Missouri Law Enforcement Targeting Anyone Who Unfairly Attacks Obama

September 26, 2008 · Filed Under Barack Obama

The Obama campaign has asked Missouri law enforcement to target anyone who runs a ‘misleading’ ad or makes ‘misleading statements’ about Obama’s record.

Sheriffs from across the state and at least two high profile prosecutors are joining the “Obama Truth Squads” and will be reminding voters that Barack Obama will cut taxes for 95% of the people, and that he’s a Christian.

Law enforcement and prosecutors are promising to respond immediately to any ‘misleading’ ads or statements that might violate Missouri ethics laws.

I don’t think I’ve ever heard of law enforcement ‘reminding’ people about the positions of a particular candidate. When you watch the news report about this it’s pretty creepy.

It looks like Obama is once again using fascist tactics to suppress free speech. If you speak out against Obama in Missouri you’ll find yourself in hot water with prosecutors and law enforcement.

I guess that’s the ‘Change We Can Believe In.’

UPDATE:

Michelle has more on this.

How could you possibly be against stopping lies or misleading advertising? Why SHOULD those not be stopped when they are discovered?

Because these are sworn law enforcement officials who have NO business injecting themselves in to national politics, they are not appointed to be the thought police, they are to enforce criminal law in their respective communities. How could you possibly not understand that??

This is not, nor ever has been, the function of state, county or municipal law enforcement agencies.

Do you know what country this was the case in at one time? Try Germany in the 1930’s. So who are the real Nazi’s and fascists? And by the way, why did they not say they were going to go after anyone who lies about Sen. McCain? Is it because Obama and his supporters never, ever lie? Or because every stinking one of them is in the frakkin tank for Obama? Curious that.

You may also want to read the 1st amendment, it’s a rider, an earmark if you will, to that little thing called the US Constitution. If I remember it say something about free speech. You might want to check that out.
