Uh oh.....Obama better look out.....the man who helped create the the 1988 "Willie Horton" attack ad is looking for money to create an attack ad on Obama.

Conservative activist Floyd G. Brown wants to show a new spot accusing Obama of being "weak" on Chicago gang killers in 2001 and suggesting he'd be the same way on terrorism, too. Brown bases his claim on Obama's vote against a bill which would have made gang killers automatically eligible for the death penalty.

The anti-gang activist, Chicago State Rep. Susana Mendoza, who sponsored the death-penalty bill said that she doesn't consider Obama weak on crime despite his opposition to her proposal and said the ad "completely mischaracterizes Senator Obama's position against ruthless criminals."

If anyone wants to check the record, they will see that while Obama is not a cheerleader for the death penalty, he has supported it for a number of crimes – including terrorism. He voted for an Illinois law in 2003 that includes the death penalty for convicted terrorists.

This information came to me courtesy of FactCheck.org which is a non-partisan corporation that seeks out only the truth while scourging liberals and conservatives alike who misrepresent the facts.

I'm waiting for the "Swiftboaters" to raise their reprehensible heads pretty soon also. I never could understand how the Kerry campaign let those jerks get away with their actions. Why didn't Kerry come out with a response which basically could have said "At least I was in Vietnam and I volunteered. Where the hell were Bush and Cheney? Why hasn't anyone come forward to claim the $100,000 offered by Larry Flynt to anyone who could prove Bush was actually in Alabama when he was supposed to be there?" To my knowledge no one ever claimed that reward. Based on his admitted actions during his youth, Bush was probably drunk and/or coked up and never went. Oh well, I digress.

Oh rats, here's another digression. I have still not gotten over my anger at Al Gore for not contesting the 2000 election based on the Republicans, the Florida State Police and Kathryn Harris' actions during that time. Michael Moore also showed Democrats in the House trying to get one Democratic Senator co-sponsor their protest against the stolen election and not one stepped forward. I hope somewhere and somehow those people will face a karmic consequence. The rest of us sure did when Bush took office.

Okay, back to present time....can the Democratic Party come back together after this campaign to beat McCain? It seems to me that the emotions are more fractured on both sides than usual and it makes me wonder if the threats from the losing side to bolt to McCain are real. I just have to ask though.....how on earth can anyone who believes in the positions espoused by Obama and Hillary (they really are not too far apart, you know) then turn around to vote for John "100 Year" McCain who also would vote to put more SC justices in the mold of Scalia and Thomas on the SC bench? I mean, come on!!!! I am an Obama man who is not happy with Hillary at all and yet there is no way on this green (?) earth I could ever vote for Anger Management John. HAS EVERYONE LOST THEIR SENSES????

Stay tuned.....
