Obama’s College Classmate Speaks Out: The Scandal At Columbia That Ends The Obama Presidency

August 9, 2012 by  

`
Hello, I’m Wayne Allyn Root for Personal Liberty. And have I got a story for you. I am President Obama’s college classmate from Columbia University, Class of ’83. And I’ve got a hunch on the scandal that ends Obama’s hopes for a second term. No, it’s not his birth certificate. The scandal that takes down Obama’s Presidency happened 30 years ago at Columbia University. This is the smoking gun.

This also ties into Harry Reid’s hunch about Mitt Romney’s tax records. You see Senator Reid opened up Pandora’s box. He made it OK for any of us to play a guessing game. If Harry can guess about Romney’s taxes, without a shred of evidence… then a citizen and taxpayer and former college classmate of Obama has the standing to do a little educated guessing of my own.

You see my background is one of a kind. I’m one of the most accurate Las Vegas oddsmakers and prognosticators ever. Accurate enough that I was awarded my own star on the Las Vegas Walk of Stars – one of 60 legends in the history of Vegas to be honored with a 180 pound granite star in the sidewalk on Las Vegas Blvd. Gut instinct is how I’ve made my living for 29 years since graduating Columbia. My gut is almost always right. I became a self-made millionaire based on my gut instincts. And I smell something rotten in Denmark. Obama has a big skeleton in his closet. And it’s hidden in his college records at Columbia.

But first let’s examine the game being played to distract us from the real scandal. It’s a diversion… subterfuge. I call Obama’s scheme “Weapons of mass distraction.” Obama and his infamous strategist David Axelrod understand how to play dirty political hardball, the best its ever been played. They learned on the vicious, dirty streets of Chicago, where the mob appears downright nice compared to the politicians. Team Obama has decided to distract America’s voters by condemning Mitt Romney for not releasing enough years of his tax returns. It’s the perfect cover. Obama knows the best defense is a bold offense. Just keep attacking Mitt and blaming him for secrecy and evasion, while accusing him of having a scandal that doesn’t exist. Then ask your lapdog Senator Harry Reid to chase the Frisbee. The U.S. Senate Majority Leader is now making up stories out of thin air, about tax returns he knows absolutely nothing about. It’s a cynical, brilliant and vicious strategy. Make Romney defend, so he can’t go on offense and attack the real Obama scandal.

This is classic Axelrod. Obama has won multiple elections in his career by slandering his opponents and leaking sealed court documents. Not only do these insinuations and leaks ruin the credibility and reputation of Obama’s opponents, they keep them on the defensive and off Obama’s trail of sealed documents. And Obama spends millions to armies of lawyers to keep them sealed.

By attacking Romney’s tax records, Obama’s team of Chicago hit men creates a problem that doesn’t exist. And they even have the U.S. Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid in their pocket… leading the charge… thereby assuring that the media will cover it and put Romney on the Defensive. The U.S. Senate Majority Leader joins a scheme to defame a squeaky clean opponent with the record of a choir boy. Romney is the guy you want to marry your daughter. Religious. Brilliant. Family man. Never cheated in his life. Harvard Law and Harvard Business. Donates millions to charity. So you get Harry Reid to make up stories out of thin air to frame an innocent man… and you get the biased liberal media to go along with the execution of an innocent man. But the reason for this baseless attack is what is so interesting… such brilliant but disgusting cynical strategy it could only come from Chicago… the point of this deception and distraction is to make Romney defend, so he can’t go on the offensive… to dirty his perfect reputation up… and to give the media something to talk about… something other than the real scandal they should be investigating.

But I have the answer for Romney. A challenge that shuts up Obama forever.

It’s time to call Obama’s bluff. Romney should call a press conference and issue a challenge in front of the Nation. He should agree to release more of his tax returns, only if Obama unseals his college records. Simple and straight-forward. Mitt should ask “What could possibly be so embarrassing in your college records from 30 years ago, that you are afraid to let America’s voters see it? If it’s THAT bad, maybe it’s something the voters ought to see.” Suddenly the tables are turned. Now Obama is on the defensive.

My bet is that Obama will never unseal his records, never… EVER. Because they contain information that could destroy his political career. Once this challenge is made public, my prediction is you’ll never hear about Mitt’s tax returns ever again. End of story.

But why are the college records, of a 51-year-old President of the United States, so important to keep secret? I think I know the answer.

If anyone should have questions about Obama’s record at Columbia University, it’s me. We both graduated (according to Obama) Columbia University, Class of ’83. We were both (according to Obama) Pre-Law and Political Science majors. And I thought I knew most everyone at Columbia. I certainly thought I’d heard of all of my fellow Political Science majors. But not Obama… or as he was known then, Barry Soetoro. Can you imagine…the President of the United States had a different name 30 years ago. How bizarre is that? You think you know him? You don’t even know his name.

But here’s where the mystery gets really strange. I knew everyone in the political science department. But I never met Obama in my life. Never saw him in my life. Never even heard of him in my entire four years at Columbia. And none of the classmates that I knew at Columbia has ever met him, saw him or heard of him either.

But don’t take my word for it. The Wall Street Journal reported in 2008 that Fox News randomly called 400 of our Columbia classmates and never found one who had ever met Obama.

Now all of this mystery could be easily and instantly dismissed if Obama released his Columbia transcripts to the media. But even after serving as President for 3 1/2 years he refuses to unseal his college records. Shouldn’t the media be as relentless in pursuit of Obama’s records as Romney’s? Shouldn’t they be digging for Obama’s dirt with the same boundless enthusiasm as Mitt’s? Doesn’t something smell rotten here?

So let’s down and dirty to figure out the scandal. The first question I’d ask is, if you had great grades, why would you seal your records? So let’s assume Obama got poor grades. Why not release the records? He’s President of the free world, for gosh sakes. He’s commander-in-chief of the U.S. military. Who’d care about some poor grades from three decades ago, right? So then what’s the problem? Doesn’t that make the media suspicious? Something doesn’t add up.

Secondly, all of Obama’s old classmates and buddies at Occidental say he was a poor student there…spending lots of time smoking pot and attending radical meetings. His grades were awful they say. Again, we can’t prove it because Obama’s records are sealed. So if he had poor grades at Occidental, how did he get admitted to an Ivy League university in the first place? Do you know how hard it is to transfer into an Ivy League university – it’s almost impossible. And if his grades at Columbia were awful, how’d he ever get into Harvard Law School? So again those grades must have been great, right? So why spend millions to keep them sealed?

Third, how did a poor kid pay for all these fancy schools? If he had student loans or scholarships, don’t American students need good grades to maintain student loans?

I can only think of one answer that explains all of these mysteries…

So here’s my gut. I believe Obama got a leg up by being admitted to both Occidental and Columbia as a foreign exchange student. He was raised as a young boy in Indonesia. That’s a fact. His mother made him an Indonesian citizen. But… did his mother ever bother to change him back to a U.S. citizen? I’m betting not. He was abandoned by his mother and sent back to Hawaii to live with his grandparents. No one was paying much attention to young Obama, so his citizenship was never changed back. But suddenly as he nears college-age and starts thinking of how to get into college with lousy grades and no money… Obama learns that foreign students have a much easier path being admitted to U.S. universities. And even more amazingly, they get loads of aid and scholarships to attend college for free – something unavailable to U.S. citizens. It’s a completely different path – a path so easy that even a kid with no father… no mother to be found… no money… and lousy grades can get admitted to the best colleges… as a poor foreigner with an exotic background.

So a plan is hatched. Obama uses his Indonesian passport and citizenship to get into college. Suddenly even Ivy League Columbia University is a possibility for a foreign student from Indonesia. And it’s all paid for by the taxpayers.

That would explain how a poor student who rarely attended class and got mediocre grades, and with no money, was able to get accepted and pay for Occidental, Columbia and Harvard Law. The door magically opened for a foreign student. Every college needs one or two bright exotic foreigners to create “diversity.”

Now the sad reality is there is some U.S. student — a Valedictorian of his or her school — who never got to go to Columbia or Harvard Law because Obama fraudulently took their place.

That would also explain the great mystery of how in the summer of 1981 Barry Soetoro was able to travel to Pakistan when no U.S. citizen was allowed to travel there. An American couldn’t make that trip…but no problem if you’re an Indonesian citizen using an Indonesian passport?

Of course, here’s the wrinkle…a foreign student isn’t qualified to serve as President of the United States. So that secret had to be sealed and covered up for the rest of all time. In 2007 everything happened so fast no one could even ask questions…ask Hillary! She never imagined Obama could beat her and never did any serious digging. Next thing you know, Obama is President. But with a massive secret threatening his legacy every second of every day. That explains why a sitting President of the United States would spend millions of dollars in legal fees to keep his past sealed.

If you could unseal Obama’s Columbia University records I believe you’d find that:

  • He rarely ever attended class.
  • His grades were not those typical of what we understand it takes to get into Harvard Law School.
  • He attended Columbia as a foreign exchange student.
  • He never paid for either undergraduate college or Harvard Law School because of foreign aid and scholarships given to a poor foreigner like this kid Barry Soetoro from Indonesia.

Lastly, why do his classmates at Columbia not remember Obama? Was he a ghost? Did he never show up at class? My educated guess is that he was too busy smoking pot, attending Marxist meetings, and plotting the destruction of the U.S. economy and the overthrow of capitalism. Don’t laugh. It’s working.

If you think I’m “fishing,” then prove me wrong. Open up your records Mr. President. What are you afraid of? Cat got your tongue? If all we’ll find is a few C’s and D’s… then show us the records. If it’s OK for U.S. Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid to go on a fishing expedition about Romney’s taxes (even though he knows absolutely nothing about them), then I think I can do the same thing. But as Obama’s Columbia Class of ’83 classmate, at least I have more standing to make educated guesses.

It’s time for Mitt to go on the attack and call Obama’s bluff. Oh and one more thing, Mitt. Tell Harry Reid you’ll release all of your tax returns when Harry Reid releases all of his. Inquiring minds want to know how Harry Reid entered the U.S. Senate with no assets and became one of the wealthiest United States Senators, now worth millions, and living at the Washington, D.C. Ritz Carlton? I’m not saying he did anything wrong, but just like Mitt’s tax returns… shouldn’t Harry have to prove he did nothing wrong? We all want to see Senator Reid’s tax returns to solve the second biggest mystery in Washington DC… behind only Obama’s scandal at Columbia.

  • Cap

    Those who have followed the background of President Barack Obama are familiar with the arc of his post-secondary education: After finishing high school in 1979, he attended Occidental College in Los Angeles for two years, transferred to Columbia College in New York City (one of Columbia University’s four undergraduate schools) for another two years, graduated from Columbia with a bachelor’s degree in political science, and then (after a five-year interlude during which he traveled and worked as a community organizer) entered Harvard Law School in 1988 and graduated with a law degree in 1991.

    Even those who have studied Barack Obama’s background in detail don’t generally know much about his time at Columbia University, however, as he hasn’t revealed much about that period of his life in his public writings and statements, nor has he made his transcripts or other school records from Columbia available
    for public examination. Obama’s reticence about revealing much from this period of his life has given license to a number of related rumors, the most outlandish of them being the claim outlined above that he fabricated this element of his background and didn’t really attend Columbia at all.

    Most expressions of this rumor feed off the statement (referenced in a Wall Street Journal editorial) that “Fox News contacted some 400 of [Obama's] classmates and found no one who remembered him” and a statement made by Wayne Allyn Root (the Libertarian Party’s 2008 vice presidential nominee who also attended Columbia at the same time as Barack Obama) that “I don’t know a single person at Columbia that knows him, and they all know me. I don’t have a classmate who ever knew Barack Obama at Columbia.”

    As literally true as these statements might be, they don’t prove that Barack Obama never attended Columbia — at best they demonstrate there was nothing particularly remarkable or distinguished about him at that point in his life that others found memorable 25 years after the fact. Barack Obama himself would likely agree with that assessment, as he noted himself that he spent his time at Columbia largely alone and isolated:
    In his memoir and in interviews, Obama has said he got serious and buckled down in New York. “I didn’t socialize that much. I was like a monk,” he said in a 2005 Columbia alumni magazine interview. He told biographer David Mendell: “For about two years there, I was just painfully alone and really not focused on anything, except maybe thinking a lot.”
    Although Barack Obama may not have been particularly social or memorable during his years at Columbia, it isn’t true that “no one ever came forward from Obama’s past saying they knew him, attended school with him, was his friend, etc.” Those who have attested to having daily personal experience with him during his time at that school include:
    • Friend and roommate Sohale Siddiqi, whom the Associated Press located and interviewed in May 2008.

    • Roommate Phil Boerner, who provided his recollections of sharing a New York City apartment with classmate Barack Obama to the Columbia College Today alumni publication and the New York Times in early 2009.

    • Michael L. Baron, who taught the year-long honors seminar in American Foreign Policy that Barack Obama took during his senior year at Columbia and recalled in an NBC interview Obama’s “easily acing” the class and receiving an A for his senior paper on the topic of nuclear negotiations with the Soviet Union.
    Likewise, other external evidence documents Barack Obama’s presence at Columbia from 1981-83, including:
    • An article by Barack Obama published in the 10 March 1983 edition of Columbia’s Sundial school magazine.

    • A January 2005 Columbia College Today profile of Barack Obama as a Columbia alumnus.

    • A Columbia College press release from November 2008 identifying him as “the first College alumnus to be elected President of the United States.”
    Finally, the fatal flaw in the “Obama didn’t go to Columbia” theory is that he couldn’t have been admitted to Harvard Law School in 1988 without having received an undergraduate degree. If he wasn’t attending Columbia from 1981-83, he would have had to complete two full years’ worth of coursework at (and graduate from) some other accredited college — yet his time between the end of his Columbia days in 1983 and his entering Harvard Law in 1988 is accounted for (working at the Business International Corporation and the New York Public Interest Research Group, then serving as director of the Developing Communities Project in Chicago), and no other school claims him as an alumnus, nor does anyone purport to have encountered him as a classmate or student at any other college or university during that period.

    At this time most would tend to dig up the stories of old to use as scare tactics and there are many who will become consumed enough by hate to believe them! Fox News adds nothing but the usual sleepy grind to try to consume people who fall into the bed of the less informed.

    • Caranina

      Very well said, Cap. Those who argue against what you said are ignorant, misinformed, hateful, and will NEVER ever listen to reason. In the past, the two parties “agreed to disagree”, then looked for common ground to benefit ALL of the people. Sadly, some would now require EVERYONE to subscribe to only their right-wing point of view. That is not a Democracy, and that is not what this country was founded on. Henry Commager, in his book “Freedom, Loyalty, and Dissent” argues that ” dissent and non conformity are essential to a free country”. Amazon says: “This book is a good read for those interested in LIBERTY”. It would be GREAT if some of these writers would read that! It takes all kinds of people working together, bringing ideas together, and finding common ground, to truly make a free America, and that is what makes us a great country.

      • DaveH

        Caranina says — “Very well said, Cap. Those who argue against what you said are ignorant, misinformed, hateful, and will NEVER ever listen to reason”.
        That was a reasoned comment?

      • Retired Army Officer

        Carinina’s response may not have been “well reasoned”…..but on the other hand, I’ve noticed that you couldn’t/didn’t formulate a response to Cap.

        Just sayin’.

      • DaveH

        RAO,
        I don’t get into the Obama History fray, because I believe that it would be a useless expenditure of my time with so many falsehoods swirling around about his origin.
        And Obama is just the tip of the iceberg. We have far bigger problems, like a vast majority of the population who don’t have a clue about economics and the inevitable results of the path we are taking.
        My focus is on educating those people who think Socialism will benefit them, when in truth it only benefits those who are politically connected at the rest of the citizens’ expense.

      • kkflash

        If his time at Columbia was so “normal” and merely an introspective period in his life, why is he so intent on suppressing his records from public scrutiny? And, none of Cap’s (uncited) commentary addresses the issue raised by Mr. Root of how Obama managed to pay for his Ivy League education, when he was admittedly of very modest means.

      • kkflash

        @retired army officer
        Not true. It is a fact that Mr. Root attended Columbia at the same time Obama purports to have attended. That makes his testimony about recalling nothing of Obama’s presence there a first hand eye-witness account, which carries the weight of fact unless refuted by some other evidence. His story is supported by the reported Wall Street Journal survey of 400 Columbia students that Mr. Root also cited. Cap’s contention about several people acknowledging Obama’s presence at Columbia is second-hand testimony, also known in law as hearsay.

        In any case, you are missing the key point of the article: that Mr. Root suspects Obama of attending college as a foreign exchange student, which if true, would make Obama an admitted non-citizen and ineligible to be President.

    • eddie47d

      Thanks Cap we appreciate each side of the story.

    • nativetexan

      As with all other lunatic liberal arguments, there are no facts to back up your claims and suppositions. Without documentation to verify your claims, they are, how did obama say it, words, just words. Take your story to court and see if it holds water. Mr. Root’s theory sounds just as logical as yours and a lot more believable. By the way, my college records and transcripts ARE available and I wrote for the college newspaper too.

      • Retired Army Officer

        Hey Texan, you stated to Cap:

        “As with all other lunatic liberal arguments, there are no facts to back up your claims and suppositions. Without documentation to verify your claims….”

        OK…..so how is this any different than what Wayne Root’s article?

        RAO writes:

        I think you are beginning to get the point of Wayne Root’s article. Which is btw that if Harry Reid (democrat) can make claims and suppositions over tax records of Romney then Wayne make claims and suppositions over college records of Obama.

      • Alex

        Yes, nativetexan, but it seems probable that your college newspaper was in Texass, which raises a red flag.
        We have seen what the Texass “educators” want to do with textbooks! Just sayin’…

    • Nobody’s Fool

      Cap, you really had to dig for that, didn’t you!?!?! (How about digging up his birth certificate…the real one!! hint: look in British archives.) BTW, all the poop on oBlamer refers to or alludes to his attending Columbia University or just “Columbia”, rather than the remedial Columbia College.

      • Alex

        N. Fool—Can you not just applaud the fact that Cap DID dig so deeply for the truth? Whether or not it IS the truth will be borne out in time, certainly. But why is it that so many of the Faux Noose sheeple bury their heads and disdain investigation that originates OUTSIDE the small box they live in?

    • Ghost Hunter

      I suppose there are some people that make the statement that maybe he never attended Columbia, but I am not sure that is the real issue here. I would certainly never say that he did not attend there, I would simply ask one question. Did he attend as an American citizen, or did he have his education paid for as a “foreign student”? Did he have a U.S. passport, or one from another country. I don’t believe that is too difficult a question to answer. If he was an American citizen attending college then there should be no issue here. However, if he attended college as a foreign student, then we have a major problem. It is just that simple. I don’t know why y’all are making this so difficult. It is a very simple question. We do still have a Constitution. At least for the time being.

    • http://RootforAmerica.com Wayne Allyn Root

      This is Wayne Allyn Root- you did not read my article or watch my video closely “cap.” Did you catch me on Hannity on Fox News discussing this? Or Hannity radio? Or Glenn Beck? Or Huckabee? Or Rush Limbaugh? Or Geraldo? I did them all in 24 hours. I’ve never said Obama did not attend Columbia. I’ve said it is a huge mystery that few remember him from there. He was the ghost of Columbia. The question isn’t did he go there? It’s what was he doing when he was never in class? Why? And all of that is just an obvious starter question.

      The real story and scandal is…did he apply to Columbia as a foreign national from Indonesia? Thats the scandal that could bring down his Presidency.
      Wayne

      • Retired Army Officer

        OK Wayne……you ask why was Obama never in class and what was he doing when he wasn’t in class. Well…..I want to know which classes YOU took with Obama, that you know he never went to class. Hell….can you even prove you had classes with Obama?

        I would find it amazing that Columbia would have so few PolySci classes that you absolutely had to have any…..or multiple…..classes with him.

        Furthermore, I’d find it interesting that you would know, by name and/or facial recognition, every black PoliSci major in your graduating class and that you’d remember them ALL 25-30 years later to extent that you can say that ONE OBSCURE STUDENT was ‘never in class’.

        I can tell you in no uncertain terms that I didn’t know (or cared to know) every black student with my major who was in my graduating class……and there weren’t very many. Nor would I remember any of them if I saw then on the street…..or on TV; and I’m only a year or two older than you.

        Finally, you imply (your gut is obviously great…..yes, I did read your article) that Obama gained entry to Columbia as a foreign exchange student from Indonesia. But you have nothing to go on except your gut.

        Sorry pal…..but your gut ain’t good enough for me…..and I don’t even like the guy.

        Articles like your adds nothing of value to the discussion as to whether Obama is a good/competent President. It adds nothing of value to the discussion as to whether he should be reelected or not.

        What it DOES do is –rile up– those who would read it and pass it along to other like-minded people, spurring them on to the inflamatory rhetoric we now have on this board…..and I believe (yes, I have a gut, too) that’s all you intend for it to do.

        Good luck to ya……hope your life is now adequately fulfilled.

      • Retired Army Officer

        Thanks for the link to the WND article, Dave.

        Hey……did you see the quote, under the paragraph about Obama’s thesis or “Soviet Nuclear Disarmament”? The quote goes like this:

        “Former Columbia professor, Michael Baron, told NBC News Obama excelled in his year-long honors seminar called American Foreign Policy.”

        I guess that pretty much settles it…..a former Colubia professor remembers Obama…..and even references the class Obama took.

        OK……that settles the question as to whether Obama was a Columbia student…..and whether he was a competent (he “excelled”)student…..

      • DaveH

        Oh yeah, that settles it. A former Professor said so.
        Come on, RAO, are you really that naive?

      • DaveH

        Hundreds, maybe thousands, of College Professors have taught their students that Abe Lincoln was an Honest man:

      Actually the point of the article was that the Republicans should take up the tactics of the Obama campain which is to lie, cheat, and steal your way into an election, by making up stories of the opposing candidate based on half or no knowledge or information.
      The main point being that Obama lied about his country of origin so he could get into college, he attended Columbia and Harvard, but lied about where he was born.
      He promised openess and transparency and yet he is the most secretive and hides all his personal data more than all other candidates. And if he had “aced” the test so well and his grades were so good, then he can release his college transcripts as well as entrance requirements as whats he worried about?
      I seem to recall that some of Obama’s claims were for Hope and Change, and personally I think most Americans would agree, that he has inspired nothing of the sort, but has resorted to creating a society that is devisive and accusatory, as well as dependent on the government for handouts,, a society of entitlement hackers..
      Also I think the purpose of the president is to unify the country in all its diversity, and this president has done knothing but created devision between races, economic status, hate, and fear mongering.
      Obama promised to create 5 million Energy jobs, health care would drop $2500 per person, cut the deficet in 1/2, lift 2 million from poverty,
      I think none of those things happened, and dont blame the republicans, the first 2 years of his admistration the Dems had 100% control, and its not up to the Government to create jobs, (just look at Solyndra) as generally they havent a clue whats going on in the market, just like Obama’s “shovel ready jobs” theres no such thing,, tell that to his 57 states.
      Anyway,,didnt mean to bring facts into the conversation.. thx

        Mark……all valid points regarding the article…..and……Obama’s tenure.

        But……I also recall that the Senate Minority Leader making a statement within days after Obama’s inauguration, that his PRIMARY (and “single most important”) goal was to ensure that the President had one term.

        It wasn’t National Defense.
        It wasn’t the plunging stock market.
        It wasn’t the incredibly poor job market or rising unemployment.
        It wasn’t curbing the national debt.

        ……I could go on regarding higher priorities……

        It was to ensure that Obama only had one term.

        When the primary purpose of the opposition is to get rid of a President, it pretty much ensures that the opposition will not work to do anything that would have a positive outcome and risking that the President would receive credit for those outcomes.

        “Hope and Change” never really had a chance…..nor did ANYTHING that the President OR Congress could’ve accomplished.

        Why?

        Because the Republicans staked out their ground early…..and being on that ground meant they could give no cooperation what-so-ever to getting anything positive accomplished with the aid/support of the President or the Democrats in the Congress.

        Seems unlikely to be the reason why. For 2+ years they had a super majority in the House. A filibuster proof Senate and a Democrat President to sign anything they wanted. Hope and Change had 2+ years to do most anything.

        Lots of liberals blame President Bush. So much so it is a joke these days as to how a liberal will justify the failures of democrats.

        There is a simpler solution. Democrats are just incompetent.

    Rings true to me. But the sad truth is that even if Obama is an illegal president (which 8 beelieve he is, it is too close to the elections to do anything but vote his tired arse out of office, then insure such a decable never happens again by passing a true NBC clause foor presidential eligibilty.

    • The Resolute Voice

      Totally agree. Get Oba out of office FIRST to protect the country and then go back and research how in heck he got there and all the lies he told to con the media and liberals and who put him up to doing it all and financed him.

    Oh Boy Oh Boy – Hand Rubbing – The fix is in. We’ll take any scandall, any dirt, to take down Barry Soetorro, Barack Hussein Obama, Obummer, the Sand N., POTUS and all of the denigrating ways of naming, our democratically elected president, the man holding the highest office in the free world.

    We didn’t like Bush but we didn’t work against America to get rid of him!

    What a bunch of sore losers you all are! You’ve been dedicating your lives in the last 4 years, sulking, puffing, kicking and crying, making fools of yourselves to only one thing. making sure America fails so that you can take back, not America, but power.

    Meanwhile we could have had an efficient and simple Medicare for all, we could have reinvested in America and put people back to work, we could have cleaned up the corruption in govt instead of actually insuring it gets worse. We could have put banksters and their regulators in jail for unleashing a Financial Holocaust on the entire world and pushing 100M people back down into poverty. We could have changed our ways and stopped the overreaching empire building. We could have…….

    But NO! You put ALL of our energy into making President Obama look bad so that he is only a one term president and so that we can go back to our old GREEDY trickle down (piss on the poor) ways which let’s face it is the real reason why we’re in the [expletive deleted] today.

    This/you will go down in history as the joke of the century. Unfortunately it’s not funny is it! People are dying.

    I didn’t and wouldn’t vote for Obama, but I believe that in a winner take all system, we Americans should STFU and stand behind who ever wins and let them have their term. But that is not what happened now is it. You did everything to make sure everything failed, nothing worked, things got worse only to satisfy your twisted egos.

    Don’t you ever doubt yourselves? Are you so sure you are right? And what if you got it wrong?

    • nativetexan

      Your stupidity is unbelievable. If you believe that we, the American people had any choice in the choosing of obama, you are sadly mistaken. Start with the primaries and the primary process. Why should two small and insignificant states such as Iowa and New Hampshire determine who will be on the ballot? States holding primaries later in the year do not get to vote on the same list of candidates because of candidate withdrawals when the candidates could be getting many more votes than what are available in these small states had they been on the ballot. In our state conventions, delegates duly elected to go to the national convention had to swear that they would vote for the candidate winning the straw vote at the state level rather than apportion the votes to represent the vote of the people or vote their mind thus disenfranchising the majority of voters. The process is rigged by the establishment of BOTH parties to favor their “chosen boy”. Neither obama nor romney should be on the ballot in TX because neither has followed the laws established to be on the ballot but our elected officials choose to ignore the law and do as they choose. In TX, two people select who will be on the ballot despite the laws of the state and no one will do anything about it.

      • http://roypatterson.wordpress.com Roy Patterson

        You are 100% right. If we had the primaries the same day across the country, just like the President election, it would be fair. My idea is that the 2008 election was a set-up election to let Obama win. You see there is no two party system,at the national level anymore. It’s all a shell game for the stupid, dumb public.
        Prove me wrong. The 2012 election, also, may be a sell out agaIn with Obama winning. I hope not, but it doesn’t look good for Romney. He is running the same campaign that loser John McCain ran in 2008.

      Once in a while, Eric the Red, breaks from his adolescent manipulative tirades to actually say something real, like this — “Meanwhile we could have had an efficient and simple Medicare for all”. Of course it is wrong, as usual, but at least it’s an attempt to be something more than childish on his part.
      An efficient and simple Medicare for all? Oh? So why did we need the Health Care Bill, and why were the Progressives screaming that the system was broke so we needed even more Government Meddling in the Health Care Industry than we already had?

      So you’re totally fine with having a Marxist/Socialist in the White House??

      You’re totally fine with the fact that he did absolutely NOTHING to hold those responsible for the meltdown accountable? ( apparently mega-bank CEO’s have more friends in the White House than liberals care to admit.)

      You’re fine with the ZERO economic improvement During Barry’s tenure? (despite all of his lofty promises, and pi$$ing away nearly a trillion taxpayer dollars)

      You’re fine with the fact that he promised everything he could think of to buy votes, and when he accomplishes NONE of it, all he does is blame everyone else for his utter failure? (Such an impressive leader.)

      You’re fine with ZERO transparency and ZERO bipartisanship, despite (once again) all of his promises to the contrary?

      You’re fine with the fact that he sat in a hate-based, Marxist, anti-American, racist “church” for 20-some years, was married by reverend Wright and had his children christened by him, called Wright his “spiritual mentor”? AND THEN when confronted with the so-called philosophies preached there, he simply says “I never noticed.”, and that was enough for the media to drop the matter entirely. They spent 4 months blabbering on and on about about the cost of Sarah Palin’s wardrobe on the campaign trail, (and were STILL talking about it even after the election) but barely a week on the reverend Wright subject. Can you imagine the field day if John McCain had spent 20-some years attending KKK meetings?? But evidently it’s completely okay for a candidate to be a racist, as long as his name is barrack obama..

      And that’s just the tip of proverbial iceberg when it comes to liberal’s hypocrisy and simple-minded capacity for rational decision making.

    • JeffH

      Eric the Red, I know this is repetitive and repulsive for you but you are a self proclaimed progressive and I want others who don’t understand “American progressivism” for what it is.

      The American progressive movement shares the intellectual roots of European state theorists such as Hegel and Marx. In 20th century Europe their ideas came to fruition in the forms of communism in Russia, national socialism––that is, Naziism––in Germany, and fascism in Italy, respectively.

      Progressivism advocates—then and now—a total break from the principles of freedom articulated in our founding documents, particularly the Declaration of Independence. It seeks to either get around or dismantle limitations on government power, the very constitutional limitations established in the Constitution for the protection of individual freedom.

      The progress sought in Progressivism was to be an ongoing process through which society at large would evolve benefit under the guise of “the state,” administered by specialists, scientists, and the expertise of elitst intellectuals. They also agreed that only government so populated with and administered by elitists could be up to the job. Such a government, they argued, has the resources and the expertise could accomplish such an organizational task.

      For this reason, the progressives desire for something old in world history, not something new. Progressives are actually regressives.

    Now, they want to bring this out in the open! This should have been done years ago when he became the Senator from Ill. I’ve been saying this from day one, but no one bothered to sound the alarm. Just like Hitler, Obama has a taste of power and he has no intentions of going away, not quietly any way. The only way to get him out of Washington is to have him arrested for crimes against these United States for treason and sedition.
    With 80 Communists sitting in Congress plus the 30 Communists he appointed to his administration without going through Congress, plus the 4 Muslims sitting in Congress it’s highly unlikely he will go without a fight. He is very good at making threats, just like he did to Congress and the Supreme Court, not once but three times that if he didn’t get what he wanted there would be hell to pay. Do not forget, Obama signed an Executive Order giving him the power to call for Martial Law and he will if he sees he is going to lose this election. Don’t forget, 4 years ago he said, and I quote: “I plan to do away with term limits.” All one has to do is go back and read it for yourself.

      In order to be taken seriously or credibly you must provide some evidence of your assertion. Thinking adults cannot simply assert that another writer is wrong. They must provide some factual evidence to support their assertions. Anything less, or the level you have chosen, is akin to a child blurting “nan ne nan na na na” in response to a thoughtful, documented allegation effectually presented.

      • Ghost Hunter

        NC…I believe you just need to answer one question then. Why is obama hiding his past? It is obvious that reids comments are made to take the focus off the real untruths. They can make accusations about Romney, but the real issue is if obama is even qualified to be president in the first place. He has NEVER proved his eligibility, which is against The Constitution, which, by the way, I believe in. If someone has nothing to hide, then it should not be a problem. Anyone, and I don’t care who you are, president or not, that goes to such great lengths to hide their past normally has something very damaging to hide. That is pure simple logic. I do honestly know about such things. As a sniper, you had to know as much as possible about someone in order to perform the job at hand. Many things are hidden by those who don’t want their past revealed, or their present for that matter. Things are hidden for a reason, and don’t think for one minute that they aren’t. If you believe that, then you simply aren’t thinking or facing the reality of the situation. To spend thousands of dollars or possibly millions of dollars on lawyers and such to hide a person’s past is a dead give away that they are hiding something they don’t ever want anyone to know. Why would that be? I think the answer should be obvious to anyone who is even remotely thinking. Come to the party, and join reality.

    Dictators do not bow to sheep. Nothing will be revealed by the Marxist in Chief. Information that does manage to perculate to the surface will be denied and or buried in what has become routine.

    Joe Arpaio’s slam dunk evidence was swept under the rug and Brietbart himself was swept under the rug. These unprecedented circumstances are not going to end well.

    • TIME

      Dear Michael,

      I think you and I both know quite well that whats coming is not going to end well for the “American Middle Class” period.

      Saddly the fat worms have eaten away at the core of what was at one time a “Great Nation founded on Strong Ideals and equaly strong Moral Fiber.”
      Saddly what we have become is a nation of ignorant sheep with zero moral fiber. Thus steps in The Barry O/S/HJB/BM – B Omen who is but a symptom of that illness this nation has.
      Yet many wish to allow their egos to override what they see, what they feel, as well TRUTH.

      The numbers are out as of last week; now over 109 Million people in this nation are on some kind of “”Government aid.”"
      That speaks Volumes – when we are only {290 some odd Million “legal!}”

      Jobs, – there are NO jobs. The Jobs were sent to Cannada – China and Mexico back in the 1960′s – 2000′s. So now the results of those actions are quite clear to anyone who has gray matter.

      What has replaced the “Middle Class” are “Government jobs” that start at $55K per year and go up to $650K per year.
      That begs the question, just who’s paying for all these special Government jobs? Just Where’s the TAX base coming from again?

      Of what all begs the simple question – just who is;
      Barry Obama /
      Barry Sotero /
      Harrison J. Bounel /
      B Obama /
      the B OMEN?
      Or is he really Marshall’s child?

      You know we tend to look like one of our parents, he sure dose not look like his Mommie, its quite clear he don’t look like B Obama, nor L Sotoro, but Marshall, now theres someone he looks just like!

      Peace and Love

        Is Obama the secret son of Malcolm X?

        by Israel Insider

        Nov 4, 2008

        Morph to Malcolm by PolarikIf Barack Hussein Obama II is Malcolm X’s biological son and ideological heir, it would uniquely explain the mystery of why he was so generously helped by so many Arab and communist “friends in high places” long before he was a “somebody.”

        Malcolm ensured his secret son would learn the ways of Islam, of revolution, tutored by the finest socialist ideologues of his time, and the future, funded by Saudi and Syrian financiers. He would be groomed for leadership, educated and trained to organize the community called the United States of America.

        Morph of Barack O to Malcolm X courtesy Polarik.

        In August I received a curious email. As a magazine that covers international politics, with a focus on Mideast affairs, Israel Insider gets more from its fair share of baseless tips and phony rumors. I ignore most and delete them unread. This one was a bit different. It came from a national security lawyer with extensive credentials and intelligence connections that checked out, and a phone number.

        Israel Insider had been running a series of articles exploring the vagaries of Barack Obama’s birth, and his concealed documentation, and this was the jumping off point of the email, which confirmed the claim that Obama was not born in Hawaii, that “Mossad are going with Mombasa” but “Proving Mombasa is not so easy, as NSIS in Nairobi are clamming up tight, as are MI6 in London, who have the original Mombasa file and full details of the birth.”

        He said that “Disproving Honolulu is child’s play. You’ve already shown that the birth certificate put forward by Obama (whose people privately are not denying Mombasa, by the way) is a fake. Why fake it? If he was born in Honolulu he could obtain a genuine one. Hawaii Dept of Health would hardly denounce a potential presidential candidate’s birth certificate as fraudulent without cross-checking birth records for August 1961. No birth was registered in the name of Obama in Honolulu in August 1961.”

        (This last detail may explain why Hawaiian officials last Friday confirmed that a birth certificate does indeed exist but conspicuously refused to release any details or even confirm that the details conform to those on the computer-generated Certification of Live Birth. The name on the “original” certificate may in fact not be Obama nor the birthplace Honolulu. But Obama’s recent visit “to his grandmother” may well have had less to do with her health than eliciting this vague and inconclusive statement from the Hawaiian Health Department.)

        The source continues: “There is no evidence Ann Dunham had even met Obama Senior in or around November 1960, the alleged time of conception, indeed it is not even clear Obama was in Honolulu at that time, although he may have been. Ann Dunham was only 17 and although she might have been in Honolulu the timing is tight.” “More to the point, she was in neither of the medical centers put forward by the Obama campaign (question: why do they not know in which hospital he was born?) on August 4th, nor are there medical records to back up the claimed birth, nor has an attending physician been named. I’ve heard of births with the father absent, births with the mother absent a bit trickier.”

        “There are said to be photos of Ann Dunham on Waikiki Beach taken in or about July 1961, when she is supposed to have been in her third trimester, in a bikini, taken by a fellow female student. AD is clearly not pregnant. Media have not yet talked to fellow students, but it can’t be long. There are bound to be other photos of AD in existence taken during the alleged 2nd and 3rd trimesters. Obama campaign are terrified some one will press for her medical records, which have been accessed by CIA.”

        “Moving to Indonesia the Obama campaign are also suppressing the Indonesian immigration and passport records, which I believe show him as a Kenyan citizen, and the naturalisation records. They have not denied Internet claims he was naturalised in Indonesia. If he was a US citizen there should be a visa record to back that up.”

        “Obama Senior was murdered in Kenya in 1982 to silence him. Interesting story re his sister Auma as well — she appears to be a full sister, not a half-sister as he is claiming, i.e. they share the same mother. She was ordered back to Kenya in 2007 to prevent DNA testing …. CIA did a DNA test on the grandparents, using saliva from glasses, which conclusively rules out any relationship between Obama and the Dunhams.”

        “The source said that the Dunham family became involved because Stanley Dunham, Sr. was suspected of espionage. Boeing, he said, has “a 1944 security file on Stanley Dunham in connection with suspected sabotage of B-17G aircraft at their Wichita Kansas plant and the theft of B-29 blueprints, a full set of which were passed to the German Abwehr via Lisbon by June 1944. Ann Dunham appears to have been chosen as the surrogate mother in 1963 because of the family connection to German Intelligence. German assets in the US, including Rezko, who is connected to the Syrian Mukhabarat and the German DVD, sponsored his career.

        “Effectively,” the source concludes, “Obama is a German sleeper agent.”

        Well, this is a lot to take in, and on first reading it struck me that the source had been reading too many Le Carre novels or Bond movies. I mean, really: “The Manchurian Candidate” meets “The Boy from Mombassa”?

        It seemed completely preposterous, and indeed I initially dismissed it as preposterous. Obama a “German sleeper agent”? Of course, in those days the East Germans were a Soviet satellite, and the DDR was perhaps the most feared and ideological of the communist states, with more than a sprinkling of rehabilitated Nazis uncured of their genetic fantasies and experiments. 1961-1963 were the peak years of the Cold War, with Berlin playing a central role in East-West hostilities.

        But what made no sense to me was why anyone in the spy business, or anyone in East Germany for that matter, would give a damn to find a foster parent for a newborn illegitimate offspring of mixed black-white parentage. What made him so special that the Syrians and the German would go to all the trouble or see some potential value in protecting and grooming him? What could possibly make intelligence agencies cultivate from infancy a sleeper agent?

        The source didn’t answer this, nor could I, over the succeeding months of the campaign. We exchanged a few more emails, but the nagging question of “why” anyone would bother with this baby would not leave me. What did come out in the ensuing weeks, however, was a litany of unexplained facts in Obama’s youthful history, of help from strangers in high places all along the way, benefactors who had either Arab-Muslim or Communist-Socialist connections. There was his Islamic education in Indonesia, the fact that he learned the Koran not in Indonesian but in Arabic. There was the fact that in Hawaii the boy was tutored in the ways of revolution by leading black activists, Muslim activists, and Communist activists. Influential black nationalist and Communist Frank Marshall Davis would become a huge influence in the young Obama’s life.

        There was his journey to the third-world, to Pakistan and East Africa, after his first year at Columbia. But things really got strange with the revelation that Khalid al-Mansour, close adviser to a Saudi billionaire and the Saudi royal family, was instrumental in helping Obama get into Harvard Law School (and reportedly Columbia before that), financing his education and advancement.

        It was al-Mansour who asked Percy Sutton, a prominent black lawyer active in the civil rights movement and defending radicals in the 1950s and 1960s, to help Obama get into Harvard. In the interview with a New York news station (see video at left), Sutton described al-Mansour as “the principal adviser to one of the world’s richest men. He told me about Obama and asked him to “write a letter in support of Obama’s application to Harvard Law School, Sutton recalled. “”And his introduction was there is a young man that has applied to Harvard. I know that you have a few friends up there because you used to go up there to speak. Would you please write a letter in support of him?” Sutton obliged:“”I wrote a letter of support of him to my friends at Harvard, saying to them I thought there was a genius that was going to be available and I certainly hoped they would treat him kindly.”
        How in the world would Percy Sutton know that Obama, a young man he had never met, was a “genius”? Why would he say that he met all of the qualifications to be president of the law review, even before he was admitted to the school? One possible clue: It turns out that Sutton was among the lawyers for Malcolm X.

        And why would a big wheel like al-Mansour take such an interest in a self-admitted drug-taking party boy (“I inhaled,” he joked. “That was the whole point” he joked on the campaign trail) from a second-rate college? While helping Obama get into Harvard, the Muslim form Texas was representing top members of the Saudi Royal family, Saudi billionaires Abdul Aziz and Khalid al-Ibrahim, and Prince Alwaleed bin Talal, nephew if King Abdallah of Saudi Arabia. So there was, early on, a direct connection between Obama and Saudi royalty and an aggressive effort by a Saudi agent to make Obama’s way in the world.

        It was this connection to Saudi wealth that has led to Obama being dubbed the “Mansourian candidate”.

        Then there were the revelations about Weather Underground co-founder Bill Ayers and his wife Bernadette Dohrn — unrepentant terrorists and communists both — who helped launch Obama’s political career from their home. Ayers, indeed, may well have ghost-written Obama’s memoir Dreams from my Father, creating the impression that Obama was also skilled in writing as well as “community organizing.”

        More substantially, there was Antoin “Tony” Rezko, the Syrian born real estate wheeler-dealer and convicted racketeer, who helped Obama raise his first campaign funds and assisted him financially, and even facilitated his home purchases.

        There were influential Palestinian scholars and propagandists Rashid Khalidi and Edward Said, colleagues and personal friends of Obama, despite his unconvincing efforts to distance himself from them and squelch his praise for their anti-Israel ideologies.

        There was Reverend Jeremiah Wright, Obama’s spiritual mentor, who conducted his marriage, baptized their children, and gave Obama’s campaign manifesto “Audacity of Hope” its title before being distanced (at least for the duration of the campaign) when their close twenty year relationship came to light.

        And, of course, there is neighbor Louis Farrakhan, current leader of the Nation of Islam, who recently spoke of Obama as the “Messiah” and as Ken Timmerman confirms, enjoys an “open channel” of communication with him.

        Why did all of these important scholars and ideologues, fundraiser and networkers, these millionaires and billionaires – especially from the Arab and Islamic world, and extreme socialist and communist party activists — reach out to help this unknown, undereducated young man, many before Obama was anybody of known importance? Was it just that he was tall and handsome and bright, with a silver tongue?

        Or was there some other factor – a genetic factor, a secret legacy of heredity — that mysteriously opened the doors and wallets and elicited the kindness of strangers?

        Last week, a long and rambling post attributed to one Rudy Schultz was made to the Atlas Shrugs blog of Pamela Geller. The starting point for the post was revelation of school records that show that the supposed mother of Barack Obama enrolled in the University of Washington just a few weeks after her son was purportedly born in Hawaii. But the intention of the poster was apparently to imply that Obama’s father was unlikely to have been Barack Hussein Obama, Senior (photo at left).

        The post provides photos and a video of Malcolm X, with a notation that he and Obama had the same height (6’2-6′-3″) and striking physical resemblances: identical hairline, jawline, and other distinctive facial features, similarities not shared by Barack Hussein Obama, Sr. or other members of the Luo tribe bloodline.

        The post noted striking similarities in speaking cadence and style, not to mention a bright flashing smile and a wry sense of humor. The man born in Nebraska as Malcolm Little also was a light shade of brown, the product of a mother from Grenada who, he said, “looked like a white woman” and a black father.

        See more striking similarities from insider Octaman here.

        The post also traced the path of Malcolm X in the late 1950′s and early 1960′s, a journey that took him to Africa and the young leadership circle to which Barack Hussein Obama Sr. also belonged, including the activist Tom Mboya who was behind the program which airlifted, with US funding, young African leaders to Hawaii to study at the university, a cohort to which Obama senior belonged.

        But Schultz concludes his post by pulling his punches a bit: “While Malcolm X may not be Obama’s biological father, Malcolm X is demonstrably Barack Hussein Obama’s philosophical father, and the lineage is undeniable! Obama Jr. was sired in the social soup stirred by Malcolm X.”

        While Schultz backed away from claiming that Obama’s biological father may in fact be Malcolm X, the hereditary claim cannot be discounted. If he was indeed the illegitimate offspring of Malcolm – the closest that one can get to “royalty” in the messianic broth of black radical Islamic and Communistic politics – that would explain the otherwise inexplicable:

        why this “illegitimate” baby, and later this young man – a druggie and underachiever — would have had paved for him the royal road to privilege and power, paid for his Ivy League education, got him jobs and a home, raised millions of dollars for his political career, got him selected to address the DNC in 2004, got him into the senate in 2006, and led him straight to where he is today, just two years hence, on the verge of the US presidency, powered by hundreds of millions of untraceable overseas contributions.

        In the minds of the leftist and Islamic leaders, he is the heir to the throne of “freedom fighters”, the revolutionary prodigal son – heir to legacy of black powers and black Islam — come home to rule.

        Nothing short of a DNA test is going to prove who Obama Jr.’s father really is, or, indeed who is real mother is, or is not. His long-suppressed birth certificate, which he wrote about possessing in Dreams from my Father and which Hawaii now admits is on file, could help solve the mystery.

        No one to my knowledge has explored the possibility that Stanley Ann may not be the birth-mother. That would explain the lack of hospital records in Honolulu and the fact that no one can remember seeing her pregnant. Suddenly she just appeared in Washington state with a little baby boy.

        There is, too, a curious comment that Stanley Ann Dunham reportedly made after high school, remembered by a friend, that “I don’t need to get married or date to have a baby.” And the fact that in June 1960 her family – who were reportedly highly sympathetic with left-wing causes — suddenly left Washington state for Hawaii, where they continued to be involved with socialist-communist causes and personalities, such as Frank Marshall Davis (identified by Obama only as “Frank” in Obama’s Dreams from my Father), who proved so influential in his upbringing.

        There is also new information, published in Atlas Shrugs and confirmed elsewhere, from the University of Hawaii that she was only enrolled only in the fall of 1960, and that from the Fall of 1961 (weeks after Barack Jr. was reportedly born) and through the following spring, she was enrolled at the University of Washington.

        There is the fact that she abandoned this baby on repeated occasions, and the fact that Obama returned the favored when he refused to visit her as she sickened and died. If she was merely his foster mother, then she was just a means to an end, to be discarded when she had outlived her usefulness.

        If Barack Hussein Obama II is Malcolm X’s biological son and ideological heir, it would uniquely explain the mystery of why he was so generously helped by so many Arab and communist “friends in high places” long before he was a “somebody.”

        Malcolm ensured his secret son would learn the ways of Islam, of revolution, tutored by the finest socialist ideologues of his time, and the future, funded by Saudi and Syrian financiers. He would be groomed for leadership, educated and trained to organize the community called the United States of America.

        Malcolm broke with Elijah Muhammad in large measure because the then-leader of the Nation of Islam had conducted illicit affairs and sired illegitimate children. If Malcolm himself had sired a boy, it is not something he would have wanted to advertise, or to bring along with him in his hectic and dangerous revolutionary path. But he may well have arranged to give the boy a first-class upbringing and education, free from the burden of his own violent legacy, his history as a convicted felon, his likely fate as a martyr, to realize the legacy he never could. He knew he was “a walking dead man,” marked for death — how could he perpetuate his principles beyond the grave?

        Malcolm X was marginalized even from the black leadership after he said, following the assassination of John F. Kennedy, that the “chickens had come home to roost.” That term would be resurrected by Rev. Jeremiah Wright, much to Obama’s chagrin, in a sermon discussing the reasons for the Islamic attacks on the United States, reasons that Obama echoed in his own post-9/11 statements, in somewhat less inflammatory terms.

        Malcolm himself was assassinated in 1965, reportedly by agents from the Nation of Islam.

        If indeed Obama is not just Malcolm’s spiritual son but his biological one as well, it would represent the realization of a lifelong preparation to seize power, not by guns but by genes, and the genius of Obama’s handlers, mentors and assistants along the way who prepared his path to power.

        According to this scenario, the sleeper agent is now wide awake, although it is also conceivable that Obama himself may not be fully aware of the role he was programmed to play. Nor is it clear who has supplanted his initial handlers — which my source identified as East German and Syrian — although the Saudis and their allies, including those within the US government and not just the Democratic side of the aisle, clearly seem implicated with pulling some of the strings and pouring some of the huge funding that has brought him to where he is today.

        Those who have helped him reach to the threshold of power — some knowingly and some “useful idiots” — have been working in concert to fulfill the revolutionary goals of Malcolm’s by putting his boy in power, using the system to destroy the system. Early voting. ACORN. Untraceable online funds. Brilliant. But that, of course, is just the means to the end.

        Barack Obama wrote, in Dreams from My Father, of the huge impact this black revolutionary hero’s memoir had on him, as none others did: “Only Malcolm X’s autobiography seemed to offer something different. His repeated acts of self-creation spoke to me.” Self-creation indeed.

        If Malcolm X secretly sired Barack Obama, then the title Dreams from My Father would indeed take on a whole new meaning, with Obama Sr. revealed as a kind of paternal proxy, a stand-in for a revolutionary of a higher spiritual and political order whose identity the self-creating son could never reveal if his own ambitions, and his real father’s ambitions for him, were to be realized.

        In 1964, the year before his death, Malcolm gave an address, “Ballots or Bullets” (audio available here) in which he urged African Americans to turn away from violence and create revolutionary change through the US electoral system.

        If the O is in fact an X, and wins the red, white and blue tic-tac-toe on Tuesday to become the President and Command in Chief of the United States then, truly, America’s chickens will have come home to roost.

        Red States may soon take on a whole new meaning.

        Malcolm X was one of this wretched country’s Greatest Leaders—beyond question.

        Yes, I know, lots of the PLD readers are terrified of his Mythic status—it is mostly because of the last name, X—for some reason that just gives Caucasoids the willies….. I always thought it sounded really, really cooool….like “H. Rap Brown” or “Stokely Carmichael”. As a little twelve year-old White boy, I dug the way those cool names made my teachers nervous!

        The people who decry the legacy left us by Malcolm X just really have a beef with the “idea” of America, the notion of the Constitution. All Malcolm X wanted was to see it realized….

  • Jared

    So whom exactly are you blaming for this, Obama or the College administration Or Harvard. What i see is probably enjoying the political physio.

  • Harold Olsen

    Seeing as you’re white and Obama’s black, the left will just accuse you of racism. So, this is a wasted effort. Nice try, though.

    • Barb Leddy

      You are right about them crying racism, but he is not black, by the time you add up the various races in him. He’s half white, 1 fourth Middle Easterner (His Dad’s father was at least half and his Mom was Kenyan) so at the very least Obama is only 1/4 black and I think I heard somewhere that he’s actually only 1/8 black! That makes him a fraud, there are a lot of whites in this country with more black blood in them, especially those with ancestors from the South! He just drew the black card as they say. So technically if you say anything against him it couldn’t really be racist against blacks! Maybe against Middle East people but that is a stretch too. One thing is for sure, he is NOT an American!

  • Mike in MI

    Hey, how about this?;
    Doesn’t every college, especially prestigious Ivy League schools, take pictures – both group and individual of their graduates? Don’t they have personal interest bits about all the grads they are so proud of and their expectations for the future? Aren’t all their “diversity students” specially lauded and featured for their success at such a great college – all their extra-curricular activities, clubs, frats, sports (gym, basketball), efforts to be accepted and included, personal or professional development functions and co-ed activities? (Surely, some girls would have been attracted to such an eminence? ….Boys?) Did he need or use tutors? Who were they? Do they remember some poor “Indonesian” student who spoke awfully fluent Americanese?
    What about such an interesting and widely traveled young man? He’s been to such an exotic and forbidden place as P-A-K-I-S-T-A-N with experiences and access; but not even a yearbook mention?
    Look, nobody drops from the womb groomed and polished for such accomplishment. Even the Dali Lama had to be prepped, nurtured and trained for his preeminent calling to advanced spirit activity. (Don’t think any kind of high political or world leadership office isn’t spirit influenced – one side or the other.)
    It’s like Yul Brenner’s “The King and I” song,.. You’ve got to be carefully taught!!!

    • Mike in MI

      Just thinkin’, but wouldn’t such a public spirited and concerned young idealist have been out doing things in the volunteer community…like preps for later “community organizing” campaigns? That would certainly be Columbia Univ. yearbook fodder.

        “Mike in MI,”

        GREAT POINTS. I GUARANTEE, LIBERALS WILL TRY TO DISCREDIT Mr. Root’s ARTICLE.

      • Kate8

        Mike in MI – Most excellent points, of course. This guy’s got more red flags than fly in China. Even some on the Left are starting to ask ???, except for the ones who have a vested interest in NOT questioning.

        Other questions I have raised but no one else has: Who writes, not just one, but TWO (auto)biographies when they are yet a virtual unknown nobody? (Answer: no one.)

        When has ANY candidate running for ANY office flaunted such works of fiction to the public during their campaign? When has ANY candidate flooded the media with childhood photos, wedding pics,… and claims which can actually be proved false, like the claim of being a Professor of Constitutional Law? And why am I the only one who sees something weird about this?

        When has any other candidate for any office SEALED every iota of info about his history, including recent Senate voting records, so no one could refute these claims? I mean, he surely knew that there would be a huge backlash of those who wanted proof. Either he truly believed that Americans are now THAT stupid (well, plenty of them apparently are), or he knew that the PTB would see that no challenges got anywhere… Plus, he has unlimited taxpayer funds to stop any official inquiry in its tracks. No media interest, non-issue…

        Obviously, he was trying to set up a (fictional) history, because his real one wouldn’t fly in America. And the really sad part is that we have a huge swath of population which is so dumbed-down and mind-controlled that they don’t see any problem here….

        One Obot I mentioned the sealed records to simply said, “Don’t they ALL do that?”

        How sad is that.

    • moonbeam

      My sentiments exactly, Mike. Hey Barry, WHERE’S THE YEAR BOOK???? Another question that begs an answer.

      Hey Mr. Root! Whip that thang right on out so we can see what you’re workin’ with. Surely YOUR year book has the answer I seek. Help us out here Mr. Root. You hold the key to the locked door of mysterious mystery. Is Barry’s pic with horse teeth grinning in your year book???

      See there Barry, you left some stones unturned. Not all has been swept under the rug. You forgot a few crumbs. Turn over your stones, Barry. Let’s see what’s underneath. Now cough!

      How do you know there was a womb involved? I thought Obama was the product of Saul Alinsky and Marlon Brando on Krypton. They foresaw the future and knew Hillary would make a key mistake (voting to give Little W a chance to make history) so Obama could be programmed to be President. He wasn’t really at Colombia or Harvard – that was his evil twin played by Chris Rock.

      As for Wayne Root, give me a break. He was NEVER anywhere near ANY of the cool kids, ever!

    • http://roypatterson.wordpress.com Roy Patterson

      Does anyone remember the story that both President Obama and Mrs. Obama, who were lawyers in Illinois, resigned from the Illinois Bar Association at different times. A note from a friend of mine, who is a lawyer, says people resign from the bar just before they get dis-bared. That’s what Bill Clinton did.
      This is going anywhere, just like the story on this website, because the main stream media won’t touch it.
      No one is talking about the huge national debt we have and growing every day. $15 trillion+. Who is going to pay it? It never be repaid. Unless something happens, you can look for run-a-way inflation in the future, just like Germany in the 1930′s

    If you get a chance, see the video “Dreams from my REAL Father” which also digs heavily into Obama’s past. We know for a fact he lived and went to school in Jakarta, Indonesia from ages 6-10. From there, he went to Hawaii for 8 years and attended Punahou School. At age 18 he stepped foot on the continental USA for the first time since infancy. While in Indonesia, he studied Islam. In Hawaii, he met his mentor, Frank Marshall Davis (Obama refers to him as Uncle Frank in his book). Davis is an avowed communist and publishes a communist newspaper in Honolulu. Davis teaches young Barrack all about Marxism. watch it!

        Alex..Palin16 exhibits the intellect of the usual TP and far right minion. Somehow living in another country, living in the 50th state, and having a closeness with someone is bad. Davies may have been a believer in liberal causes. And that is bad why? That Pres. Obama is aware and has taken the effort to be familiar with all ideologies. Those who choose to remain ignorant and suspect intellectual curiosity, are usually the ones who fall into the TP / American Taliban control.

      • Dale left coast

        Flashey . . . Pres O has demonstrated over and over again . . . that the job is “way above his pay grade” . . . no time in the history of the USA has a pres spent so much in so little time. No pres has hidden more of his history than the O . . . and no one has demonstrated such incompetence as the O when he is off the prompter . . .

        Well, ~ not that it matters that much but it is you that wishes to play the compare game.

        “W” could not deliver a speech with or without notes or a teleprompter, and actually “O” is a very capable orator, very articulated for the most part, while this does confuse some people that enjoyed “W”, s tough guy John Wayne and James Cagney impersonations.

        And never in the history of warfare has some much military power and might been used so ineffectively until Bush /Chaney administration, while any gains made might be counted only in R&D of advanced desert warfare at the protracted cost of 7 trillion dollars, 6,472 dead US ,soldiers, 49431 wounded and what every Chaney’s geological reports reveal for future extraction that his is not sharing.

      ann dunham (wife of obama sr) had young barack at the age of 18, she was born in 1942 and he was born in 1961 before she had her 19th birthday. she was living with her parents far from the university of hawaii campus and felt alienated and alone after her lively school days in seattle. along comes this guy who actually pays attention to her, and not only that marries her, a fellow student she met in class from kenya (who was already married to kezia there). at that age and in her circumstances and with her personal stand-offish inhibitions, she would never have played musical beds as some have alleged. she never would have even walked by frank marshall davis even in the street. this is what the obama book by dave maraniss presents with mountains of evidence, but the book doesn’t hide very shadowy and questionable circumstances with the future president, including whether of not he ever attended class at either occidental or columbia. he was a doper, a drinker and a bedder, and wouldn’t have been on anyone’s shortlist as a prospect for any success whatsoever. if i drew him for a roommate in my own college days i would go right to the housing office and say, can you find me someone else?

      • Flashy

        uv… feel free to substitute “boys” for “broads”. I was using the masculine because Obama is a male as am I.

  • cawmun cents

    Unfortunately Mr.Root,there will be no such inquiry.
    Why?
    Because the odds on favorite to win this election is Obama.
    They WANT to keep him there to soothe the savage masses,when the plot thickens.
    Ask yourself why they would choose to run someone so akin to Obama?
    It is so that he can give the illusion of propriety to the minority groups,while the elite pander to the opposing dissenters.
    Exactly what you have now.
    Other than a few seats changing hand here and there,change will not be coming soon.
    Business as usual.
    There have been comments to this effect,since the grey man took office.
    The stories have been there lurking in the shadows,but none issue forth to challenge the grey man.
    His ties to radicals have been neatly pruned from the record,and since no left-minded media mogul would dare form an opinion on this mans qualifications(Two words,OPRAH WINFREY)the TV world of reality shows,will never ever disparage his fine name.

    • eddie47d

      Interesting story but to say Mitt Romney is an “innocent man” is a far stretch. The whole article sounded like a cover up for Mitt and his lack of transperancy on those tax returns. Then to say “I’m not saying Reid did anything wrong” but then to make accusations against him is some pretty smooth writing in itself. Now maybe Reid is playing that same game and they all stink. I don’t care much for false accusations by anyone or even cover-ups so Obama needs to come clean too. I have heard of college students who never attend class but pass the course on the final exam. That could be interpreted as either they are cheating or are very intelligent and never had to sit in those boring classes.

      • Kate8

        Talk is cheap, edduh. I’ll bet dollars to doughnuts you’ll vote for Obama even if he refuses to disclose himself. And I’m sure he will. I mean, why cave now when the entire media and federal system is bought off and gives cover?

        They are all dirty. Lying, treasonous, self-serving scum. So vote partyline, right?

        Hypocrit.

      • JeffH

        So Eddie – why the millions spent to seal records? Where did the millions come from? How did he afford two Ivy league colleges and get in with bad grades? Why are the records sealed? Why did he lie about being a full law professor at Harvard when in fact he was a guest lecturer – made two lectures and took a leave? How did he get a $1.6 MILLION house on a community organizers salary as $12,000?

        I know Kate and Jeff think that this blog is my whole life like it is for them so they make comments like chirp,chirp,chirp (Kate) Jeff doesn’t like the fact that I don’t like false accusations from any side so apparently that means he will accept falsehoods from his side. So go ahead and step in that doggie do do Jeff for you just ratted yourself out. Now slick Kate I could be voting for Obama and maybe you’ll be voting for Romney.

    • Flashy

      Cawmun…the reason there wasn’t a strong candidate willing to take on President Obama is that any quality candidate wouldn’t be able to say they’[d have done much different than the policies this administration has followed. It is, by any reasonable legitimate measure, a conservative Moderate administration. The only candidate willing to take on this President and succeed in getting through the primaries are those who, in the end, lied and faked and hid and played dirty with the facts and reality. I remain amused by the lack of vetting the GOP demanded of Romney…and which is now being open hunting season by Obama and the Dems.

      Pawlenty and Huntsman were solid and would be far ahead right now. But the TP did them in and thus guaranteed a tough but winning election for President Obama. if anyone asks me what I believe the best thing the TP has done? Giving us Romney and knocking out Huntsman.

      know why Pres. Obama will win and carry an enthused mandate into his next term? Because he has shown two characterisitcs the Moderates and progressives have dreamed about for years in their candidate. He won’t succumb to the shrill cries of the Right and cede a policy because it may be unpopular…and he doesn’t back down from a fight, instead taking it right to the opposition.

    Don’t hold your breath, Wayne.
    It does seem surprisingly stupid that the Dems would base their attacks on Mitt’s non-disclosure of his tax returns, when Obama has spent four years protecting his history from scrutiny by the people he supposedly works for. Even Stranger is that it’s gone on for so long now without a strong response from Mitt.
    I think the fix is in.

    • Alex

      The “Dems” are not basing their attack on Mitt Romney on the fact that the ONLY tax records released by him cover the two years AFTER Bernie Madoff went to prison.

      Romney is being attacked by people who understand that Mitt will reward his backers by sending OUR CHILDREN—not HIS—to Iran. Just as Cheneybush had planned the invasion of Iraq before they even took office so as to fatten Haliburton, etc, Mitt will do what the GOP so often does—-push fear in order to pump money to their friends in the War Industries.

      This is why Republican presidents are always tying us up with little wars against paper tigers—Grenada, Iraq, El Salvador, Panama, etc. Invent enemies, inject fear, escalate
      hostility, send in our sons and daughters. Increase the flow of our money to the biggest Welfare Queens ever—-our war Profiteers.

      Romney’s tax masquerade is secondary.

        Alex, your 100% correct! I can care a less about Romney’s tax records but what I see in Romney is a hypocrite swinging back and forth in front of that wall in Israel along with other Jews. He is not a president yet and he is already invading Iran. I have never liked Republicans because they are war mongers and they attack the meek just to take their oil and make their money along with the weapon’s and oil industry in the USA. My question is: Why don’t they attack China or Russia? They have tons of atomic weapons just as we do and Israel as well; so, where is the problem? In my book, Iran has all the right to produce their atomic weapons as deterrence from the USA and Israel and the same North Korea. If the USA and Israel, along with some other European countries don’t want Iran to have atomic weapon, no one in the world should have them including us and Israel. I never believed in any president as I have seen what all of them have done…Republicans or Democrats…so, I will not vote for no one as I have done so far.

        If anyone would take the time to research the, historical, documented facts they wouldn’t become victims of mindless party politics and throwing verbal stones at each other while they confirm their unfortunate mutual ignorance. If they would use their eyes and ears, four times as much as they used their mouths, , then there would be a possibility, however slim, that they might could come together and defeat their common enemy. I realize that in a large way I am “casting my pearls before swine”, but I do it in sincere hope that someone somewhere, might wake up and see the light.

        All of Americas’ problems, with few exceptions, are much like a huge tree full of thorny branches, the thorny branches in this illustration would represent the many prickly problems. Pruning the branches will always produce more branches and make the problems multiply. The ONLY way to get rid of these monumental problems is to pull the tree up by its roots, and BURN THE TREE. Instead we continually fight tooth and nail over which fertilizer (politician) to use to make it grow bigger.

        This tree was planted (for the 4th time in history) by President Woodrow Wilson who later confessed that by doing so he had “ruined his country”. He was assisted by a skeleton congress while most were out for the holidays. The tree had been previously up rooted and burned by President Andrew Jackson leaving America DEBT FREE.

        The TREE is the PRIVATE CENTRAL BANK (see the Communist Manifesto 10 planks) that goes by the name FEDERAL RESERVE. It is not Federal nor does it have reserves. It is merely a powerful group of thugs who were given an unlawful private counterfeiting franchise to print Americas’ currency and LOAN to us that which was already OURS in the first place.
        .
        Here’s how the SCAM works. Americas’ currency that was printed and issued for our use WAS issued DEBT FREE, not borrowed from a third party loan shark but from each other. Americans borrowing from other Americans and owing each other is good healthy business.

        Now the BANKSTERS can create a BILLION DOLLARS in currency for about $1000.00 dollars worth of ink and paper…… these days it’s just done with a keystroke on a computer. At this point congressional DISTRICT OF CRIMINALS in Wash, DC borrow TRILLIONS (electronically created out of thin air), and bury, the supposed uses for the loan in 1000′s of pages of treasonous legislation, then waste and embezzle as much as they possibly can, lie about it, point fingers at each other, and then scream for more…..all the while hard working Americans are made the unwitting co-signer to the loan and saddled for decades to repay this MASSIVE FRAUD.
        Then we are told that we can’t afford medical treatment any more and have to ration care and
        figure out ways to kill off the elderly and newborns to reduce the needs of the unaffordable population..ie you and me and our loved ones.
        Here is an illustration of what makes this scam so diabolical. Imagine if you will America, in your minds eye as an old west town out of your favorite western, and everyone in the town decided to repay all of their loans with cash and assets. That is they took all their cash, and put a cash value on all livestock, farms, homes, businesses, personal belongings..EVERY THING. Now they pool all of the money and assets to make one large payment to pay off the bank, and start over with the clothes on their back. They STILL can not repay the BANK because only the PRINCIPLE WAS CREATED and loaned into circulation. The INTEREST IS NEVER CREATED. The inevitable end is a shortage of currency in circulation and a CRASH (1929). After the principle is paid their can never be enough to pay off the interest too! So more loans on top of more loans and the FRAUDULENT DEBT gets deeper and deeper. So then orchestrating a WAR or two is good for business and the story continues…A good book for details see, “The Creature From Jekyll Island” G. Edward Griffin AMAZON BOOKS $4.95

        Alex,
        So your hero Obimbo is perfect? So, why does he insist on keeping his records sealed, he pass concealed? O’crap has been in office for, how long now, three and a half years? He promised that the troops would ALL come home. Why are there troops still in the middle east? 3 1/2 years and still can’t get them home.

        As far as Romneys tax records – Let me see if I understand…I should be more outraged about what Romney does with his money than Obimbo does with mine?

        The Repulicans are warmongers?

        Doug says — “Romney only needs 50% plus one … more vote to win. That’s all We patriotic Americans need to win”.

        Thanks for your excellent commentary Alex. As long as Romney continues to ride along with the Bomb Iran crowd, the likelihood of him dragging the US into another useless Mideast war needs to highlighted.

      • ML

        So little wars hmmm it was a Democratic who voided the 13th & 14% Amendments to the Constitution you know the one’s that prevent a draft,a conscription of Citizens of the US. A Democrat every single time. So don’t talk about Mitt sending our kids in my case grand kids to die in Iran. So let’s look a the larger paradigm.Vietnam dem started it republican finished it. Korea dem started republican finished it. WWII dems at both ends, WW1 dem starts repub ends. In fact with the exception of the Civil War when Lincoln illegally instituted a draft the republicans have never instituted a draft ONLY democrats always have. Obama is still allowing our sons and daughters to die in a region we need not be in any longer. He should use one of his famous executive orders to end the mess but I bet he won’t, not now not ever. So if Iran is your worry take a lesson from history and get the democrat out of office.

      • Jeff

        Historically, there’s a bit to what you say. BUT, Democrats learned the lesson of Viet Nam; Republicans have not. Carter- no military commitments. Clinton – only Kosovo and that involved No Troops. Obama – ended Iraq; ending Afghanistan (too slowly for my taste); and Libya – No Troops. Compare that record to the Bushes and Reagan. That being said, I can’t believe either Reagan or Bush 1 would have invaded Iraq under the circumstances as they existed. A bridge too idiotic for any but W-Cheney! Romney? Let’s hope we don’t find out. He’d be so afraid of a challenge from the right, he’d be likely to bomb Iran as soon as some general said he should.

        As Eisenhower knew and JFK learned, sometimes you don’t listen to the generals on the ground. They may know how to get from A to B, but it’s the President’s job to know where B is.

      • DaveH

        It’s not a Democrat/Republican thing, Jeff. It’s a Big Government Politician/Crony Capitalist thing. They work hand in hand with both parties. As long as people are ignorant of that fact, the Politicians will just keep playing the zealots off one another and growing their Power.

        So thats the same reason it was Democrat presidents that got us into WW II, Korea and you guessed it Vietman.

      • http://www.facebook.com/maynard.runkle Maynard Runkle

        Great post Alex. The only disagreement I have is that Democrats Johnson and Clinton went along with the military industrial complex and Obama has as well. JFK, as documents that were released under the Freedom of Information Act show, blocked attempts to false flag us into war by rejecting a proposal to knock down a US plane and set off explosions in Miami and Washington, D.C. and then blame Cuba. I believe it was called Operation Northwoods. He also signed a paper that was rescinded by Johnson to bring our personnel home from Vietnam by the end of ’63.
        Johnson went along with the false flag Gulf of Tonkin incident. Nixon escalated by bringing the attack to neutral soil in Cambodia. Reagan and Bush gave us Iran-Contra, and Bush the Gulf War putting out false propaganda about babies being ripped from their Incubators and WTC ’93 where the FBI gave real explosives to extremists and were exposed but no action was taken against them. Saddam and Osama were brought to power by our CIA, to later be used as scapegoats, The Oklahoma City Bombing is suspicious because there were bombs inside and unexploded bombs removed after as documented by local news stations.
        The most horrific false flag in history came then. 9/11 videos, chemicals in the dust, eye witness reports, the videos, extreme heat hotter than jet fuel ever gets was observed in the debris pile for weeks and fragmented bones found on top of the Deutsche Bank Building in 2008 are allclear evidence of explosions at the WTC. The building with the best defenses in the world, the Pentagon, was supposedly hit by a jet. This defies credibility in itself. Furthermore, the Pilots for Truth analyzed the black box and it shows the cockpit door of FL 77 was never opened and the plane was never low enough to hit the Pentagon. The jet engines would have dug into the lawn if it hit where the first floor hole was photographed but the lawn was in good shape and they quickly covered it up with gravel. Plane parts, bags, and passengers were strangely missing. Many accountants looking for the TRILLIONS Rumsfeld announced unaccounted for the day before were casualties.

        Who knows what they’ll pull to get us to attack Iran, but I think Romney would do it in a heart beat whereas Obama shows a little more backbone.

        If Obama did not go to Columbia, how was he admitted to Harvard and elected President of the Harvard Law Review?
        I believe that Obama may have had connections with the CIA as Occidental is known for that and his parents may have had CIA involvement at the University of Hawaii, his father in Kenya and after the divorce and remarriage his mother in Indonesia.

        Osama bin Laden was supported by our CIA when the Soviets attacked Afghanistan. He repeatedly denounced 9/11 and side by side photos of him and the imposter on the videotape supposedly found in Afghanistan after our invasion compared with the known Osama reveal two different men. Al Qaeda means “toilet” in Arabic and it is highly unlikely any Muslim group would call themselves that. It is an invention of the CIA.
        Of course there are a lot more terrorists than ever now, a natural consequence of attacking, invading, kidnapping, torturing and imprisoning them.That was the intention in order to fill the vacuum left by the disappearance of the Commie threat.

      • Jeff

        Maynard:

        Clinton, in his 8 years in office, only committed us to one military action, Kosovo, and it involved no troops. I don’t know what military pressure he either succumbed to or resisted, but we sent no troops anywhere. JFK learned the hard way about the military after the Bay of Pigs, but he learned well and knew NOT to take the Military’s advice during the Cuban Missile Crisis. I still think he would not have taken us on the LBJ path in Viet Nam. All presidents have advisors but the most important decisions are not made by the advisors but by the president.

        Do you really take the premise of this article seriously? Just because the author says he doesn’t remember Obama at Columbia, he wasn’t there? Then, you concoct some elaborate conspiracy to account for his admission to Harvard Law School. Wouldn’t it be simpler to say Wayne Root doesn’t know what he’s talking about? His evidence is “gut instinct.” What if Harry Reid said that?

        Mort, I think you missed the point Alex was making ~ WWI & II were not paper tigers , Korea was in response to China exploiting it’s position and a defeated enemy (Japan) post war conditions and the entire world weary of war. It was a logical move for China to make.

        And I’m really not sure what Nam was about and I fought it. The history reads like a poorly written novel. While it is true the Kong were ruthless to peasant villages, doing things no other animal would do to another to gain obedience. But what actually started it, damned if I know, ~ the French leaving would be my guess, natural rubber had became less desirable as a product for market. ???? There was a power vacuum, I know there was a coup and double cross in leadership. America refused to talk with Ho, that was a big mistake. Ho was a patriot. What happen after America pulled out is a grisly story few historians want to discuss even today. It wasn’t pretty.

        Cuba Fiasco was an invasion gone wrong , while you must remember The Great Northern Bear enjoyed sunning there and installing his fireworks.

        Kosovo was an air campaign to stop genocide and human atrocities that were being carried out on a wholesale level.

        None of these incidents are equal on any level. In some cases it was poor GOP foreign policy that created the tension and left for the next administration to deal with the diplomatic mess. ~ Time is unbroken line.

        Oh I see Alex, you worry about that Mitt might send our sons and daughters into harms way but ignore Obama’s expansion of the war in Afghanistan, getting involved in other conflicts in Syria and Yemen, not to mention to mention his “hit list” which includes American citizens. That’s very interesting you take this position. Your arguments are full of speculations but don’t seem to contain any substantive evidence.

        You make unsubstantiated accusations about Bush and Chaney starting the war in Iraq to enrich Haliburton but say nothing about Obama wasting a half billion on Solyndra. I thought the Iraq war was “blood for oil”, not Haliburton. Have you been listening to the shameless lies against Mitt by the Obama supporters?

        Mitt has a sterling record of successes in leadership roles, numerous accomplishments, a flawless character and a record of giving of his time and money to worthy causes. Yet a group of political hacks like Harry Reid craft lie after lie to try and bring down Mitt Romney. Obama’s solution to problem solving is a round of golf and leave the work to someone else. His record as a leader is dismal at best. For more details to to the Obamanator page on thoughts.com and get a true record of Obama’s track record both before and after his Presidency.

        You can hate rich people all you want but I never got a job from a poor person. I never had a rich person pull a gun on me and rob me. Please don’t tell me rich people are robbing poor people to get their wealth. That’s not even logical. Wealth is created not taken from poor people. Socialism, like Obama’s fighting to instill in America, kills initiative and promotes a “welfare mentality”. A vote for Obama is a vote to continue to swim in this stagnant quagmire of an economy while he creates more debt at a record pace. A vote for Obama is a vote to eliminate the Constitution of the United States which is the very Constitution Obama swore to protect. On a more personal level I find Obama to be an arrogant narcissist which in my estimation puts him a couple notches below a sickening, disgusting maggot. He’ll not get my vote.

      • Jeff

        Next time you should remove Romney’s diamond-studded member from your mouth before posting.

        I wasn’t aware Romney did it all for us. I will definitely reconsider.

        I’ve reconsidered and I still think he’ll try to sell Michigan to China. Rick Perry was right about the vulture capital thing. Romney made most of his money at Bain by loading vulnerable companies with debt, taking a good share for their “fees,” and walking away leaving the company in bankruptcy. Not only that, they made a practice of looting pension funds and cancelling workers’ health care.

        I know that Bain also had a true venture capital side and they had some successes. But they sucked hundreds of millions of dollars from companies that might have had a chance to survive without Bain’s “help.”

        Now, he wants to be the only recent candidate to not release multiple years of tax returns. The Prince and Princess have released “all you people need” to evaluate the superior lifestyle of the Romneys. The reason Harry Reid’s comments “have legs” is because everyone knows Romney is the kind of slickster who will get away with anything he can concerning his taxes. He has hired lobbyists to write tax laws favorable to him and he has exploited fraudulent tax shelter schemes in the past.

        First off, Mitt Romney won’t send his sons to Iran because they are too young. Just like Obama won’t send his daughters because they are too young. Second, the war with Iraq, Obama is still keeping it going. AND, during his Nobel Peace Prize acceptance speech, he stated that we need a strong military to deal with nations like Iraq and Iran, so don’t tell us it’s just Republicans that are warmongers. Third, Republicans aren’t the only ones spreading hate and fear. Didn’t Obama pass the NDAA which enables the government and its officers to ILLEGALLY arrest and detain Americans for an indeterminate period of time just for voicing their opinions? And didn’t Obama allow more predator drones to attack Iraq than Bush? OH! and isn’t Obama trying to raise the debt ceiling just so he can spend more taxpayer money? Money we don’t have. And isn’t he also letting the Federal Reserve create more money, thus devaluing the American dollar even more? I could have sworn Germany and Russia did the same thing after WWI. Look how THEY turned out.

        I thank you for your son’s service. Have you seen how much Obama has improved the benefits and services that your son will have when he comes home?

        Allow me to jump in here, ~ First allows us to accept or at the the least consider so obvious facts and I will offer them by the numbers.

        1. These wars were “W”‘s administrations wars.

        2. W and many of his inner circle and supported and wanted these wars

        3. These wars were opposed by many including Obama.

        4. Opposition to these wars was not strong enough to stop them.

        5. These wars were never funded, no American was asked to pay for them

        6. These war(s) and their planing was poorly conceived, rushed and under equipped

        7. Senior Pentagon staff, warned of bad planing and were ignored

        8. Senior Pentagon staff retired early rather then be a part of a known debacle.

        9. Watch the best military in the world fight these wars was like watching a dog trying to eat peanut butter.

        10. Bush leadership of the military failed to produce Bin Laden (claiming he did know where he was and it really didn’t matter)

        11.Obama’s administration inherited a military nightmare, with no end in sight, stating the first order of business was locate and kill BIn Laden and bring these war to a close.

        12.With a stronger commitment to end these wars and bring in Bin Laden came greater efforts and greater troop strength and more material and supplies which your son has been a part of. (Nam was my war and I served in much the same purpose)

        13. It took 5 years for Nixon to close out the war that he inherited .

        14 In 3 1/2 years of renew efforts American soldiers have located and terminated Bin Laden and closed down one war and we still have one to go.

        15. Thank you for your son’s great effort, your family’s investment and improved leadership with a solid commitment to bring this debacle to a final closure and the 7 trillion dollars American’s have dug out of their sofa cushions to paid for it all as wealthy arms dealers have enjoy the greatest transfer of wealth in history and beloved and praised for their cleverness and ingenuity.

    • Deerinwater

      I believe that every modern president has found it necessary to limit personal history for the most obvious reasons, if you don’t understand or accept those reasons perhaps you need to educate yourself with the activities of the Secret Service and the daunting task they preform to keep our heads of state safe for all the weirdos and nut cases that walk around in a Free Nation where being a nut is not a crime.

      It seems that Mr. Romney wishes to exclude his Tax Returns from disclosure which is contrary to standard practice as Mitt is the GOP’s only candidate and asking the American people for their support while making claims he is a business man and understands business matters. It would seem only natural for the American people to want to know more about these business practices, especially since Mitt Romney is the one that brought the subject up in the first place.

      Obama is the president, Mitt Romney is not. So by default, Obama has some things working for him regarding matters of disclosure. I believe that it’s referred to as Executive Privileged, an entitlement and tool used by all past administrations for many various and unsundry reasons. It has cut both ways on many occasions.

      This is a card game, where not all but many cards are played face down. In this case Romney really needs to show us his “openers”, it’s Jacks or better to continue. We trust him, but it needs to be verified and a matter of sound business practices that he claims that he understands so well.

      All of this rumor of what Obama did or didn’t do is not germane to the issue at hand and more school yard folly and childish bickering.

      If Mitt want to play the game, that is how it’s played. ~ His history and documentation is being request now and actually, since Mitt is the only GOP candidate being offered , it’s rather late.

      If an election came be bought which we all know that they have and that they can, this is not the time to start ignoring the rules of standard procedure.

      I will accept the outcome of a fair election, regardless of who wins and it’s my hope the rest of you feel the same way.

Your “jacks or better” analogy backfires when and if you decide to hold obama to the same standard. We are still waiting for his “jacks or better”. He shut everything down before the 2008 election and refused to answer questions choosing to hide behind the privacy argument which lunatic liberals use only when they think it can benefit their lying, stealing ways. Mr. Root is right on with his hypothesis which I was espousing in 2007. Show us ANYTHING dictator-wannabe obama. You are disgusting and a disgrace to America.

        Deer….As usual, Root is playing to emotions rather than any reasoning. He is relying on the TP Trilogy. For instance “By attacking Romney’s tax records, Obama’s team of Chicago hit men creates a problem that doesn’t exist.”

        Eh? So the records of a candidate which will disclose just how much he invests in America, how much he has played the game, just how much he has stepped up for paying back what this society has afforded him, just how true his words today are and where his interests lie…aren’t an issue? And his continuous refusal against all calls, from the Right AND the left doesn’t cause suspicion?

        Versus what Root is alleging. BTW…I can state that one doesn’t get into Harvard Law or become editor of the Review by being mediocre. And I couldn’t tell you who was in my Pol Sci Department in my college..and Root is kinda stretching it claiming he would know of everyone. Believe that claim by Root? Give me a break.

Most all (shared pain and suffering if you like). undergrad? LOL…ain’t no way. too big, too varied, and who cared?

He is an idiot who has, along with other presidents, destroyed our country and now we are more than 100 trillion in debt to be precise. Our problems began back in 1967 when Linden B. Johnson changed SS to be in a public trust so they could take the SS money to make war; what we are experiencing now is not new… It has been building up since the early 80s with Ronald Reagan and people still think he was great.

        I think that’s a great question concerning Obama as well, probably even more so, which is what the article/video is about.

        Don’t distract the real issue

      • http://Idon'tknow john vance

        Deerinwater: you sure do have strange thought process or should I say thoughtless, ya that is more like it.
        Romney has said 2 yrs worth of tax returns & that is more than enough no President has shown more. In fact OBUMER has not shown his when he ran if fact he hasent shown anything, so wuy don’t you give it jackleg.

      • TML

        Flashy says, “As usual, Root is playing to emotions rather than any reasoning. He is relying on the TP Trilogy. For instance “By attacking Romney’s tax records, Obama’s team of Chicago hit men creates a problem that doesn’t exist.”

        Eh? So the records of a candidate which will disclose just how much he invests in America, how much he has played the game, just how much he has stepped up for paying back what this society has afforded him, just how true his words today are and where his interests lie…aren’t an issue? And his continuous refusal against all calls, from the Right AND the left doesn’t cause suspicion?”

        That clearly is not an appeal to emotion as opposed to reasoning. Indeed, disclosure of records of candidates is an issue… and I’d say even more so concerning a sitting President. I think the point of the matter isn’t that Romney shouldn’t, and more to the point that Obama is more secretive in his records than Romney could ever hope to be. Personally, I don’t like either of them.

        Flashy says, “Versus what Root is alleging. BTW…I can state that one doesn’t get into Harvard Law or become editor of the Review by being mediocre. And I couldn’t tell you who was in my Pol Sci Department in my college..and Root is kinda stretching it claiming he would know of everyone. Believe that claim by Root? Give me a break.”

        Obviously it’s his personal testimony and nothing more. And speculation that would be unnecessary if Obama would release his records. What does he have to hide?

        DaveH says: That is some mighty fine rationalization and double-speak, Deerinwater.
        Perhaps your best yet.

        Dave, don’t you hate it when demorats refer to a tax increase as “revenue enhancement,” or when a boss says you’re not fired, you’re “transitioned” or “uninstalled”? Then you’ve been exposed to doublespeak. Deer-in-convolutions is always using language that is evasive, deceptive, self-contradictory, or misleading. Doublespeak turns lies told by deerinwater into “strategic misrepresentations,” “reality augmentation,” or “terminological inexactitudes.” After being treated with a smattering of deerinwater’s doublespeak, ordinary sewage sludge becomes “regulated organic nutrients” that do not sink but merely “exceed the odor threshold.”

      • Rick Caston

        Flashy- “Yeah…he does.” NO, he doesn’t. Romney is under no obligation to show us anything. Last election, Obama hide everything about his past and it remains hidden. Oh yeah, he showed some tax returns. Good for him. But he refused, and still refuses, to release any records of his past. They have been sealed and locked away with the key thrown away as far as he is concerned. The man can’t even produce an actual copy of his birth certificate for crying out loud. The last one proven to be a forgery. What is the man hiding Flashy? Until Obama comes clean, screw Reid, Obama, Pelosi and all other POS democrats and their voters! And by the way, Romney has said that last years returns will be provided once they are finished. And not having them done is not un usual, especially for the well to do. Heck, I never do mine on time and still haven’t. As far as I am concerned, knowing what we now know about Obama and his plans for America, he is a traitor. And anyone that would vote for this SOB is a traitor. And after this is over he, Holder, Jarrett, his Czars, et al, should be treated as such.

      • Stupidsheeple

        Actually, Mittens is just as much of the problem as King Barry. They are BOTH progressive’s and don’t give a damn about you, me, or anyone else. For almost 100 years, there has been little if any difference between the Democommies, and Neo-Cons. And FYI, Mittens isn’t the only Republican running. My vote will be going to Ron Paul, and not wasted for the lesser of two evils. Mittens and King Barry are very much one in the same. If you think Ron Paul is a nut case, then perhaps the founding fathers were nut cases too? A TRUE patriot always questions WHAT their governments intentions are.

      • TML

        “Romney is under no obligation to show us anything.”

        I disagree… he is every bit as obligated, if not legally, then ethically, as Obama.

      • JUKEBOX

        If Obama got into Columbia University as a “FORIGN EXCHANGE STUDENT”, and he really was born in the U.S., then he is guilty of criminal fraud. If he was a legitimate foreign exchange student, then he is not a legal citizen of the U.S. He is caught either way of this scenario, thus explaining why he has spent so much money concealing his records.

        “Obama (before he was elected and while a mere candidate) never answered ANY questions about his past. Why should Mitt answer any? Different standards for Republican candidates!”

        While the thrust of your argument attempts to center on some strange notion of “fairness” between a challenger and the incumbent while it is Romney that failure to offer full disclose to financial records while attempting to using his “business success in finance ” to inspire people to vote for him. Some what is so awfully unfair about asking for some validation of this success?

        I’m not exactly sure what Obama was asked to supply in his bid for office in 2008, but clearly he satisfied somebody as he holds the first chair position today. Obama has already cleared this bar to be a contender for the position and title that he already holds. Rightly or wrongly so, this can not be undone or unchanged. I do not remember 44 ever making claims that he was an astute and accomplished businessman while many scoffed at his claims of being a “lowly” community organizer. Should we ask Mitt Romney about his “community organizing skills” in some search for fairness?

        You must be a product of the government school system. ( I am a product of sharecropper that ran away from home at 14 from a father that was as tough as a nickel steak to get along with and educated by the school of “Hard Knocks” )

        You need remedial training about how to communicate in English. ( I confess, from the beginning my English teacher was a a loss with me and I spent many hours after school under one of one supervision, I was later found awful at Literature as well, where I struggled for a grade. It was after the war and my enrolling in college that I found my place in English Composition I &II and persuasive writing while Literature still a passion I never unlocked.

        Your “jacks or better” analogy backfires when and if you decide to hold obama to the same standard. ( I do not hold Obama to the standard of a contender, for the most obvious reason)

        We are still waiting for his “jacks or better”. ( That “hand” has already been played Sir. today we play another)

        He shut everything down before the 2008 election and refused to answer questions choosing to hide behind the privacy argument which lunatic liberals use only when they think it can benefit their lying, stealing ways. (So you claim, sound more like “sour grapes”)

        Mr. Root is right on with his hypothesis which I was espousing in 2007. Show us ANYTHING dictator-wannabe obama. ( ouch! ~ Well? it is good that Mr. Root’s work was not a total waste)

        You are disgusting and a disgrace to America. ( I’ll consider the source while my DD 214 alone shows us your opinions as worthless. I love irony, that I have engaged the American way of life, helped fight our wars, buried bothers in arms, paid my taxes so a blowhard like yourself can speak his mind and spew his poison is part of the American experience.

      • mytorpor

        So why did this supposed “limited release of personal information” not count when Bush was running and the left was screaming for him to release his military records, or when someone stole his college records and released them? Or when McCain was running and Hillary and Obama co-sponsored a bill questioning his Natural Born status because he was born while his family was deployed to Panama. He was forced to release his school records, his military records, his full medical records AND those of his parents, both to Congress and to the media for 4 hours of unobstructed viewing…while at the same time Obama was furiously working to have all of his records concealed! Your argument simply does not hold water. Obama is hiding something big…and there should be no record that the voting public should not be able to verify and that goes for both parties.

      • Deerinwater

        Presidential privilege and Presidential security matters only apply to presidents would be the first thing that come to mind. While I know that you might like to pretend Obama is not “your” president, the fact of the matter is ~ he is, along with all matters and functions offered and afforded all Presidential office holders.

        What is it about a ” incumbent ” that you are not understanding?
        And Mitt does not have to do anything! Nor did GW.

        You don’t have an argument, you have a whine.

    • Sirian

      DaveH,
      I agree, the fix IS in. I’ve simply had a bad gut feeling for several months that no matter what, Obummer will be coercively re-elected to complete “transforming this nation” to his mindset. SCYTL counting the vote simply intensifies that feeling.
      Wayne’s proposal is good but it won’t go anywhere – especially with the Romney campaign. The same applies to the info that Sheriff Arpaio’s team has uncovered. It too will go no where – there’s merely too much blockage by various people and agencies – Holder’s DOJ included.
      I hate to say it, but I’m not overly impressed with Romney. So in one regard, it appears that here we are again with almost, not exactly, but very close to a carbon copy of ’08. Even so, what other choice do we have? All other candidates – Paul, Johnson etc. can not win – that is assured. They are better in relation to commitment to the Constitution but there simply isn’t enough support for that to happen.
      As I’ve stated before, I pray that my gut feeling will be wrong – very wrong!!

      • Cicuta

        I do agree with you and my question is: what is wrong with people not voting for Ron Paul? To me he is the only one with the correct perspective and probably capable of doing better that all the idiots we have had as presidents after JFK. This country is going down fast and will stay down for ever. Don’t like Romney either; so, I won’t vote.

      • DaveH

        Sirian,
        If you investigate the Libertarian Principles thoroughly, you will see that they are far away the best Political Party out there. The Establishment and their Crony Capitalists will do all they can to stifle our message for obvious reasons — The Leaders like their Power and Perks, and the Libertarian Philosophy is a very Big Threat to their cushy lives that come at the rest of our expense.
        It can only help us to grow if Principled people like yourself help to give them more exposure by voting for them. The vast majority of people know nothing about us, but will start investigating when they see an increasing number of voters coming our way.
        So, regardless if the Libertarians have a chance at winning or not, we still win if people don’t throw away their votes on Obama or Romney.
        Vote Libertarian!

      • Kate8

        DaveH – I don’t know how reliable this is, but I heard at a militia briefing last night that something VERY BIG is going to happen at the RNC convention next month. Something that will rock (and stun) the nation. A game-changer.

        I’ve read similar inuendos in various other reports. It seems that something is being planned that will upset the status quo apple cart. It may involve Ron Paul…

        It seems that the clash of the Titans has begun. We need to all jump into the fray and be ready to defend any patriot with the courage to move forward, because, ultimately, it is we the people who will determine where we go next.

      • Sirian

        DaveH,
        Libertarians are by far the most Constitutional people our country has. Absolutely!! Yet the wall that we’re fighting to tear down has, over the years, been built very, very thick. It will fall – no doubt of that whatsoever – but not as soon as we would prefer.
        If by some remote chance Paul is on our November ballots here in Oklahoma – yes, without hesitation, he has my vote! But with the subversive maneuvers that even the GOP has pulled, as laid out in Sam Rolley’s article today, “Republicans Hate Democracy”, it’s hard to say what the end result will be. That’s why I said above – “Paul, Johnson etc. can not win – that is assured.” That may very well be one of the reasons Rand Paul endorsed Romney – play along with the “establishment” while at the same time, work against them internally. That may be one of the ways to turn their own subversive ways against them. Wait and see.

      • JeffH

        Kate8, this is what I’ve been able to find RE: RNC 2012
        http://www.lsnewsgroup.com/2012/08/08/so…onvention/

        Yesterday Sinclair News tweeted out that sources inside the RNC have told us TX Congressman Ron Paul will in fact have a speaking spot at the convention in Tampa. The source said: “The RNC will have Dr. Paul on stage, there is no way the GOP is going shut out Congressman Paul from a role in the convention. To do so would only make it more difficult for the GOP to unite behind Gov. Romney.”

      • Meteorlady

        Paul and others that were excluded from publicity are the ones the media, the controllers and the sellouts hate. Therefore they are popular but since no one hears about them much, they fade away and people forget. We should all join and support another party…

        We just won a huge victory in Texas. We got Cruz into a run-off with Dewhurst (the Republican party backed candidate) and he won the primary. We worked hard to make that happen. It was mostly grass roots and Tea Party members that got this done. Cruz raise about 1/3 or less of what Dewhurst had but still won. So we know that it can be done.

      • Meteorlady

        Kate8 – I too have heard some rumors. Paul has gained momentum since his Audit the Fed bill. He also does have delegates and can play some very nice games with them at the convention. I hope he does – I’m luke warm on Romney – he’s not conservative enough for me and I don’t think he will fix the economy because he doesn’t have the balls to do what needs to be done – cut the size and scope of the federal government. With that said, I will vote for him of it’s between Obama and him… but I don’t have to like being handed another hand picked Republican candidate to vote for.

      • TIME

        Dear Kate,

        Not to go to far of topic, as I know you have a far deeper grasp of many obscure behind the curtains issue not unlike myself.
        Have you done any lookin into the “Clown” / Joker – aka the Great Deceiver role, or his TIME line – as in 48 months.

        Or “CARE” the OWL – note the United Nations has a CARE Programm and each year at least 10 high ranking UN members attend “the GROVE.”
        There is a vast under current of Satan Worship within both so just how strange that these very people who are quite quick to denounce TRUE Christians beliefs – seem to be following “the Book of Revelations” like a blue print / road map? One really has to question why that is.

        Also a few other points to look into, we know that the earth travels at about 18.5 MPH – PS, yet over the last 3.5 years its speed has incresed to well over 21.8 MPH PS.
        Also why it is that NASA is spending over $1 Million per week of TAX payers money on following something they claim is not there such as Nibiru or Planet X?

        Also Have you seen the Mayan artifacts unearthed in late 2011 – early 2012; most of what clearly display flying disk like objects – let alone “Almond eyed creatures.”
        BTW – 80% of these items are pure {22 – 24 Kt solid gold.}
        Carbon dates on the items tested so far place them at well over 1200 years old.

        There is far more than what the eyes see’s going on.
        So something BIG is going to happen within {many venues} as these special criminals just can’t keep the lid on it for much longer.
        Perhaps its also the very reason these special Criminals are working so hard to shut down the Internet, let alone disarm us.

        What do they know, – that we only have bits and pieces of?

        Peace and Love

      • moonbeam

        Kate8 – I hear you on that. I was just telling people the other day that I expect something to happen during the convention. Why? Because Bush and some others said they wasn’t going to attend (red flag). I can’t think of any other reason they wouldn’t be there except that they KNOW something is going to happen and bushboy didn’t want to be there when the roof caved in or whatever they’ve got planned. Just like I think bush KNEW something about 9/11 BEFORE it happened. His reaction to the news of it, I saw it myself, just wasn’t right. First thing I said to myself is “Hmmmm, his reaction is inappropriate and tells me he knew about this before the fact.”

      • George Harris

        IF the fix is in already, and I have concerns about it myself, what we need is Republican control of the Senate, while keeping control of the House. That way Obama won’t have as much power. Unfortunately, if Romney wins and Congress stays the same, we are no better off than we are now with both parties trying to stymie the other.
        God help us all if either party gains complete control!

      • Kate8

        TIME – You’ll have to fill me in on the Joker symbolism. I confess I haven’t taken the time to check into it much. Perhaps I’ve been remiss…

        As far as Nibiru, yes, I’ve researched it as much as I can. I do have many questions about it. I don’t talk about it because of the rolling eye syndrome…

        Some say it’s real and some say it’s a hoax. I’ve read books on the subject, and they make a good case. I’ve read some of the Kolbrin Bible, which goes into great detail about the cataclysms of the Earth when it passes by. Even both OT and NT (including Revelation) speak of it, if you know what you are reading. The OT repeats the message of this passage over and over. People just don’t understand what it’s talking about, but the descriptions are clear.

        And yes, it is recorded in ancient writings and symbols everywhere. Even the Hopi call it the return of the “Great White Brother”, who wears a red cap and cloak. The ancient Sumerians record Earth history from a time when it is thought to have occupied a place in the heavens beyond Mars, where the asteroid belt is now, but was knocked out of position by Nibiru and split in two. The book of Job describes something similar. The asteroids are thought to be fragments of that collision, and the moon is thought to be a fragment of Earth that broke off. These things are told in alleghorical terms.

        That said, how do we know that many of these “ancient” writings aren’t, perhaps, not as old as we’ve been led to believe. It seems that new “ancient” artifacts are turning up right and left these days. How convenient.

        The elite families have been around for thousands of years, always with the same endgame goal. How do we know that we have not been set up? And I include the book of Revelation in this, which would also have to include the book of Daniel and others. Why are we admonished not to question the written “word”, when these things are so easily manipulated? Why are we cautioned, as Christians, not to investigate other teachings and sciences, like astrology, when the Bible itself is full of astrological references?

        Don’t get me wrong…I have studied the Bible and treasure its wisdom. But God gave us minds and discernment, and what is the best means satan has for control…conquest by force or by corruption? There is absolutely nothing to stop evildoers from changing a word here and there… a phrase… and they have done this. And we know who put the testaments together at the time of Constantine. And we know who translated the King James version and why.

        All I’m saying is that we have been controlled for far too long by belief. Yeshua even warned us about the evils of religion, and has much to say about the latter day church. The NT did not exist during his time (duh) and it has been presented to us in such a way that we do not understand what it teaches.

        Anyway, I don’t want to turn this into a treatise here, but fascinating subjects. I wish we could sit down over a cup of coffee and share our take on things. I have no doubt that you could enlighten me on many subjects, and I don’t know of any other person but you who has any interest whatsoever in these things except me.

      • Kate8

        Meterolady – Yes, I’ve heard the rumors about why some high profile persons are staying away from the convention. But what I was referring to was something else, that some kind of shot will be fired (so to speak) for the cause of freedom and restoration of our republic.

        There is no doubt that great opposing forces are at play, and the showdown is on. The question is, which side will prevail? It is largely up to us, and what we are willing to do to get it back. There are many good guys who’ve been hard at work behind the scenes, and many revelations of corruption among the elite and their underlings is coming out.

        Remember, Apocalypse/Revelaton: the revealing of things hidden.

        I surround my loved ones and the Earth in white light every day, and pray for the strength and power of God to give us and our patriot brethren courage and Divine Intervention that will carry us to be victorious against the powers of h*ll.

        We must also pray that we, as a nation, can prove worthy of such a victory. Right now there are still too many of us who don’t think there is a problem, even though lives are being lost on our behalf, and without any appreciation at all.

      All this mystery and I have to wonder why. Today, as as it was after taking office, this thought nags me every time I hear something about the cover up of records like this!!?. WHO would know the truth behind all of these mysteries? Mysteries starting over 4 years ago. This nagging feeling, one causing me to think, the closest relative ( in the USA ) died – died too soon. TOO soon to be able to be a proud relative of this new leader’s family. Ring any bells with anyone else? Is this a huge coverup or what? I am nobody, but I am an American observer.

        Greg – I’m sorry but Romney will not straighten this out. This has been going on for a number of years and I truly don’t believe that congress can actually balance the budget at all which is why they keep passing resolution after resolution to keep the government running. All the while running up more debt. Romney will not cut the size and scope of government – he doesn’t have the balls to do that and there would be riots like Greece so he will be a consummate politician and lie to us until he can kick the ball down the road to the next President.

      Yo! Flashman, if what you say here is true…if you went to college…then maybe you remember some of the rules of basic debate and rhetoric, like always use facts to counter your opponent’s speculative remarks, move an issue that is basically rhetorical into the realm of empirical fact, etc. You counter Root’s speculation with your own and then ham it up with anecdotal quips.

      The easiest way to get this issue out of the speculative front is for the President to release the records.

      As for your memory…perhaps you could go back and look at the class annual and peruse the pictures to jog your memory, there are also class rosters, alumni registers, ‘where are they now’ logs, etc., etc.

      It’s not like there are no records…unless of course they are sealed.

      I believe Alinsky’s “Rules for Radicals” to be the consumate playbook of “commuity organizer” Obama and his handlers.

      “From the moment the organizer enters a community he lives, dreams… only one thing and that is to build the mass power base of what he calls the army. Until he has developed that mass power base, he confronts no major issues…. Until he has those means and power instruments, his ‘tactics’ are very different from power tactics. Therefore, every move revolves around one central point: how many recruits will this bring into the organization, whether by means of local organizations, churches, service groups, labor Unions, corner gangs, or as individuals.”

      “Change comes from power, and power comes from organization.”
      An organizer must stir up dissatisfaction and discontent…

      “Obama learned his lesson well. I am proud to see that my father’s model for organizing is being applied successfully beyond local community organizing to affect the Democratic campaign in 2008. It is a fine tribute to Saul Alinsky as we approach his 100th birthday.” –Letter from L. DAVID ALINSKY, son of Neo-Marxist Saul Alinsky

      Alinsky Rules for Radicals 101

      Opening page – Dedication: “Lest we forget at least an over-the-shoulder acknowledgment to the very first radical: from all our legends, mythology, and history… the first radical known to man who rebelled against the establishment and did it so effectively that he at least won his own kingdom — Lucifer.”
      —————————————————————-Prologue: “The Revolutionary force today has two targets, moral as well as material. Its young protagonists are one moment reminiscent of the idealistic early Christians, yet they also urge violence and cry, ‘Burn the system down!’ They have no illusions about the system, but plenty of illusions about the way to change our world. It is to this point that I have written this book.”
      —————————————————————-The Purpose: In this book we are concerned with how to create mass organizations to seize power and give it to the people; to realize the democratic dream of equality, justice, peace…. “Better to die on your feet than to live on your knees.’ This means revolution.”

      “Radicals must be resilient, adaptable to shifting political circumstances, and sensitive enough to the process of action and reaction to avoid being trapped by their own tactics and forced to travel a road not of their choosing.” p.6

      “A Marxist begins with his prime truth that all evils are caused by the exploitation of the proletariat by the capitalists. From this he logically proceeds to the revolution to end capitalism, then into the third stage of reorganization into a new social order of the dictatorship of the proletariat, and finally the last stage — the political paradise of communism.” p.10

      “An organizer working in and for an open society is in an ideological dilemma to begin with, he does not have a fixed truth — truth to him is relative and changing; everything to him is relative and changing…. To the extent that he is free from the shackles of dogma, he can respond to the realities of the widely different situations….” pp.10-11

      There goes WAR, selling Yugos as Cadillacs, again.

      First, he disregards completely Harry Reid’s claim of an anonymous source, then he rolls out a string of anonymous sources to back up his claims about the President’s academic record. Then he ups the ante with his “hunches”. It’s funny how his hunches always agree with his political beliefs.

        Sorry … I meant, Mr, Root

    • Sarah R.

      Everyone is in the dark. This is all a set up. Romney is giving the election to Obama. Romney simply will not tell the truth to America about Obama. He could,but he won’t demand that Obama show his records. Why Obama has a fradulent SSN, has a fraudulent birth cirtificate. He has so much ammunition about Obama but won’t use it. Case in point Chick-fil-A. Romney would not stand up for our first Amendment on fredom of speech saying that it was not a part of his compaign. that alone gave Obama the election. So sad America that we can’t see when we are being set up.

      • gina

        Because the election is not all about Obama its all about how americans will pas through the economic hole you are all in. You keep on attacking Romney because he is rich , he did not get his wealth by being in the government.. he worked hard for it. You know what people who has no clue about business go to government service to make themselves rich. Can you name a senator, congressman, president who left the government service poorer than when they came. They all come out of the government so much richer when they first came. While Romney is a businessman, he knows the ins and outs of the business world thus making him rich. Who in the Democrats can do that oh there’s one John Kerry after marrying his wife who inherited the Heinz catsup empire.

      • Jeff

        Gina:

        Why do you single out John Kerry for your special ridicule? Didn’t John McCain do the same thing? And why do you assume that because Romney made his money in the private sector that he did it admirably? How does a person 65 years of age accumulate $100 million in a tax exempt IRA account? For most of us, the annual contribution limit is $6,000.

        Do you find it at all interesting that under Ryan’s “marvelous” budget, Romney’s tax liability will approach 0 (less than 1%)? Why do you think Romney will not release tax returns? It certainly isn’t because they “get attacked” when they provide documents. They have been attacked far, far more for not releasing returns than for anything they’ve actually released.

        Do you really want a governing coalition that includes people with the mentality of Todd Akin (a close ally of Paul Ryan, by the way)?

        Scott, you could let the lady speak for herself. And the people I mentioned are all actually elected officials deciding on policy. The people you mentioned are irrelevant to any serious discussion never elected to anything. Democrats do not elect people like you mentioned to office. Republicans regularly elect Neanderthals to office.

      • Jeff

        Sorry. I was thinking of another post where I listed more embarrassing Republicans like Bachmann, King, Fox, Akin, Ryan, Gohmert, and McConnell. And let’s not forget Sharon Angle and Christine O’Donnell.

      • Scott

        I suppose we must agree to disagree. I don’t believe the best interest of the country is to raise the debt to a staggering $16 trillion and have policies to raise it even more. The debt per U S Citizen is $50,856 plus @12,308 and growing at an astronomical rate. The government has got to stop spending, period. You, obviously, believe that the more the government spends, the better. At some point there is no more of other people’s money to spend.

      • Deerinwater

        Someone say; ” The government has got to stop spending, period”

        LOL! Well, I promise you, you would not like it if it did. Inside three weeks, there would be riots in the streets and they would continues until which time, someone spent a lot of money to stop them.

        It’s a nice “notion” but not very realistic.

        Government needs to spend less! and as Ron Paul pointed out so clearly, this would not be hard to do. Now , I admit, it would have much the same gravity as asking a husband or wife for a divorce. There will be some people greatly upset, they will be angry and say mean and nasty things, they will threaten, they will even follow through with some threats ~ but in the end, they will get over it and move on.

        We would be called every name under the sun, a liar, a cheat, a bully, untrustworthy to which I would on say, ~ ouch! that hurt.

      • Jeff

        The deficit will increase far more under Romney than under Obama. Republicans talk about fiscal discipline; they don’t practice it. Mitt Romney will get his tax cut even if it blows a hole in the economy like Mt. St. Helens. Remember “deficits don’t matter” as long as a Republican is president.

        Romney has the whole W foreign policy team together. Those neocons will have us in another war within 12 months of Romney being sworn in. Romney will be so afraid of criticism from the right that he’ll jump at the chance to show what a great “leader” he is the first time a general suggests military action. A president needs the confidence to say “no” to the military when it’s appropriate. Romney won’t even stand up to Rush Limbaugh.

      • Rosemary

        Jeff, You mentioned the statement “deficits don’t matter”, I keep hearing Bob Beckel say the same thing over and over. I emailed him asking for his reasoning but have yet to receive a reply. He is a Democrat, maybe you know the answer?

      • Jeff

        It’s a direct quote from Dick Cheney. It means that Republicans only “worry” about the deficit when a Democrat is in the White House.

      • Rosemary

        So Jeff, why does Bob Beckel keep saying it?

      • Jeff

        I don’t know. Context is everything. I would assume if he’s saying those exact words, it’s meant ironically or as a shot at Cheney and Republicans in general.

    • Brown

      It’s ALWAYS a fix when other do something, but when WHITE GOP does something OK.
      No one asked for Bush, Daddy Bush or any other WHITE President birth certificate, college records or anything else. That lying Bush and Channey got us the financial state we’re NOT OBAMA, and fool still DID NOT get control of Iraq’s oil. Romney is just another lying Republican that, by his own admittion, cares nothing for majority of thre citizens of this nation. I personal do not give a tinker’s d__n about his tax return, Romney is a curse to the poor and middle class of this nation. This guy Root if he know something and can prove it do, forget about some JACK__S Challeng. If can prove something he should done so in 2008. LYING COWARD!

      Maynard Runkle says:

      Great post Alex. The only disagreement I have is that Democrats Johnson and Clinton went along with the military industrial complex and Obama has as well. JFK, as documents that were released under the Freedom of Information Act show, blocked attempts to false flag us into war by rejecting a proposal to knock down a US plane and set off explosions in Miami and Washington, D.C. and then blame Cuba. I believe it was called Operation Northwoods. He also signed a paper that was rescinded by Johnson to bring our personnel home from Vietnam by the end of ’63.
      Johnson went along with the false flag Gulf of Tonkin incident.

      Nixon escalated by bringing the attack to neutral soil in Cambodia.

      Great posting to you as well Maynard , but allow me to offer some insight if I am, Nixon can be seen as escalating the war I suppose, as it was he plan and promise to put this war to bed and bring US troops home. In order to do that and do it safely required a certain amount of escalating as we turned fire support bases and other matters of great importance over the South Vietnamese troops. This push into Cambodia did not last long and did not go that deep into Cambodia, we cleared out anything within 105 range or 15 miles. In this drive to the east we encountered jungle base camps with concrete sidewalks and swimming pools. They had been there for sometime and got cozy. Not having a DMZ on that side it was of military importance that it be cleared before any stand down might take place. Nixon took the heat for expanding the war and from a guy that was there, it was a bad wrap while I sincerely hate the way the students responded to it and the events gone crazy at Kent state.

      I can honesty say, at the time, I did not have the big picture of the Nam war, or even now for that matter for I was just one young soldier, doing what I was told and worked in a unit as “one”. We did not engage a lot of heavy resistance in our drive as they fell back, mined the roads, laying booby traps and faded into the jungle while we pushed them out, tore up their playhouse and left the slow ones dead where we found them.

      But yes, you are so correct, if it’s not about money from the beginning, war has a way of getting there quickly and then any war takes on a life all it own. It feeds on itself and that is exactly why I resisted “W’s” and the American peoples eagerness to go to war for the acts of just a few cowardly people that could have been neutralized by a hosts of different means with less collateral damage and greater effectiveness and a hell of a lot cheaper.

      I hate what has happened, I hate that many of us have to keep relearning this same old lesson about government ambitions and making their friends wealthy. To understand, if you spend big bucks on a big military, it’s a requirement that it be used to justify itself. While I do believe it is not the soldier that wants war but the man that outfits and supply’s the soldier.

      The protracted cost on these two war, including survivor benefits and VA cost is somewhere in the neighborhood of 7 trillion dollars. Just think of all the wonderful improvements America could have accomplished with 7 trillion dollars.

    • http://winco.net Phyllis

      I believe you are right, Dave. I believe the fix is in with Romney and I believe it was in with McCain. There is so much secrecy surrounding Obama it is actually scary. When you look back at George W’s presidency there was nothing left to the imagination, every aspect of his life was exposed. There were so many questions McCain could have asked and didn’t and now we are seeing Romney do the same thing. There is something rotten and evil in America. Only divine intervention will expose the evil we all sense. Pray for that intervention.

    • jude

      yes, the fix is in, its always in. “voters” are not really voters. they do not choose a president, that isn’t how it works. no American outside the electoral college has ever had any voting input and those people are, as a rule, cronies of the parties, and voting as they are told to. the last two elections and the treatment of candidates who do not kowtow to the “masters” should more than confirm that elections are not fair, are not legit and have precisely nothing to do w/what the people want..if ALL of us voted one way and the few hundred electorates voted another, guess who gets their way? what we need to do is call their BS bluff and all refuse to vote so its clear to all who has what to do with what. the result will be a mass awakening to the FACT that encouraging public involvement has an entirely different agenda than electing a president.

      Mitt Romney’s Abortion Business Made Him $50M
      Posted by Jeenyus Corner on August 17, 2012 in News

      by Karen Fish

      Truth is stranger than fiction. You can’t make this stuff up because nobody would believe you. Mitt Romney’s business record is his chief qualification to be President, he says. Did you know that Mitt Romney’s business was the abortion business, from which he made $50 Million burning aborted fetuses through his company Stericycle?

      When Mitt Romney was sworn in as Governor of Massachusetts on Jan. 2, 2003 he was Pro Choice. Mitt Romney was so pro choice that he was in the abortion business. Did Mitt Romney campaign when he ran for Governor that his chief qualification to be Governor of Massachusetts was that he was the owner of the largest aborted fetus incineration company in the United States of America? Mitt Romney’s Romneycare, the blueprint for Obamacare provided tax payer funding for abortions, which Obamacare does not. Mitt Romney introduced Romneycare to get the taxpayers to pay him personally as the owner of Stericylce to burn aborted fetuses.

      Mitt Romney went on national television on five channels this week to publicly tell the American people that he absolutely left his company Bain Capital in Feb. 1999. When the Huffington Post reported on the Romney abortion scandal earlier this year Mitt Romney’s campaign and Bain friends said that Mitt had nothing to do with it because Mitt left Bain Capital in Feb. 1999 and they knew that Romney’s companies did not buy Stericycle until November 1999 when Mitt had severed ties with Bain Capital they said.

      Now David Corn a brilliant hard hitting journalist for Mother Jones in the mold of Woodward and Bernstein, Redford and Hoffman who uncovered the Watergate scandal that proved that Richard Nixon was a b & e artist and chased him from the White House, David Corn has uncovered documents which show that Mitt Romney signed personally for the purchase of Stericycle in Nov. 1999, had sole voting and dispositive power and on the Bain Capital 2002 SEC filing Mitt Romney is listed as the sole shareholder, CEO, President, and Fetus Burner.

      Mitt Romney is only going to release his 2010 and 2011 tax returns he just told America. When in 2008 Mitt Romney auditioned to become war hero Senator John McCain’s Vice President pick Mitt provided John McCain with 23 years of his tax returns which show exactly when and how Mitt Romney made $50 Million on his investment in Stericycle. This is why Senator McCain recently said that Sarah Palin was a better choice for VP than Mitt Romney. The Republican Party, the self proclaimed Pro Life party is running Mitt Romney, the biggest owner of the fetus disposal arm of the nation’s abortion clinics.

      Mitt Romney’s business record is his chief qualification to be President, he says. Since when did outsourcing jobs to China and disposing of fetuses put a person in a position to continue pulling the American economy out of the ditch George W. Bush drove it into by cutting Mitt Romney’s taxes and waging two wars in Iraq and Afghanistan paid for with trillions of dollars of borrowed and printed money taking us from the Clinton surplus to the Bush jobs depression?

      In case the GOP wakes up and runs Mitt Romney out of the country on a rail Mitt will be fine because his abortion millions are stored in Bermuda, the Cayman Islands and Switzerland safe from the arms of the tax man. To now tell the American people that he is pro life, you have to admire Mitt Romney’s chutzpah or just ask yourself if he is just a plain ordinary bully, liar and sociopath. The real question is why are we still listening to Mitt Romney let alone voting for him?

      http://jeenyuscorner.com/2012/08/17/mitt-romneys-abortion-business-made-him-50m/

      too bad we couldn’t get someone with a clean record like Ron Paul

      This is the dumbest, most outrageous nut since the birthers. Mutt Robme is a danger to our democracy and our Consitution. His Bain capital years, his lies and deceptions are not comparable to Obama in any way. Thanks for trying you millionaire nut, but the voters arent buying what your selling. Mutt Robme paid little or no taxes, and he is a draft dodger…ran to france to avoid Viet Nam…some commander in thief he will make. Your desperate attempts to take down this president have numbed the american people, to the point of laughing out loud…

      • Gea

        Romney and Ryan are both highly intelligent and educated people who understand working of free markets far better than Obama ever did. Romney got his law degree from Harvard 14 years before Obama including an MBA, while Ryan studied economics and political science in college making him cognizant of necessity of free markets rather than state capitalism that encourages dead wood, or coporatism which also encourages dead wood and decline in creativity.

        BO stinks, both in his Marxist economic leanings AND with his extolling Koran and Islam while dissing Bible and Christianity. He only pays lip service to either Christian or Jewish teachings which are the basis of compassionate and just society, since he needs them to get into power. Make no mistake, the guy who cavorts with Muslim Brotherhood and simiklar unsavory Islamic ideoloogs, is not promting American values. Americans ARE finally waking up to BO deceptions and will retire him in November in a land-slide.

        Then we can start a hard work of repairing our country that had been damaged both by baby Bush and even more by Barak Hussein Obama. BO can go to his Muslim half-brothers in Kenya, his Muslim Brothers in Egypt, or his Saudi king and write Dreams of My Mother to explain how a nice white girl fell for an older Marxist Muslim from Kenya who already had a wiffe and 2 chilren before seducing her and created Barak Junior.

      • Deerinwater

        Yea, and Jesse James knew a lot about trains and banking as well. That Romney is cleave enough to not release document offing a view to his financial activities accept for his down time, chilling out and not robbing pension funds alone tells us that he is very bright.

        And Ryan married into money, ~ smart lad! An Oklahoma democrat family no less, ~ he must be very cleaver as well.

      • Gea

        Ryan went to same school as my oldest daughter and finished in 1992, one year before she did. I met him a couple of times in 1998-1999 and we had long discussions about Friedrich von Hayek and Milton Frieman. Ryan is a higlhy intelligent man who does not pretend, like Obama does. I had never met Romney, but he DOES give to charity 15% of his total income, rather then1% that Obama gives.

        Both Barak Obama and his wife are rich people who had played the race card and were beneficiaries of the affirmative action. Whiel we need to keep on our guard to make sure that Mitt Romney does not allow more companies that are “too big to fail” and have socialism for the big capital while we the commoners suffer the vagaries of a “free market” swim or sink capitalism, Obama stinks with his Marxist/Islamic politicies that are endangering not only US Solcdiers and US but the entire Westrn civliztaion.

        No healhty society can exist based on slaggardness or wars.

      • Jeff

        My thoughts exactly. What will Romney do with Detroit? Sell it to the Chinese as an underperforming division of USA, Inc. and seek a tax write off?

      • Gea

        MIchigan is now 15% Muslims, who had taken over Detroit. Detroit is a consequence of political correctness ideogy taht BO represents with his Marxist Islamist policies. Obama will lose in a landslide in November because Americans are waking up to his dangerous Marxist Islamist policies which history ahd discared as unworkable to promote social justice.

        Anybody who repsects human rights and women cannot vote for this phoney who bows to Saudi king who allows lashing of women if they are caught driving, stones them if they are convicted for adultery (man can have up to 4 sives as long as he does not sleep with another man’s wife, chattel). who beheads adult gays (but allows molesting of boys and girls by old rich men)….Islam stinks and must reform to become compatible with US Constitution and Universal Declaration of Human Rights and not being white washed with the help of US president who behaves more like a Caliphin Chief than Commander in Chief. My dog would be better in the Whtie house than BO, who is doing US harm.

        BTW, I voted and was a strong supported of Barak Hussein Obama until I observed him for 2 years and read Koran and Hadith to see why he extolls Koran and disses Bible. NEVER AGAIN! Better rich Mormon than rich politically correct Muslim who is in disguise as a Christian. He is as UN=American as one can get.

      • Jeff

        Aside from the fact Obama is neither a Marxist nor an Islamist, your post is remarkably idiotic. Do all Muslims act like the King of Saudi Arabia? Is Detroit now under Sharia Law ruled by an Imam? Last time I checked the whole state is under the fascist thumb of a Republican governor.

      • Gea

        You are like the company you keep. BO likes to associate and help Muslim Brotherhood in the Whtie house and in Egypt. Detrloit looks like some large middle easter Arab town destroyed and populated by burkhas on one side and drug dealers on another.

        What does it meat to be “fascist in your vocabulary? It appears that you do not know enough about islam since that word is morie appropriate with thsoe who extoll Koran and iSLAM WHILE DISSING bible. Read Koran and Hadith to understand that Islam is a supremacist ideology similar to Nazi ideology, together with its delusional Jew hatred, which inspires current histeria of politically correct morons regarding Israel, the ONLY democracy in the Middle East which protects rights of all people.

        In contrast, most its neighbors are Juden-frei and Christians are leaving in droves since the islamkists of BO Muslim Brotherhood are bombing their churches and homes. Soon, the entire Muslim world will become Mulsim only, which will make those countries even more screwed up and disfunctional, and sendin their poor and opressed massed to mess up Australia, Europe and NOrth America, while you sing combaya of the liberal political correctness that does not recognise its head from its butt ;-) !

      • Jeff

        I understand your concerns about Islam and you are right about an important, militant faction of Islam. I think there are many in the Islamic World who recognize they’d get a lot further if they cooperated with Israel. Unfortunately, they are too often afraid to speak. what I don’t get is how you blame this on Obama. That is deluded thinking.

      • Gea

        I thougt like you until 2 years ago when I read Koran from cover to cover and enough Hadith to see how it is a supremacist ideology similar to Nazi ideology, with its delusional Jew hatred. In addition, Islamic treachings of Koran and Hadith promote dhimmitude (for Christians and Jews), misogyny, pedophilia, polygamy and murder for Allahu Akbar. Islam is NOT like other religions, but is incompatible with either US Constitution and the Univeersal Declaration of Human Rights.

        Islam MUST REFORM, rather then being white washed by CAIR, OIC and other Muslim organizations helped by US President who extolls Koran and Hadith, while dissing Bible and who bowed to Saudi king, whose subjects committed 9/11. It is Islamic teachings that is the main cause of Islamic terrorism around the world. Read Koran and Hadith and learn history of Islam to see for yourself.

        Obama will lose in a landslide, and take with him Democratic Party, becaue Americans are finally waking up how un-American BO is, and will not stand for it!

      • Jeff

        I think the measure of any religion is not what’s in the holy books but in what the followers of the religion are able to ignore. If everyone followed everything in the Bible, there’d be a lot more slaying going on. The strength of the West has been in our ability to acknowledge our religious fanatics, smile, be courteous, and then completely ignore them. Only when Islam reaches that level will it be a truly civilized culture. I think the actual words in the Koran are of secondary importance.

        The speech Obama gave (in Egypt, I think) about Islam was important because it pointed out that while the Koran was the same, the relative positions of Islam and Christianity were not always as they are now. 500 years ago, Islamic culture was more advanced than Western culture in many ways. Jews fared far better in Islamic societies than in Christian ones. Clearly, something has happened and it has nothing to do with the words in the Koran.

      • DaveK

        ok, we get it. you are against islam which is your prerogative. there is a little problem with the first amendment, though. They have the same rights as christians (or jew or athiests or whatever). That, my friend, is one of the beautiful parts of this democracy. WE ALL CAN PRACTICE WHATEVER RELIGION THAT WE WANT. If you are worried about them taking over detroit, well 15% is not enough, but suppose they do. They would only be able to make laws that fit within the US Constitution. I don’t know Sharia law, but I’m pretty sure that the first time someone got their hand cut off for stealing, there would be a law suit and that law would be stricken from the books and the person who had a hand removed would be a rich one-hander.
