And The Swiftboating of Obama Begins
posted in Politics, Social Commentary | | | View blog reactions | Print This PostWell it’s not now just beginning but they’re revving it up.
Obama’s swift boat, clearly, from the republicans, the Clinton Campaign and from the media; is that he’s either an outright Muslim Manchurian candidate sleeper, or at least an anti-Jew sympathizer.
Tim Russert asked Obama about Farrakhan endorsing him, more or less, at a Nation of Islam (NOI) conference. I wrote about Obama denouncing Farrakhan in my piece
Did Barack Obama Just Pull a Bill Clinton “Sister Souljah Moment”, back in January.
It’s funny that Russert would bring it up now when he denounced or rejected; which ever term makes Senator Clinton feel good in her Clintonese speak of “it depends on what the meaning of the word is, is”, when he denounced it 5 weeks ago. I guess I follow presidential news more closely than NBC New’s Washington Bureau Chief who gets paid to follow this stuff fulltime, all day long. That’s real curious.
As to the quote where Obama’s pastor has said that if Obama’s supporters found out that he (Jeremiah Wright) had taken a trip to Libya with Farrakhan in 1984 that his Jewish support would dry up; I read that back then as well when researching the aforementioned piece. I guess Tim’s just finding out, because if he’s not it’s curious he didn’t ask the last time he moderated a debate.
This the day after the Clinton campaign leaked a pic showing Obama in traditional Muslim dress [edited 3/3: we’ve founded out that it isn’t even muslim dress, just tribal elders gear] over his kakis and polo during a five country African tour, something that a great many politicians, including Senator Clinton has done her self; and only hours after a McCain surrogate at his rally today made a point to referring to him as “Hussien” repeatedly. But the subtext is that this guy has called Obama a “sleeper cell” and “Muhammad” on the radio airwaves recently.
This is all again not new in and of itself, for instance; right before the Iowa Caucus vote and in early primary states, just days before the vote; massive emailing went out claiming Obama as a sleeper Muslim. Coincidently I’m sure…that it happened specifically in the states that were about to vote…just coincidence.
Thing is now the operatives seem to be revving it up; and loving the salaciousness that “Willie Horton-ing” Dukakus brought to the “news” airwaves and “swiftboating” Kerry brought; the media is all for going right along with it.
The media wants to look like it actually has integrity by going hard against candidates, particularly if its one they’re accused of having favor for; plus this type of stuff fits into their simpleton, doldrum, yellow journalism way of doing “news” these days, as opposed to breaking down the candidates positions on important issues.
Expect more of this. I’ve already been hipped to some of the “kitchen sink” tactics coming down the pike.
And Hillary can stop with her fiegning of Jewish loving integrity, Bill’s good best buddy from Arkansas Paul Fray says she called him a “fucking Jew bastard”
