Each taken in isolation, any of Obama’s many alarming connections to racists, radical socialists, and terrorists could possibly be explained away, but if you can’t pull them all together and paint the  portrait of a Marxist subversive that you don’t want anywhere near the White House, then Claude Monet you’re not.  But Michelle, Rev. Wright, Bill Ayers and the rest have nothing on Kenyan opposition leader Raila Odinga, who wades in blood and enjoys the adulation of the Obamas.

The story of Obama’s association with his tribal relative Odinga is not a new one, but the powerful video is new.

Lots of authors have written the story with the disclaimer, “Obama may not be a Manchurian candidate, BUT . . .”  On the other hand, Obama may be a Manchurian candidate indeed, and his troubling connections to the slaughter in Kenya, and to the barbarian Marxist Odinga, do nothing to allay our fears.

We can take Barack Obama at his word when he says he’ll meet directly with Ahmadinejad, Kim Jong-il, Hugo Chavez, and Assad.

He knows his way around scum.

They said it was for our country, for vaccine . . . But I think they use it for something else.

Barack Obama has often professed his willingness and even apparent eagerness to sit down with Iran’s president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, affectionately known across the blogosphere as Monkey Man, to ruminate expressively on the common ground. Of course, anyone in possession of a worldview even millimeters short of psychotic realizes that the only such commonality with Monkey Man and his minions can be solely on the battleground. If you can’t see that the sawed-off little tough guy is feverishly preparing for war you just aren’t paying much attention.
