I think this is kinda what U are talking about b. http://www.swamppolitics.com/news/politics/blog/2008/10/antiobama_sign_in_maine_draws.html Anti-Obama sign in Maine draws stares --copy-- Horr has erected a 15-foot tall sign with paintings that depict Sen. John McCain as a young Navy pilot and Obama in the turban and robe he briefly donned during his 2006 visit to Kenya. The sign points out that McCain has military experience and Obama doesn't. But I'm guessing that even if Obama had served in the military, Horr might have still found a pretext for this sign. The Associated Press report indicates that people driving by are slowing down to look at Horr's sign --snip--The sign illustrates the truth- Seems that Comrade Obama's socialist can't take it---snip-- The resident “experts” at Free Republic are pronouncing this a photoshopped fake. ------ [Geeska Afrika caption:] U.S. Senator Barack Obama, right, is dressed as a Somali Elder by Sheikh Mahmed Hassan, left, during his visit to Wajir, a rural area in northeastern Kenya, near the borders with Somalia and Ethiopia. The area is at the epicenter of a severe drought that has hit the Horn of Africa region, after erratic and insufficient rains during the April-June season So it isn’t a faked photograph after all. Hmmmm. http://sweetness-light.com/archive/obama-wore-muslim-gear-during-kenya-trip -----end c--- The pics are real, and while the one of O is in Muslim garb, he is getting flack for it, Saying he is racist. And tried to shame the H. Clinton offices when they first discovered the photo. Facts BB I was just snooping around the sweetness-light link. Very interesting. It's anti-Obama. |

Hi Winx: I posted the second site (that U just snooped around) to show where the pics came from and they were no photo shopped. Yes, it appears so. However, did you see the first link? http://www.swamppolitics.com/news/politics/blog/2008/10/antiobama_sign_in_maine_draws.html which I posted that carried news of 15 ft sign? If U click onto homepage, think it shows anti-MC. Nice to follow other places and get others input.BB |

now to find time to read it huh?? I saw where the audio is over 7 hrs long.
The book "audacity of hope" by O I looked into... http://www.nytimes.com/2006/10/17/books/17kaku.html ---copy-- Mr. Obama writes that “conservatives — and Bill Clinton — were right about welfare as it was previously structured: By detaching income from work and by making no demands on welfare recipients other than a tolerance for intrusive bureaucracy and an assurance that no man lived in the same house as the mother of his children, the old A.F.D.C. program sapped people of their initiative and eroded their self respect.” He uses the Bush administration’s tough language to talk about national security in the age of terrorism (“if we have to go it alone, the American people stand ready to pay any price and bear any burden to protect our country”) but adds, crucially, that “once we get beyond matters of self-defense,” he is “convinced that it will almost always be in our strategic interest to act multilaterally rather than unilaterally when we use force around the world.” He assails President Bush for waging an unnecessary and misguided war in Iraq and for promoting an “Ownership Society” that “magnifies the uneven risks and rewards of today’s winner-take-all economy.” Yet he also takes the Democrats to task for becoming “the party of reaction”: “In reaction to a war that is ill-conceived, we appear suspicious of all military action. In reaction to those who proclaim the market can cure all ills, we resist efforts to use market principles to tackle pressing problems. In reaction to religious overreach, we equate tolerance with secularism and forfeit the moral language that would help infuse our policies with a larger meaning. We lose elections and hope for the courts to foil Republican plans. We lose the courts and wait for a White House scandal.” ---end c-- But, I read quite a few pages off of http://www.newsweek.com/id/128633/page/1 CAMPAIGN 2008 When Barry Became Barack --snip--His Indonesian stepfather, an unsentimental man with a more practical view of the world, counseled the boy that the demands of the needy had no end; it was best to be strong because "men take advantage of weakness in other men." ---end copy-- This is the same man who he wrote the 2nd book about Dreams from My Father ?? This surprises me then, seems to idolize him, and yet he would adhere to his beliefs on the poor? Regards, BB |
