Obama’s Third-Party History - Stanley Kurtz - National Review Online:

Is it just me or do Obama supporters actually expend more effort denying facts that are provably true than they spend promoting plans and policies for good governance that are not. The most recent example of a fact they deny is outlined in this excellent article in National Review Online and quoted below:
  

Minutes of the meeting on January 11, 1996, of the New Party’s Chicago chapter read as follows:

Barack Obama, candidate for State Senate in the 13th Legislative District, gave a statement to the membership and answered questions. He signed the New Party “Candidate Contract” and requested an endorsement from the New Party. He also joined the New Party.


 The party’s official “statement of principles,” which candidates seeking endorsement from the Chicago chapter were asked to support, called for a “peaceful revolution” and included redistributive proposals substantially to the left of the Democratic party.

 What's a little contract between friends trying to start a "peaceful revolution"?

Is Random Predictable?

KausFiles | The Daily Caller

As described in the Daily Caller | KausFiles today and quoted below, another close friend and associate of Barack Obama, maybe his closest friend, was "randomly" selected from a large pool of applicants for a huge government grant. It is amazing how random is defined by this administration.

The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) has awarded a $5.9 million grant to a University of Chicago Medical Center program run by one of President Barack Obama’s closest friends.

Obama’s longtime friend, Eric Whitaker, runs the Urban Health Initiative (UHI), which was founded as a means of connecting low-income patients with health clinics in their own communities.

The UHI was one of only 26 programs — out of 3,000 applications — to receive a slice of the $1 billion in taxpayer money from the executive’s “We Can’t Wait” initiative, which is aimed at spurring job growth via executive action, reported Keith Koffler at White House Dossier.

I wonder how many of the disappointed 2,974 applicants visited the White House, played golf with the President, have flown on Air Force One or bundled large sums of campaign funds on his behalf. This would be a great project for an enterprising reporter to delve into how many of the "random 26" have some connection to the administration? Just curious. Random thought.

It seems that if you are a regular visitor to the White House, a large dollar bundler for the re-election campaign or play golf with the President it boosts your "randomness odds" tremendously.  An amazing number of people close to this President have received grants, loans and other largesse. History will not be kind in this regard.

Preaching is apparently very profitable.

Quiet Please

Obama team tried to 'bribe' Jeremiah Wright to keep quiet: book - NYPOST.com:

This story defines "Chicago politics".  It has everthing, power, money, bribery, back room deals, secret meetings, corruption, preachers and local politics they way it was meant to be played in the Windy City. Filthy.

 And, nobody does it better than the Obama machine, the most open administration evah!

As the President's own preacher calls him out about being paid off to shut up, maybe it's time for the media to wake up and smell the shenanigans. Blinders can only keep out so much sunshine.

When the media finally decides is has been a lap dog long enough and brushes off those journalism degrees and starts digging, this administration is going to collapse.  At some point, the media will realize they are being used and embarrassed by the Obama administration.
