	<title>Comments on: Imagine if Obama had been linked to this group</title>
	<link>http://blogs.e-rockford.com/applesauce/2008/09/02/imagine-if-obama-had-been-linked-to-this-group/</link>
	<description>Pat Cunningham offers an unabashedly liberal perspective on national politics. A note of caution: The language gets a litttle salty on some of the sites to which this blog links. So, don't say you weren't warned. By the way, this blog's name is inspired by the Will Rogers quote, "All politics is applesauce."</description>

		<description>it isn't "may or may not" have been a part of this group. 

it is a matter of public record that todd palin was a card carrying member of this group until 2002. after that, his association with them is foggy but before that date are very clear. 

and it isn't aip who "may or may not" want to secede from th eunion... it is their "ultimate goal" to vote on secession from the union as plainly stated on their own website. 

these are facts. these are not just allegations made like they are against obama... these are absolutely proven facts that sarah palin knows exactly what this group is all about as alaska is not that big and her husband was a member.. and she still continued to "pal" around with this hate-america extremist group.. her most recent welcoming video for the secessionist convention of this year legitimizes its agenda and their beliefs. 

why isn't she denouncing this group for their hatred of america? 

also.. their is some allegations that the founder was "palling" around with iran to back him up at the u.n. im still looking into it.</description>

		<description>Peter-Please feel free to explain to me how the Employee Free Choice Act is a benefit to either employees (not Union Management) or the American economy as a whole. I'd be delighted with the education.</description>

		<description>A Smidge off topic, But:

TEAMSTERS LOCAL #325 does not and never will support the Republican agenda to destroy Labor Rights.

Any Union Members who do or say differently are enjoying the benefits of Union Membership while undermining and betraying their fellow Union Members as well
as the American Labor force as a whole.

The Word of today: Character
Some got it, Some don't

Go Obama</description>

		<description>More of the William Ayers crap?  Apparently it doesn't matter to some of you morons that Obama was only 8 years old when Ayers was in the Weather Underground.  Was Sarah Palin involved also?  She's about the same age.  Maybe they were BOTH terrorists.  For that matter, John McCain is 72.  How do we know he was not in the Hitler Youth?  He's old enough.</description>

		<description>Pat-The Employee Free Choice Act is a sop to organized labor and would have the effect of making the US marketplace less competitive which would drive American jobs overseas. It would also eliminate an employees ability to cast a secret ballot. Exactly what part of that Act would you favor?
BTW, I am a card carrying Teamster.</description>

		<description>Mike: Upon cursory examination of the Employee Free Choice Act, I guess I'm for it.  I base that primarily on opposition to it by the Chamber of Commerce, which also has been opposed to the Family Time and Workplace Flexibility Act, Fair Minimum Wage Act and even the Family and Medical Leave Act.</description>

		<description>Mike: Four things; 1) I'm not interested in the subject you raise; 2) I frequently offer open threads where people like you can introduce subjects like the Employee Free Choice Act;  and 3) All threads are open to hijacking, as you've done with this one; 4) It's not my mission to address each and every political issue on this humble little blog; I picks 'em and chooses 'em as I please.</description>

		<description>Pat-any chance that you could start a thread where the issues of the campaign are actually discussed as opposed to the drivel above?
I might suggest the Employee Free Choice Act which Obama supports and McCain opposes.I know that this presents a danger in actually educating potential voters on the real issues but life is full of risks.
You are welcome.</description>

		<description>David - 

Please supply us with a little more information about -  "Obama\’s good Friend and colleague is an unrepentant terrorist that blew up the Pentagon and a police station and has said he wishes he had done more."  That is very interesting.  You ought to get in touch with the McCain campaign.  I'll bet they would be very interested.  So what is the name of this 'friend'?

p.s.  Are you out of your mind?  Did you ever have one?  Double up on the meds, they aren't working.</description>
