John McCain Makes Spanish Gaffes During Interview
Posted September 18, 2008


For your entertainment, here's Obama when the teleprompter isn't working:

BTW .... did you know that Obama's speechwriter is a 28 year old kid from
Reading, MA.

I wonder who was the ghost writer for his two Memoirs.

Which begs a question. How do you have enough material for two Memoirs when
you haven't done anything yet?

Ever read them? They are very interesting.

Most interesting is the connection to Saul Alinsky which isn't overtly
mentioned in either "Dreams" or "Audacity", but he worked directly
with students and followers of Alinsky in the "community organizing"
community and such luminaries as Rev. Jeremiah Wright and Bill Ayers.
Obama has admitted in interviews that Alinsky's ideas are central to
his view of governance. Obama became so skilled at it that he was
recruited to teach Alinsky's methodology to other labor and community
organizers.

In case you aren't familiar with the name, Saul Alinsky was a radical
left social science professor at University Chicago who is credited
with the whole concept of "community organizing". He is the common
touchstone between Obama and Clinton for instance (Clinton wrote her
Senior Honors Thesis on Alinsky). Obama was schooled in Alinsky's
style of organizing by people who directly worked with Alinsky in
Chicago and at the University of Chicago.

Here's a quote from Alinsky's boot "Rules for Radicals":

"Rules for Radicals": "Lest we forget at least an over-the-shoulder
acknowledgment to the very first radical: from all our legends,
mythology, and history (and who is to know where mythology leaves off
and history begins -- or which is which), the first radical known to
man who rebelled against the establishment and did it so effectively
that he at least won his own kingdom -- Lucifer."

Keep that in mind when you think about Obama.

Do take the time to read the two books - very instructive and a great
deal of insight into how Obama thinks.


Good old Saul...one of my all-time favoriates...and more. I'm really
glad even the memory of Saul gives you the ****s.
