I have no love for John McCain, no wish to sing his praises. But I can’t deny that Barack Obama seems an insignificant clown next to him. A dangerous, mad clown. Barack Obama may have finally mustered up the interest and guts to face American troops in Iraq, but he has not yet faced John McCain in debate, nor has he had the wherewithal to stand true to any of his positions, as reprehensible as most of those are.
Obama’ story reads like an Oprah book of the month. Had he not been propped up as a politician, he , like his books, would be fodder for the discount bins. How many conflicted young men on a tortured journey in search for their identity can anyone stomach anymore anyway. And who the hell elects one into the highest office in the land?

Discover The Networks offers the story on Obama.

DiscoverTheNetworks examines Barack Hussein Obama’s connections to a number of key individuals and organizations. In some cases, these affiliates are notable for the leftist views and objectives they share with Obama. In other cases, they are notable for their collaboration with Obama in controversial or unethical activities. In all cases, they offer a window into Barack Obama’s values and priorities. Taken as a whole, they verify Thomas Sowell’s observation that Obama has “spent decades aiding and abetting people who hate America.”

McCain’s story reads far differently and you can read a portion of it here.

Thomas Sowell has sobering and wise advice regarding the choices that face America in this election. We’d do well to heed his words.

Not since 1972 have we been presented with two such painfully inadequate candidates. When election day came that year, I could not bring myself to vote for either George McGovern or Richard Nixon. I stayed home.

This year, none of us has that luxury. While all sorts of gushing is going on in the media, and posturing is going on in politics, the biggest national sponsor of terrorism in the world— Iran— is moving step by step toward building a nuclear bomb.

The point when they get that bomb will be the point of no return. Iran’s nuclear bomb will be the terrorists’ nuclear bomb— and they can make 9/11 look like child’s play.

All the options that are on the table right now will be swept off the table forever. Our choices will be to give in to whatever the terrorists demand— however outrageous those demands might be— or to risk seeing American cities start disappearing in radioactive mushroom clouds.

All the things we are preoccupied with today, from the price of gasoline to health care to global warming, will suddenly no longer matter.
