Hi, There are a few more you may have forgotten to mention...'I didn't have time to keep records" Obama referring to his Illinois State Legislator records. On the same note..'I only had one assistant', 'I left them in my old office', 'the new guy must have them', the last quote-'they must have thrown them away' and for the record the new guy said there was nothing there when he got there.Next..the series of denials with regard to his 20 year mutual friendship with Antoine Rezko.'Don't have any association with him''Did 6 hours of billable work with my law firm while I was a junior associate, for a church, which may have mentioned his company'..Obama said that on national tv during the Ohio debate with HRC and JE.'Our campaign (for President) found $60,000 that may have been associated with him and we returned it and gave the rest to charity''Yes, its true, I guess I did speak with him on a daily basis while I was in the Legislature''On a rare occasion I recall having dinner with the Rezko's-yes Michele and I would occasionally have dinner with them''No favors-absolutely not-it was a bone headed mistake''I never discussed my real estate transactions with him''He is a successful realtor and I sought his advice regarding the purchase of my home''As it happens, I did remember walking through the house with Mr. Rezko. I sought his advice''No, I was not aware he purchased the lot next to me, as it happens, until this point we, (Michele and I) had made three offers on the house and this was the best one, I guess because they took it.''No, I had no idea Mr. Rezko was having any legal issues.''No, I never met with Mr Auchi at the Four Seasons.''I may have dropped in on a party with Mr. Auchi there, I never knew who would be there.' 'I did drop in occasionally as a favor for Mr. Rezko.'There are more and more.What makes me the most angry about Mr. Obama is the way he preys on young people with his promises of honesty and transparency in government. He offers up the obvious issues with no solutions and when asked for at least one original substantive policy-he deflects the commentary to race, religion or passports.He is the worst of old style politicians..a liar, thief and a crook. We are all to embarrassed by the racial rhetoric he has enflamed to say it for fear of the backlash his ardent supporters have already threatened. They have threatened Mrs. Ferraro with such vitriol the police are guarding her.Is this the America we want? Not me.

Who is Penny Pritzker?

Pritzker is the national finance chair of Obama’s presidential campaign. She’s from one of America’s richest families, the founders of the Hyatt hotel chain, and is herself the 135th richest person in America.

She also has an ugly history as the former chair of Superior Bank in Illinois, which (1) was created thanks to a giant S&L bailout by the government; (2) then helped invent the securitization of subprime mortgages; and (3) then collapsed in 2001 thanks to massive financial chicanery.

Interestingly, she lives in a fancy Chicago neighborhood just a short stroll away from Austan Goolsbee, a University of Chicago professor who’s one of Obama’s main economic advisors. It’s really quite wonderful how Goolsbee can maintain his deep admiration for the Free Market while living a few blocks away from billionaires who use massive government power to create and subsidize their businesses

Obama said he was for a single payer health system, but now opposes plans that cover every American.

He promised to repeal the Patriot Act, but then voted to extend it.

He promised to normalize relations with Cuba, but flip-flopped when he started running for president.

He rails against NAFTA in Ohio while his top economic advisor assures the Canadians his rhetoric is just "political positioning."

He promises to opt in to public financing if the GOP nominee does, but then breaks that pledge in real time.

He promises to withdraw from Iraq within 16 months, and now his top foreign policy adviser says that he's not relying on the plan.

At first he knew of no controversial remarks from his pastor. Then he knew it. Then he knew some but not others.

At first the "union" that brought him into this world was caused by the bridge crossing/civil rights movement in Selma which, by the way, actually happened 5 years afterwards. Long after he was born.

He flattered Kennedys by crediting them for funding his father's arrival to US when the Kennedys had nothing to do with it.

Don't even get me going over the questionnaires he has filled indicating positions he has completely contradicted during this campaign cycle.

List keeps on growing.

This is from 1995, after Obama returned from the Million Man March and decided to run for the State Senate-

We have no shortage of moral fervor," said Obama. "We have some wonderful preachers in town--preachers who continue to inspire me--preachers who are magnificent at articulating a vision of the world as it should be. In every church on Sunday in the African-American community we have this moral fervor; we have energy to burn.

Rev Wright, Minister Farrakhan, Al Sharpton? Wonder who he's talking about and how the "world should be"?
