Most of these are data from Obama's book, which was most likely "Ghost" written by Bill Ayers.  Others are statements you have made during your campaign.  What is amazing is that the media refuses to call him to account for factual errors (that is a PC way of saying he is a liar).

1.) Selma Got Me Born - NOT EXACTLY, your parents felt safe enough to
have you in 1961 - Selma had no effect on your birth, as Selma was in
1965. (Google' Obama Selma ' for his full March 4, 2007 speech and
articles about its various untruths.)

2.) Father Was A Goat Herder - NOT EXACTLY, he was a privileged, well
educated youth, who went on to work with the Kenyan Government.

3.) Father Was A Proud Freedom Fighter - NOT EXACTLY, he was part of one
of the most corrupt and violent governments Kenya has ever had.

4.) My Family Has Strong Ties To African Freedom - NOT EXACTLY; your
cousin Raila Odinga has created mass violence in attempting to overturn
a legitimate election in 2007, in Kenya . It is the first widespread
violence in decades. The current government is pro-American but Odinga
wants to overthrow it and establish Muslim Sharia law. Your
half-brother, Abongo Obama, is Odinga's follower. You interrupted your
New Hampshire campaigning to speak to Odinga on the phone.

Obama's cousin Odinga in Kenya ran for president and tried to get Sharia
muslim law in place there. When Odinga lost the elections, his followers
have burned Christians' homes and then burned men, women and children
alive in a Christian church where they took shelter.. Obama SUPPORTED
his cousin before the election process here started. Google Obama and
Odinga and see what you get. No one wants to know the truth.

5.) My Grandmother Has Always Been A Christian - NOT EXACTLY, she does
her daily Salat prayers at 5am according to her own interviews. Not to
mention, Christianity wouldn't allow her to have been one of 14 wives to
1 man.

6.) My Name is African Swahili - NOT EXACTLY, your name is Arabic and
'Baraka' (from which Barack came) means 'blessed' in that language.
Hussein is also Arabic and so is Obama.

Barack Hussein Obama is not half black. If elected, he would be the
first Arab-American President, not the first black President. Barack
Hussein Obama is 50% Caucasian from his mother's side and 43.75% Arabic
and 6.25% African Negro from his father's side. While Barack Hussein
Obama's father was from Kenya , his father's family was mainly Arabs..
Barack Hussein Obama's father was only 12.5% African Negro and 87.5%
Arab (his father's birth certificate even states he's Arab, not African
Negro). From....and for more....go to.....

registered as Muslim there and got in trouble in Koranic Studies for
making faces (check your own book).

February 28, 2008. Kristoff from the New York Times a year ago: Mr.
Obama recalled the opening lines of the Arabic call to prayer, reciting
them with a first-rate accent. In a remark that seemed delightfully
uncalculated (it'll give Alabama voters heart attacks); Mr. Obama
described the call to prayer as 'one of the prettiest sounds on Earth at
sunset.' This is just one example of what Pamela is talking about when
she says 'Obama's narrative is being altered, enhanced and manipulated
to whitewash troubling facts.'

9.) I Was Fluent In Indonesian - NOT EXACTLY, not one teacher says you
could speak the language.

10.) Because I Lived In Indonesia , I Have More Foreign Experience - NOT
EXACTLY, you were there from the ages of 6 to 10, and couldn't even
speak the language. What did you learn, how to study the Koran and watch

(surprise) and the Middle East (bigger surprise); you have never been
anywhere else on the planet and thus have NO experience with our closest
allies.

12.) I Blame My Early Drug Use On Ethnic Confusion - NOT EXACTLY, you
were quite content in high school to be Barry Obama, no mention of Kenya
and no mention of struggle to identify - your classmates said you were
just fine.

13.) An Ebony Article Moved Me To Run For Office - NOT EXACTLY, Ebony
has yet to find the article you mention in your book. It doesn't, and
never did, exist.

14.) A Life Magazine Article Changed My outlook on Life - NOT EXACTLY,
Life has yet to find the article you mention in your book. It doesn't,
and never did, exist.

15.) I Won't Run On A National Ticket In '08 - NOT EXACTLY, here you
are, despite saying, live on TV, that you would not have enough
experience by then, and you are all about having experience first.

ON LEAVE.

19.) I Was A Constitutional Lawyer - NOT EXACTLY, you were a senior
lecturer ON LEAVE.

20.) Without Me, There Would Be No Ethics Bill - NOT EXACTLY, you didn't
write it, introduce it, change it, or create it.

21.) The Ethics Bill Was Hard To Pass - NOT EXACTLY, it took just 14
days from start to finish.

22.) I Wrote A Tough Nuclear Bill - NOT EXACTLY, your bill was rejected
by your own party for its pandering and lack of all regulation - mainly
because of your Nuclear donor, Exelon, from which David Axelrod came.

all the special interests pork hidden within.

part of a large group of people who remedied Altgeld Gardens You failed

supporters claim to have not seen BOLD action on your part.

27.) I Passed 26 Of My Own Bills In One Year - NOT EXACTLY, they were
not YOUR bills, but rather handed to you, after their creation by a
fellow Senator, to assist you in a future bid for higher office.

28.) No One on my campaign contacted Canada about NAFTA - NOT EXACTLY,
the Canadian Government issued the names and a memo of the conversation
your campaign had with them.

Resolution vote on terrorism and your good friend Ali Abunimah supports
the destruction of Israel .

Can you imagine this happening in the post-9/11 world? The worst part about it is that Ayers (at whose house Barack Obama launched his campaign for state senate in 1995) has never expressed a shred of regret for any of it. He’s said that he wished he and his group had set more bombs.

6 March 1970 – “bomb factory” located in New York’s Greenwich Village accidentally explodes. WUO members Theodore die in t. The bomb was intended to be planted at a non-commissioned officer’s dance at Fort Dix, New Jersey. The bomb was packed with nails TO INFILICT MAXIMUM CASUALTIES UPON DETONATION.

Ayers should still be in prison. Instead, he’s been appearing at political events with Barack Obama.[/quote]

http://sayanythingblog.com/entry/a_timeline_of_crim e_for_obamas_buddy_william_ayers/

This is really an embarrassment to have a person, like Obama, who is supported and endorsed by terrorists (past and present), criminals (Tony Rezko), communists (Saul Alinslky), traitors (Jane Fonda) and radical socialists and racists (Jerimiah Wtight and Jim Cohn) running for president of the U.S.A .  What has happened to the common sence of America?

BOUND IN GRATITUDE

Oh, How oft I do forget,

The blessing that you are to me.

What greater ills my life would be beset,

If  you weren’t  there,

To lean upon, to share my tears,

As together on our quest we go,

Hand in hand our Lord to see.

This race though, that we seek to run,

Without a friend my stumbling would prevail,

But for your prayers,

That Christ’s grace for me avail,

Despite my talk, despite my walk,

His mercy doth He richly pour,

Upon this object of travail.

More than in the spirit doth thou sustain,

With tender glance and thoughtful prose,

You make me feel of royal blood,

In a world of thistles you’re my rose,

With fragrant scent, with petals unspent,

Only one greater love doth there abound,

And that only God Himself can know.

Both of these are part of my collection but there meaning has been greatly applified by the loss of my youngest son.

The first is actually a discription and impressions of my grandparents bedroom.  The second of their big old chests in the attic full of stuff.  I now have a special chest for things that were special to my son Ryan.  Copyright... 1991

DAYS GONE BY

Piercing thru the morning mist,
Light enters her silent room,
Passing lace curtains of antiquity,
Yellowing under layers of dust,
A reminder of days gone by.

The wicker rocker sits still,
Facing the window and the street below,
White paint chipping away,
Revealing varied hand painted hues,
A reminder of days gone by.

Neatly folded and draped,
A shawl lays upon the rockers back,
Lovingly made thru tears of pain,
With gnarled and twisted fingers,
A reminder of days gone by.

Framed photographs, black and white,
Faded in age, yet ageless in youth,
Staring into emptyness,
With eyes of uncertainty and doubt,
All reminders of days gone by.

MEMORIES     

Memories.
Packed in a trunk.
Hidden,
In a dark attic.

Thoughts and dreams.
Hopes and accomplishments.     
Collecting dust,
Through neglect

Only....very seldom,
To be seen again.

By the flick of a switch.

                                                      DADDY’S HERE

                                                       Looking Up,
                                       With tearful eyes, so big and brown,
                                                     A trembling lip,
                                                     A runny nose,
                                             And a saddened frown,
                                               Awakened by a dream,
                                                   A night-time fear,
                                                 But it’s alright son,
                                                 Your Daddy’s here.

                                                    Head in hands,
                                      With heavy heart, he sits and cries,
                                                  Between his feet,
                                                His baseball glove,
                                       His cap pulled down to lowered eyes,
                                             Up at bat, he lost the game,
                                               And with a win so near,
                                                  But it’s alright son,
                                                 Your Daddy’s here.

                                                   Forcing a smile,
                                    Pretending disappointment isn’t there,
                                                  A wilted corsage,
                                                   A loosened tie,
                                 The car cleaned and waxed with care,
                                            To be stood up on a date,
                                           By a girl he held so dear,
                                               But it’s alright son,
                                                Your Daddy’s here.
 
                                                  A piercing scream,
                                    She sits in mud, beneath her swing,
                                                   With dirty face,
                                                   And dirty hands,
                                                 And dirty everything.
                                                The fall though small,
                                         Brought both a bruise and tear,
                                                 But it’s alright now,
                                                 Your Grandpa’s here.

Some of my friends have asked me about my poetry, so I thought I would share a few of my more popular ones:  All poems are copyrighted and/or published.

                                                The Swan

                                         Ivory White,
                                             In graceful curves.
                                             Prayer like in poise.
                                                   Unadorned,
                                      And yet more magnificent,
                                       Than the finest of pearls.
                                    Startled....she lifts her head,
                                     From off her tender breast,
                                   This virgin bride of noble birth.
                                               Wings spread,
                                 With a furor of untamed strength.
                                               Rippling sinews,
                             Beneath a softness of snowy down.
                                              Her image blurs,
                                           Upon a sea of glass,
                                          As she begins to rise,
                                          Defying natures laws,
                            Escaping to the freedom of the skies.

                                       (winner of the 1986 Pegasus Award)

                                        The Rose

                                       Head held high,
                                   In royal splendor and elegance,
                                           Her tear streaked face,
                                         Lifted to a passing cloud,
                                                 Crimson cheeks,
                                 Red, like the blood of a fallen lover,
                                   Beginning life closed to the world,
                                                Hiding her secrets,
                                         Only, to open in her fulness,
                                                And share her life,
                                                      In death.

                                                      (Published in "Therehold of a Dream")

                                                Solitary Grief     

                                               Can it be shared
                                            In song or in rhyme,
                                           With memories clear,
                                         Of a loved one not here
                                                 Taken in death
                                        In his season and time?    

                                                Can one express,
                                            In the limits of prose,
                                           The loss in my heart,
                                          The past falling apart,
                                          A weariness in my soul,
                                               Only God knows.   

                                                 Must it be felt,
                                     To know someones grief,
                                          A pain thats so real,
                                    That Gods spirit must heal,
                                          The weeping within,
                                        For a life shared too brief.

This article was well done...and very accurate in examining the early warnings of out present financial crisis by John McCain, when he tried to pass the "Federal Housing Enterprise Regulatory Reform Act of 2005."  Read on.

I hope you haven’t just eaten, because what you are about to read will disturb you–and well it should. It’s proof that John McCain foresaw the Freddie Mac, Fannie Mae disaster in 2006– and tried against all Obama-Like minds to ward it off.

Below are John McCain’s remarks urging the passage of the Federal Housing Enterprise Regulatory Reform Act of 2005, which he co-sponsored and which was rendered “Dead” in Congress.

Guess who prevailed and didn’t take heed? Or more appropriately, guess who deliberately “looked the other way”?

This is all we need to know to understand exactly WHICH candidate in this election is willing to break some eggs when it comes to Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac–two organizations that, with the help of certain Democrats, deliberately redistributed wealth the easy way. Now we are all paying for it, as intended all along. Just as John McCain warned below.

As we view the carnage, this is all we need to know to understand exactly WHICH candidate foresaw this carnage we are witnessing, and which candidate worked to convince the other candidate to help avoid it. It is all we need to know to recognize exactly WHICH candidate had the right judgment and was looking out for the rest of us.

Joe Biden? It’s time for US to be Patriotic? No. It’s time for YOU to be patriotic. In fact, it’s too late. As for you saying, “It’s time to be part of the deal”. We want no part of this “deal”. And what a “deal” it was!

May 26, 2006

Mr. President, this week Fannie Mae’s regulator reported that the company’s quarterly reports of profit growth over the past few years were “illusions deliberately and systematically created” by the company’s senior management, which resulted in a $10.6 billion accounting scandal.

The Office of Federal Housing Enterprise Oversight’s report goes on to say that Fannie Mae employees deliberately and intentionally manipulated financial reports to hit earnings targets in order to trigger bonuses for senior executives. In the case of Franklin Raines, Fannie Mae’s former chief executive officer, OFHEO’s report shows that over half of Mr. Raines’ compensation for the 6 years through 2003 was directly tied to meeting earnings targets. The report of financial misconduct at Fannie Mae echoes the deeply troubling $5 billion profit restatement at Freddie Mac.

The OFHEO report also states that Fannie Mae used its political power to lobby Congress in an effort to interfere with the regulator’s examination of the company’s accounting problems. This report comes some weeks after Freddie Mac paid a record $3.8 million fine in a settlement with the Federal Election Commission and restated lobbying disclosure reports from 2004 to 2005. These are entities that have demonstrated over and over again that they are deeply in need of reform.

For years I have been concerned about the regulatory structure that governs Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac–known as Government-sponsored entities or GSEs–and the sheer magnitude of these companies and the role they play in the housing market. OFHEO’s report this week does nothing to ease these concerns. In fact, the report does quite the contrary. OFHEO’s report solidifies my view that the GSEs need to be reformed without delay.

Quick Info
S-90 Federal Housing Enterprise Regulatory Reform Act of 2005
Last Action: Committee on Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs. Ordered to be reported with an amendment in the nature of a substitute favorably.
Status: DeadI join as a cosponsor of the Federal Housing Enterprise Regulatory Reform Act of 2005, S. 190,to underscore my support for quick passage of GSE regulatory reform legislation. If Congress does not act, American taxpayers will continue to be exposed to the enormous risk that Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac pose to the housing market, the overall financial system, and the economy as a whole.

I urge my colleagues to support swift action on this GSE reform legislation.

Update: Well looky here. Here’s a glowing Wall Street piece on Obama, written in June 2008. You would think Mr. “Regulator” Obama really is Jesus looking out for us! But…..here’s the paragraph that hooked me–the paragraph that haunts today:

He characterized the senator as a quick study on financial services, citing his early support of efforts by Senate Banking Committee Chairman Chris Dodd and House Financial Services Committee Chairman Barney Frank to empower the Federal Housing Administration to help struggling homeowners.

Oh they “empowered” all right. The Democrats killed this bill while Dodd, Frank and Obama fiddled and helped Fannie and Freddie cook their books, continue to tank, all the while keeping the regulators out of their way. These are the guys who killed the bill that McCain fought for. The bill that would have avoided the financial disaster we witnessed during the past two weeks. In the meantime, take a look at which senators were feeding at the Fannie Mae/Freddie Mac trough. My party is not what it used to be. My party has not only let me down, but it has also screwed me and my country in the process.

I am at this very moment listening to Barack Obama lie to North Carolina, saying that he has been calling for regulation for years and that the Republicans stopped him. He is saying he can fix this crises that he helped create. This is all too convenient folks. You have seen the proof of who exactly blocked the prevention of this crash.
