I'm reposting it in here because I want to make sure you all see it. Enjoy.
JH>The New York Times carried a story on Saturday, October 4, 2008 that
JH>proved you had a significantly closer relationship with Bill Ayers than
JH>what you previously admitted. While the issue of your relationship is of
JH>concern, the greater concern is that you lied to America about it.
JH>The Chicago Sun reported on May 8, 2008 that FBI records showed that you
JH>had a significantly closer relationship with Tony Rezko than what you
JH>previously admitted. In the interview, you said that you only saw Mr.
JH>Rezko a couple of times a year. The FBI files showed that you saw him
JH>weekly While the issue of your relationship is of concern, the greater
JH>concern is that you lied to America about it.
JH>Your speech in Philadelphia on March 18, 2008 about "race" contradicted
JH>your statement to Anderson Cooper on March 14 when you said that you never
JH>heard Reverend Wright make his negative statements about white America
JH>While your attendance at Trinity Church for 20 years is of concern, the
JH>greater concern is that you lied to America on March 14.
JH>In your 1st debate with Jo hn McCain, you said that you never said that
JH>you would meet with the leaders of Cuba , Venezuela , Iran , and North
JH>Korea without "preparations" at lower levels ... Jo e Biden repeated your
JH>words in his debate with Sarah Palin .. while the video tape from your
JH>debate last February clearly shows that you answered "I would" to the
JH>question of meeting with those leaders within 12 months without "any"
JH>preconditions. While your judgement about meeting with enemies of the USA
JH>without pre-conditions is of concern, the greater concern is that you lied
JH>to America in the debate with McCain.
JH>On July 14, 2008, you said that you always knew that the surge would work
JH>while the video tapes of you from more than a year ago show that you
JH>stated that the surge would not work. While your judgement about
JH>military strategy as a potential commander in chief is of concern, the
JH>greater concern is that you lied to America on July 14.
JH>You now claim that your reason for voting against funding for the troops
JH>was because the bill did not include a time line for withdrawal while the
JH>video tapes of you from more than a year ago show that you voted against
JH>additional funding because you wanted our troops to be removed immediately
JH>... not in 16 months after the 2008 election as you now claim. While your
JH>judgement about removing our troops unilaterally in 2007 is of concern,
JH>the greater concern is that you lied to America about your previous
JH>position.
JH>You claim to have a record of working with Republicans while the
JH>record shows that the only bill that you sponsored with a Republican was
JH>with Chuck Lugar ... and it failed. The record shows that you vote 97% in
JH>concert with the Democrat party and that you have the most liberal voting
JH>record in the Senate. You joined Republicans only 13% of the time in your
JH>votes and those 13% were only after agreement from the Democrat party.
JH>While it is of concern that you fail to include conservatives in your
JH>actions and that you are such a liberal, the greater concern is that you
JH>distorted the truth.
JH>In the primary debates of last February, 2008, you
JH>claimed to have talked with a "Captain" of a platoon in Afghanistan "the
JH>other day" when in fact you had a discussion in 2003 with a Lieutenant who
JH>had just been deployed to Afghanistan . You lied in that debate.
JH>In your debates last spring, you claimed to have been a "professor of
JH>Constitutional law" when in fact you have never been a professor of
JH>Constitutional law. In this last debate, you were careful to say that you
JH>"taught a law class" and never mentioned being a "professor of
JH>Constitutional law." You lied last spring.
JH>You and Jo e Biden both claimed that Jo hn McCain voted against additional
JH>funding for our troops when the actual records show the opposite. You
JH>distorted the truth. You and Joe Biden claim that John McCain voted
JH>against funding for alternate energy sources 20 times when the record
JH>shows that John McCain specifically voted against funding for bio fuels,
JH>especially corn ... and he was right .... corn is too expensive at
JH>producing ethanol, and using corn to make ethanol increased the price of
JH>corn from $2 a bushel to $6 a bushel for food. You distorted the truth.
JH>You and Joe Biden claim that Jo hn McCain voted like both of you for a
JH>tax increase on those making as little as $42,000 per year while the
JH>voting record clearly shows that John McCain did not vote as you and Joe
JH>Biden. You lied to America .
JH>You and Joe Biden claim that John McCain voted with George W. Bush 90% of
JH>the time when you know that Democrats also vote 90% of the time with the
JH>President (including Joe Biden) because the vast majority of the votes
JH>are procedural. You are one of the few who has not voted 90% of the time
JH>with the president because you have been missing from the Senate since the
JH>day you got elected. While your absence from your job in the Senate is of
JH>concern, the greater concern is that you spin the facts.
JH>You did not take an active roll in the rescue plan. You claimed that the
JH>Senate did not need you while the real reason that you abstained was
JH>because of your close relationships with the executives of Fannie Mae,
JH>Freddie Mac, Countrywide, and Acorn .. who all helped cause the financial
JH>problems of today ... and they all made major contributions to your
JH>campaign. While your relationship with these executives and your
JH>protection of them for your brief 3 years in the Senate (along with Barney
JH>Frank, Chuch Schumer, Maxine Waters, and Chris Dodd) is of concern, the
JH>greater concern is that you are being deceitful.
JH>You forgot to mention
JH>that you personally represented Tony Rezko and Acorn. Tony Rezko, an Arab
JH>and close friend to you, was convicted of fraud in Chicago real estate
JH>transactions that bilked millions of tax dollars from the Illinois
JH>government for renovation projects that you sponsored as a state senator
JH>... and Acorn has been convicted of voter fraud, real estate sub prime
JH>loan intimidation, and illegal campaign contributions. Tony Rezko has
JH>contributed hundreds of thousands of dollars to your political campaigns.
JH>You personally used your political positions to steer money to both Tony
JH>Rezko and Acorn and you used Acorn to register thousands of phony voters
JH>for Democrats and you. While your relationships with Rezko and Acorn are
JH>of concern, the greater concern is that you omitted important facts about
JH>your relationships with them to America .
JH>During your campaign, you said: "typical white person." "they cling to
JH>their guns and religion." "they will say that I am black." You played the
JH>race card. You tried to label any criticism about you as racist.
JH>You divide America . You claim that you
JH>will reduce taxes for 95% of America , but you forgot to tell America that
JH>those reductions are after you remove the Bush tax reductions. You have
JH>requested close to $1 Billion in earmarks and several million for Acorn.
JH>Your social programs will cost America $1 Trillion per year and you claim
JH>that a reduction in military spending ($100 billion for Iraq ) can pay for
JH>it. While your economic plan of adding 30% to the size of our federal
JH>government is of concern, the greater concern is that you are deceiving
JH>America .
JH>The drain to America 's economy by foreign supplied oil is
JH>$700 Billion per year (5% of GDP) while the war in Iraq is $100 Billion
JH>(less than 1% of GDP). You voted against any increases to oil exploration
JH>for the last 3 years and any expansion of nuclear facilities. Yet today,
JH>you say that you have always been for more oil and more nuclear. You are
JH>lying to America.
JH>Mr. Obama, you claimed that you "changed" your mind
JH>about public financing for your campaign because of the money spent by
JH>Republican PACs in 2004. The truth is that the Democrat PACs in 2004,
JH>2006, and 2008 spent twice as much as the Republican PACs (especially
JH>George Soros and MoveOn.org). You are lying to America .
JH>Mr. Obama, you have done nothing to stop the actions of the teachers union
JH>and college professors in the USA . They eliminated religion from our
JH>history. They teach pro gay agendas and discuss sex with students as young
JH>as first grade. They bring their personal politics into the classrooms.
JH>They disparage conservatives. They brainwash our children. They are in it
JH>for themselves ..... not America . Are you reluctant to condemn their
JH>actions because teachers/professors and the NEA contribute 25% of all
JH>money donated to Democrats and none to Republicans? You are deceiving
JH>America.
JH> Oh Mr. Obama, Teddy Roosevelt said about a hundred years ago
JH>that we Americans should first look at the character of our leaders before
JH>anything else. Your character looks horrible. While you make good
JH>speeches, motivating speeches, your character does not match your
JH>rhetoric. You talk the talk but do not walk the walk.
JH>1. You lied to America . You lied many times. You distorted facts. You
JH>parsed your answers like a lawyer.
JH>2. You distorted the record of John McCain in your words and in your
JH>advertisements.
JH>3. You had associations with some very bad people for your personal
JH>political gains and then lied about those associations.
JH>4. You divide America about race and about class.
JH>Now let me compare your record of lies, distortions, race bating, and
JH>associations to Jo hn McCain:
JH>War hero. Annapolis graduate with "Country first." Operational
JH>leadership experience like all 43 previously elected presidents of the USA
JH>as a Navy Officer for 22 years. 26 years in the Senate. Straight talk.
JH>Maverick. 54% of the time participated on bills with Democrats. Never
JH>asked for an earmark. The only blemish on his record is his part in the
JH>Keating 5 debacle about 25 years ago.
JH>Mr. Obama, at Harvard Law School, you learned that the end does not
JH>justify the means. You learned that perjury, false witness, dishonesty,
JH>distortion of truth are never tolerated. Yet, your dishonesty is
JH>overwhelming. Your dishonesty is tremendously greater than the dishonesty
JH>that caused the impeachment and disbarment of Bill Clinton. Your
JH>dishonesty is tremendously greater than the dishonesty of Scooter Libby.
JH>You should be ashamed. Mr. Obama, it is time for us Americans to put aside
JH>our differences on political issues and vote against you because of your
JH>dishonest character.
JH>It is time for all of us Americans to put aside our
JH>political issues and vote for America first. It is time for America to
JH>vote for honesty. Any people who vote for you after understanding that you
JH>are dishonest should be ashamed of themselves for making their personal
JH>political issues more important than character. Would these same people
JH>vote for the anti-Christ if the anti-Christ promised them riches? Would
JH>they make a golden calf while Moses was up the mountain? Would they hire
JH>someone for a job if that someone lied in an interview? .... of course
JH>not. So why do some of these people justify their votes for you even
JH>though they know you are dishonest? Why do they excuse your dishonesty?
JH>Because some of these people are frightened about the future, the economy,
JH>and their financial security .... and you are preying on their fears with
JH>empty promises ... and because some (especially our young people) are
JH>consumed by your wonderful style and promises for "change" like the
JH>Germans who voted for Adolf Hitler in 1932. The greed/envy by Germans in
JH>1932 kept them from recognizing Hitler for who he was. They loved his
JH>style. Greed and envy are keeping many Americans from recognizing you ...
JH>your style has camouflaged your dishonesty .... but many of us see you for
JH>who you really are .. and we will not stop exposing who you are every
JH>day, forever if it is necessary. Mr. Obama, you are dishonest. Anyone who
JH>votes for you is enabling dishonesty. Mr. Obama , America cannot trust
JH>that you will put America first in your decisions about the future. Mr.
JH>Obama, you are not the "change" that America deserves. We cannot trust
JH>you. Mr. Obama, You are not ready and not fit to be commander in chief.
JH>Mr. Obama, John McCain does not have as much money as your campaign to
JH>refute all of your false statements. And for whatever reasons, the
JH>mainstream media will not give adequate coverage or research about your
JH>lies, distortions, word parsing, bad associations, race bating, lack of
JH>operational leadership experience, and general dishonest character.
JH>The media is diverting our attention to your relationships and ignoring the
JH>fact that you lied about those relationships. The fact that you lied is
JH>much more important than the relationships themselves ... just like with
JH>Bill Clinton and Richard Nixon ... Monica Lewinski and Watergate were not
JH>nearly as bad as the fact that those gentlemen lied about the events ...
JH>false witness ... perjury ... your relationships and bad judgements are
JH>bad on their own .... but your lies are even worse. Therefore, by copy of
JH>this memo, all who read this memo are asked to send it to everyone else in
JH>America before it is too late. We need to do the job that the media will
JH>not do.
JH> We need to expose your dishonesty so that every person in America
JH>understands who you really are before election day. Mr. Obama, in a
JH>democracy, we get what we deserve. And God help America if we deserve
JH>you. Michael Master McLean, Virginia * *
