The current ad discussing the relationship of Barack Obama to unrepentant terrorist William Ayers is really striking a nerve with the Obama camp. So much so that, in true communist fashion, the Obama campaign is attempting to crush the right of free speech to keep the ad from airing by threatening the media outlets that run the ad.
This is an absolutely chilling development, and portends a future Obama administration where the media is tightly controlled and freedom of speech is restricted. Say hello to Barack "Hugo Chavez" Obama!
As frightening as this development is, it is an opportunity that the McCain campaign must seize upon NOW! Just as Obama played the race card, he's now attempting to play the media control card, thus giving the McCain camp cover to hit the Ayers issue with all barrels blazing!!! Here's my proposed 10 second spot for McCain:
"There must be something suspicious about Barack Obama's relationship with unrepentant terrorist William Ayers that he doesn't us to know. He has sent out a team to threaten and silence an ad on this subject that was developed by a legitimate and independent political organization. Now we're asking the question, "just what is so damning about your relationship with William Ayers that you would threaten the free speech of others to prevent it from airing? We will not be silenced, Senator Obama." I'm John McCain and I approve this message."
Obama has opened the door, let's drive a freight train through it! Fine-tuning of this ad is humbly and graciously accepted!
“Freedom of speech still exists in America - at least for now.” Perhaps insert those words right after “we will not be silenced.”
“...that he doesn’t us to know...”
Shud read ...that he dosn’t want us to know...
Of course, I’m just guessing that is what you intended to say!
Please site the source of this development. Where can I read about Obama’s henchmen bringing suit in court to remove the ads or put pressure on the “media” to stop playing them?
Look on the front page of Drudge.
The question I raise in my website http://www.theusmat.com/ is what type of projects did Ayers and Obama propose and fund when Obama was on that Annenberg Challenge exec board ?
(Say hello to Barack “Hugo Chavez” Obama!)
Wow. I think you tagged it. On reflection there certainly seems to be a kindred spirit in these 2 men.
That and the NAALCP ran that ad about Bush being responsible for the dragging death of James Byrd.
Everyone should visit http://www.americanissuesproject.com and register.
Now we’re asking the question, what is so alarming about exposing Obama’s long-time connection to a former terrorist who he has described as “respectable” and “mainstream”? Why is Senator Obama threatening the free speech of others? And what other relationships does Obama not want you to know about? I’m John McCain....
it is a chilling development when a national candidate advocates fascism.
This isn’t a McCain ad. It’s by a 527 organization. There is nothing McCain did to create it and there is nothing he can do to stop it. Fine to praise and discuss the ad, but it is false to say “McCain ad”.
He claims the ad is false and misleading, but from what i heard of it, its all fact and not supposition
I can't give you a link to a source but they didn't just threaten the media outlets Obama's minions have asked the Justice Department to stop at least one ad! Nice, huh? There was a thread on it last night. The one group has sent letters to the media outlets running the Ayers ad, the answer they received was that what they(the media outlets) were doing is perfectly legal and they will continue to run the ad, Rush has a link to the ad BTW. The group is called Free History. What a name for a communist group, huh?
