THE OBAMA FILES:

Amazing - He even has his own salute.
His aunt lives in a Boston slum
Broke his pledge to accept public financing for his presidential run.
He still hasn't released his medical records
Brother lives in a cardboard shack in Nairobi, Kenya on $1 a month!
He is hiding his VP pick Biden from reporters
Obama shill Jeffrey Sachs can't name even ONE Obama accomplishment.
Obama's church and their "Black Value System" theology
Connections to covicted felon Tony Rezko
Let's cut the military by 25%
Female speechwriter for Obama, Clinton and Edwards is voting for McCain
An illegal aliens' dream:
CHANGE WE NEED? Obama wants women to register for Selective Service
Sexism lives on! Obama pays his female staffers 83 cents for every dollar a man makes.

WHY DO THEY HATE SO MUCH?


Rhetorical question or not? There is no question the outright hatred and mean spiritless of the left has increased this election cycle. What is more surprising is how little attention it has generated. Remember the furor when someone might have yelled "kill him" at a GOP Rally. Did you know that the Secret Service who conducted a full investigation concluded that it didn't happen? The agent in charge said he was baffled by the accusation since nobody heard it.
So do you think their hatred is innate, learned, genetic or taught?

This election cycle we now see an effigy of Sarah Palin being hanged in effigy. She is being lynched and yet this is not a hate crime. Go figure! Somehow this is explained by "Good Halloween Fun". Can you imagine the rage if this were a Democrat being hanged?

Lest you think this is an isolated incident consider what is going on now in the country:

BERG vs OBAMA lawsuit being appealed to Supreme Court!

If this were happening on the Republican side it would be wall to wall 24x7 coverage. The fact is Phillip Berg, a Democrat, has been suing Barack Obama claiming that he is ineligible to become President of the United States because he was born in Kenya. The suit was recently thrown out of the Hawaii Supreme Court but Berg filed an emergency appeal with the Supreme Court!

(Lafayette Hill, Pennsylvania - 10/25/08) - Philip J. Berg, Esquire, the Attorney who filed suit against Barack H. Obama challenging Senator Obama's lack of "qualifications" to serve as President of the United States, announced today that he is immediately appealing the dismissal of his case to the United States Supreme Court. The case is Berg v. Obama, No. 08-cv-04083. Berg said, "I am totally disappointed by Judge Surrick's decision and, for all citizens of the United States, I am immediately appealing to the U.S. Supreme Court. This is a question of who has standing to uphold our Constitution. If I don't have standing, if you don't have standing, if your neighbor doesn't have standing to question the eligibility of an individual to be President of the United States - the Commander-in-Chief, the most powerful person in the world - then who does? So, anyone can just claim to be eligible for congress or the presidency without having their legal status, age or citizenship questioned. According to Judge Surrick, we the people have no right to police the eligibility requirements under the U.S. Constitution. What happened to ‘...Government of the people, by the people, for the people,...' Abraham Lincoln in his Gettysburg Address 1863. We must legally prevent Obama, the unqualified candidate, from taking the Office of the Presidency of the United States," Berg said.

GOOD GREAT ECONOMIC NEWS!

No the folks at COMMON CENTS aren't smoking anything. But there were some VERY encouraging economic reports issues today and yesterday. They didn't get much coverage but in normal times would have had the market skyrocketing. You may not read this anywhere else but there is some great economic news out there:

EXISTING HOME SALES UP:

NEW YORK (CNNMoney.com) -- Sales of existing homes rose in September, but prices continued to drop, according to the latest reading on the battered housing market by an industry trade group released Friday. The National Association of Realtors reported that sales by homeowners jumped in September to an annual pace of 5.18 million, up 1.4% from a year ago. It was the first time that sales rose compared to a year earlier since November 2005. September sales were up 5% from the August reading of 4.91 million, marking the largest month-to-month increase since July 2003. Economists surveyed by Briefing.com had expected the report to show existing home sales rose to an annual pace of 4.95 million. Read about it here.
GAS COSTS LESS THAN YEAR AGO:

(AP) — An OPEC attempt to stem the free-fall in oil prices fizzled Friday with crude futures dropping below $65 a barrel to lows last seen 15 months ago on world economic fears, despite the 13-member group's decision to slash production by a daily 1.5 million barrels. Oil's steep plunge has sent the price of a gallon of gasoline below year-ago levels for the first time in 2008. A gallon of regular gas fell 4 cents overnight to a new national average of $2.78, according to auto club AAA, the Oil Price Information Service and Wright Express. That's nearly a dollar less than what was paid last month and 4 cents below gas prices one year ago on Oct. 24. Gas prices are off from their July peak by about a third compared with the price of crude, which has been more than halved. There is even gas selling for UNDER $2.00 a gallon in Texas!

CORPORATE PROFITS:

Obviously things are gloomy out there. But it with home sales increasing finally and gasoline prices decreasing these are the beginning signals of an economic recovery. Spread the word...

BIDEN THE IGNORAMUS (updated!)

Senator Joe Biden is the gift that keeps giving! If any other politician, especially a Republican had said any of these things they would never be able to live it down. Biden creates controversy literally everytime he opens his mouth - and largely gets a pass. Even CNN's Lou Dobbs did a segment on this subject.


If Sarah Palin was half the serial gaffer Joe Biden is, the Media would be all over her, insisting that her boo-boos showed her to be incompetent. Yet Biden gets a free pass from the pro-Obama mainstream media (MSM) as he continues to mangle his remarks with remarks with multiple faux pas. His latest was a beauty, and a serious blow to the reputation of his running mate Barack Obama, who's already fending off attacks on his own inexperience: “Watch, we're gonna have an international crisis, a generated crisis, to test the mettle of this guy.” And if that wasn't enough, he went on to say that Barack Obama would not be up to meeting the crisis and would need help. The media's reaction: to swallow whole the Obama camp's spin. He wasn't talking about Obama alone, the spinners said, but McCain as well – a flat out lie. He specifically named Obama. That gaffe has also provided fodder for Sarah Palin, who has been repeating it on the stump since Biden uttered it last weekend. “Did you hear what Sen. Biden said at a fundraiser on Sunday?" Palin asked at a rally in Troy, Ohio. "He guaranteed—he said mark my words, he guarantees that if Barack Obama is elected, we’ll face an international crisis within the first six months of their administration.” She then touted Biden's vast foreign policy experience, using it to point out how the top of the Democratic ticket pales in comparison. “Senator Obama’s own running mate, the chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, has informed us that a serious international crisis is certain if Obama is elected," Palin said, "and that he is not ready to deal with it and America doesn’t need smooth talk that glosses over that question, we need straight talk that answers it.” If anything, Biden is full of "straight talk" — but it always raises more questions than answers. Biden shocked many when, during a rally, he asked the wheelchair-bound Missouri politician Chuck Graham to “stand up” at a rally. You can read the entire article here.
