Obama, A Big Hit In The Arab World
As the days get closer, I can't help but to think our country is in for the fight of its life. Although the Presidential race is tightening, the possibility of Obama becoming President is still too high for me. Here is another bit of information you should consider. I ask each American to think about all the issues surrounding Obama and don't just vote for him because you hate Bush. Despite what Obama wants you to think, McCain is not another 4 years of Bush. Don't let Obama's lies sway you into voting for a Socialist America, destined for destruction. Vote for McCain/Palin next Tuesday... For your future and the future of America.
The following is from Newsmax - What does this tell you about Obama?
These factors have made Obama a big hit in the Arab world, where he has received wide praise, including:
The Syrian regime has indicated its preference for Obama. Buthaina Shaaban, an adviser to President Bashar al-Assad, has written: “The change suggested by Obama is essential not only for the U.S. but for the entire human family.”
Libyan leader Muammar al-Qaddafi called Obama “a Muslim” and said: “All the people in the Arab and Muslim world and in Africa applauded this man. They welcome him and prayed for his success,” although Qaddafi also expressed criticism of Obama’s comments on the future of Jerusalem.
Hamas political adviser Ahmed Yousef said this year: “We like Mr. Obama and we hope that he will win the election.”
Hezbollah’s second in command, Sheik Naim al-Kassim, urged Americans to vote for Obama as a step toward peace with Islam, and pro-Hezbollah columnist Amal Saad-Ghorayeb said there is “no doubt Arabs should welcome an Obama presidency,” according to Taheri.
In Saudi Arabia, commentator Hussein Shobokshi wrote that an Obama presidency “would mark an important moral transformation in the superpower and is a healthy indicator of the long-awaited improvement in the international arena.”
Some columnists also have noted Obama’s close ties to several Palestinian radicals, including Columbia University Prof. Rashid Khalidi — former communications director for the Palestinian Liberation Organization — and another Palestinian political activist, the late Edward Said.The “Arab street” also favors Obama. Recent surveys found that he is the preferred candidate in Egypt, Jordan, Morocco, Algeria, Syria, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates.
Just A Few Reasons Why I Will Not Vote For Obama
I think Obama is a slick talking politician who has an agenda for the US. That agenda is socialism and more corruption in Government. Look at his position on the Issues and combine that with a Democratic House and Senate. The Republicans may not even be able to muster a filibusterer. He will have no one to balance out his extream policies. Think about that and here are a few more things to consider. This man becoming President scares the shit out of me.
1. Obama is lying about Rev. Wright
2. Obama is friends with terrorist, William Ayres and Rashid Khalidi
3. Obama is a socialist.
4. Obama has values that are not mine or many American's.
5. Obama has even more radical friends who call for the murder of white people.
6. Obama is lying more and has a bigger hidden agenda.
I hope you will consider these issues and vote for McCain/Palin.
Cute or Creepy? - You Tell Me (Updated 5 Oct)
I just saw this on the Fox Web site and thought it was really creepy. It reminds me of those kids in Lebanon singing with the Jihad Mouse. What the hell is up with these people today and this feeling they have for Obama?
I just updated the 'really creepy" link above to a live link and also found this one. "Obama Youth Regiment" This shit is getting crazy....
Obama Attempts To Use The Truth Police!
We all know politicians lie and it is up to the American citizen to research through the BS of every candidate. I hate it with a passion that I have to research just about every comment that comes out of a politician's mouth. However, when the local law enforcement gets involved, then the issue becomes a little more unsettling. Just how far will the "truth police" go? Will they stop those stupid commercials on TV that peddle crap, "a $50.00 value for only $19.95"? No they will not, but it does appear that the Obama camp is trying to use law enforcement to strong arm some news agencies in St. Louis and and has threaten the TV and Radio Stations in Pennsylvania and Ohio for running what it calls false and misleading ads. If we're going to start running political ads through the "truth-o-meter", Obama may want to watch what the hell he says in his ads.
Governor Palin Was A Good Choice
There has been a lot discussion about McCain's recent pick for VP. Governor Sarah Palin from Alaska appears to have been very good choice to counter the Obama / Biden ticket. Although, contrary to some clueless political analysts on the social networks and blogs, this decision looks to have been very well calculated. In fact, according to a Newsmax article, "David E. Johnson, CEO of Strategic Vision, LLC predicted that Alaska Governor Sarah Palin would be McCain’s running mate in March 2007." Now for him to accurately predict this selection so far in advance, there must have been some solid indicators the other political analysts missed, or maybe Johnson would just give Sylvia Brown a run for her money. Seriously, Palin was a solid pick for McCain and brings a number of positive points to the Republican ticket. She has faced down the good old boy politics in Alaska and has made a significant impact on ethics reform. Her efforts to cut pork barrel spending resulted in saving over $400 million of tax payer dollars, earmarked for "The Bridge To Nowhere" . She also brings with her a solid conservative record and position that will help McCain with his base and hopefully with some undecided independents. I guess what I found interesting about her selection was summed up in the New York Post article by Kirsten Powers (A Democratic supporter). I think she did an excellent job outlining just what Gov. Palin on the McCain ticket is going to do to the Obama / Biden ticket. MCCAIN / PALIN IN 08!

Hey Obama! Get over it... I'll bet you will have all kinds of "cool pictures" of you before all this election stuff is over...


The Difference Between McCain, Clinton and Obama
I received this in an email and thought it was a simple, but interesting comparison of the candidates. Now I know you may say, "well Hillary is out", but really she is just circling above.
