Flock together, as the saying goes. And so who does Obama count in his flock?
How about a terrorist who recently stated he felt he didn't "do enough," a preacher who stated "God D@mn America!", and a political fundraiser convicted of fraud.
Now, why are all of these associations important? Why should we concern ourselves with the types of people Obama surrounds himself with? There are several reasons these associations are important.
1) These are the people who have been affecting his thinking and helping direct his budding political career. Typically, when people have tough decisions to make, they turn to their friends and chosen advisers to find out what they should do. What type of advice do you think this flock would give?
2) He has constantly tried to distance himself from these people. Instead of being truly honest and stating, "Yes, Bill Ayers helped start my political career," he's simply using political double speak to tell the media and the voting public what they want to hear to make themselves comfortable.
3) Finally, because he has no real political experience, Barack Obama sought to run a campaign that emphasized his superior judgment. However, how discerning can the man be when these chosen advisers and companions top his list?
Please America, if we need a change, a centrist republican like McCain is a much better choice than a FAR LEFT democrat.
