GOPUSA ILLINOIS Daily Clips - October 6, 2008
Only 29 days until the election!
DIERSEN: Obama is far more anti-Republican than Gore, Kerry, or either Clinton. Illinois Republicans are increasingly disappointed with the softness toward Obama that many Illinois Republican Party leaders, many Illinois Republican elected officials, many Illinois Republican candidates, and many Illinois "conservative leaders" are showing. The more that you do to advance the Republican Party platform, the more that Democrats call you a racist. If being called a racist by Democrats causes you to pull back, then you lack what it takes to advance the Republican Party platform. If you think that Obama and his supporters will reward you for being soft on him, you are sadly mistaken.

I walked the one mile distance to the school until the fall of 1964 when I had earned and saved enough money doing yard work to buy a 1958 Chevy. By the spring of 1966, I had earned and saved enough money washing dishes in the basement of the S.S. Kresges in Chicago Heights that I bought a brand new 1966 Pontiac Tempest Sprint. I then used that car to commute to the University of Illinois at Chicago that now outrageously employees that unrepentant terrorist Ayers.)

-- WILLIAM KRISTOL: "I pointed out (TO PALIN) that Obama surely had a closer connection to the Rev. Jeremiah Wright than to Ayers - and so, I asked, if Ayers is a legitimate issue, what about Reverend Wright? She didn’t hesitate: “To tell you the truth, Bill, I don’t know why that association isn’t discussed more, because those were appalling things that that pastor had said about our great country, and to have sat in the pews for 20 years and listened to that - with, I don’t know, a sense of condoning it, I guess, because he didn’t get up and leave - to me, that does say something about character. But, you know, I guess that would be a John McCain call on whether he wants to bring that up.” I guess so. And I guess we’ll soon know McCain’s call on whether he wants to bring Wright up - perhaps at his debate with Obama Tuesday night."
