"Deliver us, Obama"?!?!?; Khadafy share's Obama vision; Empire State building to honor Chinese

1) Creepy O-cult video of the day: “Deliver us, Obama!” I didn’t think you could top those schoolchildren substituting Obama for Jesus in their public school praise hymn. Now, thanks to Naked Emperor News and Breitbart TV, we have video of community organizers led by the “Gamaliel Foundation” praying to The One as they lobby for “social justice” and health care for all. “HEAR OUR CRY, OBAMA!” “DELIVER US, OBAMA!” And no, this is not an Onion parody… See: http://michellemalkin.com/2009/09/29/creepy-o-cult-video-of-the-day-deliver-us-obama/ More on this…The "leaders" enter a room chanting, "Everybody in, nobody out," apparently referring to health care.  Then the chanter leads: "We are here for the healing of the nation," to which the crowd responds, "Yes."  "With the prophet Jeremiah we cry out, 'Is there no balm in Gilead?'" continues the chanter. "Is there no physician here. Why then has the health of thy poor people not been restored?"  The crowd responds: "Hear our cry Obama."  The chanter references the "prophet Martin Luther King Jr.," to which the crowd responds, "Here our cry Obama."  The chanter then intones: "From health care systems and industries that place profit over people," and the people respond, "Deliver us Obama."  The chanter then references "lobbying efforts" and "freed and fear," to which the crowd responds, "Deliver us Obama." I couldn’t make this stuff up if I tried!

Here's a group of skulls full of mush reciting a poem in honor of Obama, at a PTO meeting.  Change has come. Change has come. Hope! Uniting blacks and whites. Hope! Being both, Obama cannot take sides. Hope! "Don’t worry," said hope. "I will be your bridge." In time, hope will be the bridge for all of us. Hope will last enough for you to make a difference. Change has come. Change has come. Go now, fly free! Study! Watch! Learn! Keep your eyes open! Education is the key! Education is the secret! Education is the way! Education is the path! Can I make America better? Can I make America better? Can we make America better? Yes! Yes we can! Yes! Yes we can! RUSH: Another scripted song poem in praise of our Dear Supreme Leader, Barack Hussein Obama. Again that's from September 2009, Asheville, North Carolina, Sand Hill Venable Elementary School PTO meeting.

As of yet, though, he does not act that way, appearing promiscuously on television and granting interviews like the presidential candidate he no longer is. The election has been held, but the campaign goes on and on. The candidate has yet to become commander in chief.  Take last week's Group of 20 meeting in Pittsburgh. There, the candidate-in-full commandeered the television networks and the leaders of Britain and France to give the Iranians a dramatic warning. Yet another of their secret nuclear facilities had been revealed and Obama, as anyone could see, was determined to do something about it -- just don't ask what. …The supposedly secret installation had been known to Western intelligence agencies -- Britain, France, the United States and undoubtedly Israel -- for several years. Its existence had been deduced by intelligence analysts from Iranian purchases abroad, and it was pinpointed sometime afterward. What had changed was that news of it had gone public. This happened not because Obama announced it but because the Iranians beat him to it after discovering that their cover was blown. They then turned themselves in to the International Atomic Energy Agency in Vienna and, as usual, said the site was intended for the peaceful use of nuclear energy. These Persians lie like a rug. …For a crisis such as this, the immense prestige of the American presidency ought to be held in reserve. Let the secretary of state issue grave warnings. When Obama said in Pittsburgh that Iran is "going to have to come clean and they are going to have to make a choice," it had the sound of an ultimatum. But what if the Iranians don't? What then? A president has to be careful with such language. He better mean what he says. The trouble with Obama is that he gets into the moment and means what he says for that moment only. He meant what he said when he called Afghanistan a "war of necessity" -- and now is not necessarily so sure. He meant what he said about the public option in his health-care plan -- and then again maybe not. He would not prosecute CIA agents for getting rough with detainees -- and then again maybe he would. …Obama is our version of a Supreme Leader, not given to making idle threats, setting idle deadlines, reversing course on momentous issues, creating a TV crisis where none existed or, unbelievably, pitching Chicago for the 2016 Olympics. Obama's the president. Time he understood that.

If ubiquity were the measure of a presidency, Barack Obama would already be grinning at us from Mount Rushmore. But of course it is not. Despite his many words and television appearances, our elegant and eloquent president remains more an emblem of change than an agent of it. He's a man with an endless, worthy to-do list—health care, climate change, bank reform, global capital regulation, AfPak, the Middle East, you name it—but, as yet, no boxes checked "done." This is a problem that style will not fix. Unless Obama learns to rely less on charm, rhetoric, and good intentions and more on picking his spots and winning in political combat, he's not going to be reelected, let alone enshrined in South Dakota. The president's problem isn't that he is too visible; it's the lack of content in what he says when he keeps showing up on the tube. See: http://www.newsweek.com/id/216210 3) Mr. Policy Hits a Wall "In one policy area after another," Schambra writes, "from transportation to science, urban policy to auto policy, Obama's formulation is virtually identical: Selfishness or ideological rigidity has led us to look at the problem in isolated pieces . . . we must put aside parochialism to take the long systemic view; and when we finally formulate a uniform national policy supported by empirical and objective data rather than shallow, insular opinion, we will arrive at solutions that are not only more effective but less costly as well. This is the mantra of the policy presidency."  Historically, that approach has not worked. The progressives failed to gain more than brief ascendancy, and the Carter and Clinton presidencies were marked by striking policy failures. The reason, Schambra says, is that this highly rational, comprehensive approach fits uncomfortably with the Constitution (Well, no kidding! - Comment mine), which apportions power among so many different players, most of whom are far more concerned with the particulars of policy than its overall coherence.

The two votes marked a victory for Montana Democrat Max Baucus, the Senate Finance Committee chairman, who is hoping to push his middle-of-the-road measure through the panel by week's end. It also kept alive the possibility that at least one Republican may yet swing behind the overhaul, a key goal of both Baucus and the White House.

When it was all over, 16-year-old Derrion Albert lay on the gravel, his body dented and damaged from the pummeling. A youth worker at the center dragged Derrion's slight frame into the center, but it was too late. He died a short time later. This is very sad and angering. But I have to make this comment: Maybe we should outlaw 2-by-4s? Or maybe some 2-by-4 control should be in order. How about making it illegal to buy a 2-by-4 unless you get your picture taken, answer a mental health questionnaire, and get finger-printed? After all, 2-by-4s seem to have killed this boy.   See: http://www.chicagobreakingnews.com/2009/09/boy-16-found-slain-on-far-south-side.html 6) Khadafy: I Share Obama Vision RUSH: So last night on Larry King Alive there's huge news made here as a certifiable terrorist whack job, Moammar Khadafy says that his views are identical to our president's. Now, in a normal, sane media world that would be news and then somebody would track down Obama and say, "Mr. President, Moammar Khadafy appeared on Larry King Live last night and said his views are identical to yours and he agrees with everything you say, that you've said, and thinks you should be president forever. What's your reaction?" Of course that will not happen.

The people he associates with are very Left-wing. One is registered as a Communist. "Obama is following Marxist theory. He's taken over the banks and the car industry. He wants the country to fail."

National Guard troops on active duty are also required to receive the vaccine, as are civilian Defense Department employees who are in critical jobs.  As a result, the military is expected to provide health officials with an early assessment of the vaccine.  "Because I can compel people to get the shots, larger numbers will have the vaccine," said Renuart, commander of U.S. Northern Command. "They will, as a percentage of the population, be vaccinated more rapidly than many of us. So we may see some objective results, good or not, of the vaccinations." So, what you’re saying, Mr. Renuart, is that you’re running a human experiment without the consent of the people being experimented on…how constitutional of you.

"Remember, the communist leaders of Mao's China are not called the 'Butchers of Beijing' for nothing. Since seizing power in 1949, it is estimated that the communist government in China has murdered more than 50 million people (some reports say the number is over 70 million)."

Regulators who oversee child care, however, don't see it as charity. Days after the start of the new school year, Snyder received a letter from the Michigan Department of Human Services warning her that if she continued, she'd be violating a law aimed at the operators of unlicensed day care centers.

No major flooding was expected, however.  In Los Angeles, lifeguards said they will clear beaches around 8 p.m. in response to a tsunami advisory for possible dangerous currents. “and there will be earthquakes in various places…” See: http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20090930/ap_on_re_au_an/as_pacific_earthquake
