What a hoot!
Lie: Corsi says that Barry never mentions that his father was an alcoholic.
Truth! Barry said in his book his father was a complete degenerate who drank all the time and would beat his kids.
Lie: Corsi says Barry never mentioned that his father was a polygamist.
Truth! Barry said in his book that his father was a misogynist who had more wives than you can swing a dead cat at.
Lie: Corsi says that we don't know if Barry ever dealt drugs or exactly when he quit.
Truth! Barry's friends have vouched that despite the fact that the Obamassiah was a pot smoking fiend he quit when he was 20 (but offers no rebuttal to the "dealing" issue).
Somebody! Please! Photoshop Barry's face into a picture of Cleavon Little holding a gun to his own head from that scene in Blazing Saddles. "Stop, Corsi, or I'll shoot the candidate for president!"
BTTT. I’m really hoping someone can do the Cleavon Little thing. It would be perfect for this stupid rebuttal.
You can get in a bit of trouble for the last two sentences of your post.
You may want to delete that.
I would think not, given the context. But I appreciate your concern.
I wouldn’t mind being wrong about that.
I really have no desire to go the the Fight the Smears site. Since you are reading it, do they say which of Obama’s books they are using to dispute Corsi’s?
Understood.
They use both of them plus a lot of excerpts from news stories from the NYTimes and the like.
I think Obama has 3 books.
Don’t think so but won’t swear to it. I won’t be reading any of them, that’s for sure.
OOoooooo..... We’re halfway there.
DON'T DO IT!
Please remember that Mr. Obama IS a candidate for POTUS. More than likely, this sort of image would be misconstrued as a threat against him, and will bring a visit from the Secret Service. At the very least, our opponents will claim that we're supporting the assassination of Mr. Obama.

BTW, I'm a HUGH fan of Blazing Saddles, and I feel that it would be hilarious, but it's NOT worth the possible costs.
Somebody help that poor man!
Somebody help that poor man!
Cleavon RIP
No, don't show anything with the idea of violence. That wouldn't be good.
Good grief.... I should have known better. I guess we should have all copies of the movie removed from stores and homes and ban it from ever being played again.
Yes...I understand. Is it right? No.
obumpa
I don't mean that at all - The problem was the photoshop part, with Mr. Obama's face photoshopped onto Clevon Little's head with a gun pointed at it. I mean, let's be serious here. Of course there was no outrage in the media when they showed that photo of President Bush with crosshairs of a rifle scope on him, but you must admit that a photo of Mr. Obama with a gun pointed at his head would be splashed all over, and the outrage would be deafening.
I've also come to realize that leftists don't understand humor, if it's more complicated than "conservatives/republicans are dumb." I tried to get a liberal friend to watch Blazing Saddles a year or two ago, and he stormed out of the room, yelling what a racist SOB I was, and how the movie wasn't funny at all!
I've come to realize that either today's "liberals" are either more akin to the socialists of the 1930s, or they just lost their sense of humor. And, if reading their web sites is any indication, their minds as well.
