More For Obama

posted by on October 13 at 9:49 AM

Obama support from the world of science:

At the press conference, Martin Chalfie said that the first thing he did after winning the [2008 Nobel Prize in Chemistry] was call up a friend who had previously won a Nobel Prize, to see how he too could get his name on a list of Nobel Prize laureates who support Barack Obama.

From the ancient world of organized religion:

A 106-year-old American nun living in a convent in Rome could well be one of the oldest voters to cast a ballot in the 2008 US Presidential election.

Sister Cecilia Gaudette, who last voted for President Eisenhower in 1952, has registered to vote and says she will vote for Democrat Barack Obama.


And, finally, support from the core of the Palin clan:

WASILLA, Alaska - Sarah Palin’s hometown rallied around her as mayor - now Republicans wonder if the rest of America will warm up to the surprise pick from cold country.

Though her mother-in-law has doubts.

Faye Palin admitted she enjoys hearing Barack Obama speak, and still hasn’t decided which way she’ll vote.

One definitely gets the impression there's not a lot of love lost between the Palins, Heaths, Johnstons, and assorted other hillbilly families up there.

Please taken some time out from your worship of The Annointed One to read this important brilliance from The Great One, Mark Levin:

http://corner.nationalreview.com/post/?q=ZjUxNDZkMGU4YTZhNTFmNzZhNjdkZmJlZGYzM2JhNGM=

"Re ACORN, Jeremiah Wright, Bill Ayers, Bernadine Dohrn, Frank Marshal Davis, Khalid Abdullah Tariq al-Mansour, Rashid Khalidi, Raila Odinga, and all of the assorted leftists and figures of ambiguous or veiled allegiance that form an unbroken chain throughout Obama's life, it is not a question of "palling around." It is a question of shared worldview. The only candidate who has surrounded himself with and befriended a freak show of racists, anti-Semites, and America haters is Barack Obama. This isn't guilt by association. These are Obama's life experiences. And you'd think it would be more problematic than a few people in an audience shouting out some nasty things about Obama."

We must stop this traitorous Muslim Marxist, or you can kiss the America I served in Vietnam goodbye.
