1ST AMMENDMENT UNDER ATTACK in MO by Obama TRUTH SQUAD
Obama Wants NRA Ads Banned
The Obama camp has been threatening television and radio stations to keep them from airing anti-Obama ads.
The latest target is the NRA and stations in Pennsylvania.
Earlier this week, the National Rifle Association’s Political Victory Fund released a series of radio and television spots to educate gun owners and sportsmen about Barack Obama’s longstanding anti-gun record. In response to the NRA-PVF ads, a clearly panicked Obama campaign and the Democratic National Committee (DNC) are doing everything they can to hide Obama’s real record by mounting a coordinated assault on the First Amendment.
[…]
The NRA says Obama’s camp are sending out these “intimidating cease and desist letters” to cable operators and television stations, threatening their FCC licenses if they run the ads.
The NRA charged that “Obama and the DNC have been using strong-arm tactics reminiscent of Chicago machine politics to try and cover up the truth and silence NRA by forcing the stations to assist them in hiding Obama’s radical anti-gun record.”
And now, Obama and the DNC have opened a new front in their assault on your First Amendment rights by calling on their followers to contact these station managers to demand that the stations not run NRA-PVF’s ads.
NRA stands behind the accuracy of these ads, and NRA attorneys have responded to the Obama campaign’s despicable and abusive attempt to trample on the First Amendment by sending a thorough rebuttal to station managers. This rebuttal clearly and conclusively refutes the Obama campaign’s fallacious claims that the ads are inaccurate.
The NRA has set up a Web site detailing its position on Obama at www.gunbanobama.com.
Dirty politics from Camp Obama
Earlier this week, I wrote about the dirty tricks campaign against journalist Amir Taheri following his revelation that, in a private meeting in Iraq last July with Iraqi leaders, Barack Obama tried to persuade them to delay the agreement being hammered out with the US government on a draw-down of the American military presence. According to this account, which quoted Iraq’s foreign minister Hoshya Zebari (pictured), Obama had thus privately sought to undermine an American government foreign policy initiative – an explosive revelation. Taheri subsequently dismissed as tendentious Camp Obama’s response which he said deliberately confused two separate agreements under discussion; and he also revealed that, following publication of his story in the New York Post, he had been subjected to death threats, menacing calls about his tax status and passport, and a cyber-attack which disabled two of his email accounts.
Then Camp Obama tried another tactic. It told Jake Tapper of ABC News that Obama’s July meeting in Iraq…
Welcome To Camp Obama
Election ‘08: Voters coast-to-coast are receiving e-mails from the Obama campaign encouraging them to sign up to learn pre-election agitation tactics at “Camp Obama.” Red kerchiefs, anyone?
When readers first alerted us to the camps, we thought it might be another hoax that migrated into inboxes. But it’s for real.
The unsolicited pitch goes like this: “Camp Obama attendees will receive real world organizing experience that will have a direct impact on this election. Graduates of Camp Obama will go on to become Deputy Field Organizers who will lead this campaign to victory in crucial battleground states around the country.”
The letter continues, “By participating in Camp Obama you’ll get the kind of experience that Barack got as a community organizer on the South Side of Chicago, where he learned that real change happens from the bottom up.”
[...]
…a trainer at Obama headquarters in Chicago is seen speaking next to a wipe board with the words “Saul Alinsky” scrawled across it.
Alinsky is the late Chicago socialist and street agitator who is considered the father of community organizing.
[...]
Obama calls his Alinskyite experience “the best education I ever had.”
“Be absolutely ruthless,” adds Camp Obama director Jocelyn Woodards, who leads the intensive two-day training course for campers in Chicago.
In the Alinsky model, organizing is code for agitating. For revolution. He had no patience for liberals who merely talked of change.

You Tube pulls a popular anti-Democrat video off the web (updated)
You Tube and Warner Music Group today pulled a highly popular video that very succinctly and clearly spelled out the roots of the current economic crisis.
The 9:59 video entitled “Burning Down the House: What Caused Our Economic Crisis” played four different songs under a fast moving video sequence that very clearly tied Democrats like Chris Dodd, Franklin Raines, Jim Johnson and Barack Obama to policies and corruption related to Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. It cleverly showed how the “affordable mortgage” programs sent an economic virus through the entire economy and showed Republican efforts to intervene and regulate being blocked.
For Obama and all congressional Democrats, it was a devastating video.
The video had almost a perfect viewer rating and had been viewed some 1.2 million times according to the You Tube counters. Sometime around 3:45 EDT the video disappeared with the banner saying “This Video is no longer available due to a copywrite claim by Warner Music Group.”
This sounds to me a lot like another front in this war for the country.

It really does seem that the more evil a movement is, the more likely it is to enlist children in its cause. (Well, they really do make beautiful little human shields.) In the above video, 22 young, impressionable victims of misguided parents are singing a song in homage to Barack Obama as if he’s a god . . . or an extremely good imposter.
Interestingly, the way the story behind this has developed provides an excellent example of how leftists have absolutely no courage of their convictions. The Drudge Report had linked up to the video on Tuesday (9/30), giving it exposure to millions of ears, including many unsympathetic ones. Thus, some of those who responded to it in the YouTube comment section entered negative responses. So, lo and behold, what did these activist-minded leftists do? They turned the original version into a private video, meaning, only those they invite may now view it (here is the YouTube page of the original poster). Fortunately (or unfortunately – no exposure is almost always worse than criticism), though, other Web users had already posted it, which is why it’s still available.
This kind of cowardice epitomizes leftists. This is reminiscent of when a public official, bureaucrat, college president, school principal or someone else will advocate politically-correct lunacy and then run for the hills when asked to defend his actions. This happens all the time, and it often comes to light on the cable news show the O”Reilly Factor. It’s utterly amazing how often Bill O’Reilly has asked such people to appear, only to find himself engaging in a media game of hide-and-go-seek. And don’t tell me me it’s because O’Reilly is a pit bull. I disagree with him on many issues and he’d find many of my positions anathema. Yet, even if I knew I was in for a tough interview, I’d jump at the chance to appear on his show. After all, isn’t spreading the Truth the whole idea?
Then again, an astute person might just suspect that for leftists, it really isn’t. Look, making it onto the Drudge Report – which, last I heard, got 16 millions hits a day – is big time. There aren’t too many better ways to get your message out. And wasn’t that the video creators’ goal? At the end of the work, after all, they flash a get-out-the-vote message on the screen. Thus, they should have been tickled pink that their video, which otherwise would have languished in anonymity, was receiving major media exposure (Hannity & Colmes picked up on it as well).
So what was the problem? Did they really think you could create something such as this and not have to endure the slings and arrows of criticism? Were their wittle feelings hurt? It’s pathetic; they got their day in the sun and then ran for the shade. Perhaps it’s understandable, however. There are certain types of organisms that only flourish in dark, cold places, you know.
This phenomenon brings to light a number of things about the creatures called leftists. First, you have to wonder if they really believe that what they say is true. I mean really believe, deep down, through and through. People who believe they speak Truth have courage of their convictions. Their attitude is: Bring it on! I’m fighting for something far greater than myself, something worth enduring criticism for, sacrificing for – and maybe even dying for. I’ll brave the salvos at the front lines because, even if I take flak, the greater good is advanced.
As for me, I don’t have to wonder. I know that leftists don’t even believe in Truth, let alone think that what they disgorge happens to be it. This is one of the reasons they have authored hate-speech laws all over the western world and speech codes in colleges and workplaces. Oh, they may say their goal is to protect others from offensive and hurtful speech, and, admittedly, man’s nature is complex and people often have multiple motivations. Yet there is another reason. It’s not so much that they find politically-incorrect dissent offensive; it’s just that they don’t happen to like it. It makes them angry and uncomfortable, and for good reason.
Leftists’ beliefs are wrong.
Thus, they can’t defend them against the light of Truth, so they must use a different tactic. This is to simply stop the other side from leveling criticisms they can’t refute. If you can’t win the debate, stop the debate. Then you don’t have to hear those rationalization-shattering Truths, those horrible and hoary things that make you angry and uncomfortable because they nudge you toward a question. Can it really be the case that the world view that has lent my life meaning and happiness is an illusion? Am I living a lie? Ah, no, we can’t be bothered with facts; we have fantasies. Muzzle that man!
This is why leftists, like so many other emotion-driven, self-deceived deceivers before them, use rhetoric, not reason; feelings, not fundamentals. Take the video, for instance. It’s nothing more than empty slogans – we’re going to change the world; Obama will lead ‘em; yes, yes, we can, can – delivered in a very stylish way, much like the Obama campaign itself. Where’s the beef? What tangible policies justify this passion?
If you would say this is simply a video, something akin to a pep talk, I don’t disagree. My point is that emotion without reason is dangerous. Passion is invaluable, but it must be directed toward a just and good end; thus, an emotional appeal must have as its underpinnings a sound philosophical foundation that is expressed somewhere. Otherwise it may be immoral.
In other words, sing about fighting the darkness and rally the troops, but not before explaining what the darkness is and why it must be vanquished. If this cannot be done, then an honest person must wonder what he really is for and against. Perhaps he has become an enemy of the light.
I also don’t say that enlisting children in a cause is always wrong, as that would be intellectually sloppy. After all, some would ask how having children recite prayers they don’t understand is any different from having them sing about political matters of which they’re ignorant. As to this, someone on the Internet did ask if this was any worse than what happened in the Christian “Kids On Fire School of Ministry.” Yet there is a tremendous difference.
The kind of reverence displayed in the Obama Youth video should be reserved for God. Sure, we may disagree with a given religious group’s theology, but they’re not exalting a mortal to godlike status. You may argue that the group’s conception of God is errant (and, yes, such errancy can cause other problems), you may say God doesn’t exist, but for certain is that a human is not a god. We can admire others, but we tread a very dangerous path when we deify them. It was wrong when ancient emperors did it, when it was done with Hitler and Mussolini (here is a version of the video in which its imagery is juxtaposed with something similar from dictator Kim Jong Il’s North Korea), and it’s wrong when we do it.
Maybe this partially explains why the video’s creators now deny the public access to it. Perhaps on some level they know it’s not something of which to be proud. Now they just need to re-examine their own beliefs. After all, how should you characterize your reformist program when you run and hide as soon as it’s challenged? Would you really call it “change you can believe in”?

Obamanomics: To those of us who can still tell the difference between a tax cut and a government handout, the Democratic plan for “relief” looks more like a blueprint for dependency.
In the first presidential debate, Barack Obama repeated a claim he has made many a time — that his economic plan would cut taxes for “95% of working families.” But is this really so? Yes, more or less, but only if you accept Obama’s definition of a tax cut. And doing that may force you to leave your common-sense zone.
First of all, “working families” does not include all households. Throw in singles, retirees, students and the unemployed, and the share getting some tax-related benefit is a good deal less. The Tax Policy Center, a group affiliated with the center-left Brookings Institution and Urban Institute, says only about 80% of households would get a cut.
Then there’s the difference, not acknowledged by the Obama camp, between a real tax cut and the type of “tax relief” that looks suspiciously like welfare. A true tax “cut” is a reduction in the taxes you’re paying. In contrast, much of the “relief” in Obama’s plan consists of “refundable credit” — payments you get even if you owe no taxes at all.

Is your head spinning from all the doom and gloom being blasted from the media and Congress day and night about impending financial disaster? Mine is, and frankly, I sometimes wonder how much of the financial picture is accurate and how much is manufactured in order to get a Democrat elected. One has to ponder about the timing of all of this bad news.
Why the crescendo of economic collapse right before the election? Why didn’t the media and congress act just as concerned some time ago or wait until sometime after the election to go into crisis mode? The timing of the current financial crisis seems too planned and calculating to be just a coincidence. Polls show that people’s number one concern right now is the economy and that for the most part, voters believe Democrats are somewhat more likely to help with the economy. Could it be that the liberal media and those in Congress, knowing that, is blaring the bad economic news from the rooftops in order to manipulate voters into voting for a Democrat? If so, it won’t be the first time.

Opposition to the $700 billion Wall Street bailout is the conservatives’ path toward winning control of Congress in the 2010 elections, Richard A. Viguerie, Chairman of ConservativeHQ.com, said.
Viguerie added: “The American people have recognized the bailout for what it is – an attempt by the economic and political elite to extort money and power at the expense of the American taxpayer and of future generations. Many of the bailout supporters will get away with it this year simply because it’s too late for someone to run against them. But wait ’til the next election.
“As I’ve noted before, the Panama Canal Treaty in 1977 dramatically changed the face of American politics, with 21 of the Senate’s treaty supporters going down to defeat in the next two elections and only one Treaty opponent losing.

Greetings from the Vast Gun Clingin’ Jingoistic Politically Incorrect SUV Drivin’ Guerilla Attack Machine.
We got in yesterday afternoon from Lake City, Colorado where we spent several days and had the pleasure of visiting our daughter and all five of our grand children as well as our two great grand children. The main event was attending our oldest grandson’s wedding. It was an outdoor wedding with lots of good food. One of the dishes served at the rehearsal dinner was a roast pig which was prepared by our son-in-law. It was cooked underground for 26 hours and then placed on a large smoker for several more hours. It was exceptionally good. Our grandson married a really beautiful young lady who likes to hunt and fish. She is a real keeper.
Other than a few hours last Sunday, when I managed to watch the Broncos and the Cowboys both lose, we did not watch any television. But when we got to Hobbs, New Mexico and turned on FOX News, it was like watching a repeat of what we were watching before we left on our trip. Isn’t it nice to know that our Senate and House of Representatives never changes. They manage to maintain the same degree of incompetency regardless of the passing of time. People are always talking about change. Wouldn’t it be refreshing to see our elected national officials begin to place the welfare of our country and the American citizen ahead of their own personal interest? I heard a caller on a talk radio show suggest that perhaps we should elect nothing but illegal aliens to the House and Senate and that would make President Bush’s statement that “They are just here to do jobs that Americans won’t do” a one hundred percent true statement.
I am almost to the point of depending upon others to tell me what idiotic things are said and done by Senate Majority Leader, Harry Reid. It is almost impossible for me to watch and listen to this self centered bozo without being overcome by an uncontrollable urge to choke the crap out of him. But that feeling is rapidly offset by the same feelings toward House Speaker, Nancy Pelosi. One would almost wish for Harry to either move to California or Nancy to move to Nevada so that the two leading mutts could both live in and represent that particular state and set a whole new standard for incompetency.
I see that there has been precious little progress made on this bail out of FannieMae and FreddieMac. I am still at a bit of a loss as to why American taxpayers are going to be stuck with the tab for incredibly stupid lending and borrowing practices of these two government run programs. Then both houses of Congress are working on a plan to pour $700 billion dollars (for those of you who reside in the People’s Republic of San Francisco, that is a 7 followed by 11 zeros) into these two incompetent entities. Then they tell us that this will be closely monitored by the same people who were monitoring it from the start. I am beginning to form the opinion that our government is being managed by people who have the management and oversight skills of drunken marmosets.
Do you ever get the idea that perhaps we are being lied to at every turn? I heard this morning that the Senate version of this bail out has a couple of pork amendments attached. I did not catch exactly what they were but I must question any amendments which have nothing to do with the economy being attached to the bill. Of course I have over the past couple of days watched and listened to successful businessmen and economy experts tell us that the whole bail out legislation is not needed.
And I am still asking myself a couple of questions when I hear people tell us that these poor home owners who have been the “VICTIMS” of foreclosure are out all these large sums of money. Let me see if I understand this correctly:
B - builds the home which is overpriced.
C - borrows money to purchase the overpriced home and knows from the start that he cannot make the payments..
A - loans C the money, knowing full well that C cannot possibly make the payments, but the money is actually given to B with A knowing full well that the home is overpriced to begin with.
B - has his money and is plenty happy and is out of the picture.
C - has the overpriced house and the debt and he is happy for a very short while until he realizes that he cannot make the payments to A.
A - holds the mortgage and is happy for a short while until he realizes that C cannot possibly make the payments to repay the money which was given to B.
SO, A - takes possession of the overpriced home after repossessing it from C.
The overpriced home which was put up as collateral is now in the possession of A.
Which means that A-has the overpriced house; B - has his money; C - has no overpriced house and no payments.
Why then, can’t A - price the house reasonably, sell it, and perhaps recuperate some of their loss
Please tell me how this all means that the rest of the American people have to come up with $700 BIllion dollars to bail out people who have made horrible choices and didn’t check with the rest of us prior to the deal being made?
While on our trip, I had the occasion to watch my two youngest grandsons, 11 and 9, go head to head in a hotly contested game of Monopoly. Of course they adjusted the rules a bit as it suited them. They really didn’t bother with houses or hotels but charged the rent as if the houses or hotels were on the property. If one of them held one piece of a particular property, they charged rent as if it held one house; if they held two pieces of the same color property the rent was charged as if it held two houses; and if they held the third piece of the same color property then you had to pay rent as if it held a hotel. There was the odd argument or so and the oldest one let the youngest one slide on the rent on a couple of occasions. His kindness was repaid by the youngest one demanding his rent immediately. The oldest got into a little financial bind and had to mortgage all of his property and had the ill fortune to land on one of the red pieces of property and the rent was somewhere around $900 and he only had about $500. So the youngest one announced in a rather loud voice that the game was over. He began to dance around the room in a manner reminiscent of T.O. scoring a touchdown.
The thought crossed my mind that I would trust the financial judgement of my youngest grandson ahead of the CEO of either FreddieMac or FannieMae. A sad commentary on our times. Of course about thirty minutes later the oldest one took his revenge by winning the best two out of three games in air hockey.
What really steams my clams is the fact that none of this was made public until it was too late. I recall hearing several conservatives on the radio and TV make mention several years back that this whole home mortgage business was headed for a huge fall. Seems like our elected officials held this information back. What should we do? I would suggest for starters, have the FBI and IRS do a thorough investigation and prosecute the devil out of ANYONE who violated the law, regardless of his/her position.
After we got home yesterday afternoon, our telephone rang and upon answering the phone we were treated to a recorded message by T. Boone Pickins telling us of the advantages of wind power. As if we were not subjected to enough T.Boone every day on television. It brought to mind that just about two hours prior to T.Boone honoring us with a recorded message, we had passed 5 or 6 pretty large wind farms between Big Spring and San Angelo. One of them had approximately 40 wind turbines and not one of them was turning. Ah, but you are saying, perhaps the wind was not blowing hard enough. But right across U.S. Highway 87 from the completely idle wind farm was another of about the same size and 4 of them were in motion. 4 out of 40 isn’t too good in my books. We passed several more ranging in size from 20 to 40 turbines and only a very few were actually in use.
I guess that the one good thing about them not moving is that whooping cranes, sand hill cranes and geese will be able to make their migratory flights in a greater degree of safety. At least that is what the Eco-terrorists tell us. I also read a piece in our local liberal rag a week or so back where the T. Boone Pickens wind energy plan was being supported by the Executive Director of the ” West Texas Wind Energy Consortium.” You think this guy might have a bit of a slanted view?
Our local paper this morning ran a story of three more FLDS men who had surrendered pursuant to indictments handed out by a Schleicher County Grand Jury. This brings the total to eight with a ninth man still at large. The guys in the latest arrest were Lehi Barlow Jeffs; Abram Harker Jeffs; and Keith William Dutson. All were charged with sexual abuse of a child and the 2 Jeffs were charged with bigamy. Seems to me that the names of Jeffs and Jessop are pretty common with the FLDS sect.
N.Y. Congressman Charles Rangel wrote an open letter to New Yorkers saying that he has done nothing wrong and is the target of a “GOP Guerrilla War.” So that is why I included “Guerrilla” at the first of the letter. If it is something which makes Charles Rangel unhappy, then count me in.
Last week I heard an audio clip from a speech given by Barack Hussein Obama,who the liberals/socialists believe to be the “World’s most articulate and intelligent human being.” In this speech he went on as to how he was going to pour additional funds into investment in public education. Now if you weren’t scared already, that should push you over the edge. After the wedding this week I spoke with a young lady who is a college student at Western Colorado in Gunnison,CO. She is majoring in history and wants to be a history teacher. In our conversation she brought up the fact that history as is being taught in public schools today is a seriously watered down product with lots of important aspects of our nation’s history being eliminated in the spirit of political correctness.
A couple of years back I looked at an American History text book which was the property of our neighbor’s daughter who was a middle school student. I looked at the section addressing the Civil War and there were only about 7 pages dedicated to the Civil War and I saw Robert E. Lee’s name mentioned once. Perhaps we can get Senator Joseph Biden to improve our history curriculum since he seems to have a firm grasp on history. President Franklin D. Roosevelt? On TV? Stock Market Crash?
While driving through New Mexico, I heard a commercial for N.M. Congressman Steve Pearce who is running for the U.S. Senate to replace retiring Senator Pete Dominici. In this particular commercial, Steve Pearce said that his opponent was “Breathtakingly Liberal”. I liked that and thought that it sounded like something which probably at some point in time was said by William F. Buckley. I watched Mr. Buckley on one show several years back and he made a statement about a particular subject and some idiot asked him if he really believed he was correct and Mr. Buckley’s reply was that he not only thought he was correct but that he believed himself to be “Fastidiously Correct”. Do I ever miss William F. Buckley.
I saw some article in a magazine section of the Denver Post and it was advertising the fact that tomorrow on one of the daytime talk shows and later on in the evening, we would be treated to in depth interviews with “L.L.Cool J.” I don’t know about the rest of you but I am pretty well caught up in the excitement of this possibility. I am still wondering what ever happened to Li’l Wayne, Li’l Kim, and Li’l Bow Wow? I am also a bit concerned about not having any recent reports on Hobbs, New Mexico’s favorite son, Freddie “Big Baby” Heckard. Us RAP fans get caught up in the excitement of these multi-talented folks.
While I was in Hobbs, NM for a short visit I was able to make contact with several old friends and of course we discussed a little politics and pretty well reached the same conclusion and it was this:
We cannot afford to elect a President who wants to “Open a dialog” with people who have our total destruction as their primary goal. And for any liberals/socialists who might perchance read this, I am speaking of Barack Hussein Obama. This guy is a pure con-man from the word go. To me, he would look more at home on a Houston street corner dealing Three-Card-Monte than he would sitting in the oval office. Of course yesterday there were several reports on this ACORN group who were picking up voters in Ohio and getting them registered to early vote before the registration could be checked out. Who was there attorney at one time? Why, none other than Barack Hussein Obama. The reports said that they were registering under the names of movie stars, cartoon characters and historical figures. Apparently in Ohio a person does not have to produce a photo I.D. to register. I can assure you that when we moved to Texas and wanted to change our voter registration we first had to obtain a valid Texas Driver’s License. And on voting day if you do not have your voter registration card, you must produce a photo I.D. in order to cast a regular ballot. If the voter has neither, they may fill out a provisional ballot and it is turned in separately from all the other ballots and the vote is not counted until the information is verified.
I did come to the realization that Barack Hussein Obama did share one common like. And that is we both are big supporters of Marx. Obama subscribes to the teachings of Karl while my personal preference is Harpo.
People, we cannot afford during this critical time to have this Chicago socialist holding the most powerful position on the planet. Please get your friends out to vote and please everyone put aside any personal differences you might have with John McCain and vote for him in November.

I have spent a good part of today calling and e-mailing my Senators and Congressman and demanding that if they see fit to pass this, in my opinion unnecessary, bail out legislation, that there should not be ANY amendments which do not directly deal with the problem. I have told them that I had rather not see the legislation passed to begin with but perhaps I was not in possession of all the information. I also told them that I would like to hear just exactly HOW this legislation is going to solve the problem.
Glad to be back home.
