fisher1630 Posted November 2, 2008 Report Share Posted November 2, 2008 I recieved this in an email, don't know how much of this is true but it is interesting to think about. No matter what your political stance, or party, we ALL should be aware of the following information. This is called food for thought....Think about it !!! If you've seen this before...read it again before you vote! Originally written and emailed by a woman who did some research... 'This election has me very worried. So many things to consider! About a year ago I would have voted for Obama. I have changed my mind three times since then. I watch all the news channels, jumping from one to another. I must say this drives my husband crazy. But, I feel if you view MSNBC, CNN, and Fox News, you might get some middle ground to work with. About six months ago, I started thinking 'where did the money come from for Obama?' I have four daughters who went to college. We were middle class, and money was tight. We (including my girls) worked hard and there were lots of student loans. I started looking into Obama's life. Around 1979 Obama started college at Occidental in California. He is very open about his two y ears at Occidental. He tried all kinds of drugs and was wasting his time, but, even though he had a brilliant mind, he did not apply himself to his studies. 'Barry' (the name he used all his life) during this time had two roommates, Muhammad Hasan Chandoo and Wahid Hamid, both from Pakistan. During the summer of 1981, after his second year in college, he made a 'round the world' trip...Stopping to see his mother in Indonesia,... next, Hyderabad in India,...three weeks in Karachi, Pakistan where he stayed with his roommate's family,...then off to Africa to visit his father's family. My question - Where did he get the money for this trip? Neither I, nor any one of my children, would have had money for a trip like this when they were in college. When he returned, he started school at Columbia University in New York. It is at this time he wants everyone to call him Barack - not Barry. Do you know what the tuition is at Columbia? I t's not cheap to say the least! Where did he get money for tuition? Student Loans? Maybe. After Columbia, he went to Chicago to work as a Community Organizer for $12,000. a year. Why Chicago? Why not New York? He was already living in New York. By 'chance' he met Antoin 'Tony' Rezko, born in Aleppo Syria, and a real estate developer in Chicago. Rezko has been convicted of fraud and bribery this year. Rezko was named 'Entrepreneur of the Decade' by the Arab-American Business and Professional Association'. About two years later, Obama entered Harvard Law School. Do you have any idea what tuition is for Harvard Law School? Where did he get the money for Law School? More student loans? After Law school, he went back to Chicago. Rezko offered him a job, which he turned down. But, he did take a job with Davis, Miner, Barnhill & Galland. Guess what? They represented 'Rezar,' Rezko's firm. Rezko was one of Obama's first major financial contributors when he ran for office in Chicago. In 2003, Rezko threw an early fundraiser for Obama which Chicago Tribune reporter David Mendelland claims was instrumental in providing Obama with 'seed money' for his U.S. Senate race. In 2005, Obama purchased a new home in Kenwoood District of Chicago for $1.65 million (less than asking price). With ALL those Student Loans - Where did he get the money for the property? On the same day, Rezko's wife, Rita, purchased the adjoining empty lot for full price. The London Times reported that Nadhmi Auchi, an Iraqi-born Billionaire, loaned Rezko $3.5 million three weeks before Obama's new home was purchased. Obama met Nadhmi Auchi many times with Rezko. Now, we have Obama running for President. Valerie Jarrett was Michele Obama's boss. She is now Obama's chief advisor and he does not make any major decisions without talking to her first. Whe re was Jarrett born? Ready for this? Shiraz, Iran! Do we see a pattern here? Or am I going crazy? On May 10, 2008, The Times reported: Robert Malley, advisor to Obama was 'sacked' after the press found out he was having regular contacts with Hamas', which controls Gaza (Remember the campaign contributions his campaign tried to hide under the state of Ga. which really were from the Gaza Strip) and is connected with Iran. This past week, buried in the back part of the papers, Iraqi newspapers reported that during Obama's visit to Iraq, he asked their leaders to do nothing about the war until after he is elected, and he will 'Take care of things'. (Basically what he said was 'don't make any deals with the current president, but wait until the new President is elected,' and he also spoke to a high ranking military official and asked him not to make any major decisions about the war until the new president is elected.) I wonder who he thought that was going to b e? Oh, and by the way, remember the college roommates that were born in Pakistan? They are in charge of all those 'small' Internet campaign contributions for Obama. Where is that money coming from? The poor and middle class in this country? Or could it be from the Middle East? (Like the aforementioned Gaza Strip where it is documented he received contributions and tried to conceal them under the state of Ga.). My friends, it is illegal to accept contributions from anyone other than a U.S. citizen, so why was nothing done about this? And the final bit of news. On September 7, 2008, The Washington Times posted a verbal slip that was made on 'This Week' with George Stephanapoulos. Obama, on talking about his religion, said, 'My Muslim faith.' When questioned, 'did he make a mistake.' Some mistake! All of the above information I found on line. If you would like to check it - Wikipedia, encyclope dia, Barack Obama; Tony Rezko; Valerie Jarrett: Daily Times - Obama visited Pakistan in 1981; The Washington Times - September 7, 2008; The Times May 10, 2008. Now the BIG question - If I found out all this information on my own, Why haven't all of our 'intelligent' members of the press been reporting this? Because they do not want him to lose the election, and this blows my mind! I am not sure why it does not have that effect on other American Citizens! A phrase that keeps ringing in my ears - 'Beware of the enemy from within!!!' 'Every Nation that has fallen, has fallen from within!'

pogy Posted November 2, 2008 Report Share Posted November 2, 2008 Keep an open mind that the whole piece was debunked and is total bullcrap. Oh and it is accredited to "a woman who did some research". Come on man. Come on Pat, the thing she says, is where did the money come from?? I have said the same thing over and over. Somebody said from his books, but that does not really answer the question. That money sure didn't come from working a PT job while going to school did it. SO the question remains, where did it come from. Try to debunk that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fisher1630 Posted November 2, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 2, 2008 I am not saying this material should be taken as fact. It brings up some interesting points that, in the least bit are entertaining. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It brings up some interesting points that, in the least bit are entertaining. It brings up lies and smears. And unless you find pathetic attempts to sway the ignorant entertaining... I'm going with cringe-worthy sad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Purser Posted November 2, 2008 Report Share Posted November 2, 2008 I think your mind is so open your brains fell out. Of all the preposterous assumptions of humanity over humanity, nothing exceeds most of the criticisms made on the habits of the poor by the well-housed, well-warmed, and well-fed. - Herman Melville Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fisher1630 Posted November 2, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 2, 2008 Wow, didn't mean for this to get personal or anything, maybe I am just a dumb F***. You have to understand that this article was written with an extreme bias, take into account the point of view from which it was written in. Once again this is not 100% truth and very grossly exaggerated at points. Read what it says and take it for what it is worth, a one sided article that most likely does have some truth and vailidity to it. This is not the end all be all about Obama. What it does do is get you to think twice about him and maybe look more closely at whoever you are voting for. Maybe you should open up your mind and let some of those moths out . Ps I dont know what type of studen loans he received, but mine sure wouldn't fit the bill for a trip like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
