Obama's Citizenship: THE CASE OF DAVID vs
GOLIATH - A BIBLICAL STORY?
NO, IT'S WASHINGTON STATE 2008 !
On October 10th Steve Marquis of Fall City, WA launched a
lawsuit to protest the candidacy of Barack Obama, who has
refused to present evidence of his eligibility to run for the
U.S. Presidency. Constitutional eligibility requires a President
to be a "natural born" American citizen. Questions abound in the
media (mostly non-mainstream media) concerning Senator Obama's
questionable birth certificate as presented on his website. The
questions have led to several lawsuits (PA, HI, WA) requesting
government officials (the Goliaths of this story) to force
proper eligibility credentials to be shown in Court
thatAmerica's Constitutional requirement has been fulfilled.

Barack Obama is an immensely talented man whose
talents have been largely devoted to crafting, and
chronicling, his own life. Not things. Not ideas. Not
institutions. But himself.
Nothing wrong or even terribly odd about that, except
that he is laying claim to the job of crafting
the coming history of the United States. A leap of such
audacity is odd. The air of unease at the
Democratic convention this week was not just a
result of the Clinton psychodrama. The deeper anxiety
was that the party was nominating a man of many gifts
but precious few accomplishments -- bearing even fewer
witnesses.

Who are Obama's Chief Economic
Advisors? Can the men who were instrumental
in bringing down Wall Street be trusted to build a new Wall Street?
FRANKLIN
RAINES: Raines works for the Obama Campaign as
Chief Economic Advisor
TIM
HOWARD: Howard is also a Chief Economic Advisor to
Obama
JIM
JOHNSON: Johnson was hired as a Senior Obama
Finance Advisor and was selected to run Obama's Vice Presidential
Search Committee
Franklin Raines left with a
"golden parachute valued at $240 Million
Franklin Raines was a Chairman and Chief Executive Officer at Fannie
Mae. Raines was forced to retire from his position with Fannie Mae
when auditing discovered severe irregulaties in Fannie Mae's
accounting activities. At the time of his departure (Wednesday,
Dec.22, 2004) The Wall Street Journal noted, " Raines, who long
defended the company's accounting despite mounting evidence that it
wasn't proper, issued a statement late Tuesday (Dec. 21, 2004)
conceding that "mistakes were made" and saying he would assume
responsibility as he had earlier promised. News reports indicate the
company was under growing pressure from regulators to shake up its
management in the wake of findings that the company's books ran
afoul of generally accepted accounting principles for four years."
Fannie Mae had to reduce its surplus by $9 billion.
Raines left with a "golden parachute valued at $240 Million. The
government filed suit against Raines when the depth of the
accounting scandal became clear. See: http://housingdoom.com/2006/12/18/fannie-charges/
The government noted, "The 101 charges reveal how the individuals
improperly manipulated earnings to maximize their bonuses, while
knowingly neglecting accounting systems and internal controls,
misapplying over twenty accounting principles and misleading the
regulator and the public. The notice explains how they submitted six
years of misleading and inaccurate accounting statements and
inaccurate capital reports that enabled them to grow Fannie Mae in
an unsafe and unsound manner." These charges were made in 2006. The
Court ordered Raines to return $50 million dollars he received in
bonuses based on the miss-stated Fannie Mae profits.
Tim Howard. Howard's Golden
Parachute was estimated at $20 Million!
Tim Howard was the Chief Financial Officer of Fannie Mae. Howard
"was a strong internal proponent of using accounting strategies that
would ensure a "stable pattern of earnings" at Fannie. In everyday
English - he was cooking the books. The government investigation
determined that, "Chief Financial Officer, Tim Howard, failed to
provide adequate oversight to key control and reporting functions
within Fannie Mae,"
On June 16, 2006, Rep. Richard Baker, R-La., asked the Justice
Department to investigate his allegations that two former Fannie Mae
executives lied to Congress in October 2004 when they denied
manipulating the mortgage-finance giant's income statement to
achieve management pay bonuses. Investigations by federal regulators
and the company's board of directors since concluded that management
did manipulate 1998 earnings to trigger bonuses. Raines and Howard
left Fannie Mae under pressure in December 2004. Raines's departure
was structured as an early retirement. Howard resigned.
Jim Johnson. Johnson's Golden
Parachute was estimated at $28 Million.
Jim Johnson is a former executive at Lehman Brothers who was later
forced from his position as Fannie Mae CEO. A look at the Office of
Federal Housing Enterprise Oversight's May 2006 report on
mismanagement and corruption inside Fannie Mae, and you'll see some
interesting things about Johnson.
Investigators found that Fannie Mae had hidden a substantial amount
of Johnson's 1998 compensation from the public, reporting that it
was between $6 million and $7 million when it fact it was $21
million. Johnson is currently under investigation for taking illegal
loans from Countrywide while serving as CEO of Fannie Mae.
The
upcoming election will determine the course of our nation as never
before. Your vote, each and every one, is essential in determining
whether we will continue on, proudly in the footsteps of our
founders and forefathers as a Democracy based on individual freedoms
and free enterprise or whether we will change our course forever by
allowing the seal of endorsement to be placed on socialism as a way
of life and become a nation steeped in socialist values. The
choice is clear: Democracy or Socialism!
As members of society we are
defined by the company we keep, our associations and our
moral environment. I, as an individual am an avid “Support our Troops”
advocate. Not only do I support the troops. I support their goals
and their mission and I applaud their accomplishments. Most, but
not all, of my friends are staunch Republicans and Conservatives
with strong religious and moral convictions. Collectively we aspire
to a smaller government, a balanced budget and less taxes, reverence
for our flag, and country, as well as an assumption of personal
accountability and responsibility. We are motivated by a high sense
of patriotism and individual freedoms based on tradition. These are
highly held values which affect my goals. They influence my
activities and define and who I am. To suppose otherwise would be
an oxymoron.
Association by definition is
an organized body of people who have an interest, an activity, or a
purpose in common.
Associations are chosen
relationships, entered into for reasons of individual motivation or
mutual advantage with a self imposed lifespan. They are not part of
a gene pool with unlimited obligation. Church and religion are
products of individual spiritual motivation, conviction and
ideals. The choice of church and pastor is a voluntary action, and
of a personal nature in keeping with those ideals and personal
criteria. The ongoing commitment, be it an personal association, a
relationship or church and religion is a marriage and acceptance of
those ideals.
To say, believe, or accept
the premise that Barak Obama’s long term association and activities
have no influence on his outlook, that they do not define him as a
individual, that they offer no insight to his character and
judgment, is not only blind ignorance, it is totally asinine.
Barak Obama is a political
opportunist with a 20 year history of commitment and involvement in
relationships and associations diametrically opposed to the
fundamentals of our democracy. His lack of character and moral
fiber is defined by the fact that he has, for reasons of political
expediency, cast them aside like a worn out suit.
To place the
faith of a nation not withstanding the Presidency in the hands of
such an individual is unconscionable. It is with this belief and
resolve that I dedicate this page and the information contained
herein to the defeat of Barak Hussein Obama in the 2008 election

A close look at Barack Obama's career reveals it has been even
more mediocre than generally recognized.
Before being elected to the Illinois state Senate, Obama worked
as a community organizer and a lawyer in Chicago.
In his memoir, Obama says being a community organizer taught him
how to motivate the powerless and work the government to help them.
His chief example is an effort to remove asbestos from Altgeld
Gardens, an all-black public housing project on Chicago’s South
Side.
But those who were involved in the effort say Obama played a
minor role in working the problem and never accomplished his goal. A
pre-existing group at Altgeld Gardens and a local newspaper, the
Chicago Reporter, were working on the problem before Obama came on
the scene, yet Obama does not mention them in his book, “Dreams From
My Father: A Story of Race and Inheritance.”

Just how much Senate experience does
Barack Obama have in terms of actual work days? Not much.
From the time Barack Obama was sworn
in as a United State Senator, to the time he announced he was
forming a Presidential exploratory committee, he logged 143 days
of experience in the
senate. That's how many days the
Senate was actually in session and working.
After 143 days of work experience,
Obama believed he was ready to be Commander In Chief, Leader of
the Free World, and fill the shoes of Abraham Lincoln, FDR, JFK
and Ronald Reagan.
143 days -- I keep leftovers in my
refrigerator longer than that.
In contrast, John McCain's 26 years
in Congress, 22 years of military service including 1,966 days
in captivity as a POW in Hanoi now seem more impressive than
ever. At 71, John McCain may just be hitting his stride
Questions
for Obama' by George F. Will
May 5, 2008 issue of Newsweek
'Senator, concerning the criteria by which you will nominate
judges, you said: 'We need somebody who's got the heart, the
empathy, to recognize what it's like to be a young teenage mom.
The empathy to understand what it's like to be poor, or
African-American, or gay, or disabled, or old.' Such
sensitivities might serve an admirable legislator, but what have
they to do with judging? Should a judge side with whichever
party in a controversy stirs his or her empathy? Is such
personalization of the judicial function inimical to the rule of
law?
Voting against the confirmation of Chief Justice John Roberts,
you said: Deciding 'truly difficult cases' should involve 'one's
deepest values, one's core concerns, one's broader perspectives
on how the world works, and the depth and breadth of one's
empathy.' Is that not essentially how Chief Justice Roger Taney
decided the Dred Scott case? Should other factors-say, the
language of the constitutional or statutory provision at
issue-matter?

As part of a month-long aircraft makeover, a painted American flag
was removed from the tail of Sen. Barack Obama's official campaign
airplane and was replaced with the presidential candidate's
trademark "O" symbol.
The refurbished 757 was unveiled to members of the news media today,
41 of whom boarded the craft and took off to meet Obama in Amman,
Jordan, where the presidential candidate will stop as part of a
Middle Eastern and European tour.
Obama traveled to the Mideast earlier this week on board a separate
airplane.
Fox News blogger Bonny Kapp, traveling on Obama's new airplane,
reported:
"The North American jet that flew Obama and his traveling crew
around for much of the primary season was refurbished with new seats
and power for each passenger a must on the campaign trail. And the
plane that once had an American flag on its tail now sports the
Obama 'O.'"

Health Rx: Cover Illegals
By Dick Morris
July 22, 2008
Democrats' single most important domestic proposal - universal
health insurance - may blow up in Barack Obama's face when voters
are exposed to the deadly details.
Obama has said, proudly and often, "I am going to give health
insurance to 47 million Americans who are now without coverage." But
are they "Americans?"
That 47 million statistic includes illegal immigrants - who
virtually all lack insurance. In fact, about one in four of those
lacking insurance is here illegally. And they are, by far, the group
most in need of health insurance.

The candidate endorsed
subsidies for private entrepreneurs to build
low-income units. But, while he garnered support
from developers, many projects in his former
district have fallen into disrepair.
The squat brick buildings of Grove
Parc Plaza, in a dense neighborhood
that Barack Obama represented for
eight years as a state senator, hold
504 apartments subsidized by the
federal government for people who
can't afford to live anywhere else.
But it's not safe to live here.
About 99 of the units are vacant,
many rendered uninhabitable by
unfixed problems, such as collapsed
roofs and fire damage. Mice scamper
through the halls. Battered
mailboxes hang open. Sewage backs up
into kitchen sinks. In 2006, federal

Ground for Obama's Housing Policy
'As I've said about the flag pin, I don't want to be perceived as
taking sides ,' Obama said. 'There are a lot of people in the world
to whom the American flag is a symbol of oppression. And the anthem
itself conveys a war-like message. You know, the bombs bursting in
air and all. It should be swapped for something less parochial and
less bellicose'
Barak Obama has recently undertaken the use of a
'redesigned" version of the Presidential Seal to adorn the podium
when he speaks.
The
manipulation and defacement of the honored presidential seal in such
a manner, in my humble opinion, is an contemptuous act as offensive
as the burning of our flag or disrespect for the national anthem.
On one side of the spectrum you have patriotism and tradition and on
the other you have utter contempt and disrespect.
There is no middle ground.

WHAT IT IS WORTH: Ken Blackwell - Columnist for the New York Sun
It's an amazing time to be alive in
America. We're in a year of firsts in this presidential election:
the first viable woman candidate; the first viable African-American
candidate; and, a candidate who is the first front-running freedom
fighter over 70. The next president of America will be a first.
We won't truly be in an election of firsts, however, until we judge
every candidate by where they stand. We won't arrive where we
should be until we no longer talk about skin color or gender. Now
that Barack Obama steps to the front of the Democratic field, we
need to stop talking about his race, and start talking about his
policies and his politics.
The reality is this: Though the Democrats will not have a nominee
until August, unless Hillary Clinton drops out, Mr. Obama is now the
frontrunner, and its time America takes a closer and deeper look at
him. Some pundits are calling him the next John F. Kennedy. He's
not. He's the next George McGovern. And it's time people learned
the facts.
Because the truth is that Mr. Obama is the single most liberal
senator in the entire U.S. Senate. He is more liberal than Ted
Kennedy, Bernie Sanders, or Mrs. Clinton. Never in my life have I
seen a presidential frontrunner whose rhetoric is so far removed
from his record. Walter Mondale promised to raise our taxes, and he
lost. George McGovern promised military weakness, and he lost.
Michael Dukakis promised a liberal domestic agenda, and he lost.
Yet Mr. Obama is promising all those
things, and he's not behind in the polls. Why? Because the press
has dealt with him as if he were in a beauty pageant.. Mr. Obama
talks about getting past party, getting past red and blue, to
lead the United States of America. But let's look at the more
defined strokes of who he is underneath this superficial
"beauty."
Start with national security, since the
president's most important duties are as commander-in-chief. Over
the summer, Mr. Obama talked about invading Pakistan, a nation
armed with nuclear weapons; meeting without preconditions with
Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, who vows to destroy Israel and create another
Holocaust; and Kim Jong II, who is murdering and starving his
people, but emphasized that the nuclear option was off the table
against terrorists - something no president has ever taken off the
table since we created nuclear weapons in the 1940s. Even Democrats
who have worked in national security condemned all of those
remarks. Mr. Obama is a foreign-policy novice who would put our
national security at risk.
Next, consider economic policy. For all its faults, our health care
system is the strongest in the world. And free trade agreements,
created by Bill Clinton as well as President Bush, have made more
goods more affordable so that even people of modest means can live
a life that no one imagined a generation ago. Yet Mr. Obama
promises to raise taxes on "the rich." How to fix Social Security?
Raise taxes. How to fix Medicare? Raise taxes. Prescription drugs?
Raise taxes. Free college? Raise taxes. Socialize medicine? Raise
taxes. His solution to everything is to have government take it
over. Big Brother on steroids, funded by your paycheck.
Finally, look at the social issues. Mr. Obama had the audacity to
open a stadium rally by saying, "All praise and glory to God!" but
says that Christian leaders speaking for life and marriage have
"hijacked" - hijacked - Christianity. He is pro-partial birth
abortion, and promises to appoint Supreme Court justices who will
rule any restriction on it unconstitutional. He espouses the
abortion views of Margaret Sanger, one of the early advocates of
racial cleansing. His spiritual leaders endorse homosexual
marriage, and he is moving in that direction. In Illinois, he
refused to vote against a statewide ban - ban - on all handguns in
the state. These are radical left, Hollywood, and San Francisco
values, not Middle America values.
The real Mr. Obama is an easy target for the general election. Mrs.
Clinton is a far tougher opponent. But Mr. Obama could win if people
don't start looking behind his veneer and flowery speeches. His
vision of "bringing America together" means saying that those who
disagree with his agenda for America are hijackers or warmongers.
Uniting the country means adopting his liberal agenda and
abandoning any conflicting beliefs.
But right now everyone is talking about how eloquent of a speaker
he is and - yes - they're talking about his race. Those should never
be the factors on which we base our choice for president. Mr.
Obama's radical agenda sets him far outside the American
mainstream, to the left of Mrs. Clinton.
It's time to talk about the real Barack Obama. In an election of
firsts, let's first make sure we elect the person who is qualified
to be our president in a nuclear age during a global civilizational
war.
