Obama Responds: Enough is Enough! | Next Stop on the Straight-Talk Express

There has been a recurring theme, of late:

“I don’t care what they say about me, but I love this country too much to let them take over another election with lies and phony outrage and swift boat politics. Enough is enough.”

The New York Times has an interesting article about Barack Obama defending himself over the lipstick on a pig garbage.

The Republicans published an advertisement that asserted that Barack Obama made sexist remarks.

Obama Takes the Controls of the Straight-Talk Express

There is this game going on right now in this presidential campaign, and it could particularly cost the Democrats this Presidential election–especially because this is our election to lose.  The entire UNIVERSE is fed up with the Bush Administration and the Republican party letting corporations, big-oil, and big-government run amuck.

Now is clearly the time to restore some sanity to our country, and now is CLEARLY the time to restore the United States to pre-bush levels on just about everything: privacy, economy, world standing, military levels, etc.

Instead, we are playing this game since the VERY moment that Sarah Palin was announced as Vice President.

  • Karl Rove and Steve Schmidt have held up a blank canvas.
  • John McCain and Sarah Palin are painting their WILDEST fantasies upon that canvas.
  • The MEDIA are ooohhing and ahhhhhing over the contents of the canvas.
  • No one is addressing the facts versus the fiction that is emerging on that canvas.

The problem is that Barack Obama is waiting for the media (or someone else) to correct those falsehoods.  The media is eating up the website traffic, tv traffic and newspaper sales.  And the liars are patting themselves on the back in disbelief that this scheme is working.

Steve Almond, a writer at the Huffington Post, has done a little fictionalizing.  His fiction is what would happen if Barack Obama actually called the Republican liars what they are–liars.  Almond posits that if Barack Obama was strong about it (the same truth and strength we would want from him as President of the United States), that it would force the media to deal with it.  And, us outsiders could watch us win the election . . . as opposed to the liars stealing another one . . . .

Fact Check: The Obama Campaign video refutes the McCain Campaign falsehoods

I like the Obama Camp’s style: Calm and collected fact checking. It is good journalism, and it will make a wonderful shift in the behavior and operation of the Executive Branch.

Here’s the Obama campaign video refutes the McCain campaign falsehoods in last Friday’s advertisement.

Conservative Watch: HumanEvents.com–Spreading Lies through Advertising?

obama_exposed.jpgI have been watching this ad display for this site called Human Events.  The text said, Barack Exposed–playing off of some infamous document traveling around, and the Swift-Boater-Creating-Lies mentality that Barack Obama has some secret life that NO ONE on the planet knows.

On a side note: The postulate that there is a Secret Life of Barack Obama is REALLY hilarious.  Right now, the FBI and CIA are reading every email and listening to every phone call on the planet LEGALLY because our Congress passed the Patriot Act a second time.

In addition to this, common sense of the believers of this theory has simply washed completely out of their heads.  Do you think you can be in Congress and participate in the decision making process of the United States of America without a BACKGROUND CHECK?

Apparently, a group of Americans are spreading hate-based lies about Barack Obama because they believe they have some information that the government has overlooked.  Sounds a lot like a zombie-like character defamation orchestrated by Karl Rove and implemented by Rush Limbaugh by his ditto-heads.

Okay, digression over.

So, I finally went for a visit to this Human Events website, and discovered that they are a collection of ultra-conservative articles.  So, their advertising sucks, but maybe something valuable lives on that website.
