Obamachrist Our Lord Swiftboated!
And in the correct sense of the word, too — somebody’s daring to tell the truth about him and his cozy relationship with despicable American terrorist Bill Ayers. And apparently, the King of Kings can’t handle the truth:
Sen. Barack Obama has launched an all-out effort to block a Republican billionaire’s efforts to tie him to domestic and foreign terrorists in a wave of negative television ads.
Obama’s campaign has written the Department of Justice demanding a criminal investigation of the “American Issues Project,” the vehicle through which Dallas investor Harold Simmons is financing the advertisements. The Obama campaign — and tens of thousands of supporters — also is pressuring television networks and affiliates to reject the ads. The effort has met with some success: CNN and Fox News are not airing the attacks.
Bauer’s letter called on the Justice Department to open “an investigation of the American Issues Project; its officers and directors; and its anonymous donors, whoever they may be.”
“This is a sad ploy to circumvent the First Amendment by a campaign who has no arguments with the merits of our ad. It’s the classic maneuver: If you can’t win on the merits, file a lawsuit,” said a spokesman for the American Issues Project, Christian Pinkston, who said his group’s non-profit status allowed it to participate in elections as long as it does a majority of policy work, which it plans to do.
Captain Ed says:
Obama should never have posted defenses of William Ayers and Bernardine Dohrn on his campaign website in the first place. He should have realized that these defenses would make him look as radical as they are, especially with both of them still talking about overthrowing the American system and their mistake in getting out of the underground terrorism business. If the only answer Obama has to counter this is to threaten people who talk about it with criminal prosecution, then he’s essentially confirming everything this ad has to say.
Well, sure he is. What else can he do? The real trouble here is that the radical Leftists and their Dem baglappers simply don’t care about his long friendship with Ayers, and his lying about it. They agree with Ayers, and don’t see what all the fuss is about.
Just don’t question their patriotism, which I supposed I might as well abbreviate from here on out as JDQTP.
Update! GP has the ad the Messiah is trying to suppress through threats and intimidation.
