Scott Ott of Scrappleface sticks it to the L.A. Times in this sarcastic piece of satirical reporting as reports of the Times hiding a piece of 2003 footage highlighting Obama’s support of the Arafat regime. Israel be afraid, be very afraid…
(FLORIDA) — John McCain today withdrew his demand that the Los Angeles Times release video footage taken in 2003 of then-state Sen. Barack Obama praising controversial Palestinian activist Rashid Khalidi, and he instead thanked the paper for its courage.
“I changed my mind, and I want to thank you,” said Sen. McCain in a letter to editors at the Times. “You folks go ahead, stick with your bold decision to keep that video secret. After all, what’s a free press for, if not to withhold news that people don’t really need, or that might cause discomfort just a few days before an election?”
“My friends, if you journalists want to keep folks guessing about what you’re hiding and why,” he wrote, “that’s your right. If you want people to wonder if your decision is driven by your commitment to protect your anonymous source (whoever that may be) or by your recent endorsement of Sen. Obama for president, you have that freedom.”
During a political rally today, the Republican presidential candidate encouraged undecided voters, “not to make too much of this top-secret video, in which Sen. Obama allegedly toasts his ‘friend and frequent dinner companion’ Rashid Khalidi, the former director of the Palestinian press agency during the Yassir Arafat era.’”
“After all,” Sen. McCain added, “it’s been 30 years since the Coastal Road massacre when Palestinian soldiers hijacked a bus, slaughtering 37 Israeli civilians and wounding 71. Rashid Khalidi was merely director of the Palestinian press agency at that time, kind of like a journalist. He didn’t actually fire any of those weapons that day.”
Sen. McCain also came to the defense of his opponent, noting that Sen. Obama was only 17 years old when the massacre took place, and that Rashid Khalidi is “just a guy in Sen. Obama’s neighborhood, like Bill Ayers, who is now a respected scholar.” — as reported by satirist Scott Ott / ScrappleFace

Most of the Obamanista lemmings have been so brainwashed by his campaign and his silver tongued rhetoric that he could be in league with Bin Laden himself and they would still vote for him before voting for a Republican. That’s how deeply they have drunk from and emptied the Obama “Kool-aid” punch bowl.
What another astute syndicated black writer, Thomas Sowell, has to say about Obama’s con job on gullible Americans…
Thomas Sowell: “.. In addition to the voter frauds that ACORN has been involved in over the years, it is an organization with a history of thuggery..”
“Jeremiah Wright and Michael Pfleger are not just people with left-wing opinions. They are reckless demagogues preaching hatred of the lowest sort — and both are recipients of money from Obama.”
“Bill Ayers is not just ‘an education professor’ who has some left-wing views. He is a confessed and unrepentant terrorist, who more recently has put his message of resentment into the schools — an effort using money from a foundation that Obama headed.”
..
“A CANDIDATE WHO SPENDS TWO DECADES PROMOTING THE POLARIZATION AND THEN RUNS AS A HEALER AND UNITER, RATHER THAN A DIVIDER, FORFEITS ALL TRUST BY THAT FACT ALONE.”
…
“If Barack Obama had run as what he has always been, rather than as what he has never been, then we could simply cast our votes based on whether or not we agree with what he has always stood for.”
“Some people take solace from the fact that Senator Obama has verbally shifted position on some issues, like drilling for oil or gun control, since this is supposed to show that he is ‘pragmatic’ rather than ideological.”
“BUT POLITICAL ZIG-ZAGS SHOW NO SUCH MODERATION AS SOME SEEM TO ASSUME. LENIN ZIG-ZAGGED AND SO DID HITLER. ZIG-ZAGS MAY SHOW NO MORE THAN THAT SOMEONE IS PLAYING THE PUBLIC FOR FOOLS.”
“Some people who see the fraud in what Obama is saying are amazed that others do not. BUT OBAMA KNOWS WHAT CON MEN HAVE LONG KNOWN, THAT THEIR JOB IS NOT TO CONVINCE SKEPTICS BUT TO ENABLE THE GULLIBLE TO CONTINUE TO BELIEVE WHAT THEY WANT TO BELIEVE. He does that very well.” — Thomas Sowell.
Don’t expect to see Thomas Sowell interviewed on any main stream media news outlet other than perhaps Fox.
Oops that’s two posts in a row from a person of color critcizing Barack Obama’s policies! I guess that makes us racist along with the authors for having such audacity…
Don’t expect his logic to get any airplay on the MSM. You won’t hear this at one of Rev. Wright’s sermons…
Straight up talk to his Brothers and Sisters…

Bravo Macho! You deserve kudos for guts, courage and honesty. You will of course more than likely be dismissed as an uncle tom by many ignorant, leftist, racist liberals of all skin colors mesmerized by the silver tongued self appointed savior of American society.
Why He’s a Republican…
Right on my friend… Too bad Colin Powell didn’t have the courage you have but I still respect what he has done for his country. Lord knows what would have been said of General Powell had he endorsed John McCain !!
Sorry we have been out of pocket for several days but we haven’t forgotten you.
For your critical review — Our Top 5 Picks of the Week: Political cartoons focused on the topic of grass roots community organizing aka “Acorn Voter Fraud” :
We have become a fine example of democracy at work for “3rd world nations” around the world to emulate. The voting process in Iraq was probably more honest using blue ink on voter’s thumbs to prevent voter fraud. We never thought it would come to this in the United States but then again, Obama is all about CHANGE..!! Get used to it. Your in the USSA now… United Socialist States of America.
