Barack Obama: In His Own Words: Sep 21st (Glenn)
Transcipt, Charts and Video
Here are a couple other blog posts on the Soros-Obama Connection:

.::Glenn::. Is it even feasible to have this number of marxist, radicals, anti-capitalist etc near him?.... Maybe the President is blind to character? Maybe the President is part of the problem? Maybe the President is in danger because no one is vetting these people? Is the FBI even showing up for work? That's for you to decide. But You won't be able to decided if the people the President grants interviews too only ask him insipid shallow questions over and over and over again...
Obama's favorite line when deflecting questions is...Bush look at that guy.
Bush had czars too!...Yeah some people were yelling back then too and I have the archives to prove how much I was yelling at that guy. But Bush's czars didn't have the radical ideology many of these people do...
He will say that Bush started us down the path down socialism...and he would be right by that.
Bush started the crazy spending...he'd be right again....
Bush started the bailouts...yes he did, hated him for it.
My question to President Obama would be um, I'm sorry, is this just Bush's third term? Are you continuing all of his policies?
....Anyone out there who voted for Obama should be asking themselves, jeeze did I misunderstand that President because I thought he believed in change? Or was it that he misunderstood me?
We should have seen this coming before his first day in office when he said this, "We are 5 days away from fundamentally transforming the United States of America"-Barack Obama
.::Paraphrasing Glenn::. Obama has been compared to FDR, Kennedy, Lincoln, is that because people are afraid to just look at him? Why is no one making him talk about his mentor- Frank Marshal Davis- a radical communist? Do you still care lessons from your mentor with you? Is it reasonable to ask what part of Davis he carries around with him? No one is looking at his college years. Look at what he says about his associations in college.
"To avoid being mistaken for a sellout, I chose my friends carefully. The more politically active black students. The foreign students. The Chicanos. The Marxist professors and structural feminist and punk-rock performance poets." - Barack Obama, Dreams From My Father: A Story of Race and Inheritance
.::Glenn::. "I hate to keep bring up the past but we have to ask. He chose his friends carefully back then, the question is does he choose his advisors closely now."
Video: Van Jones talking about Redistributing Wealth
.::Glenn::. That sounds radical to most Americans but listen to what our own President says
"The Supreme Court never ventured into the issues of redistribution of wealth...The tragedies of the civil rights movement was , um, because the civil rights movement became so court focused I think there was a tendency to lose track of the political and community organizing and activities on the ground that are able to put together the actual coalition of powers though which you bring about redistributive change." - Obama on Chicago Public Radio, 2001
.::Paraphrasing Glenn::. Are we listeneing American?? Because he is telling us that we have dismissed the community organizers...ACORN, Tides, SEIU, Apollo etc... that can put together the coalition that can bring about change...

"How about the funding for ACORN?"
"Frankly its not something that I've followed closely, I didn't even know ACORN was getting a lot of federal funding."-Barack Obama
"Frankly its not something that I've followed closely, I didn't even know ACORN was getting a lot of federal funding."-Barack Obama
.:: Glenn::. Tonight I've decided to ask the President some questions and use the answers that hes already given because he is not giving anything new...I hear people say, he ran as a centrist and now he is not governing that way...I maintain that Obama told us absolutely everything that he was going to do and he still is, every step of the way. People just didn't listen, they only heard what they wanted to hear.
"I have not said that I was a single payer supporter because frankly, we historically, have had an employer-based system in this country with private insurers and for us to transition to a single payer system, I believe would be too disruptive."- Barack Obama
"I have not said that I was a single payer supporter because frankly, we historically, have had an employer-based system in this country with private insurers and for us to transition to a single payer system, I believe would be too disruptive."- Barack Obama
.::Me::. So he is not for a single payer system not because its
fundamentally bad, but because its too "disruptive"?
fundamentally bad, but because its too "disruptive"?
.::Glenn::. Well what I happen to know is that a few years ago Obama said this...
"I happen to be a proponent of a single-payer, universal health care plan...A single payer health care plan--universal health care plan. That's what I'd like to see." - Barack Obama to the AFL-CIO in 2003

Barack Obama on ACORN
"How about the funding for ACORN?" George Stephanopoulos
"Frankly its not something that I've followed closely, I didn't even know ACORN was getting a lot of federal funding."-Barack Obama
"Well the Senate and the House have voted to cut it off." George Stephanopoulos
"Ya know, what I know is what I saw in that video was certainty inappropriate and deserves to be.."-Barack Obama
"So your not committing to cutting off federal funding?" George Stephanopoulos
"George this is not the biggest issue facing the country, its not something I'm paying a lot of attention too." -Barack Obama

"Before I even get inaugurated, were going to be calling all of you in to help us shape the agenda. Were going to be having meetings all across the country with community organizations [ACORN] so that you have input into the agenda for the next presidency of the United States of America"- Barack Obama
.::paraphrasing Glenn::. Obama also closely tied to SEIU, which ACORN founder Wade Rafky is also closely tied too...
"I've spent my entire adult life working with SEIU. I'm not a newcomer to this. I didn't just suddenly discover SEIU..."-Barack Obama
.::Glenn::. Then there is Ameri-Cor, or is it Ameri-Cor. I'm not really sure what the president is describing here.
"We cannot continue to rely only on our military in order to achieve the nation security objectives that we've set. We've got to have a civilian national security force thats just as powerful, just as strong, just as well funded."-Barack Obama
.::Glenn::. Really, why do we need that?
"Ive been fighting alongside ACORN on issues you care about my entire career. Even before I was an elected official, when I ran project vote voter registration drive in Illinois, when I ran project vote voter registration drive in Illinois, ACORN was smack dab in the middle of it, and we appreciated your work." -Sam Graham-Felsen, Ran Obama's Campaign Blog

.::Glenn::. Just past week he has raised the possibility of amnesty and citizenship for the 20 million people who are already here illegally.
"If someone is here illegally they won't be covered under this plan. That's a commitment I've made. But I also want to make this clear. Even though I don't believe we can extend coverage to those that are here illegally, I don't believe that we can simply ignore the fact that our immigration system is broken.......If anything this debate underscores necessity for passing comprehensive immigration reform and resolving the issue of 12 million undocumented people living and working in this country once and for all." - Barack Obama
.::Glenn::. He didnt know they were getting federal funding?
.::Fund::. It's curious because ACORN has gotten federal funding throughout his existence and he has a long hisotry of working with ACORN. He was a trainer for them in Chicago and a lawyer for them. I suspect at some point ACORN paid him, I suspect some of that was federal funds.
.::Fund::. Obamas campaign spend over $800,000 with an ACORN affiliate to get out the vote. Voter registration...and the money was categorized and reported to Federal Election Commission as staging and lighting....Then they corrected themselves when they got caught by a Pittsburg paper. So the Obama campaign was not particularaly eager to have people know that they were hiring a ACORN affiliate to help with voter registration.
.::Fund::. Its strange because throughout his career he has been proud of being affiliated with ACORN....He knew everything about and now he knows nothings about ACORN makes me think something is there...All I know is that he is retrieting from ACORN faster than a speeding bullet.
.::Fund::. He just refered to the conduct as inappropriate, I think almost anyone would have used a stronger word.

House Votes to Defund ACORNWASHINGTON — The House has voted to deny all federal funding for ACORN, the community organizing group that has been caught up in several scandals.
The House action came several days after the Senate took a similar vote to block the Housing and Urban Development Department from giving grants to ACORN.
Republicans, long critics of the liberal-leaning group that advocates for the poor, led the effort to cut off all federal funds.
California Republican Darrell Issa, who sponsored the measure in the House, says the "scandal surrounding the criminal activities of ACORN have called into question their role in all aspects of government."
The vote, on a provision attached to a student aid bill, was 345-75. All 75 no votes were Democrats.

Fringe News, aka CNN/MSNBC on ACORN Scandals
CNN:
Watch her try to talk her way out of the video! Hilarious talking points and ridiculous avoidance of questions. CNN interview is actually putting it to her a bit.
"How much money do you receive on average per year from the federal government?"
"On average probably around $2 million dollars across the board" -Bertha Lewis, CEO
Lets see now, according to reports, ACORN has received (more than) $53 million dollars since 1994. That's $53 million in 16 years...hmm lets do that math...cal-cu-la-ting...that's approx 3.4 million dollars a year. Wow, Lewis, that's a little more than you calculated...Are you trying to downplay something?
MSNBC:
They attempt to address the "seemingly daming" videos
Nice! Right off the bat let's put a little doubt on the validity of these videos...clever clever.
"Acorn has suspended or fired all workers involved except the San Bernandino woman who said she was playing along...but conservatives are having a field day"
Well those damn conservatives! How dare they demand more answers. We've already brushed all the crazies off, what else to they want, actually accountabilty??
"Political Analyst say this is largely driven by conservatives longstanding distaste for ACORN."
Who are these political analyst? The ivy league interns you have sitting in the back room clicking away on Google? I remember college, we analyzed plenty of things.
(BEST FOR LAST ha!)
"Welcome back, the GOP is ramping up their campaign against the anti-poverty group ACORN...."
Awwww, who wants to go against some organization that is fighting poverty! Those terrible Republicans! Why won't they leave these poor people alone! I mean they fired the crazy people, well except for the San Bernandino lady who was playing along with the hidden cameras, she's cool.
After saying that the census cut ties and Senate cut housing funds, he goes on to say "but that is not enough for Republicans, they don't want the group to get any kind of federal funding.
Gasp!! You mean, NO federal funding for this amazing, totally legitimate, "anti-poverty" squeeky clean group of good Samaritans! NEVER! Bad GOP!
" I know whats going on here, the conservatives just don't want ACORN to be a part of anything. Where was their outrage when Halliburton was overcharging the government and electrocuting American soldiers?"
Well, we're here now and of course we wouldn't want ACORN to be a part of anything. What is this guy smoking? There are now videos from several different offices that promote child prostitution, illegal sex trade, tax evasion, to name a few, do you want your taxes going to fund them?
"Now thats no excuse for ACORN problems, I'm not here to defend them, they need to fix thier problems fast, but REPUBLICANS are trying to broad brush this and its not that simple."
Actually it is that simple. ACORN needs to be investigated by an outside sources who is willing to get deep into the dirt of the dirt of the dirt of ACORN. Did I mention there would be a lot of dirt?
{to CEO}"Do you run an honest organization? Because the Conservatives out there are saying that everything about ACORN is dishonest?"
"Well first off, just because you repeat a lie, over and over again, doesn't make it true."
Did that count for Mickey Mouse's registration to vote? Here is something truthful for you CEO-boss-lady, just because you deny something over and over again doesn't make it go away.
"We've been running this organizing since 40 years."
Hehe, am I allowed to laugh at your poor grammar skills or is that racist?
{to CEO}"What do you say about the video tapes?"
Well first of all, for Fox and the Right Wing to have to stoop to a made up scenario is one thing, but! as you know and as I've said over and over again, those people were reprehensible...blah blah."
Gasp! How dare anyone try and uncover the truth behind a liberal organization. Damn those new mediums that show these completely fabricated, totally staged videos...oh and we fired those reprehensible people that they doctored.
"Let me say one thing, not one shred of paper kicked in because our quality control does kick in."
So you see, we aren't responsible for anything that is undocumented. We're totally guiltless and ignorant about what our employees are telling the public.
{to CEO} "...this is why I'm doing this story because a U.S. Senator has gone on record saying your whole organization is corrupt."
"Listen, this goes, waaay back, all the way back to the Bush Administration, a couple weeks ago we saw Karl Roves emails specifically targeting us and then firing U.S. attorney's because they wouldn't combat and do a political conviction against us."
Let me show you how these people made up these lies. Watch its easy! Not working? Ok well, its the Bush administrations fault that we were flagged earlier, we thought we were going to get away with it now because we have a brother in the House but,...oh wait, was that racist??
"We compete for those dollars, we're effective, and were just the target of this right wing republican attempt..."
Compete by seeing who can come up with the most creative fake name for voter registrations? No no, must be who can come up with the most names for the fake voter registrations.
Oh and can I mention that there were only 7 Democrats and 0 Republicans that voted to have you keep your money. But it's all the Republican's doing. Like we could pass anything w/o Dem support in this off balance government.

Obama Called to Action by GOP
House GOP Urges President Obama to Defund and Break Federal Ties to ACRON
posed by GOP Leader Press Office on Sept 15th, 2009
Today House Republicans, led by Republican Leader John Boehner (R-OH), are sending the following letter to President Obama asking him to use his authority to end all funding to and break all government ties with ACORN:
Dear Mr. President:
We write to you today in the wake of new reports of potentially criminal activity involving associates of the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now (ACORN) to respectfully request that you use your authority to publicly disclose and terminate all federal funding to ACORN and its affiliates. It is evident that ACORN is incapable of using federal funds in a manner that is consistent with the law. Immediate action is necessary to ensure that no additional tax dollars are directed to ACORN. Simply put, ACORN should not receive another penny of American taxpayers’ money.
Congressional pressure, coupled with the impact of recent media reports, prompted the U.S. Census Bureau on September 11 to end its partnership with ACORN. We support this decision by the Census Bureau, and believe it is vital that all other federal agencies with ties to ACORN follow the Census Bureau’s example by severing all ties to ACORN and its affiliates, whether those ties consist of partnerships or the awarding of federal funds, including federal funds distributed through state and local governments from federal block grants.
This is a matter of common sense and respect for taxpayer dollars. Last year, millions of Americans were outraged to learn their tax dollars were being used to subsidize an organization linked to multiple instances of voter registration fraud and other illicit activity. An analysis of federal data by the Office of the Republican Leader determined that ACORN has received more than $53 million in direct funding from the federal government since 1994, and has likely received substantially more indirectly through states and localities that receive federal block grants.
The Census Bureau has made the commendable decision to sever ties with ACORN, and it is now critical that all remaining federal entities with ties to ACORN do the same. We ask that you use your authority to ensure that all federal funding of ACORN is publicly disclosed and terminated immediately. To facilitate this effort, the Republican staff of the Oversight Committee has compiled a complete list of the corporations that form the ACORN Council, and we would be pleased to share it with you and members of your administration.
We thank you for your attention to this request.

Senate Votes to Revoke Federal Funds from ACORN!
Tonight the Senate voted to block the Housing and Urban Development Department from giving grants to ACORN. With a vote of 83-7 they have been denied housing and community grants.
There have been 3 videos released by two young investigative conservatives, James O'Keefe and Hannah Giles, exposing the corrupution in ACORN offices in Baltimore, Brooklyn and Washington, D.C. After the second video ACORN was dropped bythe Census' and now after the third, it has bee denied HUD grants for programs.
ACORN is also being proscuted in several cities, including my hometown of Miami, of voter fraud.
State Attorney, Jessamy, has Questionable Motives
Undeniably ACORN and Obama have a relationship that is woven closely together. So if you support Obama you would want to keep anything that makes him look bad under wraps right?
Well, the State Attorney in Baltimore, Patricia Jessamy, who is considering prosecuting the ACORN filmmakers, was on the Obama Campaigns Steering Committee during the election. She contributed $1,000 to his campaign. Do you think she has alternative motives?
Here is the statement released by the State Attorney's Office:
Patricia Jessamy needs to recuse herself because of her ties to Obama and Obama's ties to ACORN!

Here is the statement released by the State Attorney's Office:
September 11, 2009 – We have received inquiries from citizens and the media asking whether the Baltimore City State’s Attorneys Office would initiate a criminal investigation for acts allegedly committed at ACORN offices located in Baltimore. The only information received in reference to this alleged criminal behavior was a YouTube video. Upon review by this office, the video appears to be incomplete. In addition, the audio portion could possibly have been obtained in violation of Maryland Law, Annotated Code of Maryland Courts and Judicial Proceedings Article §10-402, which requires two party consent. If it is determined that the audio portion now being heard on YouTube was illegally obtained, it is also illegal under Maryland Law to willfully use or willfully disclose the content of said audio. The penalty for the unlawful interception, disclosure or use of it is a felony punishable up to 5 years.
Patricia Jessamy needs to recuse herself because of her ties to Obama and Obama's ties to ACORN!

Another victory for the conservative cause!
This is of course another small victory for the conservatives who've worked tirelessly to stop corruption in government and aligned organizations. Between Van Jones, these 2 ACORN videos and the march on washington tomorrow I'm feeling really good about our cause right now. Maybe its the DC high or maybe its that the tides have begun to change a bit. Whatever it is, I really want to bottle up this hope I'm feeling so I can take a bit and remind myself every once in a while.
Here is the 2nd pimp and hooker video:
While resting up for tomorrow I was, of course, watching a little Fox News when they announced that the Census Bureau had severed ties with ACORN because of the second pimp and hooker video that came out today from Big Government.com. It is really nice to see some part of our government pulling away and recognizing the corruption of the organizations with which they are aligned.
Now if only we could move that mentality toward the White House.
Once again, they play the race card: Maryland ACORN Official: FoxNews Racism Behind ACORN Investigation

Ms. Maude Hurd
President ACORN
739 8th St SE
Washington, DC 20003Dear Ms. Hurd:
The goal of the U.S. Census Bureau's partnership program is to combine the stregths of state, local, and tribal governments, community-based organizations, faith-based organizations, schools, media, businesses and others to ensure an accurate 2010 Census. While not (sic) Census bureau employees, partners are advocates for census cooperation and participation. They serve a trusted voices within their communities and are critical to our strategy to count everyone once, only once, and in the right place.
The Census Bureau has established criteria for partnerships, which are listed on our Web site at , and reserves the right to decline partnership or to terminate an existing partnership agreement with any group that 1) may create a negative connotation for the Census Bureau; 2) could distract from the Census Bureau's mission; or, 3) may make people fearful of participating in the census.
To that end, and in keeping with the standards we shared with your organization and others who
volunteered to partner with the Census Bureau to help promote the 2010 Census, we are today terminating our Partnership Agreement with ACORN.
Over the last several months, through ongoing communication with our regional offices, it is
clear that ACORN's affiliation with the 2010 Census promotion has caused sufficient concern in the general public, has indeed become a distraction from our mission, and may even become a discouragement to public cooperation, negatively impacting 2010 Census efforts. While not decisive factors in this decision, recent events concerning several local offices of ACORN have added to the worsening negative perceptions of ACORN and its affiliation with our
partnership efforts.We do not come to this decision lightly. It was our original assessment that your organization could be helpful in encouraging cooperation with the 2010 Census among individuals who are historically hard to count, including renters, low-income residents, the linguistically isolated, and others. As of today, we have close to 80,000 partnership agreements with national and local groups - many of whom are trusted voices and serve these same populations - and we will be relying upon those groups to continue our outreach in the communities you serve. The full participation of those populations remains of utmost importance to us.
Unfortunately, we no longer have confidence that our national partnership agreement is being effectively managed through your many local offices. For the reasons stated, we therefore have
decided to terminate the partnership.
Respectfully,
Robert M. Groves
Director

ACORN gets caught Pimping it Out!
Check out this headline:
ACORN Officials Videotaped Telling 'Pimp,' 'Prostitute' How to Lie to IRS
ACORN Officials Videotaped Telling 'Pimp,' 'Prostitute' How to Lie to IRS
Officials with the controversial community organizing group ACORN were secretly videotaped offering to assist two individuals posing as a pimp and a prostitute, encouraging them to lie to the Internal Revenue Service and providing guidance on how to claim underage girls from South America as dependents.
This was discovered by BigGovernment.com, a political blog launched by Andrew Breitbart.
Two people posed as a pimp and prostitute and went to ACORN to find afforable housing. ACORN tells them to write 10% of the money she actually makes on her tax returns and that they will prepare her taxes for a discounted rate to help.
ACORN suggested that she list her occupation as "performing artist" even after the pimp reportedly said "It's not dancing, trust me".
When he later said that they were planning to bring young girls from another country to work as prostitutes the ACORN staff tells them that's illegal but then tells them to claim them as dependents but not to list mroe than 3 because then they are flagged.
They are later offered a membership to ACORN.
When the Pimp asks what would happen to ACORN if they are discovered they said,"First of all, it's not gonna damage us because we not gonna know. And with your girls, you tell them, 'Be careful.' Train them to keep their mouth shut."

Reasonable Questions for Unreasonable Times
- Video about who is writing these bills
- Andy Stern, President of SEIU, "I think I can finally prove Reagan and Bush wrong, Wealth does not trickle down, it trickles up."
- Rep. Maxine Water, May 2008, " And guess what this liberal would be all about? This liberal would be all about socializing -uh, (long uncomfortable pause)...would be about basically taking over, and the government running all of your companies."
- Howard Dean on CNBC, " I think we've had quite enough capitalism in the last eight year, I think we need some regulation now."
- Obama, "So today my administration is proposing a sweeping overhaul of the financial regulatory system. A transformation on a scale not seen since after the Great Depression."
- Perhaps it was William Ayers who said it best while at an even in 2006, "To evaporate the point, down with capitalism."
- President Obama's Science Czar: John Holdren; " The need for de-development presents our economist with a major challenge. They must design a stable, low-consumption economy in which there is a much more equitable distribution of wealth than the present one. Redistribution of wealth both within and among nations is absolutely essential, is a decent life is to be provided for every human being."
- Cass Sunstein, Regulatory Czar, "Without taxes there would be no liberty. Without taxes there would be no prosperity. Without taxes, few of us would have any assets worth defending. (It is) a dim fiction that some people enjoy an exercise their right without placing any burden whatsoever on the public fiscal...there is no liberty without dependency. That is why we should celebrate tax day."

- Whats the rush with these bills? Why can't we vet people and policies?
- What does the President really believe in?
- Malkin: Reclaiming Revolution, a book by STORM. Self published history of this group standing to gether to organize a revolution movement, retrospective of what they did and when they disbanded. Parrallels betweent he way this netwrork and ACORN and SEIU operates. Van Jones was a founding members of STORM.
- Malkin: You could only join by invitation only, they did better vetting than the Obama admin. What happened was that many members started their own group because they didn't get along. We don't know who the shadowy founders were but we do know the funders are of some of those other groups.
- STORM on 9/11, Reclaiming Revolution, pg 47, "The Vigil was to be an expression of solidarity with Arab- and Muslim Americans and of morning for the dead in New York and Washington DC as well as the victims of the US imperialism about the world. The vigil, held in Oakland's snow park,drew hundreds of people. There STORM members articulated a strong anti0imperialist line that resonated with everyday people there."
- STORM on MAO, Reclaiming Revolution, pg 51, "Storm was never formally a 'marxist-leninist' oranization, and we never has a systematic marzist theoretical framework. But we did have a poliical commitment to the fundamental ideas of marxism-leninism. We upheld the marxist critique of capitalist explotaiton, We agree with Lenin's analysis of the state and party and we found inspiration and guidance int eh insurgent revolutionary stategies developed by third world revolutionries like Mao Tse-Tung and Amilcar Cabral."

Part 6Reasonable Questions for Unreasonable Times
Day 1
Can we survive this debt? If yes, how?
Why the rush on health care reform, cap-and-trade?• Who is writing these bills?
Will Washington read and understand the bills?
Why are you called "grassroots" if you are for, but "Astroturf" if you are against?
Our unfunded liabilities for Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid is close to $100 trillion. Is there any way to pay for these programs without bankrupting America?
We are in so much debt, why spend more borrowed money on cap-and-trade and health care programs before we stop the flow of red ink?
The stimulus package funneled billions of dollars to ACORN: How does giving billions of dollars to ACORN stimulate the economy?
If it was so important for Congress to pass the stimulus bill before they even had time to read it, why has only a fraction of the stimulus money been spent six months later?
Former President Bush said he had to abandon free market principles in order to save them; how exactly does that work?
Why won’t member of Congress read the bills before they vote on them?
Why are citizens mocked and laughed at when they ask their congressman to read the bills before they vote on them?
Was the "cash for clunkers" program meant to save the Earth or the economy? Did it accomplish either?
How did Van Jones, a self-proclaimed communist, become a special adviser to the president?
Did President Obama know of Van Jones’ radical political beliefs when he named him special adviser?
The Apollo Alliance claimed credit for writing the stimulus bill; why was this group allowed to write any portion of this bill?
If politicians aren’t writing the bills and aren’t reading the bills, do they have any idea what these 1,000-page plus bills actually impose on the American people?
If the "public option" health care plan is so good, why won’t politicians agree to have that as their plan?
If town hall meetings are intended for the politicians to learn what’s on our mind, why do they spend so much time talking instead of listening?
Politicians are refusing to attend town hall meetings complaining, without evidence, that they are scripted. Does that mean we shouldn’t come out and vote for you since every campaign stop, baby kiss and speech you give is scripted?
Why would you want to overwhelm the system?
Is using the economic crises to rush legislation through Congress what Rahm Emanuel meant when he talked about not letting a crisis go to waste?
What are the president's "czars" paid? What is the budget for their staffs/offices?
