THIS IS FRIGHTENING. The Obama Campaign is trying have people thrown in prison for a political ad (below). Can you say Soviet Union? Is this what we can expect from an Obama Administration: Gulags, purges, persecutions, paranoia? The Obama Campaign can't handle the truth, and they don't want you too, either.
TO WIT:
The Barack Obama campaign has resorted to a campaign of intimidation and legal threats to convince television stations and the federal government to force off the air an ad by the American Issues Project detailing the link between Sen. Obama and remorseless domestic terrorist William Ayers.
Furthermore:
The Obama campaign has been contacting stations running American Issues Project's ad in an unsuccessful attempt to compel them to pull the spot. The Obama campaign also sent a letter yesterday to the Department of Justice asking the government to investigate American Issues Project, its officers, board of directors, and donors. With no success on either front, the campaign has begun running its own ad in response. Notably, this ad fails to dispute a single fact in the American Issues Project's initial ad. [SOURCE: MARKETWATCH.COM] Needless to say, there is a lot of coverage of this bizarre behavior in both the big media and the blogosphere. One blog commenter noted: Legal action? Sheesh, it’s not like anyone involved with this ad set off a bomb or anything… well except for the featured pinhead Ayers. [Source: Sister Toldjah] Ed Martin, American Issues Project's president, said, "Having failed in its attempts to get our legal, factual and fully-supported ad off the air, Barack Obama's campaign now wants to put our donors in prison for exercising their right to free speech." [Source: Earth Times] Martin is rightly pissed off. "These over-the-top bullying tactics are reminiscent of the kind of censorship one would see in a Stalinist dictatorship, with the only difference being that those guys generally had to wait until they were in power to throw people who disagreed with them into jail."
