Obama lead collapsing

Resident Hack

It seems that more than hard core conservatives like Sarah Palin. The latest Reuters/C-SPAN/Zogby poll shows that since the VP debate, the gap between Obama and McCain has shrunk to 3%. There is a 2.8% margin of error. Obama had an 8 point lead before the VP debate.

Now, I'm a Palin fan- but I don't believe that she can get all the credit. Some credit must go to Joe Biden, who lied repeatedly during the debate. Biden must learn that his ridiculous claims can be easily checked in the internet age. Some of the Credit also goes to Obama.

It's been a stellar week for the Barrack Star, but once you get by big media and dig into the facts, you see why he is dropping in the polls. Big Media will only prop him up for so long. In the last week, we've heard of a Barrack associate who lost one hundred thousand dollars of a non profit organizations money. Oops. He better check his pockets again. We've also glimpsed in to exactly how he is running up that huge war chest.

Donors with names such as "Doodad Pro" and "Good Will" have donated hundreds of dollars- all with small donations that are under the 200 dollar cap. There wee also two brothers in the Gaza Strip that donated thirty thousand dollars to Barry. They funneled the money to Obama by buying t-shirts from the campaign. The money was returned, though, I'm not sure if the brothers kept the t-shirts.

Voters take notice of irregularities- especially when they are found by the boatload. Let's examine the list of Obama's irregularities:

Obama bought his house in Chicago under market value, while his neighbor Tony Rezko bought a plot of land next door at above market level. No need to worry- Tony Rezko is no longer Barracks neighbor- he currently resides in a federal penitentiary.

Then there's Bill Ayers- an alleged terrorist who was let off on a technicality. When discussing his bombing of the Pentagon- he stated that he wishes he had done more.

Rev. Jeremiah Wright. I'm sure everyone remembers him. In one sermon he shouted God D America over and over again. He says AIDS was created by the CIA to kill African Americans. He was Obama's spiritual advisor in the beginning of the campaign, and baptized the senators daughters.

The finance scandal mentioned above provided hundreds of thousands of dollars from God only knows where. He can't return it, because the people listed as donors don't exist. That's certainly a creative way around campaign finance laws.

Speaking of campaign finance- Obama pledged to accept federal matching funds. He then broke that pledge.

Obama also took in big money from the Fannie mae and Freddie Mac PACs. Then he stood against Sen. McCain's proposed regulatory efforts.

America needs a leader, not a schemer. As more and more irregularities are uncovered, Obama becomes more and more exposed. Soon he will stand before us veiled only in truth. It is then we will see that the emperor has no clothes...

Why is Bill Ayers being ignored?

Imagine if John McCain had his political career launched by someone that had bombed an abortion clinic. Would the press have given up as easily as they have on the Ayers-Obama connection? Probably not. It makes me ask what's the difference? The answer is politics and the leftward slant of the media.

Let's take a look at Bill Ayers. Sarah Palin leads the way:

"Evidently, there’s been a lot of interest in what I read lately. Well, I was reading my copy of The New York Times the other day, and I was really interested to read about Barrack's friends from Chicago. Turns out, one of his earliest supporters is a man named Bill Ayers. And according to The New York Times, he was a domestic terrorist and part of a group that, quote, "launched a campaign of bombings that would target the Pentagon and the U.S. Capitol." Wow. And there’s even more to the story. Barack Obama said Ayers was just someone in the neighborhood. But that’s less than truthful. His own top advisor said they were, quote, "certainly friendly." In fact, Obama held one of the first meetings of his political career in Bill Ayers’s home. And they’ve worked together on various projects in Chicago."

That's pretty bad- yet there is never mention in the mainstream media. So it must be politics, right? Wrong.

Ayers is a sick puppy. He was asked by the New York Times if he regretted his actions in the 60's his answer? "I don't regret setting bombs" and "I feel we didn't do enough", and, when asked if he would "do it all again" as saying "I don't want to discount the possibility." Interesting. No one died in the attack on the capital- but it was a nail bomb. That's and anti-personnel device. You can't tell me that their intention wasn't to kill someone.

Now, on to his Obama connection. Direct from Wikipedia:

Bill Ayers and Barack Obama have been linked during their time in the city of Chicago, where they lived three blocks apart and lead charges for education reform in the state of Illinois. The two met "at a luncheon meeting about school reform in a Chicago skyscraper."[39] Obama was then named to the Chicago Annenberg Project board to oversee the distribution of grants in Chicago. Later in 1995, Ayers hosted "a coffee" (fund raiser) for "Mr. Obama's first run for office."[40] Both Obama and Ayers were members of the board of an anti-poverty group, the Woods Fund of Chicago, between 2000 and 2002, during which time the board met twelve times.[40] Ayers also contributed $200 to Obama's re-election fund to the Illinois State Senate in April 2001."[39] Since 2002, there has been little linking Obama and Ayers.[40] Obama says he has not visited Ayers during the presidential campaign. The senator said in September 2008 that he hadn't "seen him in a year-and-a-half."[41] In February 2008, Obama spokesman Bill Burton released a talking point about the relationship between the two: "Senator Obama strongly condemns the violent actions of the Weathermen group, as he does all acts of violence. But he was an eight-year-old child when Ayers and the Weathermen were active, and any attempt to connect Obama with events of almost forty years ago is ridiculous."[42] CNN's review of project records found nothing to suggest anything inappropriate in the volunteer projects in which the two men were involved.[43]

So, AFTER he decides to run for the Senate, Ayers is all of a sudden unworthy of Obama's friendship? Obama took a campaign contribution form him, and went on to let him host a fundraiser. They worked to gather on the Annenberg project- certainly there were meetings together- that's why Ayers through the fund raiser. He hasn't seen him in a year and a half? That was during Obama's Presidential campaign.

It the end, this goes to prove that Obama will meet terrorist without precondition- he already has in Chicago.
