Who Vetted Obama?
By Cliff Kincaid
The Washington Post reported that John McCain's vetting process for picking Governor Sarah Palin included an FBI background check. Other reports dispute this. But when did the FBI investigate Obama? Who vetted him? We are living witnesses to an incredible media double standard, whereby a Republican vice-presidential candidate's personal life is being torn apart, while the Democrat presidential candidate continues to get a free ride. Obama has a 30-year history of associating with unsavory characters, beginning with communist Frank Marshall Davis and continuing with Jeremiah Wright and communist terrorists Bill Ayers and Bernardine Dohrn, which should disqualify him from getting a security clearance in the government that he wants to run. But the media would rather talk about Republicans and sex. [more...]
Joe Biden: Obama's 'Evil Twin'
By Gregory D. Lee
Despite Sen. Joe Biden's denial on Meet the Press and other media outlets that he was not interested, it seems as though his insider supporters lobbied heavily for him to be Sen. Barack Obama's pick for vice president. I hardly think these supporters did this without the knowledge and consent of Sen. Biden. According to the Wall Street Journal, Sen. Biden's "team" sold Sen. Obama on Joe's "humble roots" by pitching his poverty compared to other senators, and his strong foreign policy experience. His team would like you to believe that commuting by train to and from Delaware to the nation's capital means he's not a Washington insider despite being a U.S. senator since he was 30 years old.

How Would You Like It, Sen. Biden?
By Harvey Kushner
Campaigning yesterday in Toledo, Ohio, Joe Biden began what is sure to become standard Biden attack language. In calling attention to what he sees as a big difference between himself and Sarah Palin, the loose-lipped Biden snapped, "She's good-looking." Yup, you're right, Sen. Biden; Rush Limbaugh summed it up best for all us conservatives when he said that "we're the ones that have the babe on the ticket." Rush was not just commenting on Palin's looks but also her social conservative views that frame her as an individual. Your remark, Sen. Biden, was clearly meant to diminish Gov. Palin's credibility and dismiss her as just another attractive brainless female. How would you like it, Sen. Biden, had John McCain stated that the difference between himself and Obama "was black and white?" [more...]
Newspaper Whitewashes Story of Man Linked to Palestinian Islamic Jihad
By Steve Emerson
It's no secret newspapers are struggling financially. Virtually every week brings new reports about vast layoffs and cutbacks. There are fewer pages with fewer stories. So it's more than a little confusing to see a major metropolitan daily send a reporter halfway around the world to tell half a story. The St. Petersburg Times on Monday offered readers just that in a heart-tugging update on Mazen Al-Najjar and his new life in Egypt. Al-Najjar, whose sister is Sami Al-Arian's wife, was deported by the U.S. in 2002 after a five-year fight in which he was held without bond for more than four years based in part on secret evidence linking him to the Palestinian Islamic Jihad.
