Hannity's America Program

There are a great number of Democrat Superdelegates who are local and state politicians themselves. Even if they thought Hillary had a better chance of winning, they would still give the nomination to Obama - which they did.

These Superdelegates that are facing election or reelections of their own have counted on the African-American voters in their precincts, districts, and states.

I was reading, which makes a lot of sense, that whether the Democrats like it or not, who have courted the African-American voters since LBJ's Great Society are suddenly finding themselves held hostage by these very African-Americans constituents, demanding Obama be given the chance to win the top prize.

I found this, I think the results are rather interesting.

Joint Center for Political and Economic Studies

It is a study concerning the black vote from 2000 and 2004 elections.


The voter turn out rose 4 million from 2000 from 10 million to 14 million in 2004. It accounted for 22% of Kerry's total votes.

It saddens me that during the worst economic crisis in 75 years, the Presidential Campaign is being dominated by trivialities. Obama is responding to McCain's attack with a massive plan to document McCain's innvolvemen in the S&L scandal (He was one of the so called "Keating 5) in a documentary. Both of the candidates seem to be unconcerned about the gravity of problems that face our nation.

McCain was found to be not guilty. Obama is running the ad to try and divert attention, but that will not work.

Obama needs to be investigated further as to his background activities/associations. He also has the Ethics Committee on him for fake names on foreign campaign contributions. $465 million dollars, thus far. We deserve to know.

We already know about McCain and the outcome of Keating 5. “The story was complicated, but the press found a tag line that simplified it. McCain and four other senators with ties to Keating were dubbed ‘the Keating Five.’ The label stuck, imputing to all the same degree of guilt even though it soon became evident that at least two, McCain and former astronaut John Glenn of Ohio, were far less culpable, if they were culpable at all.”

Obama is who we DON'T know.

Oh well, I suppose associating with and going to bat for a crook who was responsible for the loss of the life savings of 21,000 mostly elderly investors is just fine.

NY TIMES January 5, 1991

The sharpest questioning today was from Mr. Heflin, who interrogated Mr. McCain about his late payments to the American Continental Corporation, Mr. Keating's Arizona holding company, for flights he and his family took on the company's corporate aircraft from 1983 to 1986.

Mr. McCain, who of the five Senators was the closest socially to Mr. Keating, would travel with the businessman to his vacation home in the Bahamas, where they swam, snorkeled and went fishing. But he did not repay more than $13,000 to American Continental until 1989, when he said the company notified him that the bill was due.

McCain was “in the middle of” the Keating Five case in the sense that he was “exonerated."

The Senate Ethics Committee lawyer, Robert Bennett (a Democrat) who investigated McCain, was a guest on “Hannity and Colmes” in February, 2008.

He stated:

“First, I should tell your listeners I’m a registered Democrat, so I’m not on (McCain’s) side of a lot of issues. But I investigated John McCain for a year and a half, at least, when I was special counsel to the Senate Ethics Committee in the Keating Five. ... And if there is one thing I am absolutely confident of, it is John McCain is an honest man. I recommended to the Senate Ethics Committee that he be cut out of the case, that there was no evidence against him.”

End of story.....

Do you feel the same way about Obama's well documented associations with unrepentant terrorist William Ayers?

[jdm05]

Obama is a modern day FALSE PROPHET. He has surounded himself with nothing but terrorists!!! Hannity's America was AWESOME!!! There are too many things in Obama's life that are not coincidences. Why did he surround himself with terrorists? He lives in the same neighborhood as William Ayers, Louis Farrakhan, and Tony Resko. Birds of a feather flock together. Why has not Obama's college thesis been made public? Or what about his college years? Why is he hiding his birth certificate? Probably because he was given a different name at birth that was not muslim. So many questions that Obama will not answer. We seriously need to pray and fast that this evil man named Barack Hussein Obama, will not be elected as president. Hollywood can have him, we want a true maverick in office.
