Decision '08: After criticizing McCain for mentioning that Hamas endorses him, Obama says it's understandable that Hamas would do so. Just how anti-Hamas and pro-Israel is the Democratic front-runner? And just why did he fire an adviser who talked with the group?

Barack Obama would like us to believe that the Rev. Jeremiah Wright who ranted anti-American profanities at the National Press Club was not the man he saw from the pews of his church for two decades.

He'd also have us believe that Weatherman terrorist bomber William Ayers, who played host to his first fundraiser and with whom he would later serve on a board, is just a "guy in the neighborhood."

Similarly, Obama would have us believe he doesn't accept the recent endorsement of his candidacy by Ahmed Yousef of the terrorist organization Hamas. John McCain, he said, had "lost his bearings" for asserting, "If Sen. Obama is favored by Hamas, I think people can make judgments accordingly."

We have, and we hope the American people will as well.

Obama told CNN that McCain's remarks were "offensive" and that it was "disappointing" his Republican rival would engage "in that kind of smear . . . particularly since my policy toward Hamas has been no different than his."

Oh, really? If McCain's remarks were a "smear," senator, why did you tell the Atlantic magazine:

"It's conceivable that there are some in the Arab world who say to themselves, 'This is a guy who spent some time in the Muslim world, has a middle name of Hussein and appears more worldly and has called for talks with people, and so he's not going to be engaging in the same sort of cowboy diplomacy as George Bush." Except these people launch rockets at Israel and oppose its existence.

57 states? An excellent education with no applicable understanding of country, history, georgraphy, or the American people. Does understand the African people: "That's why I'm so dedicated to trying to make sure that our young people, in Kenya, in the United States, in the Congo, all children can be well, all children can get the medicines that they need, all children have the opportunity to study, and, ultimately, get employment, so that they in turn can support a family, that all children have that same opportunity," continued Obama. "There is no reason why we can't do that. We have enough resources. We have the knowledge. We have the technology. What we lack is the commitment and will."

Barack Hussein Muhammad Obama cannot lead a country he knows so little about, I am speaking of America.

The fact of the matter is that the MUSLIMS believe Barry is still Muslim. They forgive his heresy because they know the situation he’s in. But then there are a few mullahs who believe in the sentence the Koran describes for heresy.
Interesting.

"By the way, isn't it funny how Obama can mention his middle name in a national forum when convenient, but if a Republican uses it, it's racist and offensive?"

That is how Osama is going to run his entire campaign, scream "racism" at every opportunity possible. He's doing the same with Hillary, (she said "white" the other day) even though he's trying real hard to refrain from using this campaign strategy with her, saving it for McCain.

He really doesn't have to worry about McPain at all. He'll loose the election all by himself simply by making campaign promises for things Americans hate, things like "reducing global warming", and "amnesty" for example.

Thanks C from E for the Barack Hussein Mohammed Obama update.

Are you serious? Those are two issues where they differ not a whit.

I wonder what the Quakers in Kenya think of Obama. Kenya has more Quakers than any other nation does.

Nope. That’s the point: if he WEREN’T still Muslim, they’d have to kill him. They believe he is concealing his Islamicism in order to conquer the infidels.

Exactly. But the people whp are true-believers on those issues will vote for Obama no matter what.

Racism is real in America. What planet do you come from? Wake up!

[the invisib1e hand]

Racism is real in America.

Real? It's a freaking industry; and is widely used by blacks.
