Stark differences: How
GOP, Dems would rule
By JULIE HIRSCHFELD
DAVIS
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — These
are two remarkably differ-
ent visions for governing
America.
Republicans are pledging
to shrink the government, cut
taxes and undo health care
and stimulus laws. President
Barack Obama and Democrats
want tax cuts for the middle
class, more stimulus spending
and an end to the outsourcing
of U.S. jobs.
With Thursday’s release
of the GOP’s “Pledge to
America” — a strongly
worded manifesto promising
to return government to the
people, trim it through deep
spending cuts, and refocus it
on defense and tax cuts —
the two parties have laid out
deeply contrasting agendas
for the next two years.
Less than six weeks before
midterm congressional elec-
tions, it’s promise-making
time for both parties, and vot-
ers are getting some insight
into how the two parties want
to change the country.
Still, many of the vows
on both sides are deliberate-
ly vague. The reality behind
each party’s stirring rhetoric
is that little may change after
Election Day.
Republicans are poised
to add substantially to their
ranks in the contests, perhaps
enough to give them control
of the House and to whittle
Senate Republicans block
campaign finance bill again
By JIM ABRAMS
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Senate
Republicans on Thursday
stood fast in blocking legisla-
tion requiring special interest
groups running campaign ads
to identify their donors.
Mirroring a Senate vote
on the bill last July, all 39
Republicans who voted
stopped Democrats from
bringing the campaign dis-
closure bill to the Senate
floor. The 59-39 vote fell one
short of the 60 needed to
advance the legislation. Two
Republicans didn’t vote.
Republicans dismissed
Democratic efforts to revive
the bill as an attempt to win
political points before the
midterm elections.
The White House-backed
measure is a response to a
5-4 Supreme Court decision
last January overturning a
decades-old law that barred
corporations, unions and other
organizations from spending
on advertising, mass mailings
and other forms of political
activity.
Democrats warned that the
ruling would lead to a deluge
of ads from shadowy special
interest groups financed by
Dems close to delaying
vote on Bush tax cuts
By STEPHEN
OHLEMACHER
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — A
growing number of Senate
Democrats say they proba-
bly won’t consider President
Barack Obama’s call to pre-
serve middle class tax cuts
until after voters choose their
congressmen and senators on
Nov. 2.
“The reality is we are not
going to pass what needs
to be passed to change this
either in the Senate or in
the House before the elec-
tion,” said the Senate’s No.
2 Democrat, Dick Durbin of
Illinois on Thursday.
Even debating the issue
in such a politically charged
atmosphere is in question,
said a second Democrat.
“The climate is not con-
ducive to getting much done
before the election,” said Sen.
Tom Carper of Delaware. “If
I were a betting man, I would
say we deal with them” later
in the fall.
A last-minute, or lame
duck, session of the House
Democrats’ margin of con-
trol to almost nothing in the
Senate.
If Democrats hang onto
power, their majority is vir-
tually certain to be weak-
ened considerably, leaving
them little room to maneuver
on unfinished items on their
agenda, including energy leg-
islation to curb carbon emis-
sions and creation of a path
to legal status for millions of
illegal immigrants.
Either way, it’s a recipe
for likely gridlock, with the
GOP positioned to stymie
Obama on everything from
the budget to immigration
policy. Veto showdowns
could become common, and
neither party would command
enough votes to force through
major initiatives.
The starkest differences
are on spending and taxes.
Republicans want to extend
all of George W. Bush’s
income tax cuts permanently
— at a cost of some $4 tril-
lion over 10 years — and
add new ones including a 20
percent deduction for small
businesses.
Democrats are proposing
to keep the rates where they
are for individuals making up
to $200,000 and for families
earning up to $250,000 — but
to hit wealthier individuals
and some small businesses
with tax hikes in January.
Their plan would cost $3
trillion. They’re also propos-
ing to give investment tax
breaks to small businesses.
corporate millions.
“It’s no longer a premoni-
tion, it’s a reality,” said Sen.
Charles Schumer, D-N.Y.,
a main sponsor of the leg-
islation, pointing to special
interest ads already running
in states such as Ohio and
California with hotly contest-
ed political races.
“We have these nameless,
faceless individuals spend-
ing huge amounts of money,
corporate money and other
money. There is certainly no
transparency whatsoever,”
Democratic Majority Leader
Harry Reid, D-Nev., said.
President Barack Obama
said in a statement that he was
“deeply disappointed by the
unanimous Republican block-
ade.” He said the vote was
a “victory for special inter-
ests and U.S. corporations
including foreign-controlled
ones who are now allowed
to spend unlimited money to

But Senate Republican
leader Mitch McConnell,
R-Ky., said Democrats were
playing “pure politics” in try-
ing to stop opponents from
criticizing Democratic poli-
cies. “They’re trying to rig
and Senate is set to begin Nov.
15 with a few new faces and
far different political outlook.
Democrats still will hold the
majority through the end of
the year, however. House and
Senate Democratic officials
believe the timing would
make it easier to extend the
Bush-era tax cuts set to expire
in January.
But who gets a break on
their tax bill - everyone, or
just what Obama calls the
middle class - would still
likely be the subject of heated
debate.
Enacted in 2001 and 2003
under President George W.
Bush, they were the most
sweeping tax cuts in a gen-
eration. If Congress takes
no action taxpayers at every
income level face signifi-
cant tax increases next year.
Few in Congress support that
option, but any plan to avoid
widespread tax increases next
year would need bipartisan
support in the Senate, and
that has been hard to come by
this year.
Republicans want to
extend all the tax cuts, while

In addition, Democrats want
to impose tax penalties on
companies that move jobs
and factories overseas and to
offer tax breaks for firms that
bring jobs back to the United
States.
On spending, Republicans
say they want to roll the
government back to 2008
levels, although they would
leave intact three politically
untouchable constituencies:
veterans, seniors and the mil-
itary. They say they’d freeze
stimulus projects and impose
hard limits on future spend-
ing, although they did not
propose a ban on earmarks —
the now-infamous practice of
individual lawmakers steer-
ing projects to their districts.
It’s unclear how much
could be saved through these
measures. Most of the $814
billion in stimulus money
has already been spent. The
GOP estimates its cuts would
amount to $100 billion in
savings a year, but budget
experts say the figure could
be far less.
Exempting veterans,
seniors and defense spending
“leaves a pretty small slice of
pie to be whittling away at, and
hard to believe there is $100
billion in savings available as
promised,” Steve Ellis of the
watchdog group Taxpayers
for Common Sense wrote in
an e-mail. “Political promises
come and go, we will have
to see if this product has any
traction or is even remotely
implementable.”
the system to their advantage.
That’s it. It’s quite simple.”
Schumer said Democrats
were prepared to move the
effective date of the bill to
next January so it would not
influence the November elec-
tions, but that offer failed to
win any Republican support.
Republicans also accused
Democrats of playing pre-elec-
tion politics earlier this week
when they united to block
action on a defense policy bill
that would have allowed votes
on opening a path to legal sta-
tus for the children of illegal
immigrants and on ending the
military’s don’t ask-don’t tell
policy for gays.
The campaign finance bill,
which narrowly passed the
House on a largely partisan
vote, would have required
nearly all organizations airing
political ads independently
of candidates or the political
parties to disclose their top
donors and the amounts they
paid.
It would have banned a
variety of political activity
by entities holding a govern-
ment contract worth more
than $10 million and corpora-
tions where foreigners own
more than a majority of vot-
ing shares.
Obama and Democratic
leaders in Congress want to
extend them for individuals
making less then $200,000
and married couples making
less than $250,000.
Senate Majority Leader
Harry Reid Thursday after-
noon had not revealed his
decision on the timing of the
debate. But Durbin described
an election-driven stalemate
unlikely to lift in the next five
weeks, when many lawmakers
up for re-election would prefer
to be home campaigning. All
435 seats in the House, 37 in
the Senate and the Democratic
majority in both chambers are
on the line.
“We are so tightly wound
up in this campaign that it’s
impossible to see a bipartisan
answer to the challenge we
face,” Durbin, the Democrats’
vote-counting whip, said.
“That’s the reality before the
election.”
Senate Democrats dis-
cussed the issue behind closed
doors for more than an hour
Thursday, and emerged with-
out a consensus on how to
proceed.

Fullenkamp leads Minster sweep of St. John’s Bulldogs score early,
By JIM METCALFE

DELPHOS — With

Erica Fullenkamp leading
the way, Minster’s volley-
ball team took down host St.
John’s 25-15, 25-14, 25-18
Thursday in Midwest Athletic
Conference action at Robert
A. Arnzen Gymnasium.
“We focused a lot of
our attention in practice on
knowing where she was all
the time. She is their No.
1 player,” Jays coach Kellie
Sterling observed. “What hurt
us is their other girls real-
ized that and stepped up. I
am sure they are getting used
to that with almost everyone
focused on her. They played
so well off of her; they are
getting opportunities to get
good hitting tries and they
came through.”
Minster head coach Ashley
Rohrer concurred.
“It’s so nice to know you
have someone who will come
through for you no matter
the situation or the opponent.
She is as dedicated as anyone
to the game of volleyball;
it’s her life,” she explained.
“Where she excels is that
she is so team-oriented, she
enjoys setting her teammates
up. Her teammates accept she
is our leader and they aren’t
afraid to follow. What’s hap-
pening is that they realize
teams are loading up on her,
so they need to elevate their
effort, which they have done.
We have a lot of weapons.”

lead of 5-2 on a Minster hit-
ting error. However, the 5-11

Obama and God, once again
In the spring of 2007, candidate Barack
Obama met with a New York Times columnist
and discussed his days as a “little Jakarta street
kid” who once got in trouble for making faces
during Koran classes.
Obama proceeded to recite the opening lines
of the Muslim call to prayer in Arabic, with
what Nicholas D. Kristof called a “first-rate
accent.” Obama described this chant as “one of
the prettiest sounds on Earth at sunset.”
This text, in one English translation, pro-
claims: “Allah is Supreme! Allah is Supreme!
... I testify that there is no god but Allah! ...
I testify that Muhammad is the messenger of
Allah.” These lines are known as the Shahada
-- from the Arabic verb, “to testify” -- and re-
citing them, in public, with the intent of be-
coming a Muslim, is a crucial act in entering
and then practicing the faith.
This is the kind of biographical detail that
keeps complicating matters for journalists who
try to make sense of the poll from the Pew Re-
search Center and the Pew Forum on Religion
& Public Life indicating that 18 percent of
Americans think President Obama is a Muslim,
as opposed to 11 percent in March 2009.
Only 34 percent of those polled said Obama
is a Christian and a stunning 43 percent did not
know his current religion. Among his strongest
supporters, 43 percent of blacks and 46 percent

of Democrats said he is a Christian.
These numbers are strange in light of
Obama’s public testimonies about his con-
version to Christianity, after years of spiritual
struggle.
In his memoir, “The Audacity of Hope,”
Obama confessed that as a young social activ-
ist he realized, “Rich, poor, sinner, saved, you
needed to embrace Christ precisely because
you had sins to wash away -- because you were
human. ... I was finally able to walk down the
aisle of Trinity United Church of Christ one
day and be baptized. ... Kneeling beneath that
cross on the South Side of Chicago, I felt God’s
spirit beckoning me. I submitted myself to His
will, and dedicated myself to discovering His
truth.”
This was an open confession of faith, even if
many conservative Christians choose to reject
the liberal beliefs he has articulated through the

years. During the campaign, the Rev. Franklin
Graham asked Obama if Jesus was the only
way to heaven. “Jesus is the only way for me,”
he responded.
Meanwhile, the Obama team has had dif-
ficulty communicating a clear message about
his faith history. Campaign aides, at first, said
he had never been a Muslim, but later stressed
that he had never been “a practicing Muslim.”
Obama’s family history is hard to describe.
His father was a Muslim from Kenya who be-
came an atheist. His stepfather was a Muslim
who, in Obama’s words, was raised in an era in
which Indonesia offered a tolerant approach to
Islam that blended with “remnants of Hindu-
ism, Buddhism and ancient animist traditions.”
His mother was raised as a Christian, but ad-
opted her own mix of secularism and spiritual-
ity.
While in Indonesia, Obama attended what
he has called a “Muslim” public school and
also a Catholic school. At both schools, ac-
cording to educators interviewed by the Los
Angeles Times, his faith was listed as “Mus-
lim.” School friends recalled that they often
went to the mosque together.
Nevertheless, there is no single, definitive
Islamic approach to questions about the role of
birth and upbringing in establishing a person’s
religious identity.

Graham was only partially right when he
told CNN: “The president’s problem is that he
was born a Muslim. His father was a Muslim.
The seed of Islam is passed through the fa-
ther. ... His father gave him an Islamic name.”
Graham added that Obama has “renounced Is-
lam and he has accepted Jesus Christ. That’s
what he says he has done. I cannot say that he
hasn’t.”
This view of Islamic tradition is much too
simplistic, said Stephen Prothero of Boston
University, author of “God is Not One: The
Eight Rival Religions that Run the World.”
There is more to this debate about faith and
identity than DNA, he stressed.
“As a matter of jurisprudence, however,
there is a presumption that a child born to a
Muslim father is Muslim,” said Prothero, in an
e-mail exchange. “This needs to be followed
up with ACTION, however. ...
“Like Christianity, Islam is a matter of
choice, not inheritance.”

Hiker talks of year in Iran prison

By SAMANTHA GROSS wanted to make sure that I didn’t, that they rants and camping.
The Associated Press “I just had to be sure didn’t manipulate me into saying anything that I The first indication they were near the Iran

NEW YORK — Her 410 days of solitary

confinement in an Iranian prison were most-
ly cramped quarters and endless monotony,
but Sarah Shourd chooses to savor the few
moments of joy: a proposal from her boyfriend
and a birthday celebration complete with a
chocolate cake.
Shourd, her boyfriend Shane Bauer and
their friend Josh Fattal were captured in 2009
while hiking near the Iran-Iraq border. Shourd
talked about her experiences Thursday with The
Associated Press in one of her first interviews
since her release on Sept. 14 after officials in
Oman mediated bail.
One of her happiest days, she said, was the
celebration of her 32nd birthday last month.
Somehow the men, who remain in Tehran’s
notorious Evin Prison, had persuaded a guard
into bringing her the cake and even found a way
to give her a whiff of liberty.
They talked her through a whole imaginary
day that they called a “freedom walk” — from
waking up and having pancakes, to going to a
lake, then walking to her mother’s apartment.
When they came to the part of their story where
the apartment door opened, Bauer and Fattal
spun Shourd around.
“They had brought all the pictures we had
of our family and put them on these boxes, so
everyone was there, and it was a surprise party.
It was beautiful,” she said, her voice catching.
“I cried.”
But most days in prison were far more
monotonous — or terrifying.
She recalled how the three made a vow while
blindfolded in a prison van shortly after their
that I was strong when
I went into the inter-
rogation room because
I wanted to make sure
that I didn’t, that they
didn’t manipulate me
into saying anything that
I didn’t want to say.”
- Sarah Shourd
capture: If they were separated, they would go
on hunger strike until they were reunited.
Shourd starved herself for four days, lying
alone in her cell and growing weaker. In prison,
she kept reviewing her last day of freedom.
What could they have done differently? What
if, when they asked a tea vendor near a water-
fall for advice on a hiking path, they had gone
another way?
On the fourth day, the hikers were reunited
for five minutes. Shourd began eating again, but
their captivity was just beginning.
Alone in her cell, Shourd began going over
multiplication tables in her head. It was the only
way she could keep out thoughts of her mother.
Of whether she knew where her daughter was.
Of how worried she must be. Of whether they
would see each other again.
If she thought of her mother, she began to
fall apart, Shourd recalled.
“I just had to be sure that I was strong when
I went into the interrogation room because I
didn’t want to say,” she said.
She wondered whether she’d be hurt. If sud-
denly the door might open and she’d be dragged
away.
Instead, a few times a day, a female guard
would come bearing layers of extra clothing
and a blindfold, so when Shourd arrived at the
interrogation room she couldn’t see the faces of
her questioners.
She was amazed at their “good cop, bad
cop” approach, just like on TV shows back in
the U.S.
They had her write down what felt like every
detail of her life, from her childhood in Los
Angeles to her time living with Bauer in Syria,
where she taught English and Bauer, a native
of Onamia, Minn., was a freelance journalist.
Fattal, who grew up in Pennsylvania, had come
to the Middle East to visit them.
Over two months, she wrote hundreds of
pages, she said. When she would finish writing
an answer to a question, an interrogator would
tell her “this is not good enough” and tear up her
words. She would write again, and again hear
the pages tear.
“I would just write it the same every time,”
she said.
They questioned her about her e-mails and
about her Skype contacts, looking for any indi-
cation she had intended to come to Iran.
Should says she’d been missing the green
mountains of the U.S. after a year in Syria.
She and Bauer had heard from friends that the
lush lands of northern Iraq had been largely
untouched by the war. So they and Fattal trav-
eled to Ahmed Awa waterfall, where they found
hundreds of Kurdish families eating at restau-
border was three hours into their hike when they
met Iranian officials on a trail leading from the
waterfall. By then, it was too late.
Shourd tried to resist her imprisonment at
first. She constantly yelled, cried or begged her
captors for a phone call. She was confined to
her 10-foot-by-5-foot cell. At night, the bit of
sunlight from the window would dim, but the
lights stayed on.
Eventually, the interrogations ended. The
two men were moved into a cell together. The
three Americans were allowed to see each other,
at first for 30 minutes each day, then for an hour,
then for two.
The trio had local TV, including 15 minutes
of English-language news every day. They
received a bundle of letters from their parents
and siblings about once a month. And they had
books in English. Shourd read the Quran, using
her basic Arabic to communicate haltingly with
some Farsi-speaking guards about religion.
Shourd would spend all day saving up
details to tell the other two. At first, the three
went over what they called “reruns” — review-
ing every memory of their lives in tremendous
detail. When those ran out, they started to
dream of the future and what they would do
on the outside.
Some plans were bigger than others.
On one evening, Bauer asked Fattal to stay in
their cell during their allotted time outdoors, so
that the couple could have a moment alone.
The two sat on a rough wool mat, cockroach-
es skittering around them and dust filling the air.
They held hands, and Bauer asked her to marry
him. He made them engagement rings from two
thin pieces of string.

ATLANTA (AP) — On Sunday mornings, accused mega-
church Bishop Eddie Long is usually draped in regal robes and
dripping with diamonds and platinum — the kind of material
rewards he often says are in God’s plan for those listening.
His message expected this Sunday will be the first in public
since three young men accused him in lawsuits of having sex-
ual relationships with them, which he has vehemently denied
only through his lawyer and a Twitter posting.
Long built his congregation into a megachurch empire, tell-
ing his followers God wanted them to be wealthy and deliv-
ering fiery sermons with a secular swagger. He hangs with
celebrities like rapper T.I. and donates money to charities and
candidates. Even the county sheriff is among his followers.
Long spent more than 20 years building all that up, but his
empire hangs in the balance. And his 25,000 followers aren’t
about to let it all come tumbling down after the three men’s
claims that the bishop abused his spiritual authority.
“I’ve always thought he was a very powerful man of God,”
said Anshay Tull, a 27-year-old attendee of New Birth. “I’m
just praying, trying to stay hopeful that it’s not true. If it is true,
he has to take that up with God. But that can’t take away from
the Word that he gives. I think he’s very gifted.”
He’s preached against gay marriage, and his church has counseled gay
members to become straight — even though the men claim in their lawsuits
that Long used money, cars, international trips, jewelry and other objects to
lure them into sexual relationships when they were 17 or 18 years old.
The Associated Press
The troubles of the U.S. education system are getting a big
screen close-up.
There are no fewer than four education documentaries
slated for release by the end of this year, including “Waiting for
’Superman,”’ a poignant look at the lives of five children hoping
to escape the dismal outcome of students at neighborhood public
schools by winning entrance to a successful charter.
The film by Davis Guggenheim, the Oscar-winning director
of “An Inconvenient Truth,” has already created a stir in educa-
tion circles and opens in New York and Los Angeles Friday.
Those in the education community hope the films will do for
education what “An Inconvenient Truth” did for the environ-
mental movement by putting a much-needed spotlight on the
failures of schools in America.
“In the education reform world, for the last 15 years, people
have been saying, ’We need a movie, like a big movie, to come
along and tell people what is really going on,” said Joe Williams,
the president of Democrats for Education Reform. “Now in one
year we’ve got more than we can handle.”
Also on the list for red carpet treatment: “Race to Nowhere,”
created by a mother-turned activist upset at a high-stakes test
culture in public education; “The Lottery,” which profiles four
Harlem children hoping to win a slot at a charter school; and
“Lunch Line,” a look at the history of school lunch.
