5. Very good friends with William Ayers a former member of the "Weather Underground" terrorist organization which bombed and killed many Americans in the 1960s.

 “The Speech” has been made and what have we learned? I can only speak for myself and what I have learned is that Sen. Obama has corroborated all my fears regarding his character and his false affection for this country. Actions speak louder than words as the old adage says and Sen. Obama’s actions speak volumes.

White Americans have bent over backwards at every level of society to build a class-less society based on equality and civil rights. Never in my entire life was I ever taught to hate anyone- Black, White, Asian or Hispanic. Throughout my childhood and into adult life my faith experience as a Catholic has been one of tolerance and love towards ALL people. I don’t know anyone who attends a church that preaches these vile and hateful beliefs as is preached at Trinity United Church of Christ in Chicago, IL. If this is mainstream Black Christianity then I must be living in a bubble because the words preached by Rev. Jeremiah Wright are frightening to say the least. Is Black America really this angry and hateful towards its white brothers and sisters? If so then we are in serious trouble as a nation and 40 years of Civil Rights have been a failure. If not, and I believe this is truly the case, then we must ask ourselves why are people like Rev. Jeremiah Wright preaching these types of sermons. I really think that there is a large segment of the Black Community who NEED to hear this to build up their own self-worth, which is sad. The “rich white people” and the “not-so-rich white people” have done their share of building a nation based on the values of the Rev. Martin Luther King and the Civil Rights movement of the 1960’s, 1970’s, 1980’s up to the present.

When will African Americans begin to change their attitude?  When will African Americans begin to change their beliefs? When will African Americans begin to forgive?  When? When? When? Or are they simply going to continue to hate “whitey” and believe this ludicrous crap like “The US government started the AIDs virus to kill Black people”!! I am sick and tired of hearing this stuff!! This anti-American sentiment is now echoed by entire Democrat party and Hollywood too! Sen. Obama is of this sentiment and his “Hope and Change” campaign is nothing but a cover for what he really believes. Below is a little check list of “words” vs actions by Sen. Barack Obama:

Sen. Obama’s Words	Sen. Obama’s Actions
His Campaign Slogan: Change we can believe in!	130 times voting as “Present” during crucial votes in Illinois State Legislature. Tells Canadian Journalist “not to take seriously his anti-NAFTA remarks
Constant message of “HOPE” “A hope that we can live with one another in a way that reconciles the beliefs of each with the good of all.” “But I am hopeful that we can bridge the gaps that exist and overcome the prejudices each of us bring to this debate. And I have faith that millions of believing Americans want that to happen.” “We think of faith as a source of comfort and understanding but find our expressions of faith sowing division; we believe ourselves to be a tolerant people even as racial, religious, and cultural tensions roil the landscape. And instead of resolving these tensions or mediating these conflicts, our politics fans them, exploits them, and drives us further apart.” “I have not personally heard him speak like this before, not while I was present.” “This is not the Rev. Wright that I know.”	Sen. Obama and his FAMILY attend for 20 yrs now, Trinity United Church of Christ in Chicago. Sen. Obama in his own words is “mentored” by Rev. Jeremiah Wright- who preaches the following: “Not God Bless America, but rather God Damn America” “Not the USA but USKKKA” “America is ruled by rich white people” Rev. Jeremiah Wright espouses the belief of Black Liberation Theology which states the following: “Black theology refuses to accept a God who is not identified totally with the goals of the black community. If God is not for us and against white people, then he is a murderer, and we had better kill him. The task of black theology is to kill Gods who do not belong to the black community. . . . Black theology will accept only the love of God which participates in the destruction of the white enemy. What we need is the divine love as expressed in Black Power, which is the power of black people to destroy their oppressors here and now by any means at their disposal. Unless God is participating in this holy activity, we must reject his love.” -  Jim Cone, Theologian at Union Theological Seminary Barack Obama and his family still attend this church and it has been proven that he was in attendance for Rev. Wright’s “God Damn America” Sermon
"Keeping faith with those who serve must always be a core American value and a cornerstone of American patriotism. Because America's commitment to its servicemen and women begins at enlistment, and it must never end."	Sen. Obama won’t salute the flag Sen. Obama refuses to say the Pledge of Allegiance Sen. Obama won’t wear an American Flag pin Mrs. Obama states “This is the first time in my adult life that I have felt pride in my country” (Supported  and defended by Mr. Obama as a “misunderstanding”)

Recent remarks by Sen. Obama on homosexual marriage, abortion and his “Christian” faith have become old news, but I would like to revive the issue because of its importance in our getting to know this man, who thus far is still unknown to a majority of Americans. A frightening thought really!! First, in Obama’s own words so I don’t get accused of misquoting the man:

Homosexual Mariage:

“I don’t think it [a same-sex union] should be called marriage, but I think that it is a legal right that they should have that is recognized by the state”. If people find that controversial then I would just refer them to the Sermon on the Mount, which I think is, in my mind, for my faith, more central than an obscure passage in Romans.”

Abortion:

“I think that the bottom line is that in the end, I think women, in consultation with their pastors, and their doctors, and their family, are in a better position to make these decisions than some bureaucrat in Washington. That’s my view. Again, I respect people who may disagree, but I certainly don’t think it makes me less Christian. Okay.”

His Christian Faith:

“I am a Christian. I am adevoutChristian. I’ve been a member of the same church for 20 years, pray to Jesus every night, and try to go to church as much as I can when they are not working me. Used to go quite often.”

I am, of course, approaching Sen. Obama from a Conservative Catholic perspective, but that being said, I find his opinions and his actions to be very troubling to say the least. First of all, to simply say that we should refer to the Sermon on the Mount and let the dictum, (I am assuming) “Do unto others” be our basis for instituting homosexual unions goes beyond logic. What of Jesus’ words on Adultery, and Divorce? Sen. Obama’s take on Christianity is one of convenience. Just like a lawyer to twist and turn the words of someone to your own advantage. And I would like to remind Sen.Obama that it was NOT “some bureaucrat in Washington” which brought us 50 million dead babies since Roe v. Wade, but the Supreme Court. As a lawyer I thought he would have known that by now.

As for Abortion his “laisez faire” style of Christianity rears its ugly head again. In other words Jesus has told us to be absolutely tolerant of everything and everyone regardless of the consequences, even if it means killing an infant that has survived an abortion. It’s kill and kill again as far as Sen. Obama is concerned. When Sen. Obama was State Senator in Illinois he voted three times against the “Born Alive Infant Protection Act” and refused to support Anti-Partial-Birth Abortion bills. But to deny aid to a baby that has survived a labor-induced abortion goes beyond the realm of common sense. Is this the “do unto others” type of compassion I should expect in my old age if his kind of logic deems me undeserving of life? Mychal Massie, noted African-American Conservative wrote the following:

Obama’s support for murdering children transcends his support for the extermination of unborn babies. While holding elected office in Illinois, he opposed S.B. 1093 the "Born Alive Infant Protection Act" on the grounds that the measure didn't include a "life and health of the mother" provision. He then refused to support two subsequent bans that did include exceptions for the safety of the mother. He refused to support anti-partial-birth abortion bills H.B. 383 and S.B. 230.

He refused to support S.B. 1095, which created a cause of action for harm or neglect that would come to a child "born alive" after a labor-induced abortion, supporting instead the barbaric practice of letting "aborted alive" babies die a grotesquely inhuman and excruciatingly torturous death by being tossed into a pan and left to die. While in the Illinois Legislature, he voted against S.B. 1661, also part of the "Abortion Alive Protection Act," which created the "Induced Birth Infant Liability Act."

Sen.Obama is one frightening individual in this writer’s eyes and if he becomes President with a Socialist Democrat-controlled Congress America will become a horror-show, something akin to Nazi Germany and Soviet Russia. Actually Soviet Russia is probably what Sen. Obama is hoping for.

As you would all might guess, I was quite upset at the withdrawl of Mitt Romney from the GOP presidential campaign. Once again he has proven that he was and is the right man for the job. As his life has always shown, he has put the needs of others before himself. From his rejecting a salary for his job as Governor of Massachusetts to stepping aside for the good of the country.

So, what now? I have heard and read the opinions of Ann Coulter and her thoughts of supporting Hillary Clinton. I am not convinced that supporting Hillary can ever be a good thing- though I hope she wins the nomination of the Socialist-Democrats because I think she can be beat in November. It will be ugly but we could win.  If ever the words "lesser of two evils" could be more apropo than now. I will hold my nose and vote for Sen. McCain but will find it very hard to convince anyone why. And that is exactly what's wrong with the GOP and politics in general. Why are we always faced with "cow poop" or "horsepoop"? As local Radio personality-Jay Severin so aptly stated in regards to the perspective candidates.

There is a school of thought out there which thinks that with the likelihood of a "liberal" president and the obvious disaster to ensue, the responsibility of said disaster should be left solely on the shoulders of the Socialist-Democrats. I would agree with this Machiavellan, being Italian and all, but the next president will be choosing at least two more Supreme Court Justices in the next four years and I can't have Hillary or Hussein choosing lifetime appointees to the highest court in the land. I figure we at least have a chance and a hope that Sen. McCain will choose strict Constitutionalist judges. He has promised this and though I have my doubts I have no choice but to give him the benefit of the doubt.

This year's nomination process for the GOP has left many of us Conservatives scratching our heads and I for one have serious doubts whether the GOP is a good home for me. Maybe it's time to look elsewhere as a Conservative and that elsewhere can only mean starting over again and building a new Conservative movement. A Conservative Party with conservative members. A party where the nominee can honestly promote the conservative agenda. The GOP has failed in this regard and failed miserably by the actions of its elected officials in the Congress to sellouts like the Governors of Florida and California. Laura Ingraham has talked about a resurgence and a liberation of Conservatives in the aftermath of the recent Republican Primary fiasco. She speaks with the spirit of Ronald Reagan- hopefully!! Maybe she is right and this can be a wake-up call to Conservatives across the country to begin to either take back the party or start again.

I will hold my nose and vote for Sen. McCain but for the life of me, I don't know how to campaign for him!!!

I have been a registered Republican for 95% of the last 28 years, ever since I heard Ronald Reagan campaign for the presidency in 1979. The words of Ronald Reagan hit that nerve inside me which inspired a great love for America and what it stood for in the world. It was the "Conservative" message which I so falsely thought was a constricting ideology in college. An ideology which stifled liberty and preserved the status quo- until I started working in the real world and President Reagan and the new Republicans came on the scene. The GOP revitalized Conservatism in a way which would renew this country and end the greatest threat to world peace the world had seen since Nazism- the Soviet Union. The economy was rejuvenated and the Republicans actually had a majority in the Congress for the first time in about 45 years. The Republican Congress which oversaw continued economic growth, reform of the welfare system and the Conservative agenda at its height.

What happened? How could the party of Ronald Reagan begin spending, spending, spending? How could the party of Ronald Reagan incur scandal after scandal and let the Democrats return to power. The Republicans of the sort of Trent Lott and Dick Armey were weak, and easily intimidated. You would have thought that the Republicans had lost the presidency in 2000 and 2004. The Dems have walked all over the Republicans since the day they lost their majority. The Republican leadership is a joke and when traitorous congressmen like Dick Durbin, Jerry Reid and John Murtha spew their anti-American filth- Where was the Republican response? A few admonitions- NOTHING!!! This should have been a red flag to all of us- The Republican Party is Deathly Ill and probably dead already.

I don't have to prove to you anymore why Sen.McCain doesn't deserve our Conservative support- his actions in Congress speak for themselves and quite frankly I am tired of repeating them over and over again. I am finding it very hard to cast my vote for Sen. McCain and most likely not vote at all and write in Mitt Romney. Whether you like it or not Mitt Romney is the only Conservative running for President with a chance to win. Gov. Huckabee cannot win and that is the reality of it pure and simple.

Who and why are Republicans voting for Sen.McCain when he does not uphold the principles of the GOP? This election is being manipulated by the media and the gullibility of the American public is revealiing itself in a most frightening way. Not one Republican voting for Sen.McCain can give a plausable reason why!!! General Grant was a great war hero, but also one of our most corrupt presidents. Abraham Lincoln was a great war President and he never served in the military or if he did without distinction that I know of. So please don't throw Sen.McCain's war record at me.

The Republican Party through its elected officials in Congress have abandoned the Reagan Conservatism which got them elected. These traitors to their office and to the people they represent have become part of the sick, corrupt institution which we call "Washington". They have been bought and paid for by special interests and become indistinguishable from their Democrat counterparts. Where is my Party?

Why is a man who is averaging no more than 36% of the vote winning the nomination of the GOP? Ask yourslves that question. The dirty politics which occurred in West Virginia is the tip of a deadly iceberg. I expect to see more and more of this all in the hopes of circumventing the will of true Republican voters. Gov. Romney has collected more votes from Republicans than Sen.McCain so why is McCain winning? There is a corruption of the election process taking place and it is ignoring the will of the people. How can a candidate who does not have the support from the base of the party be its representative??? 

If Sen.McCain heads into the convention as the front-runner or de-facto nominee then I am asking for a revolt and a secession from the party of its Conservate members and nominate Gov. Romney as the Conservative Candidate.

Today is Super Tuesday and I hope everyone has gone out and voted for Mitt Romney!!!

I am devoting all my blogs to supporting Mitt Romney for President because he is REALLY the only TRUE Conservative in this Presidential Race.

Don't be a Lemming and follow the corrupt Republican Elite and their a_s-kissing support for the Media's handpicked choice for OUR Party!!!

Use your heads people!!! I believe my blogs have given ample reason for many of you to at least consider Gov. Romney. Sen. McCain has resorted to lies, lies and more lies. Ironically he is misinforming through his "Straight Talk Express" which should be called "The Double Talk Express".
He is trying to makeover himself as the quintessential Conservative. For Example:

                    Straight Talk Express                                                                    Double Talk Express
"I will make sure the Bush Tax-cuts become permanent"                In reality Sen. McCain voted against them twice

"I will secure our borders"                                                                       100% voting record for open borders

"I do not support Amnesty for Illegal Immigrants"                             Sponsored  McCain-Kennedy  Immigration Bill 
                                                                                                                     which granted amnesty under the Zvisa plan

"I will defend this country against ALL enemies"                                Wants to close Gitmo and is against water-                                                                                                                      boarding and all forms of coercion

Will make us Energy Independent                                                        Supports Global Warming  
                                                                                                                        Against drilling in Anwar

This is only a few examples of what McCain's campaign is doing.

Romney is our best choice and our best HOPE for President in 2008!!!

With Super Tuesday coming tomorrow it seem more like the Sword of Damocles rather than a primary. And in effect it is a day of reckoning for the Grand Old Party- the Republicans. If Sen. McCain somehow wins the needed majority then the GOP - the Conservative Party - will cease to exist.

Make no mistake Gov. Romney is the only choice for Conservatives left in the race. And also he is the MOST QUALIIFIED to become our next President. His detractors with the help of the media has labeled him a flip-flopper while failing to take into account his entire life's work. We live in the day of the sound-byte and words and phrases are altered, taken out of context, misconstrued and misunderstood. We listen to the "straight talking" lying Senator from Arizona who simply repeats and repeats with the notion that if repeated often enough it will become the truth. Mark Levin- has come forward in support of Gov. Romney and has rightly urged his fellow Radio hosts and Conservative pundits to officially endorse Romney. This should have been done immediately after New Hampshire and now maybe too late.

The Republican Party will cease to exist if it nominates Sen. McCain and I cannot say this enough. The only political rival to the Socialist-Democrat Party will be made impotent and with over 16 Republican Legislators opting to not run for re-election we are looking at the Socialist Coup d'etat of the US Government.

Does this sound extreme? Think about it- a Democrat-controlled Congress, and the almost certain election of Billary or Hussein!! McCain will lose to the Socialist-Democrat nominee no matter who it is.
We will become the new USSR- United States Socialist Republic!!!

I am absolutely perplexed and appalled at the political prostitution going on amongst Republican leadership in this country. I thought that being a member of the GOP meant something, and that something being CONSERVATIVISM! The Republican Party was reborn under President Reagan simply for the fact that it picked up and donned the Conservative Mantle: Small Govt, Less Taxes, Strong Military, Strict Interpeters of the Constitution, Pro-Life and Pro-Family. What happened????? Washington is what happened!! We elected people to Congress and they became politicians- greedy, self-seeking jerks who only seek to being re-elected. Real Republicans were voted out of office and a spineless opportunists have taken their place.

Sen. John McCain is the poster child of  these sellouts: Rudy Giuliani, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Gov. Crist.  Where are the real Republicans? Sean Hannity finally made his choice- the only choice left- MItt Romney as I have said all along. Now I am asking real Conservatives like Newt Gingrich to take a stand and cast their support to Mitt Romney.

All Conservative Republicans must step forward now and stop this piece of crap "Straight Talk Express"!!! Do not compromise your principles simply to satisfy the corrupt media in this country which is trying its hardest to anoint Sen. McCain as OUR candidate. The Republican leadership in this country is selling us out and we will need a grassroots movement similar to the one that defeated the "Immigration Bill" sponsored by this lying Senator from Arizona.

Gov. Romney absolutely crushed Sen. McCain in the California debate and again last night on Hannity and Colmes- he made an excellent case for himself deflecting and clarifying many of the lies told by Sen. McCain. He once again showed that he is the ONLY CHOICE for President at this most crucial point in our nation's history.

Contact your friends, relatives, and coworkers and urge them to vote for Mitt Romney on Feb. 5, 2008.
Anyone who knows Mitt Romney and studied his life will see a man of service to his fellow man and to his country. That is who he is!!

Romney is our only choice and our only hope!!
