You know when obama says McCain is not as 'clean' as he claims, there are solid facts. The lobbists and special interests have started to run away. there must be many more aligned to McCain in other connections. America needs to change the way politics operate in Washignton - and only Obama can bring real change.

To the Dems that claim they will vote for McCain if their candidate doesn't win, take a really deep breath. Although you might be absolutely hating the other Democratic candidate right now, they will be the best chance you have in seeing this country get back on track concerning the economy, domestic and foreign policy. John McCain is trying to differentiate himself from Pres. Bush on rhetoric, but his policy views are a mirror-image of George Bush!

Republican lobbists for dictators and despots is not new. We have a long national history of supporting right wing groups. We jump in bed with them, sell them arms, and then when the people finally revolt we call them left-wing terrorists. We then create a whole new population against us and wonder how it happened. The expression "losing one's bearings" refers to direction, not age. Apparently not only John but his campaign has lost its bearings. Or has it?

McCAIN FOR PRESIDENT OF MYANMAR/BURMA!!!

Hmmmmmm.......McCain makes a big deal of a Hamas leader saying he'd like to see Obama win (funny how our allies and enemies around the world all favor Obama, be they in Europe or the Mideast).

Yet unlike the McCain campaign officials massive lobbying on behalf of the evil Burmese junta that chooses to watch their own citizens die instead of let foreigners into the country, Obama's campaign gurus didn't lobby or take money from Hamas.

AT THE RISK OF SOUNDING LIKE HILLARY'S FORMER PALS @ SNL (former because last night Amy Poehler stuck the knife in)....

So where is McCain's statement about these characters he surrounded himself with? If he doesn't know who is working for him or anything about their background, why did he hire them? And why did it take an exposé article for them to resign? McCain is just like Bush - he cannot take responsibility for anything unless it makes him look good. He blathers on and on about lobbyists, pork barrel spending, special interests, the war, and yet he's long been, and is, a big part of the problem in Washington. He's a major insider working for special interests because they pay him handsomely. When he repeatedly uses that worn-out phrase, "my friends", he really means it. Except that he's really addressing his lobbyist and special donor friends - not the general public. We're not his friends. We're citizens who vote and citizens who are fed up with Bush's version of democracy - which is no version at all. McCain is Bush all over again, with just a slightly different group of special interests driving his campaign.

What did they choose to do with it? Well does Corruption ring a bell. Where's Tom Delay, Sen Cunningham, Cong. Lewis(under investigation) and the list goes on and on and on. And none of the Republicans still in office can escape the blame, because they all voted for all of it. Now they just Block everything the Democrats try to do because the Dems don't have an absolute majority. So vote for McBush and continue the Bush Cheney era.

HUSSEIN OBAMA

I have felt for sometime now that Obama is the one person
that 'Frightens Me'. I believe the Bible
has warned us that 'A man will come from the East that will be
charismatic in nature and have proposed solutions
for all our problems and
his rhetoric will attract will many supporters!'

When will our pathetic
Nation quit turning their back on God and understand that this man is 'A
Muslim'....First, Last and always....and we are AT WAR with the Muslim Nation,
whether our bleeding-heart, secular, Liberal friends believe it or not.
This man fits every description from the
Bible of the 'Anti-Christ'!

I'm just glad to know that there are others that are
frightened by this man!

Semper
Fidelis, Chuck

'Saepius Exertus, Semper Fidelis, Frater

Who is Barack Obama?

Very interesting and something that should be considered in your
choice.

If you do not ever forward anything else, please forward this
to all your contacts...this is very scary to think of what lies ahead of us
here in our own United States...better heed this and pray about it and share
it.

http://snopes.com ' confirms this is factual.

Check for yourself.

Who is Barack Obama?

Probable U. S. presidential candidate, Barack Hussein Obama was
born in Honolulu, Hawaii, to Barack Hussein Obama, Sr., a black MUSLIM from
Nyangoma-Kogel, Kenya and Ann Dunham, a white ATHEIST from Wichita ,
Kansas.

Obama's parents met at the University of Hawaii.

When Obama was two years old, his parents divorced. His father returned to
Kenya. His mother then married Lolo Soetoro, a RADICAL Muslim from
Indonesia.

When Obama was 6 years old, the family relocate to
Indonesia.
Obama attended a MUSLIM school in Jakarta.
He also spent two years in a Catholic school.

Obama takes great care to conceal the fact that he is a
Muslim. He is quick to point out that, 'He
was once a Muslim, but that he also attended Catholic
school.'

Obama's political handlers are
attempting to make it appear that that he is not a radical.

Obama's
introduction to Islam came via his father, and that this
influence was temporary at best. In reality, the
senior Obama returned to Kenya soon after the
divorce, and never again had any direct influence
over his son's education.

Lolo Soetoro, the second husband of Obama's mother, Ann
Dunham, introduced his stepson to Islam.
Obama was enrolled in a Wahabi school in Jakarta

Wahabism is the RADICAL teaching that is followed by the
Muslim terrorists who are now waging Jihad against the western world.
Since it is politically expedient to be a CHRISTIAN when seeking major
public office in the United States, Barack Hussein Obama has joined the United Church of Christ in an attempt to downplay his Muslim background. ALSO, keep in mind that when he
was sworn into office he DID NOT use the Holy Bible, but instead the Koran.

Barack Hussein Obama will NOT recite the Pledge of Allegiance nor will he
show any reverence for our flag. While others place their hands over their hearts, Obama turns his back to the flag
and slouches. Do you want someone like this as your
PRESIDENT?

Let us all remain alert concerning Obama's expected
presidential candidacy.

The Muslims have said they plan on destroying
the US from the inside out, what better way to start than at the highest level
- through the President of the United States, one of their own!

Please
forward to everyone you know. Would you want this man leading our
country?...... NOT ME!!!

Not only should we review the candidate, but also we should review staff history as well. There have been problems in all the campaigns. Clinton had one at least; possibly there were more. Obama had Power leave after some comments among others. McCain's campaign isn't immune either.
