	<title>Comments on: The politics of hate</title>
	<link>http://blogs.e-rockford.com/applesauce/2008/10/14/the-politics-of-hate/</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>Dingdong,

All that crap has been rehashed before.  Just because you didn't bother to read it is your problem.  Look it up in Snopes.  They knocked down all of the phony accusations, such as BOTH parents had to be citizens, etc.  He submitted a birth certificate.  (If you didn't get a copy, oh, well.)  He was born in Hawaii.  Hawaii was already a state.  Obama's mother was a U.S. citizen.  And he would have had to prove this to be sworn in to the Senate.  And don't forget, John McCain was born in Panama.  And don't call cheap, rightwing accusations "facts".  They're not.  They're just BS perpetrated by a bunch of snivelling wimps.</description>

		<description>Here is the problems Craig, why won't he produce a physical birth certificate. There are several articles that refer to him as being Kenyan born. Obama’s grandmother on his father’s side, his half-brother and half-sister all claim Obama was born not in Hawaii but in Kenya. Also, was he adopted by his mother second husband? He took on the name Barry Soetoro, if so why did he not list that as an alias when he registered as an attorney and was he an Indonesian citizen as listed on his school record? These are all valid questions based on facts. But I know we can't ask him these questions, he is the messiah. And what about all my other questions?</description>

		<description>Echo,

More BS?

Obama met with Ayers to discuss education programs.  That's not terrorist.  McCain met with and donated money to Contra thugs who were actively (NOT FORMERLY) trying to overthrow a sovereign government.  That IS terrorist.

Dingdong,

More BS from you too?

Obama's mother was a U.S. citizen.  Obama was born in Hawaii.  That makes him a U.S. citizen on both counts.  Now, how do we know you are not an illegal?  Or is Dingdong your real name?

Maybe it's time some of you neo-cons started dealing with reality.</description>

		<description>I don't think that Obama is a terrorist but his background has a lot of holes in it that open him up to questions. Let me list those:

Why won't he physically produce a birth certificate and adoption records for the lawsuit against him concerning his viability to be president?

He was listed as having a religion as a Muslim on school documents as a child, this may have been a formality just to get him into the school. Never really explained.

He went to a church for 20 years that was highly racist and you call these people on the above video ignorant. Do you call the people and pastor at Trinity United ignorant? They preached Black Liberation Theology, They are also friendly with anti-Semite Farrakhan.

Obama will not open up his records at the universities he attended.

The Ayers thing, somewhat overdone. Obama needs to do a better job of explaining this.

Needs to better job of explaining his relationship to ACORN.

Rezko seems a little shady. 

When he tells a voter he wants to "spead the wealth around", I think that tells you about his intentions.

Obama admits he got advice from Frank Marshall Davis a communist.

Jesse Jackson is not helping.

		<description>I think Senator Obama has "Bodies" buried (meant as a metaphorical term for misdeeds, misassociations, and misdeeds carried out by those misassociates), just like every single other politician.

He just didn't bury those as well as some of the more senior politicians who have played the game for so much longer.

He has associated with a domestic terrorist, and, his political career was launched from Bill Ayers' living room.  And, why would Ayers do that if they didn't share enough political goals and viewpoints?  What else would Ayers stand to gain by promoting him in such a manner?

I don't think Senator Obama is a terrorist.  I do think he has involved himself with and received stipends from the wrong people, though.</description>
