Conservative talk show host Rush Limbaugh said during his radio program on Wednesday that David Maraniss, the author of a book entitled "Barack Obama: the Story," is “in crisis” because “the right wing” is using his book to point out “all the things in Obama's autobiography which are not true.”

Limbaugh stated that Maraniss is “vetting Obama and doesn't realize it” by “documenting lies and falsehoods, and as far he's concerned, all he's doing is getting the record straight” by “poking holes” in information from the president's book, "Dreams From My Father."

The radio host turned to comments the author made during that morning's Starting Point, a CNN program hosted by Soledad O'Brien:

But the author noted that he almost didn't write the book because he feared that the “right wing” would dismiss the book while “cherry-picking every single negative thing in it to use against Obama.”

Maraniss apologetic for uncovering truths about Obama that contradicts LIES told by The One.

“If this keeps up, Obama may have to throw HIMSELF under the bus.”

Hmmm. There's a recent movie about something like that starring Christian Bale and Huge Ackman, called The Prestige.
