Barack Obama and Raila Odinga -- Did the Illinois senator violate the Logan Act
PaulFVillarreal, Journal! ^ | 10/28/08 | PaulFVillarreal

Obama’s Logan Act Violations: Kenya 06, World Tour 08!

The Logan Act has two basic components:

A) The Accused Individual must not, “without authority of the United States, directly or indirectly commence or carry on any correspondence or intercourse with any foreign government or any officer or agent thereof, with intent to influence the measures or conduct of any foreign government or of any officer or agent thereof, in relation to any disputes or controversies with the United States,”

B) Must not do anything “to defeat the measures of the United States”, which in context means work against the policies of the President and Executive Branch.

If you reflect on this for a few minutes you will realize that this is a complete “hands off” message, no citizen can involve themselves in any dispute of any variety between a foreign government and the US Government without tacit, or direct, Authority of the President unless they themselves have been legally injured and are seeking redress for that injury. Senators, Congressmen and Ex-Presidents do not get a free pass on this.

Of course he violated the Logan Act. But the lamestream press won’t cover it, and the stupid sheep voters don’t understand it. As long as The Chosen One promises welfare Cadillacs, they will vote for him.

Odinga and Obama both Luo:
“We are Taliban”
Watch this video of the conflict in Kenya months back. Odinga and Obama are Luo. Odinga and his American counterpart and strategist Obama both campaigned on this canard of “change”. Obama campaigned for Odinga. Adam pointed out that Obama been in Nairobi politicking more recently than he’s been to Iraq. Why now does Obama pretend he doesn’t know him?

Listen as the Luo calls itself the “Taliban” in the video. It’s graphic, it’s gruesome but it is who Obama supported. Watch the whole thing, particularly the Luos burning church, raping women, and hacking a man to death ........... vid hat tip kasper

Barack Hussein Obama – The Rise of Islam in Kenya

I have worked and traveled in the Christian and Muslim countries of Africa for more than 30 years. I have witnessed first hand apartheid in South Africa, the transition from Rhodesia to Zimbabwe, coups in Nigeria and Sudan, the rise of Al Qaeda, the growth of the Muslim Brotherhood and other key events. In spite of witnessing all these events, I believe that the recent events Kenya stand out as a watershed event signaling emerging resurgence of Islam in Kenya and the beginning of the open Clash of Ideologies between the Muslims and Christians.

The events unfolding do not represent a Clash of Civilizations, ethnic issues or a race issue, the conflict is between Ideologies – Muslim vs. Judeo Christian Ideologies and between Leftist/Marxist authoritarian (Liberal Fascism vs. democratic free enterprise.)

Kenya a Microcosm for Future Events

The battles occurring in Kenya are a microcosm of the future battles that will occur in the West and the United States elections as we witness the growth of Leftist/Marxist – Islamist Alliance striving to achieve “Change” and create a New World Order leading the formation of global Islamic kingdom of God. Whether it is by economic means through the formation of Islamic finance and economics and acquisition of Western assets via the Sovereign Wealth Funds (SWFs), military and political action, or terrorism, the goal is the same. The growth of Islamic Financial institutions and their Sovereign Wealth Funds applying Shariah law should be an early warning to this growing trend. See also: Sovereign wealth rules Financial Times, January 21, 2008.

“It is unlikely the climate will remain this conciliatory. Morgan Stanley predicts sovereign wealth assets will rise fourfold by 2015 from today’s level, which is equivalent to 5 per cent of global market cap. Far too much faith is being put in creating voluntary codes of conduct that emphasize funds ‘independence and transparency.’”

As Christopher Caldwell in his article A feeble defence of our freedoms in the Financial Times of June 23, 2007 commented:

Enough already...

Ping someone else.

I’ve seen almost all the videos about Obama that I want to.

Nothing is going to happen to him, no matter how much you or I want it to...

This is a horrendous waste of time...

A DEMOCRAT CONGRESS will do NOTHING about Obama...

I still say the Obama/Odinga thing would bring Obama down.
THE SHEER AUDACITY OF OBAMA GOING TO KENYA ON OUR TAX PAYER DOLLAR TO CAMPAIGN FOR THE MURDEROUS ISLAM-BACKED ODINGA!!!

Few American voters have a clue about all this!
Why won’t the media touch it? Even Fox won’t publicize it.
Some of us have conducted a letter-writing campaign to Fox get this out to the voter without results.

Read a good account of the whole thing here:

He is a walking violation of the Logan Act. It is a daily occurrence in his life. For some reason this country wants to invite an invasion and for the first time since the revolutionary war we will end up with an occupying force on our shores.

That’s of course in addition to the occupation of the raging left loon goon squad!!!

By mid-February 2008, more than 1,500 Kenyans were killed. Many were slain by machete-armed attackers. More than 500,000 were displaced by the religious strife. Villages lay in ruin. Many of the atrocities were perpetrated by Muslims against Christians.

The violence was led by supporters of Raila Odinga, the opposition leader who lost the Dec. 27, 2007, presidential election by more than 230,000 votes. Odinga supporters began the genocide hours after the final election results were announced Dec. 30. Mr. Odinga was a member of Parliament representing an area in western Kenya, heavily populated by the Luo tribe, and the birthplace of Barack Obama’s father.

Barack Obama and Raila Odinga -- Did the Illinois senator violate the Logan Act

No. Odinga was running for president of Kenya; he was not yet president of Kenya. If he had been running for reelection, then Barry probably would have been in violation.

WRONG, HE did violate.
Any citizen of the United States, wherever he may be, who, without authority of the United States, directly or indirectly commences or carries on any correspondence or intercourse with any foreign government or any officer or agent thereof, in relation to any disputes or controversies with the United States, or to defeat the measures of the United States, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than three years, or both.

This section shall not abridge the right of a citizen to apply, himself or his agent, to any foreign government or the agents thereof for redress of any injury which he may have sustained from such government or any of its agents or subjects.
Obama did this with tax payer dollars.
Clear violation.

Obama’s registration in Indonesia under the name “Barry Soetoro” also raises questions as to whether he adopted that name in the U.S. at any time. According to Illinois state filings, when Obama registered as an attorney in 1991, under the name Barack Obama, he stated he did not have any former names.

So who are we voting for?

No one will do anything because he is black - 1/2 black that is.”

Even that isn’t correct.
He is 1/2 Arab.
