I find that Charles Krauthammer doesn’t understand enough. I believe that Obama shares the same views of these US haters. Why else would these people want him as President if he didn’t share their views? Think about it!. It doesn’t make sense. Why would Ayers push Obama’s campaing if Obama had different views than his? NO… Obama shares the same views as those hateful enemies of your country. It is clear as cristal to me.
Ya know, Fit. I don’t really care who Wm F. Buckley’s offspring votes for. And after reading his reasons for Obama over McCain, his opinion matters even less than it *didn’t* before. ala
This campaign has changed John McCain. It has made him inauthentic. A once-first class temperament has become irascible and snarly; his positions change, and lack coherence; he makes unrealistic promises, such as balancing the federal budget “by the end of my first term.” Who, really, believes that? Then there was the self-dramatizing and feckless suspension of his campaign over the financial crisis. His ninth-inning attack ads are mean-spirited and pointless. And finally, not to belabor it, there was the Palin nomination. What on earth can he have been thinking?
My thoughts? McCains *always* been known as a snarly, hot-tempered guy. So what’s changed? His positions have been morphing with the events, as they should. If balancing a fed budget (especially by freezes and a heavy hand on vetoes) is “lacking coherence”, then I haven’t got a clue what to say to young Buckley.
I don’t see the suspension of the campaign to be back in the beltway for that abomination bailout as “feckless”. What I do consider “feckless” is that McCain helped convince many to vote for it. His 9th inning attacks aren’t “mean-spirted”. They are viable issues that the media has refused to address… the Obama-Ayers-CAC-Woods-ACORN-education reform for “social justice” link is a serious issue for a POTUS. Difference of opinion.
Young Buckley doesn’t like Palin. I do. Difference of opinion. I believe mine is more grounded in solid issues and research on Palin and on the Obama-Ayers…etal than Buckley’s. That’s just the way it goes.
And why does he like Obama?
As for Senator Obama: He has exhibited throughout a “first-class temperament,” pace Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr.’s famous comment about FDR. As for his intellect, well, he’s a Harvard man, though that’s sure as heck no guarantee of anything, these days. Vietnam was brought to you by Harvard and (one or two) Yale men. As for our current adventure in Mesopotamia, consider this lustrous alumni roster. Bush 43: Yale. Rumsfeld: Princeton. Paul Bremer: Yale and Harvard. What do they all have in common? Andover! The best and the brightest
I’ve read Obama’s books, and they are first-rate. He is that rara avis, the politician who writes his own books. Imagine. He is also a lefty. I am not. I am a small-government conservative who clings tenaciously and old-fashionedly to the idea that one ought to have balanced budgets. On abortion, gay marriage, et al, I’m libertarian. I believe with my sage and epigrammatic friend P.J. O’Rourke that a government big enough to give you everything you want is also big enough to take it all away.
If young Buckley agree’s with Obama on abortion and gay marriage, then that’s the only viable reason I’ve seen him state here. In that case, he was never a McCain fan as a voter… perhaps as a friend and on some issues, but not those.
But what’s this about Obama’s “first-rate” books? Interesting that Buckley brought that up… Because it was just yesterday that I read an American Thinker article by Jack Cashill talking about the timeline of Dreams of My Father… and it’s QSUM analysis that seems to lend serious credibility (among other “coincidences” Cashill ticked off) that Obama not only had a ghost writer, but that ghost writer is likely to be William Ayers.
Naturally, this isn’t “smoking gun” stuff, but it makes for an interesting read, Fit. You should check it out. Things like he magically overcame his writers block after a long dry spell, and a failed book deal… only to get a second one and advance, and magically churn out “first rate” stuff. uh huh….
If he raises taxes and throws up tariff walls and opens the coffers of the DNC to bribe-money from the special interest groups against whom he has (somewhat disingenuously) railed during the campaign trail, then he will almost certainly reap a whirlwind that will make Katrina look like a balmy summer zephyr.
This is about the most honest thing that young Buckley says. Odd thing is, he is anticipating the backlash that happens if Obama fulfills his very campaign promises. Well that’s a heckuva bet with a vote…. betting that he’ll get into office and not do what he promised… like mutilate relations with the CAFTA/NAFTA trade treaties, and raise taxes. With an economic plan that adds up to trillions, how can he *not* raise taxes??
Instead, he choses to ignore Obama’s promises that he predicts will be dastardly, and instead believe Obama has “the potential to be a good, perhaps even great leader.
Buckley evidently did not inherit his Dad’s clarity of thought and analysis of character.
During a stop in Grand Rapids on Thursday, Lincoln Chafee, a former Republican U.S. senator from Rhode Island, said he’s voting for Obama and urging others to do likewise.
McCain campaigned for Chafee’s unsuccessful re-election bid in 2006, but Chafee said he is concerned McCain has swung to the right, a divisive strategy that could make it difficult for him to govern.
“That’s not my kind of Republicanism,” said Chafee, who now calls himself an independent. “I saw what Bush and Cheney did. They came in with a (budget) surplus and a stable world, and look what’s happened now. In eight short years they’ve taken one peaceful and prosperous world, and they’ve torn it into tatters.”
Chafee….*snicker*
As far as former Republican Gov. William Milliken (another RINO), what does anything he has to say have anything to do with McCain’s character?

I have nothing against Baldwin, he is great, but he has ZERO chance to win. But, I do have something against you and that is: your complete lack of judgment and solidarity.
Good! Please do Richard. You are not a stupid leftist, you share our values, so lets get together to defeat Obama. I am sure you do not want a Democrat POTUS and Democrat Congress and Senate to run your country. Every McCain’s votes is needed to defeat that horrible Obama. Even though I do not get to vote, I care because you are my neigbour, allie, friend and greatest commercial partner.

To some, character doesn’t matter. Since Monday, the Obama/Ayers story has changed seven times, they are saying six below, but they list seven, might be a typo. Note, this list doesn’t include the lies Obama and camp put out through the primary days.
This is from a No Quarter thread, they are keeping track and taking names they also provide details, dates, places, times, for the seven separate stories.
“THE OBAMA CAMPAIGN’S EVER-DEVELOPING AYERS STORY
Since Monday, The Obama Campaign Has Had Six (6) Distinct Stories About Barack Obama’s Relationship With Bill Ayers:
· STORY #1: David Axelrod And Robert Gibbs Said For The First Time That Barack Obama Did Not Know About Bill Ayers’ Past When Ayers Held A Coffee For Obama In 1995
· STORY #2: Obama Senior Adviser Robert Gibbs Said He Didn’t Know The “Details” Of Ayers’ Relationship
· STORY #3: Obama Spokesman Bill Burton Said That Barack Obama Did Not Launch His Political Career At Ayers’ House And Didn’t Write A Blurb For An Ayers’ Book.
· STORY #4: David Axelrod Confirmed That Barack Obama Knew About Ayers’ Past After Their Initial Meetings; Contradicted Earlier Story And Said “No One Is Suggesting That He Never Knew”
· STORY #5: Obama Senior Adviser Anita Dunn Says When Barack Obama Went To Ayers’ House, He Was Merely Attending A Meeting Of State Senator Alice Palmer’s Supporters – A Statement Contradicted By Palmer
· STORY #6: Obama Senior Adviser Robert Gibbs Says After Barack Obama Knew About Ayers’ Past He Continued To Associated With Bill Ayers
· STORY #7: On ABC’s “World News Tonight,” Barack Obama Said He Only Ever Talked With Bill Ayers About School Reform Issues”
Not included in this list is, ta da, I thought he was rehabilitated.
A commentor also listed the dateline of the 24 bombings that Ayres and the Weather Underground did. Yet, as with the Rev. case, he’s knows nothing. Will fetch the list if anyone is interested.

NO… Obama shares the same views as those hateful enemies of your country. It is clear as cristal to me.
Ah, yes.
Mr. Krauthammer cuts right to the quick doesn’t he?
He summed up the entire Liberal/Left/Democrat/Socialist/Marxist/Obama movement in four simple words.
It’s a beautiful thing.
Ya know, Fit. I don’t really care who Wm F. Buckley’s offspring votes for. And after reading his reasons for Obama over McCain, his opinion matters even less than it *didn’t* before. ala

And why does he like Obama?
“first class temperment”…. Harvard over Yale… these are viable reasons? He has no idea what Obama is like off the campaign trail. But if you read CBS Dean Reynolds’ article about how the McCain campaign is run compared to Obama’s, then you have to wonder just who really has their sheeeeeet together.
If young Buckley agree’s with Obama on abortion and gay marriage, then that’s the only viable reason I’ve seen him state here. In that case, he was never a McCain fan as a voter… perhaps as a friend and on some issues, but not those.
