Our friend DCE over at WeekendPundit is doing a series on Obama. Now, DCE is right-of-center / conservative, just not quite as conservative as Doug and I (and we both jest about being such with the line "we’re just to the left of Atilla the Hun"). That said, if DCE is starting to not only notice but motivated enough to write about the smoke and mirrors of Obama, you may want to take a read. Part 2 can be found here:
As Kyle-Anne Shiver wrote in her post linked above, "When a man of so little verifiable background and experience presents himself as a candidate for what is unarguably the most powerful political position in the entire world, every scrap of detail regarding his life, beliefs, associations, and accomplishments is of extreme importance." Like her, there are a number of unknowns that make me feel uncomfortable about the Man Who Would Be President.
[The details] are all we have, especially in light of Barack Obama’s refusal to release and make public the following:
- A certified, authenticated birth certificate
- College transcripts from Occidental, Columbia, and Harvard
- Senior thesis written at Columbia
- Writings from Harvard
- Full medical records
In light of these gaping holes in his resume — holes that could be easily filled in by Barack Obama, but have not been — it becomes the duty of every voter to examine the peripheral areas of Obama’s life with utmost care, giving special attention to patterns of association that point to matters of judgment, character, and true intent.
Obama remains an enigma, and an enigma is the last thing we need sitting behind the desk in the Oval Office.
Enigmatic and socialistic. As opposed to McCain who has pretty much put everything out there for paperwork and has made himself vulnerable at scores of Town Hall and bloggers’ call events, Obama has been very reticent about offering details about pretty much everything (after all, why spoil a marketing plan with the nitty gritty?).
