There is a far-reaching scandal brewing for presidential hopeful Sen.
Barack Obama, thanks to a radio talk show host based in Oregon.
Syndicated talk host Laurie Roth’s revelations make the news story about
Obama’s relationship with a racist, anti-American pastor look like
child’s play.
A top official at the Pentagon during former-President George H. W.
Bush’s Administration and a former CIA intelligence officer maintain
that Barack Obama and former Weather Underground honcho William Ayers
funneled money to Professor Rashid Khalidi, a known terrorist sympathizer.
Khalidi serves on the faculty of Columbia University in New York and is
best known as the professor who invited Iranian President Ahmedinejad to
visit Columbia University after he finished his speech at the United
Nations. According to confidential sources, Khalidi has direct ties to
the Palestinian Liberation Organization (PLO), a group on the US State
Department’s list of known terrorist groups.
“One source for this information was once a top military figure in the
1990s. He doesn’t take making allegations lightly. If he says something
happened, believe me, it happened,“ said syndicated radio talk show host
