Priorities: Obama Voted Against Subprime Reform and Wrote a Weakly-Worded Letter After the Bubble Burst;
But: He Personally Took a Strong Role in Making Sure the Habeas "Rights" of Terrorists Were Protected

Compare and contrast.

The weak letter about the subprime catastrophe he had created.

But he didn't feel a mere letter was enough when it came to a cause he was passionate about:

Obama made the enemy combatants' defense his personal cause, the lawyers said: "Senator Obama worked with us to count the votes, and he personally lobbied colleagues who worried about the political ramifications of voting to preserve habeas corpus for the men held at Guantanamo."

I realize this post is racist, somehow, by the way. No need to tell me so.

About that Khalidi dinner...Ayers confirmed there, and the "Electronic Intifada"

NY Sun, Sol Stern, 2-4-2005

"A big farewell dinner was held in their honor by AAAN with a commemorative book filled with testimonials from their friends and political allies. These included the left wing anti-war group Not In My Name, the Electronic Intifada, and the ex-Weatherman domestic terrorists Bernadine Dohrn and Bill Ayers. (There were also testimonials from then-state Senator Barack Obama and the mayor of Chicago.)"

I think we knew that his so-called support for CRA reform was BS because he never would release the letter.

 

But "deregulation" caused the problems.

17 #12, that seems to be the standard left-wing talking point.

A video of Obama praising a terrorist-sympathizer while surrounded by other terrorists (whom Obama denies even talking to) may trump a vague donation, I'm not sure.

If disappointing, given his historically close relations to Palestinian-Americans, Obama's about-face is not surprising. He is merely doing what he thinks is necessary to get elected and he will continue doing it as long as it keeps him in power. Palestinian-Americans are in the same position as civil libertarians who watched with dismay as Obama voted to reauthorize the USA Patriot Act, or immigrant rights advocates who were horrified as he voted in favor of a Republican bill to authorize the construction of a 700-mile fence on the border with Mexico.

Fucking priceless.

Anyone who wants to make the evening news can simply hang an effigy of a skinny person of color in front of your house. Tell the media that you know it's in bad taste but you also consider it art and/or a freedom of speech issue.

(And, good luck with that whole prison sex thing.)

Hey, I know this is OT, but Fox News is asking that we contact LA Times either by px @ 1-877-554-4000, or through email attn Jamie Gold at readers.rep@latimes.com.

Yes.

And Kathy Boudin's father, Leonard Boudin, was legal counsel to National Emergency Civil Rights Committee which was later folded into the Center for Constitutional Rights.  He also represented Castro when the US sued him.

He was the gateway to Cuba for many Weathermen.
