Dirt on Barack Obama: Exelon, Tony Rezko, William Ayers, Rashid Khalidi

Posted Sun, Feb 17, 2008 at 1:42 pm
The Queen's minions have been busy digging up dirt on the Man of Hope. First up is Larry Johnson with this warning about Barack Obama's links to three questionable figures: Tony Rezko, William Ayers, and Rashid Khalidi. The first will go on trial later this month, the second is a self-admitted terrorist, the third an alleged "PLO activist".

Earlier this month, the New York Times offered "Nuclear leaks, response tested Obama in Senate". Nuclear plants run by Exelon Corporation in Illinois leaked radioactive materials into the groundwater. Obama highlighted legislation he supported that required plants to notify authorities when even minor leaks occur, and he boasted about it in his infamous speeches:
A close look at the path his legislation took tells a very different story. While he initially fought to advance his bill, even holding up a presidential nomination to try to force a hearing on it, Mr. Obama eventually rewrote it to reflect changes sought by Senate Republicans, Exelon and nuclear regulators. The new bill removed language mandating prompt reporting and simply offered guidance to regulators, whom it charged with addressing the issue of unreported leaks... Those revisions propelled the bill through a crucial committee. But, contrary to Mr. Obama’s comments in Iowa, it ultimately died amid parliamentary wrangling in the full Senate.
As NBC's Lisa Myers reports here, employees of Exelon are Obama's fourth-largest contributor, having given him $269,000. Taylor Marsh has more here.

UPDATE: More dirt here:
In his books, Obama admits attending "socialist conferences" and coming into contact with Marxist literature. But he ridicules the charge of being a "hard-core academic Marxist," which was made by his colorful and outspoken 2004 U.S. Senate opponent, Republican Alan Keyes.

However, through [his childhood mentor] Frank Marshall Davis, Obama had an admitted relationship with someone who was publicly identified as a member of the Communist Party USA (CPUSA). The record shows that Obama was in Hawaii from 1971-1979, where, at some point in time, he developed a close relationship, almost like a son, with Davis, listening to his "poetry" and getting advice on his career path. But Obama, in his book, Dreams From My Father, refers to him repeatedly as just "Frank."

The reason is apparent: Davis was a known communist who belonged to a party subservient to the Soviet Union. In fact, the 1951 report of the Commission on Subversive Activities to the Legislature of the Territory of Hawaii identified him as a CPUSA member. What’s more, anti-communist congressional committees, including the House Un-American Activities Committee (HUAC), accused Davis of involvement in several communist-front organizations...
UPDATE 2: Here are even more Obama issues.

This is stupid. To dig up stuff on Barack about "Frank Marshall Davis as though Barack's friendship with him during Jr. High and High school as some sort of sinister evil is stupid. Kids at that age can be influenced by all kinds of people (good or bad) and they eventually learn to separate the two. This article is about fear mongering and it really has little to no substance at all. It's the old guilt by association argument and it is old, outdated and needs to go right back in the 100 year old dustbin.

This article belongs in the giant Bush administration fear-mongering trash compactor. I've noticed if someone was for Bush and is against Obama, 99.9999% of the time, they are openly or closet racist. They also tend to not be educated or be able to spell correctly. You know, I think I understand how hard it can be to think logically sometimes and read the tea leaves/read between the lines. But you morons got to wake the f*** up. When history looks back at this time, they will wonder what the racists thought of Obama being President. And they will read articles of how there were rumors he was a terrorist sneaking into the white house. they will read about how maybe, even though it was 100% refuted, just maybe, even though it was dismissed as UNTRUE, just possibly, he spent time in a madrassa AS A CHILD. so perhaps he was brainwashed and turned into a Terrorist robot?? John Mccain spent 5 1/2 years being tortured in a Communist camp. Because his captors knew he was the son of a Naval officer, he was given 'special and separate' treatment including being allowed access to a hospital. However his torture could have included brainwashing techniques as well. The idea that McCain was brainwashed is FAR MORE LIKELY than Obama. BUT THE IDEA THAT EITHER WAS F'ING BRAINWASHED IS EQUALLY STUPID. THIS IS NOT A MOVIE. this is real life and articles written by this dipsh*t add to the confusion that cause dumb people to be tricked. boo the man who wrote this fear-mongering shit article.

oh yeah a signature of the online troll like the writer of this article is the anonymity. real writers sign everything so people know who wrote it. Cowards and pussies make it harder for you to find out who put these fear-mongering shit words together fuck him or her

I'm really offended by the idea that being friends with a PLO-supporter makes you untrustworthy. What racist, intolerant garbage. Larry C. Johnson should be ashamed.

It seems the more I read about people's opinion of Obama the more they accuse others for not liking him for skin color. I hate racism, all kinds of racism. If you are defending Obama because he is black, or voting for him because he is black, it is racism. Our world has been swept by the "black" community. No longer is there equal rights. Only special privileges. What would happen if a t.v. station came out celebrating white celebrities? it would be racist, yet we have BET, Black Starz, Black History Month. People define racism as a hatred towards another race. But that isnt it. Racism is holding a different standard to someone because of there color. Both good and bad. Just to let yall know i am a 21 year old white guy who refuses to vote in this race war.

One thing i forgot. If your child was being tortured over seas. Would you not do everything in your power to save them. No matter the love for this country, a love for your child will come first.
