"He Lied" About Bill Ayers?

The GOP is grasping at straws. They have nothing substantive against Obama, but boy are they good at making up lies. This is the leading Karl Rove tactic for years, and if America falls for this again we should be ashamed of ourselves. Not to mention the obvious fact that this is all a smokescreen to keep the focus off of the fact that Palin and her Alaska associates are in contempt of court for refusing to testify in the Troopergate hearings. After Nixon and Clinton, Americans are to some extent jaded, but really, would you want a VP who refuses to attend hearings in her own defense, and instructs her employees not to testify? That smells like guilt. It surely doesn't give the impression that she has done no wrong and has nothing to hide.

This year, the GOP offers you an angry old man and a woman who, while personable, is desperately uniformed about national and international issues. Both of them are far right politically. McCain used to be a maverick, but since 2004 he's voted 90% with Bush. McCain's policies are not original or reformist, despite how he's tried to co-opt Obama's popular message of change. Please go to the websites of both of the candidates and read their platforms. Obama's Blueprint for Change has more good ideas than McCain's plan. Compare them yourself. Obama's basic premise is that tax dollars should be spent to make America stronger and to improve the lives and well being of our people. For example, he uses education programs to train a new technology workforce, contributing to energy independence, creating jobs and improving the economy. When you read McCain's plan you will find no over-arching design to get America back on track. Instead you'll find more tax cuts for the wealthy, de-regulation of the health care industry, and a stated intent to overturn Roe v. Wade.

I'm a Republican. Although I embrace some forward-thinking social values, in the past I've rarely voted Democrat. My thinking was that since Republicans grow robust economies, by voting Republican I'd be endorsing a plan that would grow wealth for our nation, and then we'd be able to afford social programs. It was a good strategy for a couple decades, but I have to say that the tenure of W. Bush has changed my mind. Not only is there nothing fiscally responsible about today's GOP, the insidious alignment of the party with religious intolerance has really turned me off.

On the other hand, the intelligent luminous thought of Barack Obama has ignited my patriotism. I want a President who puts America first and can get the economy back on track. In my mind, values voting takes a back burner when we are faced with a meltdown of the economy. It is time for a change, a real change. The Republicans have controlled the Presidency for 28 of the past 40 years, but they have fallen down on the job. The Democrats have a stellar candidate this year, and I am voting for Obama.

On October 10, the Alaska Legislative Council found Sarah Palin guilty of abusing power. Immediately Ms. Palin said "if you read the report you'll see that there was nothing unlawful or unethical about replacing a cabinet member." This quote by Palin is only 50% true. The Legislative Council report says it was LEGAL for her to fire Commissioner Monegan, since as Governor she has the right to hire and fire her staff at will. The report also says that her firing of Commissioner Monegan was an UNETHICAL abuse of power.

Palin tells you half of the truth, and lies outright about the other half. You know the old saying: If you tell a lie, make sure it contains some truth so it will be believable.

From the report:

Palin tried to force the Commissioner to prosecute Trooper Wooten (her former brother in law) for illegally shooting a moose. The Commissioner explained to Palin that if they charged Wooten they would also have to bring charges against Palin's sister, who was present on the hunt, had the moose permit and illegally let her husband use it. They would also have to prosecute Palin's father, who cut up the moose and stored it in his freezer, sharing the meat with the Palin family. In other words, the Palins were OK with Wooten illegally shooting the moose when it happened. They participated in the hunt and kept the meat. But a year later when Wooten was divorcing Palin's sister, suddenly the Palins turned him in for illegally killing a moose.

The Palins turned Wooten in to the State Troopers disciplinary commission about a year and a half before she became Governor. The Troopers investigated Wooten, finding that some of Palin's allegations were true and some were false. The Troopers disciplined Wooten with a few days' suspension. When Palin tried to get Monegan (the new Commissioner) to re-open the case once she was Governor, Monegan told her he couldn't do it. All the allegations had already been investigated and Palin had no new evidence. Trooper Wooten belongs to a union, and he can not be fired just because the Governor doesn't like him.

So, the Palins hired a private investigator to trail Wooten, trying to catch him doing something wrong. The investigator took photos of Wooten dropping his kids off at school, using his patrol car. The Palins file a complaint, saying it is illegal for him to ferry his kids in a patrol car. They try and get him fired for this, except it turns out that since Wooten was working a swing shift, his Commander had given him a waiver to bring his kids to school in the car.

Wooten and Palin's sister have been divorced 3 years, yet the Palins continue to persecute Wooten. Palin just can't forgive and get past this family drama.

_report_to_the_legislative_council.pdf

The political career of Sarah was launched by radical right-winger, Steve Stoll and the extremist Mark Chryson who directed the AIP in the 1990s. Both men played a pivotal role in the election of Palin as mayor of Wasilla and shaping her political agenda afterward. Stoll and Chryson not only contributed to Palin???s campaign financially but played active major roles. As a result, ???First Dude??? Todd became an active AIP member from 1995 to 2002. While Palin has been careful in her dealings with AIP as she rose through political ranks; she has privately remained in close touch with the organization and its members and leaders. She attended the 1994 and 2000 AIP conventions and in 2006 she was the convention keynote speaker. She did not personally attend the 2008 convention but she recorded and sent a video of greetings and good wishes. She asked the AIP leaders and members to keep up their good work!
Neither Sarah nor Todd has ever denounced Joe Vogler or their association with the AIP. During this campaign, Sarah has remained very silent about this dark side. Based on her own logic, it can be said that she continues to "pal around" with her unpatriotic husband and friends who not only hate America but want to destroy it. Under the same theory of ???guilt-by-association,??? John McCain can be accused of having a ???disguised conspirator??? on his ticket. It was a bad judgment of him to select someone with such tarnished background.
Sarah has refused to publicly share her views and opinion about this nation. Her struggle to answer simple questions by Katie Couric is a testament of her inner negative feelings about America. In a follow up interview with Carl Cameron, Sarah surprisingly said, "The Sarah Palin in those interviews with Katie Couric was annoyed.??? Then she added, "I did not want to get clobbered.??? What was she annoyed of and what was she afraid of being clobbered for? Simply, her longstanding association with the AIP and its members has not only made Sarah an ignorant and bitter person but also a disguised conspirator against our nation. Since the relation between Obama and Ayers has been investigated we the campaign major news media such as CNN, NYT AP and others would investigate Sarah???s association with the secessionist Alaska Independence Party as well its current and former members.

In a few weeks we will make a choice that will decide our future.
I follow an economist named Bob Proctor. He has called the top and bottom of every market crash since the 70s correctly.
Also, he perfectly predicted the current real estate market meltdown and the picture he paints about what will happen in the next couple years
is terrifying.He thinks it will be worse then the great depression.
The banks in the U.S. are going under one after the other. Countrywide ,Bear Stearns, Lehman Brothers and Merrill Lynch , Fanny and Freddy Mae ,AIG
The government took them over because they are essentially bankrupt. Even with the goverment nationalizing hundreds of billions of dollars in debt the stock market is crashing
the credit markets are frozen and all of us may suffer beyond anything in the last 80 years.
McCain just like Bush " doesn't understand the economy".
That not just my opinion its his own words. Not only does he not understand how to fix it but he does not understand exactly what is broken.
It is no surprise that he doesn't. The people that make up these securities use complex mathematical models very few people understand.
Bush and McCain both can take the credit for this mess since they helped deregulate the laws that were protecting us.
Bush's economic advisor Phil Graham wrote the deregulation bill that allowed banks to take huge risks with all of our future.
Now, Phil Graham is the head of McCain's economic policy.He is also McCain's choice for the next secretary of the treasury.
No one in this country can afford for that to happen. The last time Bush met with his economic advisors was in March. He didnt realize that anything was wrong. Phil Graham had the guts to say that we are in a mental recession after he helped create the worst economy meltdown in our lifetime. Check out this link to the truth http://my.barackobama.com/keatingvideo
It will take the best and brightest minds in the world to get us out of this nightmare. As bad as Bush has done, McCain would be
even more destructive because things are in much worse shape. The next president will not inherit a surplus like Bush did but a crashing economy and a 11,600,000,000,000 (trillion) dollars deficit. Most of it Bush created and it will take decades to pay it back.
If you do what you have always done then you will get what you have always got.
When it comes to policy Bush and McCain are the same 90 percent of the time.
So why are the polls even close then ?
Mccains team just said they no longer want to talk about the economy.Instead they would like to spend time talking about obama
which means running the biggest smear campaign in history.
They think they can just tell you lies and you wont be smart enough to see through it
Let's teach him we are smarter than that .

Just a reply to Randy since he does not check independent resources & takes political ads as gospel. Obama is not Muslim & has been a practicing Christian all of his life. Because someone has a middle name makes them a Muslim & seems like you are implying a terrorist? McCain came out & said he was not an Arab & a good man. I???m surprised that when someone joins on a board of education & meets another as an Education Professor at the University of Chicago that he must assume that since the professor is older he committed domestic terrorist attacks 40 years ago.
Maybe you should check out Palin???s anit-American association? Her husband was a member of a group that states ???American is in moral & economic decline that is why Alaska should succeed from America???. He was a member until 2002 & she gave a speech for them in 3/08. She has a lot closer connections to people who do not want to be part of America.

Obama doesn't lie, he just doesn't tell the whole truth! Everything he says can be followed by and.... He is a liberal Democrat and New Party member. He is Christian and Muslim, he is a friend of Ayers and Rev. Wright. He is a well-educated man and smart enough to leave out the details.

McCain/Palin have taken the prize for lying the most in Election history. No wonder they are so desperate to try to attach the title to Obama. And even though they have been tagged time and again by the news media and organizations like FactCheck, they keep repeating their lies, which is mind-boggling and disgusting.

McCain-Palin Ad: "Ambition"

???Announcer: Obama's blind ambition. When convenient, he worked with terrorist Bill Ayers. When discovered, he lied.

Obama. Blind ambition. Bad judgment.Congressional liberals fought for risky sub-prime loans.
Congressional liberals fought against more regulation. Then, the housing market collapsed costing you billions.

In crisis, we need leadership, not bad judgment.???

All one needs to do is replace ???Obama??? with ???McCain??? and you have the truth. The words ???blind ambition,??? ???lied,??? and ???bad judgment??? are how I describe McCain. Instead of doing something original or meaningful, McCain has done nothing but steal Obama???s positions or project himself on Obama. McCain???s plan to buy more bad mortgages at face value and refinance these at current prices is leadership and good judgment? With a ???friend??? like that (my friends) who needs enemies.

BTW, one might note that FactCheck was established in 2003. Hmm, could it be because of Bush/Cheney lies to invade Iraq that created this need? Thank goodness we have organizations like this now, though too bad conservatives are still unaware of these last bastions of reason.

i honestly feel bad for the people supporting mccain/palin. your campaign has no basis anymore, especially since mccain even said that obama is a decent guy and isn't a terrorist. our country is being flushed down the toilet by the gop and all you guys want to do is bitch about the toilet paper. i think you republicans are telling lies and repeating the ones you hear so often you ACTUALLY believe them. let me know that delusional behavior is working out for you on november 5th.

You have to be kidding. Obama knew Ayers. Ayers hosted a campaign meeting with Obama present in his home. He was a neighbor. There were other connects, too. So, did Obama turn a blind eye/deaf ear in order to use Ayers, or was it poor judgment? A politician knows ANY connections are going to become an issue when running for office. Remember Rev. Wright, Obama's pastor of 20 years. He didn't know Wright's philosophy, either.

Oh, come on, if Ayers held a campaign meeting in his home for Obama who was present, they knew each other better than you are trying to indicate. There were other ties, too. Obama had to know Ayers background, so either he USED Ayers to get support, or he was VERY stupid in his judgment. ANY past associations, however limited were bound to come to light. Not smart for a politiciain my opinion! Hey, this isn't the only questionable association - Rev. Wright5. Looks to me like Obama used whomever would promote him; until he no longer needed them.

There is nothing misleading about McCain's statement. Ayers is not just someone who lives in his neighborhood, they have worked together for years on two different boards both of which fund extremely QUESTIONABLE organizations, including Wright's RACIST Church, ACORN who as we are finding out is not just notorios for voter fraud, registering thousands of dead people , cats and NFL football players in cities where they don't reside. ACORN is something that both Ayers and Obama have in common. ACORN embodies everything that Obama calims he is against. NEWSweek you are so in the tank for Obama, just like all the main stream media, you are all COVERING UP for him. Watergate was nothing compared to the way the media covers up for this man. He has dozens of extremely radical associations, belongs to questionable organizations, and the media covers it all up. We the people are entitled to know who this man is, he needs to answer questions about all of these people and organizations and he needs to be pressed on his answers like McCain and Palin are , instead of just being allowed to do fluff interviews. The American people are getting very angry and the main reason is because of the COVER UPS on behalf of "The One"

This link of a CSPAN video may help set the context, as these hearings were at the time of McCains attempt at S.190.

"Shocking Video Unearthed Democrats in their own words Covering up the Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac Scam that caused our Economic Crisis"

Well this is what his race-baiting ads are doing...

There are hundreds of blogs reporting experiences of McCain supporters in coffee shops expressing hate towards Obama or wishing him dead. Fights & arguments breaking out and lawns & cars with Obama stickers being vandalized.

Volunteers are wondering if they should go into heavy Republican areas to to canvas? This rise started when the McCain folks started shouting terrorist, kill him, bomb, traitor, not a patriot! Some of these people don't really care about voting or McCain, they are simply joining in the love-hate festival the McCain Rally supporters began. Some Democrats are talking about taking some of their stickers/magnets off the cars for fear for vandalism, others are thinking of not wearing t-shirts anymore.

Tonight I was on youtube and I selected this video. It happen to be on the lady who McCain said "NO" on Obama being an Arab. So I wrote a response. This guy wrote back and when I responded I decided to look at his comments. To my surprise I've never read such hateful words. It was all over the place. I mean this the kind of hate you have to watch out for. This guy is on a death wish.

He defends KKK & hates Blacks and Jews. Here are some comments I copied:

starcatcher888 (1 hour ago)

If Obama is wacked it will be a good thing for humanity! Then I hope there is a race war in the USA and we clean the out the Trash! NOT A PANTY RAID RACE WAR BUT ABOUT 30 MILLION DEAD AND CLEAN UP THE GARBAGE AND THE RATS WE HAVE LET BREED IN OUR COUNTRY! AND CLEAN OUT EVER PRISION! Start from scratch

starcatcher888

Name one Atheist Country in the world ever.
When I see Atheists I see dead bodies and mass Murder only second to Muslims and Islam.
Where they create famine, misery and ancarchy and then kill the farmers to fix the famine to continue with the misery and the anarchy to sell their brand of salvation to the hopeless!

Starcatcher888 to me:

Not in the USA it is not! It maybe in EUnuch land or the Euro-trash zone and in Canada but not in the USA: Infact with what I know about Islam I would never convict anyone for killing ANY self confessed Muslim on sight! And soon More Americans will know what Muslims are and Islam is: We will have Bounties on them! No Muslim is tollerable globally! Islam merits total extermination! Just like the Aztecs with human sacrafice and canibalism!

Check him out on Youtube http://www.youtube.com/... Select all comments by him and see how sick he is. He's linking IN HIS MIND Obama to Muslims thanks to Cindy & John McCain, and Sarah Palin.

I told him I was going to report him and have him flagged under the patriot act. I wonder if the Bush people would really use the patriot act for the right thing besides listening in on conversations with our military personnel and their spouses?

Mimis, I agree, I think the Ayres bit is off base. Although it is relevant the culture Obama steeped himself in during his early political years.

Add to your list, John Glenn, of the Keating 5, champaining for Obama. So what.
