Need We Say More?

One would think that the news this weekend alone would be enough to convince anyone that Barack Obama shouldn't even be in this election, much less winning it.

Here are some highlights to help remind us of the idiocy that is occurring around us:

1. Joe Biden declared that Obama's inexperience and weakness will cause some form of terrorist attack on the US within the first six months of his presidency. http://elections.foxnews.com/2008/10/20/biden-obama-tested-world-months-administration/

2. Obama tried to distance himself from ACORN by saying that his relationship with the group is limited to one lawsuit where he represented ACORN... but Obama had previously said much differently: "I've been fighting alongside ACORN on issues you care about my entire career..." (Steven Malanga, "Organizer In Chief," [New York] City Journal, Summer 2008). http://www.marketwatch.com/news/story/rnc-obamas-acorn-tree/story.aspx?guid=%7B392B81C5-251B-4796-9EB5-9DF2BB22C92F%7D&dist=hppr

3. Last week Joe the Plumber asked Obama about his tax plans and was told by the Senator that his goal is to "spread the wealth." Obama was refering to comments he made regarding a plan that he claims will constitute a tax cut for 95% of Americans. He has said that he will raise taxes on higher income households, and he will give a tax credit to those with lower incomes. How he is to have 5% of Americans pay for his near $1 trillion spending increase is yet to be understood, but that is a different story. His claim to redistribute wealth is straight out socialism. http://www.nypost.com/seven/10152008/news/politics/obama_fires_a_robin_hood_warning_shot_133685.htm

4. Since Joe the Plumber made his historic discovery of Obama's true intentions, the "mainstream media" has tried their hardest to discredit and destroy him. http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,441121,00.html

5. Joe Biden: "I promise you we're going to be sitting here a year from now going oh, my God, Why are they there in the polls, why is the polling so down... There are going to be a lot of you who want to go, whoa, wait a minute, whoa, whoa, whoa; I don't know about that decision because if you think the decision is sound when they're made, which I believe you they will be when they're made, they're not likely going to be as popular as they are sound because if they're popular, they're probably not sound." http://www.glennbeck.com/content/articles/article/198/17035/?ck=1

6. Mainstream media was finally forced to come 'somewhat' clean about their bias towards Obama. This race has been like a lopsided football game where all of the referees are betting on the opposing team, so their calls are all against the home team. On Good Morning America, Newt Gingrich calls Diane Sawyer on the carpet to admit that the media does not give McCain the same treatment it gives Obama. http://newsbusters.org/blogs/scott-whitlock/2008/10/17/abc-gingrich-slams-medias-lack-fairness-mccain-palin

Looking back over the past couple of months, how many scandals or questionable details have come up about John McCain? Yet Obama, with all of these issues still leads in the polls.
