Glen Beck calls Obama a Marxist and a "liberal fascist".
Gang, this is the final warning. I mean it. This is the final warning. You cannot become — you cannot get any clearer on what is coming. t amazes me day after day after day after day that America just doesn’t seem to care anymore, but you cannot get any clearer. If this is out here and this man is elected, you are going to elect the most arrogant Marxist who will not be stopped because he came into office fully uncovered. Every — do not pretend to be shocked when we begin to see a Marxist and who I believe will become a fascist President. And he will become fascist because he will not understand how you suddenly don’t want to become Marxist. As he starts to change the Constitution, listen to what he said in 2001...

The Barack Obama We Hardly Know (By John R. Lott Jr.)
Is Barack Obama a socialist? A Marxist? It is hard to believe that question could even be seriously asked of a major party political candidate...

Ghilarducci interviewed on plan to socialize 401(k) plans
Mark Levin interviewed Professor Teresa Ghilarducci whose plan for the U.S. government to take over private pension plans to "protect retirees" is being touted by Congressman Barney Frank. This interview will go down as classic Mark Levin. (She is voting for Barack Obama. Go figure). [WMA File here]

Stanley Ann Dunham Not in Hawaii When Barry Obama Was Born???
Atlas reader Rudy emailed both the University of Washington and the University of Hawaii, and they sent him back dates of enrollment. It didn't match the dates Wikipedia had for Stanley Ann Dunham. Bob tried to update Wikipedia and his updates got deleted within minutes. The big question is how was Ann having Barack in Honolulu in Aug 1961 AND enrolled at the U of Washington the same month?...

Lawsuits Multiply Re: Barack Obama Birth Certificate
Hawaii, Washington, California, Florida, Georgia, Pennsylvania, New York and Connecticut now have lawsuits. They are after judicial authority to compel the certifying or decertifying of Barack Obama's qualification to run for President.

Senator Obama's Four Tax Increases for People Earning Under $250k (American Thinker)
*** 4 big lies Obama is telling ***
The first loophole was easy to find: Senator Obama doesn't "count" allowing the Bush tax cuts to lapse as a tax increase. Unless the cuts are re-enacted, rates will automatically return to the 2000 level. Senator Obama claims that letting a tax cut lapse -- allowing the rates to return to a higher levels -- is not actually a "tax increase." It's just the lapsing of a tax cut. See the difference? Neither do I.... Senator Obama is willfully deceiving you and me when he says that no one making under $250,000 will see an increase in their taxes. If I were keeping score, I'd call that Tax Lie #1.

B. Hussein Obama propaganist, Bill Burton, gets "spanked" by Fox's Megyn Kelly (YouTube)
[Burton is a disgrace, trying to spin Zero-Bama's "redistribution of wealth" flap.]

Obama: “I don’t believe people should be able to own guns.”
This MP3 is from an interview of John Lott by Dave Bose, substituting for Michael Medved on the Michael Medved radio show. Lott is currently a professor at the University of Maryland and is the author of "More Guns, Less Crime" and "Freedomonics." Lott taught at the University of Chicago the same time Obama was an instructor at Chicago. The transcript picks up approximately half way through the audio file...

Questions too tough? Biden Bans Philly CBS TV Station?

The Constitution: Article II, Section 1: "Just Words?"
...from the looks of things right now, the American people have no standing to take issue with this little known problem [Obama's eligibility] in the way our current electoral process is functioning....There is only one solution. There must be a grass roots movement that takes place in the next 10 days in which “We the People” (you and me) write the county and state board of elections, refusing to recognize the legitimacy of the ballot. We must insist that these boards put in place a process to verify the authenticity of Obama’s citizenship. This must be done right now. As “We the People,” we cannot abdicate our responsibility in this time of constitutional crisis.

The L.A. Times Suppresses Obama’s Khalidi Bash Tape

Exclusive: How Does Barack Obama Know Khalid al Mansour?
Atop that list [of Obama's Fight the Smears] is one Dr. Khalid al Mansour, a man who describes himself as an “internationally acknowledged advisor to heads-of-state and business leaders in Africa, Asia, the Middle East and North America”...involved in the African investment activities of Kingdom Holdings, the investment company of Saudi Arabian Prince Al-Waleed bin Talal (who Rudy Giuliani famously rebuked at Ground Zero)....Mansour sits on the boards of nearly a dozen conglomerates and banks all over the world. Oh, and just in case you didn’t think his resume was impressive enough, he’s also authored two dozen books. Richard Fernandez called Mansour “the human equivalent of the Nigerian e-mail scam.”
