Palin To LAT: Release The Tape
BOWLING GREEN, OH - Sarah Palin joined her running mate's attacks against Barack Obama and the media Wednesday, suggesting the Los Angeles Times is withholding a videotape that shows Obama watching as a former Palestinian Liberation Organization spokesman bashed Israel.
Palin departed from her stump speech to talk about Obama's "assortment of friends from Chicago." She described Rashid Khalidi, the former PLO spokesman, as "another radical professor from the neighborhood who spent a lot of time with Barack Obama going back several years." She said Obama was at a party for Khalidi in 2003, when he described Israel as the perpetrator of terrorism.
But she saved her hardest criticism for the newspaper that currently holds the tape, saying they was refusing to release it to aid Obama.
"It must be nice for a candidate to have major news organizations looking after his best interests like that," Palin said. "In this case, we have a newspaper willing to throw aside even the public's right to know in order to protect a candidate that its own editorial board has endorsed. And if there's a Pulitzer Prize category for excelling in cow-towing, then the L.A. Times, you're winning."
Palin's comments echoed criticism John McCain has voiced in recent days. The Los Angeles Times has said they are not producing the tape because it was given to the newspaper with the condition that it not be released. But the paper documented the substance on the tape in an April 2008 article.
The Alaska governor said the newspaper could restore its credibility by producing the tape.
After the jump, Joe the Plumber makes an appearance on the stump with Palin.
A surprise appearance from "Joe the Plumber" got the Bowling Green State University crowd the most excited.
"He's a fellow Alaskan, and he's a fellow military man who has served our country proudly," she said. "I'd like you to meet him. Please welcome Joe the Plumber!"
Joe Wurzelbacher was introduced as a special guest midway through Palin's speech, to a roaring ovation. A day after he campaigned on his own - and received criticism for agreeing with comments suggesting Obama's election would mean "death to Israel" - Wurzelbacher stood silently by Palin's side through the rest of her remarks, dressed in jeans and a checkered work shirt.
"All the pictures I've seen of him, I knew I'd like him, wearing his Carhartts and steel-toed boots," she said.
Wurzelbacher, who was never introduced by his real name, served as a prop to Palin's continued critique of Obama's tax plans. She suggested Obama would raise taxes on small businesses, stifling growth and making it more difficult for small outfits to hire new people and create jobs.
Palin said voters identify with Wurzelbacher, who asked Obama a question at his tax plan at a rally earlier this month. He officially endorsed McCain earlier this week.
"So Joe merely asked our opponent a simple, straightforward question, and he spoke for a lot of Americans," she said. "And the Obama campaign did not appreciate that. And since then, they've been investigating and attacking our friend Joe the Plumber."

This is truly the most retarded campaign in history. The sooner they are out of the public domain, the better for the country. Barack is utterly destroying McSlime in the state polls released today. For good, OBVIOUS reason.
For somebody who holds the modern American equivalent of fascist rallies, this talk of instant denunciation, especially where somebody doesn't have the podium, is interesting.
Why is Palin refusing to release her medical records? Is she hiding something?
Why is Palin refusing to release her medical records? Is she hiding something?
Palin talks about the LAT "could restore its credibility"?!?
How on earth does Sarah Palin get away with talking about credibility? How does she think she is going to restore her's?
Abuse of power?
Refusing to cooperate with a legal legislative inquiry after promising she would?
Lying about the $150,000 wardrobe purchased for her? Distributing cash payments from collective ownership of energy in Alaska while ranting about "socialism" and "redistribution"? Taking thousands of tax dollars as "travel" payments for staying in her own home (and failing to declare it on her taxes)?
Palling around with Alaskan separatists?
Accusing some parts of the country of not being "pro-American"?
Claiming that God wanted to make sure her pipeline was approved?
Trying to ban books and fire librarians?
Charging rape victims for their forensic examination kits?
Denying the reality of manmade global warming?
Attempting to hide thousands of emails about government business by using outside email accounts?
Not knowing about the job of Vice-President?
"Bush Doctrine - In what sense Charlie"?
"Whack-job"? "Diva"?
"I read all of them"?
Having the witchcraft removed from her?
The list go on and on...
Yeah, she's the perfect arbiter of credibility, isn't she?
What a bozo! She has been hiding from the Troopergate investigators and the press for months.
Palin will release her medical records as soon as Obama releases his BIRTH CERTIICATE. Just why is it under lock and key? I had to show my birth certificate to get a passpost but Obama gets to run for the Presidency without making it public.
She is the same woman who was found guilty of ethics violations by independent commission in Alaska. I betcha she is clueless about everything.
Newsflash......it looks like Obama had ayers write his book "dreams of my father".
This is not a joke and you will not find the information on the nightly news. Do a little research dems and it will come to light. I love liberals...they are so into the truth and fact finding util it can hurt the leader of the lemmings. you are tryuely a joke amoung Americans
Hey Goofballs! Isn't it the media's JOB (three letter word) to bring to public attention all RELEVANT facts in an election? On BOTH sides? Release the frickin' tape! The voters have a right to see what's on it.
"beau martin",
You must be one of the republicans taking pride in ignorance and stupidity. The certificate was given to media long time back. Do a simple search on the internet and you will find a good scan of his birth certificate.

terje, everything you posted about Palin is a LIE. But then lemmings like you are either too dumb or too lazy (probably both) to investigate the truth.
Looks like Ayers wrote Obama's book. You know the book that the media referred to as the "finest writing from a politician ever". Everywhere you turn Obama gets caught in a lie and his hitler youth following slams anyone that brings this stuff up. Look at yourselves liberals...winning this election is not worth alienating everything you believe in. Get away from the mainstream media and do some real research on this book and his birth certificate,this guy is making a real fool out of you!!!

Would any of the astro-turf @sshats covering for the Messiah like to bet $1000 on the outcome of the election? I can't get on Intrade, and would love to profit economically from your blind belief in the no resume, no birth certificate, no medical records, no transcript, no test score, Marxist, terrorist loving, racist, product of the Chicago Machine. Anyone?
Obama voters.... I am not bashing you, I am bashing what is unfolding before our eyes. The national media is running this campaign because they think you are too stupid to ever resarch obama and that you will believe what they have been feeding you.
FACT: Obama's bith records in Hawaii and Kenya have been sealed. Why?
Fact: There is growing and very significant evidence that Bill Ayers wrote Obama's famous book, and yet the media won't touch this potential academic fraud. Why?
Fact: Obama has sealed everything from his college writings to his admissions paperwork. Why?
Fact: The LA Times has a significant piece of evidence that may show the true feelings of Obama and his relationship with Ayers and they refuse to release it and they have endorsed Obama. Why?
Fact: the media splashes the cost of Palin's wardrobe all over the headlines. Why?

Bombshell: McCain Group Funded Rashid Khalid
During the 1990s, while he served as chairman of the International Republican Institute (IRI), McCain distributed several grants to the Palestinian research center co-founded by Khalidi, including one worth half a million dollars.
A 1998 tax filing for the McCain-led group shows a $448,873 grant to Khalidi's Center for Palestine Research and Studies for work in the West Bank. (See grant number 5180, "West Bank: CPRS" on page 14 of this PDF.)
The relationship extends back as far as 1993, when John McCain joined IRI as chairman in January. Foreign Affairs noted in September of that year that IRI had helped fund several extensive studies in Palestine run by Khalidi's group, including over 30 public opinion polls and a study of "sociopolitical attitudes."
-------------------------
Palin needs to check with her master, McCain, about why he funded Khalidi.
Can the Diva of ethics violations tell us why is she so unethical.
New Ethics Complaint Filed Against Palin
The complaint against Governor Palin, alleges Misuse of Official Position: "Gov. Palin attempted to and in fact did use her official position for personal gain by securing unwarranted benefits for her daughters..." All the allegations contained in the complaint are related to state reimbursed travel.
The complaint was filed by Frank Gwartney, a retired lineman in Anchorage. "Palin ran on the platform of ethics, transparency and anti-corruption. I’m tired of the hypocrisy that exists in Government and people need to know the truth," said Gwartney.
Bristol, Piper and Willow, Palin’s daughters, accrued $32,629 in travel expenses while Palin’s husband Todd raked up $22,174 - all billed to the state for a total of $54,803.00.
"The Governor’s office has expended $54,803.00 in Alaska state dollars for family travel since December 2006," according to the Governor’s Administrative Services Director, Linda Perez. "The documentation related to family travel has changed and you have to keep in mind that the governor and her family are very popular," added Perez.
OBAMA HAS DONE MORE TO DIVIDE THIS NATION THAN ANYONE ELSE BEFORE HIM....PLEASE DO YOUR HOMEWORK AND VOTE ACCORDINGLY.
I love the way you guys fight back and forth with each other about these clowns running for presidente. You deserve what you get en novembre. Eat less America, ( fat pigs) put air in your tires and teach you children to speak spanish. listen to the the Obamasiah.
ever notice how these Obama people will not ever confront the truth. The only people that they worship more than Obama is Katie Couric and Charlie Gibson. Go figure
Sarah Palin is a liar and a bad mother. She endangered the life of her youngest child, yet stil says she respects life. She does not. She has shown that. Yet she still lies and hope that no one will do the research on her infamous plane trip.
Sarah Palin is a bad mother. Sarah Palin is a liar.
6 days to go and guess what......the campaign of evil is still throwing everything including the kitchen sink.....I hope these 6 days go by fast.....because both McCain and Palin deserve to be as far away from Washington as possible.......it's the economy stupid.....they deserve to lose by a landslide!!!!!!
NicaLMN
Repeat after me. O..BAM..A O...BAM...A
You are just Jealous because Palin is everything you are not
Nicos
you are a lemming and a joke, but thanks anyway for your post because the educated on this board need something to laugh at, and your existance gave it to us.
LOOKS LIKE OBAMA DIDN'T WRITE HIS BOOK "DREAMS OF MY FATHER".....i AM BLOWN AWAY BY THE POSSIBILTY THAT OBAMA ISN'T REALLY AN HONORABLE PERSON.
Is it true the Khalidi/Obama videotape shows Obama giving Khalidi the Arab affirmation kisses on both cheeks?
IS THERE EVEN ONE LIBERAL, JUST ONE, IN THIS COUNTRY THAT IS THE LEAST BIT SUSPICIOUS THAT OBAMA SEALED HIS BIRTH RECORDS IN KENYA AND HAWAII.
COME ON THERE MUST BE ONE.
You, or the McCain-Palin campaign if they published the remarks, misspelled kowtowing.
Ties to terrorists, foreign AND domestic Check
Fraudulent campaign donations Check
Fascist like attacks on critics with government resources Check
Promises of government checks if elected or BRIBES
Check
There's my definition of evil.
Is it true the Khalidi/Obama videotape shows Obama giving Khalidi the Arab affirmation kisses on both cheeks?
WHY NOT RELEASE THE BIRTH CERTIFICATE. IS THAT TOO MUCH OF A PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE
Is it true the Khalidi/Obama videotape shows Obama giving Khalidi the Arab affirmation kisses on both cheeks?
THE HITLER YOUTH HAD NOTHING AND I MEAN NOTHING ON THE LIBERAL OBAMA LEMMINGS OF THIS COUNTRY.
THE HITLER YOUTH HAD NOTHING AND I MEAN NOTHING ON THE LIBERAL OBAMA LEMMINGS OF THIS COUNTRY.
wait, this just in: palin accuses obama of being adolf hitler's illegal love child.
It's obvious that Palin is only a Puppet and a mouthpiece for McBush. I haven't heard anything of substance regarding policy from her. If she was supposed to supplement Bush oops I mean McCain (Sorry I confuse the 2 all the time)she's not adding much to a ticket that appears to be the same 'ole same 'ole. Mc-lame has been in Washington for 26 years and now all of a sudden has new ideas..I don't buy it.
LA Time needs to release the vedio. As an American it is our right to know what Khalidi and Obama saying in this tape.

Seem like Mcclain/Palin are getting scared about losing. Maybe they need to learn the truth and tell it like it is.
She is so busy trying to find dirt on Obama-she need to check to make sure that Mcclain is not involve before opening her mouth. She may not realize it she is killing her chances for 2012 also she have ambrassed the RNC to the hills. Mcclain don't care now because he know he won't b e able to run again anyway. Look like both of their world is falling down around them.

How is it that the fascist sympathizers here keep calling for Obama to release his birth certificate without realizing that John Mcrage was born in PANAMA. He is constitutionally ineligible to be president and his running mate is intellectually ineligible. Seriously get a life LOSERS. Here comes the flood- just not the one that end of days Sarah is praying for.

Palin is just showing what a derisive female dog she is. She disgusts me and I can't wait to vote so that she can go back to the frozen tundra she came from. This is pathetic and disgusting. My vote next Tuesday will be a referendum on negative campaigning and hatred that spews from Republicans and the Republican Party.

I am amazed at those who continually question Obama's birth certificate....his writing....his associations. The issues have been settled...the law suits dismissed and your time harping on these things is wasted. You have backed a loser and soon it will all be over and you can listen to Limbaugh and Hannity unmercifully bash a good man....John McCain...it's coming folks...and you will all pile on like right wing nutbags....which you are.
Okay, how low and ridiculous can the Palin McCain ticket go? Palin makes the excuses that she may not have the expertise or the education of her opponents but she was going to talk like plain folks (see vp dabate). Does this mean spreading rumors and gossip like a desperate house wife? Okay, so she calls Obama a socialist, yet as the governor of Alaska she doles out cash from oil revenues to the citizens of Alaska because her state does not have a state tax. Sounds like a redistribution of wealth? Sounds like taking money from the rich and giving it to the poor? Sounds SOCIALIST? Let's make governor Palin answer the tough questions? Face it, the republican party is desperate. This is no longer Ronald Reagan's party and their way of trickle down economics got our country into the economic mess we are in. The republican party is afraid of losing the gravy train they were on under George Bush. They will do anything and say anything to protect their way of life. Let's face it, Palin wants to come up and be a part of the Washington inner circle and spend more cash on clothes. She wants to have her children spend a few more days in New York taking in the sites at 1500.00 a day. Trips like this are on the taxpayer's dime. Let's all ROCK THE VOTE and ROCK IT FOR OBAMA?BIDEN. Throw the bums out!
Okay Steve, I read Jack Cahill's 'analysis. It is based essentially on similarities between Ayer's writing and Obama's writing, which is not really much of a foundation but still. He also asserts that Ayers, having already been published, helped Obama publish his first work because it 'would have been difficult for him to publish it otherwise.' Not particularly convincing either. Another compelling reason is Cahill's assertion that only someone who has worked on a boat would know the word 'ballast.' Ayers apparently was some kind of sailor and Obama, as we all know was in terrorist training school in Indonesia and then reciting the Quran in Chicago and never went on a boat. I was never in the navy or any marine employment either but I do know what ballast is.
Essentially, this accusation is as unabased as the book Obamanation. The idea was simply to spew filth about Obama without putting forth any facts and, most importantly, footnotes that prove those facts. Nobody took the accusations seriously when they came out and as a result, the lack of interest was predictably blamed on the 'liberal media bias' that didn't want to face up to 'facts' against their beloved Obama.
Please don't embarrasss Americans by your love of blind assertion a la Fox. It is not becoming and frankly, a point of ridicule for thinking people throughout the world.

So now we have the startling revelation that, "Obama pals out with the PLO". Of course this tidbit is released a week before election....being certain to do so without leaving enough time to check out the accusation. Do I get a whiff of Karl Rove passing by ? Tell 'ya what....I'll give 'ya two Ayers and three Khalidis for one secession from the United States. See what Todd thinks of the deal. And if that handsome young hunk refuses to become your son-in-law on November 5th does he get charged with statutory rape ? I betcha' he does. I can't wait until 2012 when you run on a program of disassociating yourself from "that wrinkled old white-haired guy". It'll be easy...you already have the wardrobe.
Palin can't compete with Obama's intelligence. Issues are secondary. I could give a crap if Obama was "watching" a PLO spokesman bashing Israel. Issues baby, issues...the issues that effect the average American! Undoubtedly, you don't have a clue what they are. I guess it's simply more simple to be stupid.

Let me get this straight - 1. Barack Hussein Obama suddenly decides to rush to HI; 2. The Governor of HI then suddenly orders her state to seal Obama's records re his birth. WHY!! Barack Hussein Obama is NOT who he says he is; and all you deaf, dumb, & blind fools are about to make him the Democrat National Socialist President! Truly beyond belief!
And on this url you will find Obama's birth certificate, coutesy of the liberal press:
http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/washington/2008/06/obama-birth.html
Maybe it’s because Palin lives in a closet. I teach at a university and I'm proud that there are people there with radically different views then my own. I consider myself a moderate, but there are people far to left and far to right of my own ideology. I listen; I attend their lecture and critique their points of view. The world of academia is full of people with diverse ideas that are radically opposed to each other which is inevitability is the bases for our own intellectual development. You would have thought Palin would have learned that while college hopping. But I guess her ignorance is only suppressed by her lack curiosity. Hmm, I guess that’s why she didn’t get a passport until last year. While we need to repel the ideas that run counter to the American spirit, I think need to understand them. After all it was a lack of understanding and information that left us under prepared for two wars we face today.
That said, Palin is trying to divide us. McCain is using her as a puppet to give a voice to the ignorant. Personally, I hope she runs in 2012. You might find enough ill-bred, hateful, angry individuals to fill a stadium, but I sincerely believe that majority of Americans while entertained by this Jerry Springer, my cousin is my father, side show in the end will not vote for such rubbish.
.
Palin is so concerned about radicals how about the video with her endorsing and promoting the AIP,she likes to throw around words like radical,terrorist yet she has no basis for a debate,she has to be the most clueless person I've ever seen,god help us if she somehow gets to the white house!

I can't believe how far John McCain has slipped. Either he's able to control Caribou Barbie or he isn't. After being a life long republican, I'm voting Obama. As far as chosing a vice president running mate John McCain chose poorly that's for "darn sure" wink...wink... She's out of control but will Alaska take her back?
You people are sick. You want the man's birth certificate well guess what it was released months ago.
Now can any of you explain Todd Palin and Sarah's connection to Alaskan Independence Party. I mean what greater form of treason and terrorism then the Vice Presidential candidate's connection to a group who wants to annex an entire state. As I can recall there was a war when some southern states had such ambitions. These people who Sarah supports and has supported up until last year hate America so much they don't want to be a part of this great country. Now please explain that or may be we should just take her word that she was just playing a good host to this treasonous group.
Watching Palin/McCain, I understand completely how Hitler came to power. If they are elected....God help America.
If you want real ties to terrorists, you ought to check out the pictures of McCain embracing his Viet Cong captor after a meeting on the MIAs. The same one where he lost his temper and knocked over the mother of a POW/MIA in her wheelchair. Or listen to the radio interviews he did for his captors in Viet Nam, in violation of the Military Code of Conduct. Or the fact that McCain donated money to Khalidi. The whole Republican campaign is a fiasco and mishmash of lies and innuendos.
Obama's birth records have been examined and validated by THREE non-partisan groups, not to mention the American government. However, McCain, having been born in Panama, which is not now nor has ever been, American territory is in a fragile place to be questioning the legality of Obama's birth.

Lying, dissembling, intimidating critics or questioners, "truth squads" threatening law abiding citizens under the cover authority, etc. Yeah, Obama is an open book.
I hope Palin runs in 2012. It will be amusing watching her fellow republicans take her apart. No one will have to worry about being "nice". The problem with this campaign is that the Democrats approach her with kidd gloves. The real Republican conservatives have done a much better job highlighting her considerable shortcomings then have any of the Democrats.
I can't believe what people are saying about Obama. I am truely scared for this country and if Obama is pres. I hope that these crazy right wing people don't do anything stupid! After reading these attacks on him I am positive that America has gone the wrong direction and we do need a change. Comparing Obama to the Hitler youth, DESCUSTING!!! Most Republican's claim to be religious and believe in Christ, read your Bible and pray. Jesus would never condone this kind of behavior. I am praying for this country and the worl for that matter. I don't believe any politician but Obama seems to be trying to bring people together and that is what we need. Remember, " United we stand and divided we fall." I just hope that after this election we will find a way to be the United States of America and the Divided States of America. Please people stop being so hateful. We are all in this together. America can't fail! Not now, not EVER!!!
I can't believe what people are saying about Obama. I am truely scared for this country and if Obama is pres. I hope that these crazy right wing people don't do anything stupid! After reading these attacks on him I am positive that America has gone the wrong direction and we do need a change. Comparing Obama to the Hitler youth, DESCUSTING!!! Most Republican's claim to be religious and believe in Christ, read your Bible and pray. Jesus would never condone this kind of behavior. I am praying for this country and the worl for that matter. I don't believe any politician but Obama seems to be trying to bring people together and that is what we need. Remember, " United we stand and divided we fall." I just hope that after this election we will find a way to be the United States of America instead of the Divided States of America. Please people stop being so hateful. We are all in this together. America can't fail! Not now, not EVER!!!

Clearly, Steve, sj, and in_awe are the same people. You must be brain-dead to take Palin seriously. Neo conservs blame the so-called lib media for caricature image of Palin. Give me a break she has never said anything that has substance and makes sense. She is a joke in her own right. The pitbull image she is going for makes her look ridiculous.
I can't wait until the bafoon-Palin and the corpse-McCain disappear into obscurity.
The entire campaign is such an embarrassing joke. This new issue is the last straw.
OBAMA 08
In-Awe, every single one of your idiotic queries are answered by typing in W I KP I D E I A and then O B A M A, moron!
McCain asked if there were tapes of him meeting with Neo Nazis it would be out there. Does that mean there have been such meetings, but not taping was permitted. Having watched and not just listened could you imagine what would have happened if he were president instead of Kennedy. With the utter disdained he frequently shows toward other, including his running mate, imagine the real impact he will have when dealing with other world leaders who are basically tired of American cowboy attitudes.
Bombshell: McCain Group Funded Rashid Khalid
During the 1990s, while he served as chairman of the International Republican Institute (IRI), McCain distributed several grants to the Palestinian research center co-founded by Khalidi, including one worth half a million dollars.
A 1998 tax filing for the McCain-led group shows a $448,873 grant to Khalidi's Center for Palestine Research and Studies for work in the West Bank. (See grant number 5180, "West Bank: CPRS" on page 14 of this PDF.)
The relationship extends back as far as 1993, when John McCain joined IRI as chairman in January. Foreign Affairs noted in September of that year that IRI had helped fund several extensive studies in Palestine run by Khalidi's group, including over 30 public opinion polls and a study of "sociopolitical attitudes."
How is it, this woman can remember this kind of crap and doesn't know what the Vice President of the United States does. This sure is nasty stuff for a so-called Christian.
I can't wait till she just goes away!!
This is such a silly accusation.
Khalidi, is an American.
He is a Professor at a US University.
Check out his name in Wikipedia.
Do some research. Dont listen to Palin or McCain and their kitchen sink dirty political attacks.
They are as desperate as Mrs. Dole.
McCain also has ties to Khalidi through a group that Khalidi helped found 15 years ago. The Center for Palestine Research and Studies has received more than $800,000 from the International Republican Institute that McCain chairs.
Where is the outrage over that? The Republicans are desperate and pathetic. And where was this information in the CNN piece about Palin's smears?
IT IS SUCH A SHAME TO WATCH A PARTY SO DESPERATE THAT IT STARTS ACTING LIKE NAME CALLING CHILDREN ON A PLAYGROUND. THE TOTAL HATE THAT COMES OUT OF THE REPUBLICAN'S IS SO APPALLING, WE SHOULD BE ASHAMED TO ALLOW THEM TO BE AN ORGANIZED PARTY. AT LEAST THIS PARTY WILL BE IN SHAMBLES AFTER THIS ELECTION.
When the Republicans lose this election this year, they only have themselves to blame. They have abused their power over the last 8 years.
The American Public has woken up. We DO NOT listen to their dirty political tricks. We have learned to do our own research and judge for ourselves who is telling the truth and who is the better candidates. We have learned that we must VOTE if we are to make a difference.
With this election, We the People have spoken!
Senator Obama must live in a very bad neighborhood. All his neighbors are apparently radicals.
Neither candidate is ideal, but the French premier told the Israelies he considers Obama to be an empty suit in regard to foreign affairs.
I believe if Obama wins and Democrats control Congress, we will reap the whirl wind and Republicans will become more popular before the next election.
Hillary and Palin might be running against each other in 2012.
For those of you who don't want to believe the Birth Certificate that has been shown is real, how about this: His Mother is/was a US Citizen. That makes him a US Citizen. Stop trying to use this as an excuse to not vote for Obama. We all know you don't want to vote for him, but at least be honest with yourself as to why. If it is only because you aren't sure he's a US Citizen, I just proved it to you, now you are cleared to vote for him.
All of the comment and concerns here are filled with great passion and applaud each and every one. Freedom of speech is what makes this country great, along with all of our other freedoms that we enjoy.
I think that however the country is missing a point. What difference does it make who Obama (or McCain for that matter) associate with. What business is it of ours? Have all of us only associated with 100% pure people? If you have please tell me what was Jesus like?
As for Obama’s records and documentation, come on give it up. The rhetoric coming out of the McCain camp to day is in my opinion the ranting of a loosing campaign and a tired old man and over ambitious simple Governor.
Tell you what, I am a Palestinian American Muslim who had enough of those Anti-Islam politicians who are making every effort to kiss Israeli behinds. The trouble that America is in right now IS because of unlimited and unsencered support for Israel that is making me wonder; who comes first? America or Israel? The natorious pro-Israel lobby, AIPAC, is giving it all they got to "demonize" Muslims in order to make it easier to go to a middle-eastern country like Iraq and kill 1.5 million innocent Muslim and ultimately, secure Israel. Both parties, republicans and democrats, are pledging their infinate support for what I consider the most racist country in the world, Israel. And thats not because we have much in common with Israel, but because of the power of the special-foreign-Interest pro-Israel lobby, AIPAC. I think "CHANGE" should not be limited to just the economy and the health care, but should also include a change in the foreign policy and limit the power of those lobbies in D.C. And if you want to support Israel, you should go run for a president there. NOTE: the PLO stands for Palestinian Liberation Organization, which its main goal to get the Palestinians their stollen rights, humanity and land and for those of you that want a glimpse of how is it there just look up the attrocities that have been commited against the Palestinian at the hands of the Extremist jews in Israel. Key word = GAZA.....Peace.

Someone needs to put this crazy bi*ch back in her cage. I will never vote Republican now or ever again. McCain has shown to what level people will stoop to in an effort to further their ambitions. Just plain tired of the RNC may they never win another seat or presidency ever!

Obama doesn't want the Los Angeles times to release the video tape of Obama praising Khalidi. Palestinian phone banks raised money for Obama. Obama has refused to disclose where about 300 million dollars of his donations have come from. Speculation is that it came from foreign countries. Muslim mosques have raised money for Obama. Obama spent TWENTY YEARS with with Jeremiah Wright's church, which gave a lifetime achievement award to Jew Hater Louis Farrakhan. Every Muslim leader supports Obama. But, in order to get elected, Obama assures American Jews that he supports Israel. I don't trust Obama. And, as the election approaches – and you consider Obama's economic plan ...
remember the wise words of Abraham Lincoln
* You cannot help the poor, by destroying the rich.
* You cannot strengthen the weak, by weakening the strong .
* You cannot bring about prosperity, by discouraging thrift.
* You cannot lift the wage earner up, by pulling the wage payer down.
* You cannot further the brotherhood of man, by inciting class hatred.
* You cannot build character and courage, by taking away men's
initiative and independence.
* You cannot help men permanently, by doing for them what they could
and should, do for themselves.

Why doesnt someone in the Republican party release anything? Why is it that Biden released his taxes from last year(by the way still waiting for Palins)Why is it that Biden released his medical records and why is it that we need to see Obamas birth certificate? Is it because he doesnt look American enough?
The tape is probably not even real - that is why the LAT is protecting itself by not showing contrived filth and giving in to Scary Palin. Have you seen the video of Obama and Palin on "Dancing With The Stars"? - Oh yeah! Like that ever truly happened!! I don't hear her demanding that be shown.
Palin didn't even know what the LA times was a few weeks ago. Go Sarah Puppet and McLame!
This republican campain and especially this woman makes me SICK !
I am so proud NOT to be an American and to live in a part of a world where the IQ has not dropped to dangerous levels. I have always felt uneasy when talking about countries like North Korea and nuclear weapons but actually the US is the biggest danger of this world. The thought of a woman so retarded and having the finger on the trigger of a nuclear arsenal is selected because of retarded neo-cons....others might call these fascists! Americas power has ended and such stupidity proves it every time.
All McCain and Palin have proven is that they excell in Bush-style nasty politics. McCain even fired his long-time political team and hired Bush's. That's a fact from Frontline. He has offered no new ideas, nothing positive, and no plans to help this country. His message is vote for me because the other guy is the devil. That worked for Bush and look where it took the country. The lesson is clear: dirty, nasty politicians don't bring positive results. I'd rather take the chance on Obama rather than on Bush 3.0. And, I voted for Nader in 2000 and '04. I hate both Republicans and Democrats, but this year, the stakes are too high to take the chance on another Bush in office.
It is quite obvious that McCain's supporters are just as hot headed as he is. Look at the profanity in the replies. Fact check, all candidates lie. All you bigots out there that are as upset as you are because you think of Obama as black, need to check yourslves because Obama is half black and half white. You might want to check your family tree, you might be related. Now wouldnt that be something, you spent all of your narrow-minded life hating someone who looks different than you do only to find out that your family tree is quite colorful. Obama has not divided this country, if anything he has united it. If you want to know who divided this country check out Fox News and listen to Rush Limbaugh and the other bigots in the media and then look in the mirrow. All of you clamoring for this to be released and that to be released, could your life stand to be opened to everyone? Dont give me that crap about you are not running for president either because unless you are a hermit, there is a public that you are in that doesnt know your hangups and associations. Just vote and let the chips fall where they may.
Senator John McCain has been making a lot of baseless accusations lately, but he is the one with the troubling past. McCain and Marylin Shannon — a 2008 McCain delegate and former vice chair of the Oregon Republican Party — both appeared at an August, 1993 fundraiser for the far right Oregon Citizens Alliance. McCain appeared against the advice of Mark Hatfield, a GOP senator from Oregon, who feared that the group’s extremist views would taint McCain.
Shannon, who attended this year’s Republican National Convention as a McCain delegate, spoke immediately before McCain and “praised the Grants Pass woman accused of shooting an abortion doctor in Wichita” earlier in the month, referring to her as a “fine lady.” When McCain spoke next, he said nothing about Shannon’s vile comments and delivered his speech as prepared.
Let's see if we give this idiot woman enough time
she will have Senator Obama having lunch with
Joe Stalin.
I cant wait till next Wednesday when Obama wins.
Just wish to say that Palin-McCain might have
won if they attacked the real culprit who in
eight years has ruined this country George W.
Bush and his tricky Dick Cheney.
Nothing new for the Republican party to blame
the "press" for their loss that lie is what
has made Rush Limbaugh wealthy,more to come
from these sore losers blaming the messengers.
The people questioning the birth cert are not keeping up with current events.
The fellow that made up the lies about "Barack is a Muslim" and the "has no birth certificate", et al said "I CHANGED MY MIND."
NOW he claims Obama is a COMMUNIST.
Why? He said 'I FEEL IT IN MY GUT.'
Andy Martin. Nut Job. It was on CNN (sigh.....)

Why you goofballs republicans talk about McCain's talk to the North Vietnamese when he was a POW. Why don't you talk about the Keating's 5 that MCain is involved. Yes, I was in Nam and we knew there what happened. I also worked for the Government cleaning up what McCain people did with the Savins and Loan banks, including Bush's brother. Why don't you talk about Palin's charges to the Alaska Government for her kids travel; her palling with the Alaska Independent Party; and palling with Washington biggies before she was nominated.

Everytime Palin opens her mouth she puts her foot in it. I pray that this woman never gets to the White House. And God forbid if someone lets her run for President. Oh! By the way Palin, Stop killing our Polar Bears.
This is funny coming from Palin...but anyways....who cares? Life is full of people from all over and the world has become a very small place, so it is not un common at all that you might know someone like an Ayers, or a Palin (Palin = Radical Right)...it’s how you conduct yourself and show leadership when there is none that determines who you are...not the people you happen to know. We all have friends we disagree with and that’s just fine......grow up America and choose Country first...not FEAR which is the only thing the Republicans seem to be able to offer...BTW...the Republican Party better start re-tooling now and Democrats better take notes of how the American people have risen to take back our government and our Country...if none of the above work out we will elect Nadar the next time around and declare the 2 party system a dead duck for our times.
God Bless America always!!!
Here we go AGAIN?
McCain and Palin and the Republicans are PATHETIC.
Im a Independent lifetime and will be voting OBAMA FOR SURE.
This campaign is HORRIBLE.
Sorry - listening to Palin is starting to be like stepping in S**t and not being able to get it off of you shoe. Ugh. Just go away
You know, Sarah Palin is just so sick - which women get totally.
Thank god for women!

How about the tape of governor Palin supporting this group:
Founder Of Group Palin Courted Professed "Hatred For The American Government"; Cursed "Damn Flag"
By Greg Sargent - September 2, 2008, 6:10PM
The founder of the Alaska Independence Party -- a group that has been courted over the years by Sarah Palin, and one her husband was a member of for roughly seven years -- once professed his "hatred for the American government" and cursed the American flag as a "damn flag."
The AIP founder, Joe Vogler, made the comments in 1991, in an interview that's now housed at the Oral History Program in the Rasmuson Library at the University of Alaska, Fairbanks.
"The fires of hell are frozen glaciers compared to my hatred for the American government," Vogler said in the interview, in which he talked extensively about his desire for Alaskan secession, the key goal of the AIP.
"And I won't be buried under their damn flag," Vogler continued in the interview, which also touched on his disappointment with the American judicial system. "I'll be buried in Dawson. And when Alaska is an independent nation they can bring my bones home."
At another point, Volger advocated renouncing allegiance to the United States. In the course of denouncing Federal regulation over land, he said:
"And then you get mad. And you say, the hell with them. And you renounce allegiance, and you pledge your efforts, your effects, your honor, your life to Alaska."
You can listen to audio of the relevant section of the Volger interview here. Bill Schneider, curator of oral history at the library, verified the authenticity of the interview and the quote to me a few moments ago.
Palin has courted the group over the years.
Three years after the controversial interview, in 1994, Palin attended the group's annual convention, according to witnesses who spoke to ABC News' Jake Tapper. The McCain campaign is disputing her presence there, but Tapper found two people to attest to it.
The McCain campaign today produced Palin's voting registration records, and said they proved she was never a member of the party.
But she has repeatedly reached out to the group. The McCain campaign has confirmed she visited the group's 2000 convention, and she addressed its convention this year, as an incumbent governor whose oath of office includes upholding the Constitution of the United States.
Palin's husband, Todd Palin, was a member of the party from 1995-2002 with a brief exception in 2000.
It's worth noting that Vogler isn't just some figure from ancient history. He is still being hailed on AIP's site this year, the same year Palin addressed the group's convention.
It's worth pondering how big a deal it would be if Obama had ever courted the support of a group whose head had said this kind of thing about America and her flag. Oh, wait...
When you are throwing everything you can at the wall, you may continue to poorly vet your accusations. Desperation shortens memories and you raise thinly veiled fear:
It emerged that Mr McCain had his own connection to Mr Khalidi. The Arizona senator is chairman of the International Republican Institute, which donated nearly $500,000 (£300,000) in 1993 to a Palestinian research group founded by Mr Khalidi.
John McCain has made the distant connections from years ago between Barack Obama and "unrepentant terrorist" Bill Ayers a centerpiece of the McCain-Palin campaign.
But McCain has much closer, more direct, and more recent connections to terrorists who committed acts far worse than Ayers, yet McCain's links to "unrepentant terrorists" are completely ignored by the media. And although Obama has forcefully condemned the past actions of Ayers, John McCain has never denounced his terrorist friends.
In the 1980s, McCain personally funded a guerrilla group (the Contras) that engaged in terrorist acts. Just last year, McCain expressed how "proud" he was of an ex-felon who urged shooting law enforcement agents in the head (G. Gordon Liddy). And earlier this year, the McCain campaign trumpeted the endorsement of a man who illegally provided weapons and money to terrorists; when a reporter questioned this, the McCain campaign refused to even criticize this criminal (Oliver North).
I am a proud Jewish Mother, A Proud American, and Tired, Tired, Tired, of
John McCain, Sarah Palin, Karl Rove,
and the Republican Party
using us Jewish people and Playing the "I love Israel" game, in order to manipulate the Jewish vote, and hurt the reputations or make people doubt Senator Obama, a man who is NOT anti-semetic, a man who is trying to heal the wounds of this broken country because of, Hate, Fear, War, Economy.
Stop using us Jewish people, you could create a backlash against Jewish people when you throw around lies, and accusations.
I heard that someone at a McCain / Palin rally said "country fist" not Israel. Those are the kind of people who we fear, not Senator Obama.
Stop using us Jewish people, stop it.
OH PLEASE! PLEASE! PLEASE make this ignorant Palin person go away! PLEASE!!!!

After reading all this mess, I have several point to make.
Why in the hell did McCain pick Palin for his rumming mate? I think is was a slap in the face for Romney and others that could have helped his ticket. Palin is a fake. She acts as if she Ms Goddy too Shoes, but no. First, a knocked up unmarried daughter ( if this was the Dem. they would still be talking about it )Second,abuse of power- " Fire my brother n law or I will fire you" Third, Why couldn't she wear her own clothes . Fourth, She is dumb.. she can't speak, she rambles, uneducated. It is harder to get into Nursing School than the White House.
Why did you take your children on a trip and had the State of Alaska pay for it.
I could go on and on.. McCain screwed up with her on the ticket.

Hey Steve, learn how to spell! This guy Sarah Palin is freaking out over Obama having connections with? also has connections with John McCain.
Do YOUR research, Republican puppets.
why is it a big deal for mccain/palin that obama has muslum friends. when has it become a crime to have muslum friend, oh obama has muslum friends so we shudnt vote for him, thats bull.
I checked out the LA times obamam birth cert... another obvious forgery, another obvious lie!
Obama is so far left!!! Way too far!!! I doubt even the dems in congress agree with half the crap he is professing. Maybe that is why pelosi is saying the dems will reach across the table in bipartisanship...
Palin is a total loser. If she wants to dispute that, have her release her transcripts from the paper mills that she attended. I KNOW EXACTLY
what her academic potential is ... she has been "left behind". Get this lipstick smeared clown off the air!
RELEASE THE TAPES! RELEASE THE TAPES! RELEASE THE TAPES! Let us see Obama's true colors!
Why is Sarah trying to stir up trouble for her own party since it was John McCain who gave this same man's party over $500,000 and dear old John was the chairman of the group that invited the guy to speak. When you throw the kitchen sink, it might boomerang and hit you.

WHY ARE YOU DEMS SO DEFENSIVE? WHY ARE YOU NOT DEALING WITH THE ISSUE HERE?
WE, THE AMERICAN PEOPLE DESERVE TO SEE WHAT'S ON THIS TAPE!
IF THERE'S NOTHING TO HIDE THEN THE DEMS SHOULD WANT TO SEE IT TOO....WHAT ARE YOU AFRAID OF?? LEARNING SOMETHING (ANYTHING) ABOUT THIS MEDIA-PRODUCED BEING WHO SEEMS NOTHING MORE THAN A SNAKE-OIL SALESMAN.
WHY IS IT SO AWFUL FOR THE RED TICKET TO BE ASKING FOR THE TAPE? IF THE SHOE WAS ON THE OTHER FOOT WE ALL KNOW THE ENTIRE PLANET WOULD HAVE SEEN THE VIDEO WITHIN A FEW HOURS! TALK ABOUT BIAS...HOW FAR CAN THIS GO?
First of all, I can't beleive how ignorant some Americans are. They seem to think that a person who is running for the President of the USA has to be born in the USA!!! Please read facts! This is not the case. Thee is a stipulated number of years of living in the USA that allows a person to run for presidency. 14 years if I remember right but then I am not American, I just studied American politics from American textbooks! So pls give up on the Obama birth certificate issue and focus on 'intelligence and competence' issues where Palin n McCain come up very short.
Every time Sarah Palin opens her mouth, she reaffirms the strife among members of the GOP. Coy, flirty behavior may have worked in high school, Sarah, but in the real world, when someone in the position that you aspire to hold must do the following: deal with our failing economy, global warming, wars and global relations, to name only a few. By squeezing yourself into a size-4 skirt (when you're more like an 8), winking and using colloquialisms that were best left at the door around the time when "Alice" (of Mel's Diner, think Flo) went off the air, and not being able to answer an interviewer's question just baffles me. How on earth can someone as ridiculously foolish, evil and stupid as Sarah Palin be the next US Vice-President? It is a frightening, frightening thought. I cannot imagine the US retaining its 1st world, superpower status with that folksy trollop attending meetings with the leaders of other nations. Sarah Palin's behavior, compounded by her hateful racist nature are no recipe for global relations. The Bush Administration has devastated the US's reputation throughout the world; we need to rise above this crisis rather than continue digging that proverbial grave.
Khalidi is one of academias foremost experts on Middle Eastern Studies. He is a historian with exceptional understanding of the region. He was absolutely correct on his predictions on the War and the insuing calamity. Too bad Bush didn't ask him for foreign policy advise in '02. We might not be broke, disrespected and left with few options. Everyone should read, "Resurection of Empire."
all i can say is that obama is just an eloquent speaker, full of promises but empty, no word of honor, and inexperienced and untested. i wonder what type of president would he be. let us not be fooled by his eloquent words , now is not the time to experiment.

I think we have seen this type of talk before from leaders in our country. Some called it Red Scare-we actually had that twice in our history.
McCain and Palin are coming awfully close to McCarthyism, if they have not already reached the level. These "guilt by associations" will backfire on these two.
The facts are that Republcans, not Democrats, have been the Tax and Spend leaders, Aside from Nixon, Republican administrations have acted irresponsible, spending without investing! Our National debt has never been higher than under two most important Republican administrations: Reagan-Bush-I and Bush-II (X2).
I think the American people are smarter than to fall into the McCarthyism going on now from McCain and Palin. Palin is irreversibly damaging her future, and McCain has lost his HONOR. What a sad state of affairs. These two represent everything that is wrong with our representatives.
I will watch Fox all night on Tuesday as Barack wins by landslide!

Look at Palin and McCain squirm! All they can do is continually and uninterruptedly put down Obama with outright lies and gross exaggeration! They are pitiful! Running scared! "Socialism!" they cry. "Joe the Plumber!" Aren't they pathetic???!!!! And these are people who are trying to convince us to lead the nation? Lead the nation!!!! Please, let this be a chess game, and just let them resign before they make themselves look so entirely foolish that no one would ever want to be seen with them again. Pitiful!!!
SINGIN' O-BAMA O-BAMA GO! GO! GO!
WE NEED BARACK OBAMA!
I have been wondering over the past week or so what is more damaging to the American way of life; terrorist attacks or movements of states to separate from the union.
Seen through my experience and my knowledge of American history it seems that terrorist action against the United States, while vile and reprehensible, results in a more unified and resolute population willing to sacrifice for the greater good. On the other hand the civil war, which was the last time there was a major push of states to separate from the union, resulted in a divide which still exists to some degree today. If you don't believe that, then tell me why I still see confederate flag license plates and such. This event almost destroyed our nation, which is the ultimate goal of terrorist activity.
For weeks now the McCain campaign has been attempting to smear Obama due to alleged ties to terrorists. These allegations are far reaching and tangential at best. My greatest concern is that I have yet to hear someone mention the absolute fact that every night Sarah Palin sleeps at home, it is beside someone who seeks to break from our union.
If her husband is part of a movement to have Alaska secede from the union, isn't this the closest of personal relationships with an individual who, though not a terrorist, seeks the same end through different means?
The idea that an individual who is so closely aligned with a separatist could be considered for the vice presidency of our nation is to me absolutely insane.
McCain and Palin's latest charge (that Obama has ties to Khalidi) might actually resonate with voters, if only McCain himself had not granted $440,000 to Khalidi's organization in the '90s.
Do you smell what I smell? It is the stink of desperation. I'll be holding my nose until Nov 4 is past us.
Palin is a corrupt demagogue. Just imagine her as President. She will eventually become President if McCain is elected.
Mickey and Minnie Mouse obviously had this ditty in their back packet "just in case" Obama looked like he was going to cream them in the last days. They throw all this crap out on one of his big days in the limelight. Contrived? YOU BET!
Too bad Mickey and Minnie don't have anything productive to talk about. The rest of us are going to CHANGE THIS COUNTRY away from the unbeleivable reeming we have taken from the GOP for eight years. They got their crooked chance, now it's ours. I guess repubs will just have to suffer through it like we have been for so long with Bush and his cohorts.
I wish Palin would just shut her trap for one minute. What a GOP witch.
OBAMA 08
After reading some of these posts, the neocons remind me of the Nazi Party. Does everyone have to pass your stupid tests of pure, white bread American? Y'all are scary people.
And what is McCain/palin's "version" of "winning" the war in Iraq. For god sake we are fighting against ourselves. Create peace and forget about so-called "Victory", it does not and will never exist, there are too many middle eastern factions to kill them all, don't you think, or are you into that type of extermination game?
Can't wait till Tuesday so you ignorant GOP people will shut up.
HEY NOBAMA - WHY DID YOUR SPEECHWRITER WENDY BUTTON PUT DOWN YOUR KOOL-AID, JUMPED SHIP AND WENT TO THE MCCAIN/PALIN CAMP??
COULD IT BE SHE WAS TIRED OF NOT GETTING PAID THE SAME AS HER MALE COUNTERPARTS?
COULD IT BE SHE WAS SICK OF THE MOCKERY AND MEAN-SPIRITEDNESS OF YOU AND YOUR CRONIES?
HAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHA
YOU AND YOUR PUBLIC RELATIONS (THE MSM) ARE UNRAVELING
HASTA LA VISTA YOU DEVIL - LIKE CHAVEZ SAID (ONE OF YOUR CRONIES)… THE DEVIL’S BEEN HERE - IT SMELLS OF SULPHER
I hear people still ranting about Obama's birth certificate. I don't care if Obama was born in another galaxy far, far away and his only ID says "Change" on it. I voted for him already!
Here's a plan for neocons. Follow Palin back to Alaska, all of you! Set-up shop and defect to her new country "Alaska". You can all be happy with your Queen Bee there.
Keep the Palestinians and muslims out of your dirty repulican mouthes. Palestinian Americans have been one of the most successful and outstanding groups in this country and the "strawberries" of this melting pot, you Nazi pigs.

Let's see the Sarah tapes. You know, the ones that show Sarah hanging around with the Alaska Independence Party!! The people who want to separate from the United States and have no use for America. Add into the mix, McCain supported the Professor he's accusing Obama of attending a going away party for, with cash.
Its precisely these kind of comments from seemingly educated folks that goes to prove that America deserves McCain/ Palin as their leaders.
America will become a war mongering nation under McCain (In all seriousness, World War III will be started by McCain and he will declare war on Iran and bring about the destruction of the world) and Palin will introduce a new meaning to the word Nepotism and Bias (hey, don't all republican Veep's have to conform to a certain degree of corruption?)
You "good ol' 'mericuhn boys" are better off voting for McCain and clipping your cohibas

THE BIG ISSUE is the ECONOMY, and not THE BIRTH CERTIFICATE, Obama and Macain they both are honorable, respected, Senators of our country, but the ECONOMY is the reason people our voting for OBAMA, trust me when you lost your house, your job and your 401k, the only choice is very clear.

HOLY SMOKES...will somebody please turn off Steve's computer? Quit hitting the POST button, no need to post your ignorance more than once! I bet you live in Florida, would explain why their election results have been screwed up the last 2 elections.....it was STEVE in the voting booth!!
The Mccain campaign is becoming more desparate everyday. Actually I remember, when Obama was accused by the old lady of being "Arab," regardless of the stupidity of the allegation, Mccain said that Obama was a decent American citizen. Now, what they accuse him of now is more like treason. I mean you gotta make up your mind, is Obama a decent American citizen or is he a potential terrorist. Moreover, why is anyone who thinks of criticizes Israel labelled as a terrorist. Mind me, it is Israel that is a terrorist nation, killing men, women and children everyday, after stripping them of their lands decades ago. It is YOU, who show uncompromising support to Israel that are the terrorists. It is YOU who should be tried by the American people for spoiling their image all over the world. It is YOU that should focus on your own plan rather than try to make you opponent look bad, cuz it does not make you look any better
Obama is going to win ha ha!
Obama is a Muslim. So what.
Obama also tells lies:
Berg files for expedited ruling on motion
for summary judgment against Obama
On Tues., Oct. 21, Pennsylvania lawyer Philip J. Berg filed two motions in the US District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania. Berg petitioned US District Court Judge R. Barclay Surrick for a summary judgment in the matter of Berg v Obama.
On Oct. 6, 2008 the Obama Campaign, joined by the Democratic National Committee filed a motion with Judge Surrick to delay discovery and dismiss Berg's lawsuit which was filed with the court on Sept. 15. Also, in the Sept. 15 filing, was a Request for Admission, which Obama and the DNC acknowledged receiving when they filed their motion to dismiss Berg's lawsuit. (Under Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, either party can file the motion [also known as a "request to admit"] in which the petitioner asks the opposing litigant to stipulate that certain known facts in evidence are true. That theoretically helps expedite a trial since, by affirming that certain known facts are true, the court does not have to address those questions during the trial or hearing and, instead, can concentrate on the points of law which are more germane to the case. When a litigant fails to respond to a Request for Admission within 30 days, it is construed to be an admission that the facts under the Request are true.
In his new filing, Berg contends that the Request for Admissions from Obama and the DNC was entered on Sept. 15. Both plaintiffs knew that, under the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, they had 30 days to answer the request. Berg told the court, "They knew the admissions were due. They knew they must object or answer specifically in 30 days. They did noting." Berg further argued that the failure by the plaintiffs to response within the time limit was "damning."
The admissions Berg asserted on Sept. 15, and asked for a request to admit from both Obama and the DNC, included the following stipulations to Sen. Obama::
—Admit you were born in Kenya.
—Admit you are a Kenya "natural born" citizen.
—Admit your foreign birth was registered in Hawaii.
—Admit your father, Barack Hussein Obama, Sr., admitted paternity of you
—Admit your mother gave birth to you in Mombasa, Kenya.
—Admit your mother's name is Stanley Ann Dunham a/k/a Ann Dunham.
—Admit the COLB [Certificate of Live Birth] posted on the website "FightingSmears.com" is a forgery.
—Admit you were adopted by a Foreign Citizen.
—Admit you were adopted by Lolo Soetoro, M.A., a citizen of Indonesia.
—Admit you were not born in Hawaii.
—Admit you are a citizen of Indonesia.
—Admit you never took the "oath of Allegiance" to regain your US Citizenship status.
—Admit you are not a "natural born" United States citizen.
—Admit your senior campaign staff is aware you are not a "natural born" US citizen.
—Admit the United States Constitution does not allow for a Person to hold the office of president of the United States unless that person is a "natural born" United States Citizen.
—Admit you are ineligible pursuant to the United States Constitution to serve as President and/or Vice President of the United States.
If Summary Judgment is not granted, Berg has demanded a jury trial. In the federal court system, a request for a jury trial in civil matters over $20 is guaranteed by the 7th Amendment. Berg issued a statement on Oct. 21 in which he said that the failure of Obama and/or the DNC to refute the allegations with the timely filing of the Request for Admissions was tantamount to an admission of guilt in the federal court system.
McCain and Palin are racists who are attempting to appeal to base vile racist fears. They would never bring up alledged PLO, terrorist connections against a white opponent. Use your intelligence and look at what is going on. It is not right against left but white against black in a not so subtle way.

I am 100% independent and was undecided till a few weeks ago, I set aside all dumb trashing (who cares if Obama was not the top of his class and I dont give a damn if Palin spends all of McCain's money on a coat) from both sides and listened to what they (candidates) had to say and did a little research on CNN on FOX and on factcheck.org
putting aside any beliefs or ties just satback and analysed and realized that Obama is the best man for the job....next election who knows but for the current one Obama is the man
...I am apalled at the Repubs and their diehard followers! When they release the tape why don't we release the check that was cashed from McCain to Rashid Khalidi. Is Sarah Palin the fake trying to throw both of the Senators under the bus? And how many times has she promised to release her medical records and she still has not.
Bottom line...Obama is going to win! Get used to it whiners!
Wow talk about loose cannons and no ethics from two candidates. These are the best the republicans had to offer? Palin your a waste of oxygen and McGrandpa your offensive and have no strategies to offer the US. Tuesday can't come fast enough to have all the commentators state this race was lost because of smear attempts and the US is fed up with them.
Obama is calm, strategic, intelligent and the only choice for America!

The next thing people will say is that Obama had ties to a black panther party or KKK member in his kindergarten class. It's obvious, the 'real' issues are being disregarded by the GOP. It seems the only thing they have is nonsense bashing. Who the heck cares who Obama associated with years ago. I care about what's happening now, that can fix the mess this country is in. If all the dirty laundry came out evenly (and it's not), we would not vote for any of the parties out there. Get a grip folks - the real 'survival' issues are the problem, not the association to someone who decided to attend a party or meeting you happen to be at. I bet you can say there is at least one person you knew directly or indirectly who's life turned negative.

I find it disturbing that the republicans are stooping yet again to dirty tricks to try and further divide this country. Obama has my vote. This is because his policies make sense in this economy. McCain has yet to explain a lot of his policies and how he expects to fund them. Also, I find it scary that should something happen to him at his old age we will be left with someone who has very little experience. She may be a Governor, but she has yet to prove herself worthy of the VP slot. Division is not a deciding factor and neither is acting like a sore loser.
Doesn't everyone know that John McCain gave Kalid Rashid $500,000 to further his research in Palenstinian Society? Sarah Palin is n idiot for opening this Pandora's Box for John McCain. She's is the dumbest move the Republicans have made in a long time. Come on John, why not Condeleeza Rice?
I can't belive Palin and McCain. Still hammering Obama. Two foolish Cads who are going to lose the election because of their big mouths. Get off off of it! Larry King explainesd after McCain meowed around about it on his show (for free) that there was nothing to that. I am so sick and appauled by those two....after they lose I'll praise God I will not have to hear their whinning, voices again. Palin is like someone runs their finger nails on a blackboard!

Palin and Liddy Dole are cut from the same mold. The "godlessness" ad from yesterday will put Dole away for good. Palin
will have her 15 minutes and disappear as well.
Isn’t it funny how these reich-wingers that wear their “superior morality and faith” on their sleeve for political gain don’t seem to have a problem with that pesky, “bearing false witness” Commandment? What a sad, pathetic and stupid way to end your political career.

I have been reading the comments and would like to add my two cents. Anyone involved in any sort of politics in the US has been touched by a radical (as defined by the other party). Republicans will call radicals any liberals (Ayers, Rashid, etc) and Democrats will call radical any conservatives (Limbaugh, etc). Calling Obama an anti american because he associated with Ayers at one point in time is like calling McCain racist for associating in the same party with Helms.
I suggest we stop this non-sense and listen to what they have to offer. You all know that they can not deliver everything they promise and they will not be able to go so radical either way because their own constituents will control them (if needed by kicking them out of office in 2 years).
I WILL vote; and I will vote for Obama. I think he has articulated a better position and he can get a coalition to address our issues. I respect McCain, he was a hero and a symbol for this country but I do not think his time is know. His time has passed, his ideas (as laid out) are wrong and the choices he has made do not help (Female VP choices are abundant among republicans for the choice he made).
To me it is that simple.
By the way, taking away the name calling, I love free speech in this country. Good luck to all.
Whenever I see sarah, I want to stand and click my heels together and raise my arm and hand up high and say "heil palin".
I just dont understand how it is so horrible that Obama crosses path with this guy, yet we send our college students to be taught by him...?
BRAVO, LUIS!!!! Nice to hear the voice of reason among the throngs of hysterical doomsayers on this post. I, too, was born in Hawaii before it was a state. It is like pulling teeth to get a copy of my birth certificate. I watched Obama's address to the country last night. What a nice, articulate person he is. He set out his vision of the future and it makes perfect sense. The government needs to realign itself into a more efficient model. Clearly, McCain (and especially Palin)are not up to the task. They are stuck in the 20th century mode of thinking. We can save plenty of money to be used for several worthwhile projects by just cutting out the fat. After all, a conservative 10% savings alone would amount to $300 BILLION. That ain't chump change.
As a Jew, I was terrified by a comment made by Sarah Palin at a rally in which "Joe the Plumber" was a featured guest.
"With his shaved head, jeans, and steel toed boots, he's OUR kind of guy right?" said Palin to a resounding cheer from
the overwhelmingly WASP crowd. (At which point I cringed for her husband, Todd who is nothing like Joe the Plumber).
In what country are shaved heads, certain brands of jeans and especially steel toed boots not associated with radical
Neo-Nazi skinheads? And how do you suppose those Neo-Nazi skinheads feel about Jews, African-Americans, Catholics, and anyone else who does not fit the narrow description of a
"real" American according to the right wing conservatives?
Wake up Children of Israel!
McCain/Palin is a vote for those who despise us. Remember this: they protect Israel for Christianity, NOT Judaism.
GOP supporters crack me up. Eight years of being in denial about their beloved God chosen president and his neo-con hawks, now they are the party of honesty, justice and the defender of everything American. Please show me an example of one GOP leader where they have owned up to their "mistakes" How more screwed up does it have to get before anyone supporting the GOP acknowledges how bad the last eight years have been? Why is reform needed when all is well in GOP land? GOP supporters are so eager to spread/fabricate lies about Obama all along ignoring that the main reason why Obama will win is because of the complete mismanagement of this country by Bush and the RNC.
Neo-cons only answer is to blame it on the liberal media but why hasn't Palin and her husband's relationship with the succession group been discussed or McCain's relationship with Libby, Keating (briefly mentioned)and his donation to the PLO? The Democrats are not talking about it because they are trying to talk about the issues. I guess the liberal media would rather listen to the lies spewing out of the GOP. Perhaps they are concerned about their ratings. A close election helps the advertising dollars. Hopefully, there are enough people left in this country with common sense that will vote for the best(not perfect) candidate left. Then all we will have to listent to from the GOP is the crying and whining and excuses why they lost. Unfortunately, their excuses will only included more vile hate towards liberals (people who aren't like them). They will reload and start their hateful campaign towards regaining power. There slogan should be GOP first Country second. Vote Obama 08
I loved what the Columbia professor said when he refused to comment ("wait until the idiot wind passes"). Only problem is, he got it backwards! It should have read "every time the idiot opens her mouth, she passes wind". LOL

Where was Mr. Barack Hussein Obama born? Why do the people who are voting for this man not care. He had the American Flag removed from his plane, doesn't pledge the flag and he wrote in his book, in his own words, "should the political winds shift, I WILL STAND WITH THE MUSLIMS. As far as Sarah Palin, why is the news media bashing her, and why not have Obama provide his birth certificate. He is probably waiting until they can get one drawn up. He is not U.S born and he should not be president. What about Rev. Wright? Apathy is running rampant among we Americans. I see a division of our country, even bigger than before the Civil War. I know Hussein is not the next Messiah, but he could definitely be the anti-Christ. Wake up and VOTE for an AMEREICAN, and don't forget to get a gun for protection BEFORE OBAMA gets put in the white house, by hook or crook. A.C.O.R.N.

Do any of you really this the "Most touted" candidate for PRESIDENT, CAN'T GET A COPY OF HIS BIRTH CERTIFICATE. Come on get real.
Be careful. Emotions often table the responses. There is an extremist element creeping into right and left politics in the US that doesn't sit well well with the founding fathers. This election is doing what the economy is currently doing - recalibrating the social and cultural norms of Americans, right and left after a decade and a half of turmoil from both sides.
Careful what you wish for; and vote for. The comments from the perceived losing side always reflect what will happen in the future not what is happening at the moment ... because that is what the comments are rebelling against.
If dems win - just remember these disagreements when it comes to understanding WHY we won. Let's not dwell in this before our time but more, bask in the understanding that acceptance of the moderate, and I emphasize 'moderate' right is important to our democracy more than credence for the extremists, of which there are many on this forum. Statesmen NOT demagogues.
