'2016: Obama's America' filmmaker--I am not having an affair
fox news ^ | october 17, 2012 | Dinesh D'Souza

Posted on 10/18/2012 5:13:46 AM PDT by lowbridge

A recent article in World magazine gives the false impression that I, a married man, had an affair with a woman Denise Joseph at a Christian conference in Charlotte, N.C. The article alleges that I shared a hotel room with her and introduced her as my fiancé. Finally it states that I filed for divorce only on the day I was confronted about my conduct by intrepid reporter Warren Smith. Here are the facts:

1. My wife Dixie and I have been separated for two years. Dixie approached me and demanded this [a separation] before I came to King’s College to become its president in late August 2010. I informed the chairman of the college about this at the time. I also informed the reporter who wrote the World article, Warren Smith, but he deliberately left it out of his piece, even though it is entirely relevant to the context.

2. I met Denise three months ago. We are not and have not been having an affair. Nor did we share a hotel room in Charlotte. Smith did not even ask me about this. Instead, Smith apparently deployed conference organizer Alex McFarland to call and raise the issue with me.

I clearly told McFarland that Denise and I stayed in separate rooms. McFarland knew he didn’t have what he wanted, because he subsequently called me back and asked me again. I realized McFarland may be fronting for Smith, so I told him I didn’t have any further comment. I’m not sure whether McFarland is lying or Smith is lying, but one of them made up the quotation attributed to me that we stayed in the same room but “nothing happened.” This is pure libel.

The left share many traits with radical Islam, including justifying the telling of lies in order to push their agenda.

Seems like a pretty straightforward answer.

Saul Alinsky’s disciples in Chicago always discredited Obama’s opponents by character assassination. He is definitely a post turtle for the Communist movement in America.

Conservatives should be wise to these tactics by now and not over-react by throwing good men under the bus when these attacks are made by the Left and published by their media enablers.

“Film must have hit a nerve with someone.”

That might be the understatement of the year.

OK, I accept all these explanations, and the writer is a jerk with a vendetta. But getting engaged to someone you’ve only known for three months while you’re still technically married is very unwise. And tacky in the extreme. Being surprised that other Christians are taken aback by this is naive.

Alrighty then, I interviewed 0b0z0 and found out that, according to this picture, 0h0m0 stayed with Gibbs and Axelrod in the same conference room for a threesome.

0h0m0 said “nothing happened” and that s/he is already seperated from Reggie.

There was no mention of the Wookie.

How do you like them apples, commies?

The victim of a common double standard. Affairs and sexual immorality are resume enhancers with liberals, but a conservative is called upon to defend his reputation in painful detail.

Yeah, the wounded naif act is a little weak. I wouldn't be surprised if he also claims to have no idea why his wife wanted a separation.

Since politics is now a 24/7 blood sport, the reporter and the editor should now be investigated and attacked legally and in the media wherever possible.

“OK, I accept all these explanations”

I don’t. As a Chrisian you promise till death do us part. No where do you say unless I decide to change my mind. Couples under extreme circumstances may seperate but that does not allow them to marry another person. I speak from experience.

Just curious, how would you react/respond if it were you?

Ignore it and let the charges stand unanswered?

Respond like he did and be accused of acting like a “wounded naif?”

Seriously, how would you have him handle it?

Your opinion concerning this story is very interesting. Why do you characterize the response as a “naif act”? I don't see any anything naive about his response whatsoever. Why would you go on to say that he might also claim “to have no idea why his wife wanted a separation”? Are you suggesting infidelity? Do you claim that it's impossible for a married man to go through a divorce without ever hearing a reason except for irreconcilable differences?

Yep, liberals seem to be consumed with sex. Remember how Obama got his Senate seat, accusing his opponent of kinky sex. Wonder why liberals are so concerned about the sexual activities of their opponents? Could it be they have a “problem”? Or maybe they are just channeling their inner Clinton.

Are you suggesting that Christianity forbids divorce?
