Obama: Let illegals get aid for college

By selliott | Thursday, October 11, 2007, 12:03 AM

(Obama campaigning Tuesday in Londonderry, N.H.)

On Tuesday, Barack Obama called on California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger not to veto a bill that would make illegal immigrants who graduate high school eligible for college aid.

Schwarzenegger has vetoed a similar measure once before. Obama co-sponsored a similar measure when he was in the Illinois legislature.

Also check out this story from a Georgia-based writer which makes a passing reference to Obama’s education positions but compares the Democratic senator to Ronald Reagan.

This post also appears on the Education Writers Association’s Education Election blog.

When it reaches the point, where it has with some, that the image worshipped is not a true reflection of the object worshipped and the false image is treated as the reality then we have a reactive, and irrational, computation that can lead into all manner of bizarre conclusions some of which can in reality be quite foul.

Both Stalin and Hitler had a cult following and both men committed deeds that were quite foul.

Barring a revolution it will be left to individuals to act on their own.

I agree Cyni. We're headed into the perfect economic storm, and once boobus America fully realizes that their retirement fund has been raided, their job outsourced and that the political elite, interchangeable as they are, are incapable of assistance, anything is possible. I've heard that we can expect a commercial real estate collapse come Feb. or March. When ghost malls fail to produce local government revenue, our pols will come to the remaining homeowners for relief. That will be our best chance to act as one.

What a stunning, hypocritical contrast Mikey & his band of imps make. For the past eight years they shook their fist at #43 in a furious "anti-war" statement. Now comes Master Obingo surrounded by the same clique of torturers and war hawks. Their response? Knee pads and smiling jubilation. If Mikey claims another physical or emotional excuse for his blood lust, I'll lose my lunch.

The sheer insanity of it is what boggles my mind. It shows one of two things:

1. Mikey, and the rest of Obamaphiles, are liars and hypocrites of the first order.

2. They are completely around the bend and living in some altered state of unreality.

I suspect both.

Regardless I find them to be quite despicable (and that is to put it in relatively mild and unprofane terms).

The evil which they now support, while falsely calling it good, is the same mental and moral juggling act which was propounded by the Bushbots.

Torture is not torture.

War is Peace

Freedom is Slavery

Ignorance is Strength.

I notice Mikey has made himself very scarce. A pusillanimous pompous Puffin-Jay.

This is about the best way to explain their political conversion. The very same psychological disorder that grips the FReepers and the DU'ers, has ensnared them. Their embrace of this multicultural version of Bush 3.0 suggests they were never who they led us to believe they were. Those that fear government speech codes have gone silent or retreated to a more pleasant posting experience - one that is left of Obingo himself. Those that remain here are incapable of defending the man or his cabinet.

Hey Mikey.

Where'd ya go boy?

I responded to you without using the addressee bar to underscore my lack of respect for your position.

And then after all your whining what do you do?

Why you take a powder because the reality is that you cannot stand reason and prefer to live in your fog of unreality.

You do not want a reasoned response. What you want is to try to set people off so that they will give an unreasoned response. When you do receive a reasoned response you are totally unprepared to to respond in the same vein. Your position is bankrupt both morally and ethically. You expose yourself for the pompous pusillanimous ass you are.

Bush 3.0 is about right. Oh'bummer is as much an empty suit and puppet as the drugged up wreck currently infesting the White House. Given his vacant and utterly cool demeanor in the midst of his falsity regarding his eligibility for the Preznitcy being exposed I suspect he is likely kept on some sort of medication as was Duhbya.

Obango's connections to the CIA are beginning to surface and so we see the same pattern repeating, but the PsyOp controlled ciphers such as Mikey the Weasel, cannot see it because they are completely controlled in their reactions and responses. As we can see with Mikey when they are confronted with something that forces them to run up against their conditioned responses they shatter like brittle glass and run for the comfort of their foetal positions. Ultimately I do feel sorry for Mikey because the fog he lives in cannot be a pleasant one. Personally I share Patrick Henry's noble viewpoint: "I would rather know the worst and be able to prepare for it...". As Albert Camus put it:

"The truth is cruel, but it can be loved, and it sets free those who have loved it."

The only thing more cruel than living with the truth is to live one's life in a lie.

So, I do feel sorry for Mikey as the lies he cherishes are still lies.

She fits the profile. The CIA likes to recruit young intelligent but impressionable people as they do not have the experience of an older person who would be able to see the conflicts involved. (Thanks to my father I believe I avoided such a program but did not realize it until many years later when I became more aware of what the CIA actually does and how it actually operates.)

Barry seems to be exhibiting behavior that suggests that he has been through some form of a conditioning program. Some of his reactions are unnatural - such as his calm when confronted with things which could easily destroy him. That is symptomatic of someone put through an MK Utra derivative type regimen.

Possibly hiding what he was doing in addition to his "studies" under Brzhenski. He appears well schooled, and possibly well conditioned.

Mike, the reality is that as he hasn't released his birth certificate, there's no evidence that he was born in Hawaii. He's spent almost a million bucks to keep his birth certificate out of the conversation.

If Bush had spent a million bucks to keep any of his documents out of the public eye, would you be defending his actions as vigorously as you do Obama's?

Explain this Mikey.

Someone is lying. According to Obama's Kenyan (paternal) grandmother, as well as his half-brother and half-sister, Barack Hussein Obama was born in Kenya, not in Hawaii as the Democratic candidate for president claims. His grandmother bragged that her grandson is about to be President of the United States and is so proud because she was present DURING HIS BIRTH IN KENYA, in the delivery room. -This, according to several news sites and Pennsylvania attorney Philip J. Berg (see video below) who is, surprisingly, a life long democrat himself. Berg is the former Deputy Attorney General of Pennsylvania, and he has an impressive background in his activities as a democrat, but his support for the party seemingly stops when it comes to his trust in Barack Hussein Obama.

I have an undergraduate degree in Anthropology and it is very well known that these field anthropologists and archeologists sometimes have to get a permit from the State Department(to work overseas) and there are strings attached.

Delightful. You begin by trying to put words in my mouth and then continue with fine false logic i.e., an unsupported assertion. You attempt by using Guilt by Association , Loaded Words, and Argumentum Ad Hominem to denigrate a legitimate question and inquiry. One which you, and Oh'Bummer, obviously cannot refute.

So, who do you work for Mike? CIA, FBI, ADL? Or some other "Alphabet Soup" Agency? Or do you simply live in a fog where what you wish to be true is true and facts be damned?

The facts are simply:

1. That he produced a documentary forgery - a "Record of Live Birth" from a state that allows such registration up to a year after a child is born.

2. A "Record of Live Birth" is NOT a Birth Certificate which is a formal document listing specifics i.e., Date, Time, Place of Birth, Hospital, Attending Physician, and has a State Seal. A "Record of Live Birth" is simply a document which attests that a baby was born alive and exists. It's evidenciary value in this matter, even given the serious and sustainable questions regarding its being altered (thus invalidating it), is nearly zero.

3. If he could produce a legitimate legal document i.e., a Birth Certificate he would. Instead he has spent upwards of a million dollars in legal expenses to avoid and prevent having to produce said document.

4. "2" and "3" provide a prima facie evidence that Barry Barack Hussein Soetoro Obama is lying and cannot in fact produce a legal Birth Certificate. To end the controversy all he need do is present a legal Birth Certificate (something which costs much less than a million dollars).

5. He has secured and is withholding his college admissions records and Transcript - something quite unprecedented. The most likely reason for that is that he registered as a foreign student with Indonesian Citizenship. Thus invalidating him Constitutionally a second time from holding the office of the Presidency. (It might also reveal holes and gaps which could connect him to the CIA.)

So, I repeat: Who do you really work for Mikey?

Is that your function in Eugene - to infiltrate local organizations as "one of us"?

And I would note that you remain silent and unresponsive to any of my earlier comments other than trying to prop up the apparent lie that Oh'bummer is Constitutionally qualified to hold the office of President.

It was revealed, after his death, that the late Ivan T. Sanderson (Cryptozooligist and Archaeologist) was an employee of the CIA during all of his travels overseas.

So, I suspect you are right that anyone seeking to do field research overseas can be, and often is, approached and used.

All the evidence suggests that he was born in Kenya and gave up any claim on U.S. Citizenship for Indonesian Citizenship.

Barry Barack Hussein Soetoro Obama does not satisfy the Constitutional Requirements for President and is thus not qualified to hold the Office.

It seems the weasel lives in Wonderland.

'I don't know what you mean by "glory",' Alice said.

Humpty Dumpty smiled contemptuously. 'Of course you don't -- till I tell you. I meant "there's a nice knock-down argument for you!"'

'But "glory" doesn't mean "a nice knock-down argument",' Alice objected.

'When I use a word,' Humpty Dumpty said, in rather a scornful tone, 'it means just what I choose it to mean -- neither more nor less.'

'The question is,' said Alice, 'whether you can make words mean so many different things.'

'The question is,' said Humpty Dumpty, 'which is to be master -- that's all.'

'But really you should have a lady's-maid!'

'I'm sure I'll take you with pleasure!' the Queen said. 'Twopence a week and jam every other day.'

Alice couldn't help laughing, as she said 'I don't want you to hire me -- and I don't care for jam.'

'It's very good jam,' said the Queen.

'Well, I don't want any to-day, at any rate.'

'You couldn't have it if you did want it,' the Queen said. 'The rule is, jam to-morrow and jam yesterday -- but never jam to-day.'

'It must come sometimes to "jam to-day",' Alice objected.

'No, it ca'n't, said the Queen. 'It's jam every other day: to-day isn't any other day, you know.'

'I ca'n't believe that!' said Alice.

'Ca'n't you?' the Queen said in a pitying tone. 'Try again: draw a long breath, and shut your eyes.'

Alice laughed. 'There's no use trying,' she said 'one ca'n't believe impossible things.'

'I daresay you haven't had much practice,' said the Queen. 'When I was your age, I always did it for half-an-hour a day. Why, sometimes I've believed as many as six impossible things before breakfast.

Liberty is not a means to a higher political end. It is itself the highest political end.

They're not different than the Bushbots - they just drink a different flavor of Kool-Aid - "Fruit" Punch would be my guess.

Of course they're probably "White Wine" drinkers too, and you know what Betty Davis said about White Wine Drinkers: "Never trust a White Wine Drinker."

Seriously though - they are every bit as deluded as the spittle dripping, speaking tongues, Geeeeeeeeee Duhbya supporter - it is just a different facet of the ongoing perception management regimen that the entire country is assaulted with continuously. Which is why I don't watch "Tee Bee" - as it is the major outlet of effluvia and mind control memes.

Question: Did Barack Obama attend his grandmother's funeral?

Answer: Neither the president-elect nor his sister, Maya Soetero-Ng, were present for the ceremony Nov. 14 for their beloved "Toot," Madelyn Payne Dunham, 86. She died of cancer Nov. 2. - www.azstarnet.com/metro/269430

But he did take time to attend another funeral:

Obama attends funeral for friend's family member

11/28/08

CHICAGO (AP) — President-elect Barack Obama on Friday attended a funeral for a friend's relative.

The service was for a family member of Eric Whitaker, Illinois' former public health director. Obama's press aides declined to say whose funeral he attended.

Dressed in dark attire, Obama and his wife, Michelle, arrived Friday morning at the Fellowship Missionary Baptist Church in Chicago. They were inside for almost two hours.

Reporters were not allowed into the service.

Last year Whitaker returned to his alma mater, the University of Chicago, to work on its Urban Health Initiative. Michelle Obama helped to create the program. She has been on leave from her job as a high-level administrator at the University of Chicago Medical Center to help with her husband's presidential campaign.

Barack Obama had no public events scheduled for Friday. - link

It's said there'll be a family ceremony this month. What a weird effin' family.
