Operation Chaos: Phase II has caught on

Yesterday (July 9) Rush Limbaugh announced on his program his intentions on phase two of "Operation Chaos." If you are an avid listener, you know exactly what this is. But if you are not, here is a brief explanation: Barack Obama has sent out an open invitation to take part in the campaign’s effort to democratize the party platform.

Limbaugh Begins Second Phase of 'Chaos'

July 09, 2008 3:19 PM

ABC News' Steven Portnoy Reports: Rush Limbaugh, opening the second phase of his “Operation Chaos” campaign to make mischief within the Democratic Party, called on his millions of listeners Wednesday to take part in the Sen. Barack Obama campaign’s effort to democratize the party platform.

In announcing his latest “orders from headquarters,” Limbaugh called “all forward position troops in the 50 states – make that 57 states” to alert. (During the primary campaign, Obama mistakenly said that he had visited “57 states.”)

Limbaugh, who is now referring to the presumptive Democratic nominee as “the Most Merciful Messiah, Lord Obama,” urged his audience to attend open meetings at which the Democratic platform will be discussed.

“This year, with the blessings of the Messiah, Lord Obama, the process of writing the Democrat party platform will be open to the public. Do you see where we’re headed here?” the nation’s number-one commercial talk radio host suggestively asked.

This week, the Obama campaign and the Democratic National Committee announced plans to hold meetings in all 50 states to get voters involved in planning the document which details the principles, philosophies and goals of the party.

“You will be allowed to sit in the same room as elitist Democrat operatives to craft the Democrat party platform,” Limbaugh told his audience – estimated by industry trade magazine "Talkers" to exceed 14 million listeners a week.

“In coming days, we will tell you exactly how you can participate in writing the Democrat party platform, at the request of the Most Merciful Lord Barack Obama.”

During the first phase of the talk host’s “Operation Chaos,” Limbaugh called on fans to vote for Sen. Hillary Clinton, D-N.Y., in open Democratic primaries, to belabor the process and leave both Clinton and Obama bloodied.

While no empirical evidence exists to back up his claims, Limbaugh maintains the effort was a success.

On his program Wednesday, Limbaugh also called on his listeners to enter themselves into the Obama campaign’s lottery of donors who will be chosen to meet Obama backstage before his nomination acceptance speech at INVESCO Field at Mile High in Denver.

Iran shoots off missiles, causes increase in gas prices

What will the messiah Barack Obama do when Iran eliminates Israel? Obama is not pro-Israel so it could happen.

Below is the AP story from today (7-9) from Yahoo! News:

------------------------------------------

By Andy Sullivan Wed Jul 9, 9:13 AM ET

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama called Iran a threat that should be contained with diplomacy and tighter sanctions on Wednesday, and Republican John McCain said Tehran's missile test proved the need for a missile defense shield in Europe.

Iran launched nine medium- and long-range missiles to warn the United States and Israel it was ready to retaliate if they attacked over its disputed nuclear projects. Oil prices climbed on the news.

The candidates, who will face off in the November election, used the event to underline their contrasting approaches to the Middle East, which has been supplanted as U.S. voters' No. 1 issue by the struggling economy.

"I think what this underscores is the need for us to create a kind of policy that is putting the burden on Iran to change behavior, and frankly we just have not been able to do that over the last several years," the Illinois senator said on CBS television's "Early Show."

Obama, who called Iran a "great threat" on ABC's "Good Morning America, said President George W. Bush has not backed up confrontational rhetoric with economic sanctions. Obama cited reports indicating that U.S. exports to Iran have increased during Bush's years in office.

McCain, who has called Obama's willingness to meet with U.S. foes such as Iran naive, said the Iranian tests proved the need for a missile-defense shield in Europe.

"Working with our European and regional allies is the best way to meet the threat posed by Iran, not unilateral concessions that undermine multilateral diplomacy," McCain said in a prepared statement.

The United States on Tuesday signed a pact to build part of the missile shield in the Czech Republic. The Bush administration also wants to install facilities in Poland, although talks have stalled.

These efforts have angered Russia, which has said it will respond militarily if a shield is deployed near its borders.

Obama wants our kids to learn Spanish

The messiah, the lord of all that is, Barack Obama says Americans need to learn Spanish to help out the illegal Mexicans who cross the border by fence or desert or by water.

Obama is ashamed that "we" as he said describing all Americans don't know a second language when "we" go to Europe.

Obama says our children should learn Spanish so they can communicate with Mexicans.
We, as Americans, are having to bend backwards for Mexicans so they feel at home in the United States. Just look at the aisle signs at your neighborhood Lowe's store or in your cabinet at you Proctor & Gamble product.

If we start speaking many different languages in the United States and it becomes large enough to split America in regions, we will no longer be the "united" states anymore. It is already happening in California, Arizona, New Mexico, Colorado and Florida.

Below are the words of the great messiah Barack Obama. Listen how he talks about Spanish and he then says a French phrase, what's with that? Does he know what Spanish is?

Obama To Have Open Convention at "Mile High"

Barack Obama is letting people see the messiah in person, and for free, at Denver's Invesco Field at Mile High on Thursday Aug. 28.

He is inviting people, through pay of over $5, to see him, so it's not exactly "free" but don't tell the messiah that.

And, there is a chance that the 10 people selected will have some say in what Obama says to the thousands in attendance and I'm sure millions across the country through television.

The messiah is sounding more and more like some other people who have ran for political office. You know, those people who people thought could be the anti-christ, such as Adolf Hitler. Hitler went to large venues to speak before he became ruler of Germany.

I don't want to compare Obama to Hitler, but there are some coincidences. I'm sure Obama is a good man, but he is in love with himself a little too much and why does he need more money if he is so wealthy from the prior money-grabbing campaigns.

Keep in mind that Obama has not even been in the United States Senate for a full term. He was elected in 2004 and it takes six years to complete a full term. So what does he know? But afterall, he is the messiah and he can do no wrong.

Obama Frustrates Me, G-8 Summit

Obama, Obama, Obama. What more can I say? This guy gets away with anything. He is perfect. I have to admit that now. Nothing can tarnish him. He is only changing many of his stances on what he plans to do once he is sworn in. But who cares, apparently CNN and MSNBC don't. Fox News tries, but they can't do it all.

Obama is only friends with terrorists, but no worries. He is the messiah. He is going to fix everything. But nobody knows how except that he is all about "change" and "hope." A rabbit can do the same, maybe a rabbit should run for president.

A True Plan of Obama's is to eliminate global warming by having no cars on the road because nobody will be able to afford gas. This is true.

And in other news, the Group of Eight Summit in Japan is going swimmingly. Soon we will all be swimming in water from the polar ice caps because that's all they seem to worry about. Al Gore phenomena has caught on worldwide and now the world believes that global warming is our certain doom.

In reality, it is the sun that heats the Earth, but don't tell that to the liberals of the world. It is the United States that heats the world according to them.

So, the G-8 Summit will be a waste of time this year since they'll be talking about something that is not even real. But who cares, this is the world we now live in.

Prediction: The United States will lose its Super Power status during the Obama Administration. With no oil drilling, no new nuclear power plants, decreased military spending and eliminating our nuclear arsenal, we are doomed. We will go the way of the Roman Empire and a new Communist Regime will take our place, China. Nobody would have thought that in the 1960s. And, look out, Russia will follow. Just wait and see.

Flip-flopping Versus "A Slight Change"

This is hard to believe, but this is true. Have you been watching CNN lately? It is almost unreal.

With John McCain's campaign moving towards the Right, CNN is calling this "flip-flopping." McCain is trying to get the conservative voters who may end up voting for Libertarian Bob Barr. He is trying to get the conservative base of the party. This may be "flip-flopping," but if a Democrat does the same thing it is now called "a slight change."

Barack Obama is moving his campaign towards the middle far away from where he was a month ago when he was all about being as far left from Hillary Clinton as he could be. Now with the Clinton campaign now defunct, he has taken many of her tactics and this is not "flip-flopping."

Double standard? Is this news or opinion, CNN?

"Flip-flopping" and "swift boating" have now become bad phrases. And if people think back to four years ago, the swift boaters who were against John Kerry stated the truth and now they have now been drowned into the ocean. Anybody who states anything bad about a Democrat must be a bad guy. That's how CNN sees it.

"CNN: We Know Politics." Really, it sounds like they make things up. Oh, wait, that is politics. They are doing quite well. Make up history and spin it to make it the truth, that's what politicians do.

Empty Seats for Messiah Speech

Is the honeymoon over? What happened to the standing-room-only raucous crowds that are in front and behind Barack Obama? Is the flame finally burning out?

Well, maybe in Missouri.

If you still have hope. You are fine. If you still want change. Good for you. Do you know what this hope and change is? Nope. Not even Obama knows. So, join the club.

Here's the truth from a report from KSHB-TV in Kansas City as heard on the Rush Limbaugh Program.

-----------------------------------
From The Rush Limbaugh Program
(July 1, 2008)

BEGIN TRANSCRIPT
RUSH: This is Chris Hernandez who is NBC Action News, Kansas City. When we played sound bites of Obama's political speech yesterday on patriotism in Independence, we listened to it, and it sounded like there was the usual Obama throng, correct? Thousands and thousands of people fainting, shrieking, throwing their underwear up there, going wacko. Not the case. Here's the report from Kansas City's NBC affiliate last night.

HERNANDEZ: There were a couple of hundred empty seats even though Obama's staff says all 1,000 tickets were given out in just two hours Saturday, and this was a much quieter crowd than at previous Obama events.

UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE OBAMA SUPPORTER: It was very quiet in there at one point. I felt like I was at church, almost, right before he came out.

HERNANDEZ: A member of Obama's staff tells me they didn't want to overbook and then have to turn people away, but apparently some people who got tickets Saturday didn't show up today. The quieter atmosphere may have also been because this was considered a more serious speech, and no political leaders came out to whip up the crowd before Obama started speaking.

RUSH: I didn't know that that was necessary. Political leaders whip up the crowd? Political leaders usually put 'em to sleep. I thought it was Obama that whipped up the crowd. I thought it was Obama that was The Messiah. I thought it was Obama who caused people to shriek and lose sense of their dignity and go nuts. Two hundred empty seats. They were giving them away all morning long. In a place that holds 1,000 people. So we would have never known this, we would have never known it, and outside of Kansas City nobody did know it until you just heard the Kansas City NBC report just now. That is another example of this program providing a much-needed public service, doing the job the Drive-By Media used to do but won't, i.e., tell you the truth.

Economy is too poor for Starbucks

Starbucks Coffee announced today that the company will close 600 underperforming stores which would be the elimination of about 12,000 jobs.

Did Starbucks expand too quickly across the nation or is the economy at fault? It is probably a combination of the two, but each certainly did not help the other.

As Starbucks is closing many stores, other companies are feeling the same crunch.

I'm sure the prices at Starbucks did not help in this poor economy. People have to think, gas or coffee, the obvious answer is gas and go somewhere else for a cheaper cup of coffee.

American Auto Sales Drop Big

What happens when gas prices hover atop $3.50 per gallon for June? Hmmm, good question.

Answer: American auto sales suffer.

What can be done? The obvious answer is to drill and build new refineries in the United States.

Will that happen? Heck no.

Below is the month of June's stats:

All-India Congress Committee to Have 11-day Prayer for Obama

From: The Hindu

11-day prayer for Obama’s success

Staff Reporter

Congress leader invokes blessings of Hanuman

15 kg, 21-inch brass idol will reach Obama by August 24

NEW DELHI: Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama can now expect help from an unexpected quarter — Lord Hanuman.

All-India Congress Committee member Brij Mohan Bhama has organised a 11-day religious ceremony at Karol Bagh here for his success in the U.S. elections.

The idea of sending an idol of Hanuman dawned on him after friends in the United States mentioned a “prominent American politician who carried a miniature Hanuman idol in his pocket for luck,” Mr. Bhama said speaking on the first day of the ceremony on Tuesday.

“After hearing that, I decided to gift Mr. Obama a larger, gold-plated version along with the wishes of thousands of his supporters in this country,” said the leader struggling to lift the 15 kg, 21-inch brass idol.

The first-day ceremony, pranapratishta, or infusion of divine life into an idol, was performed by a dozen priests reciting mantras in tandem. It was attended by Democrats Abroad India chairperson Carolyn Sauvage, who spent over an hour at the venue.

The idol was later kept in the sanctum sanctorum of the Sankat Mochan Dham, where it will be kept for 10 more days. Mr. Bhama said several temples in New Delhi had already expressed an interest in keeping the idol for worship on their premises before it begins its journey across the Atlantic.

Along with the idol, a copy of Hanuman Chalisa, a compilation of hymns in praise of the Lord, would be sent.

“We will ensure that Mr. Obama receives the idol by August 24, a day before the Democratic National Convention in Denver, Colorado,” said Mr. Bhama.

DNC Says "NO" Coors Brewing at Convention

At this year's Democratic Convention in Denver, Colo. it will be the healthiest and greenest convention ever.

Coors Brewing Company of Golden, Colo., wants to donate biofuel made from beer waste to power the convention's fleet of flex-fuel vehicles. But, the Democratic Party says No. Why you ask? Because Coors has backed the Republican Party and has conservative ideals. Coors wants to help out the local convention, but the convention says no. Is this trying to move the country forward?

Here are some of the plans at the Convention--
* banners be made of canvas or corn-based bio-plastics -- and recycle them into handbags after the convention
* Hundreds of free bikes will be available
* The stage inside Denver's Pepsi Center will be built with salvaged plywood and other recycled or reused material, and the podium will be finished with eco-friendly paints and soy-based sealants
* All the signs and placards will be made from post-consumer recycled or biodegradable materials. It will all be recycled after the event
* Light bulbs at convention venues have been replaced with energy-efficient models and faucets retrofitted with water-saving spigots

Madison Proposing Banning Drive-Throughs

A member of the Madison Plan Commission wants to ban restaurant drive-throughs because as the car idles it sends harmful emissions into the Earth's atmosphere that causes global warming. This is just the beginning.

Below is Mike Ivey's column from The Capital Times:

-------------------------------
Mike Ivey: Should Madison ban the drive-through?

Mike Ivey — 6/25/2008 11:37 am

First it was a proposed ban on plastic bags.

Now, a member of the influential Madison Plan Commission wants to ban the restaurant drive-through -- or at least restrict the ubiquitous symbol of America's auto-centric lifestyle.

"Given the concern about all the carbon going into the atmosphere, I'm not sure we should be building more places for people to sit idling in their cars," says Eric Sundquist, who was appointed to the citizen panel by Mayor Dave Cieslewicz this spring.

A former newspaper reporter in Atlanta now working as a researcher at the UW-Madison's Center on Wisconsin Strategy, Sundquist notes that several cities in Canada have recently moved to ban the drive-through coffee shop or stand-alone fast food restaurant (www.ecospace.cc/culture/drive-thru-ban.htm).

"Bans haven't gotten as far in the U.S., although I know San Luis Obispo, Calif., has one," he says.

The issue came up last week during discussions over a conditional use permit for a new Starbucks coffee shop along a congested frontage road across from East Towne Mall.

The site at 4302 E. Washington Ave., in front of the Crowne Plaza Hotel, formerly housed the Frame Workshop retail store but has been vacant for more than a year. Property owner Tim Neitzel now wants to lease half of the 3,300 square foot retail building for a Starbucks that will also feature indoor and outdoor seating.

To facilitate the drive-through, developers are using a portion of the Crowne Plaza parking lot. Drivers picking up their morning coffee will have to make a circle route through the property to avoid potential traffic backups.

But nearby business owners are concerned about bringing more cars through the already congested intersection of East Washington and Continental Lane. The owner of a gas station on the frontage road said it's not uncommon for cars to wait through three traffic signal cycles to get across East Washington.

East Towne area Ald. Joe Clausius admitted the intersection is a problem and said with the Starbucks it "could get very backed up." Still, he said the corridor is badly in need of some redevelopment.

"I'm constantly getting peppered with questions from people about what is happening there and when will it happen," he says.

City officials have given their lukewarm support to the Starbucks, which is scheduled for a November opening. They say it could help create a more pedestrian-friendly atmosphere near the Crowne Plaza.

"While many future customers will likely be driving automobiles, hotel guests and residents to the north represent a potential walking customer," says city planner Heather Stouder.

Sundquist is planning to bring the issue up before the city's Long Range Transportation Planning Commission on which he also serves.

"I know a ban might be difficult so a better approach might be to restrict them," he says, noting an ordinance in Davis, Calif., puts a number of restrictions on drive-throughs, including one relating to air pollution.

Middleton hotel

There are no signs of economic distress in Middleton, where developers continue to pursue major projects.

The latest is from Central Place Real Estate, which is proposing an ambitious redevelopment of the 3.9-acre former Prefinished Millwork site at the southwest corner of University Avenue and the Beltline.

A concept plan submitted to the city of Middleton earlier this month calls for demolishing the existing buildings and replacing them with a six-story, 125-room hotel built over 32,000 square feet of retail space. A three-story office building would anchor the other end of the project.

Parking would be provided in 130 underground spaces and 150 surface stalls.

Given the poor soil and water table conditions, developers have been talking with the city about TIF assistance, according to Central Place president Rob Zache.

Northgate update

The Madison-based Alexander Company is currently finalizing purchase of the venerable Northgate Shopping Center on North Sherman Avenue, home of Dorn Hardware and the Frugal Muse Bookstore, in addition to 19 other tenants.

Currently owned by the Northgate Partnership, the property is assessed at $4.1 million.

The purchase would be the first foray into Madison's north side for the Alexander Company, which has specialized in urban infill redevelopment projects.

Detailed plans for the center haven't been released but could include building and site improvements, Randall Alexander told the Northside News recently.

Obama Focuses on Indiana, 13 other Bush States

Barack Obama believes he can win Indiana.

Indiana has not gone the way of the Democrats since 1964 with Lyndon Johnson and prior to that 1936 with Franklin Roosevelt. So I guess it could be about time for a Democrat to win Indiana. But the chances are not very good. However, many young naive voters who don't know any better may be voting for Obama as well as the die hard Democrats who always say "my vote doesn't count." So the chance is higher than normal.

But if these young voters only knew what Obama stood for they may not vote for him, but they will continue to be naive by not paying attention to the news and reading his own website on what he believes in.

The other states that Obama believes he can win are Alaska, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Missouri, Montana, Iowa, Nevada, New Mexico, North Carolina, North Dakota, Ohio and Virginia.

Some of those states are rather conservative: Alaska and Georgia. Colorado is a state where California liberals have moved in to change the voters block.

This is Obama's plan. We shall see.

Terry Bradshaw Admits to Steroid Use in '70s

The NFL quarterback of the '70s Terry Bradshaw admitted yesterday to using steroids to get over injuries quicker. His whole Pittsburgh Steelers team did the same. This team won four Super Bowl Championships in the decade and was called "The Iron Curtain."

This is really nothing new. I bet most the professional athletes around the world, not just football, were using steroids.

Here is what Bradshaw said on the Dan Patrick Show:

“We did steroids to get away the aches and the speed of healing. My use of steroids from a doctor was to speed up injury, and thought nothing of it. … It was to speed up the healing process, that was it. It wasn’t to get bigger and stronger and faster.”

If this was the 21st century when this happened, I would be all upset, but this was the 1970s. But, we will know how the steroids affected this team and many others by what happened in their lives after football. So be sure to check if your favorite olde time player is still alive or is healthy.

I will still watch Bradshaw on Fox NFL Sunday.

This Would Only Happen in Muncie

A seven-year-old boy decided he wanted to go on a joy ride to the Muncie Mall. As cars tried to stop him, he crashed near the Burger King west of the mall and near the Outback Steakhouse east of the mall.

It's amazing he made it to the mall. In a city like Muncie it is hard to stand out as a bad driver when most have no idea what to do when they hit the roads. In a city that wont pave its streets, it is fitting that a seven-year-old would begin to drive. Now, I bet that many kids have been driving in the city. This was just the first to get caught. Just like smoking and having babies, kids are getting younger and younger when they begin, this is the same when considering driving.

At least Muncie made the news, nothing seems to happen there. I bet people were jealous of the news Frankfort got last week. Good for Muncie!

Below is the Muncie StarPress story on this amazing seven-year-old:

Seven-year-old driver takes joy ride to mall

By RICK YENCER • ryencer@muncie.gannett.com • June 25, 2008

MUNCIE -- Matthew Sands had to look twice at the driver of a red Geo Tracker that passed him on Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard Tuesday morning.

"He was awful small to be driving," said Sands of Hartford City.

Sands and Carvin Mafatau, another driver who called 911, followed what appeared to be a small child, who barely could be seen above the dashboard, driving down the street before turning into the Muncie Mall.

Mafatau told police he tried to stop the vehicle as the 7-year-old boy crashed into a bush near Burger King west of the mall. The boy drove off around the mall and then crashed into a bush and tree near Outback Steakhouse when Sands stopped his car and tried to get the keys out of the Geo.

The boy then threw the vehicle in reverse and backed into Sands' car in the mall drive off Granville Avenue.

Sands got the keys out of the car and saw the boy behind the wheel.

County Sheriff's Capt. Mike Scroggins was the first to arrive, and was expecting a teenager behind the wheel on a joyride. It was something the veteran law enforcement officer had never seen in 22 years.

Police Lt. Steve Cox and other officers arrived and were just amazed that a 7-year-old child was behind the wheel.

"It as incredible he made it this far," said Cox, explaining he drove from Waid Avenue on MLK to the mall.

Police Sgt. Linda Cook, who heads MPD's child protection team, said the boy and his mother were staying with the boy's grandmother, Lindy Smeltzer, who was the owner of the Geo.

The boy is a special needs student at Muncie schools, and was being watched by the grandmother, Cook said, because the mother had health problems and was sleeping.

"(Smeltzer) has just given the boy medicine and had laid down with him to take a nap," said Cook.

The next call Smeltzer got was from 911 just after 9 a.m. asking her if she knew where her Geo Tracker was.

When the boy was asked how he learned to drive, Cook said he played a Play Station game.

Smeltzer, who lives in the 2100 block of North Macedonia Avenue, only said her grandson wanted to see his brother and had never attempted to drive previously. She declined to identify her daughter, identified by police as Lindy Smeltzer II.

Police investigated the call as a child neglect case, but made no arrests.

Child protective services did talk to the family, Cook said, and devised a safety plan to make sure the boy does not get his hands on the keys again.

Cook added the boy did wander away from home a couple years ago and CPS was involved.

"They will keep an eye on the family," said Cook, adding there would be home visits.

New Book, Dr. James Dobson Criticize Obama

It is all starting to hit the wall now. Day after day, more and more people are beginning to come out to show who Barack Obama really is. Announced Monday, a new book about Obama is in the works to be released on Aug. 4, Obama's birthday, will criticize the presidential candidate. The book is written by David Freddoso and is titled "The Case Against Barack Obama: The Unlikely Rise and Unexamined Agenda of the Media’s Favorite Candidate."

Yesterday (June 24), Dr. James Dobson has joined in the criticism of Obama. He focuses on Obama's distorting of the Bible. Below is the Associated Press article about Dobson and Obama.

------------------------------------------------

updated 11:43 a.m. ET, Tues., June. 24, 2008

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. - As Barack Obama broadens his outreach to evangelical voters, one of the movement's biggest names, James Dobson, accuses the likely Democratic presidential nominee of distorting the Bible and pushing a "fruitcake interpretation" of the Constitution.

The criticism, to be aired Tuesday on Dobson's Focus on the Family radio program, comes shortly after an Obama aide suggested a meeting at the organization's headquarters here, said Tom Minnery, senior vice president for government and public policy at Focus on the Family.

The conservative Christian group provided The Associated Press with an advance copy of the pre-taped radio segment, which runs 18 minutes and highlights excerpts of a speech Obama gave in June 2006 to the liberal Christian group Call to Renewal. Obama mentions Dobson in the speech.

"Even if we did have only Christians in our midst, if we expelled every non-Christian from the United States of America, whose Christianity would we teach in the schools?" Obama said. "Would we go with James Dobson's or Al Sharpton's?" referring to the civil rights leader.

Dobson took aim at examples Obama cited in asking which Biblical passages should guide public policy — passages like Leviticus, which Obama said suggests slavery is OK and eating shellfish is an abomination, or Jesus' Sermon on the Mount, "a passage that is so radical that it's doubtful that our own Defense Department would survive its application."

"Folks haven't been reading their Bibles," Obama said.

'Deliberately distorting'
Dobson and Minnery accused Obama of wrongly equating Old Testament texts and dietary codes that no longer apply to Jesus' teachings in the New Testament.

"I think he's deliberately distorting the traditional understanding of the Bible to fit his own worldview, his own confused theology," Dobson said.

"... He is dragging biblical understanding through the gutter."

Joshua DuBois, director of religious affairs for Obama's campaign, said in a statement that a full reading of Obama's speech shows he is committed to reaching out to people of faith and standing up for families. "Obama is proud to have the support of millions of Americans of faith and looks forward to working across religious lines to bring our country together," DuBois said.

Dobson reserved some of his harshest criticism for Obama's argument that the religiously motivated must frame debates over issues like abortion not just in their own religion's terms but in arguments accessible to all people.

He said Obama, who supports abortion rights, is trying to govern by the "lowest common denominator of morality," labeling it "a fruitcake interpretation of the Constitution."

"Am I required in a democracy to conform my efforts in the political arena to his bloody notion of what is right with regard to the lives of tiny babies?" Dobson said. "What he's trying to say here is unless everybody agrees, we have no right to fight for what we believe."

The program was paid for by a Focus on the Family affiliate whose donations are taxed, Dobson said, so it's legal for that group to get more involved in politics.

Possible visit
Last week, DuBois, a former Assemblies of God associate minister, called Minnery for what Minnery described as a cordial discussion. He would not go into detail, but said Dubois offered to visit the ministry in August when the Democratic National Convention is in Denver.

A possible Obama visit was not discussed, but Focus is open to one, Minnery said.

McCain also has not met with Dobson. A McCain campaign staffer offered Dobson a meeting with McCain recently in Denver, Minnery said. Dobson declined because he prefers that candidates visit the Focus on the Family campus to learn more about the organization, Minnery said.

Dobson has not backed off his statement that he could not in good conscience vote for McCain because of concerns over the Arizona senator's conservative credentials. Dobson has said he will vote in November but has suggested he might not vote for president.

Obama recently met in Chicago with religious leaders, including conservative evangelicals. His campaign also plans thousands of "American Values House Parties," where participants discuss Obama and religion, as well as a presence on Christian radio and blogs.

Official Obama Criticizer, Certified Black Enough to Criticize

Ladies and Gentleman, Mr. Bo Snerdley-

"This is Bo Snerdley, official EIB Obama criticizer, certified black enough to criticize. I have a statement. Mr. Obama, your highly publicized attack on Republicans this week claiming they are readying a racial attack against you is unbecoming and indefensible. In fact, sir, your general attack on Republicans with no evidence to support it is an example of you using unfounded stereotypes to smear an entire group of people. It demonstrates your own bigotry. Your promise to change, your promise to bring hope, instead, what do we get? You revert to the status quo, race card and fear, in order to inoculate yourself and your party from intellectually honest criticism. It is your associates who utter racist and sexist remarks like Jerry Wright, Reverend Pfleger. It is your Democratic Party, your liberal media pals that put race out there time and time again. Bill and Hillary Clinton's race remarks, the smears about your drug days, the Muslim thing, the Hussein thing, all that came from Democrats. Now the SCLC saying you're not black enough because you don't have slave blood? What's that, Mr. Obama? And the entire country saw it, except perhaps you. That is, if we can believe you. After all, what you say one day changes like the wind. You're running for president, sir. Grow a set. Comport yourself like a proud, strong black man, not a weak, cowering victim.

And now, a translation for EIB brothers and sisters in the 'hood. What's up, easy money? I ain't trying to diss you, yo, but this race thing you fronting is counterfeit. Everybody scoped it, yo. It was your homeys that were out there flat blast jamming you on the race thing, not those punk ass Republicans. Those lames are too afraid to call nighttime dark because they think your homeys in the press will macaca them out of office. Yo, look, yo, man, they ain't going to use the race card on you, man. They ain't going to try to make the bodies drop on you like that. Check it out, man. It's been your boys out there with the race thing, man, your frontin' boy Jeremiah, your boy Farrakhan, your boy Pfleger. Your boys are saying you ain't even got slave blood, yo. What's up with that? Michelle got slave blood, you don't have none? Yo, man, come on. By the way, man, where is Michelle, man? You kind of keeping her out the spotlight, yo, man, she kind of looking lace, man, you got to get her some face time. Yo. But check this out. You trying to be smooth, you trying to spin this all out of control, accusing those punk ass Republicans of doing what your medieval Democrat racist brothers been doing all along, but it ain't going to play. Look, man, I told you before, you wanted the game, you in the game, so you got to play real and you got to get played out. You can't run with the lions at night and play with the kittens in the day. You talking all this change stuff, then change it up, yo. Get off this race thing and come for real about what you got, what you gonna get, where we gonna be if you get in, you feel me, bro? That concludes this statement."

Obama brought this upon himself- Barack the Magic Negro

With presidential hopeful Barack Obama now declaring that Republicans are racists it is time to bring back Paul Shanklin's parody "Barack the Magic Negro" as heard on the Rush Limbaugh Program.



Below is NBC's Today Show criticizing Limbaugh on airing this song a few months ago. Watch and enjoy.

Obama is now playing race card

Obama calls Republicans racists.

This is what Barack Obama said in Jacksonville, Florida at a campaign rally:

"We know what kind of campaign they're going to run. They're going to try to make you afraid. They're going to try to make you afraid of me. He's young and inexperienced and he's got a funny name. And did I mention he's black?"

Here's the CNN video of this speech from YouTube:


Barack Obama is now calling Republicans racists. May I remind Obama that it was the Republicans were the ones who were against slavery, the Democrats were and some still are the racists. Southern Democrats founded the KKK, not Republicans. Abraham Lincoln freed the slaves and he was a Republican. Ike Eisenhower, a Republican, was the first president to have significant civil rights acts since the 1870s. Eisenhower sent in the Arkansas National Guard to escort the "Little Rock Nine" into Little Rock Central High School. The governor of Arkansas, Orval Faubus, a Democrat fought to keep the school segregated.

When was history changed? When did people become ignorant? When did people begin to believe whatever they hear?

Obama is looking more presidential

Barack Obama introduced his take on the Presidential Seal on Friday to the democratic governors of Chicago. It features a Latin phrase similar to the real "E pluribus unum" which means "Out of many, one." In place of that, Obama's seal says, "Vero possumus" - a rough Latin translation of his slogan of "Yes, we can."

Remember, Barack Obama's campaign is "Powered by Hope."

Here is a closer look at the real Presidential Seal and Obama's version:




Has anyone ever declared victory this early?

Democrats continue to block ways of getting lower gas prices

AP Story from today (June 21)

Bush says Democrats keep blocking his energy plans

By DEB RIECHMANN, Associated Press Writer 1 hour, 15 minutes ago

WASHINGTON - President Bush is accusing Democrats in Congress of blocking his energy proposals, saying they are partly to blame for high gasoline costs pinching Americans' budgets.

In his Saturday radio address, Bush urged Congress to lift its long-standing ban on offshore oil and gas drilling to increase U.S. energy production. Democrats have rejected the idea.

"This is a difficult time for many American families," Bush said. "Rising gasoline prices and economic uncertainty can affect everything from what food parents put on the table to where they can go on vacation."

Bush said offshore drilling could yield up to 18 billion barrels of oil over time, although it would take years for production to start.

There are two prohibitions on offshore drilling, one imposed by Congress and another by executive order signed by Bush's father in 1990. Bush's brother, Jeb, fiercely opposed offshore drilling when he was governor of Florida. What the president now proposes would rescind his father's decision — but the president took the position that Congress had to act first and then he would follow behind.

Congressional Democrats have been quick to reject the push for lifting the drilling moratorium, saying oil companies already have under lease 68 million acres on federal lands and waters — outside the ban area — that are not being developed. Drilling proponents say that number is misleading because sometimes it takes years for actual development to take place.

"This week, President Bush and his Republicans allies rallied behind the oil industry's political agenda once again and advocated opening more of America's federal land, including coastal areas, to drilling," Rep. Nick Rahall, D-W.Va., chairman of the House Natural Resources Committee, said in the Democratic response. "This proposal will not bring the type of relief Americans deserve at the pump."

Bush says he wants to ease the regulatory process to expand oil refining capacity and lift restrictions on oil shale leasing in the Green River Basin of Colorado, Utah and Wyoming. Oil shale is a type of rock that can produce oil when exposed to heat and other processes.

"One major deposit in the Rocky Mountain West alone would equal current annual oil imports for more than 100 years," Bush said. "Unfortunately, Democrats in Congress are standing in the way of further development."

Bush said that in a spending bill last year, Democratic leaders inserted a provision blocking oil shale leasing on federal lands. "That provision can be taken out as easily as it was slipped in — and Congress should do so immediately," he said.

Bush also reiterated his desire to open the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge for drilling, saying scientists have developed ways to reach this oil in northern Alaska with little impact on the land or local wildlife.

Bush said opposition from Democratic leaders opposition to his proposals has helped drive gas prices to record levels.

"I ask them to reconsider their positions," he said. "If congressional leaders leave for the Fourth of July recess without taking action, they will need to explain why $4-a-gallon gasoline is not enough incentive for them to act."

Let the Obama Flip-Flopping Begin

Democratic Party presidential candidate Barack Obama said and said again that he has a plan to become energy independent when he becomes President of the United States. Yet, he is against drilling for oil in Alaska and off-shore in the Gulf of Mexico. How are we to become energy independent if he won't do anything. Is this "independence" going to happen on its own or will it happen when we, as Americans quit buying gas because we can no longer afford it? With no one driving, this would satisfy Al Gore and his pet global warming. Although, Gore will continue to fly on his private jet.

Obama is not for the American automotive industry. He is out to destroy it.

Below are two videos of Obama's energy independence plan of the past, the plan of just a few months ago.

Where are the McCains?

Republican Presidential Candidate John McCain is somewhere. We don't see him on the news with all this Barack Obama worshiping. We assume he will be on the ticket in November. Unless the GOP gives up to the savior.

He has a wife, right? We see Michelle Obama on the news all the time, even on ABC's "The View" which really isn't the view of America's women with four liberals and one conservative.

Anyhow, where is Cindy McCain? Come to think of it. Where is John McCain?

Is this the first time in history where the media has only focused on one political party's candidate?

If it wasn't for Fox News, McCain might as well be invisible.

And they say that the media isn't biased.
