And here is the Jack Cashill article in question. It insinuates that Anderson had no valid sources and appears to have exercised his own creative license in articulating events.
"In his fair-minded biography, Barack and Michelle: Portrait of an American Marriage, Christopher Andersen concedes, "There were certainly no witnesses -- no family members were present; and none of their friends at the university had the slightest inkling they were even engaged." "
Here is a subsequent Jack Cashill article in which he reiterates the point.
Hey, DL, not so fast! I’m playing with this one. I’ve got him in the blender, but I haven’t hit, ‘frappe,’ yet. ;)
I know that Anderson made the statement with zero backup, zero evidence, zero witnesses, zero corroboration, and zero credibility. I just wanted to break it to my desperate, grasping-at-straws friend by stages. It’s more entertaining that way.
Wjd, leave Cashill out of it. You’re the one who brought up Anderson as a source. Well Anderson said he was told by two different Chicago-based friends of the Obamas that Barack didn’t write Dreams—that in fact Ayers wrote it lock, stock and barrel. Haha—according to your own source, Obama is a talentless weasel who has spent ~two decades basking in stolen glory.
I.e.: he’s a lying conman.
But oh well, you can’t win em all.
