The Obama Whoops List

TERRY ANDERSON, A BLACK LOS ANGELES TALK RADIO HOST, WENT DOWN A LIST OF THINGS SENATOR OBAMA HAS SAID THAT AREN'T EXACTLY CORRECT. It's a long list.

Obama's Not Exactlys:

1.) Selma March Got Me Born - NOT EXACTLY, your parents felt safe enough to have you in 1961 - Selma had no effect on your birth, as Selma was in 1965. (Google 'Obama Selma ' for his full March 4, 2007 speech and articles about its various untruths.)

2.) Father Was A Goat Herder - NOT EXACTLY, he was a privileged, well educated youth, who went on to work with the Kenyan Government.

3.) Father Was A Proud Freedom Fighter - NOT EXACTLY, he was part of one of the most corrupt and violent governments Kenya has ever had.

4.) My Family Has Strong Ties To African Freedom - NOT EXACTLY, your cousin Raila Odinga has created mass violence in attempting to overturn a legitimate election in 2007, in Kenya . It is the first widespread violence in decades. The current government is pro-American but Odinga wants to overthrow it and establish Muslim Sharia law. Your half-brother, Abongo Obama, is Odinga's follower. You interrupted your New Hampshire campaigning to speak to Odinga on the phone. Check out the following link for v verification of that....and for more.
Obama's cousin Odinga in Kenya ran for president and tried to get Sharia Muslim law in place there. When Odinga lost the elections, his followers have burned Christians' homes and then burned men, women and children alive in a Christian church where they took shelter.. Obama SUPPORTED his cousin before the election process here started. Google Obama and Odinga and see what you get. No one wants to know the truth.

5.) My Grandmother Has Always Been A Christian - NOT EXACTLY, she does her daily Salat prayers at 5 am according to her own interviews. Not to mention, Christianity wouldn't allow her to have been one of 14 wives to 1 man.

6.) My Name is African Swahili - NOT EXACTLY, your name is Arabic and 'Baraka' (from which Barack came) means 'blessed' in that language. Hussein is also Arabic and so is Obama. Barack Hussein Obama is not half black. If elected, he would be the first Arab-American President, not the first black President. Barack Hussein Obama is 50% Caucasian from his mother's side and 43.75% Arabic and 6.25% African Negro from his father's side. While Barack Hussein Obama's father was from Kenya , his father's family was mainly Arabs.. Barack Hussein Obama's father was only 12.5% African Negro and 87.5% Arab (his father's birth certificate even states he's Arab, not African Negro). From....and for more....go to.....

7.) I Never Practiced Islam - NOT EXACTLY, you practiced it daily at school, where you were registered as a Muslim and kept that faith for 31 years, until your wife made you change, so you could run for office. 4-3-08 Article 'Obama was 'quite religious in Islam'' http://www.wnd. com/index. php?fa=PAGE. view&pageId=60559

8.) My School In Indonesia Was Christian - NOT EXACTLY, you were registered as Muslim there and got in trouble in Koranic Studies for making faces (check your own book). February 28, 2008. Kristoff from the New York Times a year ago: Mr. Obama recalled the opening lines of the Arabic call to prayer, reciting them with a first-rate accent. In a remark that seemed delightfully uncalculated (it'll give Alabama voters heart attacks), Mr. Obama described the call to prayer as 'one of the prettiest sounds on Earth at sunset.' This is just one example of what Pamela is talking about when she says 'Obama's narrative is being altered, enhanced and manipulated to whitewash troubling facts.'

9.) I Was Fluent In Indonesian - NOT EXACTLY, not one teacher says you could speak the language.

10.) Because I Lived In Indonesia , I Have More Foreign Experience - NOT EXACTLY, you were there from the ages of 6 to 10, and couldn't even speak the language. What did you learn except how to study the Koran and watch cartoons.

11.) I Am Stronger On Foreign Affairs - NOT EXACTLY, except for Africa (surprise) and the Middle East (bigger surprise), you have never been anywhere else on the planet and thus have NO experience with our closest allies.

12.) I Blame My Early Drug Use On Ethnic Confusion - NOT EXACTLY, you were quite content in high school to be Barry Obama, no mention of Kenya and no mention of struggle to identify - your classmates said you were just fine

13.)An Ebony Article Moved Me To Run For Office - NOT EXACTLY, Ebony has yet to find the article you mention in your book. It doesn't, and never did, exist.

14.) A Life Magazine Article Changed My Outlook On Life - NOT EXACTLY, Life has yet to find the article you mention in your book. It doesn't, and never did, exist.

15.) I Won't Run On A National Ticket In '08 - NOT EXACTLY, here you are, despite saying, live on TV, that you would not have enough experience by then, and you are all about having experience first.

16.) Voting 'Present' is Common In Illinois Senate - NOT EXACTLY, they are common for YOU, but not many others have 130 NO VOTES.

17.) Oops, I Misvoted - NOT EXACTLY, only when caught by church groups and Democrats, did you beg to change your misvote.

18.) I Was A Professor Of Law - NOT EXACTLY, you were a senior lecturer ON LEAVE.

19.) I Was A Constitutional Lawyer - NOT EXACTLY, you were a senior lecturer ON LEAVE.

20.) Without Me, There Would Be No Ethics Bill - NOT EXACTLY, you didn't write it, introduce it, change it or create it.

21.) The Ethics Bill Was Hard To Pass - NOT EXACTLY, it took just 14 days from start to finish.

22.) I Wrote A Tough Nuclear Bill - NOT EXACTLY, your bill was rejected by your own party for its pandering and lack of all regulation - mainly because of your Nuclear donor, Exelon, from which David Axelrod came.

23.) I Have Released My State Records - NOT EXACTLY, as of March, 2008, state bills you sponsored or voted for have yet to be released, exposing all the special interests pork hidden within.

24.) I Took On The Asbestos Altgeld Gardens Mess - NOT EXACTLY, you were part of a large group of people who remedied Altgeld Gardens . You failed to mention anyone else but yourself, in your books.

25.) My Economics Bill Will Help America - NOT EXACTLY, your 111 economic policies were just combined into a proposal which lost 99-0, and even YOU voted against your own bill.

26.) I Have Been A Bold Leader In Illinois - NOT EXACTLY, even your own supporters claim to have not seen BOLD action on your part.

27.) I Passed 26 Of My Own Bills In One Year - NOT EXACTLY, they were not YOUR bills, but rather handed to you, after their creation by a fellow Senator, to assist you in a future bid for higher office.

28.) No One on my campaign contacted Canada about NAFTA - NOT EXACTLY, the Canadian Government issued the names and a memo of the conversation your campaign had with them.

29.) I Am Tough On Terrorism - NOT EXACTLY, you missed the Iran Resolution vote on terrorism and your good friend Ali Abunimah supports the destruction of Israel .

30.) I Want All Votes To Count - NOT EXACTLY, you said let the delegates decide.

31.) I Want Americans To Decide - NOT EXACTLY, you prefer caucuses that limit the vote, confuse the voters, force a public vote, and only operate during small windows of time.

32.) I passed 900 Bills in the State Senate - NOT EXACTLY, you passed 26, most of which you didn't write yourself.

33.) I Believe In Fairness, Not Tactics - NOT EXACTLY, you used tactics to eliminate Alice Palmer from running against you.

The End - - - or is it?

In my own personal opinion and I am not a scholar, but I really do feel we are really in big trouble if this man gets in, if you know what I mean. If you think we have troubles now, just wait and see what we are in for later once he is "in charge".

I have been "undecided" this entire General Election season. The negativity that people bring out in Poli-tricks really pisses me off. The water cooler talks, the blogs, the special interest groups ads, etc. etc.... same old, same old through any election... local or national.

I wish one election could be run on the positives in life. Each candidate has strengths and weaknesses. Why do we insist on looking at our leaders with the worst they have done?

Whomever is elected and whomever I decide to vote for will not be based on what I read with unsubstantiated hearsay. I am going to listen to the character of their content, do my own homework and make an educated decision on who I believe can lead us in this "new world"... wait I just described Democracy.

I urge everyone to remember that.

This info was b.s the first time it was posted, and is still b.s today.

80% of these things he never even said. Where do you get this crap, and why do you continue to push it?

If Barack Hussein Obama does become President of our country it will bring shame like we've never known before and you better be ready for the reparations to begin.

Why would any American with a brain be willing to vote for the same person the terrorists would vote for?

By the way, when you look at him doesn't he remind you of the little whiny sissy in school who was the teacher's pet? Thought I'd never say this but he even makes George Bush look good!!

Oh I get it. Because this guy is "black" we should believe him....but because Obama is "balck" we shouldn't. Geez i need to get my "blacks" straight

And if you don't support Obama despite all of the whopper lies he has told and the endorsement of sworn enemies of the United States you are a racist.

Anonymous said...

Bet something like this could be done on John McCain and others who were in the primary race too.
Doesn't mean anything really.
We are all human. We ALL make mistakes, we ALL say things we shouldn't sometimes, and we ALL change our mind on things as time goes by.

These things will not help me decide who to vote for because they are petty and usually unreliable.

Facts about Obama (!)He used Cocaine (2) He attended a church run by anti-American racist for 20 years (3) He is friends with an admitted terrorist who bombed U.S. Govt and State buildings (4) He was a leader for the convicted group ACORN which was responsible for much of our economic troubles we face today because of loans made to people who could not afford them (5) Two of his main advisers were up to their eyeballs and took millions of dollars from Fannie Mae/Freddie Mac (6) He stated in his book that if things went bad he would side with the muslims. I could go on but you get the point

Yo Anon 11:54, are you Sean Hannity? You must be, those are the same talking points rubbish he's been spewing every 30 seconds for the last year. Get a grip (and an informed opinion of your own).

Anonymous said...

anon 1222 Say what you want but they are facts no matter who said them or how many times they have been said. You folks that like Obama simply dont care, however that doesnt make them untrue or any less offensive to a great many Americans.

Anonymous said...

And if Sean Hannity was a Democrat instead of a Republican, he would be doing the same thing to McCain.
It's Hannity's job.

I turn him on every now and then on the way home from work, he cracks me up actually. I can feel the brainwashing going on with his show.

He calls people "Great Americans" because they call in to his show? Give me a break!
He doesn't even know these people, but as you can see, he forms his own opinions about people he has never met......like he has done with Obama...and Hillary...and Biden...and Gore...and Bill Clinton and any other Democrat who tries to run for office.

He does a good job at the brainwashing...that's for sure.

I am not a Democrat, nor a Republican. I am an Independentso I listen to both sides when I can to see what each side is saying which I would encourage all people to do but take each with a grain of salt until you can sort out the facts on your own if possible.

Joe, Do you have a email or website for John McCain?? This is something that should be nationally published, and let the public know what he is up to. His background certainly does not impress me, but if we can get his information out on a national level, he will never stand a chance of getting elected. Terrorim and violence will not set well with the Amerian public after what we went through and how we suffered after 9/11. He does not salute the flag, place his hand across his heart, nothing. If you don't want to pay respect to OUR country, go back to Kenya, where you are telling us your background is. Go corrupt their government.

To anon 11:16 yes we all make mistakes but these are not mistakes they are out and out lies.
And if you believe everything this man says you are the most stupid person in the world. If Obama is elected president there will be change alright but not for the better for the worse. It will be the end of our free country as we know it. Can't you see he is a muslim he is not a black man. He is only 6% black. He is in bed with the terrorist. Also he will ruin our country financially because you will be taking home less than half of what you earn the rest will go for Obamas new taxes. And our military will be non-existant. After he cuts our military to nothing we will not even be able to defend ourselves
thus letting the terrorist or any other strong military country take over the United States without even firing a shot. Then Obama with a great speech will have you believe it is in your best interest to let them take us over.
