Book on Obama Hopes to Repeat Anti-Kerry Feat

NY Times ^ | August 13, 2008 | JIM RUTENBERG and JULIE BOSMAN

I am currently reading “The Obama Nation” and it is filled with over 600 footnotes supporting his writings. Mr. Corsi makes it very clear in the introduction of the book that he is not a republican or rat, he is voting for Chuck Baldwin of the Constitution party.

Osama/Bama is nothing but a Marxist/Muslim Pig.

— Mr. Obama is Christian —

Yes, but as Brian Sussman of KSFO asks, if Obama were charged with being Christian would there be enough evidence to convict him?

[WilliamofCarmichael]

The Nytimese join Obama and vow "We will respond to these smears..."

What smears?

"Well, you know. The lies."

What lies?

"The stuff circulating on the Internet."

What stuff?

"The smears."

What smears?

"Well, you know. The lies."

Guess they couldn’t ignore Dr. Corsi’s best seller.

I’m sure that if the people at the Times had their way there wouldn’t be word one about this book but, since they can’t change the fact that it is #1 on their own list, they have to try and discredit it.

It is immensely satisfying to me that the NYTimes #1 book is Dr. Corsi’s 2nd well researched and impossible to ignore book on Leftard candidates! IMO this is going to be seen as nailing down the BHo story and the there's nothing the LSM/NYTimes can do to refute this book..Thank you Dr. Corsi and all the great Swift Boaters aka truth seekers!

***Mr. Corsi has released a new attack book painting Senator Barack Obama, the Democrats’ presumed presidential nominee, as a stealth radical liberal who has tried to cover up “extensive connections to Islam” — Mr. Obama is Christian***

NY Times needs to separate fact from fiction. There is no proof Obama is a Christian. There are no baptism records for him and he has never said that ONLY Jesus Christ is his lord and savior.
There are strong connections to Obama and Islam. First being his father. Second being that he attended a Muslim school in Indonesia regardless whether they want to call it a Medrasah or not. Third being he has never said that ONLY Jesus Christ is his lord and savior. Even Muslims believe in Jesus but don't believe he is the lord and savior.

“written by an individual who was discredited after he wrote a similar book”

How was he discredited? I think the only one that changed their story was J Forbes Kerry.

[Holicheese]

"“This book is nothing but a series of lies that were long ago discredited, written by an individual who was discredited after he wrote a similar book" So then could we say that the NYT is a discredited newspaper for all the lies and stories that have had to be "corrected" and the reporters who have been proven to have made up sources and lied in their articles? Hmmmmmm.

[nathanbedford]

Good point, but making the NYT a liar does not make Corsi a truthteller. We need to affirm the Swiftboat story.

[Holicheese]

I agree, but using the authors logic about Corsi’s book not being legit because he claims there is falsehoods in his past book, then we must assume that the NYT is the Weekly World News of the 21st century!

[IamConservative]

Bumper sticker candidate for the cause:

“The National Enquirer has more facts in it than the NY Times.”

Which is likely true. TNE writers gets sued when they make sh-tuff up.

[nathanbedford]

It appears that Corsi has succeeded in getting under the skin of John Kerry one more time.

Kerry vs. Corsi [John Kerry is launching a website, Truth Fights Back, to defend Obama.......]

However, I doubt if Kerry would go to these lengths described in taking to the airwaves to fight Corsi's charges unless authorized to do so by Obama himself. Perhaps not coincidentally, I heard today that Kerry's name is being bruited about as a potential vice presidential running mate for Obama.

I suspect that Kerry will behave as he has in this letter in trying to blunt the Corsi attack on Obama which is to content himself with making naked assertions that Corsi is lying. Kerry never actually did contest the specifics of the Swift boat charges four years ago for obvious reasons. I think it becomes important to be able to demonstrate that the Swift boat veterans for truth were in fact perfectly truthful when they dismantled John F. Kerry four years ago. There is a danger, however, in permitting the Obama forces to change the subject and reduce it to a rehash of the charges against Kerry rather than an examination of Corsi's charges against Obama.
