I know what the majority of people want me to say: The Dow is falling because of the bailout!

So there, I said it.

I will not suggest at all that the reason the Dow is plummeting is that this crisis is precisely as serious as alleged.*

That would be wrong to say.

* Which is not to say that the bailout was the proper response, or is sufficient to stop a financial calamity. But yeah, it appears the crisis is very real.

Is Obama Depressing the Market? Since you guys brought it up.

You can't connect Obama to anyone.

Except Jesus.

He was a community organizer!

Push it real good.

What does all this have to do with Obama, besides the fact that he'd be the beneficiary of most, if not all, of these new votes?

For starters, Obama paid ACORN, which has endorsed him for president, $800,000 to register new voters, payments his campaign failed to accurately report. (They were disguised in his FEC disclosure as payments to a front group called Citizen Services Inc. for "advance work.")

What's more, Obama worked as executive director of ACORN's voter-registration arm, Project Vote, in 1992. Joined by two other community organizers on Chicago's South Side, Obama conducted the voter-registration drive that helped elect Carol Moseley-Braun to the Senate that year.

The next year, 1993, Obama joined the civil-rights law firm Davis Miner Barnhill & Galland, where he sued the state of Illinois on behalf of ACORN to implement the federal "Motor Voter" law, which the GOP governor at the time refused to do. Then-Gov. Jim Edgar argued, presciently, that the Clinton law would invite voter fraud.

Obama downplays his ties to ACORN, and his campaign denies coordinating with ACORN to register voters.

Meantime, New Orleans-based ACORN maintains that it has no control over volunteers who are falsifying application forms, that they're like employees who steal from the store.

But the fraud is widespread and not isolated. It also turns out that some ACORN execs allegedly are involved in a $1 million embezzlement cover-up at their headquarters. Representing them in the case is none other than Michelle Obama's old law firm in Chicago.

ACORN's corruption is not just out in the field, as they claim. There's a pattern of corruption from the top down.

McCain would be wise to start preparing a challenge to voter registration rolls should he lose the race in a close contest. He'd be crazy not to contest the results in light of these events.

Another IBD article takes aim at Obama's not-so-stealth socialism.

(Voters might also be interested to know that Obama, the supposed straight shooter, does not once mention his father's communist leanings in an entire book dedicated to his memory.)

In Kenya's recent civil unrest, Obama privately phoned the leader of the opposition Luo tribe, Raila Odinga, to voice his support. Odinga is so committed to communism he named his oldest son after Fidel Castro.

With his African identity sewn up, Obama returned to Chicago and fell under the spell of an Afrocentric pastor. It was a natural attraction. The Rev. Jeremiah Wright preaches a Marxist version of Christianity called "black liberation theology" and has supported the communists in Cuba, Nicaragua and elsewhere.

Obama joined Wright's militant church, pledging allegiance to a system of "black values" that demonizes white "middle classness" and other mainstream pursuits.

(Obama in his first book, published in 1995, calls such values "sensible." There's no mention of them in his new book.)

With the large church behind him, Obama decided to run for political office, where he could organize for "change" more effectively. "As an elected official," he said, "I could bring church and community leaders together easier than I could as a community organizer or lawyer."

He could also exercise real, top-down power, the kind that grass-roots activists lack. Alinsky would be proud.

Throughout his career, Obama has worked closely with a network of stone-cold socialists and full-blown communists striving for "economic justice."

When it's suggested towards Sarah Palin, it's just good old fashioned satire.

1995?

Not even close, Liar.

Why Ayers Matters: These guys weren't merely friends. They were political allies.

And even when you ignore bombing the Capitol and Pentagon and police stations and murdering various cops, Ayers clings to a radical Maoist politics.

How can it be that Senator Barack Obama was still talking with him as late as 2005, by his own admission, before he decided to throw Ayers under the bus when he suddenly realized a terrorist wasn't an appropriate ally for a presidential candidate?

I'm against this. I don't see how it helps her, and I don't even think the sketches have been good.

If she's going to do this, she should demand that Jim Downey write the sketch.

Just kidding. He wants to know who Trig's mother is.

Births At Mat-Su Medical Center In April 2008

Here they are listed on the hospital's website. Trig Palin, who was born there, Sarah Palin tells us, on April 18 at 6.30 am, is nowhere to be found. If you can find any public record of Trig Palin's birth anywhere, please let me know. I will gladly publish it as soon as I find it. So far, none exists that I have been able to track down.

The Dish contacted Mat-Su and asked what the criteria are for including the names of the babies born in the hospital.

They said that inclusion on the list is by parental choice and they ask all parents. When asked if it was therefore a fair inference to say that they asked the Palins and the Palins chose not to have their child included on the list, the hospital told us that the Palins' privacy barred them from answering those questions. I asked the McCain-Palin campaign to comment but they refuse to answer my emails.

It's shocking that the Palins somehow got the idea that they should probably not make their records public. I mean, what are the odds of a creepy gay vagina-envy child stalker intruding into their lives?

One in... one, as it turns out.

There's no requirement parents disclose their births, by the way. It's a private choice, not a hospital decision. Other parents make the same decision.

Also note that Sullivan previously asserted the Palins made such sick money (over $200,000 in combined salaries! WOW!) that they could "intimidate a hospital," so I'm not quite sure why they couldn't easily force the hospital to say Sarah Palin is Trig's mother.

Note his offer of proof shifts every day as the facts shift, but his conclusion remains e'er fixed like the North Star. One day they bully the hospital into faking records; the next day they bully them into withholding records.

And finally, note that disgusting picture. Oh, the picture's sweet, but Sullivan uses it to suggest that Levi and Bristol are Trig's pa and ma, despite the fact which is obvious to everyone but Sullivan that Bristol is seven or eight months pregnant and therefore was also pregnant in April, when Trig was born.

I understand that Sullivan is not merely gay but SUPRAGAY, and thus is as familiar with the female reproductive system as he is about... well, any other topic he writes so passionately about, anyway, but a two minute Google search should satisfy him of the fact that Bristol Palin is a human female and not, in fact, a Tribble.

Compare and Contrast: Bristol Palin speaks at least human language and does not emit a trilling purr when her fur is stroked; Bristol Palin is an omnivore, consuming vegetables and meat alike, and does not subsist entirely on "superwheat" space-crop quadrotriticaline

GayPatriotWest wondered why Andrew Sullivan, the Go-To Guy of Gay, the guy who cannot help but pontificate on anything having to do with homosexuality, has completely missed the whole Barney "Fannie Buddy" Frank thing.

By the way, I didn't want to post this. Thanks for the tips; but it's no longer possible to embarrass this brain-damaged gay gossip columnist. Nor, apparently, the gay gossip site and antisemitic conspiracy newsletter and Child Stalking for Dummies publisher he works for.

I had to post it because I got up early (for me) today to get the McCain news, and now I find there's no other stupid news to post. I only finally posted it when I thought of the joke headline and made myself chuckle.

And, in case you care, Sullivan posts the Trig thing again today (the above quoted post is yesterday's). Briefly, though. Just a brief regurgitation. And I do mean regurgitation. So there's no point clicking over there.

Andrew Sullivan Actually Demanded to Know Why Economics Blogger Megan McCardle Was Writing About the Bailout Rather than Trig Palin: Her answer--

Andrew wants to know why I'm more freaked out by the bailout package than by Sarah Palin. [Palin-hating bona fides established.] Andrew may not have heard, but there have been a few interesting developments in the financial markets over the last few weeks. As an economics blogger, I was regretfully forced to forgo full time devotion to the vice presidential race and turn to more trivial matters.

Thanks to Oschisms for that.

This once again proves one of my main takes on Sullivan -- he has a mediocre and trivial mind, inexpert in any area that would normally qualify one as a serious commentator on national affairs, and so is forced to reduce "politics" to this Melrose Place type crap because it's the only thing he's capable of writing about.

And, on top of that, now he's demanding that experts in relevant fields stop writing about their areas of expertise in order to join him on his Changeling Baby Snipe Hunt.
