Dear Mr. Obama YouTube Video (1m55s)- by Iraqi war veteran.

Iran Launches New Round of War Games Iran’s military and its Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC), which trains terrorists to carry out attacks across the globe, today (Sept. 8) began three days of “air war games” to test the country’s new weapons systems.[1] As part of the exercises, Iran will test its anti-aircraft systems and new weapons. The maneuvers are intended to maintain and upgrade the readiness of Iran’s military units as well as to thwart the possibility of a U.S. or Israeli attack, according to a government-controlled news agency.[2]

Arctic Sees Massive Gain in Ice Coverage - Increase twice the size of Germany: "colder weather" to blame. ...William Chapman, a researcher with the Arctic Climate Research Center at the University of Illinois, tells DailyTech that this year the Arctic was "definitely colder" than 2007. Chapman also says part of the reason for the large ice loss in 2007 was strong winds from Siberia, which affect both ice formation and drift, forcing ice into warmer waters where it melts. Earlier predictions were also wrong because researchers thought thinner ice would melt faster in subsequent years. Instead, according to the NSIDC, the new ice had less snow coverage to insulate it from the bitterly cold air, resulting in a faster rate of ice growth.

Hypocrisies of the Left by Craig Chamberlain - Ever since Roe V. Wade made abortion legal in all 50 states the left has been bleating about the right to choose. Well, we have now seen what happens when a woman chooses against them and decides to have five children, one of which has Downs Syndrome. The anti human philosophy of the left really shows itself. Governor Palin is called a hypocrite for giving birth to a special needs child. So much for a womans right to choose.

SICKENING DEADLY LEGACY OF SANCTUARY CITIES -  By Frosty Wooldridge - NewsWithViews.com - In the “War on Terror”, four times more Americans died at the hands of illegal aliens within the United States than U.S. soldiers in Iraq and Afghanistan--for the past seven years. Illegal aliens continue their own ‘killing zone’ against Americans in every corner of American society.

Life Issues Electrify U.S. Elections -- Global Prayer and Fasting Coalition Gains Momentum The 16th International Week of Prayer and Fasting (October 5-13, 2008) featuring: Congressman Chris Smith, Sister Briege McKenna, Immaculee Ilibagiza - 'Rwandan Genocide Survivor,' Fr. Frank Pavone and Others. Coalition Chairperson Maureen Flynn believes the mission of organizing prayers for world peace, life issues, and the upcoming presidential election has never been more necessary. In fact, the focus of the group's mission- building a Culture of Life- has become even more relevant. Flynn states: "Our country and our world are at a crossroads. We must see the critical importance of this election and the need for prayer." The inclusion of a pro-life woman into this election has mobilized the base of both parties and brought all Culture of Life issues to the forefront.

How I know we will win Fred Hutchison - The ideology of the liberal democrats is to excuse the losers and blame the winners. The effect is to cripple the underclass because they have been given an excuse for losing. The class warfare politics of the Democrats makes the most productive people feel guilty for their success. But what if success is often the reward of character? What if failure is often the penalty of vice? If this be the case, the politics of class warfare is a war against character and virtue and a reinforcement of excuses for laziness, self-indulgence and vice. Why Obama will lose: Obama rose to power riding on the politics of class warfare. When one makes a career out of giving excuses to the losers, he eventually listens to himself and it undermines his character. Instead of learning from his mistakes and trying to understand why McCain is competetive, Obama is likely to blame "lies told by the GOP, "lies told by the extreme right," "bigots who will never vote for a black man," and "disaffected Hillary supporters." He has already dropped hints that this is what he is thinking. Obama will lose because he is already making excuses for losing.

Nation's largest police organization endorses McCain-Palin Jim Kouri - "The FOP carefully considered the records and the responses of both candidates and, in our evaluation, Senator McCain will provide greater leadership for our country and for our nation's law enforcement officers," Canterbury said. "We will be proud to stand behind him this November, and to stand with him for the next four years." For a candidate to receive the endorsement of the Fraternal Order of Police, he must receive a two-third majority of the National Board, which is made up of one Trustee from each of the organization's State Lodges. "Our National Board, and the more than 327,000 members of the FOP, acquainted themselves with Senator McCain's record, and, after meeting with him face to face in July, he made it very clear that he is with us on the issues most important to our members," Canterbury said.

Who says Palin has no foreign policy bona fides? The propaganda carpet-bombers keep telling us that Governor Sarah Palin's lack of foreign policy experience makes her unfit to be "one heartbeat away" from the presidency. By contrast — our betters instruct us, Joe Biden, as the chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, is all-wise and is prepared to help Obama (be his seeing eye dog?) to guide America through the waters of international danger and intrigue. Well, let's review that: ...

Palin Should Come Out Swinging in Debate Doug Patton  - “Unlike Barack Obama, who thought so highly of himself that he wrote two autobiographies before he accomplished anything, Mrs. Palin has raised a family, run a business, managed a city and governed a state. She took on corrupt members of her own party, toppled a sitting Republican governor and said ‘no’ to Alaska’s infamous ‘Bridge to Nowhere.’ She is pro-life, pro-family, pro-Second Amendment and pro-free enterprise. She is the governor of America’s most natural resource-rich state and is an advocate of oil drilling in ANWR. (Perhaps she can talk some sense into McCain on that issue.) Oh, and she has an 80 percent approval rating among Alaskans.”

Obama’s Secret Strategy By: Christopher Ruddy - McCain is still expected to win Texas this time. But Republican majorities in other states are fraying. Obama knows this. He has solid blue states New York and Massachusetts in his back pocket, along with most of the Northeast. Add to his base titanic California with 55 electoral voters and other left coast states like Oregon and Washington. There is no indication any of these states will move to the right. In fact, these blue states are moving further to the left. Ronald Reagan won New York in the 1980 and 1984 presidential elections. It is doubtful a conservative Republican will win the Empire State any time soon. This is why Obama and his campaign are so confident of victory. This is why he could pick Joe Biden as his vice presidential running mate, though Biden adds so little to his campaign. With such a solid base, Obama knows he needs to focus his campaign in just a handful of states, such as Ohio, Pennsylvania, Montana, Missouri, Colorado, Nevada, New Mexico, and North Carolina. If he picks off a few of these states that have traditionally voted Republican in national elections — Colorado and New Mexico, for example — he wins.

Socialist chief endorses Obama The head of France's opposition Socialist Party strongly endorsed U.S. Democratic presidential nominee Barack Obama and said Sunday that an Obama victory would be "good news" for the United States and the world. Francois Hollande said an Obama presidency would usher in a positive, new chapter in international relations. "We need an Obama victory next November," Hollande told supporters at an annual meeting in the Atlantic coastal city of La Rochelle. An Obama win "will be good news, not only for the American people, but for the whole world." Hollande promised to work for the senator's victory, but he acknowledged that the French Socialists' endorsement could end up tarnishing Obama's image in the eyes of the American electorate, given the way some voters regard socialism.

Chatting with Obama by Bill O'Reilly - As far as philosophy goes, Obama is convinced that the federal government should be in control of income distribution and, to some extent, should regulate the free marketplace. That is a classic liberal position and he promotes it well. ...So, if Obama does become president, there will definitely be change. His left-wing base will demand it, and he will come through. You can decide whether that's change we should believe in, but keep in mind that the unintended consequences of government interference in the marketplace are impossible to predict. Free markets have a way of chafing under government imposition.

Michelle's Boot Camps For Radicals By INVESTOR'S BUSINESS DAILY - Barack Obama was a founding member of the board of Public Allies in 1992, resigning before his wife became executive director of the Chicago chapter of Public Allies in 1993. Obama plans to use the nonprofit group, which he features on his campaign Web site, as the model for a national service corps. He calls his Orwellian program, "Universal Voluntary Public Service." Big Brother had nothing on the Obamas. They plan to herd American youth into government-funded reeducation camps where they'll be brainwashed into thinking America is a racist, oppressive place in need of "social change."

GunBaNObama.com - Barack Obama would be the most anti-gun president in American history. Senator Obama says “words matter.” But when it comes to your Second Amendment rights, he refuses to speak honestly about where he stands. In fact, Obama hides behind carefully chosen words and vague statements of support for sportsmen and gun rights to sidestep and camouflage the truth. But even he can’t hide from the truth forever … his voting record, political associations, and long standing positions make it clear that, if elected, Barack Obama would be the most anti-gun president in American history. GunBaNObama.com is designed to bring you the truth about Barack Obama’s words – words like these: “Do you support state legislation to … ban the manufacture, sale and possession of handguns? Yes.” (Independent Voters of Illinois/Independent Precinct Organization general candidate questionnaire, Sept. 9, 1996 “I’m consistently on record and will continue to be on record as opposing concealed carry.” (Chicago Tribune, April 27, 2004) “I believe in keeping guns out of our inner cities and that our leaders must say so in the face of the gun manufacturers lobby.” Barack Obama, The Audacity of Hope (2006).

Obama Unmasked (Book)- Is George Soros planning an "October Surprise" to make him a fortune and Obama President? Is Hollywood's David Geffen planning a "November Surprise" to trick millions into voting for Obama? What are the two secrets that will rip the mask from Obama's young face and reveal his charade for what it is—phantom liberalism? Floyd had no interest in attacking Obama with base accusations or wild smears. He aimed for the simple facts…Would the mad billionaire George Soros run wild in an Obama White House? But what he uncovered – especially two plots being hatched by George Soros and David Geffen to steal the White House for Obama – were the most damning things we've ever seen in politics. Why are so many Islamofascists who are sworn to the destruction of America also actively campaigning for Obama? What special rights would Muslims demand, and receive, from Obama? One Obama says he will force states to allow same-sex marriages. The other Obama says states can make their own decisions. Which of these two Obama's is lying? What did Obama promise union bosses to convince them to commit more than ONE BILLION DOLLARS to winning this election? He has been completely masked by his handlers in Hollywood, New York, and Washington. His very survival as a candidate now depends on his keeping that mask snugly fit.

B. Hussein: 'My Muslim faith' By Grant Swank - In an interview with ABC's George Stephanopoulos, B. Hussein referred to "my Muslim faith." Stephanopoulos tried to correct him immediately by stating "Christian faith" in place of "my Muslim faith." B. Hussein picked up on the correction and went on stating that he is a Christian, not Muslim. But the insertion of "my Muslim faith" by B. Hussein has caused scores to wonder once again as to whether or not B.  Hussein is in fact a mask Muslim. It would appear as if he is. He spent twenty years being tutored by pro-Islam Jeremiah Wright, B. Hussein not protesting once. He has had close friendship and associate ties with Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan and hires on his staff Muslims from his Illinois political district. B. Hussein went to a Muslim school, attended mosque, studied the Koran and praised its melodic cadence, even dressing in Islamic garb. B. Hussein is close to an Islamic Kenyan political leader cousin, even encouraging the relative in his attempt to become Kenya's president. B. Hussein says he's Christian — "a committed Christian." That is impossible for he cuts through Christ's New Testament ethics code by endorsing, for instance, sodomy and abortion.

ETH: Did the liberal pundits and mainstream media raise the following concerns for any Democrats such as Hillary, Nancy, or Geraldine?

Could Sarah Palin juggle family, vice presidency? Feminists for Life is taking issue with questions raised about Sarah Palin that were published in The New York Times. The article raised the question: "With five children, including an infant with Down syndrome and...a pregnant 17-year-old, Ms. Palin has set off a fierce argument among women about whether there are enough hours in the day for her to take on the vice presidency, and whether she is right to try." Serrin Foster heads Feminists for Life, of which Palin is a member.

If Bill Clinton Could Juggle Five Chicks, Sarah Palin Can Manage Five Kids by Doug Giles - Obama had better walk away from the experience digs on sweet Sarah because as a governor she trumps his Peter Pan record. Period. End of discussion. Biden, Dodd and Hillary agree with Palin when she said Obama ain’t got the moxie to be the Man. ...She’s a mama who can juggle work and family. Look, goofy libtard, if Bill Clinton could juggle five chicks and a mean wife, I believe Sarah Palin can manage five kids and a loving husband....No double speak Barack blather coming out of Palin’s mouth about the 2nd amendment and the great sport of hunting. She’s a lifetime member of the NRA, a Ted Nugent Kill and Grill it girl. ...She’s pro-drilling. The only thing the libs will drill is your wallet. ...She’s a true blue Washington outsider and not a polluted Chicago politician. ...Lastly, I thought you feminists dug accomplished women. Why the hatred, ladies? Do you like only the girls who are nasty, man hating, anti-American, pro-abortion lesbians who loathe this nation and that for which it stands? It sure seems that way.

"Knowledge unenlightened by the truth of God is dark knowledge. We may have a B.S., an M.S., and a Ph.D., but without the Lord all we have is dark information. It may help navigate us in the world of darkness, but by itself will never lead us to the truth. Apart from the revelation of the Spirit of God, none of us could ever find our way into the light. Darkly educated people are like those whom Paul described to his young protégé', Timothy, as 'always learning but never able to acknowledge the truth.'" (2 Timothy 3:7) Rediscovering the Kingdom by Myles Munroe

Small-town residents boo media with McCain - Hundreds of angry people in this small town outside Milwaukee taunted reporters and TV crews traveling with Sen. John McCain on Friday, chanting "Be fair!" and pointing fingers at a pack of journalists as they booed loudly. ..."Stop lying! You are all liars! Tell the truth!" one woman yelled from the front of the pack. The crowd was not menacing or threatening, but was clearly angry. "You're telling lies! Stop the lies!" one man yelled. Asked why the crowd was so angry, Linda J. Green of Mequon, Wisc., said: "I'm thinking the press is very biased." "I think the press is very liberal and very slanted against the McCain-Palin ticket. Would you ask a man if his kids were being taken care of while he's out campaigning?" ..."Why did the networks not carry the Republican convention, when they carried the Democratic convention?" she asked. "They do it because they're liberal," a man chimed in.

Media loves to hate Sarah Palin By Howie Carr - It’s become a regular “60 Minutes”/Texas Air National Guard feeding frenzy of bogus reporting out there. The whoppers about Palin are piled up so high in the moribund mainstream media that the wrinkly newsreaders have taken to blaming their most scurrilous, sexist screw-ups on those nefarious unnamed left-wing “bloggers” - you know, like Brian Williams....The pregnancy and impending shotgun marriage of her teen daughter, Bristol, sets a terrible example for the youth of America, unlike the pregnancy of the teen movie character “Juno,” who sets a wonderful example for the youth of America by refusing to marry. ...She’s a member of the Alaska Independence Party - correction, she isn’t, it was The New York Times [NYT] that printed the flat-out lie that she was, in a story that, so said the Times, “called into question how thoroughly Mr. McCain had examined her background.” You must understand printing lies about Republican candidates is OK. It’s called “vetting.” Printing the truth about liberals - that’s called “swift-boating.” From career MSNBC jock sniffer Keith Olbermann to Barney Frank’s favorite publisher Jann Wenner, the verdict on Palin is unanimous. ...And finally, we return to the real reason they hate her. She’s younger than they are, and better looking. Good looks is a deal breaker with this crowd, and if you don’t believe me, just ask Diane Feinstein, age 75, and Nancy Pelosi, age 68, and Hillary Clinton, age 61, and Barbara Boxer, age 67, and Barbara Mikulski, age 72.

Olbermann, Matthews Won't Anchor Political Events Concern from 'impartial newsgatherers at NBC News'

The swift-skirting of Sarah Palin Warner Todd Huston - Apparently the media wants to get even for the Swift-Boaters successful torpedoing of John Kerry in 2004 because they are by the dozens every day promulgating lies about the career and life of Governor Sarah Palin.

Media is anti-Christian, says Sky News reporter - Widespread anti-Christian bias in the media means that groups like The Christian Institute face an “uphill struggle” for fair coverage, says a Sky News journalist. Journalists select the information they wish to report based on a largely anti-Christian ideology, says David Blevins, a former Washington correspondent for Sky News.

Angry readers dump Us Magazine over Palin MSNBC — Three celebrity weeklies -- OK!, People, and Us Weekly -- featured Sarah Palin on their cover, but one of those magazines is reportedly losing subscribers because of it. Us Weekly, which unlike People and OK!, chose a rather caustic cover line ("Babies, Lies and Scandal") is said to have lost thousands of subscribers in just the first 24 hours following the printing of the issue...

More Good News From Iraq Not Worth Reporting - Radical Iraqi Shiite cleric and Iranian stooge Moqtada al-Sadr ordered a halt to armed operations by his 60,000-strong "Mahdi" thug army at the end of August. Agence France-Presse quotes Sadr as saying the militia will now focus more on "cultural programs." To borrow from chat speak: Lol. When things were going badly in Iraq, the Pentagon considered the Mahdi Army to be THE greatest threat to Iraq's future, even more so than Al-Qaeda. So you can see why the media wouldn't care about this.
