OhPruneJuice goes YouTubeing

Yes, I made the plunge. I created my first YouTube video. Hopefully, more are on the way.

My first attempt was inspired by Jay Leno. Ordinarily, I like Jay. He is one funny dOOd. However, recently, he had Senator Biden on and he was talking about Joe the Plumber. He said that he thought people probably were more afraid of plumbers than they are of terrorists.

I thought, "Now, that was really dumb. That totally distorts reality and could be used by Senator Obama to avoid serious issues and win the election.

Please, excuse my editing job. It was the very first time I did anything like this. If you would, spread it around to people you think could use it.

Anyway, here is my first video ever and my YouTube page:



By the way, OH PRUNE JUICE!!!

Plumber Investigated More Than Presidential Candidate

This has REALLY bothered me ever since Joe the Plumber has asked Senator Obama his question. Joe was just an average guy, but once he inadvertently embarrassed the good Senator from Illinois, his fate was decided. Joe must be dealt with. Whether it was because the Obama campaign needed to distract the voters (so they wouldn't focus on the Senator's response) or it was merely meant as punishment, Joe's life was turned inside out for all of the world to see.

On the other hand, Senator Obama has several very troubling relationships that the voters are told we really don't need to know about. Issues like Williams Ayers, Jeremiah Wright, ACORN, Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, etc., etc., etc. Naw, that's trivial stuff. What do you think he's doing? Running for the highest office in the country -- or in the world??? Naw, we don't need to know anything really.

Anyway. here is a piece by Pam Meister titled, "Joe the Plumber Vetted More Thoroughly Than Obama".

Obama did not write "Dreams From My Father"

Jack Cashilll writes:

The emergence of a previously unseen writing sample proves all but conclusively that Barack Obama did not in any meaningful way write Dreams From My Father, the book that Time Magazine has called “the best-written memoir ever produced by an American politician.”

The emergence of a second writing sample, this one by a legitimate author, provides convincing evidence as to who did.

Read his piece to find out who Cashill believes actually wrote Senator Obama's book.

Jack also was intervied on a local radio show and he had this to say.

Go to the Jerry Agar page | Listen to the short interview

Almost everyone I know says how eloquent Senator is, how well he speaks, and how well he writes. We have known for quite some time that David Axelrod has been helping him write his speeches, etc. However, people are now questioning whether or not Senator Obama authored his own books.

Read why Jack Cashill believes that there is reason to doubt that Senator Obama actually wrote his books.

Who is this Ayers guy anyway?

It's easy to be swayed by the spin that Senator Obama's supporters create for our consumption. A lot of us weren't even around in the 60s and 70s when the United States experienced tremendous turmoil.

A lot of us never even heard the other side's perspective either. When we hear people talk about the 60s, we think about hippies who just wanted to live in peace with everyone. We think about people who just wanted to be free to do their own thing. "Free love." "Make love, not war." "Flower power." We think of people using psychedelic drugs intended to bring about mind-blowing "religious experiences".

Harmless stuff, mostly. At least, we say, those activities really don't harm anyone who doesn't chose to live that way. It doesn't harm anyone else.

When we hear this stuff about Senator Obama being connected somehow with Bill Ayers, our response might be, "What's the big deal? I don't even know who this Ayers guy is anyway." I think that if you do take the time to actually find out, you definitely won't be thinking that any more.

I hope you do watch this YouTube video. It is made up of both old and new video clips of news footage and interviews.



The thing that a lot of us are asking is this. Are you sure that you can trust Senator Obama's judgment? Really, are you?

Who Did You Know, Sen. Obama, and When Did You Know Them?

In a thought-provoking piece, Frank Salvato writes:

We have heard the names of the people on the list of radicals and ne’er-do-wells that Barack Obama says he knows but doesn’t know; has worked with but hasn’t worked with; has taken money from but hasn’t taken money from. . . .

While it is legitimate to question whether it demonstrates good judgment to associate with such decidedly radical ideologues, it is more important to understand whether or not Sen. Obama has been influenced – at any point in his life – by any of these people.

Read the whole piece. It will be well worth your time.

IBD: Obama's Real Problem With Ayers

The October 7th's Investor's Business Daily has an interesting take on Senator Obama's connection with William Ayers.

At an education forum in Venezuela, Bill Ayers showed the real issue is not his terrorist past. It's the socialist revolutionary agenda that he and Barack Obama want to impose on the nation's schools.

Obama and Ayers Pushed Radicalism On Schools

In the Wall Street Journal dated SEPTEMBER 23th, 2008, there is an op-ed piece titled, "Obama and Ayers Pushed Radicalism On Schools". Stanley Kurtz writes:

Despite having authored two autobiographies, Barack Obama has never written about his most important executive experience. From 1995 to 1999, he led an education foundation called the Chicago Annenberg Challenge (CAC), and remained on the board until 2001. The group poured more than $100 million into the hands of community organizers and radical education activists.

Why doesn't Senator Obama want to talk about this period of his life? Read the full piece in the WSJ.
