From Little Green Footballs: Obama’s Skeletons, A List

May 14th, 2008 | By E.D. Kain | Category: Politics, Economics, & Public Policy

I read this list over at Little Green Footballs today.  It’s a pretty good breakdown of the many less-than-above-board affiliations Mr. Obama has with some pretty anti-Israel characters around the country, including professors, pastors, and advisers.  As much as I’d like to believe that Obama will bring change that is good for America, I think he’ll be more of a foreign policy disaster than anything else.

So read the list and judge for yourself.  Do we really want someone with this sort of character-judgment in the white house?  Carter was bad enough, do we really need another Jimmy?

Here’s a quick run-down of some of Barack Obama’s questionable and disturbing associations:

* Rabidly anti-Israel Columbia University professor Rashid Khalidi. The Obamas were regular dinner guests at Khalidi’s Hyde Park home for years.

* Terrorist sympathizer Ali Abunimah, who runs the viciously anti-Israel web site Electronic Intifada.

* Unrepentant Weather Underground terrorists William Ayers and Bernadine Dohrn.

* Reverend Jeremiah Wright. What more needs to be said?

* Anti-Israel foreign policy adviser Samantha Power — fired after calling Hillary Clinton a “monster.”

* Anti-Israel foreign policy adviser Robert Malley — fired when it was revealed he has been holding talks with Hamas.

* Hatem El-Hady, former official of the Hamas-linked charity Kindhearts, closed by the Justice Department. El-Hady’s web page suddenly vanished from the Obama campaign site with no explanation, after being exposed by LGF and others.

* Tony Rezko — a Chicago fixer currently in a whole lot of legal trouble.

There are more, I know; this is just off the top of my head.

I have never witnessed a presidential election in which a major candidate had this many skeletons in his closet.
