DavePalin Debate Prep
NYTimes.com has a good article on the debate prep and her actual debates but still manages to help the McCain campaign by lowering expectations.
She staked out a populist stance against oil companies and projected a fresh, down-to-earth face at a time when voters wanted change. That helped her soundly defeat Frank H. Murkowski, the unpopular Republican governor, in the primary and former Gov. Tony Knowles in the general election.
Her debating style was rarely confrontational, and she appeared confident. In contrast to today, when she seems unversed on several important issues, she demonstrated fluency on certain subjects, particularly oil and gas development.
But just as she does now, Ms. Palin often spoke in generalities and showed scant aptitude for developing arguments beyond a talking point or two. Her sentences were distinguished by their repetition of words, by the use of the phrase "here in Alaska" and for gaps. On paper, her sentences would have been difficult to diagram...
...These tendencies could fuzz her meaning and lead her into linguistic cul-de-sacs. She often used less than her allotted time and ended her answers abruptly
But check the last paragraph
"It's been a year today that I've been on the campaign trail," Ms. Palin responded, "attending many, many more forums, more debates, than either one of you, Tony and Andrew, because I had a primary opponent. You know, you got to have the balls to take it on in the early part of a campaign, and not just go right to the big show."
I'm betting that her current coaches are probably telling her that saying "balls" in a debate, may be effective, but they'd rather avoid it. Heh. But yes, Sarah Palin: experienced debater. Welcome to the show.

Sarah Palin will beat Biden senseless in the debate.
First Biden will start out condescending and act like Mr Fluffy
then go BALLISTIC. Maybe we can watch him have a stroke.
Now that will be interesting, since Hillary told Obama to take a
flying leap at a rolling doughnut and stuff his VP 'Job'.
Palin even by her enemies standards is a "Quick Study" and an
excellent speaker.
Biden has being Flip Flopping and bumbling around to years. Biden
can't get it right.
Obama doesn't even know how to discern between yes and no buttons in
the Senate.
Lets not even go into Obama's background and associates.
Some women possibly have started identifying
with Democratic Men who still believe in that "Dumb Old Girl
Syndrome". Democratic men are chauvinistic pigs and many of them have
a deviated hatred and fear of women. Not that there is anything wrong
with that.
Sarah Palin might have had a couple of hick ups and sputters but she will
be recognized by Americans, by voting time, to be as bright and the highly
intelligent person she is.
Sarah Palin will kick 'ol Biden's fat butt back to Delaware where it
belongs.
John Edwards Mr Democrat knocks up a woman, cheating on his dying wife that just about defines the Democrats for me.
It is time for America to stop Discriminating against Women. First
Hillary gets 'cheated' then the Dems smear Sarah Palin.
I've heard enough from these male chauvinistic assholes.
So in advance of the debate Thursday.
Enough is Enough
Screw off Biden You Stinking Condescending Asshole.

Are We Becoming an Obama Police State?
Update 9/28/08 10:12 AM ET:
"The public prosecutor states that Missouri officials will be joining Obama’s Truth Squad to remind Missourians that Barack Obama is a “Christian.” Does that mean that Missouri police will threaten and possibly arrest anyone who questions Obama’s religion? If Missouri public officials are SO concerned about truth-in-advertising, why don’t they open a non-partisan Truth Squad to review ALL ads?"
ALSO, be aware that the Obama campaign has sicced its legal team on stations in Pennsylvania and Ohio, urging them to refuse to broadcast NRA ads attacking Obama’s anti-gun positions. I’d like to see the results of Obama’s efforts thus far to intimidate media outlets; have any refused the ads? Public officials running for elected office are fair game when it comes to speech, the normal definition of libel does not apply. The Obama campaign knows that they have no legal basis to challenge critical speech and they don’t care; their actions are designed to get results via intimidation. The Missouri officials should be fired.
------------------------------------------------------
I am now officially afraid. If Barack Obama is elected, are we destined to become an Orwellian police state?
“Liberals” are defending Barack Obama’s use of tax-payer funded law enforcement officials in Missouri to threaten TV stations that run anti-Obama political advertisements.
“What Senator Obama and his helpers are doing is scandalous beyond words, the party that claims to be the party of Thomas Jefferson is abusing the justice system and offices of public trust to silence political criticism with threats of prosecution and criminal punishment.
“This abuse of the law for intimidation insults the most sacred principles and ideals of Jefferson. I can think of nothing more offensive to Jefferson’s thinking than using the power of the state to deprive Americans of their civil rights.
"WHAT IS OUR DEMOCRACY COMING TO"?? When a "Chicago thug" intimidates people on freedom of speech!!
In the name of Democracy, I say: lock the thugs up!

How are cerebral aneurysms treated?
Short Term Effects of Cocaine
• Increased energy
• Decreased appetite
• Mental alertness
• Increased heart rate/blood pressure
• Constricted blood vessels
• Increased temperature
• Dilated pupils
Long Term Effects of Cocaine
• Addiction
• Irritability and mood disturbances
• Restlessness
• Paranoia
• Auditory hallucinations
Cocaine is a powerfully addictive drug. Once having tried cocaine, an individual may have difficulty predicting or controlling the extent to which he or she will continue to use the drug. Cocaine's stimulant and addictive effects are thought to be primarily a result of its ability to inhibit the reabsorption of dopamine by nerve cells. Dopamine is released as part of the brain's reward system, and is either directly or indirectly involved in the addictive properties of every major drug of abuse.
An appreciable tolerance to cocaine's high may develop, with many addicts reporting that they seek but fail to achieve as much pleasure as they did from their first experience. Some users will frequently increase their doses to intensify and prolong the euphoric effects. While tolerance to the high can occur, users can also become more sensitive (sensitization) to cocaine's anesthetic and convulsant effects, without increasing the dose taken. This increased sensitivity may explain some deaths occurring after apparently low doses of cocaine.
Use of cocaine in a binge, during which the drug is taken repeatedly and at increasingly high doses, leads to a state of increasing irritability, restlessness, and paranoia. This may result in a full-blown paranoid psychosis, in which the individual loses touch with reality and experiences auditory hallucinations.
Medical Consequences of Cocaine Abuse
• Cardiovascular Effects
o Heart rhythm disturbances
o Heart attacks
• Respiratory Effects
o Chest pain
o Respiratory failure
• Neurological Effects
o Strokes
o Seizures and headaches
• Gastrointestinal Complications
o Abdominal pain
o Nausea
There are enormous medical complications associated with cocaine use. Some of the most frequent complications are cardiovascular effects, including disturbances in heart rhythm and heart attacks; such respiratory effects as chest pain and respiratory failure; neurological effects, including strokes, seizure, and headaches; and gastrointestinal complications, including abdominal pain and nausea.
Cocaine use has been linked to many types of heart disease. Cocaine has been found to trigger chaotic heart rhythms, called ventricular fibrillation; accelerate heartbeat and breathing; and increase blood pressure and body temperature. Physical symptoms may include chest pain, nausea, blurred vision, fever, muscle spasms, convulsions and coma.
Different routes of cocaine administration can produce different adverse effects. Regularly snorting cocaine, for example, can lead to loss of sense of smell, nosebleeds, problems with swallowing, hoarseness, and an overall irritation of the nasal septum, which can lead to a chronically inflamed, runny nose. Ingested cocaine can cause severe bowel gangrene, due to reduced blood flow. And, persons who inject cocaine have puncture marks and "tracks," most commonly in their forearms. Intravenous cocaine users may also experience an allergic reaction, either to the drug, or to some additive in street cocaine, which can result, in severe cases, in death. Because cocaine has a tendency to decrease food intake, many chronic cocaine users lose their appetites and can experience significant weight loss and malnourishment.
Research has revealed a potentially dangerous interaction between cocaine and alcohol. Taken in combination, the two drugs are converted by the body to cocaethylene. Cocaethylene has a longer duration of action in the brain and is more toxic than either drug alone. While more research needs to be done, it is noteworthy that the mixture of cocaine and alcohol is the most common two-drug combination that results in drug-related death.

They will do anything to destroy Sarah Palin.
They will do anything to elect Obama President
— the most leftwing candidate in history.
Only you can stop them.
Vote MCCAIN PALIN 08
As I write this letter, the far Left — the Obama campaign, the Democratic Party headed by Howard Dean and the major (liberal) media—are all working in overdrive to destroy and smear Sarah Palin.
They believe if they can destroy this courageous young woman and popular governor, they will end John McCain’s bid for president.
Just this week, commentator Bill Maher ridiculed Sarah’s baby son who has Down's syndrome. These people are absolutely despicable.
They have one goal: Put Barack Obama — the most radical left-winger ever nominated by the Democratic Party — in the Oval Office. .
We are fighting to expose Barack Obama’s radical agenda and defend Sarah Palin and John McCain from the liberal media. Make no mistake about it: Barack Obama has very powerful backers.
Obama promised he would abide by campaign finance limits, as John McCain has agreed to. He lied. This week alone, Obama raised $8 million! He could easily spend $500 million during his whole campaign to buy the White House. Worse, John McCain and Sarah Palin have their hands tied with public financing limits.
We need to tell the American people the truth about Obama, his agenda and his radical associates.
The truth about Obama’s radical tax agenda, including:
his plan to almost double capital gains tax
his plan to let the Bush tax cuts expire
his plan to raise gasoline taxes
his plan to nationalize healthcare
How for 20 years he sat silently as his minister, the radical preacher
Jeremiah Wright, said he hated America — the same preacher who
blamed the 9/11 attacks on OUR OWN GOVERNMENT.
The involvement of convicted felon Tony Resko in the purchase of Obama's$1,300,000 home.
His despicable association with his friend William Ayers, who was on the FBI’s Most Wanted list for over 10 terrorist attacks.
The fact that at age 25, Obama was backed by a radical Muslim activist close to the Saudi royal family when he applied to Harvard Law School.
The Ayers Connection
William Charles Ayers and Barack Obama have been friends for decades.
There is clear evidence that their lives and dealings have been intertwined for many years. We have reason to believe that Obama and Ayers were friends way back in 1986. They even served together in 1995 on the Annenberg Challenge, overseeing the distribution of about $50 million to area schools. That same year, Ayers hosted Obama in his own home and donated to his campaign. What does the association between Ayers and Obama say about Obama’s political views and perspective?
Ayers was an anti-American, traitorous radical who will stop at nothing to push his hateful communist agenda. In the 1960s and 70s, he was a leader in the notorious underground terrorist group, the “Weathermen.” The Weathermen declared war on the United States government and they bombed over 30 establishments (leading to multiple fatalities, including police officers).
Obama's friend Bill Ayers
“Kill all the rich people. Break up their cars
and apartments. Bring the revolution home,
kill your parents, that’s where it’s really at.”
William Ayers
Ayers is unapologetic about his terrorist activities. Incredibly, on Sept. 11, 2001, Ayers is quoted by The New York Times as saying, “I don’t regret setting bombs … I feel we didn’t do enough.” How could a man like Obama associate with such a dangerous radical? And even defend him? And now Obama, Ayers friend, could be sitting in the White House next year — unless we tell the American people the unvarnished truth about them! We Must Defend Sarah Palin and John McCain. The major media have already decided who their candidate is: MSNBC host Chris Matthews says Barack Obama makes a “thrill” go up his leg when he hears him speak.
Oprah has picked your next president.
But you can stop Chris Matthews, Oprah and the rest of the liberal media. You can say we the American people will pick our president.

The major media have already decided who their candidate is: MSNBC host Chris Matthews says Barack Obama makes a “thrill” go up his leg when he hears him speak.
Oprah has picked your next president.
But you can stop Chris Matthews, Oprah and the rest of the liberal media. You can say we the American people will pick our president.

IS THE DEATH OF THE ARKANSAS DEMOCRATIC PARTY CHAIRMAN PART OF AN OBAMA BODY COUNT?
By Webster G. Tarpley
Washington, DC, Aug. 13 — This afternoon, Arkansas Democratic Party Chairman Bill Gwatney fell victim to what was evidently a political assassination. Gwatney was a major ally of Hillary and Bill Clinton, and was a leader of the strongly pro-Clinton Arkansas delegation to the upcoming Denver Democratic National Convention.
Gwatney’s Arkansas delegation was known to be a hotbed of anti-Obama sentiment, and was reportedly ready to walk out of the Denver convention if Senator Clinton were not to be treated fairly by the Howard Dean- Donna Brazile DNC leadership.
Observers in Washington are now asking whether the assassination of Gwatney can be read as attempted intimidation of the anti-Obama forces now gaining strength before the Denver convention.
Is the death of Bill Gwatney part of an Obama body count which already includes the names of Donald Young (the murdered gay choirmaster of Rev. Wright’s church) and possibly others?

Democrats are at it again. I doesn't surprise me that Baby Murderers would be upset about some psycho being fired for only Tasering someone. Sarah Palin is a great Governor and that corrupt psychotic Trooper should have been fired. If some African American had been Tasered the Democrats would be screaming "Police Brutality".***See clintons4mccain.com******* The Obama Files: Democrats and the Liberal Press need to be investigating Obama's Murdergate. A Democratic Party Official was gunned down in Arkansas. This Democrat was leading an anti Obama effort now he is dead. Where is Woodward and Bernstein? You see murder doesn't count for Democrats especially when you murder an enemy of Obama. Again, the Democrats are "baffled" for the Trooper being fired for only Tasering a person. Hell thats nothing compared to abortions and live birth murders.****************Stop Smearing Sarah Palin*****************

Secret, Foreign Money Floods Into Obama Campaign
Monday, September 29, 2008 9:23 PM
By: Kenneth R. Timmerman
More than half of the whopping $426.9 million Barack Obama has raised has come from small donors whose names the Obama campaign won't disclose.
And questions have arisen about millions more in foreign donations the Obama campaign has received that apparently have not been vetted as legitimate.
Obama has raised nearly twice that of John McCain's campaign, according to new campaign finance report.
But because of Obama’s high expenses during the hotly contested Democratic primary season and an early decision to forgo public campaign money and the spending limits it imposes, all that cash has not translated into a financial advantage — at least, not yet.
The Obama campaign and the Democratic National Committee began September with $95 million in cash, according to reports filed with the Federal Election Commission (FEC).
The McCain camp and the Republican National Committee had $94 million, because of an influx of $84 million in public money.
But Obama easily could outpace McCain by $50 million to $100 million or more in new donations before Election Day, thanks to a legion of small contributors whose names and addresses have been kept secret.
Unlike the McCain campaign, which has made its complete donor database available online, the Obama campaign has not identified donors for nearly half the amount he has raised, according to the Center for Responsive Politics (CRP).
Federal law does not require the campaigns to identify donors who give less than $200 during the election cycle. However, it does require that campaigns calculate running totals for each donor and report them once they go beyond the $200 mark.
Surprisingly, the great majority of Obama donors never break the $200 threshold.
“Contributions that come under $200 aggregated per person are not listed,” said Bob Biersack, a spokesman for the FEC. “They don’t appear anywhere, so there’s no way of knowing who they are.”
The FEC breakdown of the Obama campaign has identified a staggering $222.7 million as coming from contributions of $200 or less. Only $39.6 million of that amount comes from donors the Obama campaign has identified.
It is the largest pool of unidentified money that has ever flooded into the U.S. election system, before or after the McCain-Feingold campaign finance reforms of 2002.
Biersack would not comment on whether the FEC was investigating the huge amount of cash that has come into Obama’s coffers with no public reporting.
But Massie Ritsch, a spokesman for CRP, a campaign-finance watchdog group, dismissed the scale of the unreported money.
“We feel comfortable that it isn’t the $20 donations that are corrupting a campaign,” he told Newsmax.
But those small donations have added up to more than $200 million, all of it from unknown and unreported donors.
Ritsch acknowledges that there is skepticism about all the unreported money, especially in the Obama campaign coffers.
“We and seven other watchdog groups asked both campaigns for more information on small donors,” he said. “The Obama campaign never responded,” whereas the McCain campaign “makes all its donor information, including the small donors, available online.”
The rise of the Internet as a campaign funding tool raises new questions about the adequacy of FEC requirements on disclosure. In pre-Internet fundraising, almost all political donations, even small ones, were made by bank check, leaving a paper trail and limiting the amount of fraud.
But credit cards used to make donations on the Internet have allowed for far more abuse.
“While FEC practice is to do a post-election review of all presidential campaigns, given their sluggish metabolism, results can take three or four years,” said Ken Boehm, the chairman of the conservative National Legal and Policy Center.
Already, the FEC has noted unusual patterns in Obama campaign donations among donors who have been disclosed because they have gone beyond the $200 minimum.
FEC and Mr. Doodad Pro
When FEC auditors have questions about contributions, they send letters to the campaign’s finance committee requesting additional information, such as the complete address or employment status of the donor.
Many of the FEC letters that Newsmax reviewed instructed the Obama campaign to “redesignate” contributions in excess of the finance limits.
Under campaign finance laws, an individual can donate $2,300 to a candidate for federal office in both the primary and general election, for a total of $4,600. If a donor has topped the limit in the primary, the campaign can “redesignate” the contribution to the general election on its books.
In a letter dated June 25, 2008, the FEC asked the Obama campaign to verify a series of $25 donations from a contributor identified as “Will, Good” from Austin, Texas.
Mr. Good Will listed his employer as “Loving” and his profession as “You.”
A Newsmax analysis of the 1.4 million individual contributions in the latest master file for the Obama campaign discovered 1,000 separate entries for Mr. Good Will, most of them for $25.
In total, Mr. Good Will gave $17,375.
Following this and subsequent FEC requests, campaign records show that 330 contributions from Mr. Good Will were credited back to a credit card. But the most recent report, filed on Sept. 20, showed a net cumulative balance of $8,950 — still well over the $4,600 limit.
There can be no doubt that the Obama campaign noticed these contributions, since Obama’s Sept. 20 report specified that Good Will’s cumulative contributions since the beginning of the campaign were $9,375.
In an e-mailed response to a query from Newsmax, Obama campaign spokesman Ben LaBolt pledged that the campaign would return the donations. But given the slowness with which the campaign has responded to earlier FEC queries, there’s no guarantee that the money will be returned before the Nov. 4 election.
Similarly, a donor identified as “Pro, Doodad,” from “Nando, NY,” gave $19,500 in 786 separate donations, most of them for $25. For most of these donations, Mr. Doodad Pro listed his employer as “Loving” and his profession as “You,” just as Good Will had done.
But in some of them, he didn’t even go this far, apparently picking letters at random to fill in the blanks on the credit card donation form. In these cases, he said he was employed by “VCX” and that his profession was “VCVC.”
Following FEC requests, the Obama campaign began refunding money to Doodad Pro in February 2008. In all, about $8,425 was charged back to a credit card. But that still left a net total of $11,165 as of Sept. 20, way over the individual limit of $4,600.
Here again, LaBolt pledged that the contributions would be returned but gave no date.
In February, after just 93 donations, Doodad Pro had already gone over the $2,300 limit for the primary. He was over the $4,600 limit for the general election one month later.
In response to FEC complaints, the Obama campaign began refunding money to Doodad Pro even before he reached these limits. But his credit card was the gift that kept on giving. His most recent un-refunded contributions were on July 7, when he made 14 separate donations, apparently by credit card, of $25 each.
Just as with Mr. Good Will, there can be no doubt that the Obama campaign noticed the contributions, since its Sept. 20 report specified that Doodad’s cumulative contributions since the beginning of the campaign were $10,965.
Foreign Donations
And then there are the overseas donations — at least, the ones that we know about.
The FEC has compiled a separate database of potentially questionable overseas donations that contains more than 11,500 contributions totaling $33.8 million. More than 520 listed their “state” as “IR,” often an abbreviation for Iran. Another 63 listed it as “UK,” the United Kingdom.
More than 1,400 of the overseas entries clearly were U.S. diplomats or military personnel, who gave an APO address overseas. Their total contributions came to just $201,680.
But others came from places as far afield as Abu Dhabi, Addis Ababa, Beijing, Fallujah, Florence, Italy, and a wide selection of towns and cities in France.
Until recently, the Obama Web site allowed a contributor to select the country where he resided from the entire membership of the United Nations, including such friendly places as North Korea and the Islamic Republic of Iran.
Unlike McCain’s or Sen. Hillary Clinton’s online donation pages, the Obama site did not ask for proof of citizenship until just recently. Clinton’s presidential campaign required U.S. citizens living abroad to actually fax a copy of their passport before a donation would be accepted.
With such lax vetting of foreign contributions, the Obama campaign may have indirectly contributed to questionable fundraising by foreigners.
In July and August, the head of the Nigeria’s stock market held a series of pro-Obama fundraisers in Lagos, Nigeria’s largest city. The events attracted local Nigerian business owners.
At one event, a table for eight at one fundraising dinner went for $16,800. Nigerian press reports claimed sponsors raked in an estimated $900,000.
The sponsors said the fundraisers were held to help Nigerians attend the Democratic convention in Denver. But the Nigerian press expressed skepticism of that claim, and the Nigerian public anti-fraud commission is now investigating the matter.
Concerns about foreign fundraising have been raised by other anecdotal accounts of illegal activities.
In June, Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi gave a public speech praising Obama, claiming foreign nationals were donating to his campaign.
“All the people in the Arab and Islamic world and in Africa applauded this man,” the Libyan leader said. “They welcomed him and prayed for him and for his success, and they may have even been involved in legitimate contribution campaigns to enable him to win the American presidency..."
Though Gadhafi asserted that fundraising from Arab and African nations were “legitimate,” the fact is that U.S. federal law bans any foreigner from donating to a U.S. election campaign.
The rise of the Internet and use of credit cards have made it easier for foreign nationals to donate to American campaigns, especially if they claim their donation is less than $200.
Campaign spokesman LaBolt cited several measures that the campaign has adopted to “root out fraud,” including a requirement that anyone attending an Obama fundraising event overseas present a valid U.S. passport, and a new requirement that overseas contributors must provide a passport number when donating online.
One new measure that might not appear obvious at first could be frustrating to foreigners wanting to buy campaign paraphernalia such as T-shirts or bumper stickers through the online store.
In response to an investigation conducted by blogger Pamela Geller, who runs the blog Atlas Shrugs, the Obama campaign has locked down the store.
Geller first revealed on July 31 that donors from the Gaza strip had contributed $33,000 to the Obama campaign through bulk purchases of T-shirts they had shipped to Gaza.
The online campaign store allows buyers to complete their purchases by making an additional donation to the Obama campaign.
A pair of Palestinian brothers named Hosam and Monir Edwan contributed more than $31,300 to the Obama campaign in October and November 2007, FEC records show.
Their largesse attracted the attention of the FEC almost immediately. In an April 15, 2008, report that examined the Obama campaign’s year-end figures for 2007, the FEC asked that some of these contributions be reassigned.
The Obama camp complied sluggishly, prompting a more detailed admonishment form the FEC on July 30.
The Edwan brothers listed their address as “GA,” as in Georgia, although they entered “Gaza” or “Rafah Refugee camp” as their city of residence on most of the online contribution forms.
According to the Obama campaign, they wrongly identified themselves as U.S. citizens, via a voluntary check-off box at the time the donations were made.
Many of the Edwan brothers’ contributions have been purged from the FEC database, but they still can be found in archived versions available for CRP and other watchdog groups.
The latest Obama campaign filing shows that $891.11 still has not been refunded to the Edwan brothers, despite repeated FEC warnings and campaign claims that all the money was refunded in December.
A Newsmax review of the Obama campaign finance filings found that the FEC had asked for the redesignation or refund of 53,828 donations, totaling just under $30 million.
But none involves the donors who never appear in the Obama campaign reports, which the CRP estimates at nearly half the $426.8 million the Obama campaign has raised to date.
Many of the small donors participated in online “matching” programs, which allows them to hook up with other Obama supporters and eventually share e-mail addresses and blogs.
The Obama Web site described the matching contribution program as similar to a public radio fundraising drive.
“Our goal is to bring 50,000 new donors into our movement by Friday at midnight,” campaign manager David Plouffe e-mailed supporters on Sept. 15. “And if you make your first online donation today, your gift will go twice as far. A previous donor has promised to match every dollar you donate.”
FEC spokesman Biersack said he was unfamiliar with the matching donation drive. But he said that if donations from another donor were going to be reassigned to a new donor, as the campaign suggested, “the two people must agree” to do so.
This type of matching drive probably would be legal as long as the matching donor had not exceeded the $2,300 per-election limit, he said.
Obama campaign spokesman LaBolt said, “We have more than 2.5 million donors overall, hundreds of thousands of which have participated in this program.”
Until now, the names of those donors and where they live have remained anonymous — and the federal watchdog agency in charge of ensuring that the presidential campaigns play by the same rules has no tools to find out.

OBAMA TRIED TO STALL GIS' IRAQ WITHDRAWAL
LONG VIEW: Barack Obama tours Iraq with Gen. David Petraeus in July, when he sought to stall any agreement for US troop withdrawal until President Bush left office.

WHILE campaigning in public for a speedy withdrawal of US troops from Iraq, Sen. Barack Obama has tried in private to persuade Iraqi leaders to delay an agreement on a draw-down of the American military presence.
According to Iraqi Foreign Minister Hoshyar Zebari, Obama made his demand for delay a key theme of his discussions with Iraqi leaders in Baghdad in July.
"He asked why we were not prepared to delay an agreement until after the US elections and the formation of a new administration in Washington," Zebari said in an interview.
Obama insisted that Congress should be involved in negotiations on the status of US troops - and that it was in the interests of both sides not to have an agreement negotiated by the Bush administration in its "state of weakness and political confusion."
"However, as an Iraqi, I prefer to have a security agreement that regulates the activities of foreign troops, rather than keeping the matter open." Zebari says.
Though Obama claims the US presence is "illegal," he suddenly remembered that Americans troops were in Iraq within the legal framework of a UN mandate. His advice was that, rather than reach an accord with the "weakened Bush administration," Iraq should seek an extension of the UN mandate.
While in Iraq, Obama also tried to persuade the US commanders, including Gen. David Petraeus, to suggest a "realistic withdrawal date." They declined.
Obama has made many contradictory statements with regard to Iraq. His latest position is that US combat troops should be out by 2010. Yet his effort to delay an agreement would make that withdrawal deadline impossible to meet.
Supposing he wins, Obama's administration wouldn't be fully operational before February - and naming a new ambassador to Baghdad and forming a new negotiation team might take longer still.
By then, Iraq will be in the throes of its own campaign season. Judging by the past two elections, forming a new coalition government may then take three months. So the Iraqi negotiating team might not be in place until next June.
Then, judging by how long the current talks have taken, restarting the process from scratch would leave the two sides needing at least six months to come up with a draft accord. That puts us at May 2010 for when the draft might be submitted to the Iraqi parliament - which might well need another six months to pass it into law.

WHILE campaigning in public for a speedy withdrawal of US troops from Iraq, Sen. Barack Obama has tried in private to persuade Iraqi leaders to delay an agreement on a draw-down of the American military presence.
According to Iraqi Foreign Minister Hoshyar Zebari, Obama made his demand for delay a key theme of his discussions with Iraqi leaders in Baghdad in July.

Change we can believe ?????
A Police Stae We can Believe In
Barack Obama and his Movement followers have taken a dangerous step to the right. Their new Truth Squad in Missouri has enlisted sheriffs, county prosecutors, and other law enforcement officers to investigate "lying" by any person or group opposed to Obama politically.
St. Louis County Prosecutors and Obama supporters Bob McCulloch and Jennifer Joyce, along with Jefferson County Sheriff Glen Boyer, have joined the Obama Truth Squad in Saint Louis to fight supposed lies told by citizens and citizen groups about their chosen candidate.
This is chilling. It is a decided and brazen step toward a Police State.
I received an email from an Obama supporter insisting that the McCain Campaign also has Truth Squads set up in key states to challenge rumors and mischaracterizations (or "lies") about McCain's record and character.
I looked into it, and the Obama supporter is correct: McCain does have Truth Squads. Here's the difference: McCain's Truth Squads are comprised of Republican elected officials and sympathetic surrogates who respond locally and loudly to attacks on McCain. Fair enough. The Obama Campaign should, and does, do the same thing. When Gov. Ed Rendell gets on PA media and defends Obama against attacks, he's doing exactly what he's supposed to -- campaigning and defending his party's candidate. No problem.
Here's the problem: When the person knocking on your door to challenge your political statements is also WEARING A BADGE and has the STATE PROSECUTOR BEHIND him with his PROSECUTOR'S HAT ON, you are BEING THREATENED BY THE STATE.
Jennifer Joyce and Bob McCulloch are acting as Officers of the Court when they tell television station KMOV in St. Louis that there are criminal and civil laws on the books that MAY be used to prosecute citizens or citizens' groups for "lying" about Obama. Sheriff Glen Boyer is acting as a SHERIFF when he implies that he's going to "go after" those who "lie" about Obama.
TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE in a democratic society. Totally unacceptable.
This is what the First Amendment was written for, Folks.

Copies this blog entry
makes real sense. Who wants a dopehead for President.
I read the posts about Obama's Cocaine Abuse. The links proved true Obama is brain damaged and he has and will continue to have severe health problems.
I called a Medical School Researcher in Pharmacology and he confirmed, there are severe and long term Health Problems for Cocaine Abusers. He state there is permanent physiological damage including Psychiatric issues. One does of Crack Cocaine and you are fighting that addiction for life.
Personally I see Obama strutting around and I think he is still using dope.

Hey Bill, I also over estimated the American People, I can't believe they can't see through Obama. Have you noticed how many journalists are comparing him and his campaign to HITLER? You need to set your woman hatred aside and see the truth about Obama. He is marxist, muslim, not a natural born citizen (check the rules of eligibility) arrogant, sociopathic, radical, empty, juvenile, and not at all ready to lead. If Obama is elected and the gov't igmores his citizenship status, we are doomed.

Obama has been to Rehab for COCAINE ADDICTION.

*******OBAMA'S COCAINE ABUSE*********************
Watch Obama and see if he exhibits these symptoms.
Cocaine is a powerfully addictive drug. Once having tried cocaine, an
individual may have difficulty predicting or controlling the extent to
which he or she will continue to use the drug. Cocaine's stimulant and
addictive effects are thought to be primarily a result of its ability
to inhibit the reabsorption of dopamine by nerve cells. Dopamine is
released as part of the brain's reward system, and is either directly
or indirectly involved in the addictive properties of every major drug
of abuse.
An appreciable tolerance to cocaine's high may develop, with many
addicts reporting that they seek but fail to achieve as much pleasure
as they did from their first experience. Some users will frequently
increase their doses to intensify and prolong the euphoric effects.
While tolerance to the high can occur, users can also become more
sensitive (sensitization) to cocaine's anesthetic and convulsant
effects, without increasing the dose taken. This increased
sensitivity may explain some deaths occurring after apparently low
doses of cocaine.
Use of cocaine in a binge, during which the drug is taken repeatedly
and at increasingly high doses, leads to a state of increasing
irritability, restlessness, and paranoia. This may result in a
full-blown paranoid psychosis, in which the individual loses touch
with reality and experiences auditory hallucinations.

. Increased energy
. Decreased appetite
. Mental alertness
. Increased heart rate/blood pressure
. Constricted blood vessels
. Increased temperature
. Dilated pupils

Long Term Effects of Cocaine
. Addiction
. Irritability and mood disturbances
. Restlessness

Medical Consequences of Cocaine Abuse

There are enormous medical complications associated with cocaine use.
Some of the most frequent complications are cardiovascular effects,
including disturbances in heart rhythm and heart attacks; such
respiratory effects as chest pain and respiratory failure;
neurological effects, including strokes, seizure, and headaches; and
gastrointestinal complications, including abdominal pain and nausea.
This enough for me.
