Obama Steals Hope

By Uppity Woman on August 20, 2008 at 2:38 PM in Bamboozling, Barack Obama, Chicago, Hoodwinking, Illinois senate, Tony Rezko

Here’s an awesomely revealing video produced by DemocracyDame,

See what Barack Obama has been able to “achieve” in Chicago. Perhaps we could expect the same from him as a President. Maybe he can give Tony Rezko a pardon and put him in charge of HUD.

      Hillary NOT Releasing Delegates
      From, ALEGRE’S CORNER
      http://alegrescorner.soapblox.net/
      I just got a note from a friend who was on a conference call with Hillary yesterday. I want to get two things out here for you guys to ponder before I head out to work… 1) Harold Ickes said the new magic number is 2111.
      2) Hillary said a few words about unity and winning in Nov. but she said NOTHING about releasing her delegates. Not a word.

      So let’s keep our head down – contact as many delegates as we can in the coming days – and stay strong.

      PLEASE BLOG EVERYWHERE:
      PUMA DO NOT RE ELECT LIST:
      To every superdelegate on this list. We know by what margin your constituents supported Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton over Barack Obama. The people that elected you are also aware that they live in a state in which Hillary Clinton won by big margins and they expect their voices and votes to be counted properly by elected representatives such as yourself. Against the will of these people who elected you, you endorsed Barack Obama.
      Your constituents, and the American public, will hold you accountable for the choice you make in Denver. You have a duty and a responsibility to represent your constituents. Will you give voice to your constituents by voting for Hillary in Denver? Please have courage and do what is right at the Convention in Denver by voting for Senator Hillary Clinton. The people of your district and state are depending on you, as is the rest of the country. Nancy Pelosi tells people in Congress to vote based on three C’s: Constituents, Constitution, and Conscience. When you cast your vote as a superdelegate, remember these three C’s, and especially your constituents, without whom you would not hold the awesome position you do today. Again, and with all due respect I would like to emphasize the fact that PUMA, 4,500,000 voters minimum, will not vote for you. Yet I still hope that here, in the United States of America, elected officials have a conscience. I am convinced that you will do the right thing in Denver. Thank you!

        Right,Obama will call it The Cool War, Axelrod will come up with a nice logo for it, and Jimmy Carter will blame the Jews.

    Great video — I hope you sent it to all delegates and superdelegates — including the men being vetted for vice president, Bahy, Kaine & Biden!

  • Perry Logan

    Obama really did steal our hope.

    Just a few months ago, we all hoped that America would soon have its first woman President or its first African American President.

    Now—thanks to Obama—we will have neither.

  • OBSP

    I live in Chicago and his district is the one of the worse. All the money that was delivered to Dirty Tony and Allison Davis for community redevelopment is an embarssment to our nation. There are so many lawsuits against Allison and his partners. At the beginning of the campaign, there was a major investingation by the Feds of Allison and a big story in the Sun Times, then all of a sudden nothing, it’s been shut down.
    JM should do a film in his district on the boarded up building that Allison owned and all the money Trinty got from the state. They own most of the property along 95th street from the Dan Ryan to Halsted.

    This video should be the answer to anyone who questions how a Hillary supporter can consider voting for John McCain. Hillary is a proven, dedicated public servant. McCain is a proven, dedicated public servant. Obama is nothing but an overly ambition junior-level politican.

  • Jennifer

    I’m questionning whether Stephanie Tubbs Jones actually had an aneurysm. Think about this. Back in January a person stormed Hill’s NH hq and held people hostage. Then in Indiana her campaign hq caught on fire and burned. Last Friday the Arkansas DNC chairman was murdered. Diane Feinstein broke her ankle and won’t go to the convention. Hillary’s delegates and supporters are being replaced and threatened. And now STJ. Obama, the DNC, and George Soros have to be behind this. It is very similar to what happened with Odinga in Kenya. We HAVE to take them down now. Everyone contact Hillary, Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity and tell them what we think and that they need to release any info on Obama now to bring him down. We have to stick together on this.
    People are dying because of them!

  • kinthenorthwest

    Wouldnt it be great if someone could condense the most important aspects of this video and make it into a commercial. Or would we be called racist.

  • Susan B.

    It is very strange that people closely connected to the Clintons are meeting with foul play and/or unusual circumstances. Someone once said, There are no coincidences. I would not put it past Obama and his thug friends as they will stop at nothing to further steal the election. John McCain better watch it, he may be next (Obama usually ‘wins’ by somehow getting rid of his opponents and then can run unopposed). Since he plans on being coronated next week in Denver, possibly he will manage to eliminate an election altogether, and we can all go and kiss his shoulder, like they do to the Saudi prince. P.S. Expect a Rezko pardon if Obama is pres.

    McCain Tells Town Hall Crowd He Questions Obama’s Judgment – Video 8/20/08

  • OBSP

    UPDATE
    —————————————————–
    AP) — A federal judge in Chicago has delayed the sentencing of political fundraiser Tony Rezko for more than a month, moving it closer to the presidential election.
    U.S. District Judge Amy St. Eve set the new schedule Wednesday, granting a request from Rezko’s attorneys for more time to prepare post-trial motions.
    Rezko was convicted in June of squeezing illegal payoffs from firms seeking business with Illinois. He is in jail in Chicago.
    Sentencing is now set for Oct. 28, one week before the election. Rezko raised money for Senator Barack Obama’s campaigns in Illinois, money Obama since has donated to charity. Obama wasn’t implicated, charged or called to testify in the case.
    The original sentencing was set for Sept. 3.

    • Arabella Trefoil

      Nothing to see here. Move on.

    • simanov

      I heard Obama will appear as a character witnesses before the sentencing.

    >>>>“That’s why I promise you this: that if you will vote for me, if you give me that opportunity, if you give me that chance, that I will fight for you every single day. I will wake up in that White House thinking about the people of Martinsville and the people of Henry County and how I can make your life better,” he said, echoing a line Clinton often used at the end of her speeches.

    At several events in recent days in Nevada, New Mexico and North Carolina, Obama has talked about average families incomes that rose $6,000 during the Bill Clinton years and have fallen $1,000 during the Bush years — statistics that Clinton used near the top of nearly every speech. This is not the first time the Illinois senator has hailed the last two-term Democratic president, but he seems to be using this sort of language more lately.
    http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2008/08/20/1278602.aspx

    We can count on First Read for a positive Obama spin!
    Not the first time?!? It’s one of the FEW times Obama has acknowledged the accomplishments of the “first Black president.”

    NObama!!

  • simanov

    Obama the clown.

    (MARTINSVILLE, Va.) Would you vote for your cousin if he or she ran for president? Barack Obama hopes so.

    Today, he told a small group of supporters in Virginia that he may be related to them.

    While describing his family’s background, he said, “You trace back my family on my mother’s side: Scots Irish. There are a whole bunch of those folks here in Virginia,” he said. “All right. So ya’ll didn’t know, but we may be cousins.”

    Good video, but Grove Parc Plaza was managed by Habitat Co. until this past winter. Rezko is always mentioned in connection to the scandalous situation with low income housing in Chicago, but Valerie Jarrett is rarely mentioned.

    Valerie Jarrett, a senior adviser to Obama’s presidential campaign and a member of his finance committee. Jarrett is the chief executive of Habitat Co., which managed Grove Parc Plaza from 2001 until this winter and co-managed an even larger subsidized complex in Chicago that was seized by the federal government in 2006, after city inspectors found widespread problems.

    I sure am glad that my wife and me are not alone in our thoughts about this “Slime Ball”.If “SLOWBAMA’wins this election, our country is going to be in one hell of a mess. Think about his connections with the “dingo” in Africa, if you think Rezko is bad. Great Video, I wish everybody could see it, it might wake them up.
