James O'Keefe and Hannah Giles are Liars (ACORN)

 

These shameful people who commited a propaganda campaign against the poor and against blacks just got finished being soft-ball interviewed by Fox News broadcaster Sean Hannity.

These people both lied on this same exact program in regards to the matter of being asked to leave ACORN offices in the process of their so-called "expose" which was in fact a racist-propaganda crusade funded by anti-Obama dollars.

These are the elements in which I would say that the Fox Broadcasting Company is not a "news agency" and is rightly banned from the White House press-pool.

This radical right wing lobby has proven its anti-society stance in that it refuses to retract the lies of O'Keefe and Giles even with hard evidence of this being part of the story at this stage. This group of anti-American slander artists are promiting the worse kind of coverage one could possibly create.

This agency may have bits and fractions of non-biased journalism but when a story that hurts their political agenda rears its head they care nothing for covering the facts and keeping the guests honest.

These people are enemies of American families and enemies of the truth.

 O'Keefe and Giles claim to have a "new video" coming out that Sean Hannity "can't wait to see." No doubt more anti-black propaganda designed specifically to wage war on the poor.

 There are not strong enough words to express my distaste for these spreaders of ungodly and racist lies in the public, and then to have this carade of a man on his comedy-program disguised as a news show still refuse to retract their venomous lies.

 It is obvious that Fox News is an enemy of the truth and an enemy of the poor. Shame on their false-Christian network. 

Jimmy Carter and The Race Card

"I think an overwhelming portion of the intensely demonstrated animosity toward President Barack Obama is based on the fact that he is a black man, that he's African-American," Carter told NBC News. "I live in the South, and I've seen the South come a long way, and I've seen the rest of the country that shares the South's attitude toward minority groups at that time, particularly African-Americans."

"That racism inclination still exists, and I think it's bubbled up to the surface because of belief among many white people -- not just in the South but around the country -- that African-Americans are not qualified to lead this great country. It's an abominable circumstance, and it grieves me and concerns me very deeply," Carter said.

The oldest son of U.S. Rep. Joe Wilson, Alan Wilson, has come to his father's defense in regards to a racial motivation to the uncouth interruption of President Obama during an address to a Joint-Session of Congress.

"There is not a racist bone in my dad's body," said Alan Wilson, an Iraq veteran who is running for state attorney general in South Carolina. "He doesn't even laugh at distasteful jokes. I won't comment on former President Carter, because I don't know President Carter. But I know my dad, and it's just not in him."

"It's unfortunate people make that jump. People can disagree — and appropriately disagree — on issues of substance, but when they make the jump to race it's absolutely ludicrous. My brothers and I were raised by our parents to respect everyone regardless of background or race."

I personally believe that former President Carter's words were the absolute truth. I doubt that Rep. Wilson was motivated by a direct, personal hatred for Barack Obama based on his skin color but rather that he chose to be so disrespectful and chose to insult the nation in the way he did because of the exact principals that Carter touched on in the above quote.


The notion that Obama is not qualified to state facts as a President addressing the Congress and that one must not even hear out his entire address before rebuking him, is so outrageous and unheard of up until this point, that few other explanations remain. Joe Wilson continues to defend his un-American slander and claim that he was truthful in his statements when in fact he was, and is, completely misguided.


The notion that all strong resistance to Obama coming from the middle and the right is pure racism is also inaccurate, in my view.


However, the people who constantly use the argument that not everyone opposed to Obama is a racist are very often the same people who fail to point out the racists on the right and fail to be honest about the reasons for their outrage. Or they fail to give any rational explanation that makes any kind of sense for their intense fear and willingness to believe wild claims about Barack Obama.

Obama Health Care Speech

Rep. Wilson calls The President of The United States a "liar" at this point in regards to the legislation effecting illegal immigrants; if you failed to hear the audio that caused the interruption.







This was an excellent Address on Health Care by President Obama. All significant issues were cogently addressed, but I found the president should have expounded further upon the specifics of the budget and the concept of "deficit neutrality." Perhaps it is my own failure in understanding but I do not fully understand this notion as it pertains to health care.

I also think this clear explanation was needed much closer to the onset of the national debate instead of at this point in time and also hopefully prior to the town hall debate setting, but I see the issue of Health Care Reform as being underlined and placed in the foreground.

Those who chose not to listen and refute every word Obama speaks will most likely continue to do so.

The issue of a 'failure to sell' Health Care Reform and explain the proposal is put to rest, in my view.
