1. That's story has been debunked by everyone but the RW shills at CTV. Here is Hillary's lie exposed
Hillary Clinton in support of NAFTA


Obama Adviser Denies CTV's Latest On NAFTA

By Greg Sargent - February 29, 2008, 1:07PM

<...>

And Goolsbee denies it:

“It is a totally inaccurate story,” he said. “I did not call these people and I direct you to the press office.”


Meanwhile, Obama spokesperson Bill Burton also denies this latest round, via email:

This story is not true. There was no one at any level of our campaign, at any point, anywhere, who said or otherwise implied Obama was backing away from his consistent position on trade.


Canadian0 Embassy: Report On Obama And NAFTA Is False

Is there a disconnect that causes people to not see the idiocy of that time frame? Obama has been speaking out publicly against NAFTA for years. A story quoting a person from Rove's AEI claiming the somehow Canada needed to be warned this month about something that's been going on for several years is beyond ridiculous.

9. Wrong. CTV is a well-regarded Canadian news network, and has not been debunked
You are being hollow and inaccurate when you attempt to claim they are RW shills. Obama supporters need to give up this ridiculous pretense.

Obama either lied to Ohio or he lied to Canada.


And the huge problem the Obama campaign now has is that CTV has a highly credible source -- a high-ranking member of the Canadian embassy -- who has provided the network with details of the call and a timeline.

2. Canada has told the employee to shut up - and the employee does not say the story false -but does
say Obama never promised to not pass NAFTA limiting legislation

So now Obama supporters can once again say Obama walks on water

but how about that 5% cut in corporate taxes and the end of many regulations of business - that I bet does happen

3. This is why Hillary's campaign went south quickly. Rovian tactics. You're citing...
a source of a story that gets its information from anonymous "Canadian sources." To think that anyone in the Obama campaign would be that stupid is to not believe in evolution.

My real guess is that this was a story planted by Rove or the desperate Clinton campaign. Part of the kitchen sink theory that is going on at this last stage of Clinton's lost campaign.

You should be ashamed. A real story has quotes from Obama or a major staffer themselves, from sources that are named and credible...or even on tape. You know that it's not credible to cite anonymous sources that are supposedly reporting on what unnamed campaign people said to other unnamed people about an issue. Silly rabbit. Tricks are for kids.

10. The source was Canada's RW PM's chief of staff? The PM who is warning the U.S.:
Canada Warns Against Renegotiating NAFTA

Seems the CTV story is not only complete BS, the Canadian PM is worried.

12. Michael Wilson, Canadian ambassador to the United States was contacted by Obama's campaign.
CTV is merely the messenger.

Ignorantly bashing CTV will not make the story go away, nor will it cancel out the fact that Obama either lied to Ohio or lied to Canada.

18. Sorry - sources at the highest levels of the Canadian government reconfirmed their position after
And these same sources were the ones that first told CTV that a call was made from the Obama camp

17. Yes, I reposted it here..
because when I accessed it on the video forum, I found the vid non workable. (hmmm- the Truth is too much for the BO

and thanks again, durrrty libby for finding it and bringing it to our attention!

The fact of the matter is, Obama is a dirty, deceiving, lying, cheating, scumbag unfit to take this country anywhere, much less as it's Commander and Chief!

19. Everyone is a Liar except Obama.. I wonder if he'll purger himself..
on the witness stand to keep up his charade as a descent, honest law abiding citizen?

Would Obama take a POLYGRAPH RIGHT NOW to prove he's telling the Truth?

I doubt it...he's probably break the needle! :scared:

14. So, did Obama lie to Canada or lie to Ohio?
Hopefully, the groundwork for this will never come to fruition, on Obama's part. Nevertheless, he lied to one of them.

==>> If he lied to Ohio, then Ohio needs to react on this vote pandering fiasco and escort the fraud out of the state.

==>> If, on the other hand, he lied to Canada, then democratic voters throughout the United States need to react and not allow this fraud to receive the nomination.

24. Why are you re-hashing gerrilea's lie?
Tellurian - stop believing repetition will make things true.


In a statement, the Canadian Embassy disputed the television story.

"The Canadian Embassy confirms that at no time has any member of a presidential campaign called the Canadian Ambassador or any official at the Embassy to discuss NAFTA. Last night, the Canadian television network CTV falsely reported that such calls had been made. That story is untrue. Neither before nor since the Ohio debate has any presidential campaign called Ambassador Wilson or the embassy to raise NAFTA.


BTW Why did you take your name from the very right wing books of E E Smith and L Ron Hubbard .... could you be a cult member?
