Obama Campaign Trying Desperately To Silence Critics

August 28, 2008 · Filed Under Barack Obama

It really is incredible the lengths to which Barack Obama’s campaign will go to stifle any criticism about their man. If anyone so much as questions a single thing Barry ever says, his campaign immediately calls that person a “smear merchant” and howls about “swiftboating.” There even trying to get a wealthy conservative who paid for a TV spot attacking Obama about Bill Ayers thrown in jail.

They’ve actually written letters to the DOJ asking for an investigation. You would think given the amount of illegal money floating around the Obama campaign from rich thugs like George Soros, Obama wouldn’t want the DOJ anywhere near this election. I guess it’s just another example of Barack Obama’s bad judgment — like when he was wrong about the surge.

Obama’s campaign of intimidation swung into high gear yet again when conservative writer Stanley Kurtz appeared on Milt Rosenberg’s radio program in Chicago. Kurtz has been investigating Obama’s relationship to terrorist Bill Ayres and after a lengthy fight with the University of Chicago, was given access to thousands of pages of documents. The documents reveal a very close working relationship between Ayres and Obama that is deeper than anyone could have imagined.

The Obama campaign sent out an urgent message to supporters asking them to flood the radio station with calls and emails to try and disrupt Kurt’s appearance. The campaign argued that if Rosenberg was going to have a “smear merchant” like Kurtz on to spread lies, at least he could have someone on to rebutt the “lies.”

Only problem there is that Rosenberg repeatedly asked the Obama campaign to send someone a 1/4 of a mile down the road to his radio station to appear with Kurtz. Rosenberg tried to get anyone from the Obama campaign to come on and they refused. He even read the name of the Obama aide he spoke with on the air who refused to send someone.

It’s pretty obvious that Obama can’t refute the documents and so the tactic is to bully and intimidate anyone who dare’s to speak out against him. The media has thus far refused to investigate Barack Obama and as far as his campaign is concerned it’s gonna f*cking stay that way.

Michelle has a lot more on this particular incident, including what some of the documents Kurtz has actually say.

When Barack says he’ll bring change, I have no doubt about that. If we have Obama and a far left Congress running this country, you can say goodbye to free speech.

UPDATE:

Listen to the radio interview the Obama campaign tried so desperately to squash.
