]]> News > Alternative {ISSUES > BIAS AND BALANCE} - Limbaugh falsely claimed "[t]here's no evidence" Obama wrote anything before Dreams from My Father "except a poem" http://articles.world-of-newave.info/society/issues/business/media/bias-and-balance/limbaugh-falsely-claimed-t-here-s-no-evidence-obama-20081033312.htm http://articles.world-of-newave.info/society/issues/business/media/bias-and-balance/limbaugh-falsely-claimed-t-here-s-no-evidence-obama-20081033312.htm Mon, 13 Oct 2008 23:48:27 GMT On the October 10 broadcast of his nationally syndicated radio show, Rush Limbaugh played several audio clips of Sen. Barack Obama reading from his book, Dreams from My Father, and falsely claimed, "There's no evidence that Obama has ever written anything prior to this except a poem. ... [W]e haven't seen anything that he wrote at Harvard Law, when he was at Columbia, any of the tests that he's written." Limbaugh also baselessly suggested Obama did not write Dreams because "[h]e doesn't talk this way," and repeated the baseless allegation that there is a connection between former Weather Underground member William Ayers' written work and Obama's, because Ayers "does write very well." Contrary to Limbaugh's claim that "[t]here's no evidence that Obama has ever written anything prior to" Dreams, "except a poem," Politico reported on August 22 that it found an "an unsigned -- and previously unattributed -- 1990 article" in the Harvard Law Review about "the question of whether fetuses should be able to file lawsuits against their mothers" and that the Obama campaign "provided a statement on Harvard Law Review letterhead confirming that the unsigned piece was Obama's." Further, a July 30 post by reporter Jodi Kantor on The New York Times blog, The Caucus, stated: "We've asked four legal experts to take a look at then-Professor Barack Obama's course materials and offer some insight into what they say about Mr. Obama's teaching methods, priorities and approach to the Constitution." After providing the experts' analyses of Obama's course materials, Kantor posted eight years worth of exams Obama wrote while he was a professor at the University of Chicago, as well as a syllabus. Moreover, Limbaugh provided no evidence that Obama did not write Dreams. In connecting Obama's book to Ayers' work, Limbaugh cited WorldNetDaily columnist Jack Cashill. In an October 9 article for the conservative Web magazine American Thinker, Cashill theorized that Ayers wrote Dreams, arguing that Ayers "writes surprisingly well and very much like 'Obama,' "and that "when Ayers speaks, even off the cuff, he uses a cadence and vocabulary consistent with his memoir. One does not hear any of Dreams in Obama's casual speech." Cashill has devoted several WorldNetDaily columns to advancing this claim. From the October 10 broadcast of Premiere Radio Networks' The Rush Limbaugh Show: LIMBAUGH: From Obama, reading from his book, Dreams From My Father: A Story of Race and Inheritance. Now, this is a key passage. He is admitting, in this passage of his book that he reads himself, to his own radicalism. He says he couldn't escape it if he tried. Here we go. OBAMA [audio clip]: Black nationalism provided that history. An unambiguous morality tale that was easily communicated and easily grasped. A steady attack on the white race, the constant recitation of black people's brutal experience in this country, served as the ballast that could prevent the ideas of personal and communal responsibility from -- LIMBAUGH: Stop the tape. Stop it, stop -- stop it. Ed, stop it. What is this? Ballast? He doesn't talk this way. You know, there are stories out there he may not have written this book. There's a guy named Jack Cashill -- Cashill -- not sure how he pronounces it --- who's gone back and he can't say for sure. But he's read Ayers' books. So Obama -- in both these books -- Obama first submitted a manuscript, it took him 10 months to do it; the publisher rejected it. It was worthless. So, he went back -- they'd given him a big advance -- I'm really shortening the story here, and now, Jack Cashill has compared some of these passages in Obama's book to Bill Ayers, who does write very well. There's no evidence that Obama has ever written anything prior to this except a poem, and the poem was as dumb as "A River, Rock, and a Tree" [sic] that Maya Angelou did at the Slickster's inauguration back in 1993. There's no evidence that he has any kind of -- we haven't seen anything that he wrote at Harvard Law, when he was at Columbia, any of the tests that he's written. But if you listen to the -- if you read his books, you listen to his audio reading of the book here, you don't hear this when Obama goes out and speaks.

Barack Obama's book, Dreams from My Father , Rush Limbaugh falsely claimed that "[t]here's no evidence that Obama has ever written anything prior to this except a poem." In fact, Obama reportedly authored an article for the Harvard Law Review in 1990.

All of the resorts are directly on the beautiful beaches throughout Mexico. Grand Mayan Resorts has locations in PUERTO VALLARTA, NUEVO VALLARTA (near Puerto Vallarta known as the “new” Puerto Vallarta), THE RIVIERA MAYA (in Cancun), ACAPULCO (brand new location), and PUERTO PENASCO. There are additional locations a available rooms at the SeaGarden and Mayan Resorts. They are both very nice resorts, but are not as high quality as the GRAND MAYAN. This option is available if your preferred location is not available at the location that you desire at the GRAND MAYAN. You can also review the resorts at the links below. All of Grand Mayan resorts are five star resorts. The room that I have available is called the “Grand Master Suite.” The “Grand Master Suite” has a main living area with a full kitchen, dining room, and a living room. On each side of the living area is a Master Bedroom. Each Master Bedroom has a full size bathroom with a huge Jacuzzi tub in one of the bathrooms, double sinks, separate shower, and isolated toilet.

]]> Regional > North America > United States > California > Metro Areas > San Francisco Bay Area > Travel and Tourism > Lodging {NORTH AMERICA > LODGING} - Thanksgiving week in Cancun at Mayan Palace (Nov 22 - Nov 29) (Cancun, Mexico) $975 2bd http://articles.world-of-newave.info/regional/north-america/united-states/california/metro-areas/san-francisco-bay-area/travel-and-tourism/lodging/thanksgiving-week-in-cancun-at-mayan-palace-nov-20080938919.htm http://articles.world-of-newave.info/regional/north-america/united-states/california/metro-areas/san-francisco-bay-area/travel-and-tourism/lodging/thanksgiving-week-in-cancun-at-mayan-palace-nov-20080938919.htm Thu, 11 Sep 2008 05:06:34 GMT We have a 2 BR unit for November 22nd to November 29th, 2008 (Thanksgiving is on November 27th) at the Cancun Mayan Palace Cancun Mayan Palace Resorts in Cancun, Mexico. The Mayan Palace resorts are some of the best 5 star resorts in Mexico. We have a large 2 Bedroom suite that accommodates a maximum of 8 people (6 adults and 2 children) with 2 separate full baths, a full kitchen (including all utensils, plates and flatware) and a living room with TVs in all rooms. The living room also has a pull out bed (I believe it is a queen). I also have the golf package which means that you can play golf at the resort (though you still have to pay for it) - their golf courses are beautiful and you can hire a caddy for yourself. I am asking $975/OBO for 8 days/7 nites (Saturday checkin). This is a great deal compared to what you would pay to stay there at their nightly rate which varies from $250 to $350+ per nite. Amenities at the Riviera Maya Cancun resort for example include: Luxurious guest rooms and suites with exclusive services and amenities One quarter of a mile beachfront property 3 interconnected pools — over 1000 feet, one of the longest in Latin America Kayaks, snorkeling, and diving Kids Club Cyber Café Pasel Boutique for beach essentials, handicrafts and gifts Mayan Palace Beauty Store Restaurants: Tumtah, Tramonto, and Del Lago—featuring local specialties and continental cuisine Balché Snack & Pool Bar 2 Tennis Courts Nicklaus Design Golf Course (18 hole par 54) Themed evening programs Here is a review from someone who used the cancun resort: "My Mum and I had an absolutely fabulous time at the Mayan Palace. It was exactly what we needed! We felt very lazy and very spoiled! The pool area is one of the best I've seen, with three levels of cascading infinity pools and plenty of chairs and palapas for shade (ideal for those of us with very fair skin!). All of the pools are deep enough to swim but shallow enough to stand up, and there are areas for smaller children. They have a whole program of activites - for children, and for adults. One of the things that struck us when we were there is that there were people from everywhere - many of the guests were Mexican, some from Europe, many from the US, and very normal people, of all shapes and sizes - not just the beautiful people, and many with small children. We felt very comfortable. Thank you again for sharing your weeks with us - and for making our holiday, not just possible, but very special." Here is a review I received from someone who used our unit at the Nuevo Vallarta Mayan Palace in the past: "I just wanted to thank you for our amazing trip. We all decided that it was the best vacation we have ever had. The golf was fantastic and the kids were busy from 9 in the morning until 9 at night. We are trying to get a reservation for the week of February 19th (2005) during the kids winter break. If you're interested in selling your 2005 week and you think you could get in for that week in February, we would definitely be interested. Either way...we had an incredible time!" Last year we went to the one in Nuevo Vallarta - the resort was on the beach, had the second largest pool in Latin America (our 3 year old had a phenomenal time in the different pools) and we took my parents with us. It was a relaxing and rejuvenating time. Here is a description of the resort: "Enjoy oceanfront restaurants and snack bar: Rouge wine bar with a large selection of wines from around the world, a lobby bar, disco, arcade, and lounge bar with pool. Enjoy the kayaks, electric boats, minitrain, and cyber cafe. Play at our 18-hole par 71 golf course designed by Jim Lipe, and visit the Green Break restaurant. The swimming pool is the second largest in Latin America. Kaana Spa offers a large selection of massages and beauty treatments, a workout room, sauna, steam room, and Jacuzzi."
