1. Obama was against the Iraq war from the start. Very few politicians had the integrity and the judgment to know that the Iraq war was a mistake before it began. John McCain certainly did not. McCain was one of the many politicians who thought Iraq would be a short easy war and that American soldiers would be “greeted like liberators” in Iraq.

2. Obama will lower taxes for people making less than $111,645 per year (that includes me, unfortunately!) more than John McCain will. McCain has been running many misleading advertisements which make the claim that Obama is raising taxes across the board. That is not true. Obama is only raising taxes for the very rich and for corporations (who have not paid their fair share of taxes.)

For 90% of Americans, Obama’s plan will bring lower taxes than McCain’s will. This is an important fact not only because of the lower taxes that most Americans will pay but also because it speaks to McCain’s lack of integrity. McCain continues to run ads which disingenuously claim a vote for Obama is a vote for higher taxes.

3. Obama is pro choice and will nominate pro choice judges for the Supreme Court. McCain has said he will be a “pro life President.” Nobody is pro-abortion. It’s not an easy choice for anyone to make, but it is certainly not the Government’s role to tell a woman what she can and cannot do with her own body.

If you believe in a woman’s right to choose it is essential that you support Barack Obama as it’s very likely the next President will be nominating 2 to 3 Supreme Court Justices. If McCain is the one nominating those judges, it’s very possible that Roe V. Wade could be reversed.

4. Foreign policy. Obama showed he had far superior foreign policy judgment with his stance on Iraq. The things he said about the Iraq war before it had even begun all turned out to be true. We need a President who has judgment and the ability to know when and where to strike. The shoot first ask questions later cowboy mentality of the Bush/Cheney administration would be made even worse by McCain who, as Pat Buchanan put it, would make “Cheney look like Gandhi.”

5. International respect. George W. Bush has been a humongous embarrassment for Americans. People all over the world now think of Americans as morons. Barack Obama is already loved all over the world. He is a brilliant speaker who understands the nuance of how to converse with people from different cultures. He’s preferred in Europe over McCain by enormous margins. Obama as President would instantly make America popular again.

6. Health care. While I do not believe that Barack Obama’s health care plan is the universal plan that our country really needs, it is a good step towards a better plan and it will help to lower health care costs. McCain’s approach would hurt more than help. There would be even more people without health care with McCain as President.

7. Energy. While McCain is harping on the ridiculous non-issue of off shore drilling because he knows it plays well to the many uneducated voters in this country, it is Obama who has a real plan for energy independence. McCain’s off shore drilling plan would only help to make oil companies even more rich. It would not lower gas prices.

NBC News, in particular, was fingered as complicit in the cover-up. While eager to expose a decades-old driving glitch on Sarah Palin’s record, the news department at NBC seemed oblivious to Obama’s evil dark side.

The facts are these.

* Obama was first introduced as the successor of State Senator Alice Palmer at the home of terrorist William Ayers [1995]. * Ayers and cohabitor Bernardine Dohrn (they’re married) “are extremist radicals from the 1960′s anti-war terrorist group the Weather Underground,” noted John Stephenson. * “They are unrepentant in the bombings they were a part of.” * “They disappeared in 1970 after a bomb designed to kill army officers in New Jersey accidentally destroyed a Greenwich Village townhouse.” * “They turned themselves over to authorities in 1980. While the Weather Underground claimed 25 bombings, these characters were never prosecuted.” * “Charges were dropped due to improper FBI surveillance.” * Ayers told the New York Times in 2001: “I don’t regret setting bombs; I feel we didn’t do enough.” * “Ayers, Dohrn, and Obama have appeared together at a number of gatherings and academic events.” * “In November 1997, Ayers and Obama participated in a panel at the University of Chicago entitled Should a child ever be called a ‘super predator?’” [Child, I suppose, is the liberal double-speak for "juvenile delinquent."] * “In April 2002, Ayers, Dohrn, and Obama, then an Illinois State Senator, participated together at a conference entitled ‘Intellectuals: Who Needs Them?’ * Ayers and Obama were two of the six members of the Intellectuals in Times of Crisis’ panel.” * “Ayers…is currently the Board Chairman of the Woods Fund of Chicago and Obama is a former Board member.”

William Ayers is currently a professor of education at the University of Illinois, Chicago. “Ayers is linked to bombings of the United States Capital, the Pentagon, and the Harry S. Truman Building, home of the United States Department of State, along with a series of courthouses, jails, banks, and prison administrative offices. He, along with other members of the Weather Underground, turned themselves in to police in 1981, after a series of official acts of misconduct on behalf of law enforcement officials ensured that they would never be brought to trial for their activities,” according to Mike Tippett at Wake Up America.

* In 2001, while Obama served as the paid Director for the Woods Fund, the organization issued a grant to the Arab American Action Network, a group that has ties to the PLO. * Obama’s ties to Jeremiah Wright are well known. “His church published a very pro-Hamas newsletter, and the churches ties with the Nation of Islam, and Jeremiah Wright’s award to Louis Farrakhan, as well as his visit to Libya to meet Muammer Kaddafi,” wrote Tippett.
