McCain Funded Work of Palestinian His Campaign Hopes to Tie to Obama

By Daddy.

Are you as ready as I am to see November 5th?

I am truly worn out from the last two years of politicking. I’m most tired of the lies.

Now I know that politicians stretch the truth. I don’t think that’s a big secret. But my problem with the McInsane people are the downright character busting lies.

First they show a picture of Barack Obama in his native dress, and immediately he’s part of Al Qaeda. Then he’s a terrorist because of his relationship with a professor at the University of Illinois. And lately he’s been called a Socialist/Communist because he wants to get the tax thing back to where it was during Bill Clintons’ years as president.

The Redistributor in Chief is how McInsane and Caribou Barbie put it. But the biggest surprise in this is that these folks at their rallies believe this bullshit.

"See, under a big government, more tax agenda, what you thought was yours would really start belonging to somebody else, to everybody else. If you thought your income, your property, your inventory, your investments were, were yours, they would really collectively belong to everybody. Obama, Barack Obama has an ideological commitment to higher taxes, and I say this based on his record... Higher taxes, more government, misusing the power to tax leads to government moving into the role of some believing that government then has to take care of us. And government kind of moving into the role as the other half of our family, making decisions for us. Now, they do this in other countries where the people are not free. (Sarah Palin..Des Moines Iowa 10-25-08).

See what I mean. Now what I get out of Obama’s plan is that:
“IF YOU MAKE MORE THAN $250,000 PER YEAR YOUR TAXES WILL GO UP”! “95% OF AMERICANS WILL GET A TAX BREAK”!

Now what the hell is so hard to understand about that? They also want you to know that Barack Obama will be taking money from hard working Americans (White folks) to give to people that don’t have an income (Black, and Hispanic Folks).

Now can someone explain to me how you can get a break on taxes if you don’t file for taxes? If you don’t have a job or income, what taxes are these people filing for? They are trying to convince the Rethuglican’s that Obama will take your money, your business, your property, and your first born son, or daughter.

He’s a COMMUNIST!

I feel there should be restrictions on what can, and cannot be said during a political campaign. I mean the folks involved should at least be required to tell the truth about their opponent.

All I see are commercials from the McInsane camp that try to scare, and intimidate people into voting Rethuglican. And now they’re telling us that Barack Obama is partners not only with Bill Ayers, but Rashid Khalidi a PLO member.


Woah!... McCain Blasts Obama Khalidi-- Equates Obama's Radical Pals to Neo-Nazis!!

McCain today said, “The Los Angeles Times refuses to make that videotape public...I’m not in the business of talking about media bias…but what if there was a tape of John McCain with a neo-Nazi outfit...I think the treatment of the issue would be slightly different.”

But McCain has his own connection to Khalidi.

In 1993, McCain became

chairman of the International Republican Institute. He still chairs that respected organization.

That same year, Khalidi helped found the

Center for Palestine Research and Studies, self-described as “an independent academic research and policy analysis institution” created to meet “the need for active Palestinian scholarship on issues related to Palestine.” (Its archived website is HERE.)

Khalidi was on the board of trustees through 1999. According to tax returns the McCain-chaired IRI funded the organization Khalidi founded and served on to the tune of $448,873 in 1998 (click

HERE to see the tax return)* as first reported by Seth Couter Walls at HuffPo.

The IRI continued to give money to the CPRS after Khalidi left the group as well.

Asked to respond to this seeming contradiction, McCain-Palin spokesman Michael Goldfarb writes:

“It's long been clear that Obama and Khalidi have a close relationship--that they were frequent dinner companions. It is another in a series of questionable associations, but it is not the focus of our request that the LA Times release this tape. It's clear from the Times story that the evening featured speeches that were anti-Semitic in tone and anti-Israel in nature. As our initial statement said, 'This campaign wants to know how Barack Obama responded to that hate-speech, whether he was mingling with Ayers, who he once described as 'just a guy in my neighborhood,' and anything else that might be of interest to voters now deciding who to support in this election.'”
(Goldfarb is referring to two speakers at Khalidi's 2003 farewell party: "a young Palestinian American (who) recited a poem accusing the Israeli government of terrorism in its treatment of Palestinians and sharply criticizing U.S. support of Israel. If Palestinians cannot secure their own land, she said, 'then you will never see a day of peace,'" and another who "likened 'Zionist settlers on the West Bank' to Osama bin Laden, saying both had been 'blinded by ideology.'")
Continued Goldfarb: “Why would the media withhold information that might be damaging to a Presidential candidate? It is certainly a luxury that you and your colleagues have never afforded this campaign.”

John McCain Funded Accused PLO Terrorist Rashid Khalidi's Organization

John McCain is the chairman of the board of International Republican Institute, and has been since 1993.

http://www.iri.org/board.aspRashid Khalidi was a founding member in 1993 of the Center for Palestine Research and Studies (CPRS)

http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php...Rashid_Khalidihttp://web.archive.org/web/200012090...out/board.html

A tax filing shows that in 1998 the John McCain-led International Republican Institute gave $448,873 to the CPRS (See grant number 5180, "West Bank: CPRS" on page 14 ) -http://204.203.220.33/EINS/521340267...8_00007739.pdf

So, there you have it. If Rashid Khalidi really is a PLO terrorist (and that is the claim made by some on this board), then John McCain has funded PLO terrorism.
