“Any and all appropriate laws should be followed.”

That means deport all illegals!

DesertThunder   November 1st, 2008 - 3:52 pm

Might as well forget about any immigrants being illegal anymore with either of these two candidates. Our country is lost. Obama is a Hack and will destroy this country.

Bubbala   November 1st, 2008 - 3:56 pm

And Obama didn’t know about anything Jeremiah Wright was saying over a twenty-year period of weekly rants.

And Obama never knew Bill Ayers. Except he did.

And Obama never had any other citizenship than one in the U.S. Except he did (and likely does now).

And Obama was born in Hawaii. Except it’s looking more likely than not that he wasn’t.

57-STATES! ONE MORE TO GO! PIE! Bow down to the Obama!

OChaff   November 1st, 2008 - 3:57 pm

I know what you’re going to huh… er… say. There seems to be a lot huh… I don’t know. Like all of those things Rev. Wright said. I … huh didn’t know. Don’t bring up those other times I’a er …. huh said I didn’t know, cause you know huh…. er…. those are just distractions form what you huh… er…. really need to know. You Know? Let’s talk about what you should know. You should know that everything is huh…er Republican’s fault, and when I’m huh President no matter what happens that won’t huh err change. I hope you know huh er what I’m saying. Thank you. Now get out there and vote two three four times you know.

SUPRISE!?   November 1st, 2008 - 3:59 pm

Obama seems to never know anything about anyone or anything. At least anything negative, when someone else points out the obvious he plays stupid. Ither he knows about all these associates and supports them in some manner or he is very very stupid and living in severe denial. I think the first is most likely.

Bubbala   November 1st, 2008 - 4:02 pm

@ DesertThunder: IN all due respect, McCain HAS said he “gets it” and will place enforcement and security first.

What we need — I now admit this — is a Guest Worker Program that actually “works.” That means, no path to citizenship involved, no social benefits for “workers” on that program, no dependents coming along, no child born to workers while in the U.S. is granted automatic citizenship…NO BLENDING between “Guest Worker Program” and U.S. citizenship and legal immigration.

That way, those who claim they need all this cheap labor can have their cheap labor and the issues of immigration and citizenship are separated from the concerns and needs of commerce.

“Guest workers” come to the U.S. to actually work, they leave after a work-period and get paid when they go home, then they’re rquired to wait for a period in their own nations, then return to work again and repeat that process as long as they are not involved in criminal activity or violate the program rules.

Anyone else who wants to legally immigrate for purposes of applying for citizenship, can follow that route, but Guest Workers are involved in a distinct process apart from those.

And, anyone who is in the nation as an illegal alien IS DISQUALIFIED from the Guest Worker Program and all future opportunities for citizenship.

As long as we have enforcement first and actually do that, we can achieve a workable Guest Worker Program and stick with that. We HAVE to remove all “paths of citizenship” from illegal aliens. Becuase as long as the two are comingled, illegal immigration will continue unabated (people jump in line because they don’t anticipate anyone will penalize them for doing that).

Joe F   November 1st, 2008 - 4:03 pm

Oh, sure…

Obama didn’t know Rev Wright was a hatemongering racist, didn’t know Bill Ayers was an unrepentant terrorist, didn’t know his friend and financier Reszko was committing fraud, and now didn’t know his aunt was living here illegally.

Baldface lies. Period, the end.

DesertThunder   November 1st, 2008 - 4:06 pm

Bubbala,
I have a disabled sister with MS and our medical cost are skyrocketing yet, illegal aliens get free medical care. Let’s start by doing away with these free money programs for peope who are here illegally. I live in the southwest and it is pretty much taken over now. So, if i break the law can i get some free entitlements. There is something wrong with the whole system. Shut the border down now. I voted for Mccain because i know the democrats do not support the military. I lived it and i will never support the party of defeat and surrender.

Real Deal   November 1st, 2008 - 4:10 pm

Could someone please explain to me why Obama has been allowed to run for president of the United States but has successfully deferred showing his birth certificate???? Shouldn’t that be part of the sign up process?

Bill Chicago   November 1st, 2008 - 4:16 pm

The worst part about this story is that it was broken by a newspaper based in the UK. If anything, it shows how in the tank the media is. If McCain had a relative that got a parking ticket, it would be the lead story on all the networks.

I’m sorry this old lady is in the crossfire of this, but she brought it on herself. You can’t pick and choose which laws to obey and which to ignore and not expect consequences. The fact that she made a campaign contribution is a criminal act, and you can bet right now there are people in Boston scrubbing her name off the voting rolls.

katiedid   November 1st, 2008 - 4:21 pm

I sure his old illegal auntie was registered by Acorn – like so many illegals were and voted for her dearest nephew. Deport the old lady – she needs to go home – and if she voted she needs to be put in “JAIL”.

Sarracuda   November 1st, 2008 - 4:27 pm

WOW he threw his aunt under the bus. WHAT A SHOCK. Must be getting kinda cramped under there. Let’s see, what does Obama NOT know
1. Reverend Wright, his spiritual advisor of 20 years, NEVER knew he was a racist
2. William Ayers-Just another buddy in my neighborhood, he’s a terrorist, NO FREAKIN WAY
3. Rashid Khalidi-Former PLO spokesperson and known jew hater..WHAT, he hates Jews, NO FREAKIN WAY(By the way, LA TIMES, I WANT THAT TAPE)
4. Tony Rezco-Slumlord/tax cheat..What, he’s a slumlord and tax cheat..NO FREAKIN WAY..I HAD NO CLUE
5. His illegal alien, slum living aunt..What, she lives in a slum, NO WAY, and she’s here illegally..I HAD NO CLUE I SWEAR, I swear on my racist white granny’s life..
So America, is this the guy you want representing you??
Either he is a MORON or a LIAR. I’m thinking he’s BOTH

Cleo   November 1st, 2008 - 4:27 pm

Again, Obama treats us like idiots. If you believe he didn’t know about his illegal “auntie” (as he lovingly refers to her as in his boring self-serving book)I have some ocean front property in MN to sell ya.

Go McCain/Palin 08. McCain’s ahead now in the Polls…Obama is scared and running (oh, I guess that was the press he was running from).

Sundowner   November 1st, 2008 - 4:29 pm

Of course he didn’t know! He doesn’t know much, about anything, other than how to run for office. He’s built up a rather well established list of people he just “didn’t know” about which would lead a smart person to think he was lying or a stupid person into defending his actions. Someone with such a limited foresight doesn’t deserve to be running for POTUS.

Bubbala   November 1st, 2008 - 4:54 pm

DesertThunder: my sympathies, empathy and understandings because I’ve lost two friends to MS after witnessing their years of struggles with the disease.

Right now, you’re right, illegal aliens get far better care than American citizens. I know that Medicaid is usually the last resort for people with MS and other profound problems like that.

I am confident, however, that any national healthcare program would not only not provide better care than one can obtain through Medicaid, it’d be worse (have you ever visited a public health facility — that’s an improvement to what Obama’s ideas would result in).

I agree that all social programs should be disconitinued for illegal aliens, ALL of them. It’ll never happen, however, due to public health concerns (so the argument goes — which is, that emergency care and sustenance “has to be provided” to anyone on demand [interesting how it's usually to illegal aliens, though, while our citizens are ridiculed for asking and then refused] because of public health concerns [should someone remain untreated, it’s likely to spread throughout our civilization to afflict others).

That’s the argument, anyway, that Congress uses to continue to support the federal demand that all healthcare facilities treat anyone and everyone regardless of circumstances (emergency care, anyway).

The issue then is the admittance procedure. NO E.R. will treat anyone who isn’t first admitted to an E.R. So, illegals using E.R.’s for routine healthcare in large numbers (which they do) is a case of the facilities and how they manage their E.R.’s (admitting non-emergency conditions through an E.R.).

They also then bill the taxpayers via Medicaid. Which is why they also addon a lot of goodies they dole out to illegals such as diapers, baby seats, baby formula, “classes” and such…all gets billed at a markup to the taxpayers.

They’re working toward making a profit (not a bad idea) because they’re REQUIRED to provide healthcare to those who can’t/won’t pay for it.

But again it gets put upon taxpayers, just like the housing/high risk mortgage scam was.

Again, my sympathie for your sister. I meant no disrespect earlier.

PaleRyder   November 1st, 2008 - 4:56 pm

Other then his contempt for the constitution and American working class families,is there anything that this empty suit is aware of???

OK so my tax dollars go to pay for Obama’s aunt living here illegally for 4 years. Obama calls me selfish for not paying more in taxes. So I work my tail off so I can pay for lazy people and lazy people here illegally and I’m selfish.

Obama is a joke. Never accomplished a thing, never changed anything, anti-American associates and yet I have to pay more to others.

This is not the America I once knew.

Brenda C   November 1st, 2008 - 5:05 pm

Why should Associated Press release anything? It’s from a source that does not want to be named. You know like the New York Times and the little tape they won’t release? It’s confidential. That’s it boys keep it a secret. I know Obama supporters will understand.

tduck   November 1st, 2008 - 5:12 pm

… how much taxpayer money was spent on this illegal ?
… I want the money back .
… If she voted , I want her jailed .
… After jail , sent her back to Kenya .

======================
FOOD FOR THOUGHT: CHRISTIAN OR MUSLIM?
======================
If the “Messiah of Islam” is a Christian…then he must be a “converted” Muslim since his school papers in Indonesia state that he is a citizen of Indonesia and by faith a Muslim.

If he is a Christian, how could a “Christian be proclaimed the “Messiah of Islam” by Minister Louis Farrakhan…the “one” they have been waiting for…their Messiah?
=======================
C O M M E N T:

She is here illegally…she has to go home to Kenya. It is long overdue…I would suggest that the “Messiah of Islam” accompany her back home…and stay there and run for President of Kenya! He will be very, very popular over there!

America…join with me and the millions and millions of the other “silent majority” who are going to the polls in droves on Tuesday to vote for the only “honest” “all American” candidate…President Elect McCain.

VOTER REVOLUTION ON TUESDAY…BE THERE OR BE SQUARE!

GOD BLESS AMERICA THE LAND OF THE FREE AND THE HOME OF THE BRAVE…MAY OUR GOD CONTINUE TO BLESS OUR GREAT COUNTRY AS WE SEEK HIS GUIDANCE!

Sundowner   November 1st, 2008 - 5:25 pm

lol Word is out to shut his family up till after election day. Nice to see at least he treats family as well as the press he doesn’t like. He’s on a serious ego trip and one can only hope it all comes crashing down around those big ears of his.

He don’t nothin…it’s above his pay grade

Hickok   November 1st, 2008 - 5:46 pm

She was at his Senate swearing in ceremony a mere few years ago, and this gro didn’t know she was an illegal? I guess that’s possible since he attended Wright’s church for 20 years, and never heard him spread hate. Notice how you haven’t heard Mau Mau Michelle speak for 2 weeks. He didn’t want her putting that size 19 foot in her mouth.

Obama is the New Hitler   November 1st, 2008 - 6:01 pm

THIS FAILS THE BASIC LAUGH TEST!

So the all-knowing Messiah says He didn’t know she was an illegal alien and a fugitive from justice.

Yet the book He SUPPOSEDLY wrote features her prominently.

The Boston Housing Authority is SHOCKED, SHOCKED that this was possible.

Yet the Boston Housing Authority claims it’s too hard for people to get into their free housing because of paperwork and identification.

The question all along has been if she’s his beloved aunt, and He’s a millionaire, what’s she doing in a slum? It was a good place for Him to hide her.

If He claims He didn’t know and that He never asked her, “hey, auntie, why won’t you let Me help you out?” what does that say about His judgment?

Somebody, possibly everybody involved, is lying.

And if we believe Him when He says He didn’t know, what does that say about American intelligence and reasoning?

*wags finger*

“I did not have knowledge of that woman, my aunt. Not a single time. Now you need to let me get back to the business of the American gulags.”

Bill Chicago   November 1st, 2008 - 6:08 pm

Does Obama plan to return the tax dollars it cost to support her illegal residency?

Jim Crisp   November 1st, 2008 - 6:09 pm

If Obama is so stupid that he went to church for 20 years and didn’t know the preacher was a racist, didn’t know his aunt was in the country illegally, didn’t know Aerys was a terrorist, and didn’t know Resko was a crook, how in the world could he be intelligent enough to operate a dog kennel, little alone the United States? This man is an accomplished liar with no history of anything positive regarding our country. How could anyone calling themselves informed citizens vote for him? He will destroy our country because it is obvious that “laws” do not apply to him, or his associates.

The Investigator   November 1st, 2008 - 6:19 pm

They still have 30 investigators and lawyers in Alaska..trying to find something on Sarah Palin..(and have come up empty) We have been watching crap unfold everyday about Obama, every day!..and all he says is I don’t know..I didn’t know anything…I never knew them. Something is very wrong here folks..Why the big cover-up? Some of the people who back Obama, have to see what we see, yet they dismiss it like it’s of no concern. Instead they worried about Palin’s clothes as a huge issue, and her child’s pregnancy?..Hillary Clinton was way ahead as the nominee, seemed like a shoe-in..what happened? Nobody really questioned it. Something is wrong, very wrong. The American people have been duped…big time

Grundy   November 1st, 2008 - 6:20 pm

Boy if Obama expects us to believe that he must think wer’e idiots. Were not idiots Obama and we no more than you and your lieing tards no. We need to get rid of ALL the ILLEGALS. Just ship them out. ANYONE who has brok a law should be EXPROTED to a country like France where they would get their throats slit by Muslim Terrorists and their ilk.

THIS MEANS EVEREONE WHO HAS EVER BROKE A LAW OF ANY KIND. This would solve the CRIME PROBLEM, THE DRUNK PROBLEM, THE FORNICATION PROBLEM, THE DRUG PROBLEM, THE RACE PROBLEM, THE LIFESTALE PROBLEM. YOU NO WHAT I MEAN, THE FLAGBURNING PROBLEM, THE TAX PROBLEM, THE WELFARE CHEAT PROBLEM, THE INSURANCE PROBLEM, THE COMMUNIST PROBLEM AND THE MUZLEM PROBLEM. JUST SHIP em out and make them pay for their own Tickets. iF THEY Cant afford it, make them work until they can.

Brenda C   November 1st, 2008 - 6:51 pm

You can go to fundrace.huffingtonpost.com and find out how much and often someone gave to a campaign. I was on there maybe 10 minutes and found one lady that had given three times to Obama and each one was over $2300 dollars. Funny Obama won’t release who has donated.

Truth First   November 1st, 2008 - 6:53 pm

We are living in a new era now. It is an era of hope, justice and peace. An era of social and economic justice. An era where the wicked are punished and the innocent are free from fear and injustice.

2008 marks the end of the Bush Regime and American Imperialism. A time known as BO or “Before Obama”. A terrible time of the sickness America inflicted upon the world.

Obama will heal the world of the wound known as America.

EXCERPTS FROM THE RISE OF HITLER

(Note the similarities with what happened in Germany in the 1930’s when the National Socialists ["NaZis"] usurped the nation of Germany as compared with what the current Democrats are attempting to usurp in the United States of America.)

The German people were desperate for relief from the tremendous personal suffering brought on by the Great Depression, now two years old. Millions were unemployed, thousands of small businesses had failed, homelessness and starvation were real possibilities for everyone.

Civilization itself was unraveling in Berlin where people were fighting in the streets, killing each other in the chaos.

But from their elected leaders, the people got nothing but indecision. In ever growing numbers they turned to the decisive man, Adolf Hitler, and his promises for a better future.

“Now I have them in my pocket! They have recognized me as a partner in their negotiations!” – Hitler told Rudolph Hess.

“Freedom and Bread,” was the slogan used by Hitler with great effect during the Nazi campaign against tired old President Hindenburg.

Joseph Goebbels waged a furious propaganda campaign on behalf of Hitler, outdoing the previous election effort of 1930. Nazi posters were plastered everywhere. There was a whirlwind schedule of speeches for himself and Hitler. The Nazis held thousands of rallies each day all across Germany. They gave out millions of pamphlets and extra copies of Nazi newspapers. Goebbels also used new technology, making phonograph records and films of Hitler to distribute.

Many in Germany saw the Nazis as the wave of the future. After the stunning success of the 1930 election, thousands of new members had poured into the party. Now, in the spring of 1932, with six million unemployed, chaos in Berlin, starvation and ruin, the threat of Marxism, and a very uncertain future – they turned to Hitler by the millions.

In the campaign that followed, Hitler criss-crossed Germany in an airplane, descending from the clouds into the arms of growing numbers of fanatics, at ever larger rallies. He gave them a positive message, promising something for everyone, then ascended back into the clouds. “In the Third Reich every German girl will find a husband!” – Hitler once promised.

But like any politician, Hitler was subject to scandal. A newspaper run by one of the opposition parties, the Social Democrats, somehow got hold of letters between SA Chief Ernst Röhm and a male doctor, concerning their mutual interest in men. Hitler knew Röhm was a homosexual and had ignored it for years because of Röhm’s usefulness to him.

The issue as far as Hitler was concerned was whether Röhm had abused any underage males. Nazi lawyer Hans Frank investigated this and assured Hitler he had found no evidence. Hitler was a little more at ease. Thus, Ernst Röhm, the battle scarred, aggressive storm trooper leader would stay, at least for now, as leader of the SA, now numbering over 400,000.

——————–

Now, the man who had spent his entire political career denouncing and attempting to destroy the republic, was its leader. Around noon on January 30, Hitler was sworn in.

“I will employ my strength for the welfare of the German people, protect the Constitution and laws of the German people, conscientiously discharge the duties imposed on me, and conduct my affairs of office impartially and with justice to everyone.” – the oath taken by Adolf Hitler.

But by this time, that oath had been repeatedly broken by previous chancellors out of desperation and also out of personal ambition. Chancellors Schleicher and Papen had seriously suggested to Hindenburg the idea of replacing the republic itself with military dictatorship to solve the crisis of political stagnation. He had turned them both down.

When a teary-eyed Adolf Hitler emerged from the presidential palace as the new chancellor, he was cheered by Nazis and their supporters who believed in him, not the constitution or the republic.

“We’ve done it!” Hitler shouted jubilantly to them.

—————–

Big bankers and industrialists, including Krupp and I. G. Farben, had lobbied Hindenburg and schemed behind the scenes on behalf of Hitler because they were convinced he would be good for business. He promised to be for free enterprise and keep down Communism and the trade union movements.

The military also placed its bet on Hitler, believing his repeated promises to tear up the Treaty of Versailles and expand the Army and bring back its former glory.

They all had one thing in common – they underestimated Hitler.

On the evening of January 30, just about every member of the SA and SS turned out in uniform to celebrate the new Führer-Chancellor, Adolf Hitler. Carrying torches and singing the Hörst Wessel song, they were cheered by thousands as they marched through the Brandenburg gate and along the Wilhelmstrasse to the presidential palace. Cops on the beat who used to give them trouble now wore swastika armbands and smiled at them. Everywhere was heard the rhythmic pounding beats of jackboots, drums and blaring military parade music.

They saluted Hindenburg as he looked out from a window of the presidential palace. Then they waited at the chancellery for Hitler in a scene carefully staged by Joseph Goebbels. A sea of hand held burning torches cast flickering light on red and gold Nazi banners amid the slow beating of drums in anticipation of seeing the Führer. Men, women and children along with the SA and SS waited. He kept them waiting, letting the tension rise. All over Germany, people listened to this on the radio, waiting, and hearing the throngs calling for their Führer.

When he appeared in the beam of a spotlight, Hitler was greeted with an outpouring of worshipful adulation unlike anything ever seen before in Germany. Bismark, Frederick the Great, the Kaiser, had not seen this.

“Heil! Sieg Heil!,” (Hail! Hail Victory!) went the chorus of those who believed the hour of deliverance had come in the form of this man now gazing down at them.

“It is almost like a dream – a fairytale. The new Reich has been born. Fourteen years of work have been crowned with victory. The German revolution has begun!” – Joseph Goebbels wrote in his diary, January 30, 1933.

An old comrade of Hitler’s sent a telegram to President Hindenburg regarding his new chancellor. Former General Erich Ludendorff had once supported Hitler and had even participated in the failed Beer Hall Putsch in 1923.

“By appointing Hitler Chancellor of the Reich you have handed over our sacred German Fatherland to one of the greatest demagogues of all time. I prophesy to you this evil man will plunge our Reich into the abyss and will inflict immeasurable woe on our nation. Future generations will curse you in your grave for this action.” – the telegram to Hindenburg from Ludendorff stated.

Within weeks, Hitler would be absolute dictator of Germany and would set in motion a chain of events resulting in the second World War and the eventual deaths of nearly 50 million humans through that war and through deliberate extermination.

To begin, Hitler would see the German democratic republic go down in flames, literally. In February, 1933, the Nazis hatched a plan to burn the Reichstag building and end democracy once and for all.

Bill Chicago wrote, “Does Obama plan to return the tax dollars it cost to support her illegal residency?”

Now why must you ASSUME that Obama is in any way RESPONSIBLE for an aunt illegally residing in USA? So far, nothing has been uncovered that suggests that Obama was in any way involved. If he WAS “close” to her and involved, wouldn’t he have her living in or near the Chicago area, so they could interact once in a while?

To assign someone Guilt by association (or blood-relatedness) is just not fair. Bet YOU and everyone reading these blogs has at least one relative you would RATHER NOT KNOW and you have NO CONTACT WITH, so if they do something wrong, should YOU BE BLAMED?

Bubbala   November 1st, 2008 - 8:15 pm

@ “To Bill Chicago” –

The ISSUE HERE is ethics, morals and Obama.

This is his aunt, whether he’s “involved” in “makign her illegal” or whatever else one could invent in story about this, the lady is a living relative who is living in impoverished circumstances who is clearly not displaying the mind and actions of someone entirely “there” in their ability to care for themselves.

Even IF she’s nice and gets along with people, still, look at her circumstances, she’s clearly not altogether mentally well.

NOr is Obama, for that matter.

But, Obama is a wealthy (very much so compared to the average person) man and could easily afford some minor monthly pays to this impoverished relative. The question is, why has he not helped her and why isn’t he?

Instead, he’s out there rushign around to declare he hardly knows her, hasn’t talked with her, yaddayaddayadda…it’s still all about Obama’s big ego, which again indicates HE isn’t mentally well.

He’s certainly not morally and ethically well, and THAT matters in relationship with the job he’s applying for. Furhter indication of his mental aberration is that he assumes he doesn’t need the voters’ permission to take over the White House.

Ojay   November 1st, 2008 - 8:28 pm

Man – this guy Obama seems to know nothing about the people he associates with or even the legal status of an Aunt that he last supposedly saw four years ago. Auntie, I thought you lived in Kenya – what are you doing n the U.S.A.? I am sure the conversation never came up.
We know nothing about this man.
I get the feeling he would drive the bus over his own mother to get what he wants.

He won’t help his half brother living in a tin shack in kenya, He doesn’t help his aunt living in a slum run by the housing authority.
But we are supposed to believe he is going to help America.
Please. The Only person this Kenyan Born Goofball is going to help is himself. Wake up before it is too late!

Mac-101   November 1st, 2008 - 9:25 pm

I can’t say I know everything about all my relatives. Especially all the in-laws here in KY. Everyone is some kind of kin. However, I never wrote that I am my brothers keeper. I do not expect the gov to support my kin. I did not write a book and include them in it. I did not have them attend any ceramonies for me.

That being said, he is a sorry individual. He and his wife make over 1/2 million a year living in a mansion. I personally would of sent at least 10 grand to the head of the clan in Kenya and make sure it got spread around. If his half-brother lives on 12 bucks a year, 10 grand could elevate entire villages to RICH status!

Lastly, I want to know how much she cost the American tax payer and if she voted, if so, how many times!

Bill Chicago   November 1st, 2008 - 9:25 pm

Obama, by his own admission, spoke to her only 2 years ago. Do you seriously believe she didn’t bring up her immigration status to him? This lame “I didn’t know” response got old a long time ago. Why should we believe him?

We are not all stupid with Obama infatuation as you Obamatrons seem to be. To you he can do no wrong. Anything he says or does is somehow divinely inspired, and above the questioning of we mere mortals. Listen to yourselves for a moment. Think about it.

What kind of person is Obama? Here is someone who has deliberately lied about his associations with terrorism and terrorists, both domestic and foreign, who has gained personally by his office working with a convicted felon, and who has achieved nothing that has made America a better place. His only success is in his self-promotion. At what price? Come to this town sometime. We are running out of graveyard space for bullet-riddled kids. Our schools have been reduced to factories producing the illiterate and the hopeless. You need a respirator to deal with the stink of corrupting that comes from City Hall and Springfield. This town, why be modest, the whole state, he claims on his resume has done nothing but suffer from him and his ilk. Obama sits in his Hyde Park home like an island king in a sea of murder and despair.

Maybe it’s being brought up watching MTV, Hell, I don’t know. You Obamatrons are captives of words and images, and ignore the reality. Come here and see it sometime. THIS is the Real World, and it ain’t no beach hose in Malibu or a loft in SoHo, not by a longshot.

Look at the man for once. Listen to his plan. It in nothing more than the same, tired class warfare Us-Against-Them nonsense that has kept The Chicago Machine in power and reduced a once great city into a Third-Worldly nightmare. And Obama is more than just a product of it. He has been an architect of it. And you want to reward him because he talks nice, or it relieves your white guilt or because you want so desperately to believe. Obama is a corrupt, self-centered wrecking ball, and he will end up crushing you along with everyone else. The only question isn’t what damage he will do, but how much. THAT is his real history. That is the truth of the man, not just what you want to believe.

You don’t want a President. You want a living God.

Not me. I want a human being. One I can trust. One that won’t treat me like a second-class citizen for being successful or make me an ATM machine for the moocher class or to revive failed policies of the past.

Remember this. There is a real thin line between a dream and a hallucination. Think hard about which one you are voting for.

Just for the record, since you Fools for Obama need the truth spoon fed to you.

“The Democratic nominee last heard from Zeituni Onyango, who attended his swearing-in ceremony to the U.S. Senate in 2005 and is a half-sister of Obama’s late father, two years ago, when she called to say she was in Boston, the campaign said.”

Hi Bill Chicago.

Sorry pal, it’s over… McCain will let the slim bags that run him, drive his campaign into the dirt… McCain himself was never was in control of any of his own campaign… The polls this night for McCain are ‘horrific’… They should have put the ‘GOP dream machine’ behind Ron Paul… Now, the GOP machine is DEAD…

In my case, two of my former close employees are now convicted cold blooded killers… “I” never taught them that. By chance, we just became co-workers. One was a good friend. I never imagined that late at night he would shoot a guy with a .357 to his chest… Would you blame me for the actions of my friend? If I knew, I WOULD have stopped him ‘myself’… Obama has meet a few thousand more than me, MSM must have missed most of ‘his’ bad guys :D

But you are ‘listening’ to all the lies… We all “know” the lies and sometimes we help them along :D But in the end, we are all trying to do what is right.

Don’t worry, America has lived through the both of our kinds before :) I “lost” in the last two elections, and now I guess ‘my’ turn comes :D

I hope and prey we will do better and make it all good again. Not only for me, but ‘you’ too!!

Nobody expected or wanted Bush to be the disaster he was… A product of truly America’s failure to elect competent leaders. Is Obama the same but a -180 degree failure too?? I hope not.

But there is a saying in the business world. “‘We’ will not allow ‘you’ to fail”. I think Obama has too many chips and hooks in him and around him that will insure that he will not screw up. Bush’s greatest fault is that he would not listen or tolerate those around him that tried to do the right thing instead of his own stupidly stubborn wrong things. Even Nixon was far better there…

In the end. Trust America’s system of government even if you didn’t vote for the ^$#%^$#% :D You are not the first, your will not be the last…

Thank you though Bill, for being one of the few here who actually “thinks”!

= THE OBAMA HIPOCRICY
====================================
Sure, Obama cares for the middle class, the ordinary people. That’s why he can’t even take care of his own family. And, oh yea, his church tithing is less than 1%.

Nick   November 1st, 2008 - 10:50 pm

I’d like to see Lillie McCain, from the black side of the McCain family, come out and publicly endorse Barrack Obama. Obama could say, ” John McCain may not want to welcome you into his family, but we’d be proud to welcome you into ours.”

Bill Chicago   November 1st, 2008 - 10:50 pm

Nick, if you showed up at someones family reunion and said you were a long lost relative, they would all barricade themselves in a garage and start the car.

frupe   November 1st, 2008 - 10:58 pm

Why do we worry about here with millions of illegal Mexican’s here, What a double standand, either we keep them all or deport them all.

Nick   November 1st, 2008 - 11:45 pm

Bill-

You always keep things so light and fun!

WHY VOTE?   November 1st, 2008 - 11:49 pm

Seriously considering just NOT VOTING AT ALL. WHY stoop to vote for EITHER of these LOW-LIFE candidates (each of whom comes with a boatload of disgusting baggage) and their LAME choices for VP????

If we vote for Obama, we could end up with something approaching Socialism-Mafioso-Chicago style; whereas if we vote for McCain, we could end up with that bimbo Palin as our Prez!

WHICH SHALL IT BE: THE LADY OR THE TIGER??? Either way, WE lose!

Why dirty our hands when these are the only VERY crappy choices that a broken, crappy SYSTEM has selected???

How many others feel the same?
Just wondering…

How can you call some distant aunt one of his “associates” ? Give me a break. Many people have distant relations they don’t keep track of.

Obviously they don’t have any relationship. Contrary to what all of you slanderers want to believe Obama has only even visited Kenya twice. He barely knows his relations from there.

Clondike   November 2nd, 2008 - 1:25 am

Why ins’t the MSM telling us about all the years she was hiding out from the Feds in Bill Ayers basement and Obama was buying rum for her?

Phyllis   November 2nd, 2008 - 2:09 am

During his campaign he stated, “I am my brother’s keeper, I am my sister’s keeper.” I quess he meant he’s the keeper of their money. His auntie contributed to his campaign so I guess she can go back now.
When will his lying stop? I guess after the election when all the campaign staff, media and bloggers stop infiltrating (as we witness here on Breitbart) with their lies to depress the McCain/Palin supporters. They have been on the attack for 8 years and have had the media, Hollywood and big money to do it. We are just now witnessing the full extent of what Obama’s agenda has been all along, to Seek and Destroy at any cost.
$600,000,000 raised and not a penny to help his aunt, and Obama supporters want him to “share your wealth” you “selfish people.

davem   November 2nd, 2008 - 2:14 am

his aunt was James Brown?

Lee Gal   November 2nd, 2008 - 2:47 am

The MSM and the LA Times is hiding the fact that the aunt wrote both of Obama’s books and 17 of his speeches. That is why Obama is sending her money and giving her drugs.

The only thinkg legal about Obamovitch is that he is legally stupid. He himself is and Illegal Immagrant and is not Qualified to be President. His Birth Certificate is Illegal. His Airplane is Illegal because he took the Flag off it, in violation of FAA regulations and the Constitution. He is not legally married to “Michelle” who is actually a tranny who got an Illegal operation. He will not release his collage records because he does not have a Legal Degree, it is forged.

He has ran his Campaigne on Illegal contributions which were taken from Illegal activities such as Prostitution, Gambling, Loan Sharking, Smuggling, Gambling, Drug Selling, Mugging, Grand and Petty Larceny and Illegal Arms Sales to the Terrorists.

well, he will likely win – so I’m heading for Alaska, to work in the independence movement. What is President Obama going to do when most Alaskans vote to leave the union because they don’t like the lower 49 telling them to set aside their land for palyground for rich eco-tourists. Especially when the few hundred thousand or so Alaskans could live like Arab oil sheiks if they had full control over their natural wealth. You think PRESIDENT Obama could unite us – forget about it!

In fact, you might see Texas decide it is better off without the rest of the country since it does such a poor job of protecting the borders. Let’s see – goodbye to Utah, they want to go on their own because Mormons don’t like gay marriage. What else

Southern Farmer   November 2nd, 2008 - 6:53 pm

If it is illegal for non-Americans to contribute to an American election, why hasn’t charges been brought against the Aunt of Obama who not only illegally contributed to Obama’s campaign, but is also in the country illegally?

Sigh   November 4th, 2008 - 4:34 pm

B. Samuels:

Hopefully if these states do secede, they will have liberal immigration policies for those of us who work hard and think like them.
