  1. I found this clip on conservative monster web site.

    Watch how that idiot woman is quick to correct the priest. They are definitely covering up for the usurper.

  2. Also, I noticed on the ruling date, shouldn’t it be October 29, 2009 rather than 2010, since there can’t be a ruling on that date as it is a future date.

  4. When you watched the video did you notice the appreoximate age of the female? She fits the profile of the young college grad who is just getting started in the REAL world. They seem to think that they know it all and NOTHING is going to change their view. NOT EVEN THE TRUTH. It is almost as though these young people live in a FANTASY world, where UP is DOWN and LEFT is right,and it DOESN’T matter. At least not as long as everybody AGREES with the nitwit premise. We also noticed her hast in correcting the priest. She really believes that SHE alone is absolutely correct ,and she will act exactly the same no matter who makes the statement that Soetoro was born in Kenya. Sadly it is this cross section of Americans who are the fiercest Soetoro advocates. They do not want to hear the truth,they want their own little “HE IS COOL” fantasy to go on forever. Another female like her was once asked why she voted for SLICK WILLY. Her treply was “He has nice buns”. Wouldn’t you see that as a reason to squander something as important as your vote, on election day. It would appear to me that there is an urgent need to get such people PSYCHIATRIC help, in the last year of college.

  5. speedy, I think you are correct about the date. It must be a typo.

  6. Free Speech ………………………………

    Having once been involved in the atmospheric H tests at Eniwetok in 1954, I believe that I can talk intelligently with respect to ionising radiation from a nuclear detonation. First of all with respect to closing an oil well with a nuclear device probably would be a viable consideration. However it would seem to me that this would only be thought about as a LAST option. There are some aspects of using any form of explosives that is outright HYPER DANGEROUS.. The level of methane that SEEMS to be present could become a bomb of a magnitude that NO MAN has ever built to date. While this is only speculation it remains completely possible. If the entire methane deposit were to explode the consequences would be a disaster of unimagineable proportions. I watched 7 megaton,and 15 megaton devices detonated from approx.40 miles distance over water. The first 15 megaton device was an ACCIDENTAL yeild of OVER TWICE THE PLANNED YEILD. The detonation was the INFAMOUS BRAVO test. Many of us inadvertently inhaled CESIUM 137 dust fallout and were not even aware of it. Because the accidental high yeild the ships were NOT at a SAFE distance .Particularly those that were DOWN WIND TO BEGIN WITH. Some were heavily coated by fallout. The CVE 115 finally had it’s crew removed, was put in cold iron status, and towed back to Bremerton. It took total sandblasting of the entire ship to bring the level of radiation down to a level that was safe for humans to be around. The BRAVO test contaminated over 7000 sq. miles of the Eniwetok test area,in the Marshall Islands. Many native tribes on adjacent islands had to be replanted on islands much further out. The US government is still paying the tab for the mistake.
    If a nuclear device was to be used I really don’t think that it would needs to be of THERMO nuclear design,nor would it really have to be out of the KILOTON size. Kiloton is a hell of a lot safer than MEGATON. If it was correctly placed and a safe distance under the sea floor, I personally think that using a nuclear device would be a viable option. There would be little chance of any radiation ever reaching the atmosphere. As I stated earlier the only chance of radiation entering the atmosphere would be as a result of a catastrophic explosion of methane. I think that even the use of conventional explosives poses a SUBSTANTIAL risk. If something goes wrong it could easily turn into something that could kill a hell of a lot of people. INSTANTLY!. Fortunately making that assessment is above my pay grade.

  7. Free Speech…………………………………………
    The video tells a story, but I am not sure that it is the story that you want to hear. There are literally a thousand reasons why fish kills occur. Sometimes it is the result of mankind’s ignorance,and sometimes it is the result of either a gelogical, or biological change in natural ambients of the sea. At the outset of WW2 there was a very substantial number of fully loaded ships that were sunk by Nazi U BOAT action just off our shores. These ships were carrying EVERYTHING, and ANYTHING. including POISONS, and extremely dangerous chemicals,and elements. I believe personally that over a period well into the next century we will see GIGANTIC die offs of our marine life in general,which will be easily traceable to the leaking sunken wrecks. Hitler didn’t GIVE A DAMN if he polluted all the oceans FOR EVER. His INSANITY was aimed only in one direction ….to RULE THE WORLD, with his MASTER RACE. In reality such a mentality is one that is shrouded in LUNACY. You can clearly see in the video what the gross result of “CRAZIES IN POWER” could ultimately be.

    HOW TRUE IS THIS!
    We’re “broke” & can’t help our own Seniors, Homeless, Veterans, Orphans, etc. ?????

    This is so pathetically true…in the last month we have provided aid to Haiti , Chile , and Turkey .

    Our retired seniors living on a fixed income receive no aid while our government and religious organizations pour hundreds of millions of
    dollars and tons of food to foreign countries.

    We have hundreds of adoptable children who are shoved aside to make room for the adoption of foreign orphans.

    Why are so many American citizens, and the American government, so star struck they won’t provide for our own?

    America: a country where we have homeless without shelter, children going to bed without eating, elderly going without needed meds, and
    mentally ill without treatment – yet we have a benefit for the people of
    Haiti on 12 TV stations, ships and planes lining up with food, water, tents, clothes, bedding, doctors and medical supplies.

    Imagine if we gave ourselves the same support that we gave all other countries.

    I feel bad for them but I also care about America and our Seniors who developed this great country only to be forgotten.
    Sad isn’t it?

    99% of people won’t have the guts to forward this. I’m not one of them…..

  12. The alphabet networks CBS in particular this am still having a hissy fit over why so many Americans believe now that Obama is a Muslim. Obama said so himself-and by his acts people now know him. They are trying but not succeeding to put this story out, and they are blaming the internet for this Obama/Muslim dust-up. They are saying believe them but not the internet-as if. I wonder if the Muslim angle is why the media suppression of the LA Times article/video? that they would not allow to be released? Has that ever been released? They (national media) was really paranoid about that at the time, I think it was before the election.

    From what NOAA indicated to congressional staffers, we’re not going to know for a while what the final report actually looks like or how accurate that first one even was. So is the government operating under the assumption that “most” of the oil is gone? And what does that mean for how they’re handling the response–everything from cleaning up the oil itself to evaluating the safety of seafood?

    Perhaps even more concerning, did members of the Obama administration, in their effort to declare “mission accomplished” and finally get some good news out of the Gulf, create more problems than they solved? I mean, they got their New York Times headline, so at least we can say their PR mission was accomplished. But the rush to put out a report they still can’t substantiate should raise red flags galore.

  14. Free Speech @ 1:30 pm | I wonder if this group realizes that when they try to lie, suppress, scrub videos (that everyone has learned to save immediately since they pulled that one once too often) that they are drawing a bulls eye on themselves-plus Americans talk to one another-friends, family, co-workers, vendors etc. all over the country. Creepy, cover-ups do not change lies, well maybe for a very short time.

  15. In addition to efforts to convince us that the oil is all gone in the Gulf (it’s not), the government has been promoting the idea that seafood from the region is totally safe. Obama himself has been banging this drum, noshing on plenty of seafood during his trip to the region last week, serving it up at his birthday bash, and of course, taking a dip in the Gulf with his daughter.

    But how safe is it really? A study published this week in the Journal of the American Medical Association suggests that there may be good reason to be concerned about the long-term impacts, even if the seafood is safe for most people to eat right now. The biggest issue, the authors write, is with shrimp, oysters, crabs and other invertebrates that have a harder time clearing out polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), which are carcenogenic chemical compounds found in oil and other fossil fuels, from their systems. “Although vertebrate marine life can clear PAHs from their system, these chemicals accumulate for years in invertebrates,” they write.

    There are also longer-term worries for larger fish like tuna, swordfish and mackerel, which over time may accumulate dangerous levels of heavy metals found in crude oil, like cadmium, mercury, and lead, “potentially increasing future health hazards from consumption,” the report concludes. It was authored by Gina Solomon, a senior scientist with the Natural Resources Defense Council and a medical doctor who teaches in the Department of Medicine at University of California-San Francisco, and Sarah Janssen, also an MD and public health expert with NRDC.

    What’s So Special About Barry?

    Here is a good discussion and debate topic. It might elicit a variety of opinions, but I don’t think anyone will dig in and become an annoyance. That is because I really don’t think anybody knows. Yet it may be very enlightening and invigorating to discuss.

    1. Suppose Barry were “chosen” when he was very young? Why? Why him? Out of millions of other potential “sleeper agents”, why this particular little kid? To me, the only possible answer is that he had special parent(s). Yet the advertised parents are no way special. If anything, they are less than special. This scenario would almost require that at least one of his parents was somebody other than the official narrative.

    2. Suppose Barry were “discovered” when he was a teen? Already he had demonstrated a troubled and confused youth. Already he had starting developing an attitude. Why would “they” pick him when they could have picked somebody with a better background and attitude? And if he was special in some way, how come nobody but “them” noticed?

    3. Suppose Barry were “selected” when he was in college? Again, why? What caught their eye? What confluence of special or unusual circumstances identified him as The One?

    4. Suppose they decided to jump on his horse after he was already in politics? What an awful lot of baggage he had by then! He had criminal background. He had suspicious birth and ancestry circumstances. All of these things would have to be undone or worked around for him to succeed. Who thought he was so special that even with these impairments he was selected? And why?

    None of this makes any sense. Nobody has put forward an explanation that passes the sanity test. Why him? Why now? Who is “they”. What is their purpose? Their agenda? Their goal?

    State and federal authorities, who insist they are closely following safety protocols, have begun reopening selected segments of Gulf of Mexico waters to recreational and commercial fishing after the successful capping and cementing of BP’s blown-out deepwater Macondo well in recent weeks.

    But fiercely independent Gulf fishermen, many of whom harbor a deep mistrust of authority since the much-criticized government response to Hurricane Katrina in 2005, believe both President Barack Obama’s administration and BP may be moving too hastily to close this ecological and financial nightmare.

    “The government is telling us the waters and seafood are safe, but I would not feed my family on anything I catch out there now,” said Jerry Miller, who has fished off Mississippi’s coast for 35 years.

    Gulf Water is so Toxic that Dolphins, Fish, Crabs, Stingrays and Other Animals are “Trying to Crawl Out of the Water”

  35. And AP notes:

    Dolphins and sharks are showing up in surprisingly shallow water just off the Florida coast. Mullets, crabs, rays and small fish congregate by the thousands off an Alabama pier. Birds covered in oil are crawling deep into marshes, never to be seen again.
    Marine scientists studying the effects of the BP disaster are seeing some strange — and troubling — phenomena.

    Fish and other wildlife are fleeing the oil out in the Gulf and clustering in cleaner waters along the coast. But that is not the hopeful sign it might appear to be, researchers say.

    The animals’ presence close to shore means their usual habitat is badly polluted, and the crowding could result in mass die-offs as fish run out of oxygen. Also, the animals could easily get devoured by predators.

    “A parallel would be: Why are the wildlife running to the edge of a forest on fire? There will be a lot of fish, sharks, turtles trying to get out of this water they detect is not suitable,” said Larry Crowder, a Duke University marine biologist.

    AFP reports, “BP said Saturday it began removing drill pipe and other equipment from a damaged wellhead under the Gulf of Mexico.”

    Both Bob Bea and Matt Simmons have commented on this “other equipment” in the wellhead.

    Flashback: Discovery of second pipe in Deepwater Horizon riser stirs debate among experts, New Orleans Times Picayune, July 9, 2010:

    For the first time Friday, the Coast Guard and BP acknowledged that a mysterious second pipe, wedged next to the drill pipe. “We found there was actually two sets of drill pipe there,” said retired Adm. …

    Some experts [including Robert Bea] have advanced another explanation. They believe poorly cemented casings — tubes that are supposed to form solid walls down thousands of feet of the well bore — may have been dislodged by the blast of natural gas that shot up out of the well and above the sea floor.

    Matt Simmons discussed the “mystery” pipe just weeks before his death.

    Nuke the Oil Well?, CNBC, July 7, 2010:

    Rush Transcript Excerpts

    Matt Simmons: There’s now sufficient scientific evidence… the government finally did, i think, subsea sonar imaging at the end of last week about the actual BOP.

    And coming up through five stories of steel were two shafts of the casing.

    Which really indicates that [the casing] must have come out at such tremendous pressures.

  37. Editor’s note

    Bob Cavnar said on today on his blog, The Daily Hurricane, that he believes the decision to remove the drill pipe and other equipment from the well is an unwise and risky operation.

    … The erratic decision making, lack of consistent direction, and unclear chain of command has confused the media and the public, and caused this story to drag on far longer than it should have. I believed then, and continue to believe, that if they had simply kept the first relief well working, this story would have been over a month ago. But it’s not. The relief well, again, the only solution to killing the blowout well, has been delayed for the capping stack procedure, then the “well integrity test”, the “static kill” and cement job, the “near ambient test, the “ambient test”, now the fishing job to get drill pipe extracted before actually trying to change out the BOP, which I believe is unwise.

  38. Much of what has gone on this last month has been confusing to every industry insider I’ve talked to. Delaying the relief well, especially with John Wright, the best relief well driller on the planet, in charge, is unconscionable. Had Wright been left alone, this would have been over weeks ago, in my view. And safely. With the revelation of the US government’s active management of this crisis, much of my confusion is now cleared up. The reasons for all the course changing, halting press briefings, the completely opaque and lukewarm “technical briefings” are now explained. It looks like BP has been happy to take the backseat to the government. The reasons are simple; BP was off the hook from the moment the government actually took over, and would be more than happy to point the finger at the government if the whole thing blew up

    The only way to assure this well is dead is the relief well. Since the BP/US government team has now blinded themselves from being able to see what’s going on with all this business from the top of the well, it is now most assuredly so. Now their attempt to fish the drill pipe, which is likely held in place by collapsed casing, the casing hanger, or the BOP (maybe all three), is ill advised and risky. Likewise, pulling the BOP stack right now is risky. Their concern for components on the stack is about 5 weeks too late after already putting far more pressure on it than for which it was designed, something I don’t believe BP made clear to Chu’s team when they decided to shut it in. The static kill/cement job made killing this well harder, putting into question the weaknesses of the very BOP stack components we pointed to over a month ago.

    “GULF OIL WON’T DEGRADE FOR DECADES”
    Saturday, Augus 21, 2010

    http://www.washingtonsblog.com/2010/08/gulf-oil-wont-degrade-for-decades.html

    “As you might have heard, scientists are finding gigantic under oil plumes from the BP spill, including one that is more than 22 miles long, more than a mile wide and 650 feet deep.

    On Thursday, Dr. Ian MacDonald and and Dr. Lisa Suatoni testified to a Congressional subcommittee that the oil will stay toxic, and will not degrade much further, for decades. MacDonald is an expert in deep-ocean extreme communities including natural hydrocarbon seeps, gas hydrates, and mud volcano systems, a former long-time NOAA scientist, and a professor of Biological Oceanography at Florida State University. Suatoni has a PhD in Ecology and Evolutionary Biology from Yale, and is Senior Scientist at the Natural Resources Defense Council’s Oceans Program.

    Dr. MacDonald told Congress that the oil has already degraded, emulsified and evaporated about as much as its going to, and it is going to very resistant for further biodegradation. The oil will be in the environment for a long-time, he said, and the imprint of the BP discharge will be detectable “for the rest of my life” (he’s 58, and the average lifespan for American men is about 76; so that’s some 18 years).

    Dr. Suatoni told Congress that oil which goes into low-oxygen zones will remain in a full toxic form for decades. (VIDEO).

    Why isn’t the oil degrading faster?

    As National Georgraphic noted Thursday:

    The oil plume’s stability is “a little unexpected,” study leader Richard Camilli, of WHOI’s Applied Ocean Physics and Engineering Department, said at a Thursday press briefing in Washington, D.C.

    “We don’t have any clear indication as to why it set up at that depth.”

    It’s unclear why the Gulf’s microbes aren’t eating the oil plume, but the organisms are infamous for being unpredictable, said study co-author Christopher Reddy, a marine chemist at WHOI.

    ***

    Further studies are needed to figure out why the plume isn’t degrading, Reddy said during the press briefing ….

    Indeed, one of the world’s leading experts on oil-eating bacteria told me yesterday that the main oil-eaters aren’t even present in the underwater plumes he sampled.”

    I personally do not believe that any sort of prerequisite “TRAINING” if you will,took place where Soetoro is concerned. Only some cleverly manipulated circumstances,and documents occurred which the DNC was largely responsible for “trafficing”, and otherwise falsifying. Later certain people in Congress aided in the deception of the US Public. I believe further that the entire FRAUD was perpetrated within the body of the LIBERAL extreme left DEMOCRATS, any one of whom would sell his/her own mother. This includes MMMMMSSSSS.IMPORTANT,Leahy, Dodd,Reid, Schummer, Hoyer, Durbin, etc. I believe that each,and ALL are guilty of aiding in the total fraud.

    BTW – I watched Fox News Sunday this morning. They agonized over Obama quite a lot. They talked about the Muslim thing and other failures to execute. It is clear they do not like him and think his policies are a disaster.

    But, oddly, they continue to defend the MAN. They treat him as just another President who some like and some don’t. They don’t seem to grasp the fact that this one is different.

    Even weirder, they could just let it lie there and not make a comment. But they go out of their way (more than would be required, for any reason I can think of) to defend the MAN. They also continue to imply it is only the extreme right who are suspicious of the MAN. And that the “mainstream” either marginally agree with him or marginally disagree with him, but no well-meaning righteous person has a problem with the MAN.

    Given all his ties to corruption, Islamophilia, proven socialism, etc., it is remarkable that they refuse to address these issues. And they never mentioned Racism and did not even remotely imply anything was about that. They just want to gratuitously insist that he is a Regular Guy.

    Beyond bizarre.

    Farther in Favor of GOP
    Congressional Quarterly, by John McArdle

    Posted By:Pluperfect, 8/22/2010 4:21:07 AM
    It’s hit that point in the election cycle where the competitive nature of Congressional races are shifting rapidly. Unfortunately for Democrats, the overwhelming majority of those shifts are in favor of Republicans. The latest Senate race rating changes by CQ Politics includes five changes — in California, Washington, Wisconsin, Georgia and Iowa — that benefit Republican candidates. And Democrats can’t even catch a break on the sixth change, which moves Florida’s Senate race from Leans Republican to the more competitive Tossup category based solely of the strength of the Independent campaign run by Gov. Charlie Crist.

In 1945, he taught one of the first jazz history courses in the United States, at the Abraham Lincoln School in Chicago.”

    *******************************************
    Old Salt, your comments are pretty much the same as my feelings. I don’t believe in some huge, grand conspiracy that was working for years to bring BHO to the fore.

    Citizen Carlyle, when you first raised the issue earlier today, various thoughts entered my noggin, and then Old Salt weighed in. There is one factor that was important, IMHO, and that was the race card. Another thing, multitudes were cast under that charismatic “presence”. And remember all of the hype about what a wonderful orator he is? The so-called charisma and oration turned many of us “off” right from the get-go,
    but the audiences were enamored! Do you remember how they could just not get enough of him, while the rest of us were “gagging”?

    Isn’t it possible that after the 2008 primary campaign got in full swing, the Dems saw him as The One – after all, America’s first black president? It seems to me that’s when the Kennedy’s dumped Hillary and from then on it was full speed ahead to bring The One to the general election. We remember all the crookedness that went on behind closed doors by the DNC with respect to electors. Of course, there were the lies, election fraud and deception, which continues on to this day.

    My mind wanders often and this question pops up: Don’t you all think that BHO’s narcissism causes him to have great glee (diabolical) in the perpetuation of the mystery he has created about his origins? I believe he really loves the attention and enjoys keeping folks puzzled. What a despicable, evil being!

Obama cons originally perpetrated by his mother have always reminded me of Sante Kimes, maybe Obama decided because his mother got away with so many crimes for so long, that he would take it one step further, almost as if it (the crime) was a drug and he couldn’t stop himself. He took it way too far and now he has no way to back track.

  73. No Christian would have demanded this, I remember Obama having a total hissy fit about this. If he is such a Christian why do Christian symbols irritate/frighten him so much.

    I don’t think Barry just happened. I’m not sure it was a Great Conspiracy (NWO, Russians, whatever), but it was at least a little conspiracy. He is not a great orator. He is a good teleprompter reader. That is not a skill you just pick up. Somebody trained him, and drilled him hard. Somebody trained him, and drilled him hard, on posture, movements, facial expressions, etc. He is not natural.

    And it is just not about race. Lot’s of other black people would have made better choices. Heck, he isn’t really even black. But you also have to go back to his premature autobiography. Who writes a life’s perspective at such a young age? The answer is nobody. It seems 99.99% sure that this autobiography was written for him. Why? Even then, he had apparently been singled out by “somebody”. Who? Why?

    Or both???

  78. Circumstances point to Madelyn Dunham as the mother.

    1. The Dunham’s were swingers, explaining her accidental pregnancy at her older age.
    2. Madelyn had a passport at the alleged time of BHO’s birth.
    3. She had reason to hide her pregnancy and go to Mombasa to birth BHO and possibly leave him with Barack, Sr. When Barack, Sr. didn’t take BHO, Jr, Madelyn brought him back to Hawaii, registered his birth and quickly passed him along to her daughter who was conveniently leaving for school in Seattle. Stanley Ann Dunham had not been issued a passport at the alleged time of BHO’s birth in Mombasa and could not have traveled outside the country. Maybe Madelyn even used her daughter’s name at the hospital in Mombasa to cover her tracks.
    4. A farce of a marriage tied the two together (Stanley Ann and Barack, Sr.) and made the whole story plausible, but there was never any expectation on either side for a real marriage and they never lived at the same address.
    5. Stanley Ann raises BHO, Jr as her son until he becomes a nuisance and bother to her. This occurs at some point during her marriage to the Indonesian. The adoption of BHO was an attempt to make it work. When it didn’t work, little Barry gets sent back to his real mom, Madelyn, for good!
    6. This is BHO’s big secret and it looks like Madelyn took it to her grave.

    I bet there are family members still alive that know about this secret. Time for a real reporter to start doing a little digging and asking the right questions.

    Circumstances point to Madelyn Dunham as the mother.
    *************************************
    Some of the events you list are plausible, but there is one big problem with the theory that Madelyn Dunham is Obama’s mother. Have you ever observed the facial features of Obama as compared with Stanley Ann Dunham and also her father (Obama’s grandfather)? The three of them have the exact shape of face, including length and size of chin. Therefore, some have felt that the grandfather might actually be Obama’s real father, simply because of the strong resemblance between the two. However, Ann also bears the same characteristics (inherited from her father). To me, that rules out Madelyn completely, because she does not have anything similar to pass onto a child of hers who would have a different unknown father.

  80. Cabby AZ……………………………
    I have often asked,and still ask”How can anyone attend 4 years at Harvard and not be aware that there are only 50 states”? Soetoro clearly made a major and perhaps THE major slip that will ultimately be instrumental in doing him in when he said”I have been in 57 states.” Anyone who had lived in the US or gone to school in this country would also have known from the first grade on there are only 50 states. This gives rise to a justified suspicion that Soetoro isn’t even a citizen of the US. For the DNC to have even CONSIDERED him as a candidate suggests that a state of absolute panic must have existed within the DNC..in regard to getting a candidate on the ballot. Because the DNC was in such a state of disarray they turned a blind eye to a large percentage of the qualifications necessary. They thought that NOBODY would even realise that they hadn’t vetted him or anything else .Instead they simply lied (A DEMOCRATIC STRATEGY FOR DECADES),and falsified pertinent documents. When the little switcheroo was pulled on Hillarya lot of suspicion was raised regarding Soetoro. People began to DIG for info. This is when the very first suspicions were confirmed ,and believe it or not by SNOPES. They even initially suggested the Kenya connection. It is clear that somebody at SNOPES was DOING THEIR HOMEWORK. That connection would probably not been unearthed had they not done the necessary research. As far as I can determine SNOPES WAS the first to talk about the Kenya connection. I done my own research on the question, and inquired at several newspapers who were supporting McCain. They were willing to expend energy to ascertain facts. Most already knew about the Kenya connection from 1994 research. Maybe SNOPES got the info from the newspapers as well. Apparently there was substantial suspicion about his qualifications to even hold the office of Senator. As it has finally been determined he lied about a number of things even then. Or rather,the DNC LIED FOR HIM. I am quite doubtful that he knew enough about politics to be able to lie successfully. That is why I believe that the DNC done most ,if not ALL of the lying. He doesn’t know the English language well enough to successfully lie off the top of his head. Everything he says publically is read from a teleprompter. He does not know how to be spontaneous, like people who have lived in the US for all of their lives. Given the length of time that he was allegedly in the US school system he too would have known a lot more……..even only 50 states existed. Taken as a whole there is a great deal of knowledge to be gained about Soetoro. You only need to examine the things that he DOESN’t know that he should,and would if he was FOR REAL.

  81. Citizen Carlyle 12:27 AM
    And it is just not about race. Lot’s of other black people would have made better choices. Heck, he isn’t really even black. But you also have to go back to his premature autobiography. Who writes a life’s perspective at such a young age? The answer is nobody. It seems 99.99% sure that this autobiography was written for him. Why? Even then, he had apparently been singled out by “somebody”. Who? Why?
    **********************************
    You make a good point about the autobiography (in fact, two books at a young age) and, yes, it had to be written for him. Don’t some feel that it was Bill Ayers? And I agree that there was some type of conspiracy in the normal sense of the word. (Not the type we see overly flaunted so much these days).

    ” ‘Somebody’ Who? Why? “, you ask. From a human perspective, I would say “more than one” – Guesstimate – Marxists like Ayers, George Soros, and Islamists…… All who want to see the downfall of the U.S. in one way or another. This doesn’t mean they all worked together in some joint effort that they themselves engineered. (Of course, one must also factor in the Dem’s desire to regain the W.H.)

    To me, this entire saga reinforces the power of evil to miraculously coordinate all of the above forces in a supernatural way. So, it didn’t take collusion among these perpetrators to accomplish getting BHO into the W.H. Many are skeptical but there is a master deceiver, Satan, who has been getting his way big time.

  82. Cabby……………………………
    I too have a problem with what Crystal said. If his grandfather was actually his father he would be CAUCASIAN. His grandfather was Caucasian,(Stanley Ann’s father). Was she actually talking about Obama SENIOR’S father? Obama Senior’s father would have been black. He would have been a really old man when Stanley Ann met Obama senior.

    You bet, Old Salt – I know you have done much research on the usurper and his origins, etc. The blooper about the 57 states was a whopper. Can you just imagine if Bush had pulled a boner like that? He would have been chewed up in a meat grinder, but not BHO – The MSM gave his a complete pass as they are still doing fairly well.

    Agreed also – He is absolutely NOT one of us. Certainly he did have to have teleprompter lessons (Ha), because he cannot say anything at all with any confidence unless he is reading it. What a lying phony!!! Please tell me, why so many folks can’t see through this charade?

  84. Maybe Obama senior was doing a little drilling for oil with Madeline on the sly. If she inadvertently became pregnant then the story becomes plausible. I would think that given her position in the Bank it is probable that the fetus would have been terminated. People in such positions cannot stand scandal.

    I too have a problem with what Crystal said. If his grandfather was actually his father he would be CAUCASIAN
    ************************************
    I think Crystal was trying to make the case that Obama’s grandmother was actually his mother , in which case the grandmother, Madelyn, would have had to have gotten tangled up with a black to produce Obama. For the reasons I gave earlier that seems remote because of the great similarity in facial features (Ann Dunham, Stanley Dunham and Obama).

    There was an interesting article written awhile back that suggested that Stanley, Ann’s father, is actually Obama’s real father. One of the reasons given was the strong resemblance between Obama and Stanley. Of course, that would have required Stanley to have gotten mixed up with a black, which some have suggested as a possibility, considering his lifestyle.

    Oh, what an absolute mess! You’ve got to admit that this kind of background would be enough to run any normal mind into insanity.

  86. Cabby AZ……………………….
    The 57 states slip not only suggests that he is NOT even a citizen, but it also clearly shows his ISLAMIC connection. He was inadvertently speaking about the 57 states of the alleged Islamic religion. Why would he even talk about the Islamic belief if he had adopted Christianity, and it was in his HEART. If it is NOT in your heart then you are NOT a Christian. Nor is Soetoro.

  87. Crystal…………………………..
    While I completely respect your notion regarding Stanley ann’s mother, I have to say that I believe that Stanley Ann did have a passport. If she didn’t she xcould easily have used her mother’s passport, and got away with it. Women can easily make themselves look much older than they actually are. If somebody waited until the last minute to show the passport,an already overburdened agent couls easily have waved her through. She would have been by herself, and protruding eponentially. in her pregnancy. It would seem that if somebody would not let her fly FROM Mombassa, why the hell did they allow her to fly TOO Mombassa to begin with.

    It just could not be said any better! BTW, you’ve got to be burning the midnight oil tonight?! Seriously, do you think we will ever know the whole story? It’ll have to be stranger than fiction.

    I have diabetic neuropathy in my feet and sometimes it gets all stirred up. You feel as though your feet are freezing, and at the same time have about 110 volts passing thru your feet at. That is hard to imagine, but I can guarantee you that when you have it you know it. I try new medications from time to time, but I know that there is no cure,and eventually you lose the foot,and sometimes the lower leg with it. I don’t let this possibility ruffle my feathers, after all I made it to 79. That in itself in my family is a big accomplishment. Sometimes it takes a little while to settle back down,and I end up burning the midnight oil as such.

    Ooooh…. a couple of my friends suffer with that neuropathy in their feet and it can be devastating, so I certainly am sorry that you have to endure such pain. You are a brave soul.

    Typo:

  93. Subject – The 57 States mistake

    I think that the USURPER had his mind on the money Senator John Kerry and his lovely bride Theresa (“Shove-it” & HEINZ 57 Ketchup fortune) Heinz Kerry contributed to his campaign.

    PS – JK, have you paid the R.I. taxes on that yacht you bought with the late Pa. Senator John Heinz’s MONEY, that was made in Australia?

  94. Bad grammar – “The boat that was made in Australia” not the “MONEY”

    … to have even CONSIDERED him as a candidate suggests that a state of absolute panic must have existed within the DNC..in regard to getting a candidate on the ballot.

    =============================================

    I don’t buy that. They had Hillary. She polled better than either McCain or Obama.

  97. Michelle At 9:00 pm,

    Excellent Post!! Exactly Corect!! One of my animals jumped on my desk, and somehow the little animal was playing & knocked the laptop off the desk and the laptop hit the floor hard….Oh dear, now the laptop I am using actually posts things before I even click send and submit!! I have tried to get the laptop fixed at the computer shop, but the computer shop told me that it would be far more expensive to get the keyboard fixed, then it would be to buy a different tower PC computer or a different laptop.

  98. OldSalt — I’m so sorry to hear about your problems with neuropathy. I understand how tough it is to deal with. My mother is also diabetic, and has had great results with nutritional supplements. Specifically, the B vitamins and ALA (alpha-lipoic acid) can be very effective with peripheral neuropathy. Both cod liver oil and olive oil contain high amounts of ALA. She also takes a multi-vitamin specifically formulated for diabetics called Nature’s Way Completia® Diabetic Multivitamin that has ALA in addition to the B vitamins. Her doctor has approved both the vitamins and the cod liver oil supplements. Maybe this would help you also. We get my mom’s sups from vitacost.com (best prices I’ve found, and they auto-ship too). Take good care and good luck, Old Salt 🙂

  99. OldSalt – Hi to You, I’m sorry to hear about your diabetes related nerve problems. I understand the small nerve fibers are impacted more than the large nerve fibers, but in addition to Mia’s suggestions about vitamins, I would also recommend getting a prescription from your M.D. for B12 injections. I would recommend 3,000 micrograms (equivalent to 3 milligrams) of cyanocobalamin or methylcobalamin to be injected with a 30 gage (one of the smallest thinnest needles) needle to your arm or butt. Maybe once per week would be good. If you don’t want to get that aggressive, then find a sublingual B12 supplement of around 1,000 micrograms and add that to Mia’s recommendations. Again, sorry and best to you.

    I don’t think Barry just happened.
    ***********
    Don’t remember where the information came from (one of Zero’s bio’s probably), but Zero said his mother would tell him he was going to be president. She was involved with the Ford Foundation and micro finance in Indonesia. Considering what the FF did at the time, and the people involved, I wouldn’t be surprised if she, at the very least, had contacts with people who could get her son into the right places, and used them. Her connections created connections for him. Not so much intentional at first, just a slow and steady building of connections until he hit the jackpot with people like Auchi, Brzezinski, Ayers, etc. I think it’s likely that sometime during his college years “someone” thought there might be “value” in using Zero to achieve a certain goal. And here we are today……….

  101. “KILLING MISSIONARIES, FELLOW MUSLIMS, AND CIVILIZATION”
    By Alan Caruba
    August 8, 2010

    http://factsnotfantasy.blogspot.com/2010/08/killing-missionaries-fellow-muslims-and.html

    “The latest news out of Afghanistan is the brutal murder of missionaries who were part of a Christian medical team. Among the many excuses for Islamic barbarism is that the West is at war with Islam. No, Islam is at war with civilization.

    In early August, after having hiked for more than ten hours to bring medical aid to isolated Afghan villagers, a team composed of six Americans, two Afghans, one German and a Briton, doctors, nurses, and logistical personnel, were gunned down by Taliban in the remote Parun valley of Nuristan province about 160 miles north of Kabul.

    Their crime, according to Zabiullah Mujahid, a Taliban spokesman, was that they were “spying for the Americans” and “preaching Christianity.” They were members of International Assistance Mission (IAM), one of the longest serving non-governmental organizations operating in Afghanistan.

    The team leader was Tom Little, an optometrist from Delmar, New York. He and his family had been in Afghanistan for thirty years with a break during the Afghan-Soviet conflict. He and his wife had raised their three daughters there. AIM receives private donations.

    None of this made any difference to the Taliban that killed him and the others. Elsewhere in Afghanistan that day, a child was murdered by Sunni bombers and a bomb hidden in a wheelbarrow left five others dead. In Pattani, Thailand, a Buddhist husband and wife were murdered by Muslim gunmen in their bicycle shop and their 4-year-old nephew was wounded. In Kirkuk, Iraq Muslims shot a woman to death and in Baghdad two civilians were blown to bits by bombers.

    Islam is an equal opportunity “religion of peace.” It kills Muslims, Christians, Buddhists and anyone else in the name of Allah. All this killing is rooted in the Koran, justified by the view that unbelievers have no right to life unless they convert. Even then, the schism between Sunni and Shiite Muslims is sufficient reason to kill each other.

    There are well over a billion Muslims in a world of some six billion people and, while most undoubtedly want peace, their religion requires that the world be divided between Dar al Islam and Dar al Harb, the world of Islam and the world of war.

    It can be argued that Christianity has blood on its hands and, historically, that is true, but what is most true about Islam in the last century and this one is that it represents a war on civilization itself.

    In a Europe that has seen an influx of Muslims, nations there are struggling with them wherever they have gained large enough numbers to demand submission to Sharia law and other imported customs inconsistent with modernity.

    Americans paid little attention to Islam until 9/11 destroyed the Twin Towers and a portion of the Pentagon. Up to then, Islam seemed far away despite a series of embassy bombings and other events.

    Now Americans struggle with an Islam that wants to build a mosque within steps of Ground Zero in New York City. This has come as a shock to many, but Islam has a long tradition of building mosques over the sacred ground of others.

    The Al-Aqsa Mosque in Jerusalem was built over the site of the Jewish Temple on the Temple Mount, sacred to Jews. In Constantinople, now Istanbul, the Hagia Sophia Cathedral was converted to a mosque. Throughout India, an estimated 2,000 mosques were built on the sites of Hindu temples.

    Wherever Islam gained a foothold and became the state religion—in Islam there is no separation between church and state—the backwardness, the oppression of women, the refusal to accept another religion unless its practitioners accept a second-class position in society, are all endemic to Islam.

    Islam is mired in the seventh century mentality of its founder and charged with a hostility, not just to other faiths, but to modernity itself, to the advances of civilization that seeks to reduce tensions between nations and peoples.

    We are not dealing with people devoid of contact with modern civilization. Al Qaeda recruits via the Internet. They show how they behead “infidels” and urge more attacks everywhere against them.

    For those who leave Islam, the punishment prescribed in the Koran is death. For those who “insult” Islam, the punishment prescribed is death. And for those who bring free medical care to villagers is death.

    The proposed New York mosque should be built only when a synagogue or church can be built anywhere in Saudi Arabia where Islam began and where the harshest form of Islam, Wahhabi, is practiced.

    If Islam calls the world of unbelievers Dar al Harb, the world of war, why can’t the world understand that Islam is at war with it?

    Of course Christianity has “blood on its hands”. BUT each time there was murder, rape, killing or hostage taking, it was a violation of Christ’s teaching. There was always Christ’s rule to fall back on and correct the behavior of these sinners. Sinners, outside and inside the Church. But that is exactly the difference with Islam: murder, rape, killing or hostage taking is the RULE, not the exception. And it is the RULE because the FOUNDER of Islam and its cohorts murdered, raped and pillaged. See the difference? Mohammed married a nine year old! This religion is of the devil himself.
