Obama's Not Exactly's

HT to Liberty Card.

Just so you'll know what you're getting with a President B-HO. If you think things are better in this country as a result of Slick Willy's administration, with all his lies and demagoguery, just imagine B-HO as Clinton Squared.

I just imagine the sick, the lame, the lazy, in short the whole liberatti, all woodying up over the prospect. So, sit it out, work for it to happen by opposing Clinton Lite, and spend the next four years assuming the position....

The Not Exactly's

1.) Selma Got Me Born - NOT EXACTLY, your parents felt safe enough to have
you in 1961 - Selma had no effect on your birth, as Selma was in 1965.
(Google 'Obama Selma' for his full March 4, 2007 speech and articles about
its various untruths.)

2.) Father Was A Goat Herder - NOT EXACTLY, he was a privileged, well
educated youth, who went on to work with the Kenyan Government.

3.) Father Was A Proud Freedom Fighter - NOT EXACTLY, he was part of one
of the most corrupt and violent governments Kenya has ever had.

4.) My Family Has Strong Ties To African Freedom - NOT EXACTLY, your
cousin Raila Odinga has created mass violence in attempting to overturn a
legitimate election in 2007, in Kenya. It is the first widespread violence
in decades. The current government is pro-American but Odinga wants to
overthrow it and establish Muslim Sharia law. Your half-brother, Abongo
Obama, is Odinga's follower. You interrupted your New Hampshire
campaigning to speak to Odinga on the phone. Check out the following link
for verification of that....and for more.

Obama's cousin Odinga in Kenya ran for president and tried to get Sharia
Muslim law in place there. When Odinga lost the elections, his followers
have burned Christians' homes and then burned men, women and children
alive in a Christian church where they took she lter.. Obama SUPPORTED his
cousin before the election process here started. Google Obama and Odinga
and see what you get. No one wants to know the truth.

5.) My Grandmother Has Always Been A Christian - NOT EXACTLY, she does her
daily Salat prayers at 5am according to her own interviews. Not to
mention, Christianity wouldn't allow her to have been one of 14 wives to
1 man.

6.) My Name is African Swahili - NOT EXACTLY, your name is Arabic and
'Baraka' (from which Barack came) means 'blessed' in that language.
Hussein is also Arabic and so is Obama.

Barack Hussein Obama is not half black. If elected, he would be the first
Arab-American President, not the first black President. Barack Hussein
Obama is 50% Caucasian from his mother's side and 43.75% Arabic and 6.25%
African Negro from his father's side. While Barack Hussein Obama's father
was from Kenya, his father's family was mainly Arabs. Barack Hussein
Obama's father was only 12.5% African Negro and 87.5% Arab (his father's
birth certificate even states he's Arab, not African Negro). From...and
for more....go to.....

Barak Hussein Obama-Arab American.

7.) I Never Practiced Islam - NOT EXACTLY, you practiced it daily at
school, where you were registered as a Muslim and kept that faith for 31
years, until your wife made you change, so you could run for office.

4-3-08 Article 'Obama was 'quite religious in Islam

8.) My School In Indonesia Was Christian - NOT EXACTLY, you were
registered as Muslim there and got in trouble in Koranic Studies for
making faces (check your own book).

February 28, 2008. Kristoff from the New York Times a year ago: Mr. Obama
recalled the opening lines of the Arabic call to prayer, reciting them
with a first-rate accent. In a remark that seemed delightfully
uncalculated (it'll give Alabama voters heart attacks), Mr. Obama
described the call to prayer as 'one of the prettiest sounds on Earth at
sunset.' This is just one example of what Pamela is talking about when she
says 'Obama's narrative is being altered, enhanced and manipulated to
whitewash troubling facts.'

9.) I Was Fluent In Indonesian - NOT EXACTLY, not one teacher says you
could speak the language.

10.) Because I Lived In Indonesia, I Have More Foreign Experience - NOT
EXACTLY, you were there from the ages of 6 to 10, and couldn't even speak
the language. What did you learn, how to study the Koran and watch
cartoons.

11.) I Am Stronger On Foreign Affairs - NOT EXACTLY, except for Africa
(surprise) and the Middle East (bigger surprise), you have never been
anywhere else on the planet and thus have NO experience with our closest
allies.

12.) I Blame My Early Drug Use On Ethnic Confusion - NOT EXACTLY, you were
quite content in high school to be Barry Obama, no mention of Kenya and
no mention of struggle to identify - your classmates said you were just
fine.

13.) An Ebony Article Moved Me To Run For Office - NOT EXACTLY, Ebony has
yet to find the article you mention in your book. It doesn't, and never
did, exist.

14.) A Life Magazine Article Changed My Outlook On Life - NOT EXACTLY,
Life has yet to find the article you mention in your book. It doesn't, and
never did, exist.

15.) I Won't Run On A National Ticket In '08 - NOT EXACTLY, here you are,
despite saying, live on TV, that you would not have enough experience by
then, and you are all about having experience first.

16.) Voting 'Present' is Common In Illinois Senate - NOT EXACTLY, they are
common for YOU, but not many others have 130 NO VOTES.

17.) Oops, I Misvoted - NOT EXACTLY, only when caught by church groups and
Democrats, did you beg to change your misvote.

18.) I Was A Professor Of Law - NOT EXACTLY, you were a senior lecturer ON
LEAVE.

19.) I Was A Constitutional Lawyer - NOT EXACTLY, you were a senior
lecturer ON LEAVE.

20.) Without Me, There Would Be No Ethics Bill - NOT EXACTLY, you didn't
write it, introduce it, change it, or create it.

21.) The Ethics Bill Was Hard To Pass - NOT EXACTLY, it took just 14 days
from start to finish.

22.) I Wrote A Tough Nuclear Bill - NOT EXACTLY, your bill was rejected by
your own party for its pandering and lack of all regulation - mainly
because of your Nuclear donor, Exelon, from which David Axelrod came.

23.) I Have Released My State Records - NOT EXACTLY, as of March, 2008,
state bills you sponsored or voted for have yet to be released, exposing
all the special interests pork hidden within.

24.) I Took On The Asbestos Altgeld Gardens Mess - NOT EXACTLY, you were
part of a large group of people who remedied Altgeld Gardens. You failed
to mention anyone else but yourself, in your books.

25.) My Economics Bill Will Help America - NOT EXACTLY, your 111 economic
policies were just combined into a proposal which lost 99-0, and even YOU
voted against your own bill.

26.) I Have Been A Bold Leader In Illinois - NOT EXACTLY, even your own
supporters claim to have not seen BOLD action on your part.

27.) I Passed 26 Of My Own Bills In One Year - NOT EXACTLY, they were not
YOUR bills, but rather handed to you, after their creation by a fellow
Senator, to assist you in a future bid for higher office.

28.) No One on my campaign contacted Canada about NAFTA - NOT EXACTLY, the
Candian Government issued the names and a memo of the conversation your
campaign had with them.

29.) I Am Tough On Terrorism - NOT EXACTLY, you missed the Iran Resolution
vote on terrorism and your good friend Ali Abunimah supports the
destruction of Israel.

30.) I Want All Votes To Count - NOT EXACTLY, you said let the delegates
decide.

31.) I Want Americans To Decide - NOT EXACTLY, you prefer caucuses that
limit the vote, confuse the voters, force a public vote, and only operate
during small windows of time.

32.) I passed 900 Bills in the State Senate - NOT EXACTLY, you passed 26,
most of which you didn't write yourself.

33.) I Believe In Fairness, Not Tactics - NOT EXACTLY, you used tactics to
eliminate Alice Palmer from running against you.

34.) I Don't Take PAC Money - NOT EXACTLY, you take load's of it.

35.) I don't Have Lobbysists - NOT EXACTLY, you have over 47 lobbyists,
and counting.

36.) My Campaign Had Nothing To Do With The 1984 Ad - NOT EXACTLY, your
own campaign worker made the ad on his Apple http://www.apple.com/ in
one afternoon.

37.) I Have Always Been Against Iraq - NOT EXACTLY, you weren't in office
to vote against it AND you have voted to fund it every single time.

38.) I Have Always Supported Universal Health Care - NOT EXACTY, your
plan leaves us all to pay for the 15,000,000 who don't have to buy it.

COREY Go home

Remember this guy? He has been the poster child for a group called War Resisters in Canada. I wrote about him previously here.

Glass, for those of you who have already forgotten him (and I am sure that wouldn't sit well with him...lol) fled to Canada from the US army, of which he was a VOLUNTEER recruit,, rather than be shipped back to Iraq. He has been fighting deportation from Canada based on the "illegal war", and the fact that he would be punished by the US military for deserting.

Turns out that Mr Glass has been so busy with public engagements, (oops I mean evading the nasty Americans), that he didn't hear about an important fact. I got a BIG chuckle this week to read that Glass was DISCHARGED from the military just four months into his life as fugitive.

Yes, ABC carried this story last week:

Myth vs Fact

Myth	Fact
Islam: Religion of peace.	Sahih Muslim Book 19, Number 4294: It has been reported from Sulaiman b. Buraid through his father that when the Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon him) appointed anyone as leader of an army or detachment he would especially exhort him to fear Allah and to be good to the Muslims who were with him. He would say: Fight in the name of Allah and in the way of Allah. Fight against those who disbelieve in Allah. Make a holy war, do not embezzle the spoils; do not break your pledge; and do not mutilate (the dead) bodies; do not kill the children. When you meet your enemies who are polytheists, invite them to three courses of action. If they respond to any one of these, you also accept it and withold yourself from doing them any harm. Invite them to (accept) Islam; if they respond to you, accept it from them and desist from fighting against them. Then invite them to migrate from their lands to the land of Muhairs and inform them that, if they do so, they shall have all the privileges and obligations of the Muhajirs. If they refuse to migrate, tell them that they will have the status of Bedouin Muilims and will be subjected to the Commands of Allah like other Muslims, but they will not get any share from the spoils of war or Fai' except when they actually fight with the Muslims (against the disbelievers). If they refuse to accept Islam, demand from them the Jizya. If they agree to pay, accept it from them and hold off your hands. If they refuse to pay the tax, seek Allah's help and fight them. When you lay siege to a fort and the besieged appeal to you for protection in the name of Allah and His Prophet, do not accord to them the guarantee of Allah and His Prophet, but accord to them your own guarantee and the guarantee of your companions for it is a lesser sin that the security given by you or your companions be disregarded than that the security granted in the name of Allah and His Prophet be violated When you besiege a fort and the besieged want you to let them out in accordance with Allah's Command, do not let them come out in accordance with His Command, but do so at your (own) command, for you do not know whether or not you will be able to carry out Allah's behest with regard to them.

Stop the ACLU! "Weekly" Roundup 06/03-07/06/2008

Life just keeps getting in the way and yet Jay, with a brand new child (CONGRATULATIONS Jay!) keeps sending out incredible news. Go visit him at Stop the ACLU! for more of his great work!

Articles:
ADF Sues NY Governor: "No Authority" to Redefine Marriage.

Attorneys with the Alliance Defense Fund filed suit Tuesday in New York state court on behalf of lawmakers and taxpayers to halt implementation of Gov. David Paterson's directive ordering state agencies to recognize same-sex "marriages" from other jurisdictions.

"The governor should respect New York's marriage laws over the laws of foreign jurisdictions. The governor has no authority to issue directives which conflict with New York's public policy. His actions are an assault on the democratic process," said ADF Senior Legal Counsel Brian Raum.

A List of Things About Obama that are NOT Rumor.
Obama's whitey rant and the conspiracy Obama's a Muslim set to undermine our democracy are rumor, but there are plenty of facts the media have slacked on covering that are very disturbing. Please help me complete the list.

Supreme Court Creates Killing.
In a 5 to 4 decision, the idiots on the Supreme Court have decided that terrorists are covered by our Constitution, no matter where they are captured and held.

This is as wrong headed a decision as can be imagined and two of the Justices, Scalia and Roberts, were scathing in their dissent.

But, here is the real result of this ruling. No, it doesn't "help" the murderers and terrorists get habeas corpus, or find rights, it will kill them on the battlefield. What battlefield commander will waste his time trying to figure out what rights the terrorist he is facing has or doesn't have?

The proper and reasonable decision to make on the battlefield will be to automatically kill EVERY captured person as soon as you do a quick interrogation. After all, anything else will simply just get the commanders on the line in trouble with the "law."

And, I cannot say I'd blame any American soldier on the battlefield. Just kill every one of those captured without regard for their status. Their innocence? Immaterial. Kill them anyway.

ACLU and Allies Attempt to Shut Down Public Prayer in Ohio and Wisconsin.
The number one religious censor in America is at it again.

Louisiana Governor Jindal Vows to Amend State Law to Maintain Death as a Penalty for Child Rape.
I'm sure everyone heard about the horrible Supreme Court decision in which we think someone needs impeached, if not a few. It is good to know however, that there is at least one politician out there that won't take this lying down.

ACLU Attempt to Stamp Out Prayer at Naval Academy
Once again the seperation claus nazis are trying to stamp out Christian free speech.

Why Aren't We Impeaching Some Supreme Court Justices?
My take on the attrocious legislation from the bench in the Boumediene v. Bush decision by the Supreme Court. The courts will be flooded with habeas corpus petitions soon enough, and the ACLU will be lining their pockets with bloody money to defend the terrorists who want to kill us. Oh, and guess who pays the ACLU to defend these detainees? You do! The American taxpayer!

Hey Supreme Court, Since You Think Death Isn't Proportional Punishment for Rape, How About Castration?
I think a lot of folks will like Bobby Jindal's response to the idiotic ruling of the Supreme Court. Since they don't think death is proportional punishment, I wonder how they'll feel about castration?

They get a choice: physical or chemical. Oh, and they don't just get castrated and leave - they still have to serve out their sentence.

SB 144 by Senators Nick Gautreaux, Amedee, Dorsey, Duplessis and Mount provides that on a first conviction of aggravated rape, forcible rape, second degree sexual battery, aggravated incest, molestation of a juvenile when the victim is under the age of 13, or an aggravated crime against nature, the court may sentence the offender to undergo chemical castration. On a second conviction of the above listed crimes, the court is required to sentence the offender to undergo chemical castration.

Gov. Jindal made it absolutely clear that signing this bill today was about more than just sending a no-tolerance message across his state: "I want to send the message loud and clear – to the Supreme Court of the United States and beyond – make no mistake about it, if anyone wants to molest children and commit sexual assaults on kids they should not do so here in Louisiana. Here, we will do everything in our power to protect our children and we will not rest until justice is won and we have fully punished those who harm them."

Activist Federal Judges Force Taxpayers to Subsidize Idaho ACLU.
The state of Idaho owes lawyers from the pro-abortion ACLU law firm $66,000 after failing to uphold a law requiring parental consent for abortions. In losing the lawsuit, the state was forced to pay for attorney fees for the pro-abortion firm, which represented the Planned Parenthood abortion business.

In total, the state of Idaho will have paid ACLU lawyers over $400,000 by the time all of the payments are complete.

During the lawsuit, federal District Court Judge Lynn Winmill enjoined the state from enforcing the parental consent law because of his concerns over the notification of parents in the event an abortion practitioner performed an emergency abortion on their child.

The effort to get a consent law on the books goes back to the 1998 session of the Idaho Legislature.

Idaho Gov. Butch Otter signed the third and final version of the parental consent measure into law in March 2007.

WaPo After Free Republic Again, Now Over Barack-is-a-Muslim Email
Washintong Post is attacking freerepublic.com and blaming them for starting the chain email stating that Obama is a Muslim. What are they basing these accusations on? Nothing but assumptions.

Google Shuts Down Anti-Obama Sites on its Blogger Platform.
Yes, it sure seems that Google has begun to go through its many thousands of blogs to lock out the owners of anti-Obama blogs so that the noObama message is effectively squelched. Thus far, Google has terminated the access by blog owners to 7 such sites and the list may be growing. Boy, it must be nice for Barack Obama to have an ally powerful enough to silence his opponents like that! It isn't just conservative sites that Google's Blogger platform is eliminating.

ACLU and EFF Sue Justice Department to Uncover Records of Cell Phone Tracking
A lot of paranoia going on about this one, but some folks are keeping level heads. Nothing is being searched. Their is no seizure of anything private. People can be followed without a warrant. So why would a warrant be needed to know someone's location? Take a look, weigh in with your opinion, and share with others.

Judge Throws Out Wiretap Suit from Suspected Al Qaida Charity
The case against the NSA from a suspsected Al Qaeda charity has been dismissed. Civil liberty groups had high hopes for this case because it was the only case they had that had anything resembling evidence.

Obama Makes Huge Flip-Flop on Iraq

"I've always said that the pace of withdrawal would be dictated by the safety and security of our troops and the need to maintain stability. That assessment has not changed," he said. "And when I go to Iraq and have a chance to talk to some of the commanders on the ground, I'm sure I'll have more information and will continue to refine my policies."…

Obama Gives Vets and Military Families the Middle Finger, Stands With Code Pink

Democratic presidential presumptive Sen. Barack Obama (IL) met with his terrorist supporting fundraiser, Jodie Evans, at a $5 million Hollywood fundraiser held last week at the Dorothy Chandler Pavillion on Tuesday, June 24.

In what can only be described as a big middle finger to the veterans and military families who have urged Obama to renounce Evans, Obama met with Evans and was photographed with her at the fundraiser.

Evans is co-founder of the leftist anti-American group Code Pink. She and Code Pink have endorsed the terrorists in Iraq and have sent over $600,000 in cash and humanitarian aid to "the other side" in Fallujah.

Myth vs Fact

Myth	Fact
Islam: Religion of peace.	Sahih Muslim Book 19, Number 4292: Ibn 'Aun reported: I wrote to Nafi' inquiring from him whether it was necessary to extend (to the disbelievers) an invitation to accept (Islam) before m". ing them in fight. He wrote (in reply) to me that it was necessary in the early days of Islam. The Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon him) made a raid upon Banu Mustaliq while they were unaware and their cattle were having a drink at the water. He killed those who fought and imprisoned others. On that very day, he captured Juwairiya bint al-Harith. Nafi' said that this tradition was related to him by Abdullah b. Umar who (himself) was among the raiding troops.

Although personally I am quite content with existing explosives, I feel we must not stand in the path of improvement.
Although prepared for martyrdom, I preferred that it be postponed.
Attitude is a little thing that makes a big difference.
Battles are won by slaughter and maneuver. The greater the general, the more he contributes in maneuver, the less he demands in slaughter.

I have nothing to offer but blood, toil, tears and sweat.
I like a man who grins when he fights.
I was only the servant of my country and had I, at any moment, failed to express her unflinching resolve to fight and conquer, I should at once have been rightly cast aside.
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time-a tremendous whack.
In war as in life, it is often necessary when some cherished scheme has failed, to take up the best alternative open, and if so, it is folly not to work for it with all your might.
It is no use saying, 'We are doing our best.' You have got to succeed in doing what is necessary.
Moral of the Work. In war: resolution. In defeat: defiance. In victory: magnanimity. In peace: goodwill.
Never in the field of human conflict was so much owed by so many to so few.
Never, never, never give up.
No folly is more costly than the folly of intolerant idealism.
One ought never to turn one's back on a threatened danger and try to run away from it. If you do that, you will double the danger. But if you meet it promptly and without flinching, you will reduce the danger by half. Never run away from anything. Never!
Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy, its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery.

These are not dark days: these are great days - the greatest days our country has ever lived.
They are decided only to be undecided, resolved to be irresolute, adamant for drift, solid for fluidity, all-powerful to be impotent.
True genius resides in the capacity for evaluation of uncertain, hazardous, and conflicting information.
Victory at all costs, victory in spite of all terror, victory however long and hard the road may be; for without victory, there is no survival.
War is a game that is played with a smile. If you can't smile, grin. If you can't grin, keep out of the way till you can.
War is mainly a catalogue of blunders.
We shall defend our island, whatever the cost may be, we shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing grounds, we shall fight in the fields and in the streets, we shall fight in the hills; we shall never surrender.

Facts are stupid things.
Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same.
Freedom prospers when religion is vibrant and the rule of law under God is acknowledged.
Government exists to protect us from each other. Where government has gone beyond its limits is in deciding to protect us from ourselves.
Governments tend not to solve problems, only to rearrange them.
History teaches that war begins when governments believe the price of aggression is cheap.

I will stand on, and continue to use, the figures I have used, because I believe they are correct. Now, I'm not going to deny that you don't now and then slip up on something; no one bats a thousand.
In Israel, free men and women are every day demonstrating the power of courage and faith. Back in 1948 when Israel was founded, pundits claimed the new country could never survive. Today, no one questions that. Israel is a land of stability and democracy in a region of tryanny and unrest.
