Shame, Cubed by Bill Whittle on National Review Online
Obama has clearly spelled out what he believes. He just doesn't talk about it on the campaign trail.
Just a week before the election, some of the Obama's paper trail is starting to get attention. But is it too late to matter?

Breitbart caught misrepresenting the facts
Archbishop criticizes Obama, Catholic allies
Where is the factual, impartial coverage?? This statement suggests that Archbishop Chaput's position excludes consideration of any issue other than abortion, which is a misrepresentation of Chaput's (and the Church's) position. The Church teaches that all these issues are important, but they are NOT all equally important. There is a hierarchy of issues and rights, and some are more foundational that others. Some are so important -such as those regarding the deliberate taking of human life- that they take precedence over secondary issues.
Is protection of the spotted owl really as important as protecting human beings from being deliberately exterminated? Both are important, but they are not equally important.
For example, it is because of this hierarchy of rights that our right to own private property does not include the right to make other persons our property as slaves. Individuals have an absolute right not to be treated as property. Such foundational rights set limits to secondary rights. These foundational rights deserve primary attention when we elect individuals to public office. Do they recognize and respect these certain, inalienable rights? If not, how can they be trusted to respect or defend any rights at all, and on what basis?
Breitbart... misrepresenting facts -whether through carelessness or premeditation- is not journalism, it's manipulation.
"While Chaput has won praise from traditionalist Catholics for stressing opposition to abortion as a foundational voting issue, voices on the Catholic left have sought to apply church teachings to war, poverty, the environment and other issues."

Quasi-socialist compares domestic socialist to foreign socialists
McCain compares Obama to European socialists - Yahoo! News
"Republican presidential candidate John McCain compared Barack Obama to socialist leaders in Europe on Saturday, saying his rival wants to raise taxes on the wealthy to give money to the poor."
This is very true, and one of the points that Mr. McCain needs to hammer energetically until the election, if he is to have a chance of winning. But it's a tough case for him to make, because his own policies are badly polluted with plans to "spread the wealth".
For example: his mortgage buy-out plan, and his health-care plan.
