- inactive, on 10/07/2008, -3/+25Jeremiah Wright, Father Michael Pfleger, William Ayers, and Antoin Rezko are not just people who happened to be at the same place at the same time as Barack Obama. They are people with whom he chose to ally himself for years, and with some of whom some serious money changed hands.I thought this pretty much said it all. When will his puppies wake up?
- tkstock, on 10/07/2008, -3/+24Good article. It's all too easy for someone to pass off past "associations" with "it's just guilt by association" when in fact these are the people he chose to ally himself with to accomplish his goals!
- covertress, on 10/07/2008, -1/+20‘Guilt by association’? No. This is guilt by participation.
- craigly, on 10/07/2008, -2/+18Yessir. These are not just associations, but alliances the Obamanation has formed. It's interesting to ponder what will happen when O loses in November.
- inactive, on 10/07/2008, -0/+14From Sowell's piece:
"Some gave political support, and some gave financial support, to Obama’s election campaigns, and Obama in turn contributed either his own money or the taxpayers’ money to some of them. That is a familiar political alliance — but an alliance is not just an “association” from being at the same place at the same time.
Obama could have allied himself with all sorts of other people. But, time and again, he allied himself with people who openly expressed their hatred of America. No amount of flags on his campaign platforms this election year can change that."
This is exactly right, and there is no logical way for Obama to deny it. - FullClip, on 10/07/2008, -1/+11Ladies and Gentlemen.. .Here is the one peace of advice I will give you that will make you wealthy. If Obambi is elected (god forbid) buy as much stock in Vaseline as possible. Because we are all going to get ass slammed for 4 years....
- tkstock, on 10/07/2008, -3/+11“I’ve been fighting alongside ACORN on issues you care about my entire career. Even before I was an elected official, when I ran Project Vote voter registration drive in Illinois, ACORN was smack dab in the middle of it, and we appreciate your work.” — Barack Obama, Speech to ACORN, November 2007
So, he's been fighting alongside the radical group ACORN his entire career, and this isn't big news? - inactive, on 10/07/2008, -0/+8http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S8QcpdUtxNQ

- suzycarpenter, on 10/07/2008, -0/+6Let's see the fighter pilot.
- deathsythe, on 10/07/2008, -1/+7Thats fine btschul - I think we will all be so happy that we dodged the bullet on this one that we can plug our ears for a bit.
- craigly, on 10/07/2008, -0/+4Shame on Obambi, trying to pull the wool over our eyes. The only people he's foolin are the ones who choose not to think for themselves.
- inactive, on 10/07/2008, -1/+5McCain's simply got to rip the dem's lungs out !!!
Obama, heir to the Jackson fortune of business & Chicago politics ! - inactive, on 10/08/2008, -0/+3I don't know if you're kidding. Being facetious. Or pretending to be naive.
Everybody knows that ACORN workers have been indicted for voter fraud in several states. Everyone knows that these workers have indicated they were taught/encouraged to falsify voter applications.
Most everybody has seen television interviews with ACORN workers so dumb they admit they are only signing up people that will vote for Obama.
Everyone who pays attention knows that, based on the regulations from the CRA, ACORN organizers pressured banks to make loans regardless of the qualifications of the minorities receiving the loans.
If you haven't been paying attention, I suggest you learn to use Google. - tkstock, on 10/07/2008, -0/+3Oh, so just turn your head the other way. It doesn't matter that he allies with terrorists, people who hate our government, people who radicalize our children. It's not an issue. Right. You just keep those fingers firmly stuck in your ears, hold your nose, and vote for him then.
I think that Osama bin Laden is probably a good inspirational leader to his followers - should Obama pal up with him to inspire Obama's followers or to radicalize our children?
Those of use who choose to be informed about the issues and judge people's character not only by what they do, but by whom they choose to be around. - inactive, on 10/07/2008, -0/+3Don't forget a big scooper,
you'll need lots to ease the pain ! - craigly, on 10/07/2008, -1/+3This is only for Rev. Wright. He does not exonerate Obama on any other association and I fully expect the great Senator John McCain to say something about it tonight.
- inactive, on 10/08/2008, -2/+4I hope McAmnesty has finally given up being civil to this worthless empty suit - I want to see him rip its throat out and stomp the quivering remains into the cracks between the boards. Figuratively, of course . . . . This "community organizer" is a thoroughly despicable bit of vile scum and a walking insult to this nation - it isn't qualified to mop the White House kitchen, much less follow in the steps of REAL men like JFK, Reagan, Teddy Roosevelt and Washington.
- inactive, on 10/07/2008, -1/+2Least he didn't get into college by affirmative action.
- inactive, on 10/07/2008, -3/+4Are you kidding?
They pressured and extorted banks to give loans to poor people that couldn't pay for them.
They encourage the writing of phony voter registrations. They run registration drives that steer people to Obama. They sign up homeless to vote for Obama... and all this on public money.
Which means I am helping to pay for it! - tkstock, on 10/08/2008, -0/+1"Until you show me where Obama KNEW he was a terrorist and decided to be "allied" with him anyway its a non issue."
Ok, so Obama didn't know Bill Ayres was a terrorist. Obama didn't know Bernadine Dohrn was a terrorist. Obama didn't know Rev Wright was a hater of the US. Obama didn't know that ACORN is a radical group that commits voter fraud and radicalizes children. Obama didn't know Tony Rezko was a sleazy criminal. Obama didn't know that Rashid Khalidi is an Israeli antagonist. Obama didn't know that Saul Alinsky was a radical socialist / communist.
Obama sure is a naive son of gun with horribly bad judgment of people, and you want him to run the country? - govsucks, on 10/08/2008, -0/+1@ Closed Caption

Several municipal clerks across the state are reporting fraudulent and duplicate voter registration applications, most of them from a nationwide community activist group working to help low- and moderate-income families.The majority of the problem applications are coming from the group ACORN, Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now ...
Florida

A Florida state attorney is investigating thousands of potentially fraudulent voter registrations associated with the leading organizer of Florida's Amendment 5 ballot initiative. But this is just the tip of an iceberg of illegalities, fraud and contradictions connected to the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now (ACORN) ... Former ACORN Miami-Dade field director Mac Stuart has declared an intent to sue ACORN and has made charges of rampant voter fraud operations. Stuart was employed and specifically tasked by ACORN to generate 103,000 new voter registrations from Dade County. He reports that ACORN threw out Republican registrations while paying for Democratic ones. Stuart also charges that ACORN targeted ex-cons and that he personally set up registration tables outside the Miami police department and Dade County jail.
WHY, I can't think of a better place to find democrat voters than outside the county jail.
New Mexico
Sept. 18, 2008, Judicial Watch Blog
This week officials in New Mexico's most populous county (Bernalillo) notified federal authorities that more than 1,000 fraudulent voter registration cards were submitted to the clerk's office. ACORN, which pays workers for each registration, is the prime suspect since it has handled thousands of new voter registrations in New Mexico since January. County workers subsequently discovered that at least 1,100 new registrations list Social Security numbers for people already in the county's database of registered voters, names of registered voters with different birth dates and addresses that don't exist.

Criminal investigations could be launched against at least six voter registration workers who tried to add dead, imprisoned or imaginary people to the voter rolls, according to the Milwaukee Election Commission and the organization that employed them. "One woman called us to complain because her husband has been dead for 10 years and a voter registration was submitted," Edman said. In about 12 cases, deputy registrars paid by ACORN were "making people up or registering people that were still in prison," said Carolyn Castore, ACORN's state political director. And in other cases, workers used the same address for numerous voters or used driver's license numbers that did not fit the voters' birth dates, Edman said. But most of the fraud involved submitting duplicate cards for voters who were already registered, and forging the voters' signatures, Castore said.

A national organization that conducts voter registration drives for low-income people has curtailed its push in Cuyahoga County after the Board of Elections accused its workers of submitting fraudulent registration cards. Board employees said ACORN workers often handed in the same name on a number of voter registration cards, but showing that person living at different addresses. Other times, cards had the same name listed, but a different date of birth. Still another sign of possible fraud showed a number of people living at an address that turned out to be a restaurant. ACORN has submitted about 75,000 voter registration cards to the Cuyahoga board this year.
Pennsylvania
Sept. 18, 2008, The Bulletin: Philadelphia's Family Newspaper
A community organization, with longstanding ties to Barack Obama, has, according to numerous reports, repeatedly run afoul of voter registration laws both locally and nationally. Philadelphia election officials recently accused ACORN, of filing multiple fraudulent voter registrations during the 2008 Pennsylvania primary. The case has been referred to the U.S. Attorney's office, according to Philadelphia Deputy Election Commissioner Fred Voight. Delaware County election officials have made similar allegations against the group, and criminal indictments are pending. This past July 24, Dauphin County detectives offered a $2,000 reward for information about the whereabouts of Luis R. Torres-Serrano, an ACORN worker, who was accused of submitting more than 100 fraudulent voter registrations.

ACORN, which stands for the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now, claims to have collected 60,000 new voter registrations in Clark County since February ... Lomax said while he supports the goal of getting more people registered to vote, he sees rampant fraud in the 2,000 to 3,000 registrations ACORN turns in every week.
Who was it that is trying to steal the election again!? Why its the same collectivists that steal our tax money for their social engineering. Ah, once a thief and liar, always a thief and liar!
You can now shut the ***** up closedcaption - ClosedCaption, on 10/08/2008, -0/+1Good job Govsucks except the last statement. See unlike you I will say without question that those responsible should be held responsible. If this came from the top, chop off the head and the body will die. My morals dont change and so far, the fraud is clear but the motive isnt. You're statement of "who was trying to steal elections again" is weirdly sophmoric. Suggesting that only one side can steal elections at a time. The republicanss steal elections or did a Democrat win both elections and we're all dreaming? Wait, a Dem did win in 2000...now I'm confused.
- ClosedCaption, on 10/07/2008, -2/+3Jesus on a hotplate! What in the world is radical about the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now?
Now you guys are just getting silly adding "radical" in front of everyone you dont like loods desperate after a while - ClosedCaption, on 10/07/2008, -3/+3Exactly, he chose to ally himself with these ppl but that doesnt mean he agrees or believes in everything those ppl do, done, say or said. So...it is a game of guilt by association
- govsucks, on 10/08/2008, -1/+1Thomas Sowell has more brains in his little finger than Obama has in his entire body plus the bodies of all his handlers. What a wonderful thing it would be for our Republic and liberty itself if the first black president was Thomas Sowell. I would crawl through a mine field of ***** to cast my vote for that gentleman.
Thomas Sowell for President, Freedom for mankind and may collectivism be sent back to the bowels of hell from whence it came. - moomza, on 10/07/2008, -2/+1Why would you hope that? McBush would only bury himself further if he did.
Besides, it's too easy for Obama to go straight to the Keating Five etc etc etc. McBush just has too many skeletons in his closet. MUCH more than Obama. - ClosedCaption, on 10/07/2008, -2/+1ok, and your proof of this is...?
- bartpieters, on 10/08/2008, -2/+1So the same debunked nonsense repackaged once again....
Let's compare it to McCain's personal involved with Keaton, right wing groups and taking money from white racial groups (and not donating it to charity as Obama did with questionable donations), knowlingy having someone on his team being paid by Fanny etc. Let's compare it to Palin being actively involved with a segregation movement, listening to and praising an anti-jew pastor, participating in a session in which she was de-witched and called it a wonderful experience, abusing her powers and endangering her son's live by extensive travel while in labor.
Not even touching associations.... - ClosedCaption, on 10/08/2008, -3/+1@ tkstock
Until you show me where Obama KNEW he was a terrorist and decided to be "allied" with him anyway its a non issue. He was "allied" with this guy on a board about education..not a board about supporting terrorist. You are knowledgeable on this issue but its nothing there. Hell, you supported Bush the whole time KNOWING he was IN BUSINESS with the Bin Laden family. But mums the word, huh? - grbradsk, on 10/07/2008, -7/+3suzycarpenter > Let's see the fighter pilot?
You mean that guy who was at the bottom of his class and subsequently got himself shot down? Dumped his wife when she wasn't pretty anymore and then hired a pom-pom VP?
Oh. - moomza, on 10/07/2008, -6/+2Interesting 30 sec video on how McCain really feels about this guilt by association, in his own words.
