A "deadly" article regarding Obama, at the Wall Street Journal, which today is the most widely circulated newspaper in America.
Article from the Wall Street Journal - by Eddie Sessions:
"I have this theory about Barack Obama. I think he's led a kind of make-believe life in which money was provided and doors were opened because at some point early on somebody or some group (George Soros anybody?) took a look at this tall, good looking, half-white, half-black, young man with an exotic African/Muslim name and concluded he could be guided toward a life in politics where his facile speaking skills could even put him in the White House.
In a very real way, he has been a young man in a very big hurry. Who else do you know has written two memoirs before the age of 45? "Dreams of My Father" was published in 1995 when he was only 34 years old. The "Audacity of Hope" followed in 2006. If, indeed, he did write them himself. There are some who think that his mentor and friend, Bill Ayers, a man who calls himself a "communist with a small c" was the real author.
His political skills consisted of rarely voting on anything that might be deemed controversial... He went from a legislator in the Illinois legislature to the Senator from that state because he had the good fortune of having Mayor Daley's formidable political machine at his disposal.
He was in the U.S. Senate so briefly that his bid for the presidency was either an act of astonishing self-confidence or part of some greater game plan that had been determined before he first stepped foot in the Capital... How, many must wonder, was he selected to be a 2004 keynote speaker at the Democrat convention that nominated John Kerry when virtually no one had ever even heard of him before?
He outmaneuvered Hillary Clinton in primaries. He took Iowa by storm. A charming young man, an anomaly in the state with a very small black population, he oozed "cool" in a place where agriculture was the antithesis of cool. He dazzled the locals. In addition, he had an army of volunteers drawn to a charisma that hid any real substance.
Then he had the great good fortune of having the Republicans select one of the most inept candidates for the presidency since Bob Dole. Then John McCain did something crazy. He picked Sarah Palin, an unknown female governor from the very distant state of Alaska. It was a ticket that was reminiscent of 1984's Walter Mondale and Geraldine Ferraro and they went down to defeat.
The mainstream political media fell in love with him. It was a schoolgirl crush with febrile commentators like Chris Mathews swooning then and now over the man. The venom directed against McCain and, in particular, Palin, was extraordinary.
Now, three full years into his presidency, all of those gilded years leading up to the White House have left him unprepared to be President. Left to his own instincts, he has a talent for saying the wrong thing at the wrong time. It swiftly became a joke that he could not deliver even the briefest of statements without the ever-present Tele-Prompters.
Far worse, however, is his capacity to want to "wish away" some terrible realities, not the least of which is the Islamist intention to destroy America and enslave the West. Any student of history
knows how swiftly Islam initially spread. It knocked on the doors of Europe, having gained a foothold in Spain ...
The great crowds that greeted him at home or on his campaign "world tour" were no substitute for having even the slightest grasp of history and the reality of a world filled with really bad people with really bad intentions.
Oddly and perhaps even inevitably, his political experience, a cakewalk, has positioned him to destroy the Democrat Party's hold on power in Congress because in the end it was never about the Party. It was always about his communist ideology, learned at an early age from family, mentors, college professors, and extreme leftist friends and colleagues.
Obama is a man who could deliver a snap judgment about a Boston police officer who arrested an "obstreperous" Harvard professor-friend, but would warn Americans against "jumping to
conclusions" about a mass murderer at Fort Hood who shouted "Allah Akbar. The absurdity of that was lost on no one. He has since compounded this by calling the Christmas bomber "an isolated extremist" only to have to admit a day or two later that he was part of an al
Qaeda plot.
He is a man who could strive to close down our detention facility at Guantanamo even though those released were known to have returned to the battlefield against America. He could even instruct his Attorney General to afford the perpetrator of 9/11 a civil trial when no one else would ever even consider such an obscenity. In addition, he is a man who could wait three days before having anything to say about the perpetrator of yet another terrorist attack on Americans and then have to elaborate on his remarks the following day because his first statement was so lame.
The pattern repeats itself. He either blames any problem on the Bush administration or he naively seeks to wish away the truth.
Knock, knock. Anyone home? Anyone there? Barack Obama exists only as the sock puppet of his handlers, of the people who have maneuvered and manufactured this pathetic individual's life.
When anyone else would quickly and easily produce a birth certificate, this man spent over a million dollars to deny access to his. Most other documents, the paper trail we all leave in our
wake, have been sequestered from review. He has lived a make-believe life whose true facts remain hidden.
We laugh at the ventriloquist's dummy, but what do you do when the dummy is President of the United States of America?

| Despite all of this, there are people that not only stand by their initial vote for this guy but, will vote for him again. I work with a guy like that. It takes every fiber of my being to not strangle the guy. You'd better get used to Obummer because right now, I don't see anyone unseating him. God help this country. |

I read the online edition of the WSJ every morning at 0545 and again after 0700 after the market futures are posted. As a paid subscriber i get complete access. Never have seen such article.
But, to foster your fantasy--look up Directorate S of the old KGB First Chief Directorate--which surreptitiously identifed, isolated, supported, and boosted the careers of Americans who were sympathetic to socialism and Marxism-Leninism and who would work diligenlty to undermine the US. |

That's because it was never published in the WSJ. http://www.snopes.com/politics/soapbox/makebelieve.asp |

| I just investigated a little more and this is what i found. The article came from Republic-Main Street so we can figure it is bull sh**. That being said, It's hard the fault what was printed! And we know that Snopes is the full truth and nothing but the truth, don't we? |

| Reelly Old, your exactly right! Everyone wants to get rid of Obama in the worst way! He is part of the problem but not all of it. The Demo Congress needs to go! Everyone is so fixated on Obama, that they either lose sight of or can't figure not how to make him a lame duck, if he wins reelection. I can live with him for another 4 years, if there is on Demo hold on either house. He can be castrated very nicely that way. All the effort needs to be directed at beating hell out of the nitwits that give him any power at all. |

I would say that you lost all credibility on this matter when you posted a complete bs article and tried to claim it as being from WSJ. Now who's the nitwit again??

Snopes may be right, but anytime I see anything associated with snopes as a claimer/disclaimer I immediately discard it.
I just want to know a little about our presidents youth, who was at the wedding, who went to school with him, what other family members are in our country with false S.S. #s, who were his friends and "running" buddies, why/when did he quit hating the white race(or did he?), who and how much have given to his campaign, why the name change, what was his college GPA, what was his association with weather underground, how deep was he in the black panther organization, what jobs did he hold to make his millions,? ? ? Anyone got some more?

| It is very important to capture both houses of Congress thus cutting off his money tree and appointments. Granted he would still be able to rule through his Cabinet but they have to have budgets approved. The Fed is a big problem as they could still print notes and play with interest rates. |

| Fishing mission! I did post something that was not correct! I researched it a little more and took credit for it. From what I've seen of your posts, that is a lot more than you would do! Now, why don't you go down the list and point out what you disagree with in the article! The nitwits are the people that support and defend a non-supportable position. We already know your position, so here you go!Rip into the article and defend who and what he is and where he came from and all the other points! I can hardly wait for your lame response to the questions raised by the article that was in fact posted in a Wall Street Journal Forum, 08-02-10 under the alias Eddie Sessions. Now, feel better? http://amoralcompass.blogspot.com/2010/02/article-form-wall-street-journal-form.html |

Who cares if it came from WSJ or MAD Magazine! If there's a nit-wit here, it's probably the guy who tries to destroy the source and not the content ...

Why would I question fiction, what's the point? This is a column written by a quack. A quack that so many people realize as being a quack that he didn't use his real name, Alan Caruba, in trying to gain credibility. This is the same guy that defended his position on global warnming as saying it is cold in Copenhagen?!?! Then when asked his opinion on the last 2 summers as being the hottest in recorded history he said it was a heat wave, but 2 months later wrote an article on the world entering a mini ice age?!? The guy is so dilusional that he can't keep his own dilusions straight and you chose to post his opinion from a forum as being the truth. The only truth here is that you believed a chain email that has been going around since feb. 2010, written under an alias, as being true.

I do care, and I found little wrong with the article regardless of who wrote it or who posted it or why you have your finger up his butt. But like the proverbial opinion, you're entitled to your own anus ...

The executive office DOES MATTER this election cycle because it is very likely that the next President will nominate 2 supreme court justices. There are 1 conservative and 1 liberal justice that should retire within the next 4 years.
Don't let the liberals convince you to stay home in November because another 4 years of Obama as CEO doesn't matter as long as republicans retain the HOR. That is BOGUS.
It matters. Vote for either of the 4 clowns trying to win the republican nomination. I'll probably be holding my nose again, but will be voting for either Romney, Santorum, Paul, or Newt this November.

| Well said Shane. None of the current Repub. candidates really excites me but, to a man, any one of them has to better than what we have now. I will vote for whoever the Repub. candidate happens to be. |

Yeah, that would be bogus, the result of which is ever-present last year and so far in 2012. What I've said numerous times is Congress (House and Senate) is what really matters when push comes to shove, witness the debacle confronting George Bush '07 and '08. Sure, win it all if you can, but the Presidency is just gravy. Lose Congress and you get Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid, and a neutered Republican President. The RNC bought into this circus of debates, primaries, and delegate selection while Obama goes about fund raising and politicking from the bully pulpit. Republican candidates are not only hell-bent on gutting each other while Obama rolls along, it could go on until August! Hopefully the RNC will figure it out before it's too late, if it isn't already ...
Oh, and it's the Senate that confirms Supreme Court nominees, it's a Constitutional thing. Firmly control the Senate and any nominee can be sent packing if there's enough resolve. Control both bodies and a President can be made a irrelevant (even from the same party). And I don't think even this President has the ballz for a recess appointment to the USSC ... 
If You Don't Vote, You Forfeit The Right To Complain.
If You Vote Third Party, You Did It To Yourself And Shouldn't Complain.

Do you really trust our spineless republican senators to prevent an Obama appointed supreme court justice? If so, I got some ocean front property that can be yours for the askin....

Stranger things have happened. With a solid Republican Senate, I think there would be one heck of a biitch fight if Obama nominated another Kagen or Sotomayor. Obama could essentially be a lame duck on Nov 7th if there's enough resolve. If your ocean property is anywhere near Charleston, donate it to Goodwill. I can't afford to live there ...
Republicans Keep On Swinging, Obama Keeps On Raising Campaign Money.
