'No' to Obama campaign builds steam

The brouhaha over the antics of Sen. Barack Obama's venom-spewing pastor has died down, as have the comments over his wife's "pride" in America. But it easy to see why for seven straight weeks, the NObama 08 Magnetic Bumper Sticker is the No. 1 pick among best-sellers at Shop.WND.com.

After all, there's the new controversy about more than $30,000 apparently donated to the campaign in violation federal election law from Gaza as well as an increasing number of alarms about his birth certificate, which would impact his eligibility to run for office.

WND has reported on both new circumstances, the first involving the donation of $33,500 from three brothers in the Hamas-controlled Gaza Strip. The campaign said the money was returned but in an interview with WND, the brothers say they haven't gotten anything back. It's an issue because U.S. law doesn't allow foreigners to fund election campaigns.

There also are the reports that say an image of a birth certificate purporting to document Obama's birth in Hawaii simply isn't real. The document is significant for the sole reason that if Obama was not born inside the United States, his citizenship would be in question since his mother was not old enough at the time of his birth to pass along citizenship, and his father wasn't a citizen. Federal law states the presidency cannot belong to anyone born without citizenship.

The "NOBama" bumper sticker campaign also is a voter's opportunity to express a political position.

"Make a bold statement this year – and every year. This magnetic, permanent yet removable bumper sticker measures 15 by 3-3/4 inches. It's perfect not only for your car, but for your refrigerator, file cabinet – any metal surface where you would like to make a statement," the promotion says.

Obama's earlier controversies included an endorsement by a former Communist Party leader in Palestine and a blog posting on Obama's official campaign website urging Americans to work to release an imprisoned terrorist fundraiser.

Oh, don't forget he's also been promoted by a group of Hindus who heard the candidate carries a small version of a Hindu monkey-god. And he apparently still supports all late-term abortions, and is willing to abandon American strategies in the Middle East.

It also was just a week ago he was taking criticism for saying: "There are things you can do individually, though, to save energy. Making sure your tires are properly inflated – simple thing. But we could save all the oil that they're talking about getting off drilling – if everybody was just inflating their tires? And getting regular tune-ups? You'd actually save just as much!"

Moving up to second place is "The Obama Nation by Jerome Corsi.

The co-author of "Unfit for Command" and a senior staff reporter for WND researched and wrote about issues involving the presumptive Democratic nominee for president.

And he explains why the "extreme leftism" of an Obama presidency would leave the United States "weakened, diminished and divided."

Corsi has examined Obama's early years in Hawaii and Indonesia, his Chicago political career, his religious training, his recent involvement in Kenyan politics, his advisers, fund-raisers and his presidential campaign.

Then he shows how Obama would be "a repeat of the failed extremist politics that have characterized and plagued Democratic party politics since the late 1960s."

With more than 600 footnotes, the book examines Obama's anti-war, anti-nuclear foreign policy, his involvement in the slum-landlord empire of Chicago political fixer Tony Rezko, his continuing connections to Kenya, his admiration for black-liberation theology expert Rev. Jeremiah Wright and his links to Islam.

In third is the new "None of the Above" by Joseph Farah.

It warns that the two major political party candidates for president are not running for office because they want to help you.

"If you're suffering from the delusion that John McCain and Barack Obama are looking out for your best interests, think again. The only interests our major party candidates care about are their own – and those of their buddies and financial contributors (of both the foreign and domestic variety)," according to the book.

"Make no mistake: promoting either into the presidency means a further loss of our freedoms. And once taken, those freedoms won't be returned without a fight," it says.

The book says people should be citizens instead of subjects by reclaiming the rights guaranteed in the Constitution; rejecting the government's pervasive, insidious, destructive and illegal encroachment into every aspect of our lives; and rejecting a political system that's rotten to the core.

In his new book, Farah, the founder of WND.com, reveals how Americans can reassert their God-given rights and in the process return this great nation to its once and future glory while limiting the government's intrusion into our lives, businesses and schoolrooms.

"Farah is a serious man with a serious proposal that must be taken seriously," said Michael Savage, host of the Savage Nation.

"Anyone who reveres this great nation can't help but be appalled by this year's presidential nominees. In None of the Above, Joseph Farah explains how we got into this deplorable mess, and what we must do right now if we are to reverse America's downhill slide," added Corsi.
