Isn’t it kind of bizarre that Stanley Kurtz comes up with evidence that Obama actually has had about two years of experience, managing the financial administration of the $50 million Chicago Annenberg Challenge, thus adding a new dimension to his record, and Obama’s camp hollers “No way. That’s lie.” and tries to get a government agency to shut Kurtz down. Trying to restrict fredom of speeech used to be considered an assault on one of our most basic freedoms. Not to socialists like Obama and his Chicago machine supporters.

From the outset this gang has displayed incredibly bad judgment.
How could supposedly smart political strategists launch a campaign for the Presidency without KNOWING, from day one, that their candidate’s past was in the public record, and that Uncle Jerry, Biuddy Bill Ayers,and the Annenberg Challenge disaster were all certain to be dug up. And then, after the success of the primaries,parade him over the middle east and Europe as a shoo-in!

Gore. Kerry. Obama. What a parlay. The Dems are sure impressing the voters on how good they are at picking losers.
