The comprehensive argument against Barack Obama

By Guy Benson ([url=http://www.guybensonshow.com]http://www.guybensonshow.com[/url]) and Mary Katharine Ham ([url=http://www.weeklystandard.com]http://www.weeklystandard.com[/url]) Editor and Contributor, Ed Morrissey Allow us to put our cards on the table at the outset: We are two young conservative journalists—both in our 20s. Unlike many of our peers, we are not swept up in Obamamania and would prefer John McCain to win the election. We’ve teamed up with seasoned blogger extraordinaire, Ed Morrissey, whose careful and thoughtful pursuit of the truth—even when it benefits his political opponents—is respected across the blogosphere. In that spirit, we are not at all interested in perpetuating lies, rumors, and innuendo about Barack Obama. Promoting such information does America a disservice, allows Obama’s supporters to justifiably cry “smear,” and damages our own credibility.

Cleveland and Pittsburgh voter report

Here’s something completely unscientific — but wholly contrary to what the media’s been claiming. I saw you posted remarks on the polls media are pushing, claiming 80% of Clinton voters are backing Obama and that 85% of Democrats are all falling in line…more than the percentage of Republicans who are voting for McCain (which the media claims is only 80%).

The Third Jihad Will Make Cultural Islamists Squirm

A few weeks ago Bridget Johnson reported here at Pajamas Media about the jihad against free speech being waged by the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) against the national DVD distribution of copies of the documentary Obsession: Radical Islam’s War Against the West, in more than 70 papers. Not only has CAIR filed complaints with the Federal Election Commission against the group sponsoring the campaign, the Clarion Fund, but they have also demanded that the IRS investigate the organization’s tax-exempt status, claiming that the Clarion Fund is a front group for an Israeli organization. The evidence they have provided, however, is little more than the guilt-by-association variety.

DEMS GET SET TO MUZZLE THE RIGHT

SHOULD Barack Obama win the presidency and Democrats take full control of Congress, next year will see a real legislative attempt to bring back the Fairness Doctrine - and to diminish conservatives' influence on broadcast radio, the one medium they dominate.

Obama’s Religious Ruse:
His “Conversion” Part 2 of 3

During his presidential campaign, Obama the skeptic has touted his Christian identity as defining who he is. After Christians continued to question his faith’s authenticity and evidence of his Muslim background had come to light, the champion of change changed his conversion account and his pandering became uncharacteristically evangelical.

Why I Would Vote Mc Cain… If I Were American

“People have the Governments they deserve”, said my father as the TV screen unfolded line by line the computer-made image of just elected French President François Mitterrand. I was a little boy back in 1981, with no political conscience, but I remember the matter-of-fact statement my father gave me. And I could well imagine him saying it again almost three decades later, on November 4 of this year, should he be alive.
