Democrats Seek to Undermine Anti-Obama Author With His Own Words

It is such a shame that political discourse in the US has been reduced to this level. You could write whatever drivel you want, have the Scaife Family buy a million copies to get it on the best seller list, and inject whatever poison you want into the conversation.
It doesn’t even matter if its all lies, the media knows its all lies, and they repeat it is all lies. It gets into the conversation and kills any possibility of any kind of debate of real problems people face.

It should be educational to see if mcCain takes the high road and denounces this tripe or the low road of silence.

I didn’t see anything actually addressing substance in the Obama response. Imagine that.

I feel your pain, Mike. Obama called it “silly season” but it feels a lot worse than “silly” to me.

The unending adolescence is laughable and embarrassing.

eyes open – addressing substance was the mistake Kerry made. “Unfit for Command” was almost entirely false, yet contradicting the batch of lies didn’t keep it from costing Kerry the election. This new book is full of lies too, and if you search the net you can easily find several bloggers addressing them already. But rather than engage a liar point-by-point and give him some sort of legitimacy, the Obama campaign is working towards a knock-out punch right off the bat. It’s a smarter philosophy.

It’s a real disappointment that there are American’s willing to buy this trash after what he did the last time. If anyone ever deserved the title “hate monger” this guy is it. Why can’t the MSM grow up and just ignore him, that would put a stop to his book selling.

It’s a real disappointment that there are American’s willing to buy this trash after what he did the last time.

Why McCain will stay silent… Otherwise he’ll have to admit Obama is the better candidate in this election.

People really are not buying these books. The NYT best-seller list shows an asterisk since its only on the list because of bulk sales. And the MSM doesn’t care if its true or not. They’ll have this guy on because they claim ‘people are talking about it’

Conservatives love guys like this. Conservatives have absolutely zero standards for people as long as they’re “on the right team.”
Honestly, how long did they cover for Mark Foley? How about Sen. Stevens or the countless other criminals in their ranks.
Conservatives don’t care in the least that this bigot is fraud and liar. As long as he’s feeding coal into the Stupidity Engine that is the GOP in 2008.

Let’s take Corsi’s assertions and apply a simple logic test even my pet will take.
According to Corsi(a) “Obama has extensive mmoslem lies”
(b)We also know that Obama was associated with a Christian Pastor-J.Wright who introduced him to his faith.He respected him and later disagreed/and parted after the Pastor’s “divisive” rants.
So if case (a) it can never be (b)
If case (b) then it can never be (a)
Since Corsi is peddling both (a) and (b) any rational mind must conclude that the sewage spewing out of “Obama Nation” is nothing more than a hallucination of a pyschotic mind beffiting overtime for a professional pyschiatrist!

And this is the democracy we want to spread to the world? If you haters can see, it’s not the poor shipping jobs over seas, not the middle class either. Who owns the mortgage companies? You might be loosing your home but someone made money. How can the few deceive so many? Is your hatred For Senator Obama that bad that you hear what you already believe.

You have other tens of millions on the dole who will vote for him regardless of position because he promises to keep pilfering the public largess for them.
Still othes of millions will vote for him simply because he is black, not caring to hear or look at his actual positions.
Other millions will vote for him because they know exactly who he is and what he represents and agree with his anti-American positions.
The first three are all what is termed, useful idiots, a term coined by Lennin for the dupes he got to support him.

In 2007 Barack Obama said that he would meet, in the first year of his presidency and without precondition, with Iran, North Korea, Syria, and Venezuela. Three of those are listed as state sponsors of terror. They fund and support Hezbollah, Hamas, and others, and Iran is actively helping kill our own soldiers in Iraq.
So, by his own words, to meet with these state sponsors of terror without condition, he is an appeaser.

Corsi’s book is so full of lies, it’s just plain sad. For example, he uses a blog posting as a source to say that Obama is lieing about not being muslim. The main stream press should dismantle his book, but if they won’t then others will. The truth will come out this time.

If Barry was white, with that razor thin resume of his, he wouldn’t get elected to community organizer. In fact, with his radical past, he should run in Canada or somewhere that liberals are actually liked!

“I don’t know who gave Corsi a PHD, that university should be ashamed to graduate such scum.”

Could someone tell me what part of the Obama references aren’t true or does the truth really hurt?

Sad, but the folks who are looking to Obama for economic security are the very one who can least afford an Obama presidency and the ones who will get hurt the most. Proposed entitlement programs will surly at least double the national debt, cause the dollar to continue falling and if Obama is left unchecked, will probably cause the first depression since the 1930s. OBAMA’S ECONOMIC PLANS ARE AT LEAST AS FLAWED AS HIS FOREIGN POLICY, HEALTH CARE AND ENERGY POLICIES!!

What’s made this book (sic) a best-seller is the wholesale purchases by flush, right wing nuts in Texas, Nevada, California and South Carolina—75,000 copies in all that will be given away to a few fellow-nuts but with most of the books staying in warehouses until November 5. After that they’ll sell for a dime each.
No minds will be changed by Corsi and it’s silly that the New York Times, CNN, ABC and the rest are succumbing so easily to the Republican strategy of publicizing the book and its whimsical, Matalin supervised content.

It is time to act to curb the temerity and impudence of individuals affecting to interfere in public affairs between Russia and the United States. McCain needs to shut up or be prosecuted.

My book club has chosen this as our book of the month and will be discussing it at our monthly meeting. Most of the members are Clinton supporters who are voting for McCain but we still have a few fence sitters. This should push them to McCain.

McCain has already surrendered to Georgia. Maybe he should be paying attention to America’s interests instead of his advisors’ clients.

“No minds will be changed by Corsi”

The author isnt a saint, but is the content of the book factually correct?
Seems to me that Obama is not disputing any of the facts in the book, so it must be true.

“Seems kind of funny that the dems don’t come back from vacation (i.e. Obama/Pelosi) when major events take place. Most big company execs do. Just wondering.”

Swiftboat Veterans for the Truth!!!!!
Thank the lord that these patriots will educate America about the things that Barry Obama is hiding about his radical past.

Jill ~
You asked, “If we had another 9/11 on his watch … would you rather have Obama or McCain handling it?”
Jill, that’s a no-brainer. I’d rather have the guy who could take in the situation quickly and make a sound, rational decision, rather than the guy with a hair-trigger temper and anger issues so extreme that his own party members call him McNasty and Senator Hothead and say things like,“I dont want this guy anywhere near a trigger.”
Yup, that’s all we need… McCain at the trigger when a diplomatic emergency arises. WWIII, anyone?

Finally – a book about the real Obama! Love the title – so apt! I can’t wait to read it – best seller already! I will definitely buy it and it won’t change my mind about BO – I already know he is not electable. Hope millions of voters come to the same conclusion too!

I put my country first. Because of my love for this country, I will vote for Obama.

Corsi sounds tame compared to the likes of Naomi Wolf or Mark Crispin Miller. But since these people come from a different point of view, we wont expect the critical media barrage on them.

Pamela writes:
“Seems kind of funny that the dems don’t come back from vacation (i.e. Obama/Pelosi) when major events take place.”
Pamela, while the Midwest was flooding, Bush and his MiniMe McCain were at the Bush ranch enjoying birthday cake. When Katrina leveled New Orleans, Condi Rice was shoe shopping in New York. Are these the dems you’re referring to?

So , because he alleges to have a Phd (in what, idiocracy)he has open license to bash anyone, Presidential candidate or not??
So, i go to school (which all most PHD’s are people who couldnt get a job, or get hired for anything relavent)and start digging up opinion on all of you who have posted here, right or wrong.I write a book ,get it published as Non,Fiction even though theres no real truth besides the heresay of other anti-everythings like himself, and you all will preach it like the gospel??\
Wow, i just found a new career path, im goin into literature!!

This is just getting more and more sad with each article. This Corsi should have been a non-issue. But where’s McCain to condemn this behavior? Every time someone from Obama’s camp says something somewhat controversial, Obama there to condemn the remark. This whole publication is controversial because it’s using lies. Come on down McCain, grab your teleprompter and address this. I don’t care if Corsi’s not in the McCain camp, this needs to be called for what it is and bring back a little respect to this sleaze-fest of a campaign. This is making it harder and harder to stomach voting for McCain.

“I like this book of fiction. It is a great read so far. There are wonderful parts about a white robed hero defeating the evil, socialist dragon. ”
(snipped from sb realist)
Obama Nation reminds me of another couple of books.. these of hype based loosely on the fictionalized autobiographies of Barock…..
You believed THOSE, didn’t you?
Well Obama Nation is a heck of a lot moe believable…. and factual… than those!

About the Author
DR. JEROME CORSI received a Ph.D. from Harvard University in political science in 1972 and has written many books and articles, including another No. 1 New York Times best-seller.

The book is Number 1 on the NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER’S LIST

600+ FOOTNOTES to document pretty much everything.
good read

Corsi is a a Ph.D. from Harvard University in political science in 1972.
his book has footnote for almost everything – very well researched

RACE is what this is really about. People don’t want to say that they hate Obama because his skin is black, so they come up with all sorts of nonsense and lies and solemnly announce that they believe it and that’s why they hate him. But its all about race.

Jerome Corsi?
Hardly the most interesting person on the Free Republic website. I used to hang there from time to time. It was always amusing to see what people thought and how they expressed themselves ;-)

I am reading Obama Nation. I have looked up all the footnotes/references that Corsi has provided for each controversial situation regarding B.H. Obama in his book Obama Nation. It seems that Corsi has become the 3rd party in most of his research. In other words, Corsi is just retelling stories that seem to show Obama’s autobiography is full of lies and untruths. Sometimes, Corsi’s vernacular drags by in his attempt to prove a point. But in general, Corsi makes his point that Obama has created a fictional story of his past, and I as a reader am convinced that Corsi has suceeded in telling the truth about B.H. Obama. Read the book and find out for yourself.

yaaaawwwnnnnn.
who cares.

This author distorts the truth just like he did with Kerry and the swiftboat fabrication. At least Kerry fought. Bush didn’t even lift a hand and yet Corsi singled out Kerry to smear.
Obama’s lack of experience? Lately experience counts for very little in the White House. McCain’s just more of the same Bush policies.
Obama “occupying the Oval Office”? A damn site better than what’s in there now. In fact you’d have to search quite far to find someone worse. I’m a former Republican, but Bush and his cronies have ruined it for the moderate Republicans in the party. The uncecessary war in Iraq will cost us more than a decade of excessive social spending. I hope we can get back to moderate ground, ie. moderate Democrat, moderate Republican. McCain’s not it either. He’s flip flopped so much on the issues he’s like a freshly caught trout. He’ll say anything to get elected. But the worst thing about him is that he’s embraced Bush’s failed policies! Obama may be somewhat of an unknown but he’d have to be really bad to screw up worse than Bush did. My vote goes for Obama. The big Iraq mistake trumps all other considerations.

The people below tearing down Obama voted Bush into office TWICE.
TWICE.
You need to look no further to understand why this country is on the brink of ruin and collapse. It doesn’t have anything to do with the politicos. It has everything to do with YOU.
Buy a mirror, have a look, assign some blame.

Corsi apparently hits home well enough
to unnerve a heck of a lot of Ohbama
mouthpieces. They’re EVEYWHERE in print
and on TV. Where’s Ohbama?…..I hope
scrambling for coherent rebuttals to
the main points in the book. He can’t
slick himself through this wicket with
proxies alone.

Very telling reading this comment section…”It’s a best seller!” “He has footnotes for everything!” I’m convinced that this country is full of little pawns whose weak minds can only be filled with supermarket tabloid headlines. Not ONE thought out comment about McCain’s ‘past’, his rolling over for those who stabbed him in the back in 2000, his stand on various issues (look for daily changes based on the political winds)…. No, just blind, puerile hate for a well-educated, VISIONARY candidate.

I think the fact that Corsi’s a 9/11 Truther is most disturbing to the Right; therefore, I’m telling all my RW friends about it.
What a flippin’ crackpot!

Obama thinks we’re all so stupid that he could cover-up his past and either no one would notice or no one would care. Unfortunately, in order to run for president, you have to meet certain qualifications, and Barry Soetoro’s past is about to catch up to him.
Stay tuned. If the Democrats don’t stop him at the convention, the Republicans will stop him before election day. On the flipside, McCain is bumping up against his own problems, which he may or may not be able to outmaneuver.
This is the most fascinating election cycle of my lifetime, and I lived through the 60s. Get your sodas and popcorn ready, don’t take any of it seriously enough to raise your blood pressure dangerously high, and enjoy the show!

“We live in a country where people are pretty much free to say and write whatever they want (at least for the time being) even if those statements are not true or (gasp) might hurt somebody’s feelings.”
This comment is not true, nor should it be. The point of freedom is to allow responsible people the self-determination to control their own lives. When lies and slander are said or written by someone, about someone else, then they are in fact, having their freedom impinged by the lying party. Your reputation is your personal property, and the ability for the truth to be known is important about public figures, instead of confusing the weak minded with propaganda. It’s called libel and slander and its against the law for a good reason.

Corsi is just another standup commedian. Today, all of them resort to insulting everybody they can think of and the drunken audiences cheer, clap and yell. It’s one way to make a living, but does anyone know where the line is that they cross to do so?

Thirty years ago we would have seen an in depth investigation of that facts alledged in the book by at least one of the major networks. We would have seen investigations into the death threats against the author. Then we would see the background checks of the author as part of the story.
Today we see a both sides battling over the author’s background but very little fact checking. That is the low road of the media in this campaign.
Whether you are pro-Obama or anti-Obama, we owe it to our country to find out the truth or falsity of the allegations. It appears the media isn’t going to help. They will lead the news with tales of Obama’s plane scare thus reinforcing the cycle begun in the Obama Girl commercials of his needing protection and trying to evoke sympathy.
This is the most market-driven campaign I’ve ever seen. Nothing of issues, nothing of fact checking, just spin and anti-spin to create emotional bonds to a man who otherwise has no record of achievement and a falsified biography.
We’re being had. In a big way.

Did everyone believe what Obama wrote in his books? Or did they verify the facts?
Obama’s version of his life conflicts with the Corsi’s version.
Can’t the news media confirm which are true?
Lies and more lies — so what are the facts?

Do Libs read??

John,
Corsi is an educated man with a distorted view of the world and his influence in it.

Why so defensive Obama? That fake birth certificate really answered a lot of questions didn’t it?

OBAMA NATION
Amazon.com Sales Rank: #2 in Books
His book is selling like hotcakes. He’ll make a lot of money
Jerome Corsi’s only crime is exposing Barack Obama and John Kerry. You can lie about Corsi and call it a hatchet job
But the truth hurts
You go though either Corsi book and you will find few errors
So Corsi talked some smack on Free Republic. He let off some steam… I could care less

Jake Tapper needs to crack the code on media’s Obama’s “humble beginnings”. For instance: he says his father was a goat-herder from Kenya, ha. He actually finished his education at Harvard and returned as an economic policy wonk for President Kenyatta. His grandmother in Hawaii who raised him was a bank VP, and her husband owned successful furniture stores in Seattle and Hawaii. Both Barack and his sister Maya attended the elite Punahou Prep school in Honolulu, reportedly “on scholarship”. Really? The Indonesian neighborhood where he lived has been reported as upscale. Stanley Ann Dunham ended up with a PhDs, apparently at a time when she was reported as a single mother. Both Obama’s biological father (who had multiple concurrent marriages) and Obama’s step-father, LoLo Soetoro, have been cited as leftist ( some say Marxist) activists.Expensive prep schools, excellent educational credentials for many family members, upscale neighborhoods, world travel, access to high levels of politics, other interesting opportunities. Something doesn’t seem to add up to the humble beginnings spin. Goat herder? My foot. What I want to know does he have an authentic birth certificate?
Barack Hussein Obama, the Affirmative Action candidate.
RW

the Obama campaign is attacking Corsi for one reason only. they can not refute his book. If it were all a pack of lies, they would welcome the chance to attack the charges directly. ALL POLITICO’s attack teh messanger rather than refulte the charges when the charges are based on truth. If Obama were not afraid of the charges, he would provide a list documents refuting each charge individually to the press and on his website. His very cautious response means he is concerned about reveiling too much about someting he does not want known. This tepid response comes from a product of the Chicago political machine, a place know for brickbats. There is a fire burning in this smoke that scares Obama.

Kerry is a big loser. I wouldn’t believe anything that flip flopper said or did. He couldn’t even get elected with all of his wife’s money, Theresa Heinz Kerry. And now he is going to be directing Obama and advising him in his campaign? lolol The Hillary Supporters Count too group thank you Senator Kerry for your unsolicited help in getting John McCain elected. If that isn’t a dying swan song for a campaign I don’t know what is, having Kerry come along on board with you. I’m sorry I voted for him. What a wasted vote! And, I am A LIFELONG DEMOCRAT COMING FROM THE LIKES OF RELATIVES WHO WORKED FOR DAN FLOOD WHEN HE WAS A CONGRESSMAN AND I AM VOTING FOR MCCAIN IN NOVEMBER!! Good riddance to bad rubbish Obama! I hope you get defeated big time in November!

Corsi’s research is from Internet data. There is a LOT of Internet news about Corsi that he will claim is false. Therefore why would anyone believe what he writes. I heard his books were bought up by Neo-Con groups to give the apperance that it’s a POPULAR BOOK! It’s FICTION.
