Barack Obama: The flimflam candidate
Jewish World Review ^ | July 18, 2008 | Nat Hentoff

Posted on 07/22/2008 3:04:52 PM PDT by don-o

During my more than 60 years of covering national politics, I have never seen a candidate's principles and character so effectively tarnished — after so extraordinarily inspiring a start — as Barack Obama's.

This is the same phenomenon that gave America Oprah Winfrey. But this is A LOT scarier. All it gave Oprah was tons of money and influence. Obamalamadingdong will have REAL POWER to damage the country in ways about which Winfrey could only dream!

Good point. Mark Levin just played of montage of democrats, including BHO, when they spewed = “the war is lost” - “the surge is not working” - etc

Mr. Hentoff seems to believe that FDR was the previous Messiah. Not surprising he was taken in again, this time by Senator Obama.

Why is it that Liberals always want a ruler instead of a leader?!

Yeah! The guy looks like a mouse.

I can’t believe that wasn’t his nickname.

I believe Hentoff is mistaken about the immunity provision of the FISA bill. Telecommunications companies must be given immunity for actions which they were assured were legal by our government, and with reason: they affected only foreign suspects acting in foreign countries who inadvertently used US data center equipment. That said, he has been a stalwart supporter of the First Amendment and is one of the few honest liberals left in America. He also knows a fraud (Obama) when he sees one.

Take a number and wait in the line over there. When your number is called, approach the messiah bowed 90 degrees at your waist. Spread your prayer rug and kneel before your savior. You are not to look upon or speak to the great one. Say your silent vows to the holy master and the church of the almighty democrats. You will be allowed 10 seconds to complete these rituals. Exceeding the time limits will require you to perform three hail Michelles. Now proceed to the line where you will cast a prepared ballot for your lord. Step to the next line where you will sign over all your worldly possessions to his holiness. Sign the form dedicating your children to the “Get whitey” jihad. Remove your shirt and place it in the reverent recycling bin. Sign the form directing electronic deposit of your repatrations check to Most Holy’s off-shore account. Move quickly and quietly to the exit where you will receive a voucher for 72 virgins of your sexual preference. Remember to pray 24 times daily on your rug facing the master’s throne.
