They claim that Corsi said that “Christopher Hitchens noted on Salon.com that Michelle announces in her Princeton thesis that she has been influenced by the definition of ‘black separatism’ given by Stokely Carmichael and Charles Hamilton in their 1867 book Black Power: The Politics of Liberation in America.” Smears quoting her writings says that Michelle said that they just "guided me".

I have read the passage in question. Smears is spinning out of control. Corsi's interpretation is far more reasonable. Michelle sounds as though Carmichael had indeed influenced her.

They claim that Corsi said that Writing about “Born Alive” legislation: “Not wanting to be the only Illinois state senator to vote against the bill, a move that Obama realized would be politically unpopular with his constituency, he took the easy way our and voted ‘Present.’ Smears counters by saying: Oh, yeah? Well here's others who voted that way. So there!

The real issue with the Born Alive legislation is that Obama keeps insisting he voted against the bill because it lacked the clause in the federal legislation assuring that it would have no impact on Roe. It's a big lie; that was amended in and he still voted no. Here are the federal and Illinois bills side by side:

Obama's Latest Lie: Born Alive Bill

They claim that Corsi said that “He has pledged to reduce the size of the military and stop spending money on expensive new military systems, so we can redirect the savings to social welfare spending.” Smears prints several Obama quotes saying the there will be a needed to spend more because of our "depleted" forces caused by the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. (My comments: I've heard audio of him naming massive cuts in R&D, weapons, and more.)

I have posted the 52 second clip of him promising to decimate our military many times. What clowns these people are.

They claim that Corsi said that “He has been endorsed by Hamas and had to fire a Middle Eastern adviser who had been privately meeting with Hamas.” Smears quotes a MSM employee stating that the extreme Hamas faction did not endorse.

You mean only the moderate Hamas faction endorsed him?

LOL. These people are losing it.

P.S. Since my post yesterday I have come across a couple of references that indicate that Rezko found the house first. I had previously read that Michelle learned of it from her position on the Historic Preservation Board. So I think the point is that whatever the truth is, this was not sloppy work. There is documentation to support either claim.

I heard a live interview with Corsi tonight (Sunday). He is going to make up a list of items and ask Smears why they did not mention those items. I think I am remembering correctly -- also I think he said he'd address the items in Smears' post (which I have copied to here).

It should all be on World Net Daily this week.
