What kind of man is Obama?

Apparently, a vindictive man. Matt Drudge is reporting that Obama has banned several reporters from his ego trip press junket. Their crime? Working for newspapers that endorsed John McCain. The three papers (New York Post, Dallas Morning News, and the Washington Times) are amongst the largest in the country. The excuse given to the three newspapers is that the massive "O-Force One" no longer has room for them. "O-Force One" is a Boeing 757 and is rated to carry a maximum of 234 passengers.
Out of 234 passengers their isn't room for reporters from 3 of the nations largest newspapers? Of course there is. Once again, the nation is treated to a glimpse inside the real Obama. As a politician he should have learned that he will receive personal attacks. He will be the butt of jokes. Most importantly- he should have learned that not every media organization will endorse the chosen one.
This speaks volumes about Sen. Obama's character. He shuns those that do not agree with him. He embraces anti American conspiracy theorists such as Jeremiah Wright. He counts anti-American terrorists such as William Ayers amongst his friends. When you connect the dots, you begin to see that an Obama administration will not reach across the aisle in a bi-partisan effort. He will staff his administration with hard core liberals that are out of touch with most of America. He will shun those with new and better ideas- just as he shunned these three reporters for something that they likely didn't even have a voice in.
An Obama America is an America that sits on it's hands and refuses to act. It's a leftist paradise that will raise taxes on the most productive, and cut back on our military spending. Obama ally Barney Frank just called for decrease in military spending of 25%. As Americans we need to ask ourselves if this is wise, especially while fighting the Global War on Terror. Other Obama allies called the Iraq surge a failure before it even began. How wrong was Sen. Harry Reid on this key issue? If the American military makes it through the day without a combat loss, it will finish the month with ZERO combat losses in Iraq for the month. The surge not only worked, but it worked spectacularly. You may remember that Obama thought that the surge would fail and that we may have already lost the war.
Then there's Tony Rezko. He currently lives in a federal penitentiary for his part in an Illinois political scandal. The crime boiled down to influence pedaling. Mr. Rezko also helped broker the deal Obama's home. The deal that was significantly less than market value. It seems that Mr. Rezko may have overpaid on the neighboring lot to ensure that Sen. Obama could underpay on his own home. But, I'm sure that Mr. Rezko expected nothing in return...
The most important issue in this election is character, and Obama is woefully short of this particular trait. The second most important issue is judgment. I ask what kind of judgment has Sen. Obama shown in the situations presented above? That is the most important question you can ask yourself on election day.
