I thought you all would be interested in this. Really, no one knows Barack Obama, yet they are going to vote for him without knowing all the details.



You Don’t Know Barack Obama Until You Read This Book.

This new book — "The Case Against Barack Obama" is published by the same group that brought you "Unfit for Command: Swift Boat Veterans Speak Out Against John Kerry" — the book that defeated John Kerry in 2004.

Already the liberal media has condemned "The Case Against Barack Obama" because it could change the outcome of the election.

Make no doubt about it, Barack Obama is the media's darling, the fresh face of the Democratic ticket. But what does Barack Obama really stand for — and will his extreme liberal agenda and complete inexperience in global affairs endanger the country?

That's what David Freddoso, investigative reporter and National Review Online columnist, examines in "The Case Against Barack Obama."

Has any major candidate for president of the United States ever received less critical examination than Barack Obama? Who is this man, who was only elected to the U.S. Senate in 2004?

How did someone with his meager record of accomplishment become the Democratic nominee for president? How did someone with the most liberal voting record in the U.S. Senate and long-standing relationships with a former terrorist, a racist minister, and the corrupt operators of Chicago Machine politics end up as a supposed beacon of a newer, cleaner, bipartisan politics?

Investigative reporter David Freddoso has the answers. Doing the legwork that the mainstream media has neglected, applying a critical eye while the media swoons before the Obama-messiah, and posing the hard questions that Obama needs to answer, Freddoso reveals a politician as calculating as any other, a far-left Democrat who goes beyond "abortion rights" to supporting de facto infanticide, whose "new politics" amount to Chicago-style hardball overlain with lofty rhetoric, and who, from his positions of power, has helped his patrons.

In "The Case Against Barack Obama", you’ll learn:

* How Obama’s friendship with the Reverend Jeremiah Wright was no accident, but a carefully thought-out personal and political decision
* The inside story of Obama's association with terrorist Bill Ayers wouldn’t matter — an exposé of the insular radical chic of Chicago's Hyde Park politics
* The real story of Obama as a puppet of Mayor Daley's corrupt Chicago political machine
* What Obama really did for convicted developer Tony Rezko
* Debunking the myth of Obama’s "new" politics: how Obama won his first election by throwing all of his competitors off the ballot
* The new 'Dirty Politics': how underhanded politics sabotaged Obama's opponents in his 2004 Senate race
* A story Obama would like to stay buried in Chicago: how he used his clout as a U.S. senator to save the corrupt Cook County Political Machine when reformers of both parties tried to challenge the entrenched political bosses
* How Barack Obama opposed a bill banning infanticide-by-neglect — a stance too extreme even for Nancy Pelosi. (Freddoso has an exclusive interview with the nurse central to the case.)
* Why the National Abortion Rights Action League says Obama is the most pro-abortion candidate they have ever backed
* How Obama has repeatedly steered taxpayer money to campaign donors
* And much, much more.

Sober, fair, and thoroughly researched — and all the more powerful and provocative because of it — "The Case Against Barack Obama" removes the halo from a man less qualified, and more radical, than the mainstream media has let you know.

Find out why electing this man as our Commander-in-Chief could be the most dangerous decision in American history.

David Freddoso covers Capitol Hill for National Review Online, and was previously a political reporter for the Evans-Novak Political Report and Human Events. A graduate of Notre Dame and the Columbia School of Journalism, he lives in Washington, D.C.

Okay, so what are your thoughts on Obama?

Empathy, what you have posted is not relevant to the health and prosperity of our country. There are more important things happening within our country right now which take priority before someone's belief on abortion. Abortion does not have anything to do with job creation, a healthy economy, fighting terrorism, keeping our soil safe from attack, education, health insurance, crime, etc....

Concluding from this, your post on abortion is at the bottom of the totem pole. Think about the important issues Empathy. Let me guess, you won't vote for McCain/Palin because they don't agree with your view of the allowance of prohibiting life from being born and living? Grow up.


I'm a small business owner so I care about the candidate that will do most for people in the position of owning a business as I am. I care most about the economic prosperity of our country as well as the safety here on our homeland soil. These issues take priority in my life, therefore I am voting for the McCain/Palin ticket because I have reviewed all the facts and histories of both McCain and Obama, and I can attest that McCain will be better for American!

McCain: I've turned to Palin for foreign policy advice many times in the past

On NPR this morning:
NPR: Given what you've said Senator, is there an occasion where you could imagine turning to Governor Palin for advice in a foreign policy crisis.

MCCAIN: I've turned to her advice many times in the past, I can't imagine turning to Senator Obama or Senator Biden cuz they've been wrong, they were wrong about Iraq, wrong about Russia...

Nowhere did she say anyone should be forced to do anything. When she was ask if anyone should go to jail if they had an abortion she said absolutly not. All she said is there should be more support for women to have childred.

McCain is basing his entire presidency on personal character attacks on Barack Obama. I mean, instead of running on a platform of his own, it seems like the entire McCain campaign is just running on an ANTI-OBAMA platform. That is no way to lead the country.

Barack Obama is a strong leader. John McCain is a wimp. Why are most of John McCain's senior campaign staff former lobbyists? This is a serious question that we must ask.

Barack will bring the country together. Whereas, a McCain / Palin ticket will just continue to tear us down.

Actually, this is Obama's strategy. You seem to be confused.

Barack Obama is a strong leader. John McCain is a wimp. Why are most of John McCain's senior campaign staff former lobbyists? This is a serious question that we must ask.


Obama is only a "JUNIOR MEMBER" of the U.S. Senate right now! He has never had the opportunity to be a leader in his life! He hasn't even been a Senator for 4 full years yet! Why does he think he can be President? It is ludicrous. How can you conclude that he is something which he has never had the opportunity to achieve yet?????


Barack will bring the country together. Whereas, a McCain / Palin ticket will just continue to tear us down.


How? Be specific. Explain how Obama will bring our country together, and how McCain will bring us down... You said it so back it up. I'm waiting...

Every state has two senate seats, one is senior, the other junior. Senate terms run six years and are staggered. The senior seat is the one held for a full six years on a state's admission to the union. The junior senator who holds the junior seat may be much older than, and have served longer than, any holder of a senior seat.

If you mean something other than this by "junior member", I am not sure what it could be. Obama has served four years in the senate, and is in that sense senior to all first term senators elected in 2006.

On reading Obama's books, I learned a good bit about him. He's laid out his philosophy and what he wants and how he'll achieve it. I think many on the left will be surprised at the centrist positions he is likely to take in order to govern.

That doesn't make the slightest of sense. Can you elaborate?
