Obama organizing group: Palin book tour “dangerous”

This is actually kind of cute, and completely hypocritical. Organizing for America warns its mailing list of a new danger to America. Is it terrorists getting a global platform in federal court? Political correctness keeping soldiers in danger? Massive deficits being run up by the Democrats to satisfy their statist agenda? Er … not quite:

President Obama’s political operation took a shot at Sarah Palin today, accusing her of lying on her media blitz.

“It’s dangerous,” Organizing for America Director Mitch Stewart said of Palin’s book tour. …

Let’s see if we have this right. The Left accused conservatives opposed to trying Gitmo terrorists in federal court of cowardice, a charge echoed to some degree by Eric Holder in his testy exchange with Senator Jon Kyl. Put aside for the moment the myriad of arguments against Obama’s decision. Even on that basis, we’re now to believe that giving al-Qaeda terrorists a global media platform for propaganda and recruitment isn’t at all dangerous … but a book tour should have people running for cover?

And of course, Stewart is showing just how dangerous this is — by exploiting it for every red cent he can find:

Stewart asks supporters to help raise $500,000 to “push back against Sarah Palin and her allies.”

Well, maybe Palin is dangerous. But dangerous to whom? If Stewart has his crying towel out already, the answer is pretty clear.

what is this group btw? Is it like a SarahPAC? Obama’s official funding raising group?

[LIConFem]

Obama is just testing the waters for his planned curtailment of political speech.

Hang onto your guns—you may need to use them soon to defend America.

Organizing for America is an offshoot of the DNC...cant you tell?

Is this a 512 group? How is it different from DNC? Are they trying to get away from the laws and restriction on election financing?

Chill out! go fishing! relax!....It's all over for you traitors in the coming elections anyway....

So let me get this straight, we have Islamic extremists who are hell bent on killing us all. Nidal Hassan funds money to Pakistan and writes emails saying that he can’t wait to get his 72 virgins in heaven..yet this group thinks Sarah Palin, who is not even Governor anymore, she is a private citizen, she can say and do whatever she feels like, she is supposedly the dangerous one. It’s stuff like this that makes me fear for Sarah’s life. It takes one whack job to believe this crap. Thank God she has adequate security around her, and I hear she packs heat. She travels with a gun whenever she goes(or so I have read)

[Allegra]

LOL - if those Communists see Sarah Palin as “dangerous” then that’s all the more reason for my supporting her.

[AngelesCrestHighway]

I don’t doubt she would be the first politician in a long time who would pull a gun out to protect themselves.....

[wombtotomb]

She IS dangerous, for groups like them........

[pallis]

The more Sarah scares liberals, the more I like her. Poor Obamao, the worst president in the history of the world is getting kicked around by a white woman.

[Sarah Barracuda]

Not only that, but she isn’t even a politician anymore. She is a private citizen, regular person. she can say and do whatever she pleases. She posts a few messages on her facebook page and the leftists freak out. If her statement were a lie they wouldn’t care, but they know its the truth which is why they are freaking out

[Right Wing Assault]

My reply?

“Patriotism is not ‘dangerous.’”

[Rodney Dangerfield]

Typical lefty tactic: Accuse someone of lying without specifics.

Obama’s job approval ratings are now below 50% in every major poll, yet the MSM is ignoring it.

Palin won’t make the decision to run for President, the public will and by 2012 they will be begging Palin to run this Bozo out of the WH

“Stewart asks supporters to help raise $500,000 to “push back against Sarah Palin and her allies.””

It really is about the money. Why would they need all that money when they have 99% of all news agencies already bashing on her?

[FrankR]

"Stewart asks supporters to help raise $500,000 to “push back against Sarah Palin and her allies.” "

Leftist fools...they already tried this tactic trying to support the Joe Wilson's (the "you lie" guy) opponent, and we answered that call by raising 3 times as much money in a weekend.

The kenyan just cannot abide anyone being more popular than he is. He's accused Sarah of lying, but you know, the "lawsuit loving left" never, ever brings any libel or slander lawsuits against her...guess they couldn't withstand the "discovery" process in court.

And, as many verifiable lies as we've already heard from the obama administration, how could we assume his saying that Sarah lies, is not just another one of their lies.

It doesn't matter what anyone on the left- including obama - says about Sarah Palin...we all have TV's, we all have ears and we all have brains...and we know the truth. They're crying wolf, and the wolf is biting them in the @$$.

The left's widely demonstrated fear of Sarah Palin has percolated all the way to the top...all the wasy to the White House...so you KNOW she's effective.

obama's fear of her is the signal we need to charge full speed ahead with our support of Sarah Palin.

Palin 2012: Everybody Get Dangerous.

[MozarkDawg]

He's accused Sarah of lying

Has she made up Congressional districts? Did she accuse pediatricians of performing unwarranted tonsillectomies on children after looking at the fee schedule or GP's of chopping off the feet of their diabetic patients in order to "get the immediate $30,000" ??
