Reports continue to come in that Barack Obama’s Presidential Campaign is threatening legal action against his critics.
On Tuesday (September 23), CBS affiliate KMOV reported that Obama had enlisted a number of Missouri law enforcement officials, including local sheriffs and prosecutors, “to target anyone who lies or runs a misleading television ad [against Obama] during the presidential campaign."
The CBS report is the latest of several incidents where the Obama campaign has threatened critics with civil or criminal prosecution. According to World Net Daily, his campaign “also sent ‘threatening’ letters to several news agencies in Pennsylvania and Ohio demanding they stop airing ads exposing Obama's gun stance. In addition, “Obama’s lawyers twice demanded the Department of Justice investigate and prosecute the American Issues Project, its officers, board of directors, and donors,” for running ads critical of Obama’s ties to “unrepentant domestic terrorist William Ayers.”
Obama himself has also urged tough measures against people who fail to back him, telling a group of supporters in Nevada recently to “argue with and…get in [the] face(s)” of Republican and independent voters.
Where do you think they went? The word “Missouri” does not appear on Drudge’s page.
“i think they might overdose this election...”
one can only hope.
We ended up with Governor Sebelius because the RINOs in Kansas gave in to her legal threats about factual ads.
Three cheers for Gov Blunt! Can we borrow him?
I found this
Totally violates First Amendment prior restraint provision.
And the difference between a Hitler rally and an Obama rally is that Adolph had better taste in music.

About the only nice thing one could say about that genocidal maniac.
I am hopeful he is gathering more information and sources and will break it with a flashing red light.
I am hopeful too. I am fearful something more sinister is afoot.

So do your part to make sure it doesn't happen.
Have great friends in Westchester and he has McCain signs and shirts and has a few irrate Dems, but he has gotten many, many quiet compliments!
Can you imagine if Bush had a truth squad out? We would be hearing it from the roof tops from sea to shining sea.
Obama Campaign is still running the lying ad here in Virginia, where he claims that if McCain had had his way all the old people on Social Security would have lost their SS money in the stock market.
Even Factcheck had to admit the ad was a lie on multiple levels — first that NO proposal effected anybody over the age of 50, second that no proposal would cut anybody SS by more than 25%, and 3rd that only a small part of SS would ever be in private accounts.
If the Marxist gets into the WH I predict July 4, 2009 and it won't be the synagogues that are attacked it will be conservative churches.
Oh, but I am serious.
