    The GOP's biggest fear is not that Obama is a black radical muslim socialist, but that he will in fact be a great President. That would mean the next Republican President to feel the sunshine on his face in the Rose Garden would be a LONG LONG way off!

    So, they bring up all the same old crap out of the basement, without even bothering to check out the truth. Here are the answers to all the Obama smears using various trusted non-partisan sources. Investigate for yourselves before believing anyones version of the facts.

      In reality, he would make the worst President in History! Worse than Jimmy Carter, and, brace yourself, worse than George Bush!

    The Wall Street crisis was planned the night of Obama's meeting at Bill Ayres home to put Obama in The White House. Together they put a beautiful plan into place.

    This Strategy was first elucidated in the 1966 issue of 'The Nation' Magazine by a pair of radical Socialist Columbia University professors, Richard Andrew Cloward and Frances Fox Piven.

    David Horowitz summarizes it as:

    "The strategy of forcing political change through an orchestrated crisis. The "Cloward-Piven Strategy" seeks to hasten the fall of Capitalism by overloading the Government bureaucracy with a flood of impossible demands, thus pushing society into crisis and economic collapse.
    unquote

    Obama begin with ACORN by funneling millions into their organization. He then trained ACORN to stage protests in banks to force them to issue risky loans or they would be threatened to face racial charges. ACORN was trained to intimidate financial institutions into giving ???Ninja??? loans to people with NO assets, NO job and NO income, who couldn???t afford these loans.

    That caused the housing bubble two years ago it was by ACORN's actions they were able to destroy our credit system.

    As this played out, D-Barney Frank and D-Chris Dodd were able to cover up the millions of improvident loans to these bad risky house buyers. And Barney Frank and his chums successfully were able to block all of President Bush's attempts to put a rein on this problem.

    So Fannie & Freddie was forced to purchase all these failed subprime mortgages.

    Then both Frank and Dodd denied that there were any problems, and refused the Bush Admin. requests to set up a regulatory agency to watch over Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, and they were still pushing for these agencies to go even further in promoting sub-prime mortgage loans almost up to the 'minute they failed'.

    Democrats then blamed Bush saying it happened on his watch knowing it would hurt the Republican Party in the election setting it up that Barack Obama could use this to his advantage.

    Karl Marx once compared a Revolutionary struggle with the work of the mole, who sometimes burrows so far beneath the ground that he leaves no trace of his movement on the surface.

    Barack Obama is that Marxist mole !

    How to bring down a democracy: the steps toward totalitarian rule, in the order followed by Hitler and the Nazi Party; SEE IF THEY SOUND FAMILIAR.

    1. Improvise an attack (or take advantage of an attack) on the country
    2. Declare the country under attack by an enemy; real or improvised
    3. Force legislation that limits civil liberties and gathers broad powers unto government
    4. Brand dissenters and peacemakers as unpatriotic and browbeat them into submission
    5. Keep the fear factor high to make the public easier to manage
    6. Institute massive propaganda campaigns using state-controlled no-longer-free media and fear of government retribution
    7. Law enforcement and government personnel and ordinary citizens are used to spy on, control and break dissent.
    8. Institute the equivalent of a national homeland security department, overseen by one person with unlimited powers
    9. Confiscate all firearms from the citizenry
    10. Institute the mass murder and imprisonment of any who resist the new ideology.
    11. Launch pre-emptive strikes into other countries in an attempt to spread the new ideology

    Sound familiar? It should, its not only the direct path of Hitlers rise to power, but also parallels the events starting with and following 9/11. President Bush was very familiar with the game plan, as his Grandfather and his Grandfathers father-in-law were supporters of Hitler and Nazism, both before and after the war. (See George Herbert Walker and Prescott Bush and the Union Banking Corporation)

    Of course, the Bush Administration has skipped a couple of the items on the list, but theyll get to them if their party is allowed to remain in power; it will be the only way for them to retain control over the citizenry.

    THE BEST REASON TO VOTE FOR BARACK OBAMA THIS ELECTION YEAR

    Jesus, this is obnoxious. Being a shallow fashion critic says a lot more about the critic than it does about his targets.

    I cannot wait until the liberal news sources lose their freedom of speech, once Obama is elected. and the social party takes over. In the words of Joe Biden Mark my words.

      you're an idiot. Fear mongers/ignorant fools like you are going to be the demise of this country.

  • Posted By: funkdome @ 10/30/2008 7:33:07 PM

    Wow! All of the Dems are stylish and none of the Republicans are.

    I guess Gunn must have like Cindy McCain's style. She is omitted from this latest bit of liberal propaganda.

  • Posted By: yellowlab @ 10/30/2008 5:55:23 PM

    Why on earth are you railing about Sarah Palins expenses--- Barack Obama has probably spent over a billion dollars. The real question is where in the world did he get this much money.. And let us not blabber about allk the little people donations. Is Newsweek for real?--- By the way I did ntice the pages between the covers are becoming less and less. Why is that?

  • Posted By: littlechica911 @ 10/30/2008 5:53:42 PM

    Tim, I get it. After a protracted 18mo campaign, no sensible person believes we're voting for best dressed. This is fun. A few thoughts though. 1) I agree with most of your observations 2)I usually like the Desperate White House wife thing Mrs. McCain has going. It's like she's telling you, "I take myself too seriously and money is a great source of comfort to me." At least its honest. 2)MOST DAYS Michelle Obama gets it right but others...geez. She's going to need a stylist to help perfect her everywoman style. But the day she wore the floral dress with the flats...OMG that outfit was as inappropriate as well, a former weather girl turned mayor turned governor of Alaska running for VP!

    I agree with ktmcquade... lighten up Gunn... clothes do not make the person.
