"Swiftboating" of Obama has begun with media help
by Whocares
Just like with Kerry, the media has jumped on another "swiftboating" of a Democratic candidate for President. This time it is because Obama has been on several committees with a man who in the 60's was part of an a organization called the Weatherman. Now again we have no one saying that Obama was particularly close to the man, but like the "swiftboating" of Kerry the media has gone out of its way to make inferences that there was something to the fact that these two men were conected somehow. Ayers, who has never been convicted of anything is a community organizer in Chicago and Obama gave up very lucrative jobs to help out in his community and thus was on several committees with a man who had beeen part of an organization when Obama was 8 years old. No one even know if Obama was close enough to this man to even know what Ayers background was, but I am sure that the repubs will "find someone whowill say Obama knew and was close to Ayers. Just like they found someone who couldn't have been near the action when Kerry won his silver star but reported he was and said Kerry shouldn't have gotten his medal. Well America, will you once again be fooled by these "Swiftboater", are will you think twice about letting this kind of lies fool you again.
Obama Never Served in the Military of the United States...

He serves with Al Qaeda.

Kerry served in the American Military..

That's not swiftboating revealing Obama's relationship to Al Qaeda...

Whocares...you're missing the difference this time 'round.

The McCain/Rove-gops have been forced by events beyond their control (in order to keep the dough-tap flowing) to concede that they're going Rove. Once they did that, their scheme was toast. Most of what you're seeing on the mainstream media now - of Sarah and McDolt blubbering their fears and hatreds - is in the vein of showing them what they're all about. It's not about furthering their agenda.

McDolt/Sarah lost the upperhand doggone it and dontcha know, when the announced their intent preemptively. You betcha.
