2008 Campaign
Family Security Matters does not stand behind or endorse any candidate for president (or any other public office). However, as the President is also Commander-in-Chief and is responsible for setting national security policy, we will be publishing a variety of articles on both the Republican and Democrat candidates for President during this election year. As always, the opinions of our Contributing Editors are their own, and do not necessarily reflect those of Family Security Matters.

Obama Should Come Clean On Ayers, Rezko And the Iraqi Billionaire
Even as Barack Obama gave his soaring speech Thursday night, his campaign was playing hardball with its critics. Team Obama has launched an offensive against WGN, the Chicago Tribune's radio station, for interviewing Stanley Kurtz. Mr. Kurtz is a conservative writer who this week forced the University of Illinois to finally open its records on Sen. Obama's association with William Ayers, the unrepentant 1970s Weather Underground terrorist.

What If Conservatives Had Wished For a Hurricane?
Michael Moore, known for his bashing of conservatives, demonstrated once again his stupidity and callousness on MSNBC's August 29 “Countdown with Keith Olbermann.”
Before Olbermann could even utter a vile comment about Bush or McCain, the sloven Moore laughed and opined, “I was just thinking, this Gustav is proof that there is a God in heaven.” The smirking Moore went on to imply how the hurricane could not be coincidental, “To have it planned at the same time—that it would actually be on its way to New Orleans for day one of the Republican Convention, up in the Twin Cities—at the top of the Mississippi River.”

Colorado Governor's "Oops"
He puts his party's man Obama in outhouse
All last week, Colorado's Gov. Bill Ritter saw and heard the empty cheering of his party's faithful up close as they held their national convention in Denver.
Now Ritter has fallen into a nasty trap created one day later when Sen. John McCain announced his running mate choice, Gov. Sarah Palin.
In responding to the Palin announcement, Ritter has told the world in the clearest possible language why he (implicitly) disapproves of his party's presidential candidate, Barack Obama,

Self-Made Man or Mysterious Stranger?
by Charles Krauthammer
Barack Obama is an immensely talented man whose talents have been largely devoted to crafting, and chronicling, his own life. Not things. Not ideas. Not institutions. But himself.
Nothing wrong or even terribly odd about that, except that he is laying claim to the job of crafting the coming history of the United States. A leap of such audacity is odd. The air of unease at the Democratic convention this week was not just a result of the Clinton psychodrama. The deeper anxiety was that the party was nominating a man of many gifts but precious few accomplishments -- bearing even fewer witnesses.

A Snapshot of Joe Biden's Foreign Policy Judgment
Barack Obama's choice of Joe Biden as running mate hasn't helped him in the polls, and it has highlighted Obama's lack of experience in matters of foreign policy and national security, but more than that it has given Republicans additional grounds to question Obama's judgment. At first glance the addition of the chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, a man with 35 years in the Senate, might seem the perfect balance to a ticket headed by a candidate with very little experience. The fit might look perfect on paper, but the reality does not quite live up to the promise. A look at Joe Biden's recent foreign policy judgment says a lot more about a possible Obama presidency than the fact that Biden has been in the Senate for 3 ½ decades.

Dems nervous over final night convention risks
Obama’s acceptance speech at Mile High Stadium tonight
DENVER - Senior Democratic officials are expressing serious concerns about the political risks posed by Barack Obama's acceptance speech at Invesco Field at Mile High Stadium Thursday evening.
From the elaborate stagecraft to the teeming crowd of 80,000 cheering partisans, the vagaries of the weather to the unpredictable audience reaction, the optics surrounding the stadium event have heightened worries that the Obama campaign is engaging in a high-risk endeavor in an uncontrollable environment.

Ayers Unrepentant for Radical Group’s Violence in 1960s, 1970s
William Ayers, who was a founder of the 1960s and 1970s radical group the Weather Underground, told FOX News correspondent James Rosen in a candid 2004 interview that he still believed he was "on the side of justice" years after the group's wave of attacks.
In the interview, conducted three years after the September 11 attacks, Ayers argued the U.S. government had carried out "many other acts of terror ... even recently, that are comparable," and claimed he and his bomb-planting comrades were "restrained" in their actions.
Ayers, now a professor at the University of Illinois, Chicago, served with Barack Obama on the board of the charitable Woods Fund of Chicago for three years and helped launch Obama's political career in Illinois by hosting in his Hyde Park home an informal campaign event for the future state senator in 1995.

MSNBC: The National Barack Cable Network
The opening of the Democratic National Convention in Denver Monday evening once again emphasized that MSNBC’s biased duo Matthews and Olbermann, as well as others at the news cable network, have lost their impartiality -- if not their minds -- when it comes to Barack Obama.
