his behalf, ordered the nonprofit’s staffers to join partisan get-out-the-vote drives and other campaign efforts during and after their regular hours. The former employees spoke on condition of anonymity because they feared retaliation and legal jeopardy.
The former workers say that employees were required to distribute fliers, walk precincts and staff phone banks for individual candidates and the Democratic ticket during the days leading up to primary and general elections.
Naturally, Freeman is giving that innocent look of “what, me?” He is denying all allegations despite the several workers and other witnesses saying the opposite.
Like the old saying goes, deny, deny, deny.

Scariest Jerk-O-Lantern in the Nation
-By Warner Todd Huston
Steve Summers dropped us a line to let us know that he was inspired by one of our graphics on Publius’ Forum.
It’s the Halloween season and all sorts of goblins and scary creatures of the night abound and Steve has carved the scariest creature he can imagine onto HIS punkin this year.
Notice the cool little death’s head Obama logo on his lapel! Just like our image!
Good work, Steve. But, I sure hope it doesn’t scare the kiddies too much. Halloween is supposed to be fun, not truly terrifying!
Brides from a War Long Ago
-By John Armor
This weekend I joined a new family. The members of this family speak fluent German, French, Italian, Polish, Russian. They also speak fluent Chinese, Japanese, Tagalog. And they speak English in the accents of at least five different nations. Lastly, the heart of this family is a group of women who are all at least eighty years old.
As I write this, I’m at the annual reunion of the WW II War Brides Association. The children of war brides and their spouses are also welcome here. But the raison d’etre is the women, like my mother-in-law, who was raised in Paris, married an American soldiers right after the end of WW II, and came to the United States to live.
A large number of the war brides are from England, for a logical reason. The G.I.s spent more time in that country, preparing and staging for the invasions of North Africa, Italy, and finally France, then they spent on the ground anywhere else. A large number are also from Australia, since G.I.s staged there for the attacks “up the islands,” as they say, from the Philippines to Japan.

The Terrorist Attack of 2010
-By Selwyn Duke
The date is November 9, 2010, and you turn on the radio to listen to the news over morning coffee. Economic times have been tough, and you’re not expecting much to uplift the soul. Yet, what you hear still makes your blood run cold.
Nuclear devices have been detonated almost simultaneously in New York City, Chicago and Los Angeles. Tens of thousands are dead or dying, and millions more are being evacuated, owing to radioactive contamination that will now make huge swaths of the cities uninhabitable.
President Obama is currently on the air addressing the nation. Everything he says sounds reassuring and mellifluous, just like it always does, just like it always has. Right now he is talking about the emergency response and government efforts to help the victims and apprehend the perpetrators. He speaks of how we must pray for our fellow Americans.
More information will be forthcoming, and we will see his calm countenance on TV and hear his resonant, composed voice again. Of that you can be sure.
But there is something he won’t tell us.
There is something he will never tell us.

2001 Obama Interview: Wanted Socialism, to Break Free of Constitution
-By Warner Todd Huston
In an interview with Chicago’s WBEZ radio in 2001, Barack Obama laid out his true socialist desires. In the interview, Obama says that the Civil Rights movement didn’t succeed because it didn’t win to “redistribute the wealth.” He says the Supreme Court under Warren failed because it didn’t break free of the Constitution!
Barack Obama wants to institute communism and wants to eliminate the Constitution of the United States. Is THIS the man you want for president? this man is no Democrat. He’s a traitor to the most important ideas of our nation.
Ayers Said Everyone Knew He was a Marxist
-By Warner Todd Huston
During the very same week that William Ayers was siting on a board with Barack Obama Ayers gave a radio interview where he said that everyone in Chicago knew he was a Marxist. Ayers also said once again, as he has many times, that he is not sorry for his monstrous terrorist actions.
THIS is the unAmerican scumbag that Barack Obama associates closely with.
Pew: McCain Gets Far More Negative Coverage From Media
-By Warner Todd Huston
As if we didn’t know already by the evidence of the left-wing media establishment’s work, Pew Research unveiled a new survey that showed that John McCain has been on the receiving end of “heavily unfavorable” coverage. In fact, according to Pew, McCain’s media coverage has become more negative over time with unfavorable stories about him outweighing favorable ones “by a factor of more than three-to-one.” Pew finds that McCain’s negative stories are the highest from among all four major candidates.
First of all, we should remember that the Pew survey was drawn from news coverage — opinion pieces were not included. So, if we were to add all the opinion editorials emanating from the Old Media, the unfavorables for McCain and Palin would soar to unprecedented heights. But, Op-Eds aside and with the fact that we are talking “news,” it is still amazing to note the highly negative tone leveled at McCain.
Pew found that, for McCain “nearly six-in-ten stories studied were decidedly negative in nature (57%), while fewer than two-in-ten (14%) were positive.”

Obama’s Terrorist Friend Wanted to Kill 25 Million Americans
Ayers and his Weatherman associates said that 25 million Americans that refused Ayers’ ideas would have to be “eliminated” if their plans to take over the USA succeeded.
Do Americans Understand What Socialism Is?
-By Frank Salvato
Barack Obama’s short but illuminating conversation with Samuel “Joe the Plumber” Wurzelbacher has ushered the subject of Socialism to center stage. By stating that he champions an economic policy that would “spread the wealth around,” Senator Obama alarmed many Americans who recognize the parallels between his statement and one espoused by French Socialist Louis Blanc in 1840:
“From each according to his ability, to each according to his needs!”
In defense of his statement, Obama, his campaign and his massive army of Obamabot surrogates have come out hard against those who are making the correlation between the Obama economic agenda and the Marxist economic model.
During a campaign stop in Richmond, Virginia, Obama scoffed at the charge that his economic policies were born of Socialist ideology and the Marxist influence predominant among the adults who surrounded him in his youth, calling the use of such “implausible” arguments an, “indication they have run out of ideas.”

Birds of a feather Barack together
-By Michael M. Bates
An ABC News/Washington Post poll shows more than half the respondents don’t think Barack Obama’s association with unrepentant 60s terrorist William Ayers is a legitimate issue. It’s old news. Such reasoning suggests that in about 30 years Obama can serve on boards with bin Laden, visit Osama’s home and take political contributions from him, just as he’s done with Ayers. After all, that 9/11 stuff will be old news by then.
Offering no basis for his assumption, Obama says he “assumed that (Ayers) had been rehabilitated.” Yet in Ayers’s 2001 book he wrote that he can’t quite imagine bombing a building today, “but I can’t imagine entirely dismissing the possibility either.”
Then there’s the lovely Mrs. Ayers, Bernadine Dohrn. It was, let it not be overlooked, also in her living room that candidate Obama had his political coming out in 1995. Dohrn saluted Charles Manson after a 1969 killing spree in which pregnant actress Sharon Tate was stabbed with a fork:

Ohioans Against Vote Fraud
Welcome to the Voter Integrity Project’s Operation Stop Ohio Vote Fraud
We all know of the massive fraud that certain groups are perpetrating during this election cycle. There is great concern this year over the many millions of fake voter registrations being foisted upon Secretary of State offices nation wide by groups such as ACORN and sponsored by the Democrats. It’s obvious they are trying to steal this election.
To shine the light of truth on these illegal efforts the Voter Integrity Project was launched in October of this year. Our goal is to seek out and highlight voter fraud throughout the country in a concerted effort to defeat fraud and abuse.
Along with the Voter Fraud Squad and the Wiki site ballotpedia.org, we hope this project makes a difference.
Operation Stop Ohio Vote Fraud is a collective community of Ohio bloggers gathered together to halt these practices that threaten to destroy our American system.
If YOU are an Ohio blogger that would like to help, register here, leave a comment that you’d like to join, and then I’ll set you up as a writer on this site.

Boston Paper: John McCain Will be a Dictator?
By- Warner Todd Huston
Someone at The Phoenix, a small Boston weekly, is off his medication. It’s hard to believe sanity is a familiar state, at least, when reviewing the silliness passed off as serious political analysis, anyway. For the lead editorial in The Phoenix this week is a fantastic display of hyperbole filled with “truther” propensities. The editorial, you see, is all worried that John McCain will make himself a “dictator” if he wins the election next month. No, they are serious, so quit laughing.
And how is it that he will become a “dictator”? Why, it’s because he will be able to appoint a new Supreme Court Justice, you see. Yes, that is the only proof posited for this idiotic theory.
The “argument” this editorial pushes on an unsuspecting reader is that if McCain appoints another eeeevil conservative Justice, then the Courts will turn over all the power in the land to the president. After that, I suppose the writer of this schlock posing as analysis imagines that the rest of the government will just turn off the lights and go home, or something.

Chgo Trib: ‘Higher’ Home Foreclosures Report Ignores Most Paying Mortgages Just Fine
-By Warner Todd Huston
This is the kind of sensationalistic reporting that just makes all “news” agencies look like scaremongers. A recent Chicago Tribune report on homes in foreclosure in Illinois focuses on “higher” rates and says alarming things like, “Illinois foreclosures were up 49.55 percent.” These numbers the Trib bandies about seem shocking. Up 49.55 percent? WOW! But this same report doesn’t quite report the whole truth. The fact is that 9 some percent of Illinois homeowners are paying their mortgages just fine and are not in foreclosure. With a 90 some percent success rate, these “higher” rates of foreclosures seems to be no story at all.
At least the headline is honest — for a change. The brief report is titled “1 in 510 Illinois homes in foreclosure.” One in five hundred is a drop in the bucket, it is sure. But, the story itself seems to try for sensationalistic, scare numbers instead of fully fleshing out the factual news here.
Mandating a Perfect World
-By Thomas E. Brewton
Liberal-progressives’ conception of social justice always requires the political state forcibly to impose some form of equality.
Social justice, in the catechism of the socialist religion, is no more than an exertion of raw power to force people to conform to what liberal-progressives believe conditions ought to be.
Forced equality was the mode in the world’s first socialist political state, Revolutionary France. After the 1789 Revolution, France was reeling under wild swings from monarchy, to attempts at constitutional government, to the rule of street mobs. Matters came to a head with the execution of King Louis XVI in January, 1793. The Assembly’s Revolutionary Tribunal and the Committee of Public Safety announced, “It is wholly necessary to establish briefly the despotism of freedom in order to crush the despotisms of Kings.” (quoted in André Maurois, A History of France).
What “the despotism of freedom” meant was the bloody Reign of Terror. The Revolutionary Tribunal, during fourteen months of continuous sessions, condemned thousands of people to the guillotine as purported enemies of the Revolution. Altogether, more than 70,000 French citizens – men, women, children of all ages – were murdered in the name of Freedom, Equality and Brotherhood.

The Hidden Costs of Voting Early
-By Nancy Salvato
Voting early in the presidential election? Seems like a great idea to many Americans.
For folks who have done their homework and believe themselves absolutely certain that their mind is made up about who they want to win an election, there is probably nothing to lose. For the person who reads all the information available regarding each of the candidates, even an October surprise will likely not come as a surprise. Rather, it will probably validate his or her existing beliefs about who should be our next president.
“More than 100,000 people cast their ballots in the first week of early voting in Chicago and suburban Cook County that began Oct. 13.” [1]
It is guaranteed there will be countless more numbers of folks heading to the polls when it’s most convenient for them.

Wendi C. Thomas Indulges Her Inner Racist
-By Warner Todd Huston
Wendi C. Thomas, a black journalist that has written for such media outlets as the Charlotte Observer, the Indianapolis Star and the Nashville Tennessean, was recently asked by what she called a “white man in Memphis” if blacks would riot if Barack Obama should lose the upcoming general election. The question made her angry, and I can’t blame her for that anger. But, after a brief flash of sanity, Thomas turned the tables and went on to decide that it will be whites, rather, that will riot if Obama wins, not blacks if he loses.
At first Thomas had the absolute right answer for that “white man from Memphis.” She wrote at TheRoot.com that ascribing to “blacks” the actions of rioting from some blacks is not a logical exercise. Even if some blacks rioted after an Obama loss, it is illegitimate to decide that all 40 million blacks in America would agree with that lawlessness. Who could disagree with this sensible comment?

AP Links Assault on Reporter to Appearance in Bush Movie… BDS Strikes Again
-By Warner Todd Huston
An Arkansas TV reporter that had a bit part in Oliver Stone’s movie “W” was found beaten unconscious in her Little Rock home on October 20 and in its report on the crime the Associated Press seemed to decide that she was beaten merely because she had appeared in the movie though this impression the AP seems to have is not supported by the police. One wonders why the AP decided to spend almost half its story focusing on her movie role when reporting this crime? Is the AP trying to say her connection with George W. Bush got her attacked? It sure seems like the AP is seized by another bout of Bush Derangement Syndrome with its unnecessary emphasis on this reporter’s film role.
The APs obsession with the victim’s movie role was odd, indeed. Even in its first few lines the AP ties KATV anchor Ann Pressly to her movie work saying in its first sentence that she “had a small part in the Bush biopic ‘W.'” The AP takes pains to point out that in the movie, Pressly “speaks favorably of President Bush’s ‘Mission Accomplished’ event on an aircraft carrier shortly after the start of the Iraq war.” The report speaks about how she won the role in the film and then adds this odd sentence:
Spokeswoman Kate Hubin for the film company Lionsgate confirmed Pressly’s role but declined to comment further.
Why did we need to have Pressly’s role “confirmed”? Why would the AP imagine that Lionsgate films had anything useful to add to a report on this crime?

America Will Weep
-By Marie Jon’
When all is said and done, if Sen. Barack Obama becomes President of the United States, I for one will not be celebrating. I know the real Obama; he is America’s enemy, along with the party which has been bought and paid for by men like George Soros. He and other Socialist/Communist sympathizers hide themselves within the once honorable Democrat Party.
The specter of an Obama administration is foreboding. He is an odious person who wants to throw our country into Socialism. He is not apologetic for the truths he has hidden from us. Obama brings with him far left cronies and policies and seeks to usher in a new era of history hardly befitting an American president no matter what his race, creed or color.
America is on its way to becoming radicalized, infused with the philosophy and thoughts gleaned from Obama’s many anti-American friends. The unrepentant terrorist professor, William Ayers, whose dreams will be fulfilled in an Obama administration, is but one of these. Many of our youth will become foot solders filled with anti-American thoughts. Our public schools and higher learning institutions have become bastions of far left ideology. Patriotism is no longer taught. However, unionized teachers see fit to wear Obama political pins in the classrooms.
