Obama Counters Muslim Slurs Head On & Hypocrite DU'ers Trash Him For It?
Edited on Mon Jan-28-08 07:59 PM by cryingshame
how fucked up can anyone be?

And a large number of the same DU'ers trashed Kerry for NOT countering the Swiftboat Liars.

Every DU'er in GDP knows damned well Obama is being attacked by "Muslim" crap constantly. Hell, even the Clinton campaign got caught doing it.

DU'ers go out of their way to post "Gee, I got this email about Obama being a Muslim and attending a Madrassa and not saying the Pledge, is it true" on a semi-regular basis.

And it's a FACT that a significant target of this crap is the Jewish community.

Let me reiterate, to a large extent the same jerks trashing Obama for responding forcefully and publically to these smears are the same ones who trash Kerry for not standing up for himself.

:puke:

6. Obama targeted in smear campaign
"Illinois Senator and Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama has been targeted in a recent smear campaign which claims that he is a fundamentalist Muslim working for al-Qaeda in an effort to topple the US government.

An inflammatory mass e-mail that is circulating in the United States and Israel lays out the anonymous author's version of Obama's background.

One of the target audiences in the campaign is clearly the American Jewish community because the e-mail has also been sent out in Hebrew."

3. I know Obama's not a Muslim, and even if he were, I would not be
bothered more than I am after reading the "About Us" page of the church where Obama does belong: www.tucc.org. Clinton and Edwards probably won't say anthing about this, but you can bet the Republicans will if he is the nominee.
