Dinesh D'Souza has drawn a torrent of criticism with a Forbes cover story that accuses President Obama of adopting "the cause of anti-colonialism" from his Kenyan father.
But while most detractors focus on the author--and Newt Gingrich, who embraced the critique--the White House is aiming its ammunition at the business magazine.
"It's a stunning thing, to see a publication you would see in a dentist's office, so lacking in truth and fact," White House press secretary Robert Gibbs says in an interview. "I think it represents a new low."

ping in case you missed this
One Marxist supporting another?
It is both multicultural and diverse.
Dinesh and Forbes released the issue at least a week ago.
Doesnt look like this White House is too quick on the draw.
Thin skin and all
yep and can’t stand the truth!!!!
Racists both of them
Barry - the anticolonial racist
Michelle - the whitey hatin’ wookie.
I am one of those that pay the 70% of taxes. I don’t mind because the tax code is understandable, even though complicated. I don’t even mind my taxes going up 13%, if it will help solve the budget problem. I do mind the change in taxes on capital gains and investment income. This is a chiller for the economy and my company. Capital gains tax will go up 58% and the dividend tax will go up 164%. What is even worse is that there is not even a planned tax for passing on my 50 years of labor to my kids. The tax is 55%. After I pay income tax at 50% (california) and 55% estate tax, my kids get 22 cents on the dollar. With four kids, they each get a nickel.
Who cares? My 35 employees may. I am now considering selling my company to a competitor who will close it down. No incentive any more unless things change. Can you imagine what the employment rate would be at 60% income tax or 70%? You folks may only get a job with the Federal Government—but wait a minute—they need tax revenue to pay you.
For this country to prosper, you must have confidence in your leaders to try their best. This article instills doubt in our leader and I find it believable. My father was a drunk and died when I was eight. I have been trying my whole life to please him.
Going after Forbes?
Ha, it’s popcorn time!
Dinesh scored a direct hit on the ss obama.
Sorry 'bout that.
Thanks for the kind words...
You do great work Fred . It is appreciated.
I know an obscenity when I see it. LOL!
Print media is still powerful and should remain powerful. It can be accessed by anyone at any hour. It is persistent. It is archivable. It can't be "scrubbed."
Print media is historic.
Long live print media!
Forbes must be right over the target.
Freedom of the Press baby!

D’Souza’s article is a phenomenal read. Well worth the time.
Look eee here:

Should read instead: “I HATE THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA”!!!
