Will The Media Ever Report That Obama's Lying?

Absolutely incredible. Of all the items at this site - the hyper-links to the one below no longer exist. And in that article is proof that Obama is lying on his Fight the Smears website as of today.

Case Study: Chicago-The Barack Obama Campaign Monday 18. of October 2004 Age: 4 yrs 
ACORN's history of nonpartisan electoral work (voter registration and voter turnout) and leadership development combined during the March, 2004 primary season to make a big difference in the level of participation of our communities in that important election.

Sweetness and Light had it on Oct 4 - now the Cleveland Leader and Gateway Pundit are onto it, too.

This man, Barack Hussein Obama is flat-out lying about his past and his Leftists buddies are helping him to hide the evidence. But thanks to web archiving it's still coming out.

It's ridiculous that anyone should trust anything Obama says anymore, such is his willingness to lie time and time, again. It's a tactic right out of Saul Alinsky's book.

And it goes beyond simple journalistic malpractice if the media doesn't report this. It's all but criminal given the media's special protections under the Constitution and it's morally indefensible given their charge to inform the American people.

Obama is just not a man you can trust to tell the truth. And he's now absolutely unfit, as well as unqualified, to assume the Presidency of the United States.

"And he's now absolutely unfit, as well as unqualified, to assume the Presidency of the United States."

Yes patriots, America needs a feeble old man who can't even get his thoughts straight "at the tiller". We've had 8 years of a stammering incompetent and still "the fundamentals of this economy are STRONG". It would be a SHAME if the old timer had to shuffle off in defeat to one of his 8 houses on 11/5. America is BETTER than that.

My fellow prisoners, John McCain's anger will impress Wall St. greatly. All will be well.

I say mission accomplished, old man! The surge WORKED!

Washington, Oct 9 - House Republican Leader John Boehner (R-OH) today issued the following statement following mounting allegations of voter registration fraud perpetrated by the left-wing group ACORN:
“The latest allegations of voter registration fraud by ACORN are further evidence that this group cannot be trusted with another dollar of the taxpayers’ money.
“Election cycle after election cycle, this organization has been at the forefront of breaking the law in order to promote their left-wing agenda. All the while, they have been the recipients of millions of dollars of federal funding through various federal programs and third-party groups. House Republicans took at stand recently to cut off funding to an ACORN slush fund created by their allies in the House Majority, but now more must be done.
“All federal funding to ACORN must be stopped. The ACORN slush fund must be disbanded. Sources of federal funding through the Department of Housing and Urban Development or any other agency must be stopped. Contracting for services between candidates for federal office and ACORN, as Senator Obama has done, must end. Now that the taxpayers own Fannie Mae, any funding from Fannie Mae’s nonprofit foundation to ACORN must stop.
“ACORN spent decades promoting the housing policies that brought America’s economy to the brink, and similarly over the years has committed fraud on our system of elections, making American voters question the fairness and accuracy of the exercise of their most fundamental right under the Constitution. Now it is time to cut off ACORN before it grows even more destructive.”

Since the federal takeover of Fannie Mae, isn’t the funding of ACORN, from the affordable housing trust fund while being contracted for work by the Obama campaign, a violation of the “Hatch Act" ?

I find your claims unclear. The excerpt you quoted says that Acorn helped Obama in 2004. I don't see where Obama denies getting that help. He does deny helping Acorn.

Please clarify.

HARRY REIDS RESPONSE TO THESE ALLEGATIONS-

"Are you calling Barry Hussien a liar because he is black?"

Obama Ran ACORN Power Training Classes
And they in turn helped get him elected.

From the Winter 2003 issue of Social Policy:

ACORN noticed him when he was organizing on the far south side of the city with the Developing Communities Project. He was a very good organizer. When he returned from law school, we asked him to help us with a lawsuit to challenge the state of Illinois’ refusal to abide by the National Voting Rights Act, also known as motor voter. Allied only with the state of Mississippi, Illinois had been refusing to allow mass-based voter registration according to the new law. Obama took the case, known as ACORN vs. Edgar (the name of the Republican governor at the time) and we won. Obama then went on to run a voter registration project with Project VOTE in 1992 that made it possible for Carol Moseley Braun to win the Senate that year. Project VOTE delivered 50,000 newly registered voters in that campaign (ACORN delivered about 5000 of them).

Since then, we have invited Obama to our leadership training sessions to run the session on power every year, and, as a result, many of our newly developing leaders got to know him before he ever ran for office

Also, as the person directing funds for grants on the Woods Fund, Obama directed millions to ACORN. He paid 800 thousand dollars to ACORN for get-out-the-vote efforts and misreported those funds on SEC filings. he has promised to amned the filings, but has yet to do so.

[chris]

You idiots sound like the crew of the Titanic offering deck chairs to passengers as the ship is sinking.

Maybe McCain can run again in 4 years. Imagine how much more experience he'll have then!

[Fred Beloit]

And think how much more adept and experienced you will be at covering up President (gag) Obama's missteps, chris.

[chris]

So true. Look at how good you 22%ers have gotten over the last 8 years making excuses for that nitwit.

[Rambo]

WILL THE MEDIA EVER REPORT THAT OBAMA IS LYING?

No.
If someone had entered Judge Ito's courtroom with a videotape of the murders of Nicole Brown and Ron Goldman THAT SHOWED OJ HACKING THEM TO DEATH.

The jury would have still aquitted OJ Simpson.

This is NOT about the truth. It is NOT about honesty. It is about WINNING.

p.s. Anyone else concerned about people like this controlling a large share of the US economy?
Anyone?

[templar knight]

Settle down, chris. Since you are now a budding capitalist, you ought to shut up and go check on the Stock Market. In and out trading takes a lot of time, and you're losing money over here at Dan's blog. And since we found out you're now a money-grubbing capitalist, most of what you say here doesn't amount to shit.

[Rambo]

"Obama is just not a man you can trust to tell the truth. And he's now absolutely unfit, as well as unqualified, to assume the Presidency of the United States".

TRUE.

Do you want this charlatan running a government that can now make or break the world economy?!
WAKE-UP, AMERICA!!

[chris]

"And since we found out you're now a money-grubbing capitalist, most of what you say here doesn't amount to shit.'

You sound a little angry there. It's a tough time to be an oilman I guess. How's the hero doing? Did they give him a new costume for the new job?

[templar knight]

"Did they give him a new costume for the new job?"

Actually, the uniform of the Old Guard is different from the Class A's, and has a dark blue jacket over lighter blue pants. Sharp uniform if I say so myself.

As for anger, not at all, chris, as I'm glad you've joined the rest of us capitalists. And it's not tough at all being an oilman. If you had been following the conversation over the past year, you would know our company had switched from being primarily oil related to being primarily gas oriented. Hell, I didn't spend the last year in Arkansas for nothing, and I'm now stuck in Shreveport, La. So that should tell you something.

I am also interested in a clarification. Dan, I don't dismiss the possibility that Obama may be telling lies, but I don't see the case made here. I also don't see it made in your previous articles that accuse Obama of lying.

So lay it all out. Find the articles, save them somewhere. Then give us one post with the details that we can read and learn for ourselves. I don't want to spend the next few weeks reading big headline accusatory posts with nothing backing them up.

Moldy

[ET]

tk, why do you engage with chris? Let's blackball him and his butt buddy, the boobster. The add nothing to the conversation. Dan levels charges at Obama and they come back with 'McCain is old' and 'the surge worked!'

The assholes are starved for the attention they never got from their daddy's. why give it to them now. If we all ignore them, they will fade away and we can get back having adult conversations.

LOLS!

Ok, but seriously, the DOW opened down another 600 points and people are going into complete panic mode. No one gives a flying rat's ass about how many miles Louis Farrakan lived from Barry O's house.

"-- It's ridiculous that anyone should trust anything Obama says anymore, such is his willingness to lie time and time, again. It's a tactic right out of Saul Alinsky's book. --"

ZOMG! Saul Alinsky invented lying?! I am simply floored. Why hasn't Drudge jumped on this yet?

Hahaha, the Social Policy memory hole article once appeared on Obama's site.

they also scrubbed it from there as well.

"--
Re “Politics of Attack” (editorial, Oct. 8) and “Obama and ’60s Bomber: A Look Into Crossed Paths” (front page, Oct. 4):

As the lead federal prosecutor of the Weathermen in the 1970s (I was then chief of the criminal division in the Eastern District of Michigan and took over the Weathermen prosecution in 1972), I am amazed and outraged that Senator Barack Obama is being linked to William Ayers’s terrorist activities 40 years ago when Mr. Obama was, as he has noted, just a child.

Although I dearly wanted to obtain convictions against all the Weathermen, including Bill Ayers, I am very pleased to learn that he has become a responsible citizen.

Because Senator Obama recently served on a board of a charitable organization with Mr. Ayers cannot possibly link the senator to acts perpetrated by Mr. Ayers so many years ago.

I do take issue with the statement in your news article that the Weathermen indictment was dismissed because of “prosecutorial misconduct.” It was dismissed because of illegal activities, including wiretaps, break-ins and mail interceptions, initiated by John N. Mitchell, attorney general at that time, and W. Mark Felt, an F.B.I. assistant director.

Yikes, what ever happened to faith based initiatives? Those were all the rage eight years back.

Oh the times, they are a-change'n.

[chris]

"Dan levels charges at Obama and they come back with 'McCain is old' and 'the surge worked!''

So now you're saying that the surge didn't work? It's hard to keep up with you conservative-types.

[Worst President Ever]

"Do you want this charlatan running a government that can now make or break the world economy?!"

Shoulda thought about that eight years ago.

[Philip McDaniel]

“As the lead federal prosecutor of the Weathermen in the 1970s ... I am amazed and outraged that Senator Barack Obama is being linked to William Ayers’s terrorist activities 40 years ago…”

He’s not. He’s being linked with Ayers’s ongoing socialist plans. He is also being linked, rightly, to The New Party. These two and others of their ilk are up to their neck in a conspiracy the likes of which this country has not seen since the 30’s.

And as a person who lived in Detroit, Michigan during the 70’s and was quite aware of the Weathermen organization, Mr. Ibershof, I believe you are either ill informed or deliberately sowing obfuscation.

[ET]

You are an idiot, chris, and that is the point. No matter what argument is put forth, you and your moron friend chant your slogans...and not even the slogans change! Take your finger our of your nose and get a job.

BTW, this is the last time I will violate my own banishment of the chrisboob. Piss off.

[chris]

Oh ok, so the surge did 'work'. That's more like it. Listen to you calling me an idiot when you're changing your position every 10 minutes! So were you for the surge before you were against it or against the surge and now for it?

We live in very confusing times and you conservative-types aren't making things any easier.

[North Dallas Thirty]

And furthermore, as we find out, Ayers and Dohrn never gave up their terrorist beliefs; they just started teaching them to schoolchildren.

http://perfunction.typepad.com/perfunction/2008/10/video-rise-of-bill-ayers-ied-maker-obama-mentor.html

Guess the leftists support that. Bob and his leftist ilk have already threatened violence and attacks if the Obamamessiah loses; we should expect nothing less than Bob and his fellow terrorists like Ayers who support and endorse Obama to start bombing police stations and trying to sneak nail bombs into military bases.

[mary]

The Democratic Candidate Should be called "Teflon". that should be his new nickname.

How the heck does he manage to make sure that everyone "tows the line" and doesn't dare bring up a single controversial issue or ask a single question he doesn't feel like answering?

The guy hijacked a town hall meeting. It looked very different from any town hall meeting I've ever seen. Even SNL saw what a ridiculous exercise the alleged "town hall meeting" was as they were able to deftly make fun of it. I mean since when do alleged ordinary Americans have to read their own questions? And no one read them well, btw.

[Worst President Ever]

While McLame turns increasingly desperate, and his campaign increasingly ugly, Obama continues to gain support.

http://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/2008/latestpolls/index.html

McLame should pray the uglinesss of his campaign doesn't spur one of his supporters to violence. That'll put McLame into the history books, but not for what he'd like.

******
Mary: I'm not sure what you mean by "hijacked". The format wasn't biased towards either candidate - it was set by the debate commission through negotiations with both campaigns.

[neelynzus]

This isn't about McCain. It's about Obama. He is a corruption enabler.

Obama has never in his political career confronted and opposed corruption or political patronage. During his time in the Illinois Legislature, with the Annenberg Challenge, the Woods Foundation, and in the US Senate he has pandered to and for his political supporters and power brokers. He is the poster boy for systemic corruption in politics and his disciples are either co-conspirators or dupes.

Without the cover given him by the advocacy media, he would be down 20%. The margin for Obama is currently occupied by the ignorant who are maintained by media attacks on McCain and supression of negative information about Obama.
