Press goes crazy that we should dare ask "the One" whether he actually wrote his "memoir" without outside help. http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/world/us_and_americas/us_elections/article5063279.ece London is in an uproar, smears our Congressman and Businessman.

Claims conservative attempted to pay a hired gun to find dirt on Obama. Yet "expert" was happy and willing to take the money for the initial analysis. But now trying to claim how abhorrent such a claim is. How transparently hypocritical.

Bottom line. He was unable to say conclusively that Ayers did not ghost write Obama's book. Ha, ha they are on the run scared.

Here is the London Times article: http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2122283/posts

The whole Ayers Obama charge likely started here with the help of Freepers and Jack Cashill.com Yeah, just ask Obama get a denial. Hey big shot professor why don’t you compare Dreams From My Father to Audacity of Hope? Cause they weren’t written by the same people.

“And I insisted that the analysis, once produced, would have to be in the public domain and thus made available to the Democrats also. “

It may not be slow. The Left’s knives have already been sharpened. They have been planning this catastrophe for a long time.

I dont know who wrote Dreams from My Father. But no way do I believe it was Obama.

There was a link somewhere to a paper Obama wrote about community organzing where Obama discussed the problems confronting community organizing.

It is clear that the author of that essay was NOT the same person who wrote Dreams. The writing style in Dreams is clearly far superior to Obama’s community organizing essay, and I am not an expert on writing styles but the difference in style were obvious.

What this shows is that the good professor analysis is actually very conclusive evidence that Obama did not in fact write both “memoirs” Dreams From My Fathers versus Audacity of Hope.

Obama has already set the precedent. Ask the wrong question, probe too deeply, and prepare to be anally examined, ostracized, and destroyed.

I say no to YOU. If we play this right we can get the London Times added to this list:

Obama’s(Hitler) List of Banned Media

1. The NY POST 2. WASHINGTON TIMES 3. DALLAS MORNING NEWS 4. WFTV Television 5. Fox News 6. New Yorker 7. CBS3 8. Others?

Its worth a shot, and it would be the first? foreign press added.

Anyways I remember Prof Donald Foster say the Qualitative analysis an important part of determining authorship.

They are in an uproar because they know that very few public people write their own books, but don’t want the public to lose their willing suspension of disbelief. They almost all hire ghostwriters, or sometimes simply buy a book. Its not much different in other businesses. Elvis didn’t write all his own songs. Kubrick didn’t write all his own movies.

Right now Obama has the power to intimidate, smear and ostracize. He seeks the power to SILENCE, by whatever means necessary.

It will take courage to deal with this fascist.

Khalidi worked on one of his PLO books at Ayers’ dinner table. Ayers is such a hospitable terrorist.

Yup, Cashill quoted a few sentences in one of his articles. Let's just say that if Obama had to write for a living, he'd starve.

And combine all of this with recent posts that NO ONE can remember seeing him at Columbia University — plus the statement by the New Party newspaper that Barack Obama was community organizing in Harlem — and we have a Trojan Horse: a plant by radical forces, groomed FOR YEARS to smile and “look centrist” and infiltrate his way into U.S. politics.

Yes, and right now he is just a lowly Senator posing as a messiah. Can you imagine what he will be able to do with the power of the presidency behind him?

He may soon have almost absolute power.

Nothing really matters ... any more.

Take me where the wind blows.

[Clashing gong.]

Whatever, dude. If people are open minded that Obama might not be a true Christian, then the people who count — the voters — think things like this matter.
