Scotts 2 Cents

A technicality on a complicated bill vote is one thing and nearly every politician has voted on a bill with something in it that will come back to haunt them and sound bad when taken out of context.  But some of the lies and mis-information being put forth by the Barack Obama campaign and scary.  Not only are they signficant lies they have some significantly fundamental problems as well.  Can you really vote for this guy?

 

TERRY ANDERSON, A  BLACK LOS ANGELES TALK RADIO HOST,   WENT DOWN A LIST OF THINGS SENATOR OBAMA HAS SAID THAT  AREN’T   EXACTLY CORRECT.   

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 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 5am 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). 

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.

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.’

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.
