The American Thinker has a copy of a letter from Don Fowler and Alice Germond of the DNC, encouraging Democrat voters, especially Hillary voters, to close ranks behind Obama as the party's choice. Apparently, that's not a foregone conclusion yet, as illustrated in a letter (scroll down) from a Hillary supporter in Florida. You remember Florida - it was one of the 2 states that the DNC decided to punish for holding an early primary, except Hillary was determined to fight for those votes. The letter says in part:
So, it seems that all is not roses in Leftville. Even drop-dead Democrats, of which the letter writer is one, have to admit that Obama is a hollow man, with no record and no accomplishments. Should make for an interesting October.
How many people here remember the McGovern campaign? I'm embarrassed to admit that I voted for the man. But, then I learned to read history.
Obama is vitually without a record in the Illinois Senate where he served for one term. He claims that his records were destroyed. Well, I'll be! Just look at that. The only thing that is really clear is that he voted "present" more than 100 times. Is this the record of a man without opinions or is this the record of a man concealing his opinions--leaving no tracks. Its not for me to say which, but only for me to observe that he has no record. So let's look at the US Senate. He has a shockingly thin record of achievement in the US Senate. He has never even held a sub-committee meeting of the committee he chairs, the Senate committee on Afghanistan. I need not point out that we are participating in a shooting war in Afghanistan. I think that fact alone would call for some kind of meeting of the concerned committee. Apparently Senator Obama does not share my concern.
Obama's autobiographical books, particularly the partially fictional "Dreams of My Father", shows clearly his affinity for socialism and Marxism. Given that self-proclaimed pre-disposition it is instructive to see who he has sought out as associates. Bill Ayers, a radical far leftist who bombed the Pentagon and got away without even a trial; his wife Bernadine Dohrn, with a similar record, who thougt it was "cool" that Charles Manson's followers had stuck a fork in their dead victim's abdomen while sharing a meal over her corpse. His wife, Michelle Obama, who was never proud of the US before this. There are many more.
