James Pinkerton of FOX has written, in a blog on FOXnews.com, an article tying Obama to Lucifer Prince of Darkness, via Saul Alinsky, who once humorously dedicated a book to Lucifer as the "first radical":
Alinsky died when Obama was ten years old.
Pinkerton, whom FOX describe as a "political analyst", rather than, for example, "gibbering lunatic and blatant liar", goes on to advise that this line of attack is, and I quote: "how you win a presidential campaign, even amidst hard times for your party."
It may sound crazy, but one of the candidates in this race has publicly praised, even emulated, a writer-activist who himself paid tribute to Lucifer. That’s right, Lucifer, also known as the Devil, Satan, Beelzebub—you get the idea.
Do you think that admiring a Lucifer-admirer would make a difference to some voters?
If you’ve never heard of this true fact—and most Americans obviously haven’t—well, that might help to explain why John McCain is behind in the polls.
[...]
And the connection between Alinsky and Barack Obama—and Alinsky and the left in general—is real enough. As John Fund, author of a newly revised book, Stealing Elections: How Voter Fraud Threatens Our Democracy, observes, Alinsky, who died in 1972, was a sort of godfather to all the activist groups that emerged in the 60s and 70s, the most famous (or, if you prefer, notorious) of which today is ACORN.
Fund notes that young Hillary Rodham was such a fan of Alinsky that she traveled to Chicago, four times, to interview him for an adulatory school thesis she was writing. And Obama is an on-the-record fan too: Fund quotes The Washington Post’s Peter Slevin, writing in 2007, “Obama embraced many of Alinsky’s tactics and recently said his years as an organizer gave him the best education of his life.” Slevin further noted that Obama’s and Hillary Rodham Clinton’s “common connection to Alinsky is one of the striking aspects of their biographies.”
OK, so the Alinsky-Obama connection is real.
