A history lesson for those that don't remember. And maybe a look into the future...
A newcomer to national politics, he claimed to transcend partisan labels. He moved to the center during the campaign, at a time when the Democrats held large congressional majorities. In a troubled economy, he told voters he would keep taxes down for most Americans, limit spending, and balance the budget, all while implementing ambitious social programs. He planned to cut military spending to free money for other purposes, but assured moderates and conservatives that when it came to America's enemies, he would be tougher than the Republicans. The media, droves of moderates, and some conservatives believed him, having pegged him as a man of character.
His name was Jimmy Carter, the year was 1976, and he won. His presidency helps us predict the likely results of an Obama victory in 2008.

We are still paying the price of the Carter presidency and that old pile of crap still opens his pie hole to the foriegn press. But, we did survive his rule, and he was a one-termer. O-Crapulence, hopefully, will likewise be a one-termer as he and his congressional bedmates reach too far.

SUPERTYPHOON PAMELA + DISCO = GLOBAL WARMING. BICENTENNIAL = "CHANGE", FORD-CARTER = MCCAIN-OBAMA, GAS HOARDING, etc.???
1976 GUAM > started off as a great year until Guam was wiped out by PAMELA and the many months of recovery therefrom. Kids learned it was actually possible to hate RED CROSS/FEMA-supplied JELLO Pudding and other name-brand products, becuz we ate so much of it month after month.
Yep, Bawney Fwank (B. Frack, Rep-gaysMassjust said they were going to cut the defense budget 25% in order to pay for social spending, and in order to force the entire US military to disengage and leave Iraq rapidly.

Girl in the ad has the 'slut-ish' kind of look which seems to be all the rage of the POP/RAP scene nowdays. Sexy yes, cute - not very, and not 'beautuful'.
For the article - looks like a couple of inflatable boobs to me. Over Inflated in fact. Where's Obama's tire gage?

I got this from a friend of mine yesterday, so I didn't have to look. I'd call them a pair of phoneys myself. Self-deluded fools is also permissable.

Set up direct Senate contact for Kenyan opposition leader
Sen. Barack Obama designated a personal aide as his direct contact for the 2007 Kenyan presidential campaign of Raila Odinga, who later was appointed prime minister after his election loss was followed by widespread, deadly violence that destroyed or damaged 800 Christian churches, according to e-mails obtained by WND senior staff writer Jerry Corsi during a trip to Kenya.
Corsi attempted to release this and other information at a Tuesday press conference in Nairobi. The WND reporter and No. 1 New York Times bestselling author was detained by Kenya security officers as soon as he entered the hotel to make his presentation. He was held incommunicado and without food for the entire day before being permitted to board his regularly scheduled flight out of the country to London, where he is currently recuperating from the ordeal.
As WND has reported, Obama openly campaigned for Odinga during the Illinois Democrat's 2006 Senate "fact-finding visit" to Kenya.
Odinga called for protests over alleged voter fraud after losing the December 2007 general election. The resulting protest violence left an estimated 1,000 members of the dominant Kikuyu tribe in Kenya dead and an estimated 500,000 displaced from their homes.
The links between Obama and Odinga were documented by copies of two e-mails obtained by Corsi during his meetings in Kenya with various government officials and others.
The e-mails, apparently sent by Obama himself, referenced the senator's aide, Mark Lippert. The e-mails were provided to WND by an insider in Kenya who fled Odinga's Orange Democratic political party and requested anonymity because of the danger of retaliation.
The e-mails, identified as coming from Obama's Senate office, are addressed to "railaaodinga" at a yahoo.com address.
A WND e-mail to the same Obama address generated an automated response and a list of contacts for Obama's offices. A WND e-mail sent to the Odinga e-mail address didn't generate a response.
One e-mail purportedly from Obama, dated Dec. 22, 2006, read, "I will kindly wish that all our correspondence [be] handled by Mr Mark Lippert. I have already instructed him. This will be for my own security both for now and in future."
It is reproduced here with the e-mail address of the person who forwarded it to WND redacted
Balance, links, and copies of the e-mails at the link.

Another story not going to be picked up by our liberal illuminati media. When will the double standard end? I have a feeling that gun sales are going to sky rockets if the prince of kenya gets elected.
A multi-volume chronology and reference guide set detailing three years of the Mexican Drug War between 2010 and 2012.
Rantburg.com and borderlandbeat.com correspondent and author Chris Covert presents his first non-fiction work detailing
the drug and gang related violence in Mexico.
Chris gives us Mexican press dispatches of drug and gang war violence
over three years, presented in a multi volume set intended to chronicle the death, violence and mayhem which has
dominated Mexico for six years.
Rantburg was assembled from recycled algorithms in the United States of America. No
trees were destroyed in the production of this weblog. We did hurt some, though. Sorry.
