they will now say we are starting a rumor that BarryO is a cross-dresser.

I have NEVER seen Barack Hussein Obama wearing a Christian cross.

Posting pictures if you've got them.

There. WaPo can quote FR as they wish.

I think I posted on the AP "rules" thread that Jim needs to start charging the MSM $12.50 for every 4 words PER publication (Ass Press is in 4000 papers). No more funderaisers??

>> Yet they sued Free Republic for quoting too much of their content. Ironic.

Yes. See the horrible double standard at play in permitting something to be STOLEN in "certain" circumstances because it is deemed NEWSWORTHY by the MSM? Guardians of the fourth estate?

FR cannot quote the WaPoo in total but there is no limit how much they can spew from FR.

What a great idea. It was a horrendous fight that the LAT et al took to FR. IMHO it was to their detriment. But since they waged it and forced a settlement, it is only fair that they offer the same consideration in return.

Nicely done, Mobile! Of course their little “genius” Danielle Allen will surely want to investigate the even more interesting Obama bits such as his relationship with the Orange Democratic Movement and (Cousin?) Raila Odinga... Hmm...Obama certainly has the questionable friends - here and overseas - and the list keeps getting longer. ;)

Consider the wire services coverage of the final passage of the Challenger flyby witnesses and historically noted by FReepers across the Western half of the United States.

Every word a price. Every brand of paper and circulated copy a “client”.

Theft.

the music industry wants thousand for a single stolen song by one consumer. Imagine if they were bootlegging copies of a studio track on albums for commercial sale?

He might be right-- babies are completely selfish ..."it's all about me" is the mindset. They cry at all hours to be fed, cuddled and cleaned and all without any concern for the needs of others. They poop in their own pants, wet beds, and spit up on people trying to help them.

They have to be taught to be patient, to be respectful, to be honest, to clean up their own messes, to selflessly do things for others, to resist peer pressure, to resist the urge to hit their siblings, etc.

Actually, this whole WaPo thing was meant as an exercise in intimidation. They still have no legal way to go after people who say Hussein Obama is a Muslim (well, unless they want to admit that being a Muslim is a bad thing and it’s an insult to be called a Muslim!) because there’s absolutely nothing wrong in saying this. It’s personal opinion based on some known facts about him and his evasiveness about everything, and how one responds to it depends on what one thinks of Islam in general and Barry O in particular.

But Obama’s left simply wants us to know that they’re watching. When they get power, you can expect that this will be more than just watching.

Three reactions:

The photo — That’s a woman? Are you sure?

These rumors have been circulating for 4 years? How many people had even heard of Obummer in 2004?

This piece needs some editorial polishing.

Did Mapes or Rather write the Wa Po Article?

######

Matthew Mosk is the same reporter who wrote the “Md4Bush” expose’ that got Maryland politics in such an uproar a few years ago. It was a story, based on chicanery by dem operatives, connected to Martin O’Malley, and used to silence anyone who had been discussing rumors of his infidelity, before his race for governor.

It worked. Everyone in Maryland was intimidated, shall we say, into admitting “it was just a rumor” and so it was never used againgst him in the election, but instead used against people who worked for his opponent, the then Republican governor.

Slick, and effective.

This is a REPLAY - intended to take ‘Obama + muslim’ off of the discussion board from now til November.

Just like so many sequels not living up to the first show, I don’t thisk this effort will have the desired effect.

I think his mother was an atheist and socialist, who harbored grievances against America. It seems a sure bet that Barry O was never baptized as a child, and his mother was just being expedient when she enrolled him in the various Jakarta schools.

Danielle Allen is a sellout and an Ultimate Embaressment to “The Institute of Advanced Studies” at Princeton University. The Institute, former home of Albert Einstein, and home to Our Leading Physicists and Mathematicians is demeaned by the actions of a political hack as Allen is in order to get a cheap political shot in for her closet Muslim friend, B.O. HUSSEIN!

To me, he’s not black, he’s not half black and half white; he’s one hundred percent red.

@@@@@@

An excellent way to speak of Barry O when with friends this summer ===

What is black and white and red all over?

(It used to be a newspaper!!!) LOL!

Well where ever it started, it is effective.

I listened to a Steel Workers union member, a team leader on the job, who told me he would have extreme difficulty voting for Hussein because he was a Muslim and not Chrisitan.

I don’t know why the union type opened up to me, but my final take was that he is a good Democrat unwilling to vote for a black man, but very willing to not vote for a Muslim.

RE your post about the percent increase in whatever you were referencing —

One of the big failures of modern education, (besides the left wing indoctrination) is the lack of knowledge of percentages. It really is abysmal how little people know about it, and one of the reasons why politicians can spin so much.

1 added to 1 is a 100% increase. (Headline: “AIDS cases doubled among women” — when the number went from 2 per hundred to 4 per hundred — but the headline is a scare tactic.)

When our governor wanted to raise the sales tax from 5% to 6%, everyone who agreed with him, [see WaPo,etc] called it a one percent increase. In real money, it was a 20% increase.

......I have NEVER seen Barack Hussein Obama wearing a Christian cross......

But this week, the presstitutes did a piece on what he carries in his pockets. One of the items was a cross.

The piece was obviously staged to show hussein carries a cross as a good luck piece. He doesn’t wear a cross.....he carries a cross.

..

Actually, FR is one of the places outside of the DNC where Obama was being discussed. Alan Keyes ran against him.
The tribulations of the R that was hounded out of the contest, so that Keyes was asked to step in was also well covered here.

Untraceable e-mails spread Obama rumor

"Obama himself, according to a pair of widely circulated anonymous e-mails, is a Muslim. “Barack Hussein Obama has joined the United Church of Christ in an attempt to downplay his Muslim background,” warns an e-mail titled “Who Is Barack Obama,” that was circulating in South Carolina political circles this summer and sent to Politico by a South Carolina Democrat...

... the Unification Church-owned online magazine Insight the next month, which reported, with no named sources but a political twist, that Hillary Rodham Clinton’s campaign was pushing a story about Obama’s Muslim heritage. 'Are the American people ready for an elected president who was educated in a madrassa as a young boy and has not been forthcoming about his Muslim heritage?' Insight asked Jan. 17 [2006]."
