...And Republicans Prepare To Highlight More Obama Associations [incl. Rashid Khalidi]

This blog will turn into a 501 (c) 6 before you know it.

Responding to reports that Sen. McCain’s associations are considered fair game by Democrats, Republican strategists affiliated with the McCain campaign say they plan to highlight Obama’s alleged contacts with individuals who they say have been linked to terrorist organizations, including controversial Columbia Prof. Rashid Khalidi, accused without real evidence of being a former PLO spokesperson and Ali Abunimah, a member of the Arab American Action Network who received a grant from the Woods Fund approved by Wm. Ayers, Obama and Khalidi. Khalidi and his wife held a fundraiser for Obama in 2000.

One strategist said: “Obama needs to understand he will own his friendships with individuals that are in some cases anti-American, anti-Semitic and pro-terrorist. The American people can decide whether Obama’s buddies reflect their values.”
