Here's a list of Obama's pro-war and pro-Bush administration record.

CNN: “Obama's voting record in 2007 establishes that he continues to be pro-war. On March 28, 2007 and March 29th, 2007, he voted for cloture and passage of a bill designed to give Bush over $120 billion to continue the occupation for years to come (with a suspendable time table) and inclusive of funding that could be used to launch a war with Iran. Roll calls 117 and 126 ...Obama's record shows a minimum of 20 major pro-war votes.”

“12/06/06: Obama voted to confirm pro-war Robert M. Gates to be Secretary of Defense. Gates is a supporter of Bush's policies of pre-emptive war and conquest of foreign countries. Roll Call 272 ”

In 2006 Obama lent his celebrity and political finance assistance to neoconservative war Senator Joe Lieberman’s (“D”-Connecticut) struggle against the Democratic antiwar insurgent Ned Lamont. Obama supported other mainstream Democrats fighting genuinely antiwar progressives in primary races, collaborating with Democratic muscle man Rahm Emannuel’s campaign to marginalize “peaceniks” within the party (see Sirota 2006, Silverstein 2006 and Cockburn 2006).

In a November 2005 speech to the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR), Obama rejected Rep. John Murtha’s (D-Pa.) call for a rapid redeployment and any notion of a timetable for withdrawal. Obama advocated “a pragmatic solution to the real war we’re facing in Iraq” and made repeated references to the need to “defeat” the “insurgency.” This language meant continuation of the war (Ford and Gamble 2005).

then what good is more evidence? Is he a socialist? Cause only someone who wants the state to take care of them can possibly support Obama... but if he believes in the 2nd ammendment... then let me know and I can send you something...

...burn their damn huts down.

and say: please at least watch these, and "if" it comes true and you find yourself down on your luck in a year or two that you will buy him a week's worth of food.

make it a win win for him.

and then let him decide.

what does the freedom movement gain if you convince this one person? if they're being stubborn move on. there are 10 more people out there starving for the truth. get to them and let them spread the truth to others.

in all honesty i hope McCain wins. only because i want all the CHANGE motherf***kers to have their hopes and dreams squashed on election day. i don't hear anyone running around claiming McCain is going to save us. and i know all these CHANGE believers are willing to give Obama a free ride for his first year why he "changes" things. i want none of that. i want to see them all cry when he loses the election. i want them to feel like us. although they sure as hell won't be as smart as us.

Some people are not ready to be truly free because it carries the weight of being unconditionally responsible.

Many are therefore easily coerced into accepting a higher authority to fix all their personal and political woes. How easy it is to then place blame for one's ills on a certain group and its figurehead while placing all confidence in another to cure them.

Obama offers the hope of change for the average American without them having to suffer through or do a damn thing except wear a button or sport a bumper sticker.

Akin to our government slapping some thick gauze on the hemmoraging nation and then giving it an overdose of painkillers for it's broken financial system and overstretched military muscle --- this 'remedy' may help citizens sleep through the night but God help us when dawn breaks.

Judicial Watch has a whole page of interesting articles about Obama.

He also made the list of Washington's "Ten Most Wanted Corrupt Politicians" for 2007.

Hope this helps. Obama supporters are a tough crowd.

I am in the same boat, alot of my friends are registering voters for Obama, making shirts, posters, the whole works... They even threw a rock concert for Obama on saturday. I went, not to support Obama but because 2 of my friends bands were playing. Of course I shouted Ron Paul when they shouted Obama, lol.

I think I will be able to convince them after this election but for now they are dead set on supporting Obama.

your friend may be drinking the kool-aid but i still think that john mccain and the GOP need a severe kick in the ass before we can take the party back ... so let the system collapse

You might suggest to him that he is uninformed since he refuses to watch the videos you send to him. The videos are educational & he should WANT to watch them to make a more educated & formed opinion. He's denying himself if he refuses to face & accept facts. Plus, with the msm turning more & more towards Dr. Paul for advice on the economy, he should watch them since Obomba is always on the msm channels.

Tell us a little about your friend, what's important to him? Maybe with a bit more knowledge about him we can figure out the most effective info for him to see without subjecting him to information overload.

If he can't see it by now, he's retarded. If he looks at my website, he'll see it, if not, he better have a lot of food or ammo if he shows up at my place when they're rounding up city folk.

You're not alone Mike, I also have friends who are mentally handicapped.

Seriously though, just show him Obama's voting record and list of corporate contributors.

but maybe not be a friend anymore? Slip a little Freedom to Facism in his DVD player. My sweet revenge against Obama and McCain is that everytime a new yard sign goes up I write down the address and when these little f*ckers come to my house for food I'm asking them their address if its on my list....C-YA. I know its crazy....I'm just really upset.
Heres an email I got today. I personally don't think Fidel is that bad or Putin or Chavez, but most people do so copy and paste if you like. Good luck....

One Latino from Cuba Writes This Letter to the Editor-Think Before You Vote

In the late 1950s, most Cubans thought Cuba needed a change, and they were right. So when a young leader came along, every Cuban was at least receptive. 'When the young leader spoke eloquently and passionately and denounced the old system, the press fell in love with him. They never questioned who his friends were or what he really believed in. When he said he would help the farmers and the poor and bring free medical care and education to all, everyone followed. When he said he would bring justice and equality to all, everyone said, 'Praise the Lord.' And when the young leader said, 'I will be for change and I'll bring you change,' everyone yelled, 'Viva Fidel!'' But nobody asked about the change, so by the time the executioner's guns went silent, the people's guns had been taken away. By the time everyone was equal, they were equally poor, hungry, and oppressed. By the time everyone received their free education, it was worth nothing. By the time the press noticed, it was too late, because they were now working for him. By the time the change was finally implemented, Cuba had been knocked down a couple of notches to Third-World status. By the time the change was over, more than a million people had taken to boats, rafts, and inner tubes. You can call those who made it ashore anywhere else in the world the most fortunate Cubans. And now I'm back to the beginning of my story. 'Luckily, we would never fall in America for a young leader who promised change without asking, what change? How will you carry it out? What will it cost America? 'Would we?'

buttering him up, inviting him over for some odd, off the wall reason the night before the polls, proceeding to casually ease into the beers in the fridge, (make sure you are stocked well that night) and drag on the conversation until about 2 AM. With a little luck, he'll say the hell with it and sleep in.
