Questions for Obama

I’m certain that John McCain cannot afford himself the privilege of asking some very difficult and exposing questions in a debate with Barak Hussein Obama. It might have something to do with the “throwing stones in glass houses” theory, or Hollywood and the press might have a hay-day making him out to be mean spirited as they did after the last debate in Nashville.

However – I have some serious questions that I need to have answered before I could ever pull the lever (or however we vote here in my district) for Barak Hussein Obama. So, I’m simply going to ask them. Though I don’t exactly fall into the category of “undecided voter” I’m not necessarily a McCain enthusiast either. But as it stands – with the following questions that I need answers to – Barak Hussein Obama makes me very nervous as an American voter – no matter how popular he might be right now.

So – Mr. Obama, if you or someone on your staff could answer these questions – I’ll be more than happy to oblige your campaign with posting your answers everywhere I have posted these questions on the internet.

1. If you grew up in such a penurious home environment – how were you able to afford to attend Ivy League Universities like Harvard?

2. When you attended the Occidental college in California – how did you enjoy such a vicarious lifestyle of drug use (by your own admission) and still maintain the grade level necessary to be accepted into Harvard?

3. What is your current relationship with your then college roommates Muham Hasan Chandoo and Wahid Hamid both of Pakistan?

4. If your family was of meager financial means – how did you pay for an around the world trip in 1981 which included a trip to Pakistan, Africa, and India? Incidentally – I struggle to pay for a trip to DC – and I live 20 miles away.

5. When you returned from that trip – how did you afford to enter into Columbia University in NY?

6. If the answer to the affordability questions to your college was student loans – how did you pay off those loans on a $12,000 a year salary as a Chicago Community Organizer?

7. What is your current relationship with Antoine “Tony” Rezko who was convicted this year of Fraud and Bribery but was in recent years named Entrepreneur of the DECADE by the Arab-American Business and professional Association?

8. Did Mr. Rezko pay for your college tuition to Harvard?

9. Did the law firm you went to work for after your Harvard graduation represent Mr. Rezko?

10. Did Mr. Rezko, who again is guilty of fraud and bribery and a member of the Arab-American Business and professional Association – fund or help fund your Senate campaign?

11. How are you able to afford a home worth $1.65 Million, and maintain your college education bills – because you were from a family with meager financial means?

12. Did you pay $1.65 Million for that house?

13. How and why did Rezko buy the property right next to yours?

14. Is it true that Nadhmi Auchi, an Iraqi-born Billionaire loaned Rezko $3.5 million only three weeks prior to your new home purchase? Of course you can’t answer that question – because who loans what to whom is really none of your affair – but I do find it odd and highly coincidental. So if you could shed some insight for me...

15. Have you ever med Nadhmi Auchi? Have you ever had a meeting with him and Rezko? Don’t need to know the purpose of the meeting – just whether or not you’re all three “buds” or something?

16. What is your relationship with Valerie Jarrett? Does she have a position in your campaign?

17. Where is Valerie Jarrett from? I heard she is originally from Shiraz, Iran. Isn’t that a conflict of interest considering your current position stated in your campaign where Iran is concerned? Scary.

18. Who is Robert Malley? What is his relationship to you and/or your campaign?

19. Does he have regular contact with ‘Hamas,’ which controls Gaza and connected to Iran as one newspaper supposedly reported?

20. Did you ask Iraqi leaders to do nothing about the war until after you were elected? And did you tell them you would “take care of things”?

21. OH – and those college roomies of yours out in California – were they Pakistani’s? What are those guys up to now-a-days? I hear they are in charge of all those “small” internet campaign contributions your campaign receives, is there any truth to that?

22. Where do those small internet contributions come from?

23. I wonder – and I know you can’t answer this – but I still wonder what the average contributor to your campaign makes per year? Can they really afford you? Or does the money come from the Middle East?

24. Did you tell George Stephanopoulos that you were of the Muslim Faith as The Washington Times reported on September 7, 2008? I know you stated that you made a mistake – but taking a lesson from the Bill Clinton playbook – it could have just been a mistake to let that slip out…so…here’s the more direct question: Are you Muslim in your Faith? (and yes – it does matter).

25. Did you sue anyone or any mortgage related businesses during your career which resulted in Federal legislation forcing mortgage loan companies like Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac to approve bad loans – ultimately resulting in our current economic demise?

26. Did you vote down legislation that would have allowed a new born baby that happened to be a failed abortion attempt – denying that child healthcare and was left to die as a result of your actions? Wouldn’t that be defined as Infanticide (that’s how I define it)?

27. Do you really believe that if you raise taxes on the corporations that Bush gave tax cuts to and McCain states that NO ONE get’s higher taxes – that if you raise them – they will cut costs elsewhere (inclusive of new jobs)?

28. Do you really believe that Americans are going to use less fuel to help in the Oil Crisis we currently face? Do you honestly think that’s the best answer coming from our government?

29. And finally – if any or all of the above questions are legitimate concerns – am I going to be able to sleep at night living just 20 miles south of DC with you in the White House?
