Giving substance to his different kind of politician credentials:
Barack Obama’s campaign is trying to silence the National Rifle Association’s latest ad campaign using strong arm tactics by threatening them with possible legal action if they run the ads:
Failure to prevent the airing of “false and misleading advertising” may be “probative of an underlying abdication of licensee responsibility” Cosmopolitan Broad. Corp v. FCC, 581 F.2d 917, 927 (D.C. Cir. 1978).
So basically, stop running NRA’s ads, or your broadcast license could be in jeopardy. They detail the WaPo’s FactCheck.org repetition as proof. This is Chicago politics at its finest folks. If you can’t win fair, win dirty. This is not how a free society is supposed to function. This is not the kind of man I want leading my country.
Besides, every bit of what NRA claimed is true. It’s the Obama campaign and the news media that’s lying.
Yet the Religious Left continue their swooning:
Many of us know what it means to do the work of faith. The work of faith means believing while working tirelessly to create a just and peaceful society. While doing this work, we sometimes meet hindrances that seem insurmountable, yet we must push forward. While doing this work, we sometimes are faced with arguments and adversarial postures that defy reason, yet we remain committed to the ideals we know to be true and good. While doing this work we sometimes receive challenging news that makes us wonder if we can be successful, yet hold fast to the hope that YES WE CAN make a difference.
Truth defies reason. Lying and intimidation is true and good.
Okeydoke.
UPDATE: Obama's truth squads unleashed:
St. Louis City Circuit Attorney Jennifer Joyce and St. Louis County Circuit Attorney Bob McCulloch are threatening to bring libel charges against those who speak out falsely against Barack Obama.
KMOV aired a story last night, that stated that St. Louis County Circuit Attorney Bob McCulloch and St. Louis City Circuit Attorney Jennifer Joyce, both Obama supporters, are threatening to bring criminal libel charges against anyone who levels what turns out to be false criticisms of their chosen candidate for President.
And of course, they get to define what is or isn't true.
"If you can't win fair, win dirty."
Hope and Change.
