Obama looks to become next President

Ok now what. Will life really change that much for me. We shall see.

Oh well, I'll still get up in the morning and go to work like normal. I need to run for office. I am concerned for the kids and what our country will be like in 30 years.

Looks like we will definitely get some change in Washington.

Mystery Contributions Flood Obama

One of America most brillants minds Thomas Sowell had the following to say about Obama. http://www.tsowell.com/

"Senator Obama is running on an image that is directly the opposite of what he has been doing for two decades. His escapes from his past have been as remarkable as the great escapes of Houdini.”

Obama's campaign finance fraud

I think I have posted more in the last two days than I have in the last 2 years. This election has got me fired up and unfortunately it appears that all of the information that is available regarding Obama questionable activities are not being heard.  

Neil Stevens has a very good in depth look at how Obama has raised so much money so quickly. Click here for the full story.  This is a close Presidential race even though Obama has raise almost 5 times more than McCain has.  

Here is another report that explores the Obama's campaign fund raising tactics that again have gone unreported by most the national media.  Click here for more info Obama Accepting Untraceable Donations.  

Did Obama Write "Dreams from My Father" ... Or Did Ayers?

I know the main stream media would consider this information as extreme right wing scare tactics, but why hasn't this really been explored?  It is totally amazing how Obama has totally pulled the wool over the Democratic Parties eyes.    Click here to read the complete story from Andy McCarthy. Amazing how much information is out there about Obama questionable past and no one is really talking about it.   Check out what Jack Cashill has also reported on this subject as well.  

I am not scared that Obama may get elected.  What worries me is that Barack Obama is electable in the first place.  How has this great country got to this point?

Obama Explains National Anthem Stance

Early this year, I bellieve in Septmeber retired Air Force General Bill Ginn asked Obama to explain why he doesn't follow protocol when the National Anthem is played. The General also stated to the Senator that according to the United States Code, Title 36, Chapter 10, Sec. 171... During rendition of the national anthem when the flag is displayed, all present except those in uniform are expected to stand at attention facing the flag with the right hand over the heart. At the very least, 'Stand and Face It'.

Senator Obama stated 'As I've said about the flag pin, I don't want to be perceived as taking sides', Obama said. 'There are a lot of people in the world to whom the American flag is a symbol of oppression'. And the anthem itself conveys a war-like message. You know, the bombs bursting in air and all. It should be swapped or something less parochial and less bellicose. I like the song 'I'd Like To Teach the World To Sing.' If that were our anthem, then I might salute it. 'We should consider reinventing our National Anthem as well as redesigning our Flag to better offer our enemies hope and love. It's my intention, if elected, to disarm America to the level of acceptance to our Middle East Brethren. If we as a Nation of warring people, should conduct ourselves as the nations of Islam, whereas peace prevails, perhaps a state or period of mutual concord would exist between our governments. When I become President, I will seek a pact or agreement to end hostilities between those who have been at war or in a state of enmity, and a freedom from disquieting oppressive thoughts. We as a Nation have placed upon the nations of Islam an unfair injustice. My wife disrespects the Flag for many personal reasons. Together she and I have attended several flag burning ceremonies in the past, many years ago. 'She has her views and I have mine'. Of course now, I have found myself about to become the President of the United States and I have put aside my hatred. I will use my power to bring CHANGE to this Nation, and offer the people a new path of hope. My wife and I look forward to becoming our Country's First Family. Indeed, CHANGE is about to overwhelm the United States of America .'

Wow!

News Busted

The New Digital World

This presidential election is one for the history books. I turned 40 this past April and haven't really cared or paid to much attention to Politics until I was 30 yars old. How much can a President really impact my day to day life anyway? Well while Bush has been in office I have received several checks from the stimulus package that directly impacted my check book in the form of cold hard cash. Which I always like. This was basically my money anyway Congress just decided to give the money back to me. As a get older I find myself getting more interested in what is happening in both local and national politics.

In a very short period of time access to information has gone from 4 TV channels and handful of radio stations to hundreds of cable TV shows, 1000's of satellite radio stations on top of the local radio stations, and do not forget the Internet. This new Digital World has created to much information for the average pin head to digest. Recently I read an article from Harry Lewis, who is a computer science professor at Harvard. (Click here for the story)

In this article written for the Boston Herald Harry mentions that the interactivity of the media, the atomization of knowledge and the premium on rapid response result in a collective loss of wisdom, judgment and perspective? It is amzing how incorrect information can be posted with little if any consequence.

For instance, recent blogs and other web media site reported that if Obama wins, he is going to be sworn in on a Koran instead of the Bible. Or that Trig isn't SarahPalin's baby, it's her daughter Bristol's. Or, Obama refuses to say the Pledge of Allegiance. Here's the list of books Palin wanted to ban from the library ...

All these claims, none of them true, turned up in the e-mail inboxes of millions of Americans this summer. In spite of both campaigns' efforts to correct the record about their candidates, the rumors linger on and spread. Amazing how the national media used to be objective. Or at least that is what we are told. Growing up in the 70's and graduated from High School in '86 I never really paid attention, but now it is so obvious that Keith Oberman is a very Liberal supporter of the Democrats. NBC and CBS are so one sided in their reporting it is hard to take anything they report seriously. The good thing about all of this new technologies we have at our finger tips is that the average person can Google just about anything and verify information as a way to Fact Check what a particular candidate says or news report. Using site like factcheck.org or snopes.com can debunk most inaccurate reports.

So eventually these stories get sorted out and corrected right? Not really. The impact can be huge and sometime irreversible. Harry Lewis point out in his article the destructive nature of what can happen. On Sept. 7, a Bloomberg News online site posted a headline about the bankruptcy of United Airlines. Within minutes, the company's stock dropped from US$11 to $3, wiping out a billion dollars in networth. The headline was erroneous. A news story from 2002, when United actually had declared bankruptcy, inexplicably crawled out of its digital cave on Sept. 6 and turned up as a Google search result. Human negligence (anyone reading the story itself would have realized that it was not current) and urgency to spread the word (anyone delaying a response for a few seconds might lose millions of dollars) combined to produce the implosion.

So are we as a nation getting dumber becasue we have access to much information?
