Yesterday afternoon, I was listening to the Kevin McCullough show on BlogNet Radio, and we were all discussing the controversy surrounding Barack Obama, and his racist, anti-American pastor, the wrong-reverend Wright.

As we discussed the issue, Kevin was elightened with a wonderful idea...kill 'em with love. Here is what his Townhall blog says:

"God Bless America!"

On the broadcast today a SPECIAL Easter Weekend idea hit some of my listeners and I at the same time. This weekend - thousands of born again, Evangelical and Catholic, Black and White - CHRISTIANS will be observing the celebration of Jesus Christ's miracle of Resurrection over sin and death. In this nation - we have greater religious liberty and freedom than any other nation on earth.

So our goal for the "GOD BLESS AMERICA" campaign - THIS WEEKEND - is to remind Dr. Wright and the Trinity United Church of Christ about God's blessings that He HAS poured out on us.

We are asking YOU to take part in this with thousands of like-minded Christians from across the nation...

Dial Trinity at 773.962.5650 - all weekend long - and tell them that you're praying "for God to bless America." Repeat it three times, thank them for their time and then let them go. Three times Dr. Wright called down God's damnation on America in the soundbyte that has been played over and over.

Imagine thousands of messages of blessing - coming from mostly WHITE people to let Dr. Wright know that we are asking God to bless us, and Trinity UCC by extension.

The weight of this ounce of goodness would be heavier than ten tons of guilt. My listeners took to the idea immediately. But we need radio shows, blogs, columnists and everyday people to pass it on to their friends.

Call Trinity at 773.962.5650...

It is time for another candidate profile. This time, we shall examine a man who has been termed by some as a little on the left (of Joseph Stalin)! Of course, I am speaking of Barack Hussein Obama. The issue at hand: abortion

I had received a special report called “Barack Obama Exposed” from Human Events, www.humanevents.com. Unfortunately, I seem to have lost that in the never-ending abyss that is “my documents” in my computer. It had some pretty startling facts in it. So, I will try to find as much as I can online to save you, my fellow Opinionators, from having to do the grunt work to find all this information yourselves; I’ll grunt for you.

The first item to which I would like to point your attention is an article titled, “Barack Obama states abortion position to NARAL,” found at The Flying Facist website. In his position, Barack Hussein Obama states: “A woman’s ability to decide how many children to have and when, without interference from the government, is one of the most fundamental rights we possess.”

You know, I half-way agree with him here. The message would be perfect were he speaking to a group of high school girls about abstaining from sex until marriage. Were he telling them, “don’t have sex without birth control, even after marriage, unless you are ready and able to provide a child with the love and resources that it takes to bring that child up in a healthy, stable family,” that would be a great message.

Unfortunately, that is not the message that Barack Hussein Obama is trying to send. Instead, his is a message of trying to preserve abortion as a method of choosing if and when to have a baby. In other words, he is using this as another form of birth control. He is saying that if the child is inconvenient, kill it. Plain and simple.

Barack Hussein Obama further goes on to say, “I believe we must work together to reduce the number of unintended pregnancies.” He then pays a little lip service to the less “blood-thirsty” among civilization by talking a little about contraceptives and sex education. But it all leads back to the same thing: murdering babies.

The obvious best way to “reduce the number of unintended pregnancies” is to not have sex in the first place. However, I am in agreement with the majority here, and realize that this is not, in all cases, a viable possibility. Thus, the second-best way to reduce unintended pregnancies: birth control…BEFORE intercourse…not the “morning after.” In my Right Opinion, that is abortion as well.

I just love the little euphemisms that these liberals put on topics dealing with abortion. It’s not abortion, it’s “family planning.” And it’s not “the abortion pill” that the female takes AFTER becoming pregnant, it’s the “morning after pill,” the “Plan-B pill,” or my favorite, “emergency contraception.” The emergency was BEFORE you laid down with that man last night and didn’t have a condom, now it’s just reality!

From one of my favorite websites, www.ontheissues.org, we see deeper into what Barack Hussein Obama has planned for our great nation. For, in Illinois, he was a notorious supporter of abortion. Even partial-birth abortion.

This next portion is very graphic, but necessary, to try and show you just how horrific partial-birth abortion is. It is called “partial-birth” abortion for just that reason…it is partial birth. The baby has reached a phase, in the third trimester usually, where it could sustain itself, were it given the opportunity. Read this next part from www.abortioninfo.net.

“In September, 1993, Brenda Pratt Shafer, a registered nurse with thirteen years or (sic) experience, was assigned by her nursing agency to an abortion clinic. Since Nurse Shafer considered herself ‘very pro-choice,’ she didn't think this assignment would be a problem. She was wrong. This is what Nurse Shafer saw:
‘ I stood at the doctor's side and watched him perform a partial-birth abortion on a woman who was six months pregnant. The baby's heartbeat was clearly visible on the ultrasound screen. The doctor delivered the baby's body and arms, everything but his little head. The baby's body was moving. His little fingers were clasping together. He was kicking his feet. The doctor took a pair of scissors and inserted them into the back of the baby's head, and the baby's arms jerked out in a flinch, a startle reaction, like a baby does when he thinks that he might fall. Then the doctor opened the scissors up. Then he stuck the high-powered suction tube into the hole and sucked the baby's brains out. Now the baby was completely limp. I never went back to the clinic. But I am still haunted by the face of that little boy. It was the most perfect, angelic face I have ever seen.’

And there it is. There is what Barack Hussein Obama, and millions of other liberal “Americans,” want to allow to happen to our future. How despicable is that? Twice, as an Illinois senator, Obama voted to allow these types of abortions. All because the baby might have been an inconvenience to the parent(s).

Getting back to ontheissues.org:

Q: What us your view on the decision on partial-birth abortion and your reaction to most of the public agreeing with the court's holding?

A: I think that most Americans recognize that this is a profoundly difficult issue for the women and families who make these decisions. They don't make them casually. And I trust women to make these decisions in conjunction with their doctors and their families and their clergy. And I think that's where most Americans are. Now, when you describe a specific procedure that accounts for less than 1% of the abortions that take place, then naturally, people get concerned, and I think legitimately so. But the broader issue here is: Do women have the right to make these profoundly difficult decisions? And I trust them to do it. There is a broader issue: Can we move past some of the debates around which we disagree and can we start talking about the things we do agree on? Reducing teen pregnancy; making it less likely for women to find themselves in these circumstances.

M.R.O. says this is just stupid, but typical. There is a method here folks. What he doesn’t say here is that he wants abortion made available to minors, without the girl’s parents’ knowledge or consent. Now here’s the kicker. If the federal government does what Barack Hussein Obama wants and does not get involved in this issue, partial-birth abortion will be available to our children without our knowledge or consent. That is the stupid part.

Now for the typical part: If you notice, Sen. Barack Hussein Obama minimizes the issue by saying, “Now, when you describe a specific procedure that accounts for less than 1% of the abortions …” Well, Mr. Obama, according to the site, abortionfacts.com, “The Alan Guttmacher Institute, a branch of Planned Parenthood, aggressively contacts hospitals and known abortionists, and the result is a more accurate and larger figure, which we use.”

They say that the Guttmacher Institute says that, in the 1990’s, there were an average of 1.55 million abortions per year. Taking Barack Hussein Obama’s stats at face value, one percent, that would mean that 15,500 VIABLE babies were murdered each year! That is almost forty-three PER DAY!

So one typical liberal tactic used was to minimize the damage, give a percentage rather than the actual staggering number. But the second typical liberal tactic is to change the subject. Notice that Obama acknowledges that it happens, but then quickly says, “Can we move past some of the debates around which we disagree and can we start talking about the things we do agree on?” What’s the problem, Mr. Barack Hussein Obama, is it getting a little warm in that hot seat?

This article is becoming a book. And I already have one of those due out in the next couple of months. By the way, have I mentioned that it is called “Mr. Right Opinion-Unplugged and Unashamed: one man’s views during perilous times in America’s history?” I have? Oh, sorry to bother you again, then. But it is published by AuthorHouse, and will be available at: http://www.51756.authorworld.com/ or you can go to Authorhouse.com and search for Michael A. Minton, and order there.

Anyway, you see where Mr. Barack Hussein Obama wants to lead us. You see how little he values life. I mean, we could discuss when life begins all day long. I say at conception, others argue that it starts at various points along the pregnancy path. But I defy anyone with any amount of intellect at all to tell me that a baby that could survive if not killed is not a human life.

I thought I would share with my readers who might not have time to investigate all of these things what the media, and even some fellow politicians, are saying about Barack Hussein Obama.

They Said It! CBS On Barack Obama's State Senate Record

CBS' Dean Reynolds: "From votes for abortion rights, to lessening penalties for marijuana use, to raising doubts about capital punishment, Obama is a traditional liberal."

*Are you starting to notice a pattern here? And this is just ONE issue among many! And these are not conservative hawks talking. For the most part, they are part of the liberal media. But wait…there’s more:

OBAMA'S BUSINESS TAX PLAN IMPOSES A SIGNIFICANT TAX BURDEN

Obama's Tax Proposal For Businesses Favors Employers That Fulfill "The Fondest Big Labor Agenda." "Mr. Obama's proposal would designate certain companies as 'patriot employers' and favor them over other, presumably not so patriotic, businesses. ... In other words, a patriotic employer is one which fulfills the fondest Big Labor agenda, regardless of the competitive implications. The proposal ignores the marketplace reality that businesses hire a work force they can afford to pay and still make money. Coercing companies into raising wages and benefits above market rates may only lead to fewer workers getting hired in the first place."

Obama's Proposal Penalizes Most American Companies That Have Subsidiaries Abroad With "A Big Tax Increase." "Under Mr. Obama's plan, 'patriot employers' qualify for a 1% tax credit on their profits. To finance this tax break, American companies with subsidiaries abroad would have to pay the U.S. corporate tax on profits earned abroad, rather than the corporate tax of the host country where they are earned. Since the U.S. corporate tax rate is 35%, while most of the world has a lower rate, this amounts to a big tax increase on earnings owned abroad. Put another way, U.S. companies would suddenly have to pay a higher tax rate than their Chinese, Japanese and European competitors."

OBAMA'S PROPOSALS WOULD HURT SMALL BUSINESS

Obama's Plans For Health Care And Social Security Would Burden Small Businesses:

Obama's Health Care Proposal Includes "A New Tax On Small Businesses That Don't Provide Health Care To Their Employees." "[Obama] is calling for the tax cuts pushed by President Bush to expire in 2010 for upper-income earners -- an effective tax hike for more than 1 million taxpayers -- and is proposing a new tax on small businesses that don't provide health care to their employees."
Rick Klein, "No Lip Service: Dems Trade Higher Taxes For Social Programs," ABCNews.com, 5/29/07

Obama's Plan To Raise Payroll Taxes To Fund Social Security Would Hurt Small Business Owners Who Create Two Of Every Three New Jobs. "Lost in Obama's calculations is that many of the people who would be affected by eliminating the earnings cap are small-business owners who employ more than half the nonfarm private-sector work force and create two of every three new jobs in this country."

"Taxes would also be raised on 3 million small-business owners. By fiscal 2015, the number of job opportunities lost would exceed 865,000 and personal savings would decline by more than $55 billion."
Editorial, "Caps Off For Obama," Investor's Business Daily, 9/25/07

FLASHBACK: In The Illinois State Senate, Obama Was Criticized For Not Being On The Side Of Small Business.

Richard E. Cohen, "Left To Right," National Journal, 3/2/07

OK, that’s enough stats for now. But, my fellow Opinionators, you see where this is going, right? Barack Hussein Obama makes Ted Kennedy look like Newt Gingrich! He is, I dare say, a socialist to the extreme, bordering on being a Communist. Is this really the direction in which we want our country to go? I think not.

Just think about it, you have media outlets like the Associated Press, CBS, ABCNews.com, U.S. New and World Report, Las Vegas Review-Journal, and the Washington Post coming out with these types of observations. Folks, these are hardly right-wing media outlets. If the liberal press is speaking this poorly about Barack Hussein Obama, just imagine how bad the truth must be!

I would like to thank the researchers at RNC for compiling this list of quotes.

Until next time--
