I hope that one of these days, the public is going to realize
that the left is running one of the biggest hypocritical double
standards around. They can say anything about conservatives, no
matter how untrue, just to make conservatives look bad, but even
true things can't be mentioned about liberals if it makes the
liberals look bad. This has been going on longer than I have been
alive, so maybe the press will change before the public catches
on.

I am not sure of the magazine editor's interpretation of the cover
as satire aimed at us unsophisticates. After all, Obama belonged
for most of his adult life to a revolutionary racist "church." His
close personal friends for many years have been domestic terrorists
and Palestinian "charity" organizations. He wants to sit down with
Ahmadinejad to "negotiate" the demise of Israel. According to the
Quran edicts, a son of a Muslim father must be killed if the former
abandons the faith -- there must be a "fatwa" to that effect
somewhere. And in a few days Abu Hussein will visit Ramallah for
private talks with Palestinian terrorists. So where exactly is that
"satire" in the New Yorker magazine cover?

Brilliant, Jeffrey, brilliant. Now if they will only say, "damn
the Tupolev, full speed ahead."

As always, the Bible has a trenchant version of the Tupelov story.
"He who digs a pit for others will fall into it himself (Prov.26:27)."
The older I get, the happier I am that I spent 3 years at Bible
College. I wonder if Reverends Wright and Jack$on ever stumbled
across that verse?

"On issue after issue, whether confessing to a mistake or tailoring his latest position for political effect ("moving to the center" is what they call this in political lingo), Obama's words are now increasingly being received as bald untruths."
C’mon, Jeffrey, you can say it: The arrogant, narcissistic, empty suit from Chicago's words are rightfully being received as "bald-faced lies."
By the way, the self-directed torpedo of the leftists, liberals and Democrats has already hit the ship Obama and detonated well below the waterline. While it's sinking fast, the ship's not completely at the bottom yet.
But it will be. Soon. And not even Capt.-- sorry, Admiral of All
the Fleets That Ever Sailed -- Obama can stop that final
descent.

As of 7/15/08, at 3:12 AM CST, the act of googling "Obama lies" gets you 81,800 hits; googling the string "Obama lies" WITHOUT quotation marks gets you 11,800,000 hits. Mr. Lord's article on your site, dated 7/15/08, claims that googling "Obama lies" gets you "thirteen million" hits. So let's say Mr. Lord's version of Google gets a few more hits than mine, but is otherwise accurate, and that Mr. Lord's figures come from googling word strings without enclosing quotation marks. If this is the case, then how do we make sense of his claim that the phrase "McCain lies" gets only 213,000 hits? I just googled "McCain lies" two minutes ago and got 7,400,000 hits! I believe Mr. Lord is lying, in an article about lying!
Please rectify this.

The very essence of Obama is a lie living a lie: he's not honestly black; he entered Harvard dishonestly as an affirmative action candidate; his affected superiority complex is a lie to cover his inferiorities.
