I’ve said it before & I’ll say it again. If this story wasn’t true, there’s no way they’ve be spending so much time trying to squelch the free speech of others to suppress it. Below is the text of an e-mail they sent out to reporters, asking them to contact the station to convince them to keep Stanley Kurtz off the air, & from talking about the Obama/Ayers relationship.
What’s interesting to me, is that they could choose to sue him for libel if what he’s saying isn’t true, or get some air time to talk about their side of the story. The problem is, they don’t want to talk about it, because it’s all true. They want to SILENCE people mafia style, through intimidation, insults, & personal attacks. It’s not going to work. Here is their e-mail to supporters (without their smear on Stanley Kurtz.) If you want to read that, it’s at the link above. I’m not putting it on my site, because much of it is completely untrue.

Text of the e-mail the Obama campaign sent to supporters:
August 28, 2008
In the next few hours, we have a crucial opportunity to fight one of the most cynical and offensive smears ever launched against Barack.
Tonight, WGN radio is giving right-wing hatchet man Stanley Kurtz a forum to air his baseless, fear-mongering terrorist smears. He’s currently scheduled to spend a solid two-hour block from 9:00 to 11:00 p.m. pushing lies, distortions, and manipulations about Barack and University of Illinois professor William Ayers.
Tell WGN that by providing Kurtz with airtime, they are legitimizing baseless attacks from a smear-merchant and lowering the standards of political discourse.
Call into the “Extension 720″ show with Milt Rosenberg at (312) 591-7200
(Show airs from 9:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m. tonight)
Then report back on your call at http://my.barackobama.com/WGNstandards
Kurtz has been using his absurd TV appearances in an awkward and dishonest attempt to play the terrorism card. His current ploy is to embellish the relationship between Barack and Ayers.
Just last night on Fox News, Kurtz drastically exaggerated Barack’s connection with Ayers by claiming Ayers had recruited Barack to the board of the Annenberg Challenge. That is completely false and has been disproved in numerous press accounts.
It is absolutely unacceptable that WGN would give a slimy character assassin like Kurtz time for his divisive, destructive ranting on our public airwaves. At the very least, they should offer sane, honest rebuttal to every one of Kurtz’s lies.
Kurtz is scheduled to appear from 9:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m. in the Chicago market.
Calling will only take a minute, and it will make a huge difference if we nip this smear in the bud. Confront Kurtz tonight before this goes any further:

Please forward this email to everyone you know who can make a call tonight.
I guess in Obama’s mind, trying to suppress the speech of the opposition is “the good fight”. Well if he wants a “fight”, we’ll keep bringing it to him.
Boy are the Obama people terrified by the Ayers revelations. They are pulling out the gestapo tactics now..
They have a service called “Google Trends Labs“, which is being used by a lot of marketers & companies to find out what people are interested in. Also, many people check it just to see what the world is interested in. Imagine the powerful statement we could make as Conservatives if we put the keywords “Barack Obama”, & William Ayers on the top of the searched Keywords list?
Here, I’ll make it easier for you. Just click on this link once or twice a day, & you’ll have contributed to the stats, & will have already helped expose Obama’s friendly relationship with an unrepentant domestic terrorist! You can also enter the keywords into Google manually of course!
If you have a website or blog, please ad this method to it! Together bloggers will shed due light on the Ayers/Obama relationship, & then let the American people decide if they want to elect a man that shares ideas with a terrorist bomber, who’s group members went on to killed American policemen.
You know, watching some of the videos on YouTube that are intended to be “pro Obama” I realized today that most of these videos are better arguments for why nobody should vote for him.
He’s always putting down his own country. “Yes We Can” is one of his campaign slogans. Yes we can what Barack? I have news for you. This is the greatest & most charitable superpower in the world, & we already HAVE done greater things than any nation! But despite that Barack Obama & his supporters are not, & will not be happy until they don’t have to work for prosperity, but rather gain it by riding on the coattails of others..
Check out this video which is the product of Democrats’ fake MTV/VH1 view of the world, & notice the people shown are pulling a total Milli Vanilli act, because most of them are not even matched up with their own voices. Why is that significant? It’s significant because the Democratic party lives in a fantasy all day & all night. Everything about them is tinsel & theatrics. We need leaders who have the strength to deal with everyday reality, & not their music video, Technicolor dream coat version of it.
If you can suffer through this really bad music video, you’ll see what I mean. It’s a lot of fluff, & no substance. Like a B Movie.
Recently a software company called Activision released the game “Rock Band” which is all the rage, because people who can’t play a musical instrument necessarily, get to pretend they do. Well I find myself hoping that they’ll amend that gaming line with titles like “I’m gonna be President” & “Congressman”, & “House Representative”, so that inexperienced people like Barack & Michelle Obama can fulfill their fantasy of being world leaders from the safety of their living room, without having the true ability to create any international & national crises as they learn on the job. That way when the controller flies out of their hands, it will smash their TV, but not mine, or God forbid the futures of millions of Americans..
If you want to play fantasy leader right now Obama, buy this game & an XBox 360, but for the love of man, at least ask your supporters to stop making sappy rehashed “We are the world” music videos, because your motives aren’t nearly as pure as the musicians who did the real one! It may have been cheesy, but at least they actually wanted to help people!
A little historical perspective to show you that although your wife thinks our country is just “downright mean“, WE HAVE Obama.. Not “We Can”, We Have.. Where were you when we did? Hanging out with William Ayers maybe?
The We Are the World video/single raised over $63 million dollars for African Famine.
Apparently the Obama campaign is so incensed about the effectiveness of the American Issues Project Ad on his relationship with admitted terrorist William Ayers, they are asking the DOJ to prosecute the groups leader, Harold Simmons.
Of course they don’t have a leg to stand on in their request. It’s all just a bunch of saber rattling & deflection, to distract people from the fact that Obama did indeed befriend & unrepentant domestic terrorist, & share ideas with him..
Now, the Obama campaign is engaged in actually telling people what they will or will not say, or else.
I will ask again. If none of this is true, then why don’t you sue for libel Mr. Obama!? He’s not going to do that, because that will attract more media to a story that he knows is both true, & damaging (as it should be when you befriend terrorists) to his presidential bid, plain & simple.. He would then also have to win in court on the merits of his complaint, which has absolutely no (you guessed it) MERITS!
Michelle Malkin has done a great job covering this story as usual, & has the rebuttal letters from the American Issues Project. Sounds like the AIP anticipated the Obama team’s antics, & have all they ducks in a row legally. Now it’s gonna be Biden/Obillary “08″? He’s gonna need a miracle as this story is beginning to gain traction in the media. They are coming along kicking & screaming, but they can’t deny the truth forever.
Well if it were defamation, then why doesn’t he sue? It’s because the loss would be an embarrassment. Here’s the ad that has the Obama campaign running in circles screaming that the sky is falling. If it weren’t all true it wouldn’t upset them, & they would just ignore it. Wouldn’t they have better things to spend their time on if it weren’t?
Now here is Obama’s response to the Ayers relationship during the primaries. If you listen closely to what he says, you can see that he’s trying to dance around the relationship with Ayers. One notable statement by Obama was that “he doesn’t exchange ideas with Ayers, on a regular basis”. Hmmm…. On a regular basis. Who says what a “regular basis” is? So wouldn’t it have been more appropriate if he said unequivocally that “I never exchanged ideas with that man, because he’s an unrepentant terrorist? ” He doesn’t say that though, does he? Instead, he dances & plays with words to avoid being caught in a lie later. In the video Hillary Clinton points out that the relation was just a little deeper than what he’s letting on. She’s right..
Now Hillary would throw anyone under the bus to get elected, but that doesn’t mean what she said isn’t true. However, now that she has no chance to get elected, she’ll eventually fall in line & try to pretend that those things were never said. Liberals do that, because they are like “The Borg“, or “The Collective”. They are unable to think apart from each other for too long, or they get intellectually anemic.
“Strength is irrelevant, resistance is futile. We wish to improve ourselves. We will add your biological and technological distinctiveness to our own. Your culture will adapt to service ours.” -The Borg
They expect everyone else to fall in line with their ideologies too, which is why Barack Obama (Mr. Constitutional law professor) is trying to stop TV stations from airing the ad about Ayers. He doesn’t care about the first article of the Constitution (Free Speech), because in this case it’s inconvenient for him. He knows the truth is going to hurt here, & he wants to silence those who would put it forth with due diligence. No Presidential candidate we’ve ever elected has been so cruel to our core values, & the Constitutional values of our forefathers, as Barack Hussein Obama.
The man Barack Obama says is “a great mayor, bringing about renaissance to the great city of Detroit” has been indicted for assaulting a police officer. Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick and a top aide already face perjury, official misconduct and obstruction of justice charges stemming from his testimony in a civil trial last year. The new charges ad to the building legal challenges for the mayor who is now battling to keep his job as well.
“‘Don’t tell those f—— anything … Get the f— out of here.’ At that point Kilpatrick comes storming out through the door, grabbed me with both of my hands behind me and throws me into investigator Kinney,” referring to his partner, retired Detroit Police Homicide Sgt. Joann Kinney.
White continued testifying that Kilpatrick said: “Get the f— out of here. Leave my f—— family alone. Get off my f—— porch.”
Here’s the shining endorsement Barack Obama gave Mayor Kilpatrick earlier this year. Poor judge of character, or just a “say anything to please people” candidate? Maybe he just thinks this is how leaders should act, & it’s ok? See for yourself.
Shouldn’t Greenpeace now endorse McCain, & end their vitriolic hatred of Republicans? I’m very confused about the way these people think. Big oil, & oil exploration is evil to democrats, but democrats take their campaign contributions? Seems a wee bit disingenuous to me..
You really have to see it to believe it. The nutroot mainstream media will stop at nothing to portray Obama is a victim of racist hate mongering conservative white men..
Bias is meant for audio tape, not reporters; yet all we get from them now is poor low-frequency response, and high distortion.
Barack HUSSEIN Obama ( just like saying the Hussein part of his name because they tried to tell us we couldn’t), is trying to smooth things over with Hillary before the convention.
He’s wise to try, but I don’t think it will work. I mean lets face it, white Democrat leaders are appalled that Barack has even gotten this far. Jessie Jackson is probably over Al Sharpton’s house sharpening his “nut neutering” hedge clippers, & mixing chloroform & getting the white windowless van ready. He was just supposed to be their token black candidate who they would tout as a symbol of democratic progress, but never expected to actually win.
Man, if looks could kill huh?
On a side note, & speaking of that on air Jackson gaffe. Here’s a really funny video of Kaitie Couric basically saying that ‘the microphone is not your friend”. Notice that she never mentions exactly what Jackson said, but is sure to give two specific examples of alleged gaffes that Republicans made when standing near open mics.
Thanks Katie. We’ll remember that you should be a good person whenever you’re around & open mic, & if we are Republican, we’ll be even more careful. Your wisdom evokes tears.. The left used to Love Jesse, & now you think he should stay away from a mic? My how our loyalties evolve when convenience is at hand.
Now back to Barackistan:
The current old guard of the Democrat Party know that Barack will not be handing out the gravy posts & jobs to high ranking white Democrats, but will be probably hand more of those desired positions to oh, I don’t know, maybe rappers Jay-Z & Ludacris? No seriously, the point is that they know he’s not going to be singing “Ebony & Ivory” with Howard Dean, & looking to advance the agenda of the mostly white old school Democrat guard, & that was not part of the DNC’s original plan. The plan was for Barack to be a good little soldier, & hand the baton over to Clinton at just the right moment.
So, now that he kept running with the baton, & stole the nomination from the presumptive nominee in the eyes of most Democrats (they are largely divided & mortified behind closed doors you know), he’s got to figure out a way to bring the Democrat voters who were in great part planning to vote for the Hillster, into his court. It’s not going to be easy. Democrats are devious, but not stupid. They know if this guy takes office, he’s a liability to the party’s future, because he has less experience in politics,foreign policy & leadership, than most political pundits around the country. In short, he will SCREW EVERYTHING UP, & they all know it…
Bill Clinton earlier this week during a trip to Africa. Asked whether Obama was prepared to become president, the former president replied, “You can argue that nobody is ready to be president,” and said he, himself, learned a lot in his first year on the job.
Apparently Tyra banks & nutroot magazine Harper’s Bazaar, have decided to try & will an Obama White House into reality. The left is really making a bigger mockery out of the White House & the Office of the Presidency than they did when Bill Clinton was product testing his cigars with Monica Lewinski. Now I think Tyra is generally a nice person, I really do. The problem is Tyra is trying to channel a woman who nobody on earth thinks is as sweet natured as she is, Michelle Obama. Michelle wasn’t proud of her country until it elected her husband into a position of power.
Some Contrast:
“Not just because Barack has done well.” but because:
“Hope=(Barack) is making a comeback.”
“People are Hungry for Change=(Barack).”
Hmm, so obvious.. Michelle O. like Tyra? More like “Tyrant”..
From the NYTimes:
After the Democratic presidential debate in Philadelphia in April, Mr. Obama borrowed a move from the rapper Jay-Z and mimed brushing off his shoulders, but it was Mr. Love who had uploaded his music to the senator’s iPod in the first place — a silver Nano that he bought the senator for his 46th birthday.
“So I’ve gotten pretty fond of Jay-Z,” Mr. Obama said. “He’s broadened my horizons in the hip-hop world.”
____________________________________________________
Wow, first I want to thank the NYTimes for sharing all this great information on Mr. Obama’s affection for yet another person who clearly deeply resents white people. Only in America can you write such racial hate speech, & call it “artwork” & get paid millions of dollars for poisoning the minds of children with racist overtones in your music.
Only in America can you have a whole Mainstream Media system ignore the fact that a Presidential candidate is listening to the music of a racist hate speech writing artist on his IPOD, & continue to tout him as the best thing since sliced bread. (Not white sliced bread of course) I wouldn’t want to offend Mr. Obama, or his new Rap Idol pal Jay-Z.
Think I’m being too harsh? Well let’s have a look at the intro lyrics to Jay-Z’s 2007 album “American Gangster”, & see if you think this is something that should be blaring in the halls of White House next year?
Intro:
“Man I worked for one of the biggest companies in New York City. He didn’t own his own company. White man owned it, so they owned him. Nobody owns me though.”
(Your gangster is not defined)
Your gangster is not defined by how low your jeans fall by your waist, but more how your genes stand over his expectations. Never forget where you came from.
(Your gangster)
Your gangster is not defined by how many rocks are in your watch, but rather how many rocks you move while on your watch.
(Gangsters, hustlers, republicans, democrats, pimps and hoes.)
Conservatives, labor, the seller, the buyer, the product, the producer.
(See you are what you are in this world.)
The gangster is absorbed and adored by those that don’t understand the laws that govern gangsterment.
(Gangsterment)
Gangsterment allows you to make up your own laws and create brand new words.
Gangster mentality.
(Gangster mentality, an American way created by the white, mastered by the black, and absorbed by the fiends, taxed by the governmentality, charted by
forbes. If you believe in Jay-Z then you too can be a gangster.)
The you too can be a gangster by any means necessary. By any means necessary, by owning that dream. I mean it’s a long walk to freedom but, while deep,
deep, deep inside the bush.
(The war on terror screams, damn it feels good)
Damn it feels good to be a gangster.
(To be a gangster swagger is not a must, it’s a liability, a cliche, a bad suit, cut the bullshit. You know if it wasn’t for this, there would be no that.)
Which we call, the American Gangster.
*End of racially charged lyrics*
____________________________________________________
Can you imagine the outrage if we replaced the word “white” in these lyrics with “black” & had Vanilla Ice sing them? Maybe replace “forbes” with “farrakhan”? There would be another L.A. riot!
I’m sure that Mr. Obama will say “That’s not the Jay-Z I knew, or a song I’ve ever listened to.” But that excuse is getting pretty old. Is this the kind of behavior or even thinking Americans want in the highest office of the United States of America?
Keep endorsing the Jay-Z Senator.. It’s probably more in line with your values than you are with the rest of us Americans anyway, otherwise you couldn’t possibly be so “fond of” Jay-Z’s viral & racially charged whining. The arrogance of this man to think he can get away with bringing the “Gangsta Rap” mentality into the White House is almost beyond comprehension.
Check out this video, & how Obama takes two opposing positions on Hip-Hop/Rap at the SAME TIME. Oh, & he says in this video below: “Hip-Hop uses the N-word a little TOO frequently.” Well I’d like to know Mr. Obama, how frequently would you say is ok to use words like “Nigga”, or “Nigger”? Or does that depend on whether you’re Don Imus, Michael Richards, or Jay-Z?
