What the heck is a 'community organizer'? Sounds like an agitator to me. I mean, his mentor in early life was Frank Marshall Davis, a known communist and anti-white racist activist, who was on the FBI's Security Index. Now, does that make Obama a communist or a racist? No, but it does bring troubling thoughts about his true motivation. I mean, he studied at the knees of Davis (referred to as "Frank" in his book "Dreams From My Father", where he says he went often to Frank for advice and counsel), Wiliam Ayers (a domestic terrorist), Jeremiah Wright (a racist, bigot preacher), he bought his house at below-market value from a convicted felon slumlord (Tony Rezko). Thing is, his associations frighten me. He seems to be the Manchurian Candidate.
He's actually only spent 143 days of actual work as a senator (count it up; that's less than 6 months). The rest of the time, he's been campaigning.Quote:

Obama voted present more than 130 times in the Illinois state senate. I wouldn't trust him to bake a cake because that would require far too many decisions for him.
And how's this for hope and change:

Barack Obama has voted with a majority of his Democratic colleagues 96.0% of the time during the current Congress. This percentage does not include votes in which Obama did not vote.
Obama chairs two subcommittees neither of which he has actually led.

Dec. 29, 2007 |
Doubts about Barack Obama's presidential credentials have crystallized during the past two weeks over his stewardship of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee's Subcommittee on European Affairs, which has convened no policy hearings since he took over as its chairman last January. That startling fact, first uncovered by Steve Clemons, who blogs on the Washington Note, prompted acid comment in Europe about the Illinois senator's failure to visit the continent since assuming the committee post, and even speculation that he had never traveled there except for a short stopover in London.
No wonder he's so admired. He reminds me of the kid that wants to be everyone's friend. He speaks well but won't commit to anything of importance (unless he did it by mistake which he undoubtedly later will make excuses and apologies for)Quote:
Obama responded: “Well, first of all, I became chairman of this committee at the beginning of this campaign, at the beginning of 2007. So it is true that we haven’t had oversight hearings on Afghanistan.”
