A Historic Candidacy Based on a Lie

Pardon me, readers, if it seems I am fixated on helping stop Obama from becoming POTUS. I am. I guess its the years of being used & abused by pathological people, men & women -- and spending time with Trauma Counselors 4 years ago and now counseling other abused women and seeing the patterns, the dysfunction and the devastation these kinds of people leave in their wake. Even those "a little" pathological are enough to destroy lives. One of those people, I believe, is Barack Obama. I am dead certain of it. Barack makes the hair stand up on my neck. And before you call me a racist, my first roommate in New York when I moved here in 1979 was an African American male. I had no problems with him or he with me. So, no, it's not because Barack isn't as lily-white as me. It's because he's a con man and his entire life story and campaign is a carefully concocted lie being spoon fed with a lot of the usual mind-numbing rhetoric those of us who grew up in ...

Who'd a thunk it? Rev. Al getting mad at Obama for "grandstanding in front of white people." Guess this is a case of 'it takes one to know one.' SHARPTON RAPS OBAMA By CHUCK BENNETT and KAVITA MOKHA Barack Obama made a call for nonviolence in the aftermath of the Sean Bell verdict - infuriating the Rev. Al Sharpton, who accused the presidential candidate of trying to "grandstand in front of white people," sources told The Post. During what a source described as a "heated" phone call yesterday, Sharpton told Obama he was disappointed with the Illinois senator's words on Friday, when Obama said "resorting to violence to express displeasure" was "completely unacceptable and counterproductive." "[Obama] issues this statement and not a single rock had been thrown," said a source. "How does the candidate of change ask people to accept a verdict that is unjust?" The source said Sharpton had hoped Obama would...

LOOK OUT, REV! Sharpton's aides are in the hot seat. Seems the Feds are probing the Rev's finances. Of course, Al... never one to miss an opportunity to mouth-off or play victim, now paints himself with the same brush as Martin Luther King, Jr. by proclaiming that all civil rights leaders are hassled this way. And, like all good narcissistic types - he denies denies denies any wrongdoing. Rev, you gonna get Twana Brawley or maybe Steven Pagonis to come to court as a character witness if you get subpoenaed? Sharpton blasts feds over finance probe, says it's retaliatory Less than a month after the Rev. Al Sharpton led a Washington march to demand federal action in the Jena Six case, several of his associates and employees found federal agents at their doors with subpoenas for records related to his finances, he said. To him, the timing was no coincidence. With a grand jury gearing up to consider possible tax fraud charges against him, Sharpton is accusing federal authoritie...

PATHOLOGICAL LYING DOMINATES THE NEWS This past few weeks its been "pants on fire " headlines. Gonzales has " nothing to hide ." Imus is " sorry ," (kind of like 'the checks in the mail' and 'I swear I won't fill in blank') but Al " pin back your yarmaluke " Sharpton "isn't buying Imus' apology and neither is Jesse " hymietown " Jackson. Rush Limbaugh, that bastian of truth who's 'kicked' his oxycotin addiction thinks Obama is a " HALF-rican ." Bush is getting ready to veto stem-cell research again because he's the "decider" and on this past Friday night's usual news-dump the White House FINALLY admits " abstinence only programs don't work " DUH!! The Governor of New Jersey refuses to use a dang seat belt and ends up nearly getting himself killed. (let's nominate him for a Darwin Award!) And my Winner for Understatement of the Month : Dick Che...

DON IMUS - A DISASTER BOUND TO HAPPEN I admit it, I have NEVER liked Don Imus. My friend from college Joe, used to swear up and down to me how great he was. I gave him a few chances on Joe's recommendation and I got such bad vibes from this guy. He just oozed misogyny and racism to me. I am pretty liberal about everything but this guy? No class - and I can't deal with crude people. Sorry. Yeah I know - I am a huge Howard Stern fan. But Howard for some reason, comes off to me as a guy who's just being honest about how a lot of men think of women. He's funny and he actually respects women - a bit too much LOL - in my opinion. (And no, I have no intention of going to Sirius and riding the sybian.) I could listen to Howard riff on the news all day. Even when I don't agree with him - he makes me laugh. A lot. Howard is no Imus. Baruch Hashem. Now Al Sharpton... well, calling for Imus' outster - o.k. I can see that. But Sharpton is so full of himself it ...
