"A certain segment has basically been feeding a kind of xenophobia. There's a reason why hate crimes against Hispanic people doubled last year. If you have people like Lou Dobbs and Rush Limbaugh ginning things up, it's not surprising that would happen." --Barack Obama, Palm Beach fundraiser, May 22, 2008.
The presumptive Democratic nominee for president needs to be more careful in his use of statistics. If he is going to blame Lou Dobbs and Rush Limbaugh for "ginning up" hate crimes against Hispanics, he needs solid data to back up his allegation. The hate crimes statistics that he threw around at a fundraiser in Florida are wildly inaccurate--and a subsequent modified claim provided by his campaign was also off the mark.

The author notes that this is not the first time Obama cites bogus numbers (he said 1000 people had died in a Kansas tornado which took 12 lives).
Another lie by Barack Hussein Obama. Stupid.
I presume this is the same old 'clinging to their guns and religion' segment.


THE AUDACITY OF TRUTH ABOUT BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA
Those wild eyed people represent the millions of Americans raised in the government day-care and indoctrination centers we call public schools who did not have, or would not listen to, parents and others who tried to counterweight the garbage they heard at school...who have been raised on 60 second sound bite time spans and know no better.
You have other tens of millions on the dole who will vote for him regardless of position because he promises to keep pilfering the public largess for them.
Still othes of millions will vote for him simply because he is black.
Other millions will vote for him because they know exactly who he is and what he represents and agree with his anti-American positions.
The first three are all what is termed, useful idiots, a term coined by Lenin for the dupes he got to support him.
Against this it is left to us to educate, arouse, and amass the tens of millions of Americans who understand and hold fast to the foundational principles our constitutional republic rests upon...many of them the bitter, rural Americans clinging to their guns and religion that Obama so arrogantly spoke of.
Regardless, one issue that has not been given a lot of airing is the number of "hate crimes" against African-Americans committed by Hispanics - which, if I'm not mistaken, has been increasing.
If I remember right he said 10,000 people died in Kansas tornados.
...his life is one perpetual stream of lies...what’s one more?
The MSM will “be needin’ to do a lot of coverin’ up” for this dangerous idiot.
I actually think he said 10,000. I may be wrong. He follows the Marxist rulebook to a T. If you’re going to tell a lie, make it a big one. Plus he knows he wont get called on it by MSM.
No, he pulled them from the posterior part of his anatomy.
So he will be playing into everyone’s prejudices, self-loathing, white guilt, and pre-conceived notions - and facts be damned. And how few there will be who will call him on this - certainly not the media who created him.
Some leader.....right off the cliff.
I intend to write a list of ten items, similar to the contract with America. If Senator McCain agrees with them and makes a formal campaign promise to perform each one, then I will resume my previous activity as a hard working volunteer for our party, otherwise I will vote, but I will make no donations and do no election campaign work. What do you think this list of items should contain? Thanks
OK...so this leaves us with...McCain?
I call them the “Obamanation”
Good points all.
Doubled? From what, perhaps six "hate crimes," to maybe twelve? I'd be interested in hearing him quote the absolute number of such crimes which have been reported.
Well, considering the rapid rise in the number of illegal aliens in our country, I suppose that there might be some basis to that.
But then again, how does he define "hate crimes?" Do they include verbal assaults?
I'd like to hear him cite, just once, the statistics pertaining to the increase in crimes committed by illegal aliens.
All in all, another example of fuzzy thinking,combined with race-baiting.
Regards,
Blood libel, old as the hills.
Even though I often agree with them, Dobbs always looks like he needs some metamucil pronto.
This the same that most of these race baiters and multiculturalist have been doing all along. Either misquoting and outright lying or selectively choosing the statistics they use. In addition they chastise white people for stereotyping then turn right around and condemn all whites. Of course the press has been complicit in much of it too.

Lets not forget, Obama's America has 57 states. You probably are not counting those deaths in those other 7 states.
“This the same that most of these race baiters and multiculturalist have been doing all along. “
by Patrick J. Buchanan
In 2004, the voters of Arizona, by 56 percent to 44 percent, enacted Proposition 200, requiring proof of citizenship before an individual may vote or receive state benefits. Forty-six percent of Hispanics voted for Prop. 200, giving the lie to those who say Hispanics support the illegal invasion of their country.
Over 190,000 Arizonans petitioned to put Prop. 200 on the ballot. As it simply required proof of citizenship before receiving the benefits and privileges of citizenship, who could oppose it?
Answer: the entire GOP congressional delegation, led by Sen. John McCain.

In his comments to reporters Tuesday, McCain took on some of those in his party who call the bill amnesty.
“Anything short of rounding up 12 million people and deporting them is called amnesty by the opponents of this legislation,” he said. “I’ll point out that (illegal immigrants) will have to pay back taxes, they’ll have to pay a fine, they’ll have to go back to their country of origin, and it’s at least 15 years before they are in anyway eligible for citizenship.” (HE LIED)

Amy Goodman recently was pushing the BS story about unreported sexual assaultin in the army.
Obama’s ‘Not Exactly’s’:
1.) Selma Got Me Born - NOT EXACTLY, your parents felt safe enough to have you in 1961 - Selma had no effect on your birth, as Selma was in 1965. (Google ‘Obama Selma’ for his full March 4, 2007 speech and articles about its various untruths.)
2.) Father Was A Goat Herder - NOT EXACTLY, he was a privileged, well educated youth, who went on to work with the Kenyan Government.
3.) Father Was A Proud Freedom Fighter - NOT EXACTLY, he was part of one of the most corrupt and violent governments Kenya has ever had.
4.) My Family Has Strong Ties To African Freedom - NOT EXACTLY,
your
cousin Raila Odinga has created mass violence in attempting to overturn a legitimate election in 2007, in Kenya . It is the first widespread violence in decades. The current government is pro-American but Odinga wants to overthrow it and establish Muslim Sharia law. Your half-brother, Abongo Obama, is Odinga’s follower. You interrupted your New Hampshire campaigning to speak to Odinga on the phone. Check out the following link for verificat ion of that..and for more. Obama’s cousin Odinga in Kenya ran for president and tried to get Sharia muslim law in place there. When Odinga lost the elections, his followers have burned Christians’ homes and then burned men, women and children alive in a Christian church where they took shelter.. Obama SUPPORTED his cousin before the election process here started. Google Obama and Odinga and see what you get. No one wants to know the truth.
5.) My Grandmother Has Always BeenA Christian - NOT EXACTLY, she does her daily Salat prayers at 5 am according to her own interviews. Not to mention, Ch ristianity wouldn’t allow her to have been one of 14 wives to 1 man.
6.) My Name is African Swahili - NOT EXACTLY, your name is Arabic and
‘Baraka’ (from which Barack came) means ‘blessed’ in that language. Hussein is also Arabic and so is Obama Barack Hussein. Obama is not half black. If elected, he would be the first Arab-American President, not the first black President. Barack Hussein Obama is 50% Caucasian from his mother’s side and 43.75% Arabic and 6.25% African Negro from his father’s side. While Barack Hussein Obama’s father was from Kenya , his father’s family was mainly Arabs. Barack Hussein Obama’s father was only 12.5% African Negro and 87.5% Arab and (his father’s birth certificate even states he’s Arab, not African Negro). From....and for more....go to.....

Kristoff from the New York Times .. a year ago: Mr. Obama recalled the opening lines of the Arabic call to prayer, reciting them with a first-rate accent. In a remark that seemed delightfully uncalculated (it’ll give Alabama voters heart attacks), Mr. Obama descr ibed the call to prayer as ‘one of the prettiest sounds on Earth at sunset.’ This is just one example of what Pamela is talking about when she says ‘Obama’s narrative is being
altered, enhanced and manipulated to whitewash troubling facts.’

Beat you by 46 seconds. LOL! Great minds, anyway...
There are lies, damned lies, and statistics....
Then there are Obambi-statistics which are just pulled out of the a##
Obama is the kind of slovenly leftist who believe every bit of propaganda thrown about by the hatefest of leftist activist groups - of course he would not question whether “hate crimes” doubled (in all 57 states!!) or whether “10,000” people died in Kansas tornados..... he has no sense of accuracy, objectivity, or rigor. I have seen so many of these campus activist/community “organizer” frauds who just recite whatever nonsense they are spoon-fed by ACORN, Nader groups, etc.
and the other way around
“...and that is why we must SILENCE the HATE SPEECH by Limbaugh, Dobbs, Free Republic, and all other conservatives in order to achieve my vision of Groupthink...uh...um...I mean Unity! Remember, the culture wars are over, and I WON!!”
IMMIGRATION
1) Border fence (actual) augmented by virtual fence and National Guard. Let them train for fighting the Jihadists by rotating through border security.
2) Voluntary deportation policy. Illegals with no criminal record or terror ties who voluntarily deport will get positive consideration for guest worker or immigration requests. If we have to find them, they are banned for life (as are the criminals and terror linked).
3) Severely punish (crininally and with fines) businesses that hire illegal aliens outside of law.
ENERGY
4) Announce immediate drilling (by executive order if necessary as a matter of national security) in ANWR, off the West Coast, off the Gulf Coast, in the Rocky woith the Coal Shale, and elsewhere.
5) Announce immdediate building (by executive order if necessary as a matter of national security) of new oil refinieries and nuclear power plants (again by executive order if necessary) such that our fuel and electrical supplies are vouchsafed by domestic production capabilites.
6) Allow all federal funding of the Endangered Species Act to end. The act itself sunsetted some years ago but has been administratively continued. This one act is one of the greates roadblock and hinderances to energy production in this country.
FOREIGN POLICY
7) Give Iran 90 days to compy with international wishes regarding its nuclear plants, or have them, and the C&C face annihilation.
8) Remove the PRC from MFNS and inform them that unless and until their government makes specific humanitarian, personal freedom, and human rights changes that trade with them will be highly restricted.
MILITARY
9) Add back at least two divisions, two fighter wings, two bomber wings, two aircraft carrier strike groups, two amphibious assault groups, 10 SSBNs, and complete and deploy BMD, and the airborne laser.
ECONOMIC
10) Make the Bush tax cuts permanent and make further reductions in capital gains, inheritance, and corporate taxes.
...to start.
Wow, good list...I just sent it off to a bunch of folks.
Glad you mentioned Kansas, or I wouldn't know which of the "57 states" the tornado hit.
The word 'ilk' as used here has a pejorative connotation. It is completely inappropriate for a self-styled fact-checker to issue such subjective value judgments. Perhaps Michael Dobbs needs to fact-check himself. Unfortunately, it is par for the course from the Washington Post...
Great List!
O great Apostle of Hope and Change, what about the native-born blacks gunned down in LA, simply because of their race, by Hispanic gangsters? Are those “brothers” xenophobic, O great Hussein?
Like a liberal needs any kind of evidence to back up a claim. According to the the seriousness of the charge is good enough, that is, if it’s directed at anyone other than them.
It was so telling because it's what he learned as a kid. It's those early lessons like basic math and geography that are impossible to supplant in the subconscious.
If he red FR, he'd have known the May 22 stats were fake on May 23.
Obama: Limbaugh, Lou Dobbs Spur Latino Hate
What did you get in math Barry? There's no doubling here, rather about a 10% rise, a touch larger than the total increase. I believe the 2007 report comes out in November.

If it comes out of Obama's mouth, it's worth checking.
Thank you for your list. Too bad that the MSM doesn’t check this out. I guess they do but just don’t report it. Thanks again.
“The MSM will be needin to do a lot of coverin up for this dangerous idiot.”
They will. Count on it.
I am no Obama supporter, but a brief review of your web site, and comparison with the original source of its most inflammatory language, is very troubling ...
You state that James Cones book reads:
>>> 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.
You have deliberately misstated key parts of this:
The book does not read “against white people” - it reads “against white racists”
The book does not read “descruction of the white enemy” - it reads “destruction of the white oppressor”
And these are only two I found, I did not check ever bit of it. Both misquotes make big differences.
Even if your overall point is valid: Doing so by these flagrant misquotes from published and easily accessible text is disgusting.
I mistakenling attributed it to the book, A Black Theology for Liberation, wherein Cone makes a similar quote from which you quoted, and now have corrected that oversite on my site.
But the quote is real and is from Cone...and it is not me who is disgusting in the least, but author and the theology itself which so perverts the love of Christ into such a thing of hate, vengence, bigotry, and intolerance...the very antithesis of what Christ taught.
Thanks for the critique, it helped me correct a slight error...albeit it not in the way you judged.
I thought the second coming was incapable of lies just as Jesus was on HIS first trip around?
Check again, use your own link to the book on Amazon.com, and then do a search the contents of the book. The book itself shows your quote to be a misquote.
It would seem to me that the quote - taken from Cone’s own book, would be a better source for Cone, than someone else’s book purporting to quote the same text.....
