Speaking of hypocrisy…
Barack Obama has been slamming John McCain for employing registered lobbyists, but what about Obama’s own staff? Well, the Washington Post looked into this a few days ago and discovered Obama’s being a bit hypocritical when it comes to lobbyists. The co-director of Barack Obama’s presidential campaign in Puerto Rico is a Washington-based federal lobbyist [...]
McClellan Apologizes for His Hypocrisy
30. May 2008
As I had noted here, this was Press Secretary Scott McClellan‘s response to the tell-all book written by Richard Clarke in 2004: In 2004, McClellan said Clarke’s book, asserting the Bush administration failed to take timely action against al Qaeda, was “flat-out wrong.” He told reporters at a March 22, 2004 briefing, “Ask yourself why, [...]
Obama Received Socialist Endorsement in Chicago
30. May 2008
In 1992 a new political party, named the New Party, was formed to elect leftist candidates to public office. The two main organizations that formed the party’s backbone were ACORN and the Democratic Socialists of America.

Left Outraged Over McCain’s Use of Petraeus Image
30. May 2008
Outraged, I tell ‘ya! How dare a presidential candidate use an image of himself with a soldier in a political fashion! Oh, wait. Obama not only uses a photo of himself with a soldier on his campaign website, but it links to a 7:26 video of Obama rallying against the war.
Obama Secured Pork for Pfleger
30. May 2008
Yeah, as in the race-baiting Rev. Michael Pleger who claims Hillary cried because “a black man” was stealing her “show”. Pleger has long been a “friend of Trinity”, Obama’s church in Chicago, and apparently hasn’t been a stranger to Obama during that time, either. Back in May 2007, the Chicago Tribune reported: One of those [...]
Obama on Military Spending
30. May 2008
Fun fact: Not only does Barack Obama support unconditional negotiations with state sponsors of terror, but he supports scaling back our defense spending and stopping our recently NATO-endorsed missile shield! Don’t you want this guy in charge of protecting the country?

Obama’s Grandfather/Military Claim Doesn’t Add Up?
29. May 2008
According to research by WorldNetDaily, the story Barack Obama gives about his family’s military history doesn’t entirely add-up. During the Memorial Day speech in New Mexico, Obama suggested his grandfather, the late Stanley Dunham, engaged in combat. But the Democratic senator’s autobiography says his grandfather never saw “real combat.” Also, Army records apparently contradict Obama’s [...]
Mclellan an Obamacan?
29. May 2008
Which would explain his flip-flop on his “anti-tell-all book publication at the height of an election” stance. As a reader pointed out, Scott McClellan this morning sure sounded a lot like a guy who’s been listening to Barack Obama. It was, he said, time to move beyond the past 15 years of partisan division, and [...]

The International Atomic Energy agency is demanding an explanation from Iran, following evidence in the form of documents from 2004 that Iran continues its search for nukes.
