Palin hits hard at Obama in California visit ("the heels are on, the gloves are off")
SF Chronicle ^

Posted on 10/04/2008 9:42:01 PM PDT by Chet 99

(10-04) 04:00 PDT Carson, -- Los Angeles County - Vowing to "take the gloves off," GOP vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin unleashed an aggressive new attack against Democrat Barack Obama on Saturday, charging at her first public rally in California that her Democratic opponent "sees America as imperfect enough to pal around with terrorists who targeted their own country."

"This is not a guy who sees America as you and I see America," she said, before a cheering capacity crowd of 10,000 at the Home Depot Center in Carson, in a pointed effort to link the Democrat to William Ayers, a former 1960s radical who co-founded the Weather Underground. "We see America as a force for good in the world."

The Weather Underground took credit for Vietnam War-era protests that included nonfatal explosions targeting the Pentagon and U.S. Capitol.

“The Weather Underground took credit for Vietnam War-era protests that included nonfatal explosions targeting the Pentagon and U.S. Capitol.”

What about the U. Wisconsin physics building, where a prof was killed by a bomb?

They also fail to mention the Greenwich Village townhouse bombing that killed two of the WU terrorists. That bomb was designed by Ayers, was filled with nails and was destined for the Fort Dix officers club. Poor research, SF Chronicle.

They had a man on Fox one evening, who Ayers and his cohorts firebombed their house when he was a boy. He said they tried to wipe out his whole family, but they just managed to get away.

He still sounded quite bitter.

Yep, I'm sure that he's there somewhere looking for some new blades for his circle saw or a new power wrench to fix that leaking plumbing!!!

Could be that he's even looking for a "plumber's friend" to unstop his toilet!

Local coverage said the crowd was over 20,000. I guess the SF paper couldn’t admit that.

Here is the BILL AYERS ad, pass it around.

I heard an interview with someone from this project last night, it was absolutely CHILLING.

They spent a big chunk of money on lawyers to even get this produced, all of it is true, Obama’s high priced liberal inside D.C. lawyers were all over them before they even released it. They are being intimidated with CRIMINAL prosecution for a political ad.

What is going on with Obama is pure Stalinist tactics. In Missouri, as he said the threat of being CRIMINALLY PROSECUTED for not telling the truth about Obama is enough for 95% of people to Shut Up.

They were threatening CRIMINAL prosecution if you disagreed that 95% of people would get a tax cut with Obama’s plan.

Please also watch this video too and pass it around.

Our only way to fight back is to educate people, about 20-25% of the people are lost in this country, we will win this election.

So naturally, the MSM won’t connect the WU to the UW murder bombing.

They are kindred spirits; today’s MSM are pals of yesterday’s SDS and WU.

Obama will go down in history as the most wildly successful sleeper agent/mole of all time.

And he could not have done it without his accomplices in the MSM running cover.

Obama even has his own Hitler Youth groomed and ready to run a little Cultural Revolution to purge all the “wrong thinkers” from society:

Don't forget Rezko and Rashid Khalidi. Seems Rezko funded his professorship at University of Chicago. How about that! Michelle was there as the scool's Associate Dean of Student Services

Talat Othman, one of the chief donors and organizing forces behind the lectureship, spoke of the significance of the award for speakers of Arabic outside academia. With his fellow donors Antoin Rezko, Albert Joseph and Jamal Alwattar listening, Othman explained that the Arab-American community is entering a more settled stage where “they feel comfortable contributing, more than ever, to society.

Donors Albert Joseph and Talat Othman (left to right), Professor Rashid Khalidi, Professorial Lecturer Farouk Mustafa, Dean Janel Mueller and donor Jamal Alwattar gather at a recent celebration in honor of the first Ibn Rushd Lectureship, to which Mustafa has been named. Donor Antoin Rezko, who attended the event, is not pictured.

"Obama's campaign has repeatedly noted that the Illinois senator was a child during the Weather Underground era"

What kind of a response is that? No one said Obama committed the terrorist acts. He's hanging around with an America hating terrorist! that's the problem!!!

The weather underground was the most violent protest groups in the 70s. They were the ones that Kerry couldn’t control since they wanted civil war like Cuba.

That may or may not be true. However, I would like to know what (if anything) you are doing to either help McCain or defeat Barry.

Anything? Anything other than typing that it is over? And if you are ONLY stating on FR that is over, and doing nothing else, you have stated what YOU WANT TO HAPPEN.

Like Limabaugh I see McCain as a failure. Years ago he adapted a view, a simple view that pictured himself as a father figure president giving fireside chats to a worried populace facing a foreign enemy. He is stuck there deluded in his thinking that his liberal foes are good people and not fear mongering sociopaths/psychopaths. As for Palin she needs to stake out positions slightly further than Father John thinks his liberal friends will be upset with. He is done, she might have a future.

So, when exactly did you decide that you and your work and your voice was not needed, and that THE O was our and our kid's destiny?

Good Lord, McCain is what he is, not my first choice by any means, but it is down to these two, one of which will be CIC.

You seem pretty calm, regardless of the outcome. I'll say again: What is it that you want, and what are you willing to fight for? At this point, I would say, you are not willing to fight for one damn thing.

SARAH PALIN: Thank you, too, Shelly [Mandell, President of NOW's LA Chapter] for that kind introduction [...] and your endorsement. [...] And with your help, Shelly, in November, all of us that consider ourselves progressive --you know at the same time we can be conservative-- we're gonna shatter the highest, hardest glass ceiling in America. I was looking at Shelly's resume before I came out here and I thought, oh, there's some diversity; I like this, it's good. And [...] I've got to share with you --it was like kind of providential-- yesterday what happened to me. I can use this today after that introduction from Shelly: I'm reading on my Starbucks mocha cup, ok? the quote of the day. [...] It was Madeline Albright, former Secretary of State [crowd boos] and UN ambassador. [...] Now she said it, I didn't. She said, "There's a place in Hell reserved for women who don't support other women." [crowd cheers] Ok, now thank you so much for receiving that well. I didn't know how that was gonna go over. And now, California, let's see what a comment like I just made, how that is turned into whatever it'll be turned into tomorrow with the newspaper.

In these most troubling times for our economy it is beyond reckless to ask Americans to support a trillion dollar change agenda. Save it for times when America is at peace and prosperity Obama you are as Radical, Reckless and Irresponsible as your Chicago associates, Ayers, Rezko and Wright. Obama, Not ready to lead.

EVERYTHING Carla Marinucci writes for the SF Comical is SATURATED with LIBERAL BIAS.

Note that she made no mention of the endorsement of the head of the LA Chapter of N.O.W.

And how about this whopper from the Obama mouthpiece:

“Sanchez, the Obama spokesman, said the Annenberg public-private partnership was founded with the help of a Republican governor to improve Chicago schools, and that Obama and Ayers were never associates in that work.”

Palin scheduled no time for questions from reporters in Carson, and is not scheduled to speak to the press in her Bay Area stop, the campaign said.

Why talk with these fools when they will not accurately report what she says?

She's correct in ignoring these buffoons and going directly to the public.
