True Believer: Obama Was for Black Liberation Before He Was Against It
National Review magazine ^ | June 30, '08 | Stanley Kurtz

By this point, nobody can seriously suggest that Barack Obama was unaware of the hate-filled rhetoric emanating from the pulpit at Trinity United Church of Christ until it was, very recently, pointed out to him. Why Obama joined the church in the first place is interesting. Some of his defenders suggest he did so to advancce his career as a community organizer. The residents he needed to reach and the contacts he needed to make went to Trinity, so he went there too. In this view, Obama was merely being practical, not radical. Don't believe it. This was no matter of convenience or expediency. Obama's connection to the radical left politics espoused by Pfleger and Wright are broad and deep, and he largely approved of their political-theological outlook. Obama shared Wright's rejection of black "assimilation," and the pursuit of "middle-classness." His goal was not to repudiate religious radicalism but to channel its fervor into an activist organization. How do we know all this? We know it because Obama has told us.

Great pictures! I especially like the one in which the messiah has a halo. By the way, National Review had a great article in the May issue about Obama’s anti-Israel and pro-Palestinian connections. But that was before the messiah tried to ingratiate himself with the Jewish vote by pretending to support Israel’s right to exist.

I heard that Allen West will be giving a speech addressing Obama and the use of “race” in politics. The GO WEST campaign will be videotaping the speech and it should be released sometime next week.

Even though both his grandfathers were rabbis the Marx familly “converted” to Christianity and young Karl was baptized in a Lutheran church in his 6th year. This was before Karl discovered that religion was the opiate of the masses. I wonder if he and Engels would have turned the church into a Marxist center for propaganda for the proletarians if they had discovered a 19th century version of Jeremiah Wright. By the way, Marx was also a vehement anti-Semite and racist. One of the greatest scholars and historians of Marxism was the late Edward Hallett Carr of Oxford. In one of his books on Marx he has a chapter titled “The Jewish Nig**er” which tells why that’s how Marx referred to his rival at the time, Ferdinand Lassalle.

There is little doubt that the Obamination will get the vote of the self hating JINO’s and their $ support. However, the real Jews in control of Israel will not allow the Obimination’s desire to destroy Israel take place.

I have been posting a possible scenario if the Obamination is elected:

John Bolton agrees with what I have been posting for a while:

Bolton: Israel Will Strike Iran if Obama is Elected
newsmax.com ^ | June 25, 2008 | Rick Pedraza

Posted on Wednesday, June 25, 2008 7:16:00 PM by Free ThinkerNY

Former U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations John Bolton believes Israel will stage a raid against Iran’s nuclear facilities if Democratic nominee Barack Obama wins the upcoming presidential election in November.

Bolton, often labeled a resolute neo-conservative, believes the Israeli attack would take place sometime between the day after Obama’s win and his inauguration on January 20 of next year.

In an interview with FOX News, Bolton says, “I think if they are to do anything, the most likely period is after our elections and before the inauguration of the next President.”

Bolton reasons Israel won’t be able to hold off a strike on Iran any longer than that given the Illinois senator’s intended foreign policy toward the Islamic Republic.
“I don’t think they [the Israeli government] will do anything before our election because they don’t want to affect it,” he says, adding, “They’d have to make a judgment whether to [strike] during the remainder of President Bush’s term in office or wait for his successor.”

What I have posting:

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/news/2035442/posts?page=25#25

The Obamination gets elected Potus, and it is January 20, 2009.

The Obamination has just said his version of being sworn in as Potus:

“ I do solemnly swear [or affirm] that I will not support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic, I will not bear true faith and allegiance to the same: that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion, and I will not faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter. So help me Allah. ”

As the Obamination starts to speak, his Pentagon guy, Muhammed Ragshead, with the football tells the Obamination, that shorty after he was sworn in, Israel destroyed the political and military assets of Iran and Syria. The Mossad has killed every al Queda leader in Iran, Iraq, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Europe and America.

Also, Israeli leaders on world wide tv are showing and documenting the Obamination’s full Islamofascist connections and most of the rats in Congress. They have demanded the surrender of those members of Congress and the Obamination to Israel and Iraq for abetting the killing of innocent Israelis and Iranians by supporting Islamofascists.
George $oreA$$ and his family members and various phoney non profit leaders are in Israel at this time being tried as War Criminals.

At this time GW gets up with Laura, and they wave goodbye to the Obamination and his Obamabots as they leave for Texas.

I think Bolton is a great patriot and a very shrewd analyst of the political situation in the Middle East. I still have yet to finish his book, “Surrender Is Not an Option.” He may be right about Israel attacking Iran if Obama wins the election. Somebody has to do something besides conduct endless and worthless sanctions and empty talk. If these apocalyptic mullahs get a nuclear arsenal sooner than we guess they will, there will be a tectonic change in Middle Eastern power politics. Not only will Israel be threatened but so will we because Iran will obviously supply other rogue agents with WMD to be detonated here. I must admit I’ve been very disappointed with Bush’s Iran policy. He’s just kicking the can down the road. I know he’s preoccupied in Iraq but that doesn’t absolve him from his very serious and solemn promise that he would NOT allow that member of the Axis of Evil (Iran) to acquire nuclear weapons. It reminds me of Madame Albright toasting Kim Jong IL at the notorious “Agreed Framework.” Soon we’ll have Akhmadinejad laughing at us along with Kim. Not only that but I believe we should coordinate any attack of Iran with Israel. All military experts agree this will be an extraordinarily difficult exercise - and, if successful, the post-military consequences may devastating with respect to oil and the world economy.
