McCain/Palin: Obama is not like us, he pals around with terrorists.

Unlike Snobama, not all of us can have prominent Muslim activists/fundraisers, who hate Israel, write a letter of recommendation to HAHVAHD to secure our admission.

 

I don't know about this.

I'm just wondering what the facts are behind this...

How can someone have a prominent Muslim activist, who hates Israel, write a letter of recommendation to Harvard, and have that letter of recommendation secure their admission? By your statement, it seems that this person hating Israel has something to do with him getting into Harvard. How is that so?

 

Obama went to Columbia undergrad. Yo forgot to mention how he didn't deserve to go there.

 

It would be nice if Obama released his educational records. But he refuses to do so. That might clear up the doubts that you express...

 

McCain has no vision that is not just more of the discredited Bush agenda. This is not a winner. His only chance at winning is to demonize Obama.

 

So you are just making stuff up about Obama because he hasn't released his educational records?

That's a strange rationale.

 

This is some more evidence of how the long primary battle has actually helped Obama. Most of these issues have already been raised and vetted in the public eye during the primary and Obama handled them well then and I don't think they will have much traction now.

 

Do not question the dear leader's nurse-maid / running maid or their brainwashed followers:

Close-up on juvenile justice
Author, former offender among speakers

By Jennifer Vanasco
News Office

Children who kill are called "super predators," "people with no conscience," "feral pre-social beings" -- and "adults."

William Ayers, author of A Kind and Just Parent: The Children of Juvenile Court (Beacon Press, 1997), says "We should call a child a child. A 13-year-old who picks up a gun isn't suddenly an adult. We have to ask other questions: How did he get the gun? Where did it come from?"

Ayers, who spent a year observing the Cook County Temporary Juvenile Detention Center in Chicago, is one of four panelists who will speak on juvenile justice at 6 p.m. Thursday, Nov. 20, in the C-Shop. The panel, which marks the 100th anniversary of the juvenile justice system in the United States, is part of the Community Service Center's monthly discussion series on issues affecting the city of Chicago. The event is free and open to the public.

Ayers will be joined by Sen. Barack Obama, Senior Lecturer in the Law School, who is working to combat legislation that would put more juvenile offenders into the adult system; Randolph Stone, Director of the Mandel Legal Aid Clinic; Alex Correa, a reformed juvenile offender who spent seven years in Cook County Temporary Detention Center; Frank Tobin, a former priest and teacher at the Detention Center who helped Correa; and Willy Baldwin, who grew up in public housing and is currently a teacher at the Detention Center.

The juvenile justice system was founded by Chicago reformer Jane Addams, who advocated the establishment of a separate court system for children which would act like a "kind and just parent" for children in crisis.

One hundred years later, the system is "overcrowded, under-funded, over-centralized and racist," Ayers said.

Michelle Obama, Associate Dean of Student Services and Director of the University Community Service Center, hopes bringing issues like this to campus will open a dialogue between members of the University community and the broader community.

"Students and faculty explore these issues in the classroom, but it is an internal conversation," Obama said. "We know that issues like juvenile justice impact the city of Chicago, this nation and -- directly or indirectly -- this campus. This panel gives students a chance to hear about the juvenile justice system not only on a theoretical level, but from the people who have experienced it."

 

are you even reading this stuff before you post. what's your point. they had a discussion on juvenile justice in an academic setting. OMG how horrible

 

^^^^oh and btw, do you know what issue bush rose to popularity on in the 94 race for governor of texas.

guess what, juvenile justice and the Texas Youth Commission. Treating kid criminals like adults. The TYC is an epic failure and it leads back to bush's expansion of a broken system.

Can you say, IRONY

 

I guess everyone who's ever been associated with University of Chicago has been pallin' around with terrorists.

 

I'm confused. I once attended a lecture series with G. Gordon Liddy and Alger Hiss. Does that make me a totalitarian criminal or a communist criminal?

I also once appeared on a panel with a woman and a gay guy and I don't think I'm either.

 

Yes, yes, yes, and yes.

 

Obama is guilty. He's guilty of being at events with a Professor.

If hat isn't cause for concern I don't know what is.

 

So is it ok for Timothy McVeigh to launch the next President's campaign at his house?

Is it OK to befriend Osama bin Laden in 30 years?


Apparently in Obama's book there is no problem...

 

If he can, that guy would win. If someone comes back to life after having been dead for over ten years, I'm going to listen to him.

 

Ayers didn't launch anything for Obama at his house. Please get your facts straight.

 

Timothy Mcveigh, Osama Bin Laden, Bill Ayers

One of these does not belong....

 

NASHVILLE, Tennessee (CNN) -- A new national poll suggests Barack Obama is widening his lead over John McCain in the race for the White House.

Sen. Barack Obama leads Sen. John McCain by 8 points, according to CNN's latest poll.

The CNN/Opinion Research Corporation poll out Monday afternoon suggests that the country's financial crisis, record low approval ratings for President Bush and a drop in the public's perception of McCain's running mate could be contributing to Obama's gains.

Fifty-three percent of likely voters questioned in the poll say they are backing Obama for president, with 45 percent supporting McCain.

That 8-point lead is double the 4-point lead Obama held in the last CNN/Opinion Research Corporation poll, taken in mid-September. Watch why the economy is hurting McCain

Monday evening's CNN national Poll of Polls -- incorporating our new CNN survey, as well as new tracking numbers from Gallup and Hotline taken October 3-5 -- shows Obama leading McCain by 6 points -- at 49 to 43 percent.

The financial crisis also appears to be contributing to Obama's increased lead in the poll. Sixty-eight percent are confident in the Democratic presidential nominee's ability to handle the financial crisis, 18 points ahead of McCain, and 42 points ahead of Bush.

More Americans appear to have an unfavorable view of Gov. Sarah Palin, and that may also be helping Obama in the fight for the presidency. Forty percent now have an unfavorable view of Palin, up from 27 percent a month ago and from 21 percent in late August, when McCain surprised many people by picking the first-term Alaska governor as his running mate.

"A majority of Americans now believe that Sarah Palin would be unqualified to serve as president if it became necessary, and her unfavorable rating has doubled," Holland said.
