Obama's FISA Cave-In: Gives Amnesty to Telecom

By the way, even George Soros-funded MoveOn is upset with their Barcky for breaking his promise on this one. From their website:

Yesterday, some congressional Democrats cut a deal to let companies that helped President Bush break the law off the hook. Barack Obama's promised to oppose such a bill in the past. Can you tell him we're counting on him to stand strong against "immunity" for lawbreaking phone companies?

Pied Piper of Change? Or Just Corrupt Crony

In this excellent article from the Boston Globe, you can read about Chicago's attempt to develop and manage low income housing through private developers, and that Mr. Obama, the candidate of change, is nothing more than another Chicago machine-generated pol with his feet firmly mired in the muck of corruption. You'll see how Tony Rezko, FOB, (Friend of Barack's) whom we have known up to now only as a corrupt developer, was and is, in fact, a slum lord, although on a much grander scale than what we usually associate with that term. (Remember when Hillary tried to raise this issue? The boos and hisses she received? How DARE she express concern about public housing for the poor?) Using government subsidies which Obama helped them obtain, Rezko and other FOB's, some now actively associated with his campaign, developed low income housing with fancy sounding names and substandard construction within Obama's state senatorial district.

The article points out that it was Obama's law firm and Obama himself that represented these slum lords when angry tenants complained about overflowing sewage, inoperable heating units and rat infestations. And guess what? Just as we're expected to believe that Obama sat in his church for twenty years and never heard any of Reverend Jeremiah Wright's racist diatribes, now we're told Obama was unaware of the slum-like conditions his constituents were living in, conditions directly attributable to the thievery from public coffers of his political cronies like Rezko. So, what is worse? That he is so clueless that he never heard anything and did not notice anything (when as the senator of this district, this was his JOB), or that he is a liar and corrupt?

Demoagogue: a politician who gains and holds power by playing on the passions of people

"Perhaps it's my atheism at work but I found myself increasingly wary of and resistant to the salvational fervor of the Obama campaign, the idealistic zeal divorced from any particular policy or cause and chariot-driven by pure euphoria. I can picture President Hillary in the White House dealing with a recalcitrant Republican faction; I can't picture President Obama in the same role because his summons to history and call to hope seems to transcend legislative maneuvers and horse-trading; his charisma is on a more ethereal plane, and I don't look to politics for transcendence and self-certification." -- James Wolcott, Vanity Fair

Obama keeps his language vague and ambiguous, letting his followers (which includes journalists too) fill in the gaps with their fantasies and imaginings. Sometimes, the most pleasant thing to hear is the promise of something wonderful, a vague but rosy future that is just around the corner. This is the currency of Obama: the seductive orator just lets his audience dream. There is no greater anaphrodisiac, nothing more soporiphic than policy-talk. Obama does not explain how he will govern, or how things will be accomplished, because his aim is to lift people's thoughts into the clouds, where their defenses will come down. His seductive speech, an elevating drug, makes people not care that he isn't saying much of anything at all.

ABC News report

"Jesus was a poor black man in a country controlled by rich white people" and Obama is like Jesus

"Hillary ain't never been called a n****r!"

"When Minister Farrakhan speaks, Black America listens. Everybody may not agree with him, but they listen…His depth on analysis when it comes to the racial ills of this nation is astounding and eye opening. He brings a perspective that is helpful and honest. Minister Farrakhan will be remembered as one of the 20th and 21st century giants of the African American religious experience. His integrity and honesty have secured him a place in history as one of the nation’s most powerful critics. His love for Africa and African American people has made him an unforgettable force, a catalyst for change and a religious leader who is sincere about his faith and his purpose."

"In the 21st century, white America got a wake-up call after 9/11/01. White America and the western world came to realize that people of color had not gone away, faded into the woodwork or just ‘disappeared’ as the Great White West kept on its merry way of ignoring black concerns."

"When [Obama’s] enemies find out that in 1984 I went to Tripoli to visit Colonel Gadaffi with Farrakhan, a lot of his Jewish support will dry up quicker than a snowball in hell."
