Thanks but we can all read the rhetoric on his fight-the-smears page:
--------------------------------------
Furthermore, if you read the entire LA Times article, Obama is all over the Palestinian-Israeli map. Whatever is expedient to his political success at the time is where he appears to stand. Perhaps Obama HAS seen little of Khalidi in recent years, but it's obvious that their relationship has been strong and probably remains so. Only a STRONG supporter would host a fundraiser for a congressional bid. And as Obama sat on the board of the Woods Fund of Chicago, they just happened to grant $40k to Mona Khalidi's social-service group. Additionally, Michelle Obama attended a party several months ago celebrating the marriage of the Khalidis' daughter. Naturally, Obama would stay away - too risky.
The coup de grāce, however, is the fact that
Obama spent 20 years in a church where anti-Israel rhetoric was present and preached from the pulpit. Whether Obama is cunning, intellectually naive, or just dishonest, it's unimaginable, to me, that any COG/TF ex-member could support Obama knowing what I thought that we all knew about cults and their deceptions.
