Umm so what does this make McCain being that his organization, International Republican Institute, funded a grant for Rashid's Center for Palestine Research and Studies?... goodness, another guilt-by-association that McCain himself wants to push on to someone else but has his own ties to as well...

Obama was a "friend and frequent dinner companion" of Rashid Khalidi, who from 1976 to1982 was reportedly a director of the official Palestinian press agency, WAFA, which was operating in exile from Beirut with the PLO.
"Khalidi was a frequent dinner guest at the Obama's home and at his farewell dinner in 2003 Obama joined the unrepentant terrorist William Ayers in giving testimonials on Khalidi's role in the community,"
Obama addressed an audience during a 2003 farewell dinner for Khalidi, who was Obama's colleague at the University of Chicago, before his departure for Columbia University in New York. Obama said his many talks with Khalidi and his wife Mona stood as "consistent reminders to me of my own blind spots and my own biases."
copy from the article.
There is a differance between an associate and a friend.
At least in "my world" there is.
Someone correct me if I am wrong but didn't they trade "baby sitting" services with one another? That is NOT something we do down here with "associates".

guilt-by-association
You obviously don't understand the difference
in "association" and "alliance."
Obama doesn't have "just associations"
he has "alliances" with our enemies.
We thought the cold war was over between the US and the USSR.
The cold war is now the US vs. the US.
The old addage: You are your own worst enemy.
Now the "ideology" of our enemies is becoming our own ideology.

And yet this same man was funded by McCain through his organization, International Republican Institute. He funded a grant for Rashid's Center for Palestine Research and Studies?... another guilt-by-association that McCain himself wants to push on to someone else but has his own ties to as well...

That is public record.
Why not release the Tapes? Why hide them.
We do want to know the "whole" truth don't we?

Why is it that whenever something shady about 0bama comes up, his apologists immediately try tit-for-tat with unequal things.
I could say, "Look, 0bama is holding a 2x4", and the 0bamamaniacs would counter with, "Oh yeah? John McCain has a toothpick, so they both have pieces of wood and everything is equal again!"
0bama supporters, please look at your candidate and see how all of these radical anarchists, terrorists, anti-white anti-Jew racists, and socialists who occupy 0bama's orbit. It isn't just one odd guy that 0bama had lunch with one time: every association and friendship the man has is with shady and immoral characters! Even his wife has a low view of the United States of America!!!!

But McCain has his own connection to Khalidi.
In 1993, McCain became chairman of the International Republican Institute. He still chairs that respected organization.
That same year, Khalidi helped found the Center for Palestine Research and Studies, self-described as “an independent academic research and policy analysis institution” created to meet “the need for active Palestinian scholarship on issues related to Palestine.” (Its archived website is HERE.)
Khalidi was on the board of trustees through 1999.
According to tax returns the McCain-chaired IRI funded the organization Khalidi founded and served on to the tune of $448,873 in 1998 (click HERE to see the tax return) and to the tune of $389,621 in 1999 (click HERE.)
The IRI continued to give money to the CPRS after Khalidi left the group as well...
(click here to read rest...)
It's just a desperate ploy the McCain/Palin campaign is trying to drum up in the last few days to get votes, but every time they want to pull up some non existent association that's really loosely an association, the same can be applied to McCain... so wouldn't this make McCain palling around and supporting a terrorist too... goodness...

I believe the truth is coming out more and more about Obama and who he has aligned himself with for DECADES now.
I believe people are beginning to really understand what his "faith" is all about. They are beginning to understand that BLT has it's roots in Marxism.
I believe America is beginning to really grasp what this more liberal senator than the admitted socialist is really all about.
I believe America is not ready for the "type of Change" Obama is really talking about.

This "should" tell the American people something.

it is what it is.
They can't "see" Obama because they refuse to
look into their own hearts.

I agree - but the question is, in the few days that are left, will it be enough to make a difference? 
We just have to pray.
God is more than enough to make a difference.
Hopefully, He will give us mercy and not the deserved justice.

So McCain is on a government funded public foundation that gives money to another Palestinian government agency 12 years ago, and that association is equivalent to Obama saying of Rashid's wife:
Thanks to friends and family who provided models and standards and shared struggles of parenting:...Mona Khalidi, sister, friend, and co-parent today....
Right.

I believe it is.
There is something about human nature that when in doubt we begin to back down. I believe enough undecided voters are beginning to realzie that something stinks in the Obama camp and it's not Joe's breath.
Only a small portion of American's agree with socialism. The majority want nothing to do with it. Now that people know Obama is a socialist they are going to be turning away from him.

And we have to remember we only have the propoganda machine
feeding us the polls and news. They're usually wrong.
America will prevail.

No one here is his apologists, that would be reserved for most of you all here when it comes to McCain and Palin. When people like myself and others post things about McCain and Palin which just happen to be true and based on real facts, there's an uproar about it, we're Judases, and many won't discuss it but ignore what's being brought foward about their candidate that they're voting for. Not only that, we're told to apologize about it when those who post false things Obama don't apologize for what they bring forward, or asked why are we rehashing things that's been discussed before when those who bring up things about Obama over and over are the same topics that's been talked about over and over... very hypocritical.
However the difference is when many of you post these outlandish rumors, slander his character based on lies, and stretch out half-truths which can be applied to the candidate that you all support, that's when others and myself included will speak up. Like I've said before just because we're all Christians doesn't mean everyone is going to agree when it comes to politics, and some will stand up for what is seen as being hateful and many of the posts here are shown which are out of order like is Obama the next Hitler, Obama's going to get rid of Christian media, Obama's a muslim and has terrorist friends, he's this and that... it really is silly and more based on fear and hate than anything else.
Oh and BTW... Michelle never had a low view of the US, what she said was, "for the first time in my adult life, I'm really proud of my country"... how is that any different of McCain when he said on Fox News back in the spring of this year that, "I didn't really love America until I was deprived of her company" (when he was a POW), did that mean he had a low view of the US too... no, but but on anyone associated with Obama and it means they are anti-American...
So back to the topic, McCain funded (still funds) an organization that Rashid Khalidi was apart of, so if all this guilt by association that the McCain/Palin campaighn, and their followers love to play, wouldn't the same thing be applied to McCain if we apply the same thing to him... you betcha' ...

Has McCain had Rashid baby sit for him?
Invited him over for a family dinner?
Asked to give a speech in his honor?
Now can we "pretty please" see the tapes?

Yet, you have failed to say how McCain funding Khalidi doesn't make him guilty by association since you all are trying to spin it on Obama when McCain has had his own association with Khalidi to point where he provided money to his organization.
