Re: “ This looks like the post of someone who doesn’t like Obama, and wanted to see how long his team would leave the post up.

The fact that his team may have, and in this instance probably did, leave the post up too long is problematic in and of itself. I am not convinced this is the post of someone who supports Obama or actually wants Jews thrown in ovens.”

This one admittedly went under the bus more quickly than the others I have seen, but it is quite likely that Obama’s staff saw it at WorldNetDaily. Other material about the “Jewish Lobby” remained online for more than half a year.

If this were the only example of hate speech, or even one of but a few, I would be inclined to agree that these are just trolls and agents provacateur. The problem is that there are dozens or even more of these at my.barackobama.com.

Just for argument’s sake, would you honestly think a man who wanted to be President would approve of leaving this stuff up for the public to view? It might appeal to some people, but it would alienate far more.

If you told me his organization was so poorly run that there wasn’t an adequate enough crew to police this stuff, I’d agree. In fact I think that would be a very negative thing to have aired in public, the fact that his organization was so inept.

As I said, you folks may be on to something that sails right over my head, but I don’t buy into the idea he wants to see Jews rounded up and destroyed.

That being said, you couldn’t have caught me sitting in that pew listening to Wright for decades.

There are plenty of trolls and agents provocateurs in the world. Personally, I'm getting tired of seeing their stupid posts copied over to FR. For all I know, you posted this garbage there yourself, just so you could re-post it on FR and claim it tells us something about Obama. Assuming you didn't, you're certainly doing exactly what the authors of the garbage want people to do with it.
