Great article especially the emphasized paragraph!
Obama's choice in friends deserves to be very carefully scrutinized since it certainly is a look into his character. I wonder how many more of his friends are going to show up during the remaining weeks of this campaign. I have a growing list elsewhere on this forum but there have not been many added in the past few months:
Of course this brings to mind the question how many corrupt friends does it take for the Main Stream Media to recognize a potential flaw in a candidate? (Oh, this is Barack Obama we're talking about...what flaw?!)
The list so far:
Tony Rezko
Rev. Jeremiah Wright
Father Michael Pfleger
Bernardine Dorhn
William Ayers
...
Then, later, after the members of his VP vetting committee were themselves vetted:
...
Jim Johnson announced today that he would resign from the VP Steering Committee (Jim Johnson, Eric Holder, and Caroline Kennedy) ostensibly because of his ties with troubled mortgage lender Countrywide. Obama was defending this guy yesterday and his campaign strategist David Axelrod was defending Johnson just this morning but by noon today he'd resigned. This fine fellow was chosen by Obama to head his committee to find a VP...as Obama was questioned on the "questionable" ties this guy has with Countrywide (not to mention the questionable low and no interest loans for hundreds of thousands of dollars) he stumbled around explaining that "he doesn't vet his vetters".
...
That list is getting longer and longer...
...
add to that:
Jim Johnson
Is Eric Holder next?
(He was a Clintonista AG at the time Clinton made the re-mark-ably (pun intended) suspicious pardon of Marc Rich: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marc_Rich)
