The Great Lie - America did not see the real Barack Obama last night
nationalreview ^ | David Freddoso

Posted on 08/29/2008 6:48:37 PM PDT by flyfree

For months, Barack Obama has complained about the poverty his family suffered while earning a mere $200,000 per year. Last night he ridiculed his political opponent for a joke he had made about high-income earners qualifying as “middle class.”

Last night, the man who opposed welfare reform bragged that while serving in Illinois he had “moved more families from welfare to work.”

The man who misled the public for four years about his vote to let a Chicago-area hospital continue leaving premature abortion survivors to die, and who promised that his first act as president will be to re-legalize partial-birth abortion, offered this calm plea to the nation: “We may not agree on abortion, but surely we can agree on reducing the number of unwanted pregnancies in this country.”

David says it better than I can-—

“”””By what criteria does a man choose his friends and end up with the likes of Tony Rezko, Jeremiah Wright, and William Ayers? How does he choose his political advisors and end up with advocates of reparations for slavery, fans of Hugo Chavez, and two individuals who have been forced to resign over their alleged connections to Hamas?

When Obama’s poorly chosen friends become liabilities, he suddenly shows a level of cognitive dissonance unworthy of the obviously intelligent author of Dreams from My Father:

“This isn’t the Tony Rezko I knew . . .”

“The [Rev. Wright] that I saw yesterday was not the person I met 20 years ago . . . ”

Thanks to Kurtz’s work, we may soon hear, “That was not the William Ayers I knew . . . ”

What happens when you put someone like Obama in a room with Mahmoud Ahmadinejad? A few years later, after a smiling President Obama’s reassurances about Iran’s intentions prove untrue, you might hear this statement from the White House: “This is not the Mahmoud Ahmadinejad I thought I knew . . . ”

The man who repeatedly stifled reform, who endorsed and embraced systemic corruption throughout his career in Chicago and Springfield, campaigns as the agent of positive change. The man with no judgment campaigns as the “wise leader.” There is a pattern to all this.

Many voters, similarly lacking in judgment, will be fooled by last night’s speech. If Obama wins, they should not be surprised, three years from now, to hear themselves saying something similar:

“This is not the Barack Obama I thought I knew . . . ”

The whole Libturd Dem convention was a lie that the MSM will speak loud enough and long enough until the propaganda lie is believed as the truth.

In addition, the Obama supporters don't want the truth. They're like X-Files abductees: they want to believe... Throw in the libturd liberal left-wing America-haters that will vote in anything anti-America / dismantle-America candidate...even if he's a cartoon character.

They want a Marxist-socialist-collectivist-communist big-government state like China or Russia and they will by any and every means necessary by Satan have it if they can.

I wouldn’t know.

I didn’t watch him.

From what I’m hearing, I didn’t miss anything.

there are some great lines in this article...

Obama sides with Mayor Richard M. Daley 100 percent of the time, whether in regards to Stroger’s election or anything else that helps keep Chicago politics dirty

Obviously, this man has no respect for women.

He left out another of Obama's mentors, Frank Marshall Davis, the commie perv.

I not only judge him by the company he keeps, but by the quality of the people who support him.

If it walks and quacks like a duck, it's a duck.

“a lie that the MSM will speak loud enough and long enough until the propaganda lie is believed as the truth.”

A.K.A ALINSKY.

We need to claim conservative values for this and the next generation to defend against the deviant lies that the MSM-Alinsky snake oil salesmen peddle.

“We may not agree on abortion, but surely we can agree on reducing the number of unwanted pregnancies in this country.”

Yeah, we don’t agree. We think abortion is killing babies, you don’t. If it isn’t killing babies then why do we need to reduce the number of abortions? If it’s just a medical procedure then it is nothing more than an appendectomy. Hypocrites.

Or is his name: “Barry Soetoro”, in reality; and is he really an Indonesian citizen?
