Compliments of The Olympian:

One of the favorite tactics of the political Left is to smear their political opponents. They follow Alinsky's guideline -- "Ridicule is man's most potent weapon." They ridicule, personalize and attack those they disagree with, because they can not, and will not, debate the issues.The Left is unable to defend Obama's decision to hide his bona fides from the American People, so they attack anybody that dares to ask Obama to release his documentation. One of their favorite tactics is to tar the questioner as a "Birther," or relegate the skeptic to the "fringe.". The Obama File.


Now, as you know, we cannot get into in depth conversation about this on the comments forum, because no one wrote a letter about it. So......have a shot here.....

Regardless of the individual author of this post, I've noticed that the new move of the extremists of the Right Wing is to pull out ""we have a right to question", thus avoiding the obvious issue that the only reason the question came up is the color of his skin. Can you imagine someone questioning the "true birthplace" of Ronald Reagan? I mean, how do we really know he wasn't born in Ireland?

Obama has provided more than enough proof for the majority of the GOP and all you have left is the loonies on the fringe (their words, not mine). Sarah Palin's latest was "they have their right to question...but I'm not questioning". For all her stupidity, she has the political sense to appease those voters (as if they wouldn't vote for her anyway), but save face with the moderates (who see her as a joke).

We know that the GOP has been the champs of political smear since Nixon's days. What's your take? Are you buying their latest explanation? Oh...and did THEY follow "Sal Alinsky"?

Larry, thank you for creating a forum free from the local#69. Reasoned discussion on the lte's is hard to come by these days, though yesterday was a bit better. And they wonder why their rants get pulled!

What about bman who claimed not to know that the Olympian has rules in place for posting? Did he really think that there wouldn't be any rules? Sheesh, there are rules for everything!
