No. This is the technique of invalidation-by-proxy.
They want to make out ALL criticism of Obama to be racist and vile. How they do this is to play up false allegations, and then swat them down. What they will do is this:
1. Someone on freerepublic.com called Obama a Muslim.
2. Calling Obama a Muslim is false (true point), and it is racist fearmongering (their spin).
3. Freerepublic.com calls Obama a Liberal.
4. Therefore, calling Obama a Liberal is false racist fearmongering.
Look up logical fallacies. ... yet it works!
Freepers take note: For this reason, it is particularly important to stick to relevant, proven points about Obama.
Dont worry, there’s enough to nail him as a leftwing zero accomplishment corrupt lying bamboozler.

PROVE that Obama was a Christian as a child.
I will need to see hand signed documents. No faxed photocopies. After the Bush National Guard memos it has become apparent that the Left WILL cut and past in MS-WORD to gin up a fake letter.
The signature may match published signatures and the typewriter face MAY match some rare version of kerning typewriter but in the absence of a hand signed hand typed ancient document, a fax doesn't mean crap.
Obama's staff has claimed he was ERRONEOUSLY listed as a muslim on his school paperwork. So show some paperwork to the contrary. Hand signed. And dated. PLEASE.
Until then it is UNACCEPTABLE to call Obama a Christian before he reached adulthood and attended his wife's church.
Yet it seems to work every time. They must be laughing their a**s off.
Check out my home page for some 'relevant, proven points' about Obama and other prominent demoncraps.
Very interesting - thanks for posting this explanation.
I think most do stick to the issues - the other stuff is just ranting.
Of course no matter what we do, they will play it to their benefit by lying - as always.
This is the same old game we fell for on so many issues - “oh, don’t do that the democrats will say ........”
In reality - it is a form of control of our actions because of the fear of their continual reaction to our actions.
Instead, we should just ignore their complaints because we will get those complaints no matter what we do as the root cause is power and the quest for power.
But, I agree - we waste time, clout, on the rumors and diminish our credibility by getting sidetracked into them.
If we continually ignored the ravings of the democrats to whatever we do, and proceed in a strong forceful manner in the right direction, we leave them chattering on the sidelines as we direct the attention to the areas needing attention. We also downplay the value of their complaints if we proceed with our actions.
An example of this is Hannity & Colmes whenever a conservative candidate begins making a point. You will notice how Colmes reacts. He begins interrupting with side issues and questions to PREVENT THE POINT BEING HEARD. If this does not work, he will do the chattering that overtalks the guest. Last resort - he calls for a commercial.
This is the tactic of the democrats to prevent our message being heard. Your points above are another version of this same ploy. Redirect the conversation, the conservative’s points or actions to prevent the true message being seen.
