Three of Four Debates in the Books: What Have We Learned?

Record numbers of American voters tuned in to the three debates, proving only two things. Americans are very concerned about the future of their nation and they want to know more about the two tickets running for the highest office in the land.
What we have learned so far...
Modern debates are designed to hide facts, not provide facts.
It’s a mistake to allow only left-wing Democrats like Jim Lehrer, Gwen Ifill and Tom Brokaw, to control the most important debates of our generation.
Style trumps substance for too many Americans.
We need an electric hot plate under the debate stage to shock the candidates every time they lie. Mr. Obama would look more like Mr. Bojangles.
The many differences between McCain and Obama are nightmarishly stark!
Despite all of the left-wing efforts to keep American voters in the dark about this election and the truth behind the two people seeking the office of Commander-in-Chief, we have learned a few more important things watching these debates...
One presidential candidate has a life filled with unparalleled service to this country. And the other has a clear record of serving only his personal political ambitions, at any cost.
One candidate has demonstrated a willingness to tell the truth, even when it didn’t serve his party or his career. The other has seldom been caught in the company of truth and has spent the last few years running from his past.
One candidate is proud of everything he has done in his long and distinguished life of real achievement. The other does not want to open his college files, deliver a simple birth certificate or discuss any of his life long friends and radical left-wing associates.
One is a real-life American hero. The other is only a “Messiah” in his own mind, with a blank résumé and a list of personal references that nobody is allowed to talk to or about.
One is feared and respected by America’s enemies. The other is supported by America’s enemies.
One is from the old school of common decency, where facts matter and even those who don’t deserve it, are afforded a certain level of statesmen-like decorum in a public forum. The other is a punk kid with no manners and no relationship with the facts.
We have learned that one of these two things is true about Barack Hussein Obama
Option 1 – He is telling the truth when he says...
I got married, baptized my children and raised my family for TWENTY years in Rev. Jeremiah Wright’s church of radical anti-American racism and never once noticed it was a radical left-wing racist church.
I was brought to Chicago after Columbia by William Ayers and trained to be a community rabble-rouser. Worked with him for years, partnered with him, sat on numerous organization boards with him, embezzled $100 million from the Annenberg Challenge with him and never knew that he was the most infamous homegrown terrorist in all of Chicago history.
I paid my way through college with “help from friends” but never bothered to ask who those friends were or what their motives might have been.
Don Warden (aka Dr. Khalid Al Mansour), Tony Rezko, Rev. Wright, Percy Sutton, William Ayers and many others are known left-wing “community organizing” thugs who all know me well enough to help advance my political career, including launching it in the living room of Weatherman terrorist William Ayers. But I know nothing about any of them.
Even though I have lived abroad, attended school abroad and used a name other than my own to travel the Middle East on a foreign passport, I am an American citizen. But I won’t release my official birth certificate. Instead, I’ll pay a team of lawyers thousands of dollars to file motions to hold off an investigation until after the election.
I was deeply involved with ACORN, known for its special brand of “community organizing” – namely voter fraud, forcing good lenders to make failed loans leading to today’s financial crisis, and accepting millions in questionable campaign donations. And they are still the “community organizing” arm of my voter fraud campaign today. But I had nothing to do with ACORN or the financial disaster they promoted with my help.
I hired three of the most corrupt individuals involved in the Fannie and Freddie crisis to provide economic advice to me and my campaign, until you all figured that out. Then I fired them and now I know nothing about them. So what if they call me “family.”
We can go on and on here. These are just a few from the dirty laundry list of Obama statements which make no sense. If he is indeed telling the truth in all of these cases, he is the dumbest individual ever to walk the face of this planet erect.
Option 2 – He’s a very talented bold faced liar!
Three debates, moderated by three well-known left-wing Democrats, have taken place and regardless of their overt efforts to provide cover for Mr. Obama’s radical life of ill-advised associations, his nuanced incoherent lies and empty résumé, the American voter can still draw the right conclusions on the basis of information Obama refuses to provide.
However, CBS has finally separated themselves from the lamestream left and reported a truth that has been circulating only in the New Media for months now. “More Bogus Obama Donors Surface”
Despite their obvious disagreement on Abortion rights, L.A. NOW Chairman Shelly Mandell has joined a growing cast of traditional Democrat voters who are endorsing John McCain and Sarah Palin for the White House, putting their country before their special interest agendas.
PUMA Party (Party Unity My Ass) is an organization of Hillary Clinton Democrats angered by Obama’s hijacking of their Democrat Party and Hillary’s all-but-certain nomination.
They are strongly supporting McCain-Palin, in part because the DNC is clearly no longer the “party of the people” but rather the party of intellectual socialist elites like Obama and party chairman Howard Dean. They also recognize that Sarah Palin represents the same “shattering of the glass ceiling” that Hillary represented.
When it comes to John McCain, few people in America are better known or more trusted. That’s because few have ever given more for their country.
But when it comes to Barack Obama, a self-proclaimed American with a foreign passport and without a birth certificate, a professed “Christian” from a denounced racist church who happens to have an Arab Muslim name, who wants his entire past to be “off-limits” in his run for the highest office in the land, the list of what we don’t know is much longer than the list of what we know.
In and of itself, this tells a very important story. People who hide their past always have a past worth hiding.
Once we knew that terrorists, international thugs and rogue regimes around the globe, with whom we are currently at war, supported Barack Hussein Obama for president, how much more do we really need to know?
Mr. Obama can continue to run from his past, claim ignorance of his many radical friends and keep his college records and birth certificate under lock and key from now until Doomsday, in his case November 4th, and it doesn’t matter a hoot.
What we already know should be plenty for any thinking individual.
And quite frankly, if America really has been dumbed down to a level when the most offensive obvious facts don’t matter anymore, then we deserve whatever comes next!
We haven’t learned much from the debates designed to bury the truth... But we know what we need to know.
No candidate is perfect, especially John McCain. But thank God he’s a man of few words and many great deeds. His opponent is a man of many words and no history of pro-American deeds.
