Amy I am a Believer and yes Jesus is the only way to the Father and I find it shocking that Obama even said this
I have never heard him say it, I have heard him say that Jesus was his redeemer. And I wish you McCain supporters would stop saying these hateful things about him. And I did
not say that Mr.Brown said he was n’t
voting I said I assumed he wasn’t.
Because I did’nt plan to vote unless there was a Believer running with the same Christian values that I have.
The values in the Bible that is why I
voted for Mike Huckabee and it didn’t
have anything to do with what party he’s in. And I did n’t like what
McCain did to him either.

Anonymous - LOVED that post. I hope you don’t mind me copying and pasting that thing to email out to all of my friends in PA!

Kathy - I’m glad you posted the “My Way News” story! Awesome!

Anon - love the PLO story. It tics me off that the LA Times is still holding out! We need to rally the troops and bombard them until we get it!

Lavern - as for your comments about Huntley Brown - he made no comments about NOT voting in this election. He has voted in previous elections. His stance is this - he “can’t wait to vote for the first Black president BUT it has to be a person who shares the values I read in the Bible.”

Obama has made it clear that he does not believe Jesus is the only way to God. Based on this, I would question his Christianity. Christians believe Jesus is the only way to the Father. Believe me, if it were up to me, I’d let a lot of people into heaven but that’s not what Jesus said. In addition, when he lived in Indonesia, his step-father “claimed him” as his own (adoption in Indonesia) and had him sent to a private Muslim school. In order to attend, the family had to state openly that they were Muslim. Finally, he seems to make a lot of effort to spend time with Palestinians, including those apart of the PLO. This why we want to see the video tape the LA Times has. On the tape, it has been made clear that those present were making anti-Jew and anti-Israel statements. ANY Christian would be sickened by this because of our heritage. Jesus is a Jew and Israel is the promise land.

Kathy, Huntley Brown is a Christian and a independent and said he did not go along with some of Obama views but if he won he would have his prayer support
daily. He wants to see a black President. I don’t think he is voting in this election. And Anon,Obama does not follow allah he is a Christian although he has heard some false teaching he’s not attending that church anymore, and he said he wanted God to use him,take him over so that he can make a difference,a change. United We
Stand One Nation Under God!

Confirmed: MSM Holds Video Of Barack Obama Attending Jew-Bash & Toasting a Former PLO Operative… Refuse to Release the Video!

Introduction: The LA Times is holding a video that shows Barack Obama celebrating with a group of Palestinians who are openly hostile towards Israel. Barack Obama even gives a toast to a former PLO operative at this celebration. If the American public saw this side of Barack Obama he would never be elected president.
But, the media refuses to release this video.

LA Times writer Peter Wallsten wrote about Barack Obama’s close association with former Palestinian operative Rashid Khalidi back in April.
Wallsten discussed a dinner held back in 2003 in honor of Khalidi, a critic of Israel and advocate for Palestinian rights.
Barack Obama has denied his close association with Khalidi, too.

According to Wallsten the evening not surprisingly turned into a classic Jew-bash:


“During the dinner a young Palestinian American recited a poem accusing the Israeli government of terrorism in its treatment of Palestinians and sharply criticizing U.S. support of Israel. If Palestinians cannot secure their own land, she said, “then you will never see a day of peace.”

One speaker likened “Zionist settlers on the West Bank” to Osama bin Laden, saying both had been “blinded by ideology.”
Barack Obama also praised the former PLO operative during the event.
And, Obama confessed that his family often shared dinner with the Khalidis:


His many talks with the Khalidis, Obama said, had been “consistent reminders to me of my own blind spots and my own biases… It’s for that reason that I’m hoping that, for many years to come, we continue that conversation — a conversation that is necessary not just around Mona and Rashid’s dinner table,” but around “this entire world.”

…The event was videotaped, and a copy of the tape was obtained by The Times.
Khalidi and the Obamas were great friends in Chicago and often shared meals together.
By the way, Khalidi was also best friends with Bill Ayers.

Terrorist Bill Ayers—- Barack Obama—- Jew-hater Rashid Khalidi

On Wednesday I talked with Peter Wallsten from the Los Angeles Times about the article on Obama and Khalidi:


Wallston was one of the few mainstream media reporters to report on this radical Obama associate.

Wallston said that the article was written after he watched video taken at the Khalidi going away party. When I asked him about the video he said that as far as he was concerned he was through with the story.

I asked him if he was planning on releasing this video of Obama toasting the radical Khalidi at this Jew-bash. He told me he was not releasing the video. He also would not comment on his source for the video. Wallston also said he did not know if Khalidi’s good friend Bill Ayers was at the event or not.
So, there you have it.
The LA Times has video of Obama toasting a former PLO operative at a Jew-bash but will not release the video.
This is outrageous.
Obviously, this video would do great damage to Obama who struggles with Jewish voters due to his circle of close anti-Semitic friends.
Maybe this is the reason it is not being released?

More on Khalidi—-
Not only does Barack Obama’s church of 20 years support Hamas and Hezbollah but Barack Obama also has a longtime close friendship and financial association with suspected former PLO operative and Israel hater Rashid Khalidi.
Earlier this month Sean Hannity dared to report on Barack and Michelle Obama’s radical associate and friend, Rashid Khalidi:

Barack Obama funnelled thousands of dollars of cash to Rashidi’s anti-Israel Foundation through his work on the Woods Fund.

In 2000, Rashid Khalidi, a former PLO operative who justified Palestinian terrorism as contributing to “political enlightenment,” threw a fundraiser for his friend Barack Obama.

Although he is described as a former PLO operative, via Free Republic, this is what Rashid Khalidi has to say about Palestinian terrorism against Jews— he said anti-Israel violence contributed to “political enlightenment”:


On Palestinian violence. Khalidi glorifies anti-Israel violence as contributing to “political enlightenment”[vii] and unsurprisingly admires those who carry it out. His loyalty to Palestinian terrorist groups run so deep that he actually dedicated his 1986 valentine to the PLO, Under Siege, to “those who gave their lives … in defense of the cause of Palestine and independence of Lebanon.”[viii] The book whitewashes PLO violence against Israelis and Lebanese, as well as the Syrian occupation.
Khalidi and Ayers were practically best friends.
And, both Ayers and Obama signed the commemorative book given to Khalidi at his going away party:


In Chicago, the Khalidis founded the Arab American Action Network, and Mona Khalidi served as its president. A big farewell dinner was held in their honor by AAAN with a commemorative book filled with testimonials from their friends and political allies. These included the left wing anti-war group Not In My Name, the Electronic Intifada, and the ex-Weatherman domestic terrorists Bernadine Dohrn and Bill Ayers. (There were also testimonials from then-state Senator Barack Obama and the mayor of Chicago.)
It’s hard to imagine that the LA Times would hold onto a video of Sarah Palin praising an anti-Semitic radical and former PLO operative…
But, that is today’s mainstream media.

Tom Maguire has more on this radical friend of Barack and Michelle Obama.

And Lavern, since you brought up GOD. Why don’t you check out Huntley Brown (who is a black Christian concert pianist) site (& on snopes) & why he will NOT be voting for Obama. Obama has many areas where he is lacking in the area of GOD. Again… try doing fact-finding before you regret hopefully following a chance for change (albeit a poor choice of blindly-following).

To all & especially anon & Laverne… Obama spent 3.5 MIL TO ANNOUNCE THE SAME OLD SPIN… CHECK YAHOO AND FACTS CHECKER IF YOU DON’T WANT TO BELIEVE ME…. HERE IS THE FACTS

A sampling of what voters heard in the ad, and what he didn’t tell them:

THE SPIN: “That’s why my health care plan includes improving information technology, requires coverage for preventive care and pre-existing conditions and lowers health care costs for the typical family by $2,500 a year.”

THE FACTS: His plan does not lower premiums by $2,500, or any set amount. Obama hopes that by spending $50 billion over five years on electronic medical records and by improving access to proven disease management programs, among other steps, consumers will end up saving money. He uses an optimistic analysis to suggest cost reductions in national health care spending could amount to the equivalent of $2,500 for a family of four. Many economists are skeptical those savings can be achieved, but even if they are, it’s not a certainty that every dollar would be passed on to consumers in the form of lower premiums.

___

THE SPIN: “I also believe every American has a right to affordable health care.”

THE FACTS: That belief should not be confused with a guarantee of health coverage for all. He makes no such promise. Obama hinted as much in the ad when he said about the problem of the uninsured: “I want to start doing something about it.” He would mandate coverage for children but not adults. His program is aimed at making insurance more affordable by offering the choice of government-subsidized coverage similar to that in a plan for federal employees and other steps, including requiring larger employers to share costs of insuring workers.

___

THE SPIN: “I’ve offered spending cuts above and beyond their cost.”

THE FACTS: Independent analysts say both Obama and Republican John McCain would deepen the deficit. The nonpartisan Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget estimates Obama’s policy proposals would add a net $428 billion to the deficit over four years — and that analysis accepts the savings he claims from spending cuts. The nonpartisan Tax Policy Center, whose other findings have been quoted approvingly by the Obama campaign, says: “Both John McCain and Barack Obama have proposed tax plans that would substantially increase the national debt over the next 10 years.” The analysis goes on to say: “Neither candidate’s plan would significantly increase economic growth unless offset by spending cuts or tax increases that the campaigns have not specified.”

___

THE SPIN: “Here’s what I’ll do. Cut taxes for every working family making less than $200,000 a year. Give businesses a tax credit for every new employee that they hire right here in the U.S. over the next two years and eliminate tax breaks for companies that ship jobs overseas. Help homeowners who are making a good faith effort to pay their mortgages, by freezing foreclosures for 90 days. And just like after 9-11, we’ll provide low-cost loans to help small businesses pay their workers and keep their doors open. “

THE FACTS: His proposals — the tax cuts, the low-cost loans, the $15 billion a year he promises for alternative energy, and more — cost money, and the country could be facing a record $1 trillion deficit next year. Indeed, Obama recently acknowledged — although not in his commercial — that: “The next president will have to scale back his agenda and some of his proposals.”

DOUBLE STANDARD???

Let me see….
Palin hanging by a noose in West Hollywood is “ok” and left in place because it’s “Halloween”. Local law enforcement won’t do anything because it’s “not illegal.”

!!!!!BUT!!!!!

Obama hanging by a noose in Lexington, KY causes people to be “offended and deeply embarrassed.” It was immediately removed when found. In fact, there are plans to apologize to the Obama family.

Hm….

Not only that, but while they’re counting how many SHOES Palin bought (that will be donated to charity), For whatever reason bo went to Hawaii, it somehow cost $400,000!!! Is anyone getting THAT back??

Proposed changes in taxes after 2008 General Election
CAPITAL GAINS TAX

MCCAIN
0% on home sales up to $500,000
per home (couples) McCain does not
propose any change in existing
home sales income tax.

OBAMA
28% on profit from ALL home sales

How does this affect you?
If you sell your home and make a profit, you
will pay 28% of your gain on taxes.
If you are heading toward retirement
and would like to down-size your
home or move into a retirement
community, 28% of the money you
make from your home will go to taxes. This
proposal will adversely affect the
elderly who are counting on the income
from their homes as part of their retirement income.

DIVIDEND TAX

MCCAIN 15% (no change)

OBAMA 39.6%

How will this affect you?
If you have any money invested in stock
market, IRA, mutual funds,
college funds, life insurance, retirement
accounts, or anything that pays
or reinvests dividends, you will now
be paying nearly 40% of the money
earned on taxes if Obama becomes president.
The experts predict that ‘higher
tax rates on dividends and capital gains
would crash the stock market’ yet
do absolutely nothing to cut the deficit.

INCOME TAX

MCCAIN (no changes)

Single making 30K - tax $4,500
Single making 50K - tax $12,500
Single making 75K - tax $18,750
Married making 60K- tax $9,000
Married making 75K - tax $18,750
Married making 125K - tax $31,250

OBAMA
(reversion to pre-Bush tax cuts)
Single making 30K - tax $8,400
Single making 50K - tax $14,000
Single making 75K - tax $23,250
Married making 60K - tax $16,800
Married making 75K - tax $21,000
Married making 125K - tax $38,750


Under Obama your taxes will
more than double!
How does this affect you? No explanation
needed. This is pretty
straightforward.

INHERITANCE TAX

MCCAIN 0% (No change, Bush repealed this tax)

OBAMA Restore the inheritance tax

How does this affect you? Many families
have lost businesses,
farms and ranches, and homes
that have
been in their families
for generations because they could not
afford the inheritance tax.
Those willing their assets to loved
ones will only lose them to these taxes.

NEW TAXES BEING PROPOSED BY OBAMA

* New government taxes proposed on
homes that are more than
2400 square feet

* New gasoline taxes (as if
gas weren’t high enough already)

* New taxes on natural resources
consumption (heating
gas, water, electricity)

* New taxes on retirement accounts
and last but not least…

* New taxes to pay for socialized medicine
so we can receive the same
level of medical care as other
third-world countries

Lavern,
Last November (2006), Obama made a promise to follow limited campaign financing. So….let’s talk about his campaign fundraising and expenditures so far, shall we?

This man has raised over $650 million. $150 million of it last month alone. So much for bad economic times, huh? With over $160.5 million going to the media (I’m wondering if the LA Times got a little something for holding onto that video!), over $44 million to those working for him, and only $26,000 to charity. When you take a look at the break down of his charitable giving - only 3 out of 15 donations were to individuals in increments less then $80! Wow - what a great example of a guy who plans to take my money to give to others in need.

By the way - it’s not HIS money. It’s money that belongs to the campaign. It’s money that mislead voters gave to him with the hope of change. So much for change…looks like more of same.

By the way, Obama’s in some heat for not keeping better records of campaign contributions. You’re only allowed to give $2,300 but people are giving a whole lot more then that by using different names and credit cards. One reporter found him name on the campaign donation and he’s voting for McCain! Others don’t have to give relevant tracking info if they’re giving in increments of $20-$80. So big celebs can give hundreds of $$ by making smaller individual donations with different names. Some of these celebs have donated thousands of $$$$!!!!!

Great Campaign Financing Reform Obama!!!!

Research if you care…

In 2006, Obama visited his native land to campaign for Raila Odinga of the radical Islamist-dominated Luo Tribe, a notorious political thug alleged to be responsible for ethnic cleansing and mass murder on a level never before seen in the normally peaceful democratic state

That is why he raised the money to use it for his campaign.

Sure Lavern, hide your head in the sand. Bet your voting for him because he is a “black” man. Do the country a favor and do some research. It can’t all be lies…. the 3.5 mil isn’t. Thought he had the election in the bag…. guess he isn’t so sure.

OK - So with everything else going wrong in the country & elsewhere, OBAMA SPENDS 3.5 MILLION DOLLARS FOR A HALF HOUR INFOMERCIAL. I am NOT voting for this man.
