Obama moving toward center
He would expand the government's wiretap powers and allow states to execute certain rapists.

Senator Obama is doing what all politicians do at this point in the election cycle which is tell those in middle what he thinks they want to hear. He is not moving toward the middle, he is talking toward the middle

I always thought he was a little short to play center. Couple that with smoking and being less than half black and I don't really see him making the team. But what the hell,he's already done a great job in fooling most people.

From a former strong Obama supporter: "No more politics as usual" was his theme. Yet your article all too clearly articulates, by comparing the way he is now running his campaign post-primary win with the way John McCain is - absolutely no difference. They are both triangulating, shifting, "playing the game" of: How can I convince more people to vote for me? By becoming what I think they want me to become.(And in the process, has casually tossed aside a huge chunk of folk who helped him secure the nomination, now that he doesn't need them.)
Sigh. I wish both of them well.(And will vote for neither, but have decided to write in the name of someone who does not manipulate or "play the game." And yes, they do exist.) |

Don't drink the kool-aid; he is NOT a centist. In truth, McCain is probably closer to the center--likely TOO close for the conservative base to be comfortable. But he knows he has their vote regardless.

Obama has definirly flip flopped on 2nd amendment.
So, he has "ALWAYS" been for the 2nd amendment, eh? What a liar. " “I knew Obama during the mid-1990s. The first time I introduced myself to him he said ‘Oh, you are the gun guy.’ I responded ‘Yes, I guess so.’ He simply responded,‘I don’t believe that people should be able to own guns.”’ —Professor John Lott, PhD, author of More Guns, Less Crime" |

Wow that was messed up. Quote was supposed to have been
I knew Obama during the mid-1990s. The first time I introduced myself to him he said, Oh, you are the gun guy. I responded. Yes, I guess so. He simply responded, I dont believe that people should be able to own guns. When I said it might be fun to talk about the question sometime and about his support of the city of Chicagos lawsuit against the gun makers, he simply grimaced and turned away, ending the conversation.

Barack Hussein Obama cannot be trusted.

No way this guy disguises his far, far, far left beliefs and agenda. Jimmy Carter, Pelosi, Kennedy, etc. look conservative next to this guy.

Obama will do or say anything to get elected. I am very, very wary of him.

Two months ago 'Jimma' Obama claimed that people only clinged to guns because they are stupid.
Now, he claims he supports the 2nd Amendment. What a buffoon. His flip-flopping just highlights his lack of experience. |

Obama’s Muslim Heritage by Haroon Siddiqui JAKARTA–Barack Hussein Obama Jr. spent part of his youth here in Indonesia, the world’s most populous Muslim nation. The entrance foyer to his elementary school has a photograph, 2 metres by 1.3 metres, of the hajj, the annual Muslim pilgrimage to Mecca in Saudi Arabia. Ten steps into the crowded rectangular courtyard and you can see his old homeroom, adjacent to the stairway leading to the second floor mosque, where he studied Islam. He had a different name then, Barry Soetoro, after his stepfather. His mother, the Kansas-born Ann Dunham, first married a Kenyan, Barack Hussein Obama. Her second husband was the Indonesian Lolo Soetoro, with whom she moved here in 1967. Obama was enrolled in a Catholic primary school, and then for his Grades 3 and 4 in what is now called the Model Primary School, a much-sought after public school in an elite leafy neighbourhood. Three of his teachers have said he was enrolled as a Muslim. In his autobiography, Dreams From My Father, he mentions his Qur’an studies here. A classmate of his in Jakarta has said that Obama used to wear a sarong and accompany his father to the neighbourhood mosque, but that his mother used to go to church. |
