I say let him, because he’s right, as many others were. Stanley Kurtz in National Review this morning says pretty much the same thing, for pretty much the same reason:

Over at Hot Air, Ed Morrissey suggested that, “…bullying people through the Department of Justice as a candidate will cause reasonable people to wonder what will happen if Obama gets elected.”

Powerline’s John Hinderaker’s remarks seem pertinent today: “If Obama is elected President, will he appoint an Attorney General who will carry out politically-motivated prosecutions like the one he is now demanding?

Ed Morrissey suggested that, for their own sake, national media ought to stop ignoring Obama’s assaults on the press: “Maybe other journalists should take heed. If Obama becomes president and they commit the crime of Journalism in the First Degree, how will these same people react with the full weight of the federal government behind them? If they stoop to character assassination now, what will they do when they have much more powerful tools at their disposal?”

The national media can’t help themselves. They are addicted to the leftist bias just as much as a crack head is addicted to his next fix. Even when they appear to be pointing out a few of the “o’s” character flaws they’re positions in a manner to make it go away.

When the station refused to cancel my appearance, it was deluged with calls from Obama supporters acting on instructions from his campaign. They demanded that I be kept off the air.
A few weeks later, on September 15, a flood of callers, again egged on by the Obama campaign, demanded that David Freddoso, then my colleague at National Review, be barred from discussing his just-published biography of Obama on the Rosenberg show.

It would be educational to determine whether these progressive pressure groups working for the Obama campaign were 501(C3) or 501(C4)organizations, and if any were investigated by the Justice Department, the IRS, and whether they got dozens of pages of illegal questions in the original applications or renewal of their tax status.

Illegalities Predicted

Thank you for that great link!
It's amazing how few made note, at the time, of the ugly criminal, corrupt cloud over the horizon.
