This came in an email unfortunately as all caps. It raises some questions that are legitimate and some that are marginal. Overall it illustrates the absolute idiocy of Obama as a candidate as well as anyone supporting the man.

DO I HAVE THIS STRAIGHT?

HIS FATHER WAS A BLACK AFRICAN ARAB MUSLIM FROM KENYA. WE HAVE SEEN PICTURES OF HIS AFRICAN FAMILY.

HIS MOTHER WAS A WHITE AMERICAN ATHEIST FROM KANSAS.
WHERE ARE THE PICTURES OF HIS AMERICAN FAMILY?

HIS FATHER DESERTED HIS MOTHER WHEN HE WAS ONLY TWO YEARS OLD AND WENT BACK TO AFRICA BY WAY OF HARVARD UNIVERSITY. HOW? WAS HIS FATHER WEALTHY?

HIS MOTHER MARRIED AN INDONESIAN MUSLIM AND THEN MOVED TO JAKARTA WHERE HE WAS ENROLLED IN A MUSLIM SCHOOL

WHEN HE REACHED HIGH SCHOOL AGE HIS MOTHER SENT HIM TO HAWAII TO BE WITH HIS WHITE GRANDPARENTS AND HE WAS PUT INTO AN EXPENSIVE PRIVATE SCHOOL. HE LATER WENT TO HARVARD UNIVERSITY. HOW? WERE HIS GRANDPARENTS RICH?

HE LIVES IN A $1.4 MILLION HOUSE OBTAINED THROUGH A DEAL WITH A WEALTHY FUNDRAISER. HOW?

HE 'WORKED' AS A CIVIL RIGHTS ACTIVIST IN CHICAGO. HE HAS NEVER HELD A PRODUCTIVE JOB OR RECEIVED A PAY CHECK THAT WAS NOT GOVERNMENT-FUNDED AND/OR TAYPAYER SUPPORTED.

THE PRESIDENCY IS NOT A CIVIL RIGHTS POSITION, NOR IS IT SUBJECT TO AFFIRMATIVE ACTION SET ASIDES; ON-THE-JOB TRAINING WON'T CUT IT.

HE ENTERED POLITICS AT THE STATE LEVEL AND THEN THE NATIONAL LEVEL WHERE HE HAS MINIMAL EXPERIENCE.

HE IS PROUD OF HIS 'AFRICAN HERITAGE' (A FATHER WHO GOT A WHITE GIRL PREGNANT AND DESERTED HER).

WHERE IS THE PRIDE IN HIS 'WHITE HERITAGE'? (A MOTHER WHO FLAUNTED CONVENTION AND DID NOT BELIEVE IN GOD).

SOME MIGHT THINK THERE WAS NOT MUCH TO BE PROUD OF EITHER WAY.

HE BELONGS, AND HAS BELONGED FOR OVER 20 YEARS, TO AN 'AFRO-CENTRIC' CHURCH IN CHICAGO THAT HATES WHITES, HATES JEWS, AND BLAMES AMERICA FOR ALL THE WORLD'S PERCEIVED FAULTS. (INCLUDING CREATING THE AIDs VIRUS IN ORDER TO INFLICT IT ON AFRICANS).

HE REPEATEDLY WHITEWASHES THE PASTOR, HIS CHURCH AND THE MEMBERS WHO CHEERED AFTER HEARING VITRIOLIC TIRADES AGAINST AMERICA.

HE COULD NOT CONFRONT HIS PASTOR BUT HE WANTS US TO BELIEVE HE CAN CONFRONT NORTH KOREA AND IRAN ?

YEAH RIGHT ! !

DURING HIS VERY BRIEF TIME IN THE UNITED STATES SENATE HE HAS MANAGED TO AMASS THE NUMBER ONE ......ULTRA LIBERAL ......VOTING RECORD OUT OF THE 'ONE HUNDRED MEMBERS.'

HE HAS VOTED CONSISTENTLY FOR BIGGER GOVERNMENT AND HIGHER TAXES. HE HAS VOTED FOR BIG ENTITLEMENTS AND LEGISLATION THAT WOULD SEVERELY CURTAIL AMERICA'S ABILITY TO FIGHT TERRORISM AND TO PROTECT OUR BORDERS AND OUR NATIONAL INTERESTS AROUND THE WORLD.

BUT, HE IS A GOOD ORATOR. ISN'T THAT A COMFORT?

YEAH, I THINK I SEE HOW WELL HE COULD UNITE THE COUNTRY.

I THINK THE TRUTH IS THAT HE HOPES NO ONE WILL PUT THE PIECES TOGETHER.

LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, LET ME INTRODUCE YOU TO OUR NEW CHIEF PILOT. HE HAS NEVER FLOWN AN AIRPLANE, IN FACT HE HAS NEVER EVEN SAT IN THE ****PIT, BUT HE SAYS HE HAS RIDDEN ON PLANES BEFORE. HE KNOWS NOTHING ABOUT RADAR, OR HOW TO START THE ENGINES,OR HOW TO STOP THEM,OR ANYTHING ABOUT ALL THESE GADGETS, BUT WE ARE SURE HE WILL GUIDE US SAFELY THROUGH THE STORMS WE MAY ENCOUNTER ON THIS FLIGHT BECAUSE HE TOLD US HE COULD DO IT.

PEOPLE WHAT ARE YOU THINKING? HAVE YOU NEVER HEARD THE STORY ABOUT THE WOLF HIDING IN SHEEP'S CLOTHING SO HE CAN DESTROY THEM FROM WITHIN ? THE HAND WRITING IS ON THE WALL, DO YOU NOT HAVE EYES TO SEE ?!

THINK LONG AND HARD BEFORE YOU VOTE FOR THIS GUY!

Leo,
I find trying to convince some of these people to vote for McCain over obama is getting useless.

Today Obama is in my area with ALGORE and the Detroit News said that ALGORE is the most popular democrat right now but he is endorsing Obama, which means that he will get his cap and trade cr*p passed and we will all suffer.

I also read Obama's economic plan, he is going to bring back the tax brackets of the Clinton administration, which means we will go back to the seven instead of five. but I haven't seen it form his camp but the rumor is that he wants to get passed a forward looking tax program on investments. The Clinton's wanted this passed but it failed, basically it is an estimated tax on your cap gains, so this will no doubt raise taxes for us, the poor rich working class.

I just don't get people?

This message has been brought you by Truckers for sane government and by the McCain for president so we don't have a communist for president - both an unregistered 527.

I am not disputing the Obama - McCain comments....

I don't get how us peons have to worry about cap gains? We don't have a pot to pee in, most of us anyhow...Show me the gains...

BTW...I never have really liked OBama...wouldn't vote for him...he reminds me of a speaker at an Amway Convention!!

OVM, what you need to focus on is not whether you have any cap gains today but will you have them in the future? Additionally, if investments are taxed excessively there will be no investments and that will definitely affect you adversely. Taxing individuals on anything other than consumption is totally foolish and stupid.

Al Gore isnt as popular as some think. I assume you know this. But, how could Gore be that popular among those "who know"? After all, Gore couldnt even carry his own home state of Tennessee in the 2000 election...

Not sure what it is, but the deductible isn't that high here.

Leo took the words out of my mouth... if you don't plan on becoming rich, then just continue to be jealous of them. I plan on being rich, eventually; so I vote for the more conservative candidate.

Why does it take being well off before ppl begin to believe in how the Constitution was actually written? Sorry, but I don't believe Leo, OVM, or anyone else owes me anything. And when ppl believe the government owes them this or that entitlement, that's what they're saying: OVM... you owe me for my healthcare. Leo... you owe me for my being stupid and having eight kids out of wedlock. How hard working ppl don't resent that, I don't know.

If he's the most popular Democrat, then all that tells me is that the Dems aren't that popular. Having said that, the Republicans are even less so. Mister, we could use a man like Ronald Reagan again.

T-Hawk,
You have eight kids? wow how'd you pull that one off :)

OVM, the cap gains tax is not just about the rich making money, it is about the old lady who is selling her house after living in it for 60 years or the couple's small investment program they created to put some money away.

Obama and the rest of the Che leftest want to tax the rich and continue down the path of class warfare, which is not where we really need to go at this time. In the past, like the 30's when you have such a discrepancy between the middle class, the poor and the rich, it may have been a concept that was good to sell to people who had no other means but reading some of the comments today from these auto workers in Flint, they are typical give me I deserve people who will vote for someone who say I will take care of you just like the unions did.

The dems may win with these stupid people, like in Michigan where they are all pointing fingers at each other in detroit over the mayor and the attempted removal. The latest is asking God to come down and bless the city, forgive them and the mayor, which not only offends me, but makes a mockery out of the entire state.

Well be prepared, the ones who are actually grossing more than $50k will be the ones hit too. I think Obama will try to figure out how to propose adding a tax on assets owned and other taxes with the co2 emissions that we create in the course of our work. Oh and be prepared because the cap and trade bill will be passed next year and we will see anywhere from a $1.50 to $2 a gallon increase immediately.

I dont know... I am not one to put a lot of stock in polls, but most say the Repubs are neck and neck with these agents of "change". Remember the 04 election and how CNN handled things? They made every attempt to convince the American people Kerry had the election in the bag! Things havent changed since then. They are still doing their thing and attempting to steal another election through misinformation. The Repubs and conservatives in general are usually less vocal than I am. lol :) So, measuring their popularity isnt that easy to do.

But, on your last point...I also think we need another Ronald Reagan. IMO...he was one of the best Presidents we ever had. Not because he had all the answers. But, because he knew lots of people who did and gave them a job in his administration.

Well I see it a bit different.

The repubs put up a weak candidate because they are so messed up, they are still living in 2000. We can't afford Obama but they seem to be of the mindset that they will win in 2012 if McCain loses, which will not be the case. They still have not put up a strong front with McCain, they are seriously stammered in congress with people ignoring the party completely and they are hoping that they can filibuster in the senate.

The dems on the other hand are funded by Soros who also holds the media in his hands. He also funds the fringe kook base and things like the Daily Kos, Che's place and Media Matters. The dems also fixed the primaries by screwing the people who actually thought they were voting by adding sub delegates and super delegates and super duper delegates that all dilute the process and skew it to any way the party leadership wants it to go.

I honestly think that obama will get in and this country will be turned upside down and we can kiss what we love about it goodbye.

Well,there you go.Just proves that not everyone who attends an Ivy League and has Presidential dreams needs to turn out to be w. I'm so glad you posted this anti Bush pro Obama piece. It's so clear that Mr. Obama was NOT a cheerleader at his Ivy league(your peice forgot to mention he graduated in top 2 percent of his law school class)and was heavely recruited by Wall Street. He chose to go back to Chicago and represent the POOR people Leo (yes Leo,somebody has to do it) and not take faulty finanacing from the bin Laden family for rigged oil and gas business's (w).The Bush's have been kissing Saudi (bin Laden ) *** for longer then we have memories. Yet you fully approve of this very cozy relationship.

Leo,my hats off to you for once again stooping to yet another low point in this debate over ISSUES (like young death and tax's) and ,never mind,you have no clue. Thanks for circulating this hate filled piece of rasicst garbage. It's just you and a few others that would find this enlightning, thank God. Back under the rock now Leo.

Yes, he's representing the poor from his $1.4 Million dollar home. He's representing them by advocating a huge tax increase they can't afford. He's representing them by pushing for equal or perhaps superior rights for the illegals than the legal citizen poor. He's representing them by refusing to consider any real solution to the energy problem. He's representing them by wanting to throw $13 Billion dollars at all sorts of pie in the sky "alternative" energy "solutions" that are decades away from easing anything much less solving it. He and his "change" have worked wonders in the last 2 years with Pelosi/Kennedy et al leading the "change" parade. I'm thrilled with the "change" we've seen and can hardly stand the wait for the "change" to come. Yes, I'm under a rock hiding from the Obama folks whose rocks are in their heads.

Tallcal,
You know I was listening to a bunch of dems today who are going to vote for McCain. McCain of all people... McCain who I can't stand but I can't bring myself to vote for anyone like Obama.

I can't vote for him not because I am racist, but because I am told if I don't, I am. In today's world I am racist because I do believe in Rev King's idea that we can't look at the person's color or race, which is we should not or even maybe not look at a persons color or race, but CAN'T. The Dems, the group for the people who preach equality they have not come to any milestone in their party on this issue but being true racists themselves by constantly defining what is racism and in this election using it as a tool to invoke fear into people to get to vote for Obama.

Sorry Tallcal, reality is they, the good ol' dems have been the party of Jim Crow and keeping people down for a long long time. We have had how many presidents who refused to do anything constructive to bring equality to the country... Oh .... wait.... I mean how many presidents that failed to do anything to make my fellow citizen my equal who were democrats? I can think of two in one hundred years, only two..... amazing that Nixon did more for race relations in his one and a what ever term, then JFK, FDR, Wilson, Clinton, and that pathetic old man Carter did in all of theirs (remember Wilson was a real racist, he supported a lot of what the south was doing and the lynchings in the north, well they didn't happen). Under Nixon there were things that went on that people ignore (check out the books that came out last year from Harvard Publishing and Yale on the subject), they don't give the man credit because of the HATE, typical democrat HATE. The funny thing, the same thing happened under Bush this time around, we saw some gains in minorities, so what happened under Clinton? Carter? How about FDR? Truman?

But as I listened to these dems today, I could not believe the stuff they were saying and when they mentioned the sources and where on the web to find it, I looked. Some was on the DNC site, there was some on Huffington post, some over on the Daily Kos, a couple things over on the WP and NYTs.

Interesting that a lot of things cover up the facts and more lies from the left with such hatred and contempt shown for the president, which brings me to a thought that they are copying another election strategy.

ALL THIS cr*p was done in 1930's in Germany for God's sake, the same style of lies, deceit and propaganda that led Hitler to power is leading Obama to the presidency. Hitler wasn't prepared for this, and by comparison Obama is the same poor choice as a leader as Hitler was. Sorry again TallCal, this came from one of the Dems that jump ship and will vote for McCain.

Too many can see something rather sad, even to a lot of democrats, there is very little difference between the National Socialist Workers Party of Germany and the Democrat party of the United States today. The dems are starting down the road speaking like Fascist, talking about taxing profits, refusing to help the people by creating more of a energy crisis, shifting the blame for credit/money problems onto others to cover up the truth and so on, all preparing the country to get the 'reforms' or the 'change' that they feel is needed to accomplish their goals.

Do we really need change outside of the congress being changed? I don't think we need to have a national health care system, or having our oil companies be taxed more, or having Cap and Trade, or being lied to why country wide was given a lot of breaks, should I go on?

As for Obama, his people, the dems and even the UN have been clear, if you oppose him, you have to be racist. The UN is investigating if we, the United States is going to permit any racism in the election. Already there is talk from the Obama camp about racism from the voters who they were soliciting.

As for the man himself, he is led by the nose by a militant wife who holds the country in contempt, he has no experience in any regards of leadership, he has no background to show what he actually has done, he is associated with a terrorist, he has been involved with crooks and people who hijack religion for more racism. We can't even talk about his wife, 'lay off my wife' - well tell her to go back and make cookies, otherwise she is fair game as much as Chelsea has been in the press (the liberal press that is).

Interesting report on the radio today about the Obama Detroit rally. Seems seats were not assigned ahead of time. Seems the Obama Detroit team forced two women off the riser behind the stage so they wouldn't be in the camera line and shown on tv. Two Muslim women. In their burkhas. Can't be seen showing tolerance for all now can we? Oh, and they also made an Asian woman move. Oh, almost forgot, they also were heard more than once saying "get more white people". Yeah, that's the kind of blind eye I want in charge.

The main issue facing this country is which one of these candidates is the most qualified to be President. I'll be the first to admit that these are the two weakest choices since at least 1972, but responsible citizens have to pull the lever for one or the other. To try to claim that Obama is qualified to be president because he represented poor people in Chicago and was recruited by some Wall St. firms is simply ridiculous. However, getting back to the original post: exactly what in this post is not factual? It is not out of bounds or "sinking to a low point" in pointing out certain facts about his background, his questionable associations and his radical left-wing voting records. This all relates to his character and judgement, and these are extremely important issues. All this gives us an indication as to what kind of people he would choose to fill cabinet positions and other important offices - and the types of people with whom he has associated in the past seem to mostly be left wing radicals and racist hate-mongers. Combine this with an apparent total lack of expertise on economic matters and foreign policy issues and you have the least qualified presidential candidate ever offered by a major party. McCain is certainly no top-tier candidate, but he's vastly more qualified for the office than Barack Hussein Obama.
