Do you think Obama laying low to keep the media's attention off his questionable associations?

Question

Obama was awfully quick to move families and children off the table in light of all the accusations aimed at Gov Palin. Just back in July he was parading his family in front of the media, and even had his children interviewed on 'Access Hollywood'. Suddenly he is 'Mr. Stick to the issues'. It seems he certainty wants to distance himself from this.

Do you think that maybe he is a little concerned about the media feeding frenzy over Gov. Palin. When she survives it without resorting to flip-flopping, 'clarifying' her position or complaining that she is being treated unfairly. They might turn on him and start asking about the questions he has never really answered. Such as what were his past associations with Bill Ayres, Tony Rezko, Rev. Wright and assorted others really all about?

Answer 1

He is staying low, but all that info will come out.

http://www.discoverthenetworks.org/indiv...

Obama was trained by the Saul Alinsky-founded Industrial Areas Foundation (IAF) in Chicago. (The Developing Communities Project itself was an affiliate of the Gamaliel Foundation, whose modus operandi for the creation of "a more just and democratic society" is rooted firmly in the Alinsky method.) Alinsky was known for helping to establish the aggressive political tactics that characterized the 1960s and have remained central to all subsequent revolutionary movements in the United States.

In the Alinsky model, "organizing" is a euphemism for "revolution" -- a wholesale revolution whose ultimate objective is the systematic acquisition of power by a purportedly oppressed segment of the population, and the radical transformation of America's social and economic structure. The goal is to foment enough public discontent, moral confusion, and outright chaos to spark the social upheaval that Marx, Engels, and Lenin predicted -- a revolution whose foot soldiers view the status quo as fatally flawed and wholly unworthy of salvation

Answer 2

Every republican is complaining that she is being treated unfairly and that there is media bias.  I don't understand this because she is under investigation for abuse of power.  How is questioning her claims of morality wrong considering she is under investigation.

Answer 3

The Obama-Biden Ticket couldn't create such a scandalous mess. Any wise politician knows when your opponent is burring himself stay clear.  

Answer 4

Those associations are nothing compared to his blood relation to the Bush & Cheney family:

The Bushes are long-time close friends and business partners with the bin Ladens, and I find it very odd that nobody seems to be worried about that.

Answer 5

Is that all you got? All of these have been laughed off long ago. But since you obviously had your head in the sand I will make it as clear for you as I can.

Bill Ayres

Ok. So when Obama was like 9 years old, Ayres carried out poorly planned terrorist attacks. Obviously Obama was a big contributor to those attacks since he was 9. If you know anything about Ayers, you will know that he got his act together and became a college professor. He has become one of the most highly respected Chicago residents.

Tony Rezko

Wow so Obama made a friend, and that friend turned out to be a crook.  Does that mean that Obama is a crook too? I guess if someone has a very small brain then the answer is yes Obama is a crook too.

Jeremiah Wright

I am so glad you have brought up Rev. Wright. If you know anything about the Trinity church, you would know that it has been broadcasted on Chicago public television for years. Any attempts to associate this church with radicalism is nothing more than lowlife GOP smear.

Scroll about halfway down the page. Notice the article is from January. Are you seriously that out of touch? Next time I hope you can come up with something that has a little bit of substance.

Answer 6

he doesnt want people asking why his henchmen are tearing into palin.

he has been making statements all day though saying he runs a campaign and that is more experience that she has. LOLOL

David alexrod runs his campaign.

if obama is elected, will Alexrod be the real president?

Answer 7

Questionable associations? McCain has Bush.  That's questionable enough to vote for Obama.

Answer 8

Perhaps Republicans in glass houses should not be so quick to throw stones at Obama.

How about McCain's ties to the Mafia - with Joesph "Joe Bananas " Bonano . New York Crime Boss.

Answer 9

How much coverage has the media given his associations anyway.  Very little to wright and rezko and pretty much none on ayers.

Much of the media is on teh Obama bandwagon and wouldnt want to discredit their chosen one.

Answer 10

He's thanking the Jihadists that's not him.......or the media, same thing.

Answer 11

I think he's just thanking his lucky stars that he's not associated to Palin. d**n what a freak show she's created. Not even wright did that to him.  

Answer 12

a-ha..interesting observation. perhaps senor obama has some juicy skeletons in the closet??

muhahahahahhahaha

Answer 13

that and his mamma was 17 when pregnant with him.and joe bidens son also under investigation for credit card scams his dear old dad was involved in.you didn't think he said hands off the kids because he cared did you?

Answer 14

I am so not an Obama Supporter but this is one thing I think he was right on. Leave the kids out of it. It is no ones business LET THE KIDS ALONE!!!!

Answer 15

Does he have questionable associations?

Answer 16

Brevity is the soul of wit.  Good luck with your next rant, pork chop.

Answer 17

The day after the Access Hollywood interview he said that it was a mistake and that he wanted family left out of the race.  This wasn't just after Palin was chosen as the VP.  Please get your facts straight.

Answer 18

His supporters need to bash Palin and her daughter to divert attention from the fact that Obama is an America hating racist ex-crackhead Marxist.  Quotes from his phony religion prove my point.

“To be Christian is to be one of those whom God has chosen. God has chosen black people!”

"Malcolm X was not far wrong when he called the white man 'the devil."

"complete emancipation of black people from white oppression by whatever means black people deem necessary."

"The time has come for white America to be silent and listen to black people"

"All white men are responsible for white oppression"

"There is, then, a desperate need for a black theology, a theology whose sole purpose is to apply the freeing power of the gospel to black people under white oppression."

"Black theology refuses to accept a God who is not identified totally with the goals of the black community. If God is not for us and against white people, then he is a murderer, and we had better kill him. The task of black theology is to kill Gods who do not belong to the black community. Black theology will accept only the love of God which participates in the destruction of the white enemy. What we need is the divine love as expressed in Black Power, which is the power of black people to destroy their oppressors here and now by any means at their disposal. Unless God is participating in this holy activity, we must reject his love."

"While it is true that blacks do hate whites, black hatred is not racism."

"If there is any contemporary meaning of the Antichrist, the white church seems to be a manifestation of it."

Answer 19

What is up with you? If Obama is all over the news, you complain. If he is laying low, you still complain. Geez... whiners.

Answer 20

Without a doubt..Once you start picking on one parties children it's open season on the other parties children.  He doesn't like that idea and I don't blame him.

Answer 21

The Media, OUR SO CALLED MEDIA, should have, could have questioned all of Obama's associations before now.  Unless we as voters DEMAND they do so, you will never hear what actually was/is/present.  Disgusting to say the least.  The Media has fooled us all.  Some even drink both Obama's and the Media's messiah kool aid.  NO THANK YOU.

Answer 22

Giving a speech before 80,000 people is laying low?

Pretty much every Presidential candidate has taken a stance that their families, especially their minor children, not be subjected to the mud-slinging of presidential campaigns.  Its hard enough for these great people who run for office, imagine the tribulations through which you would put innocent children.

Lay off the kids.

Besides, there is enough controversy just looking at Palin's political escapades to keep us entertained for for at least nine more weeks.

Answer 23

The liberal media has completely given him a pass, they fawn all over the guy who has no experience what so ever to be the POTUS.

Answer 24

McCain  is associated with Bush an big oil which means hes associated with Bin Laden an all his big oil family that sit down an eat dinner with the bush family twice a month.  

Answer 25

When you're opponents are slowly killing themselves, the best thing to do is sit back and let them.
