Black Woman Against Obama5:05PMMay 14th 2008

Just a suggestion Tommy, but your medication may need recalibrating, the dosage not the medication itself......

OBAMA SNIDELY CALLED A REPORTER "SWEETIE" WHO ASKED HIM A TOUGH QUESTION.

Why is Obama so condescending to women?

JUST A JOKE --- HANOI JOHN KERRY IS OUTTA-HERE! HE NEEDS TO TAKE HIS BUDDY OBAMBI WITH HIM.

THIS IS FOR THE PEOPLE OF OREGON WHO ARE VOTING FOR THIS CLOWN.

So what does Obama do when he has no plan? He makes up a snazzy title for the pamphlet he delivers to homes.

CHANGE OREGON CAN BELIEVE IN:
“Barack Obama will reinvigorate the drinking water standards that have been weakened under the Bush administration and update them to address new threats. He will help communities by restoring better federal financing for water and wastewater treatment infrastructure, and he will continue his leadership in protecting national treasures like the Great Lakes from threats such as industrial pollution, water diversion, and invasive species. Obama will establish policies to help high-growth regions with the challenges of managing their water supplies.”

GREAT LAKES IN OREGON?

HE’S VISITED 57 STATES?

WHO IS THIS OBAMA?

WHAT COUNTRY IS HE RUNNING IN?

CAMP OBAMA STARTED THE RACIAL GARBAGE when they falsely accused former President Clinton of being a racist, which is the precise moment Obama LOST THE WHITE HOUSE.

I for one will NEVER support Obama after his supporters started that crap. I would rather deal with McCain.

In Barack Hussein Obama Jr.own words and the words of his father.

"All of my life, I carried a single image of my father, one that I .. tried to take as my own." (p. 220) And what was that image? It was "the father of my dreams, the man in my mother's stories, full of high-blown ideals .." (p. 278) What is more, Obama tells us that, "It was into my father's image .. that I'd packed all the attributes I sought in myself." And also that, "I did feel that there was something to prove .. to my father" in his efforts at political organizing. (p. 230)
Barack Obama in his book Dreams of My Father but he neglected to tell all his father dreamed and schemed of.

100% taxation
communal farms / the elimination of private farming
the nationalization of businesses owned by “Europeans” and “Asians”.
“active” measures to bring about a classless society

I have a copy of Barack Obama's paper here in my hand, obtained from the stacks at UCLA (see the picture above). The paper is as describe by Odhiambo and Cohen, a cutting attack from the left on Tom Mboya's historically important policy paper "African Socialism and Its Applicability to Planning in Kenya." The author is given as "Barak H. Obama" and his paper is titled "Problems Facing Our Socialism", published July, 1965 in the East African Journal, pp. 26-33. [UPDATE: I sent Politico a copy, and they've posted a PDF file of the paper here.]

Obama,Sr. stakes out the following positions in his attacks on the white paper produced by Mboya's Ministry of Economic Planning and Development:

1. Obama advocated the communal ownership of land and the forced confiscation of privately controlled land, as part of a forced "development plan", an important element of his attack on the government's advocacy of private ownership, land titles, and property registration. (p. 29)

2. Obama advocated the nationalization of "European" and "Asian" owned enterprises, including hotels, with the control of these operations handed over to the "indigenous" black population. (pp. 32 -33)

3. * Obama advocated dramatically increasing taxation on "the rich" even up to the 100% level, arguing that, "there is no limit to taxation if the benefits derived from public services by society measure up to the cost in taxation which they have to pay" (p. 30) and that, "Theoretically, there is nothing that can stop the government from taxing 100% of income so long as the people get benefits from the government commensurate with their income which is taxed." (p. 31)

4. Obama contrasts the ill-defined and weak-tea notion of "African Socialism" negatively with the well-defined ideology of "scientific socialism", i.e. communism. Obama views "African Socialism" pioneers like Nkrumah, Nyerere, and Toure as having diverted only "a little" from the capitalist system. (p. 26)

5. Obama advocates an "active" rather than a "passive" program to achieve a classless society through the removal of economic disparities between black Africans and Asian and Europeans. (p. 28) "While we welcome the idea of a prevention [of class problems], we should try to cure what has slipped in . we .. need to eliminate power structures that have been built through excessive accumulation so that not only a few individuals shall control a vast magnitude of resources as is the case now .. so long as we maintain free enterprise one cannot deny that some will accumulate more than others .. " (pp. 29-30)

6. Obama advocates price controls on hotels and the tourist industry, so that the middle class and not only the rich can afford to come to Kenya as tourists. (p. 33)

7. Obama advocates government owned and operated "model farms" as a means of teaching modern farming techniques to farmers. (p. 33)

8. Obama strongly supports the governments assertion of a "non-aligned" status in the contest between Western nations and communist nations aligned with the Soviet Union and China. (p. 26)
* By ANDREW TAYLOR, Associated Press Writer Tue May 13, 7:59 PM ET WASHINGTON - House Democrats are proposing a tax surcharge on millionaires to pay for a big increase in education benefits for veterans of the war in Iraq, lawmakers said Tuesday. (Has it already started?)

SHAME ON YOU6:31PMMay 14th 2008

Regardless of who you support, wouldn't the world be a better place without all this hatred. If the candidate you are supporting is not ashamed to have the support of people with such malicious hatred toward other people, they should be ashamed and embarrased and denouce YOU. To those of you with such nastyness toward others: If you do go to church need to get on your knees and pray and repent. If you are not church goers you need to look deep inside to see what your problem is and what is driving your hatred of others. Kindness toward others is the way to survice and thrive. Here is wishing peace and love to all of youno matter who you support.

ALL WHO FEEL FLORIDA AND MICHIGAN BE COUNTED PLEASE SIGN AND MAIL THE FLORIDA PETITION ABOVE, I DID.

I live in PA, but my mother who passed away voted last election for Gore. But she had a stroke and confused and so studied the absentee sample ballot in Palm Beach County well, but the real ballot was changed and thousands upon thousands of absentee ballots therefore were voted incorrectly. Her last ballot before her death didn't count. Here is a women who left behind signed thank you letters from John Kennedy, Robert Kennedy, Humphrey and more and who was a delegate whose last Presidential vote didn't count.

Now her daughter, my sister Kitty, who since 45 (now) 50 is disabled and can't walk, barely use hands and barely talk voted absentee (I was there and helped her). She was so excited and I walked into her room and I couldn't understand her so she pushed the absentee ballot at me and mouthed "HELP". She voted and most animated I have seen her since being stricken. She will forever be in a nursing home, but wanted to vote.

Now Obama is blocking her vote. I am sickened by this.

In a democracy every vote is to count. I feel the DNC has placed us in third world country where a dictatorship (aka DNC) has blocked millions of voters and especially my sister from voting.

PLEASE HELP MY SISTERS VOTE COUNT.

www.DUMMYTV.com - OBAMA IS AMERICA'S BEST BET AT THIS TIME IN HISTORY. THE SAME KNUCKLEHEADS WHO GOT FOOLED BY BUSH ARE READY TO TAKE US DOWN ANOTHER OF THE SAME UNDER-HANDED, DISHONEST, UNETHICAL ROAD. HOPEFULLY, THE SMARTER, MORE AWAKE AND AWARE WILL FINALLY WIN OUT. OBAMA IS THE MOST REAL CANDIDATE RUNNING. HE IS NOT PERFECT--BUT HE IS THE MOST HONEST OF THOSE RUNNING. BILL RICHARDSON WOULD HAVE BEEN GOOD, ALSO. BUT CLINTON IS THE WORST. WAKE UP AND SUPPORT OBAMA--AMERICA'S BEST BET FOR THE FUTURE. www.DUMMYTV.com

I didn't think TC could get even more ridiculous...I was wrong. Can't remember the last time I actually read a story.

Old Lady USA7:56PMMay 14th 2008

Tommy -

Agree on the timing.

Your recent post was right on, I held comment cuz I've been grumpy with him in the way he left - kind of "hi - it's been real - bye" After I calmed down I had to give him his space, he had his reasons and he would tell in time.

In fact, I took a long time to come over to Obama, because I kept hearing Edwards' words - "change", "one country", "special interests"...

Then, I rolled the tape all the way back and realized that Dean set this pace. Then, the Universe brought the appropriate dominos to be played at just the right time.

What I really liked how Edwards treated Hillary tonight.

If you have the time, it would be great to read more.
Maybe the tfitz-inator can do an interview.

Thanks for listening. Now, I have to go take my meds.
