The Barack Obama campaign is asking Missouri law enforcement to target anyone who lies or runs a misleading TV ad during the presidential campaign.

The St. Louis TV news 4 video is frightening...here is a transcript of the newscast segment:

"Prosecutors and sheriffs from across Missouri are joining something called the "Barak Obama Truth Squad". Two high profile prosecutors are part of the team and we met them this afternoon in the central west end...They are Jennifer Joyce from the City and Bob McCullough the St. Louis County Prosecuting Attorney. They will be REMINDING VOTERS THAT BARAK OBAMA IS A CHRISTIAN WHO WANTS TO CUT TAXES FOR ANYONE MAKING LESS THAN $250,000 PER YEAR....THEY ALSO SAY THEY PLAN TO RESPOND IMMEDIATELY TO ANY ADS OR STATEMENTS THAT VIOLATE MISSOURI ETHICS LAWS....

Jennifer Joyce said: We want to keep this campaign focused on issues.... we don't want missouri voters distracted by these divisive character attacks,so we are here to respond to any character attacks and to set the record straight.

Bob McCullough said: Whether it is directly attributable to the campaign or one of the soft money operations, if they're not going to tell the truth then somebody's got to step up and say "That's not true... THIS IS THE TRUTH"

The Obama campagin tells us that other prosecutors and sheriffs are part of the team including some from the Kansas City area and from Rural parts of the state and that the Truth squad is expected to include Jefferson County Sheriff Glen Boyer...."

If Missouri Sheriffs and Prosecutors are going to censor websites, editorials, election campaigns and the news - who is to say it can't spread like kudzu to your city or state.? BTW, Since Obama was never baptised and Reverend Wright is/was a Muslim too - are they Christians?

Who defines who is or isn't a christian? And can my county sheriff order me to cease and desist my republican campaign website that contains videos from Youtube? or news feeds from GOP and conservative sources? How did the Obama campaign get Missouri Legal system to become their censors? Obama likes to clear the field of all competition so these two items ( being a non christian and tax increases/decreases for the under$250k crowd) must be hot topics in focus group discussions

Who can stop the government from supporting Obama? This is identical to the government support of those who oppose the anti-muslim crowd action in Germany last week. The police lined up with the promuslim liberals and destroyed a demonstration against the largest mosque to be ever built in Europe. http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/bloggers/2090887/posts

Even though it’s clearly a naked attempt at intimidation, when you watch the story, it’s really about a bunch of Democrat prosecutors and sheriffs who will go on TV to “tell the truth” about the Messiah...

You must not be from Missouri - it's not 'just democrats' its pressure to keep your job and pressure to conform to the propaganda lies or face a job loss. The government is populated with democrats who know they are right to suck the lifeblood out of the population. This is only a test - it will be coming to your city too soon if we don't act now and scream from every window...

This is a good reason to repeal/ignore all the antigun laws out there.

I dare them force me to shut up and volunteer me for his serious f@g farces and corrupt pedophile acts.

That being said, I’ll hold my self amnestizing fire for now... you know, free houses bailouts and identity theft of illegals. I too can self amnestize like those cops and prosecutors dare try.

Let me see how this revolution and strife they provoke is gona go, all the way to the cross... As a believer, nay, I’ll wait for the right amnesty and the right punishment at the same time... nice and definite and multifaceted bidirectional.

This is my voice, my community and my integrity and my gun.

This is a response to the Sarah Palin dare, guns and all. It’s to intimidate the GOP and the right.

Why do you think AIG is insolvant and scandalous calls for amnesties and bail outs are going on? Why this provocation for revolt and prosecuting the right?

They are trying to foment a mess. Barak and his illegal sbirs should be thrown in jail. Very bad idea Obambi. The b@st@rd child knows also Russia’s posting nukes in Bahamas and Venezuela and is ready to betray it all to save his own neck. Watch the muslim f@g do his tard job.

What if it is the Obama Campaign that is lying?

You forget that the left defines what the truth is, and redefines it when necessary.

I’m not a lawyer, but I believe libel and slander are civil matters, not criminal.

A sheriff or prosecutor should not be involved. St. Louis County should be absorbed into Illinois. We should split more of KC with Kansas so the liberals can be absorbed by more real people. Missouri would go Pubbie every time.

I believe you are correct and that’s just one more reason why this is so incredibly wrong...

Interesting thoughts on annexing St. Louis into Illinois! It would be nice to have a solid Conservative majority in the state I’d bet. :)

Thank you so much for the compliment on my site. I really appreciate it. :)

I was reviewing parts of the debate again this morning, and you are so right... At one point Obama kept looking at McCain, and using his name, and McCain was busy writing notes, and seemingly ignoring him completely. And you are right, it REALLY did not make Obama happy. I didn’t realize last night how much that particular thing got to him. Obama was trying to anger McCain, and get him to engage in a verbal argument vs. a debate. McCain was too smart to let him do that... And, every time that did almost happen, McCain was quick to slam Obama (especially during the Kissinger exchange(s). Reviewing it, as I said, makes this all the more apparent!

All in all I think it was a very good debate, and I think McCain did very well. :)

Obama is a Muslim. There’s an AP photograph of a school enrollment documenting this.

This is starting to sound spooky. I just had a flashback to the “Mod Squad.”

In another manner of speaking:

“I am NOT a Muslim and I will use TALIBAN-Like measures to stop you from calling me one!

This is scary - where is this country headed??

Truth Squad? Is that what we have to look forward to under a B. Hussien
Obama Presidency?
Any speaking against the President and we will be jailed?
This is scary.

Sounds like Obama is trying to increase his “gravitas”...
by following in the mis-guided footsteps of one of The Founding Fathers,
John Adams.
Only he’s decided that simply as a candidate for The Presidency,
speech against him should be an offense.

I’d love it if some tough Republican would send him a letter asking
if his plan follows John Adams’ sedition act...so we can still make
fun of his Vice-Presidental candidate without fear of reprisals.
And that if we start going after liars, most of the Senate and House
will be emptied out in short order.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sedition

United States
There have been 24 attempts in the United States to regulate speech
that has been deemed seditious. In 1798, President John Adams signed
into law the Alien and Sedition Acts, the fourth of which,
the Sedition Act or
“An Act for the Punishment of Certain Crimes against the United States”
set out punishments of up to two years’ imprisonment for
“opposing or resisting any law of the United States” or writing or
publishing “false, scandalous, and malicious writing” about the President
or Congress (but specifically not the Vice-President).

I’m speechless!

State prosecutors stepping in as surrogates for Obama ???

And no like action mentioned for misleading McCain ads?

What is really going on here? Is it even constitutional?

Ms. Joyce’s missive is completely partisan.

WATCH the video.

Saw something about this yesterday and all I could muster was a shrug at the time. Hope the republicans in the state filed suit!! I don’t believe the Obama brownshirts will get very far with this one but it should be exposed to the American people! Unbelievable! Thanks for the link.

Watch the video ... law enforcement officials
inserting themselves partisan politics.

Not meaning the fabulous FReepers, I have a
concern that, as vicious, wearing and emotionally
stressful as this election was always projected
to be, our folks will tire and become complacent
just when we need the most vigorous battle forces
on the field.

I just left a message @ Ms. Joyce’s office,
that I was outraged at this partisan political
insertion, and that I’ll be watching to see
if the same will be done for misleading McCain
ads.
