McCain -- national punchbag for crisis the Democrats created- says Ruth Dudley Edwards

This article in the Sunday Independent is an excellent analysis of the genesis of the current economic crisis prevailing not alone in the US but throughout the world. It is also weighs the relative merits of both John McCain and Barack Obama as presidential material. Here are some excerpts:

".......The road to hell is paved with good intentions, and the economic hell that the world is now experiencing began with the determination of Bill Clinton and the Democratic Party to force mortgage providers to help the poor -- particularly those from ethnic minorities -- to become home owners.

Clinton became alarmed at the rampant success of his policy enforcers, but his attempt to introduce regulation of the sub-prime market was shot down in Congress by his own party, who were in thrall to the powerful Congressional Black Caucus who attacked prudence as racism.
George W Bush's several attempts to rein back mortgage providers were similarly sabotaged. "The Democrats are our family," said the head of Freddie Mac to the meeting of the Black Caucus in 2004 at which Obama was welcomed into the group: "You are our conscience."

There are hundreds of thousands of poor people, black, white and Hispanic, who are now homeless because the Democratic Party allowed itself to be bullied by that caucus. And Obama's failure to question the group's activities is all of a piece with his political record. He talks of change but -- unlike McCain, who is an instinctive and brave reformer -- as a politician he has never questioned the institutions of which he has been part......"

"....As a state senator for eight years, he never challenged corruption in the Democratic political sewer that is Chicago. On the contrary, he sucked up to the power-brokers and wheeler-dealers and chose as his friends people who could help him extend his political base. ......"

Hillary Clinton's stinging criticism of Barack Obama

The ad features just some of the many negative comments Senator Hillary Clinton made about Barack Obama.

Obama's radical Socialist and Marxist connections and convictions unfold

Barack Obama is a radical Socialist one of whose goals is to engineer election success through a form of class warfare. Consistently he has attacked the higher earners-the top 15% of voters.
He speaks about redistribution. He forgets that such attacks will force capital outflows to safer havens. Obama is by conviction a crypto Marxist. Certainly the candidate of change. The candidate of the radical left.

Just look at the following from American Thinker and then read the full article:
"Another piece in the puzzle of Barack Obama has been revealed, greatly strengthening the picture of a man groomed by an older generation of radical leftists for insertion into the American political process, trading on good looks, brains, educational pedigree, and the desire of the vast majority of the voting public to right the historical racial wrongs of the land.
The New Party was a radical left organization, established in 1992, to amalgamate far left groups and push the United States into socialism by forcing the Democratic Party to the left. It was an attempt to regroup the forces on the left in a new strategy to take power, burrowing from within. The party only lasted until 1998, when its strategy of "fusion" failed to withstand a Supreme Court ruling.
But dissolving the party didn't stop the membership,
INCLUDING Barack Obama, from continuing to move the Democrats leftward with spectacular success. "............................................

Obama attempts to woo Evangelical Conservatives a massive con–trick that must be exposed.

Recently in Chicago Obama met with religious leaders including conservative evangelicals. He has now launched a campaign to reach out to evangelical conservatives. His campaign also plans thousands of "American Values House Parties," Ostensively Obama is a firm believer in Christian principles. The reality of course is different. His Christianity is a pick and choose Christianity. Christianity a la carte.

Obama is attempting to square the circle to reach out to the evangelical right. He is endeavouring to prise sufficient evangelicals and Catholics from the GOP to scuttle the McCain campaign. Unfortunately for him his Christianity is contaminated by his adherence secular humanist beliefs. In reality his true religion is secular humanist in character with a little leavening of Christianity. When Obama is faced with a choice between Christian principles and secular humanism he invariably opts for secular humanism. He has the most liberal voting record in the Senate and is a powerful supporter of partial birth abortion. He supports the destruction of the unborn child in the womb. He supports barbarism. The Fifth Commandment states” thou shalt not kill”. There are no ifs no buts here. No provision for the woman's right to choose.

You see Obama wishes to have his cake and eat it. The pro-abortion position is irreconcilable with the anti-abortion position. Obama attempts to bridge the irreconcilable with obfuscatory rhetoric. Lets be blunt. He has deliberately misrepresented scripture in an effort to justify the unjustifiable. The devil can quote scripture to suit his own purposes. Similarly with Obama.

Obama has said:
"Even if we did have only Christians in our midst, if we expelled every non-Christian from the United States of America, whose Christianity would we teach in the schools?" Obama said. "Would we go with James Dobson's or Al Sharpton's?" referring to the civil rights leader.
Here he is attempting to muddy the waters to justify his secular humanism. The Ten Commandments must the guiding principles for all Christians.

Obama supports the culture of death. McCain supports the culture of life. As such Barack has set himself against Christian principles. Flowery language is no substitute for fundamental principles. Secular humanism is the enemy of Christianity. A President Obama will appoint liberal judges. A President McCain will appoint conservative judges.
McCain is riding the Christian horse. Obama is riding the Secular Humanist horse.
Catholics and evangelicals must not be seduced by the syrupy rhetoric of Obama.
Obama’s secular humanism is the antithesis of Christianity.

Iraq War protesters disrupt Easter Mass at Holy Name-Chicago and commit sacrilege

Now not even Catholic churches are safe. Six members of the anti-war group "Catholic Schoolgirls Against The War" staged a dramatic die-in during the 11AM Easter Mass at Holy Name Cathedral, Chicago's most prominent Catholic parish. When Cardinal Francis George began his homily they shouted their opposition to the conflict.
They squirted fake blood on themselves and on parishioners.

The protesters were all charged with felony criminal damage to property and two counts of simple battery for squirting the blood around the auditorium and onto worshipers' clothes, authorities said. Chicago police identified the six arrested as Donte D. Smith, 18; Ephran Ramirez Jr., 22; Ryane Ziemba, 25; Mercedes Phinaih, 18; Regan Maher, 25; and Angela Haban, 20.
