The same publisher that distributed the 2004 best-seller that took aim at John Kerry’s Vietnam service is planning a summer release of what’s scheduled to be the first critical book on Barack Obama. Conservative journalist David Freddoso’s “The Case Against Barack Obama” will offer “a comprehensive, factual look at Obama,” according to Regnery Publishing president and publisher Marjory Ross. But the book’s subtitle makes clear its perspective: “The Unlikely Rise and Unexamined Agenda of the Media’s Favorite Candidate.” Ross contends that the mainstream media has offered insufficient scrutiny of Obama and likens the goal of Freddoso’s book to that of “Unfit for Command,” the scathing assessment of Kerry’s war record that rocketed to No. 1 on The New York Times best-seller list. By highlighting negative aspects of Obama’s record and background, Ross says, Freddoso may compel others to offer more critical coverage of the Democratic nominee. “I think it’s critically important that the country gets a clear and honest view of who is running and what they stand for — warts and all,” Ross says. “With ‘Unfit for Command,’ like ‘The Case against Barack Obama,’ we believe the media has whitewashed the candidate.” But unlike the Kerry book, which was co-authored by a fellow Swift Boat veteran and focused exclusively on the Massachusetts senator’s actions in Vietnam and immediately after, “The Case Against Barack Obama” aspires to be a full-length political biography. Freddoso has taken a leave from his job with National Review Online — where he has written posts with titles such as “Obama’s Problem with the Truth” — to write the book, which is scheduled to be published on Aug. 4.

Whats to tarnish? his real image is a far left radical socialist that the media handles with Johnson's baby powder...
What reforms has Obama accomplished????? I have initiated as many reforms as Obama.
What reforms has Obama accomplished????? I have initiated as many reforms as Obama.
He’s going to reform your wallet of all its money...
Eventually voters are going to believe 'where there's smoke there's fire'.
ruh roh..... I think this book is going to cause the race card to be used.
It’s unreal how this guy can be even considered for POTUS.
What in hell is the left trying to do to this country? Chop it off at the knees?
Nice page. Add one:
“We will NOT keep our military up to date”.
The Obama candidacy IS the race card.
Under an Obama administration, I believe your sentence will be considered a hate crime. Please turn yourself in promptly.... thank you.
Just look at all of the "Change" that Obummer has brought to the utopian state of Illinois.
Me too! I quit smoking twice. That should qualify me to run as surgeon general I would think.
“I think this book is going to cause the race card to be used”....
The left thinks any charges against him of incompetents can be met with charges of racisim. I think when Democratic voters take a hard look at him, a different conclusion will be reached compared to the crappola the media is pushing.
I'll bet the Obama people will see even this as a racist comment! They will use the race card to deflect all negative comments about him. Personally, I find Obama to be an articulate, educated, economic idiot and I'd say the same of any white person who holds the same economic beliefs.
“What reforms has Obama accomplished????? “
That could be a 200-page book (with 200 empty pages).
“The Case Against Barack Obama” = “The Audacity of a Dope”
IMO, there’s enough to expose about Osama Hussein Obama, the terrorist-endorsed Messiah, and his Marxist, racist, antisemitic wife to publish a book hourly through November. If the American people are moronic enough to elect a “Marxist Dictator,” one would have to conclude that they deserve what they get. The rest of us have to suffer as do our children and grandchildren. This is no game and the stakes are our very lives. To preserve our future, the entire US Congress needs to be voted out!
“I’d say the same of any white person who holds the same economic beliefs.”....
Exactly, how many times do conservatives have to tell the morons on the left that it’s his politics and NOT skin color that bothers the hell out of us? They go OH NO NO No!!!!...It’s racism!
He knows nothing, he has done nothing, and he is a perfect example of a moonbat.
What’s not to like????
I wish there were term limits on congress. Then, make senators and reps, live under the laws they passed while elected.
