At the same time, RNC officials said they recognize that the FEC has “no authority” to freeze campaign accounts or to take other actions that would actually prevent the Obama campaign from spending money illegally obtained from foreign nationals to influence the U.S. presidential election.
“The system isn’t designed for actors who are going to ignore the law,” RNC chief legal counsel Sean Cairncross told Newsmax.
A Newsmax analysis of the Obama campaign’s campaign finance disclosures found 60,000 donations in unrounded amounts that fundraising experts said clearly suggested were “foreign currency transactions” translated into U.S. dollars. :evillol:

Obama Affinity to Marxists Dates Back to College Days
Barack Obama shrugs off charges of socialism, but noted in his own memoir that he carefully chose Marxist professors as friends in college.

Barack Obama laughs off charges of socialism. Joe Biden scoffs at references to Marxism. Both men shrug off accusations of liberalism.
But Obama himself acknowledges that he was drawn to socialists and even Marxists as a college student. He continued to associate with Marxists later in life, even choosing to launch his political career in the living room of a self-described Marxist, William Ayers, in 1995, when Obama was 34.
Obama's affinity for Marxists began when he attended Occidental College in Los Angeles.
"To avoid being mistaken for a sellout, I chose my friends carefully," the Democratic presidential candidate wrote in his memoir, "Dreams From My Father." "The more politically active black students. The foreign students. The Chicanos. The Marxist professors and structural feminists."
Obama's interest in leftist politics continued after he transferred to Columbia University in New York. He lived on Manhattan's Upper East Side, venturing to the East Village for what he called "the socialist conferences I sometimes attended at Cooper Union."
After graduating from Columbia in 1983, Obama spent a year working for a consulting firm and then went to work for what he described as "a Ralph Nader offshoot" in Harlem.
"In search of some inspiration, I went to hear Kwame Toure, formerly Stokely Carmichael of …Black Panther fame, speak at Columbia," Obama wrote in "Dreams," which he published in 1995. "At the entrance to the auditorium, two women, one black, one Asian, were selling Marxist literature."
Obama supporters point out that plenty of Americans flirt with radical ideologies in college, only to join the political mainstream later in life. But Obama, who made a point of noting how "carefully" he chose his friends in college, also chose to launch his political career in the Chicago living room of Ayers, a domestic terrorist who in 2002 proclaimed: "I am a Marxist."
Also present at that meeting was Ayers' wife, fellow terrorist Bernardine Dohrn, who once gave a speech extolling socialism, communism and "Marxism-Leninism."
Obama has been widely criticized for choosing the Rev. Jeremiah Wright, an anti-American firebrand, as his pastor. Wright is a purveyor of black liberation theology, which analysts say is based in part on Marxist ideas.
Few political observers go so far as to accuse Obama, the Democratic presidential nominee, of being a Marxist. But Republican John McCain has been accusing Obama of espousing socialism ever since the Democrat told an Ohio plumber named Joe earlier this month that he wanted to "spread the wealth around."
Obama's running mate, Biden, recently contradicted his boss, saying: "He is not spreading the wealth around." The remark came as Biden was answering a question from a TV anchor who asked: "How is Senator Obama not being a Marxist if he intends to spread the wealth around?"
"Are you joking? Is this a joke? Or is that a real question?" an incredulous Biden shot back. "It's a ridiculous comparison."
But the debate intensified Monday with the surfacing of a 2001 radio interview in which Obama lamented the Supreme Court's inability to enact "redistribution of wealth" -- a key tenet of socialism. On Tuesday, McCain said Obama aspires to become "Redistributionist-in-Chief."
Obama has managed to cultivate the image of a political moderate in spite of his consistently liberal voting record. In 2006, he published a second memoir, "The Audacity of Hope," that leaves little doubt about his adherence to the left.
"The arguments of liberals are more often grounded in reason and fact," Obama wrote in "Audacity." "Much of what I absorbed from the sixties was filtered through my mother, who to the end of her life would proudly proclaim herself an unreconstructed liberal."
National Journal magazine ranked Obama as the most liberal member of the Senate. The publication is far from conservative, employing such journalists as Linda Douglass, who resigned in May to become Obama's traveling press secretary.

I doubt that you or the average American actually knows what Marxism is beyond what you read in Wikipedia after someone questions you about it.
Beyond the (irrational) "fear" that labelling someone as being a Marxist (or communist for that matter) brings, it means nothing, especially today.
Being Marxist is no indication of whether a person is good or bad or a terrorist.
Because no one has asked in a while, what makes John McCain the better candidate?

Here is some interesting news. Guns sales in the U.S. is up. Either fears about Obama and his position on guns and maybe the economy according to the article below.

Gun Sales Thriving Despite Tough Economy
Washington Post: Purchases Up 8 To 10 Percent Due To Economic Concerns And Fears Of More Gun Control If Obama Wins Election
http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2008/10/27/politics/washingtonpost/main4547564.shtml
I was at one of the local gun shops getting a new mag for my AK47 which I use for military training. According to the owner Kirk his sales are up over 200%. :eek: Man these people are buying semi-automatic handguns and assault rifles like the M4, M16 and AK47s. Then while I was watching the local ABC evening news and according to an DNC/Obama spokeswoman she stated that the reason for higher gun sales is because the hunting season has started. :screwy:
I mean who the hell goes deer hunting with an assault rifle? :rolleyes: Last time I checked the game warden will throw you in jail if you use those type weapons to hunt.

The damn media turns it all into monsters from hell. That dipshit thinks a spin response like that is believable. :shakehead And these asshats may end up running the country. :banghead:
Semi-auto sales are WAY up around here, too. Looks like they're getting ready for war. Makes you wonder, doesn't it? The sky might not be fallin', but it's starting to look a little heavier these days.
We just bought a new freezer and the neighbor across the street was watching us take it in the house. He came over and half jokingly asked us if we were getting ready for the coming revolution. The worst part of it is that I didn't think it was an odd question to ask.
I joked about laying in more ammo and he said he already got more and traffic is brisk at the local gun shop. Well, I'd be lying if I said I didn't order another 12 gauge pump and some 00, 000, and rifled slugs. Gotta be prepared for "varmints" ya know. :sly:

He did nothing to reform it: http://chicagoagainstobama. wordpress. com/ (http://www.msplinks.com/MDFodHRwOi8vY2hpY2Fnb2FnYWluc3RvYmFtYS53b3JkcHJlc3 MuY29tLw==)

Barack Obama has the most liberal voting record of any other United States Senator: http://nj. nationaljournal. com/voteratings/ (http://www.msplinks.com/MDFodHRwOi8vbmoubmF0aW9uYWxqb3VybmFsLmNvbS92b3Rlcm F0aW5ncy8=)
Obama had his first political mentor Alice Palmer, thrown off the ballot in Illinois in order to take her place in the Illinois State Senate.
It was Alice Palmer who introduced Obama to the domestic terrorists William Ayers and Bernardine Dohrn:

While Obama talks a lot about “crossing the aisle”.
His actual record in this regard is very meager: http://www. washingtontimes. com/news/2008/sep/15/records-show-mccain-more-bipartisan/ (http://www.msplinks.com/MDFodHRwOi8vd3d3Lndhc2hpbmd0b250aW1lcy5jb20vbmV3cy 8yMDA4L3NlcC8xNS9yZWNvcmRzLXNob3ctbWNjYWluLW1vcmUt YmlwYXJ0aXNhbi8=)

Obama claimed credit for sponsoring legislation that was actually given to him by his mentor Illinois Senate President Emil Jones.
Obama repaid Jones with $300 million of earmarks for Illinois, including tens of millions of dollars of earmarks for pet projects in Emil Jones district: http://www. talkleft. com/story/2008/3/23/224059/069 (http://www.msplinks.com/MDFodHRwOi8vd3d3LnRhbGtsZWZ0LmNvbS9zdG9yeS8yMDA4Lz MvMjMvMjI0MDU5LzA2OQ==)

Obama implied he was poor and grew up on food stamps; Obama grew up mostly with his grandparents, who were upper middle-class bankers in Hawaii.
Food stamps weren’t available in Hawaii until the seventies: http://sweetness-light. com/archive/when-was-obamas-mom-on-food-stamps (http://www.msplinks.com/MDFodHRwOi8vc3dlZXRuZXNzLWxpZ2h0LmNvbS9hcmNoaXZlL3 doZW4td2FzLW9iYW1hcy1tb20tb24tZm9vZC1zdGFtcHM=)
Obama threw his grandmother who raised him under the bus, comparing her attitudes to Rev.
Jeremiah Wright’s racism and later calling her a “typical white person”: http://blog. washingtonpost. com/the-trail/2008/01/14/obama_and_the_race_card_1. html (http://www.msplinks.com/MDFodHRwOi8vYmxvZy53YXNoaW5ndG9ucG9zdC5jb20vdGhlLX RyYWlsLzIwMDgvMDEvMTQvb2JhbWFfYW5kX3RoZV9yYWNlX2Nh cmRfMS5odG1s)

In 2007, Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama signed a pledge to not campaign in Florida. The Democratic National Committee (DNC) was punishing Florida for moving the Primary to January 29.
Obama broke his pledge and ran ads in Florida: http://www. heraldtribune. com/article/20080123/NEWS/801230668/-1/RSS01 (http://www.msplinks.com/MDFodHRwOi8vd3d3LmhlcmFsZHRyaWJ1bmUuY29tL2FydGljbG UvMjAwODAxMjMvTkVXUy84MDEyMzA2NjgvLTEvUlNTMDE=)
Obama who runs as a candidate of change helped keep Chicago politics dirty by supporting the corrupt John Stroger over Forrest Claypool, a progressive reformer, for President of the Cook County Board of Commissioners: http://findarticles. com/p/articles/mi_m1282/is_16_60/ai_n28028562/pg_2 (http://www.msplinks.com/MDFodHRwOi8vZmluZGFydGljbGVzLmNvbS9wL2FydGljbGVzL2 1pX20xMjgyL2lzXzE2XzYwL2FpX24yODAyODU2Mi9wZ18y)

Obama claims to not accept oil money, but in fact he has accepted more than $213,000 from individuals who work for companies in the oil and gas industry and their spouses.
Two of
Obama's bundlers are top executives at oil companies and are listed on his Web site as raising between $50,000 and $100,000 for him: http://www. newsweek. com/id/129895 (http://www.msplinks.com/MDFodHRwOi8vd3d3Lm5ld3N3ZWVrLmNvbS9pZC8xMjk4OTU=)
Obama claims to have no ties to lobbyists, but several registered lobbyists have raised over a million dollars for his campaign, sometimes having their wives write the check to conceal his ties to them: http://americandigest. org/mt-archives/bad_americans/hows_that_obama. php (http://www.msplinks.com/MDFodHRwOi8vYW1lcmljYW5kaWdlc3Qub3JnL210LWFyY2hpdm VzL2JhZF9hbWVyaWNhbnMvaG93c190aGF0X29iYW1hLnBocA== )
